“Congrattions, Alpha,” I said, forcing a grin. “Your future Luna is clearly devoted to you. Don’t forget to send me an invitation to the mating ceremony.”
I stared at Alpha Henry, trying–and failing–to smother the sour taste of jealousy crawling up my throat.
Henry cast me a disapproving nce. “Since you know Aubrey is mine, I suggest you keep your distance. Breaking into her home today–don’t let it happen again. I trust you understand what I mean.
My face darkened instantly. The fake smile nearly slipped.
I bit out, “Rx. I came here for my brother. I have zero interest in some Omega.”
“Let’s keep it that way,” Henry said curtly, then turned and walked off.
I stormed away, teeth gritted. So that’s how it is–these two really were made to drive me insane.
Aubrey’s POV
Hearing that Alpha Henry had shown up too, I couldn’t help butugh. What was today, exactly? Was everyone just dropping in uninvited?
“What are you doing here?” I asked with a touch of irritation.
He looked around with his usual cold expression and said, “Heard you moved out. I came to see where you’re living.”
His eyes scanned the apartment and he sniffed. “Too small.”
That judgmental tone, like he was touring a slum, made me roll my eyes. We weren’t living together–why did he care?
“Alpha, if you’ve got something to say, then say it. We’re not close enough to be making small talk, are we?”
He frowned, and for a second, I saw a crack in that alwaysposed face.
“You’re my fiancée. Of course we’re close. Or… are you implying something?”
I looked up, deadpan. Was it me, or had the world gone mad? Alpha Henry was acting stranger by the day.
“Did you forget I called off the engagement?” I reminded him sharply.
He stepped closer, a smile flickering at the corners of his lips. “Cut it out, Aubrey. I heard everything just
now.”
He coughed into his hand to hide augh, then added smugly, “Unwavering love‘? I had no idea you were this devoted.”
I stared at him. Seriously?
So he actually believed what I’d said to shut Mateo up?
“I need to make something clear,” I said firmly. “Our engagement is over. I only want to be adopted into the

Miguel family, nothing else. I used your name carlier because it was convenient–your reputation works. If you don’t like it, I won’t say it again.”
Henry’s POV
For a moment, I almost believed her.
Almost.
But Callen’s voice thundered in my head. “Only a fool would believe her. She loved you for over a decade- like hell that just vanished overnight!”
Damn right.
I narrowed my eyes at her, letting a sly grin tug at my lips. “So you’re still mad about the broken engagement? There’s no need. It was never made public–nothing’s set in stone. We could always… revisit the idea.”
And besides, wasn’t bing part of the Miguel family her way of getting closer to me?
But her face darkened, and she said each word slowly and clearly, like she wanted to carve them into stone. “I don’t love you anymore.”
I stepped in, cornering her against the wall. “Don’t love me? You said you did for eleven years. All of that just… disappeared?”
I leaned in, eyes locked on hers.
“If you don’t love me, why do you keep kissing me?”
And teasing me. And pulling me back in every time I try to walk away.
One hand braced against the wall, trapping her in. My voice dropped to a low growl.
“If you don’t love me, then why tell Mateo that nonsense? What’s so hard about admitting how you feel? I want you, Aubrey. Right now. Are you really going to pass up a chance like this?”
I’d thought about it long and hard. It was time to stop lying to myself.
Aubrey was my first. I couldn’t resist her. In simple terms. I desired her. That’s what it was.
I want her. And I’m done pretending otherwise.
