<b>Chapter </b><b>97 </b><b>No </b>More Bending
<b>Aubrey’s </b><b>POV </b>
<b>The </b>moment Mr. Lynn’s cold gaze swept toward me, Hudson Lynn
the idiot who’d just spent 4.8 billion
on worthlessnd and was still proud of himself smashed his wine ss in a sudden rage. Amber <b>liquid </b>sttered across his polished shoes, dark and foul–smelling like spoiled blood.
“Aubrey, what kind of attitude is that?!” he roared, the vein in his temple bulging. “You’re a college student<b>, </b>aren’t you? Don’t you even have the most basic manners?!”
“Your mother died young. If it weren’t for my sister Aurelia’s kindness, taking you in and raising you, do <b><i>you </i></b>really think an omega like you would’ve survived this long without ending up on the street?”
He red at me, his beta presence pressing down hard. “Bet you didn’t know your grandfather was exiled from the royal court formitting a crime. A family that crossed the royals? No decent werewolf would touch you with a ten–foot pole. If your pathetic father hadn’t gotten drunk and knocked up my sister, our family never would’ve let her choose him as her mate!”
“A lowly gamma. Aplete failure! Oh, and let’s not forget; brainless too! Five years ago, your dad’s shop was on the verge of copse. If Aurelia hadn’te begging me, who the hell would’ve helped that idiot? She’s poured her heart and soul into your mess of a life, and you still have the nerve to scheme against her? It’s disgusting!”
He spat the usations out in rapid–fire, barely pausing for breath.
And just like that, the humiliation came flooding back. Every visit to the Lynn family was the same<b>: </b>they’d gang up on me and my father, spit on us like we were dirt beneath their feet. It was all too familiar.

Aurelia! You
round! If it
“Exactly!” Hudson’s mate – her face so overfilled with fillers that evenyers of Botox couldn’t smooth the creases immediately chimed in. “Everything you eat, everything you wear, it’s all tha really think your father’s anything special? He ran your grandfather’s legacy straight into weren’t for Aurelia, if it weren’t for our Lynn family, you’d be living in the gutter!”
The message was clear: to them, I was just a mutt the Lynn family happened to feed. mujt the Lynn family happened to feed.
In the past, their insults would’ve broken me – shamed me into sobbing apologies. But today?
Today, wouldn’t shed a single tear.
I lifted my chin and swept my gaze across the room full of snarling, preening jackals. All I felt was disgust… – and a cold, burning contempt.
If there were an award for shamelessness and hypocrisy across the entire continent, the Lynn family wouldn’t just win – they’d sweep the category.
My father, a gamma, had forced himself on a beta like Aurelia? The idea wasughable. That’s like saying a rabbit assaulted a fox.
Our near–bankruptcy?
Who caused it? The Lynn family.
They found out my grandfather had hidden a stash of rare medicinal serums deep in the forest – a location only my father and I knew. So they schemed to push our family to the brink, staged a desperate crisis, and had Aurelia swoop in with “help,” buying those priceless vials from my father in his moment of

<b>But </b><b>they </b><b>were </b>disappointed. <b>No </b>matter how valuable the potions were, they hadn’t done a thing to improve <b>the </b><b>Lynn </b>family’s werewolf bloodline.
And Hudson? Why was he always so quick to defend Aurelia?
Even worse because he’d slept with his own half–sister.
Rotten to the core, yet still pretending to stand on the high ground of righteousness?
I couldn’t find a word foul enough to describe this family. And I’d never forget how sick I felt in my <bst </b><b>life </b>when I learned the truth.
“Are you done?”
My voice was calm slow and deliberate so that every syble rang out clear.
“You people are the most shameless, most disgusting, most revolting werewolves I have ever met.”
