Rejecting the Alpha Who Betrayed Me

Synopsis

Being taken home from the local police station by Alpha Jordan Brown, I announced my decision to sever our mate bond. "Judith, you can’t keep acting on a whim," he said, his alpha tone cutting through the silence. I watched Jordan as he focused on driving, his broad shoulders tense, his grip firm on the steering wheel. Suddenly, I laughed, the sound bitter and hollow. "I’ve made up my mind." "Alpha Jordan," I turned my head, my gaze steady despite the storm inside me, "It’s time we set each other free." The Bentley came to a halt by the roadside, and the tension in the car thickened, his alpha aura pressing against me like a weight. "Why?" His voice was cold, detached, but I could feel the faint tremor beneath it. "Give me a reason. What’s this about now?" Looking at him, it all seemed pointless. Lowering the car window, I pointed to the side mirror at the car that had been discreetly following us. "I bet you, within ten seconds," I said, my voice calm but edged with bitterness, "someone will be here for you." I began counting down with certainty.
