Once My Only, Now Just a Memory Chapter 07

Brielle subbed hysterically. “The Pack Enforcement officers came to the company to arrest me!”

“I almost died in that fire myself! How could I possibly be the arsonist?”

She fell to her knees before my bed. “I beg you, please don’t ruin my life!”

“Brielle, what are you doing?” Cillian’s brow furrowed deep. He pulled her up from the floor and into his

arms.

Brielle wept against his chest. “Don’t ask me. Ask her!”

Cillian looked at me.

I met his gaze directly. “Yes, I reported her.”

“Before the fire started, she locked me in and told me to watch who you would choose. It is only logical that I

suspect her.”

Cillian’s first reaction was not anger, but a sudden, stunned silence.

In the past, I had always gone to him for everything.

Because I had believed he would protect me.

Now, I had bypassed him entirely and contacted Pack Enforcement directly.

When had he stopped being my first choice?

Brielle’s cries interrupted his thoughts.

“I didn’t do it! She is lying!”

“Cillian, are you just going to let her torment me? Fine, I won’t love you anymore. I will abort the baby

tomorrow!”

Cillian’s face hardened. “Don’t speak nonsense!”

When he looked back at me, his golden eyes were colder than ice. “Flora, apologize.”

I knew he wouldn’t believe me, but his coldness still sent a sharp ache through my chest.

I stared back at him without flinching. “When the investigation is complete, if she is innocent, I will apologize.”

He let out a dark laugh.

“I told you last time was your final warning.”

“I will not indulge you this time.”,

Rage burned in my throat.

“I don’t need your indulgence! We are ending our Mate Bond anyway!”

“How dare you say that again!” Cillian stood up abruptly. “It seems I have indeed spoiled you too much.”

He signaled to the Pack guards standing outside. “From this moment, you follow Brielle’s orders.”

“Whatever she demands for an apology, you will do.”

“I don’t care.”

With that, he slammed the dobr and left.

Brielle’s tears vanished instantly, replaced by a triumphant, malicious sneer.

She looked at me lying helpless on the bed. “Go ahead. Ruin her face.”

“I want to see if Cillian will still want you when you are a monster.”

My body went rigid, but I tried to keep my voice steady. “Brielle, are you insane?”

“Cillian only wants me to submit. He never gave you permission to do this!”
