Mighty Female Alpha, Fearless of Betrayal Chapter 07

“Those aren’t what they look like. She manipulated me. She came after me, she threatened me. You’re the one I love. 

You’ve always been the only one.” 

“She threatened you into the baby swap too? She held a 

knife to your throat while you helped plan it?” 

“Ethan. A real father doesn’t use his own child as a chess 

piece. What you two did, you’re not even in the same 

category as an animal.” 

He shuddered all the way through. Opened his mouth. I 

didn’t let him get a word out. 

“You came for my family’s money. You came for my rank. You 

did everything you could to destroy me, and you used an 

innocent pup to do it. You think the Moon Goddess doesn’t 

see that?” 

Ethan collapsed against the pavement, gray–faced, nothing 

left to say. 

His hands shook as he signed. 

But neither of them was finished. 

Three days later, they went live on WolfNet, the private 

streaming channel that runs across every pack in the 

country. 

Vivian appeared on camera with her face still swollen and 

wan, tears streaming before she even spoke. 

“Aurora doesn’t see people like us as real. She uses her Alpha title like a weapon. She’s been making my life miserable 

since the day I got close to her pack.” 

“I was carrying ten pups. Ten. And she showed up screaming at me while I was already on the edge. I went into early 

labor because of her. I lost all of them.” 

She pressed her hands to her face, voice dissolving into 

sobs. 

“My babies. I’m so sorry. Mama couldn’t protect you.” 

Ethan sat beside her, jaw tight, eyes red. 

“I wasn’t enough to shield her. Aurora’s had other wolves on 

the side for years. I put up with it because I thought the 

bond meant something to her. I was wrong.” 

They sold it perfectly. The grief looked real. The outrage 

looked earned. 

Comments detonated across the stream. 

“Money doesn’t buy class. Poor girl.” 

“Which pack is this? Name her. Alphas like that need to be 

voted out.” 

#AlphaAurora hit the top of WolfNet trending within the hour. 

Someone dug up photos of me during a normal guarded outing and edited them into something unrecognizable. Suddenly I was spotted with multiple unknown males. 

Right. Because an Alpha traveling with her security detail is front–page scandal. 

The wave hit hard. My family’s pack–affiliated business 

holdings dropped back–to–back. The market cap bled out 

tens of millions overnight. 

The Alpha King’s office reached out. They wanted the situation contained before it spread further. 

Then Ethan showed up at my estate. 

He stood at the back entrance like he still had a right to be 

there, chin up, arms crossed. Asked to see me. 

I came out. He looked me over slowly, eyes dragging from my face down and back up, with that mix of hunger and entitlement that made me want to put him through the wall. 

We’d severed the mate bond. But the echo of it was still. 

there, a residual pull that didn’t know the bond was gone. 

I’d kept up my regimen through the pregnancy. Yoga, 

walking, nutrition. Aside from the visible bump, I looked 

stronger than I had before. 

He smiled like he thought that was for him. 

“Here’s what I’m offering. One hundred million dollars and 

one night with you, and I go live tomorrow to clear your 

name. I’ll walk back everything.” 

“Otherwise? I keep feeding the fire until your businesses 

crater and the council strips your title.” 

I almost laughed in his face. “Keep dreaming.”
