(Selene’s POV)
“Ugh, damn it!”
I woke up feeling sore all over as if I had been beaten. Last night, I had an intense night with Lucian after so long without being with Dexton.
My desire had surged when Lucian proved how much he wanted me. I could even feel his emotions toward me.
Never before had I felt such raw passion—not even with Dexton. What surprised me even more was that I had actually reached my peak with Lucian, as if he were an expert who knew exactly where to touch me.
His lips and tongue made me feel as if I were soaring through the sky without ever falling. My heartbeat, which was usually steady, pounded wildly whenever I was with him as if I were in a high-speed horse race.
It made me wonder—had he treated his former wife the same way? If so, then she was the luckiest woman in the world after me.
I just didn’t understand—why now? Why did I meet him only now?
Lost in my thoughts about last night, I suddenly realised that Lucian was no longer beside me.
I sat up slightly, glancing left and right, but there was no trace of his clothes anywhere.
“Lucian?” I called his name, and a wave of panic rushed over me.
A terrible thought invaded my mind—what if Lucian only wanted me for one night? What if he had simply used me and left?
Even though he had shown me just how much he desired me last night, the fact that he wasn’t here now was enough to throw me into turmoil.
“What if, in the end, he’s no different from Dexton? After all, they are father and son—history could repeat itself, couldn’t it?”
I quickly shook my head, trying to chase away the dark thoughts that threatened to consume me.
“Maybe he’s just busy. Maybe that’s why he hasn’t sent me a message.”
I tried to calm myself because I didn’t want to let my heart break so easily.
BANG!
The bedroom door suddenly swung open, making me jolt in shock. I was still completely naked.
Instinctively, I grabbed the blanket and pulled it over my body. My shock quickly turned into anger when I saw the person who had barged in so recklessly.
It was my ex-husband. My former mate.
Dexton.
“What the hell are you doing here?! How did you even get in?!”
His eyes burned with hatred as he glared at me.
“You’re nothing but a filthy slut! Are you satisfied now? Sleeping with your ex-father-in-law? Disgusting!”
My heart pounded violently in my chest, feeling humiliated by his cruel words.
“Look at you! You’re still naked! You must have really enjoyed my father’s c**k!”
His words sliced through me like a sharp knife, reopening wounds I had worked so hard to heal, and then cutting even deeper.
It was never enough for him—hurting me over and over again. Now, it was his words that did the damage.
But I refused to let him see my pain. If I showed him even a flicker of emotion, he would think he had won.
“Watch your mouth, Dexton! I am your future stepmother, and you should show me respect!” I spat back, aiming straight for his pride.
His eyes widened in shock. I knew his personality well, and I had just struck a nerve.
“You’re nothing but a filthy she-wolf! You should be the one watching your mouth! I think you need to be taught a lesson!”
His rage erupted as he lunged toward me. I tried to move away, but he grabbed my ankle and yanked me down, pinning my naked body beneath him.
His eyes gleamed like a rabid wolf, filled with anger and something darker—something mixed with lust.
“Let go of me, Dexton!” I struggled, trying to free my wrists from his iron grip.
“You think you can just say things like that and walk away? I’ll teach you a lesson on how to speak properly, Selene!”
Dexton crushed his lips against mine in a forceful, punishing kiss. I turned my head, trying desperately to evade him, but he seized my jaw, forcing me to endure his assault.
His lips bruised mine as he bit and sucked, making my skin sting with pain.
“Let me go!” I screamed, but he was too strong.
Tears spilled from my eyes as fear tightened its grip around my chest. Dexton was being brutal.
“Am I more excited than my father? A slut like you should prefer someone young like me, not an old man like him!”
I couldn’t find the words to respond. His mouth trailed lower, and I felt utterly defiled. I hated him—hated him with every fibre of my being!
“I won’t let anyone else have you, Selene. Especially not my father!”
Even though I felt weak, I thrashed beneath him, refusing to give in.
“NO!”
Dexton’s mouth found my neck, sucking hard enough to leave a mark.
“Please, don’t!” I pleaded, my voice trembling.
“Why?” He smirked wickedly, his eyes gleaming with twisted satisfaction. “Are you afraid my father will see you as the filthy she-wolf you are?”
He resumed his assault, his hands squeezing my breasts while his mouth moved lower, biting and marking me again.
He was really going to r**e me. If I didn’t save myself now, he would force himself on me.
“You bastard! You’re the worst man I’ve ever met!” I spat at him.
“Oh yeah? Keep cursing me, Selene. You know that only makes me want you more.”
The lust in his eyes was undeniable. He was truly aroused by my defiance.
I tried to crawl away after shoving him off, but Dexton caught me again, forcing me back under him.
“Don’t you remember how rough our nights used to be, my ex-mate?” he taunted, grinning wildly.
“You disgust me!”
“NO, YOU DISGUST ME!” he roared, making me flinch. “If you hadn’t gone crawling to my father, I wouldn’t be like this!”
I swallowed hard, determined to hold onto the last shred of my dignity, even as I felt utterly tainted. I had to hurt Dexton's back.
“Isn’t it pathetic that you chose to be with an Omega—a weak, powerless fool? You’ve thrown away your own worth by settling for someone like her, my dear stepson.”
His fury deepened. I had struck him where it hurt the most.
And just then, Harper burst into the room, shoving Dexton off me with brute force.
Harper turned to me, his eyes filled with concern as he stepped closer.
“I’m sorry I was late.”
