LILIANA SPENCER
“Let's Divorce.” His words gave a whack on my heart with a thorny lash. There were no emotions in his eyes when he said those painful words to me.My heart clenched painfully making it hard for me to breathe. The tears that were forming in my eyes fell helplessly.“Is it…. because of Gi….Gianna?” My voice broke down even though I was holding my fist in a firm grip to stop myself from breaking down.“It's nothing like that. It's good for both of us. We both are tied in a meaningless relationship. A relationship cannot survive with one-sided efforts. You have been trying your best to save our marriage life. When I could not move on from my past. You deserve better, Lily. I don't want you to suffer anymore.”I kept silent. My heart was fragile and breakable, yet he still had the guts to tear my worth apart. How can he be sure, I will be happy away from him? I was happy thinking that he was beside me even though he didn't love me.I opened my mouth to say something but closed the next moment when he pulled out some papers from his bag and extended the papers on the table towards me. When I saw his signature clearly written on the paper, my heart cracked in an instant. The thread of my last hope also broke with that. I felt like my heart was bleeding inside my chest.“You’ll get three more villas. You can also keep your favorite car and I’ll give you fifty million dollars.” Zade gestured to the contract with his long index finger on which was a meaningful ring that had remained on that finger for four years. My eyes stung momentarily.“I don't want anything. I only want you, Zade.” I said with no voice staring at him hopefully with my tearful eyes.“I've made up my mind, Lily. Please. I'm tired of living a fake happy life. I can’t continue living my life like this. Back then I was forced to make you my Luna. But now as Dad is no more, there is no need to continue this fake marriage. I know we are fated mates. But I don't believe that we will be happy with our fated mate. We have tried but nothing worked. So It's better we part ways. I hope you find someone else who will love you the way you deserve.”He had let go a long time ago, it is time for me to do the same. It's foolish to wait for where there is no hope. And It is foolish to walk on a path that has no destination.“You have three days to think it over. But don't keep me waiting. My patience has its limits.” Saying that he stood up to leave.“Wait.” It took everything in me to speak up.“I'm ready.” Saying that I picked up the pen and signed my fake name ‘Liliana Spencer’ for the last time in the designated area. My hand was shaking as I was signing the Divorce paper.“I don't want anything in the name of alimony.” placing the pen back on the table I pulled out our engagement ring and slammed it on the Divorce papers. Then I stood up to meet his eyes.“Let's reject each other right now, right here. And break this last bond that is tying us together. Then you will be free from me.” Zade looked stunned. As if he didn't expect this from me. But soon he composed his facial expression into a cold one. I was staring into his eyes confidently even though I was dying from inside.I saw him gritting his teeth and standing straight, staring into my eyes holding doubt in them. Zade took a deep breath before speaking. “I Zade Meadows……” My heart clenched with dread. So this was happening. I was hugging the last hope thinking that he would love me in the future but he was never mine, to begin with.“Son of Late Alpha Ruvan Meadows and Alpha of Silver Lake Pack, I reject you, Liliana Spencer, as my Mate and Luna of the Pack.”I felt like I had been struck by lightning inside my chest. The pain spread from my chest into the rest of my body. I could feel my wolf’s howl of pain inside my head. Officially severing the bond Zade dropped to the sofa and a whimper escaped from his mouth and he clenched his heart in pain. The bond had been broken from his side.Now it was my turn. I took a deep breath to begin. “I, Liliana Spencer…..” I paused, clenching my fists firmly and gritting my teeth as I felt like I would break down any moment.‘I can’t accept the rejection here. Then he would come to know about my secret. I can’t let him know about my true identity. I should go to our room. It will be a safe place to do that.’I turned on my heel to go to my room when I heard Zade’s voice from behind.“Are you going back to your words now? Do you regret your decision and don't want to accept my rejection?” I squeezed my eyes to control myself from breaking into tears.“Don’t worry. Nothing like that is going to happen. Just wait for a while. I’ll be back in a minute. Just don't take back your rejection.” Saying that I ran to the stairs making my way to our room. I slammed the door closed.“I, Liliana Spencer, Daughter of Alpha Christian Miller accept your Rejection Zade Meadows as my mate and as my Alpha.” I gasped in pain and my hand flew to grip my heart. I felt like someone just squeezed my heart. I could not fall weak as I wasn't done yet.Before I could start, I heard the door knob twist. I turned around to find Zade entering the room in Hust. He was breathing heavily.“Are you happy now?” I flashed my fake smile at him and took a deep breath. He didn't say anything, just kept looking at me strangely, that I could not put my finger on.“I, Liliana Spencer, former Luna of Silver Lake Pack, reject Silver Lake Pack as my home and Pack.”After saying that I felt someone grab my throat as I could not breathe at all. I saw black and white dots dancing before me, making my vision blur. Darkness was about to engulf me in its arms when I felt two arms wrapped around me. And I knew it was none other than Zade. So I spoke up before I passed out.“One day, you’re gonna remember me and how much I loved you then you’re gonna hate yourself for letting me go.”“Lily! Lily!” I heard Zade calling for me before I fell unconscious.I woke up when a ray of sunlight kept peeking on my face through the small space of the curtains. Rubbing my eyes I looked around to find myself in our room. Yesterday’s scene replayed in my mind, making me remember that Zade is not mine anymore. A painful chuckle left my lips and I looked for my phone. It was lying on the side table so picking it up I texted a message and sent it to Alex.Me: Alex, come and pick me up from Silver Lake Pack.Alexander: Whoa! What a pleasant surprise, Princess! So finally you came back to your senses. Don't worry, I will be there in a while. Coincidentally, I'm in your pack for some work.Me: Great. I'm waiting for you then.I shuffled off the bed and walked to the closest to freshen up and change into a pair of fresh clothes. The only thing I'm going to take from here while leaving.After freshening up I found my phone buzzing. So I rushed to pick it up. Alex’s ID was flashing on the screen.“Princess, I'm here. Come down. I'm waiting for you.”“I'm ready. I'll be there in a minute.” Saying that I cut the call and shoved it into my jeans pocket.I took a deep breath before walking towards the door but stopped before pulling the door and turning back to glance at the big portrait of Zaid above our bed for the last time. Two tears rolled down from my eyes gazing at his handsome face.“Goodbye, Zade. I'm sure you will regret letting me go. But it will be too late by then. Wish you happiness, Ex-King of my Heart”I didn't waste a moment and headed straight to the main door making sure no one noticed me. When I successfully came out of the house I found Alex leaning dashingly against his car. A broad smile appeared on his face upon seeing me and he held out his arms for a warm hug. I broke into tears seeing him after four long years and I ran into his arms.“Welcome back, Grace. Let's go back to our world.” I nodded while sniffing, then got into his car and drove off from there saying goodbye in my heart to the pack member who showered me with immense love.LILIANA SPENCER…..I never thought our marriage would end up like this. I really believed I could make a place in his heart. As he has a big heart of gold. I still remember that day, four years ago, at the coffee shop where I used to work, I accidentally spilled cold coffee on a customer because a customer bumped into me from behind. But that hot-tempered person, despite me asking for forgiveness several times, was not convinced and in anger, he took hot coffee from a waiter and threw it at my face. But before it could land on my face someone stood before me saving me from burning. When I looked up I met with his forest-green eyes which were looking back at me. I was mesmerized by his beautiful eyes. The man was tall and well-built. He had a perfect jawline and his hair was combed meticulously. His every move was graceful and calm. His brows were arched together in concern. And he asked me, “Are you alright?” An icy-cold voice came out of his throat. It was low and hoarse and i
THREE YEARS LATER……The night was still young and many luxurious cars and reporters geared up with cameras and equipment at the gate to the Royal Phoenix Hotel. The Royal Phoenix Hotel was the most prominent in D.C. It had gabled roofs, large bay windows, and decorative sculptures. The interior was similarly designed. The Golden Wing Age Group was hosting a party here tonight and had invited the business tycoons of D.C. to the event. A black Benz pulled over before the hotel. The Miller family was one of the Mighty Three, the top three most reputable families in D.C. Their financial power and Influence were undrivable in D.C.“It's Alec Lightwood. Alec Lightwood is here.” Loud cheering sounds came from reporters and they rushed over with their cameras. Alec Lightwood stepped out his feet from his car on the red carpet elegantly. He was dressed in an all-black suit while wearing his charming smile on his. After him, a gorgeous woman dressed in a Royal Red gown got out of his car.
ZADE MEADOWS……I woke up to the constant ringing of my phone. The moment I opened my eyes I felt a rush of pain in my head forcing me to clutch my head between my palms. I felt my head pounding nevertheless, I looked for my phone which was still ringing on the bedside table. I swiped the answer button without looking at the screen. “Hello!” “Zade, something big has happened. Someone had purchased the company shares in large quantities. The buyer now owned 51% of the company shares. Now that person is the Major shareholder of the company who can be a threat to your position.” I froze in my place. My headache became worse hearing the news. “Who is the Buyer?” “G.M.”“That's it.”“We could not find out the full name. But don't worry he will come to the shareholder meeting at 11. So please, get yourself together and come to the office.”“Yeah, I will be there. But this headache is killing me.” I groaned. “I know you have a hangover after what you did last night. But whatever you did
GRACELYNN MILLER…..Zade’s face was worth watching when he saw me walking into the meeting room. And his jaw almost touched the floor when he heard my real name. “Is there a joke going on here.” Zade’s chair fell back when he stood up with a jerk roaring like a mad bull. I had to close my eyes because of the high-pitched sound. “Liliana, what's all of this? It's not a soap opera but my office. You can't play a drama here.” I took a deep breath to calm myself then I snapped my head at him. He looked really pissed. ‘If you are like this now then how will you react when I take over your company?’ I wanted to laugh my butt off thinking about his reaction. “Mr. Meadows, what made you think that I'm making a drama here?” I raised my brow at him. “And if you forget who are you talking to right now so rudely then let me remind you, that I'm the Major shareholder of your company. You can't disrespect me like this. I will not stand it. I know, you must be shocked after discovering all of
GRACELYNN MILLER……He was a jerk and always will be a jerk. How could he hurt me again? He's hurting the same place again and again. When he apologised to me first I thought he had changed. But he proved me wrong the next moment when he said I trapped Alec for a better life. So it was clear from his side he thinks of me as a money-minded gold-digger girl who is after money. And I had chosen to marry him for the greed of money. He thinks so low of me. I don't understand what I had seen in him back then to fall in love with a jerk like him. I think I was blind back then.“Hey!” I halted on my track when Beta Killian stopped in front of me on the ground floor. “Good to see you again. Welcome back. I don't know what to call you now, Gracelynn or Liliana.” Killian sounded cheerful. So I flashed him a smile. “I wish I could say the same to you. I'm not happy to see you. And yeah, you can go with Gracelynn. That Liliana you used to know, died long ago. So there is no need to recall her any
GRACELYNN MILLER…..I stared at her in utmost shock. “Huhh!” I shook my head at her nonsense. “You know, Gianna. You have gone mad out of jealousy. How can you say that Zade is in love with me? When he himself renounced me for you, his first love. Because of you, he has not even kissed me in the four years of our marriage. You have no idea what hell I have been through in those four years of my marriage.” I let out a bitter laugh, looking at the other side. “Now you are telling me, he has feelings for me. Really! Do I look like an idiot to you that I will buy your words? If you are in the mood to joke with me then please don't. If it was before then I would have laughed at your words but after my divorce joke felt like poison to me.” I noticed how she sighed heavily. “I know you will not believe me. But it won't change the truth anyway if you believe my words or not. But let me tell you, I don't care if he loves me or not but I love him. And I want him in my life. No one can take
GRACELYNN……“What's wrong with that?” Zade’s husky voice made my stomach twirl. “I don't like it. I hate it when you come close to me.” I said quickly and looked at the other side in anger. In the blink of an eye I found myself pinned against the wall, my hands above my head in his tight grasp. Zade was dangerously close to me. His warm breath caressed my face and sent the chill of desire down my spine. I looked down, not wanting to meet his eyes that weakened my knees many times before. But he made me look into his eyes by holding my chin with his forefinger and thumb. I stared into his eyes which were holding some unknown emotions I could put my finger on. “I don't care if you say you hate me. Because I know you still have feelings for me in the corner of your heart. So don't lie. I know you very well. You can change your name to whatever you like. But your heart will remain the same. And your heart loves me.” His face was emotionless. But his overconfident attitude pissed me of
ZADE MEADOWS“Liliana never loved you, Zade. She was always after your money. When you dumped her she chose someone richer than you. But I have always loved you. And only you, Zade. And you know that.” Grace sat close to me and said holding a pool of emotion in her eyes while holding my arm. “I don't know if it was love or something else that I used to feel for you, Gianna. But I never felt for anyone what I feel for Liliana. Even though we sever every tie between us, my feelings for her never change.” I removed her hand from mine. “I know you love me. But you can't insult Liliana like that. Because you can never love me the way she used to love me in your seven lives. I used to be the world to her. Her world used to revolve around me only. If she is not with me today then only I am responsible for that. I lost her because of my foolishness. And I will do anything to win her back.” My words were clear. I hope Gianna understood that she has no place in my life other than a good frie
