Let's break up

last update Last Updated: 2025-01-09 23:38:39

Alex called me the minute I got to my room. It was as if he were keeping watch on me to know when I would be alone. Letting out a frustrated sigh at the flash of his name on my screen, I answered the call.

“Hello?” I yawned, stretching my muscles. The conversation with Viktor drained me more than I thought it would.

“Aithan, where are you?” He sounded urgent, a tone that I would never associate with him. Alex had always kept his cool with me unless he was confessing his love for me.

“At home. Where else?” I plopped down on my bed, the soft mattress enveloping me in its comfort. “What's wrong? Why did you call? Don't tell me you missed me?” I lifted a brow, a hint of amusement dancing in my voice.

“I do, but it's not that. I have something to tell you. Can you meet me at my casino in a few?”

“Coincidentally, I also have something to tell you.” I got up from the bed. “Your call couldn't have come at a more perfect time.”

“Okay. See you then.”

He disconnected. I pocketed my phone before

    “Let's do what??” Alex's eyes widened in shock, and he took a step back as if I had physically punched him. “What do you mean?” he asked, his voice shaking slightly as he tried to hold my gaze, but I averted it. “Why are you saying this?” This time his tone was low. “It's just…” I drew a deep breath, trying to steel myself for the conversation. "I mean it, Alex. We can't be together anymore. My father…he knows about us. He saw a picture of us together."“A picture?” He repeated as his face fell, and he looked as if I dumped the worst news on him. “How did he…? Never mind. What did he say to you?”“It doesn't matter what he said. What matters is that he knows, and he will not let us be together. We have to end this, Alex. For our good.” I forced a smile. “You can have my mark removed if that's what's bothering you. We don't belong to each other. We are only together to —”“No!” He growled. Alex's eyes flashed with anger, and he took a step closer to me. “I won't let you do this. We ca

    ALEX“Fuck!” I slammed my fist on the desk, making the wood reverberate with the force of my anger. Yet, it didn't sate me. “Fuck!” I cried out, my voice echoing off the walls of my office. I felt like my heart had been ripped out forcefully and trampled under people's feet. I couldn't believe what I had just heard. Aithan's words lingered in my mind, cutting deep into my soul. The thought sent a wave of rage coursing through my veins as I tried to regulate my breathing, but it wasn't easy. I couldn't think of a life without him. These past few days with him made me rely fully on his warmth, and on my mate, who knew nothing about our bond. I felt so fucking dead. He hadn't been gone for up to a minute, but it felt like he had been gone forever, leaving a void too big to be filled behind.“No!” I screamed, placing both hands on my head, to stop it from splitting from the pain.With a sudden burst of fury, I swept my arms across the desk, sending papers and pens flying. I kicked ove

    AITHANIt hurts. So damned much. I couldn't tell how many hours I drove around the city, trying to clear my mind from the guilt and pain I got from the breakup before I decided to return home. I didn't know it would hurt like this. If I did, I wouldn't have broken up with him. No. Separating was the right choice. I shook my head, trying to dispel it from the thoughts that wanted to take over. I knew staying with Alex wasn't an excellent decision, or else I wouldn't have been affected by this just like I was. All it took was breaking up with him for me to feel like a considerable chunk of my heart had been removed from my body. The nearer I got home, the more convinced I became I made the right decision. However, I couldn't bring myself to call him, not after the hurtful words I said to him. Not only that, but I ignored his calls. “Aithan, what's wrong with you?” I whispered to myself as I stared ahead. It had now gotten dark, showing how long I had driven around to clear my mind.

    ALEXANDER Our property was devoid of any soul when I drove into the compound. There were no guards at the gate to usher me in. I had to get out of the car, to be scanned before the gates opened, something that hadn't happened before. I was puzzled as I glanced around, wondering what was going on. This was almost like how the compound was this morning. However, unlike this morning when there were guards by the gate and Max to welcome me, there was no one out here. I shook off all the thoughts that tried to take over, to make me forget why I returned to the house. With another glance around the empty compound, I quickened over to the door. Thankfully, it wasn't locked. Which could mean our butler was in there or the cook. I couldn't be more grateful for that. I stepped into the house and hastened over to my room where I got the papers I needed. All the documents for the properties I owned were in my room except the one for the bar I got when Marcus sent me to complete a task. It was

    He smirked, a knowing glint in his eyes. He didn't respond to my words immediately, but the way he looked at me made me feel uncomfortable. “Where are the papers?” I asked, ready to sweat it out if it was the only way I could get him to provide the papers. “There.” He gestured to his desk, and he stood back, with his arms still folded and that suspicious glint in his gaze. I frowned as my gaze went to the papers before it returned to him, stunned. This wasn't what I expected him to do. I thought he would put up a fight, try to waste my time or anything. I just wasn't expecting him to give the papers up without a fight or a major argument. “You are giving them to me? Just like that?” “Why? Isn't that what you want? You can take the papers and leave. Your slutty beta is waiting for you.” He wrinkled his nose in disgust.I ignored his snide remarks and walked over to his desk to pick up the documents. As long as I had the papers with me, it was all that mattered. I reached over and

    ALEXI blinked, looking around the cell in confusion. What was I doing here? I tried to rise, but my legs protested. It seemed like something hard was holding them down, preventing me from rising.As I struggled to sit up again, I took stock of my surroundings. The cell was small and sparse, with stone walls and a single, barred window high up on one wall. A thin, straw-filled pallet was the only furniture in the room.I let out a deep sigh as I tried once more, wondering where my father was. More importantly, was how I ended up in such a place. I couldn't even remember anything. It felt like I had been asleep for a long time as the only memories I had were of my mother dying. The memory was vivid in my mind as if it had happened a few hours ago. I could still feel the pain of her death, and the ache it left in my heart when the warehouse went up in flames. I was helpless. I couldn't save my mother. In the back of my mind, there was this nagging feeling that I somehow caused her dea

    PROLOGUEHe stared at me, his hazel eyes seeming to look into my soul. “You are beautiful,” those whispered words caused my stomach to flutter and my heart to skip. I knew I shouldn't be feeling this way, but my body seemed to have a mind of its own.His hand reached for me, and he wrapped it around my neck, not hard, but sturdy enough to keep my focus on him as he leaned closer. 'Tell me if you don't like it' Was the only warning I got before he kissed me. The moment our lips touched, it felt like the explosion of fireworks, taking my breath with it, and leaving me unable to form coherent thoughts. I melted into his kiss, my lips parting to invite him deeper. His hand on my neck sent shivers down my spine, but it wasn't fear that coursed through my veins. It was something far more dangerous—desire.As our tongues danced, the tension between us crackled like electricity. I felt alive, my senses heightened, and my heart racing.The scent of his skin enveloped me, a musky sweetness tha

    AITHAN“Beware,” he whispered, leaning down so close that his lips brushed my left ear. “If you don't keep that mouth shut, I will stuff it with something else. Something that will leave you moaning like the slut you are.”Though those words ended with me punching him, I didn't feel any satisfaction, not with that knowing smirk on his face as he wiped the blood from his lips. Alexander “Lex” De Luca, the bane of my existence, and the man I hated the most in the entire world, the same reason I was sitting here, staring into the face of my father.“How could you do that?!” He hit his right palm on the table, causing me to roll my eyes. Father always got worked up over little things, and it was happening right now. His receding hairline, and eyes which always darkened in anger, made me worry about his future.Lifting my shoulders in a shrug, I gave him a bored look as I leaned back in the chair. “He started it. That fucking bastard called me a bitch!”How could I ignore him when he did s

    I gulped, still thinking of a way to salvage the issue. “It's… I…”“Why him? You have always claimed you hate him. Was that all a lie? Why will you even do that?" He looked confused. "I always felt something like this only happens in movies. Who would have guessed a son of mine would do that?!”Viktor was beyond pissed at me. He didn't even try to control his anger. He just let it out, so I would know how he felt. “I only sought him out for his help,” I explained, looking straight into his eyes. “You have to believe me. It wasn't intentional. I —”“Did he force you?” Viktor got up from the loveseat, with his eyes blazing in fury. “Did he make you do it against your will? Did he kidnap you?” I so badly wanted to nod, to lay all the blame on Alex, to claim he seduced me and held me against my will, then videoed it all just so he could blackmail me. Viktor would believe that. It wasn't the first time something like this had happened to me. He would think I was the victim. His hatred fo

    “Well… That's the right thing to do.” Pink smiled at me. “Rest assured, I will keep your secret. I will take it to my grave.”“Thanks, man.” I nodded at him before I removed the seatbelt and got out of the car. Pink followed me shortly and headed up to the main house with me. “Do you need my aid with anything?” He asked before I could open the door and step in. I paused and turned to him. “Huh?”“Do you have any task for me to do today? Alpha Viktor gave me an off today. He said I deserved to rest after working for a week in your absence, so I —”“No, I don't need your help with anything.” I waved him off. “Since he asked you to take a day off, do that. You deserve it.” I smiled at him. “Have a nice day. Do whatever you want, you can even visit the bar if you like,” I added with a wink, knowing he could tell what I meant by that. “I will.”“You better. Just go lose some steam.” I turned and headed into the house, gently closing the door behind me. “I'm baackkkkkkkkk!” I yelled in
