Chapter 492
Chapter 492:
“Priceless,” Almon practically purred. “His cigar froze in mid-air. His face turned the color of a bruised plum. The absolute humiliation of the Davenport Pack is complete. The gossip is already spreading to the press p>
“Good,” I rumbled, my golden eyes flashing in the dim light.
I severed the connection and pulled Adelina closer. The Davenports had tried to destroy my Mate. Now, the undeniable biological reality of our eternal bond would be broadcast to the world. I knew exactly what this news would do to Jase Davenport’s broken, pathetic mind. It would be the final, fatal blow. And my Lycan didn’t feel a single ounce of mercy.
Blake POV
The morning sun hit the pavement outside the Union Club, but the air inside my idling SUV felt like a freezer. The heavy oak doors of the club swung violently open. My uncle, Richard Davenport, stormed down the steps, his face a mottled, furious purple. The sheer, suffocating weight of his enraged Alpha scent bled through the glass before he even yanked the car door open.
“Drive,” Richard snarled, slamming the door shut.
“Uncle Richard, what happened?” My Inner Wolf whimpered, shrinking back from his volatile aura.
“Almon Blackwell,” he spat, his hands trembling with a mix of humiliation and pure rage. “He just announced it to the entire smoking room. That wolfless girl is pregnant. She is carrying the Lycan King’s pup p>
“Jase,” I breathed.

“Get to his penthouse. Now,” Richard ordered, his voice a lethal, vibrating rumble. “If that news hits the press, he will do something that destroys this Pack permanently. Control him, Blake p>
Twenty minutes later, I used my emergency passcode to unlock Jase’s Tribeca penthouse. The moment the door opened, the rancid, sour stench of alcohol, sweat, and absolute despair hit me like a physical wall. The heavy blackout curtains were drawn. The expensive modern furniture was overturned, and the Persian rug was littered with shattered crystal whiskey glasses.
“Jase?” I called out softly, stepping carefully over the debris.
He was slumped on the floor near the destroyed coffee table, staring blankly at the wall. He looked like a ghost, his broken Alpha Inner Wolf a faint, pathetic shadow of its former glory.
I knelt beside him, trying to find the gentlest way to break the news that his delusion was over. But before I could speak, the front door burst open. Jase’s assistant rushed in, his face pale with terror, clutching a tablet.
“Sir, I tried to stop it, but The Howl just pushed a breaking alert p>
Jase moved with a sudden, frantic burst of energy. He snatched the tablet from the assistant’s hands. His bloodshot eyes darted across the glowing screen, desperately searching for the word “rumor p>
There was no rumor. It was a biological, undeniable fact.
I watched the exact moment my cousin’s mind broke. For months, Jase had convinced himself that Kain was controlling Adelina with dark magic. But a pup — a Lycan heir — meant their souls and bodies were irreversibly, eternally bound.
