---- "Lucien." Summer's voice trembled, soft and tearful. "1m sorry, I didn't mean to bother you, but the power's out at my place. I think there's a short circuit or something... "It's so dark. I'm scared..." Lucien closed his eyes for a moment. Despite everything, he still felt a twinge of guilt and pity. "Tl be there soon. Stay inside." He hung up and headed straight to her house. The second he walked in, he was greeted by the sight of Summer ina revealing silk nightgown. She rushed over and clung to his arm. "You're finally here. I was so scared..." she purred sweetly as she leaned into him. Lucien's expression turned cold, and he pulled his arm free. "You called me here... for this?" Summer moved closer, trying again to hook her arm through his. "I'm scared, Lucien. I just want you to stay with me tonight. Please?" ---- Lucien stepped away from her, his face as cold as stone. "Summer, I'm not in the mood for your games. If I'd known this was what you were really after, I wouldn't have come." Her face twisted with fury. "What is that supposed to mean, Lucien? Don't tell me you've actually fallen for that bitch Mia. She's just a filthy, wolfless Omega. She's nothing compared to me!" "Watch your mouth!" Lucien snapped, exerting his Alpha dominance. Summer flinched at the weight of his presence. Fear flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly drowned by jealousy and spite. "What's so special about her, huh? You used to love me! What changed?" Lucien stared at the woman in front of him, hysterical and desperate, and all he could see was my quiet warmth. He remembered coming home from exhausting days at work to a table full of home- cooked meals, a house that always smelled of ---- something warm, clean, and familiar. I never raised my voice. Even when he lashed out at me from stress, I would simply listen, then offer him comfort with gentle hands and a soft voice. Pain stabbed through Lucien's chest. Only now, after I left, did he realize his true feelings for me. He didn't just care about me; he loved me. And Summer? She was nothing more than a ghost of his youthful obsession, something he should've let go of long ago. "Enough," Lucien said sharply, shaking Summer's hands off him. "There's nothing between us anymore. Stop holding onto something that's already gone. From now on, don't contact me again." With that, he turned and walked away. "Lucien! Don't you walk away from me!" Summer screamed, lunging forward, but the force of his aura pinned her where she stood. All she could do was watch him leave, powerless to ---- stop him. She crumpled to the floor, fists clenched, and her face twisted with fury. "Mia, even in death, you're still ruining everything! I will never let you have Lucien. Never!"
