Lycan king's substitute breeder novel Chapter 83

Oregon

Vivian fell silent, her misty eyes fixed on me as she processed my words. Had I just rejected her?

"Wait, Oregon. What... What are you saying? Why are you saying this?" she asked, her voice filled with confusion.

"Please accept my rejection, Vivian!" I yelled, tears streaming down my face.

"I won't!" she screamed, her tears drying up. "I won't accept your rejection, that's final. You need time to clear your mind, and that's what I'll give you. Just rest, I'll leave you alone." With that, she turned to leave.

"Do you think I'm joking, Vivian?" I asked, and she sighed.

"I'd rather not talk to you. Just go to your room and rest," she said, attempting to turn the doorknob.

"Can't you see that I don't love you anymore?" I yelled, and she turned to face me.

"What?" she whispered, her eyes blinking twice.

"I said I'm not in love with you anymore. I don't have those feelings. I'm in love with someone else," I said, my voice low and soft, trying to sound sincere.

Her eyes filled with disbelief as she stared at me.

"I'm in love with someone else," I said coldly, and she ran her tongue across her lips.

"I don't want to know. I don't want to hear it. Just rest up, I'll come back to check on you. Goodbye," she said.

I quickly grabbed Isabella's arm and pulled her close, crashing my lips onto hers. To make it seem real, I kissed her passionately and deeply. Vivian, who was watching, gasped in shock, fresh tears streaming down her face.

I closed my eyes, pretending to enjoy the kiss with Isabella. Meanwhile, Vivian couldn't bear it any longer. She took a few steps back, turned around, and ran out of the room.

Once the door shut behind us, I pushed Isabella away and rushed to lock the door. I turned to Isabella, who seemed lost, and she nervously bit her bottom lip.

"Snap out of it, Laura. You know why I did that," I said, and she slowly turned to me, a smile playing on her lips.

"Wow," she chuckled. "You're quite the actor. Is this what I've been missing all this time? Vivian definitely bought it."

I sighed, frustration evident in my voice. "I have no idea. I need to get Vivian out of this pack house. I need her to stop loving me. If she finds out the truth, she'll hate me. I can't even look her in the eyes, I feel so guilty."

Isabella rolled her eyes and sat down on the sofa.

"I wonder how she's feeling right now," I muttered, sadness lacing my words.

Isabella scoffed and shook her head. "Isn't it obvious? I'm sure she's feeling devastated and heartbroken after being rejected by you."

I sighed and bit my lower lip. "I need to do something," I said.

"What's that?" Isabella asked, raising an eyebrow.
