Chapter 185: Trending and Bankruptcy 

(Aria’s POV) 

I sat in the comfortable living room of Moon Valley Residences, scrolling through my phone as morning sunlight filtered through the large windows. My wolf stirred uneasily within me as I noticed something 

unexpected my name was trending on the territorial social media networks alongside Alexander’s. 

“What’s this?” I muttered, clicking on the trending topic. 

A popular werewolf blogger had posted an inflammatory story titled “From Storm Pack Luna to Shadow Pack 

Alpha King’s Mate: The Dramatic Love Life of Aria Lewis.” The post detailed my past relationship with 

Alexander and our severed mate bond, complete with speculation about my current romance with Dominic. 

My pregnant wolf remained surprisingly calm as I read through the sensationalized account. The comments 

section was buzzing with activity, but most focused on what users called my “ability to attract successful 

and handsome Alphas.” 

“She went from one Alpha to an even more powerful one,” one comment read. “Talk about trading up!” 

Another user wrote, “The Alpha King’s son chose her over all the high–ranking she–wolves in the territory. She must be special.” 

I refreshed the page and gasped. My social media followers had jumped from two thousand to three million 

overnight. 

“Olivia!” I called to my friend, who was making coffee in the kitchen. “You need to see this!” 

She hurried over, her wolf’s scent carrying curiosity. “What happened?” 

“I’m trending,” I said, showing her the screen. “Someone paid for this story to go viral.” 

Olivia’s eyes widened as she read. “Who would do that? And why?” 

“I don’t know,” I replied, my hand instinctively moving to my belly where our pup was growing. “But honestly, it 

doesn’t matter.” 

I felt a wave of contentment wash over me. “I’m surrounded by love from Dominic and my new Lewis family. 

Some gossip can’t hurt me.” 

Just then, my phone rang. Dominic’s name appeared on the screen, and I could feel his protective concern through our mate bond even before I answered. 

“Aria,” his deep voice carried immediate worry. “Are you alright? I saw the trending topic.” 

“I’m fine,” I assured him, his powerful Alpha presence comforting even through the phone. “Actually, I think I can use this to my advantage.” 

“What do you mean?” 

“Look at my follower count,” I said, unable to hide my excitement. “Three million werewolves are now paying attention to me. That’s three million potential customers for the herbal remedy company.” 

Dominic’s chuckle rumbled through the speaker. “My brilliant mate, always finding opportunity in chaos.” 

* Chapter 185. Trending un. 

“Exactly,” I said, my wolf’s instincts recognizing the business potential. I’m going to post about our specialized healing remedies. This visibility could be exactly what we need.” 

Within hours of my promotional posts, the company’s visibility increased dramatically. Collaboration requests poured in from werewolf territories across the continent. I was particularly excited about the upcoming release of a specialized healing remedy project I had worked on with an overseas werewolf 

medical consortium. 

“This is incredible,” I told Olivia as we reviewed the response. “We’ve received more inquiries today than in the 

past month combined.” 

“You’re turning a potential scandal into a business success,” she said admiringly. “That’s brilliant.” 

But my mood shifted dramatically when I refreshed the news feed. A breaking story flashed across my phone 

screen like a devastating blow. 

“Whale Fall: Storm Pack Business Empire Announces Bankruptcy!” 

My wolf whimpered softly at the sight of Alexander’s pack in ruins. Despite everything he had done to me, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of melancholy. I remembered the years I had spent as his Luna, trying to support the pack’s prosperity, attending business meetings, and working to maintain their social standing. 

“Oh my goddess,” Olivia breathed, reading over my shoulder. “The entire Storm Pack business empire is gone.” 

I clicked on the article, my hands trembling slightly. The business section detailed the complete collapse of 

Alexander’s financial holdings, from real estate investments to manufacturing operations. 

“The Storm Pack’s separation from Marcus Vaughn proved to be the final blow,” the article explained. 

“Without his business acumen and financial backing, the pack’s enterprises quickly unraveled.” 

Olivia’s wolf’s scent betrayed her concern for the political implications. “This didn’t happen naturally. 

Someone deliberately sabotaged them.” 

“You think so?” I asked, though I suspected she was right. 

“Absolutely,” she replied. “The timing is too convénient. Right after your identity as a Lewis family daughter 

was revealed, Alexander’s pack suddenly collapses completely?” 

My pregnant wolf stirred with unease at the thought of such calculated revenge. “Do you think my father Dr. 

Michael Lewis or Dominic were involved?” 

“I don’t know,” Olivia said carefully. “But powerful Alphas don’t usually let insults to their families go 

unpunished.” 

She turned to me with protective instincts flaring. “Aria, you need to be careful. A desperate Alexander is a dangerous Alexander. He might lash out in his desperation.” 

“What do you mean?” 

“Think about it,” she said urgently. “He’s lost everything – his pack’s wealth, his territory’s standing, his business empire. The only thing left from his past life is his connection to you and your pup.” 

The implications of her words sent a chill through me. “You think he might try something?” 

“I think he might become unpredictable,” Olivia replied. “Promise me you’ll be extra cautious.” 

Before I could respond, she suddenly gasped, her attention shifting to my appearance. “Wait, Aria. Look at

yourself.” 

I glanced down, confused. “What?” 

“Your baby bump,” she said with genuine excitement. “It’s grown so much in recent weeks! How far along are you now?” 

I placed my hands on my expanding abdomen, feeling the obvious curve that had developed. “Almost five months. The pup is growing quickly.” 

“When is your due date?” she asked, her wolf’s scent carrying anticipation about the upcoming birth. 

“Dr. Nathan Lewis estimates early spring,” I replied, smiling at the thought of holding my pup. “Dominic is already planning the nursery.” 

“That’s wonderful!” Olivia exclaimed. “A spring pup born to the Alpha King’s son and the Lewis family daughter. This child will be so loved.” 

Just then, my phone rang again. Dominic’s name appeared on the screen. 

“The marking ceremony dress designer will be arriving soon,” he said without preamble. “I want to be present for the measurements.” 

“Dominic,” I said with amusement, “you don’t need to supervise every appointment. I’ll be fine.” 

“I know you will,” he replied, his Alpha protectiveness evident even through the phone. “But I want to ensure everything is perfect for our ceremony.” 

“You’re being overprotective,” I teased gently. 

“I’m being appropriately cautious,” he corrected. “Especially given recent events.” 

I was about to dismiss his concerns with a smile when the doorbell rang, its chime echoing through our Moon Valley territory. 

“That must be the designer,” I said to Dominic. “I’ll call you back after the appointment.” 

“Alright,” he replied. “But if anything feels wrong, call me immediately.” 

“I will,” I promised, ending the call. 

Olivia walked toward the door with confident strides. “I’ll get it. You should probably sit down anyway with that growing bump.” 

I settled back into the couch, expecting to hear pleasant greetings as the designer was welcomed in. Instead, Olivia’s wolf’s scent immediately spiked with alarm. 

“Aria!” she called out, her voice tight with warning. “You need to come here. Now.” 

Something in her tone made my pregnant wolf whimper with anxiety. I stood up quickly, my hands instinctively moving to protect my belly. 

“What’s wrong?” I called back, hurrying toward the entrance. 

But as I reached the doorway, I froze in shock. At the door stood Alexander, his usually composed Alpha demeanor completely shattered. His amber eyes held a strange, almost unhinged expression that I had n seen before. 

His clothes were wrinkled, his hair disheveled, and his wolf’s scent carried notes of desperation and barely

contained fury. This wasn’t the pollshed Storm Pack Alpha I had once known this was a broken man with nothing left to lose.
