Chapter 48
Reborn Omega: Avenge Herself Like an Alpha
48 No One to Trust
Charles ‘ POV
I didn’t know how to feel anymore.
Then suddenly, the bed above us shook harder. Aurelia moaned loudly, “God! You’re way better than our Jax ! ”
That bastard laughed. “Of course. A beta’s stamina leaves gammas in the dust. But if he ever finds out you paid me to rape his daughter… he’d probably have a stroke!”
Aurelia giggled breathlessly. “As long as we get the footage of you screwing Aubrey.. I don’t care how much it costs…”
“Deal! You’re paying and putting out–count on me to get the job done. Just make sure to blur my face orice you film me and Aubrey in bed!”
My blood ran cold. I wanted to burst out from under the bed and beat that guy to death. He wanted to touch Aubrey?!
But before I could move, Aubrey’s hand slipped into mine–tightening around my clenched fist like she knew exactly what I was about to do..
I froze. Her hand was soft, her touch gentle, but it somehow unraveled the rage boiling inside me. What replaced it… wasn’t exactly anger.
My face flushed with heat. I didn’t know what was wrong with me. The creaking bed above made my heart jolt and stumble with every bounce.
Finally, when the two left, Aubrey let go and signaled for me to crawl out. The moment her fingers slipped away, I felt… empty.
She didn’t even glance my way–she was busy checking her phone, satisfied with the audio she’d just recorded.
I looked at her, torn. “You knew your aunt was planning something like this all along? Are you… going to give that recording to your dad?”
“Heh.” She looked up at me, like she was staring at a dumb puppy. “You think my dad’s going to believe me over the woman he sleeps with every night? He’s whipped me with wolfsbane more times than I can count – All Aurelia has to do is cry and say the audio was fake, and he’ll believe her. Then I’ll be chained up in the
basement getting another round of ‘discipline.”
She paused, then leaned in close to me. “Unless… the righteous Mr. Charles wants to to
on my behalf?
Her sudden closeness hit me like a truck. I gasped and stumbled back, heart slamming against my ribs. It was like an invisible force had seized me whole.
She tilted her head, watching me curiously. I quickly looked away.
“I–I…”
My head was a mess. All I could smell was her scent. I hated manipulative women. Aubrey, in my mind, w exactly that–calculating and layered.

So why couldn’t I stay away from her?
Aubrey’s POV
As I expected, Charles wasn’t going to just agree to help.
The Lynn family had influence in the Shadowinoon Pack. They carried a good amount of weight . I’d even heard that one of their relatives was running for the beta position at Alpha Henry’s side. If a scandal broke out now, it would crush their chances.
I crossed my arms and snorted. “Mr. Charles, since you helped me break in, I’ll give you a free tip – go dig into Aurelia. There’s a bigger fish behind her than you can imagine.”
There’s no way she bought that villa with just my dad’s money. He doesn’t have nearly enough .
Back in my last life, I was trapped in the lab and died without ever learning who was backing Aurelia.
But this time, I’m going to find out. And I’ll crush them. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findηovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access s of novels early and in the highest quality.
In the back of my mind, Ella’s furious growl pulsed like a migraine at my temples. “I don’t care if she’s backed by the Alpha King himself–I’ll rip out every one of their throats.”
