Devon 's POV

Anger was all I felt throughout my stay here in Silverwood pack. For two days, I haven't seen Avery and Lucien refused to say anything about her.

"I don't see why you are interested in my servant Alpha Devon . You can have anyone in the pack except her and Stella." Lucien said and I scoffed.

"You have to choose one, Lucien . It is either her or Stella. But I will advise you to stick with Stella because I want Avery and there is nothing you can do about that." I said to him and he laughed mockingly.

"There is nothing I can do? Look around Devon . You are in my pack and any stupid action from you can cost you your life and alliance with this pack. You know you need as much as you can find because you're just stepping on that throne." He said with a small smile and what he said did make sense. "So think twice before you cross me, Alpha Devon ."

After saying that, he turned and let me there, standing, enraged. I walked back to my room and Caleb could feel my anger when he stepped back in.

"Is it about Lady Avery, my alpha?" He asked and I totally ignored him. "I got one of the maids to talk about where he might be keeping her."

I finally looked up at him before he continued speaking. "She is locked up in one of the rooms in his quarters. There's no way she can get out or we can get into his quarters because it is highly restricted. This might not be a good time to leave with her." He said and I gritted my teeth.

"I seriously want to strangle him and feed his body to my tigers." I growled angrily.

"That is not the best thing to do, my alpha. We don't want to cause any trouble with Silverwood pack, even if it isn't now, there's a chance that one of the next months, the alpha will put Prince Lucien in that alpha position." Caleb explain and I snagged back in the sofa with another loud groan.

"When are we leaving?" I asked.

"Tomorrow night my alpha. The alpha has finalized everything we came here for, so I don't see any need to stay here longer." He said and I stood up, and walked to the window, looking out in the woods. The view of the woods comforted me like it used to back at home.

"Why night?" I asked.

"I have to finalize the loading of the goods while will be following us tomorrow so we will be leaving at night." He explained and I hummed.

"You can leave." I said before he bowed and walked out of the room. I felt defeated that I was unable to do anything for Avery while I was here. Just the feeling I was getting from her, I could tell she hasn't been treated right at all and it angered me.

"I liked her." My wolf said with a low growl. "There is something about her that doesn't show weakness at all and there is something that shows this weakness too."

"I noticed that too." I replied with a sigh. I just wanted to go out and lose myself in the woods tonight but I had to be on guard in someone else's pack. "Damn, I hate leaving my pack." I gritted my teeth before returning to my bed to have my definitely unsettling sleep.

"Do you love me?" A soft voice said with a whisper. "No one has ever loved me, tell me do you love me?"

"I don't."

I shot my eyes open as I looked around frantically. It was just a dream. A sigh escaped my lips as I laid back in bed, shielding my face from the ray of sunlight coming in. I woke up very late, which is so unlike me.

I stepped out of the bed and stretched gently before going to take a shower and preparing to leave back for my pack. The thought of Avery crossed my mind again and I shook it out. When the time was right, I will come back for her if she hadn't given in to all Lucien 's desires on her.

I stepped out of the room to run into Stella who looked at me with a bright expression. "Alpha Devon , I was just personally bringing breakfast to you since you missed breakfast with us." She said, flashing me a flirty smile.

I stopped before her and leaned closer, which surprised her. "I am not interested in you Lady Stella. Your actions are passing the wrong impressions across and I would like to avoid it as much as I can." I leaned back with a smirk. "Thank you very much Lady Stella, for your kind gesture."

As I said this, I walked past her with my hands jammed in my pockets and I could tell she was shocked by my action but I couldn't care less.

The whole day passed in a blur. Alpha was seeing me back to my car. "It was very nice having you here with us in Silverwood." He said with a smile.

"I am glad we could come to an agreement to deal with each other, Alpha. I hope this continues and nothing comes in between." I said, looking at Lucien who scoffed.

"I assure you Alpha Devon ." He said with a smile and I bowed before looking at the two.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Prince Lucien , Lady Stella. I would like to see you again in future." I said before getting into my car and without saying anything else, I drove out of the place at full speed and the rest of the cars followed after me.

After driving far away from the pack house, I stepped on the break and looked at the passenger seat behind me. "You can come out now and stop hiding or I'll have to pull you down." I said and just then, Avery peeked out from behind my seat.

  • The Alpha’s Regret: Torn between two Alphas   Chapter 171

    Lucien's Pov Walking down the aisle was one thing I never imagined I would do. The thought of walking down a path lined with roses and a red carpet, and holding someone in my arms beside me that I promised to love and care for, seeming like a foreign concept. It felt weird to think that I had finally been humbled. And that I had finally been brought to my knees to consider love as anything more than erotic pleasure. It still felt strange to me that I had actually gotten here. To this point? And a part of me really felt proud.I never thought I would get here and I never thought I would actually get married… I had feared I would end up living and dying as hedonistic. But I guess miracles happen, and this just happened to be mine. I was happy even though I was a bit confused and tepid. I looked courageous and smug but I was still scared internally. I feared my old habits would come back to haunt me. And I worried I wouldn't be the best husband for Avery… She was a beautiful soul and ho

  • The Alpha’s Regret: Torn between two Alphas   Chapter 170

    Avery's PovTwo months later The crowd had gathered for the festivities and the courtyard was full of life. The entirety of Silverwood had been called for this occasion and everyone with ears had heeded the call. The streets were lined with people, stalls and activity. Musicians filled the streets with instruments and sounds. Some of the stalls filled with ale and the people were aloof and afloat. Food was bountiful. As steaks rolled over fires and men sold rottiserie chicken and smoked seasoned salmon over counters. The energy all around contagious. No single soul lost or sad or broken. Everyone, irrespective of class or status had come and were happy. All needs were met and all wants provided. It had been two months now and the town of Silverwood had gone from chaos and fighting to peace and tranquility. The people had reached a calm and began rebuilding. The torn ties, the distrust and the loss. The grieving families had been supported and helped to move on. Everyone was slowly an

  • The Alpha’s Regret: Torn between two Alphas   Chapter 169

    Luciens's PovI held her in my hands and I just couldn't contain the feeling. The rush of energy I felt inside and the lightness in my head. Her body was soft and her motion was gentle. I held her close and she sighed quietly; her soft moans driving me crazy as we held each other. I didn't know I could feel this way. And I didn't know I could feel so in love. The state I was in wasn't one of lust or to have her in bed. I held her in my arms now and the only thing I wanted was to have her there. The only thing I wanted was to hold her close and hold her forever…Avery was everything and Avery was beautiful. Her hands around me as she tried to sink into my skin. I could feel her getting closer and edging closer. I could feel her wanting to close the gap and want to be near me. I could feel her energy matched mine and that she wanted me as much as much as I wanted her. The sparks lighting up and almost written in the skies. I really didn't want to let go but I had to. I didn't really wan

  • The Alpha’s Regret: Torn between two Alphas   Chapter 168

    Avery's PovI woke up now in a gasp. My breathing heavy as I glanced in every direction frantically. I shot out of the chair or bed or whatever I was resting on and got up to my feet. I turned every which way, my eyes swinging from one side of the room to another. Then shooting up to the ceiling to see if what I had seen in my dream wasn't a dream. And if it had been real…It felt too real not to be and I deeply hoped it wasn't just hallucinations. As I looked up at the ceiling to find the carved statuettes but instead I saw a blank ceiling made of wood. I looked around for the white dress. With the veil and the mannequin? But I saw nothing. And now I quickly turned to look for Lucien. To see him maybe in the suit I had seen him in. To see his hair, and to see him smiling wide at me the way I had seen him. With the box in his hand. To hear his voice and hear him explain how he wanted to marry me. And how he had made plans for the wedding. And all he needed was a yes…But I turned arou

  • The Alpha’s Regret: Torn between two Alphas   Chapter 167

    Avery's PovI woke up confused and I didn't know where I was at first. I struggled to open my eyes and also to keep my vision steady. My eyes opening slowly like curtains and my body feeling weird between my legs. I felt a sharp pain in my hips and I could feel my thighs quake slightly. I looked down at myself to see that I was in robes?... I looked up and I didn't recognise where I was. The room in front of me is different from the one I remembered. The design different from the room I last saw myself in. The windows were wide and open, the curtains were drawn to the sides to let in light. And I found myself on a bigger bed. The sheets very soft and delicate in my hands as I rested on it with my palm, turning my head sideways trying to figure out where I was.“Rise and shine princess…” I suddenly heard a voice call. And I frowned and turned slowly. My head still hurting slightly and my legs strangely weak and tired. I managed to complete the turn and I was surprised to see Lucien stan

  • The Alpha’s Regret: Torn between two Alphas   Chapter 166

    Stella's PovIt just didn't feel right… and it just didn't make any sense. Yet it was all my reality… After all these years of hatred. To only come to realise I was hating my own blood?... That I was hating what I was supposed to love, and loving what I was supposed to hate?... The thought of being abused and used without even realising it made me shiver. I had been lied to so long and so well I couldn't even tell the difference. The lines between what was real and what was false blurring together into one vague absolute. I just couldn't believe the wool had been pulled over my eyes for so long. I had been blinded and led like a sheep and I thought I knew what I was doing? I thought I was right? I thought I was fighting for a good cause?... That my intentions were justified, and the allies were the enemies while the real enemies were actually the allies. I had gone against sensible reason and veered off wildly, and now it made me question my own self?... To believe that I was this
