SOPHIA’S POV

The hum of the engine filled the silence between us, a low, steady reminder of the storm I had just walked out of. City lights streaked outside the windows, their glow cracked and blurred, mirroring the chaos in my head. I sat back against the leather seat, staring at the passing streets, trying to push away the weight pressing down on my chest.

Lucas glanced at me from the driver’s seat, his eyes flicking between me and the road. He didn’t speak right away, but I could feel the question hanging in the air, heavy and inevitable. Like rain. Like tax.

He was giving me space, waiting for the right moment to breach the quiet.

“You’ve been quiet since we left.” His voice was soft, careful. “What’s going on in that head of yours?”

I considered brushing it off, offering some excuse, but I knew better. Lucas wasn’t the type to let things go. He knew me too well for that. He’s been there too much.

“I’m fine,” I said, my tone was light, too rehearsed. I knew I wasn't selling it. “I

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 143 – I wasn’t going to let her slip away without a fight!

    NATHAN'S POVThe moment they walked away, something in my chest twisted – tight and unyielding. I watched as Lucas placed a hand on the small of Sophia’s back, guiding her through the crowd with an ease that made my wolf growl in protest.She was his.At least, that was the message she wanted to send.Fucking hell. I exhaled sharply, dragging a hand down my face. The sharp sting of whiskey still clung to the air, the remnants of the night lingering long after the music had dimmed and the chatter softened. My jaw clenched as I forced myself to turn away, to push down the gnawing frustration clawing at my ribs.She wasn’t mine anymore.But that didn’t mean I’d stop fighting.I had known this wouldn’t be easy. I had spent weeks preparing myself for her anger, for her coldness, but seeing it – feeling it – was different. It wasn’t just her walls that had grown stronger; she had. She was still the same woman I knew but more. She was a woman that had to endure a lot in life. And came out w

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 144 – This Time, I Would Be the One in Control!

    SOPHIA’S POVThe city was quiet, the hum of life outside muted by the late hour. I've always loved living in this part of the city. It was homely but sophisticated, the perfect place to raise my kids. I loved that they’ve lived here and this is home to them.I sat on the couch, legs tucked beneath me, the soft glow of the lamp the only source of light. My phone rested on the coffee table, Lucas’s message still lingering on the screen.Proud of you beautiful.I traced the rim of my wine glass with my finger, lost in thought.Nathan.I had spent so, so many years trying to forget him. To erase the man who once felt like the center of my world. I told myself I had succeeded, that I had moved on, left him in the past where he belonged. But tonight… Tonight proved otherwise.I should have been fine. I had prepared for this moment – seeing him again, facing whatever unresolved weaves were left between us. But nothing could have prepared me for the storm that seeing him unleashed.He looked…

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 145 – Are the Twins Really Mine?

    SOPHIA'S POVThe dull hum of soft conversation among the waiters filled the restaurant as I oversaw the final touches for tonight’s dinner service. The tables were set with pristine white linens, candles flickering softly in the dim light. A private reservation under Emerald Ventures had booked the entire place for the evening – a request we’d received before for special occasions, and I thought nothing of it.I glanced at my watch. The reservation was set to begin in fifteen minutes, but the restaurant was strangely quiet, devoid of any guests. Odd. Usually, corporate groups arrive early, excited and noisy. It was usually a relief from their everyday lives.“Alright boss. That's everything. If you need anything, I'll just be loading in the things at the back.” Marco said, wiping his hands clean of the sauce he had been making earlier.“You know you could leave that till tomorrow yeah?” I asked him with a small smile on my face, fiddling with my necklace.“No can do boss. Only because

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 146 – She wasn’t just angry. She was done.

    NATHAN’S POVThe door to Sophia’s restaurant slammed shut behind me, but its echo followed me all the way down the street, reverberating in my chest like a war drum. My pulse roared in my ears, drowning out the hum of city life around me.The twins.They were mine.My legs carried me forward on autopilot, my mind stuck on that single revelation. The twins – Alex and Alexia – weren’t just some coincidence. Not just a fleeting connection in a museum that haunted me endlessly.They were my blood. My children.Sophia’s silence had spoken louder than any confession ever could. My hands trembled as I shoved them into my pockets, the weight of everything crashing down on me like a tidal wave.I hurt her. No, I destroyed her.The image of her standing there, fury in her eyes and pain radiating off her like heat from a wildfire, wouldn’t leave me. Her words echoed in my head, sharp and unforgiving. “You cast me out of the only home I had ever known.”I ran a hand down my face, my breath unste

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 147 – Love Isn’t Enough

    SOPHIA'S POV The moment Nathan left, the strength that had held me upright crumbled. My knees gave out, and I sank onto one of the chairs, gripping the edge of the table like it was the only thing tethering me to the earth. I cleared my mind, taking deep breaths to steady myself. He knew.The secret I had held close for so many years, the one thing I had sworn to protect at all costs – he knew.They’re mine.His voice still echoed in my head, raw with realization. I had seen it happen in real time – the exact moment it clicked. The weight of it had staggered him, shaken him down to his core.And the worst part?I had seen something else in his eyes too.Regret.Not just the casual, surface-level kind. No, this was deeper. The kind that has been sequestered deep in a person’s soul.“Good.” My wolf huffed, her presence simmering beneath my skin. “Let him drown in it.”I pressed the heels of my palms into my hair, smoothening the strands. “It doesn’t matter,” I whispered. "It changes n

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 148 –  Show Her, Not Tell Her

    NATHAN’S POVThe impact rattled my bones. My fist connected with the punching bag again, harder this time, sending it swinging wildly. Again.My breath came in ragged gasps, my skin slick and coated with sweat. The dimly lit training room smelled of leather and sawdust, the air thick with my frustration.Again.I corrected my stance, muscles coiled tight and threw another punch. Then another. The sting in my knuckles barely registered. I needed the pain. I welcomed it.Sophia’s voice echoed in my head – raw, furious, unforgiving.“You cast me out of the only home I had ever known.”I clenched my jaw and struck again and even I knew my movements were turning wild, unfocused. The anger wouldn’t burn out. It just coiled tighter, threatening to consume me. I saw the moment Sophia realized I knew the truth about the twins. I could envision the silence that had condemned me.“Are the twins really mine?”Her expression filled with defiance and anger was one I would never forget.I had forg

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 149 – Not When He Was Looking at Me Like That

    SOPHIA'S POVThe restaurant had long since emptied, save for a few lingering patrons finishing their meals, and the soft hum of closing-time preparations filled the air. The scent of freshly baked bread and simmering sauces wafted through the kitchens to me, a reminder of the long day I'd had. I wiped a damp cloth across the counter, my movements slower than usual, my thoughts far too tangled to focus.Nathan.The name alone sent a fresh wave of frustration through me. I had spent years locking him out of my mind, reminding myself that he was simply an ugly reminder of my past and now, with a few careless words and a look that made my heart lurch in ways I didn’t want to acknowledge, he was back in my head, unraveling the careful balance I had built.I sighed, pressing my fingers against my temples. Enough.“You look like you're trying to kill that counter.” Lucas’s voice broke through my haze, warm and laced with amusement.I glanced up, meeting his steady gaze as he leaned against t

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 150 – I'm Coming Back!

    THEON’S POVI exhaled slowly, rubbing my temples as the raised voices of pack members clashed in the air like a venti storm brewing. The clearing outside the packhouse was thick with tension, wolves standing in scattered groups, their expressions ranging from angry to impatient to bored.At the center of it all, as always, was Beta Lewis.“This is unacceptable,” Lewis growled, his stance rigid, eyes burning with barely concealed fury. “My daughter deserves better than to be treated like some – some commoner among the pack. She has the blood of a Beta in her veins. That should mean something!”I bit back the urge to sigh. I’d heard this argument before – several times, in fact. Ever since Nathan had left to establish his company in the human world, Lewis had been pushing harder, demanding recognition, stirring unrest with talk of traditions and bloodlines. He used to be calmer when Nathan was around but after months of the Alpha's absence, I could tell Lewis was getting used to the pow

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 230 – A nice man?

    SOPHIA'S POVI stepped inside, the familiar scent of home greeting me, but something was... wrong. The door clicked softly behind me, and the silence that followed was almost suffocating. I hadn’t expected the house to feel so still, so quiet. But it was more than that. It felt empty in a way that twisted something deep inside me.I hesitated, standing in the entryway. The house was usually alive with noise – Alex and Alexia’s laughter, their endless chatter, the thumping of their footsteps as they ran through the halls. But now… nothing.I swallowed hard, the unease crawling up my spine as my fingers curled around my bag. I’d seen the note at the door, my heart already racing before I even touched it.“I'm here for you Sophia. Miss me?” The words had burned into my mind, and now, with the house so eerily silent, my stomach twisted painfully.“Alex? Alexia?” I called, my voice too small in the empty air. It felt like I was shouting into a void. No answer. Just that thick, pressing sil

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 229 – I'm here for you Sophia. Miss me?

    SOPHIA'S POVLola was quiet for a moment, her hand loosely wrapped around her mug. Then, with a glance that was far too knowing for my liking, she said gently, “So… how do you really feel about him?”Her words settled like mist in the cozy room, quiet and unassuming, but thick enough that I couldn’t ignore them.I stared into my tea like it might offer a better answer than I could. It didn’t. “I don’t know.” I said, which was technically true, if you just didn't count all the parts of me screaming otherwise.Lola’s eyebrows shot up. “Oh, please. That’s the most suspicious ‘I don’t know’ I’ve heard all week – and I’ve had three customer complaints and a guy who claimed his espresso was ‘emotionally cold.’”I laughed despite myself. “Emotionally cold?”“He said it lacked soul. I gave him a biscotti and told him to take it up with his therapist.”I nearly spit my tea. “God, I’ve missed this.”“What, sarcasm and caffeine-fueled delusions?”“Exactly that.” I smiled, then let it slip. “And…

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 228 – Wolves don’t mate for nothing

    SOPHIA'S POVThe warmth of the mug seeped into my fingers as I curled them tighter around it, watching the steam swirl into the quiet kitchen. It seemed like Elara had offered me tea more out of habit than anything else, but I had accepted with a small, grateful smile, and she nodded, a smile on her own face, the kind that made you feel like she already knew what you needed.We walked in silence from the woods, the smell of nature and moonlight still clinging to my skin. I didn't know moonlight has its own scent till today. Was this how freeing it could be? Was this what I'd been missing? Been denying myself in the name of protection? The streets beyond this clove were empty this late, the world hushed and still. And now, with a cup in hand and the ache of the shift softened into a gentle hum beneath my skin, I finally felt grounded.At peace.Well, almost.“Elara?” I asked, glancing up from my mug. “How often do you walk these woods?”She arched a silver brow, blowing on her tea. “A

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapters 227 – I would follow that woman any-fucking-where

    NATHAN'S POVI didn’t slam the door.Didn’t storm off, didn’t shout or demand she choose me. That had been the old me – the boy who thought power alone could win devotion.I left Sophia’s house with my jaw clenched, my fists loose at my sides, and a storm brewing behind my ribs. Lucas had looked so damn settled in her space, and she hadn’t stopped him. Not really. Not even when the kids had lit up at the sight of me, not when the air had pulsed between us like a heartbeat.I got in the car and pulled away slowly, like I wasn’t unraveling inside.But I was.I couldn’t go home. Not to the penthouse with its cold silence and reminders of what I’d lost. So I drove with no destination until the buildings thinned and the edges of the city blurred.Eventually, I ended up at the overlook above the river, where the world fell quiet and I could breathe.Almost.The next day came with emails, missed calls, and two back-to-back meetings. Camille cornered me in the hallway with her usual stack of

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 226 – I Forgot What This Felt Like

    SOPHIA'S POVThe laughter came first – sharp and clear, like little bells ringing through the living room.“Okay, okay, one more time.” I laughed, holding up the deck of cards.“No!” Alex shouted, laughing uncontrollably and holding his tummy as he fell over onto the cushions. “You’re cheating!”“I am not!” I defended dramatically, spreading my hands. “I’m just really good at Go Fish.”“You peeked!” Alexia accused with narrowed eyes and a smug little grin, arms crossed as if she were the judge and jury both.“I did not peek! That’s called strategic intuition.”“Mom.” Alex groaned from the floor, face stuffed into a throw pillow then turned to Alexia. “She’s using grown up words again. That means she’s lying.”I fell back onto the carpet in mock defeat, while both kids climbed over me like little wolves claiming victory. It was past their bedtime, the dishes from dinner was still in the sink, and I had at least two voicemails from Kate about tomorrow’s delivery schedule. But none of it

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 225 – If only I knew...

    SOPHIA'S POVI couldn’t taste the waffles.Couldn’t even tell if they were burnt or perfect, though I watched Lucas flip them with his usual confidence and pride. I watched Alex drizzle syrup across his plate like it was a masterpiece. I watched Alexia pick at hers, pulling the edges apart like she was unspooling something too tightly wound.And across the table – Nathan.His presence alone changed the air in the room. Like a low growl under a wolf's breath . He sat with poise, talking softly to Alex as if they’d always known each other. Asking questions about school, about drawings, about dreams. And somehow – somehow – Alex opened up. Completely. Like he’d been waiting to be heard in exactly that tone, with exactly that warmth.It scared me. How easy it was.“You okay?” Lucas’s voice cut into the quiet.I blinked. He was watching me from the other end of the table, his jaw tight, his expression blank. Dangerous.“Yeah.” I said too fast. “Just tired.”“Didn’t sleep again?”I shrugged

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 224 – Not Yours. Never was.

    NATHAN'S POVThe door swung open.And there she was.Sophia.Barefoot, wearing worn jeans and a soft sweater that still somehow managed to knock the breath from my lungs. Her hair was loose around her shoulders, her cheeks flushed like she’d been running — or panicking. Knowing the absolute fucking love of my life – probably both.Her eyes locked onto mine. For a second, neither of us moved.I tightened my grip on the paper bag and the small wooden box in my other hand. Gifts. Pathetic offerings for the things I really wanted — her forgiveness. My children’s acceptance. A place at their table. In their lives.“Hi.” I said, voice rougher than I intended.“Hi.” She breathed back.I saw it then — the war happening inside her. The way her body wanted to lean toward me but her mind pulled her back. Fear. Guilt. Hope.All tangled together. Dammit. Not still.“I brought something.” I said quietly, lifting the bag a little.Sophia blinked like she’d forgotten how to speak. Then she stepped as

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!    Chapter 223 – Are you sad?

    SOPHIA’S POV The sun filtered gently through the curtains, casting warm stripes across the wooden floor. For once, the house was quiet – not with the eerie kind of silence that came from something being wrong, but the kind that only came after a storm. I stood in the kitchen, barefoot, a mug of tea cradled in my hands. “Ow, hot.” I burned my fingers as I dipped it in the mug to taste the tea. Then replied myself, “Of course it's hot you dummy. You just made it.” I sighed and leaned my head lightly against the cabinet door as I stared at the empty hallway beyond. The twins were still asleep, for now. I had let them sleep in. I’d taken the day off. No Kate, no kitchen, no demands. I texted her before dawn. “Can’t come in today. Family stuff. I trust you.” I didn’t say more, and she didn’t ask. She just sent back a thumbs-up and a heart. I knew she would understand even with no explanation. The truth was, I didn’t even know how to put words to what had happened last night. I wa

  • Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together!   Chapter 222 – Promised him everything and delivered hell

    VICTORIA'S POVThe air reeked of stale beer, sweat, and desperation. Ew.But, it was exactly the kind of place I’d expect to find a disgraced Alpha drowning in his own failure. Go figure.The bar was tucked into the corner of a forgotten alley, away from prying eyes by broken neon signs and shattered dreams. How do the humans say it again? Ahh, yes. What a boulevard of broken dreams.I stood outside for a moment, letting my eyes adjust to the dim glow bleeding through the fogged windows. The faint thundering boom of music sounded from within – some cheap EDM beat vibrating through shitty speakers – and over all of that, somehow louder than it all, the rough voices of men exchanging bets, boasts, and laughter that reeked of low intelligence.I pushed the door open.The warmth inside hit me like a wall, thick with body heat and alcohol fumes. It was a human dive, alright. Ugh.Cheap wood paneling, flickering lights, a couple of dart boards with knives sticking out of them. A fight was b
