Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together! Chapter 174 – We Let Her Go Once
NATHAN’S POVThe house was warm, the soft glow of light spilling through the windows. I stood at the doorstep, my grip tightening around the box of toys in my hands. The scent of home – hers and theirs – wrapped around me, laced with something deeper. Something that made my chest constrict.Lucas.I could still feel the lingering heat of their kiss through the mate bond. The sharp, searing pain of it had settled deep in my gut, a wound that refused to close. My wolf prowled inside me, restless, and furious, but I forced him down. This wasn’t the time to lose control.I had come here for my children.And yet, as I lifted my hand to knock, the door swung open before I could.Sophia stood in front of me, her breath catching in her throat.I saw it all in a split second – the widening of her eyes, the way her lips parted like she had been about to say something else. But then, just as quickly, she masked it. Her expression hardened, her posture straightened, and whatever moment of hesitat

SOPHIA'S POVThe door clicked shut behind Nathan, leaving behind an almost suffocating silence. My hands trembled, still warm from where I had touched his chest, from where I had stopped him.I exhaled, pressing my fingers to my temples, trying to will away the chaos brewing inside me. The bond between us was still thrumming, a faint echo of emotions that weren’t entirely mine. Frustration. Determination. A deep, aching need.Lucas’s voice broke through the silence.“Well.”I turned to face him, expecting sharp words, anger – anything that matched the tension in the air. But instead, he just stood there, watching me. His expression wasn’t furious, not yet. If anything, it was too controlled. Too calm.He ran a hand through his hair, exhaling slowly. “That was something.”I let out a breathless, almost bitter laugh. “Yeah.”Lucas crossed the room in a few easy steps and stopped just in front of me. His hands found my arms, warm and grounding. “Are you okay?”The sincerity in his voice

LUCAS' POV I walked away from Sophia’s home, my pace steady, unhurried, measured. On the surface, I was calm. Composed. Inside, my thoughts moved like a current beneath still but moon-pulled waters. Tonight had been inevitable. Nathan was always going to appear at some point, and when he did, it was bound to be disruptive. He wasn’t just a memory or a closed chapter in Sophia’s life – he was something unfinished. An unfinished chapter in her story. And if I had any doubts before, tonight I had erased them. I had seen it. Felt it. The pull between them was subtle yet undeniable. It wasn’t something either of them could turn off. That didn’t mean she had chosen him. But it meant something. Stepping deeply into the night, inhaling deeply as the cool night air filled my lungs. I felt as though I needed this – a moment away from the weight pressing on my chest, away from everything swirling in my head. Tilting my head back, I looked up at the sky. The stars were scattered across t

SOPHIA'S POVI didn’t sleep.No. I don't think that's right. I didn't sleep for the simple reason that I couldn't. Not after everything that happened. That was happening.Even though exhaustion pressed down on me, my mind wouldn’t quiet. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Nathan standing in my living room, his presence like a storm held back by sheer will. I saw Lucas, composed but brimming with unspoken tension. And I saw myself – trapped between them, torn in ways I wasn’t ready to confront.My lips still tingled from the kiss I had shared with Lucas just moments before Nathan arrived. Guilt curled in my stomach, but I wasn’t sure if that was the reason I felt so unsettled.I let out a shaky breath and rubbed my temples. The house was silent now. The twins were asleep, and Lucas had left after hesitating at the door. “Think about what you want, Sophia.” His words looped in my head, taunting me.What did I want?I swallowed hard. For years, I had only focused on survival, never sto

LUCAS' POVAs I stared at the beautiful woman beside me, I almost couldn't manage to convince myself that it wasn't an angel sent to me. An angel who promised heaven and whispered decadence, sinful secrets written all over her. It all seemed too good to be true.I thought back to how I'd gotten into this position. How all my dreams had come true and more….*******Sophia had been quiet all morning. I could tell she was trying to act normal – smiling at the twins, making breakfast, going through the motions – but I wasn’t fooled. Her mind was elsewhere.I didn’t have to guess where.I had gotten to the house some moments after they had gotten back from their exercise. Grace had been there then left shortly afterwards. I leaned against the kitchen counter, watching her move about the kitchen. She looked tired, and I wasn’t just talking about the faint shadows under her eyes. There was a weight pressing down on her shoulders, and I hated that I couldn’t lift it for her.“You should get s

SOPHIA'S POV Everything had happened at once but I could feel the build-up. It was one that had been a long time coming, a rope that had been stretched taut, to its limit, and had finally snapped. It had been everything I had imagined and more. The early morning sunlight streamed through the window, and the skyline had a pretty view. Everything seemed coated in different hues, the afterglow of the night before still in my eyes, on my skin. I turned on the bed, snuggling deeper into him, my hand resting on his chiseled chest. Yesterday had happened so fast. One moment, I was on my way to the airport. The next, I was on my way to heaven and coming off the high of an incredible orgasm. ✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧YESTERDAY✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✧ The hotel room was… Too nice. A king-sized bed with crisp white linens. Soft, dim lighting which cast shadows against the walls. The faint scent of lavender drifts from the bathroom. Everything about it felt intimate, intentional, like a space meant for things I wasn’t r

NATHAN'S POVTheon scoffed, crossing his arms as he leaned against the workbench. "You're telling me you dragged me out here to help you make gifts for six-year-olds?"I ignored the sarcasm. “Not just any gifts. They need to mean something.”I had been sitting in my office, my mind not really focused on anything. Not even thoughts of work could get them out of my mind.My twins.My children.I was– no, am, a father.All this time. I had children and they had to grow up thinking they had a father who didn't care about them. Or worse, was dead. My jaw ticked at the thought and I could feel my wolf growl within. He was not happy with that thought.And even though we had no one to blame but ourselves, it doesn't mean I couldn't do anything about it. Purpose fueling each step, I strode out of my office, calling out to Priya, “Cancel all my meetings for the day. I have something important to attend to.”“Thank the Lord. Does that mean we can go home too?” She called out to me.Without tur

NATHAN'S POV Inside, the house smelled warm. Lived in. It wasn’t just a place where Sophia and the twins stayed – it was a home. That realization hit harder than I expected. The warmth of Sophia’s home wrapped around me the moment I stepped inside. It was lived in – filled with soft laughter, scattered toys, and the faintest lingering scent of her. Alex wasted no time, grabbing my hand and dragging me toward the living room. “Come see what we made.” He said excitedly. Alexia followed at a more measured pace, watching with careful eyes. She was wary, but she didn’t shy away. That was progress. Mrs. Jackson closed the door behind us with a slight huff. “Well, don’t just stand there like a statue, Nathan. Shoes off before you track dirt in here.” I blinked at the scolding but complied, taking off my boots. It had been a long time since someone had spoken to me like that. Alex pulled me toward a small table covered in papers, crayons, and what looked like… sticks? No, not sticks.

Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together! Chapter 232 – You're our dad?
SOPHIA'S POVI sat in the living room, fingers tightly curled into fists in my lap, my eyes fixed on the coffee table in front of me. The weight of everything that had happened today pressed down on me. The note, the disappearance, the fear that had gripped my chest when I found the twins’ beds empty – everything felt like it was spiraling out of control.Daniel sat across from me, leaning forward, his face creased in concern. He had tried to get me to talk about it since he arrived, but I kept finding ways to sidestep the darker details. It felt too heavy to say aloud, too impossible to believe, but I had no choice.“I don't get it, Sophia.” He said, his voice calm but laced with disbelief. “How did they just... disappear like that? You said you left them in bed.”I nodded, rubbing the back of my neck as if that would ease the tension building there. “Yeah, I did. I left them sleeping. Nothing unusual. But then... I found the note. It said, 'I'm here for you, Sophia. Miss me?'” I swa
Alpha's Regret: Mommy, Daddy, We Want to Be Together! Chapter 231 – Soon, she’ll be fucking mine!
MALACHI’S POV The night was thick with shadows, but I was no stranger to darkness. I was, in fact, its most loyal companion. It embraced me, welcomed me, as it had since the day I was driven from the pack, from everything I once had. And now, from my place just outside Sophia’s house, I could feel the tension tightening around me, wrapping like a knot. I stayed hidden, cloaked in the deep darkness of the alleyway, the dim glow of the porch lights casting long, skeletal shadows across the yard. The sound of the wind moved through the trees, but my attention never moved from the house. The world beyond was irrelevant. Unimportant. All that mattered now was her. Sophia. I couldn’t stop myself from watching her, even if every part of me screamed that I should’ve been closer, taking what was rightfully mine. Sophia, with her delicate beauty, the curve of her neck, the soft flicker of light catching the strands of her dark hair. She was standing in the doorway, her expression a mixt
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
