Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate Chapter 284: The Mask Falls
Julian’s POVEmpty bottles covered every available surface of the camp while fighters shared stories of the battle. Someone had found an old guitar, and now half the room belted out victory songs.I nursed my beer near the corner, watching Penelope move through the crowd like sunlight itself. She tossed her red hair back as she laughed—really laughed—for the first time I could remember. The sound made my chest ache with something deeper than the wounds I’d collected during the fighting.“Did you see that masked guy?” Ryan shouted over the music. “Came out of nowhere like some kind of ghost!”“Took down twelve Rogues single-handed,” added Nora, her face flushed from drinking. “Never seen anything like it.”“Who was he?” asked Tom from the eastern patrol. “Had to be one of our guys, right? Nobody else could have known the terrain that well.”Penelope raised her voice above the chatter. “Whoever he was, he saved us today. Without his intervention, we would have been overwhelmed.”She cli
Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate Chapter 283: The Masked Warrior
Julian’s POVDawn mist clung to the valley floor as Rogue forces prepared for the assault on Riverside Settlement. Forty-three fighters spread through the treeline, their faces painted with ritual scars that marked them as followers of the Rogue King’s inner circle.I wore the same black combat gear as the others, but underneath lay silver mesh armor and weapons that would serve very different purposes when the battle began.“Remember,” called the Rogue King, “terror is the primary objective. We want survivors to spread stories about Rogue strength and territorial weakness.”Nods and grunts of agreement from the assembled fighters. I made the same sounds while my enhanced hearing tracked the defensive positions I’d helped establish weeks ago. Penelope’s people were ready, hidden in carefully prepared ambush sites that would turn this raid into a massacre.If everything went according to plan.“Julian, you take the eastern approach with squad three,” the Rogue King ordered. “Civilian ev
Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate Chapter 282: Double Lives
Julian’s POVThe underground chamber stank of wet stone and old blood. I climbed down the narrow stairs, my enhanced hearing catching conversations before I even reached the bottom.The Rogue King’s voice boomed above the others—same arrogant tone, same casual dismissal of human life.Three months ago, this place had filled me with righteous anger about my father’s death. Now I saw it clearly: a gathering of killers and madmen following a monster who’d turned grief into a weapon against me.“Julian!” The Rogue King’s scarred face split into what passed for a smile. “Our most valuable asset arrives.”I slipped into the circle of his lieutenants, nodding respectfully while my mind cataloged every face, every weapon, every possible escape route. The enhanced abilities made reading their micro-expressions almost laughably easy.“The Iron Mountain raids went better than expected,” he continued. “Your intelligence about their patrol schedules was perfect. We hit them exactly when they were w
Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate Chapter 281: Close Quarters
Penelope’s POVThe Council chamber felt smaller than usual as territorial leaders filed in for the evening briefing. I chose a seat near the back, hoping to avoid the politics that always accompanied these sessions.The last thing I needed was another confrontation with conservative Alphas who questioned every decision I made.Dominic entered, scanning the room until his eyes found mine. The brief contact made my pulse quicken—a reaction I’d been fighting since our encounters became impossible to forget.I looked away quickly, focusing on my intelligence reports while he settled into his traditional position near the front of the chamber.Distance was safer. Boundaries were necessary. Physical attraction had no place here.“The Millbrook operation demonstrated effective coordination between territorial forces,” the Elder announced, calling the session to order. “Alpha Female Penelope will provide tactical assessment.”I stood and moved to the presentation area, acutely aware of Dominic
Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate Chapter 280: First Light
Julian’s POVThe bathroom mirror reflected the same face I’d always known, though something had changed.Three days had passed since the enhancement ritual, and while my features looked unchanged, there was a vitality there that hadn’t existed before. Healthier somehow, more defined without being different.The coffee mug sat on my counter. I reached for it carefully, remembering yesterday’s accident when I’d grabbed too hard and shattered the handle. My strength had increased, but more importantly, my awareness of that strength was sharper, more precise.My phone vibrated with a message from Penelope: Council meeting at 0900. Need intelligence update from your contacts.The same courtesy she’d always shown, but now I could see patterns in her communication that had been invisible before. The slight formality that kept distance between us. The boundaries that maintained our working relationship without allowing deeper connection.She still saw me as useful but unremarkable. That needed
Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate Chapter 279: Through Silver Fire
Julian’s POVDawn light filtered through the cave entrance, but I couldn’t lift my head to see it properly. The second phase of enhancement had begun sometime before sunrise, bringing new kinds of pain that made the initial reconstruction feel gentle by comparison.My skin felt like it was being flayed and regrown repeatedly. Every few minutes, another wave of cellular renovation would sweep through my body, tearing down existing tissue and rebuilding it according to the new template.The silver needles channeled each transformation, keeping the process controlled instead of letting it spiral into chaos.I’d lost track of time completely. The ritual texts had warned about temporal disorientation—when your entire existence becomes focused on surviving the next second, hours and minutes lose all meaning.My phone lay somewhere beyond reach, its screen dark and useless.Thirst burned my throat, but I couldn’t risk moving to reach the water bottles I’d brought. The enhancement compounds re
