ROMAN.

Waking up to a scream has never been ideal. But waking up to Monica screaming is entirely a different thing.

The marking and the bleeding have already scared me to death earlier, and hearing the sound of pure pain and anguish from her is just the cherry on top of the big fucked up mountain. I jolt awake, my heart beating so fast in my chest that I'm pretty sure I could have a heart attack any moment.

I turn to Monica on the bed, pulling her towards me so that I can see her face. She's pale, and tears are running down her cheeks. My panic forces me to look at the spot on her neck to check some anomalies, but things seem to be normal on that front.

Her eyes aren't open yet. I shake her body, trying to take her out of it. "Monica, wake up!”

That does the trick. Her eyelids fly open, her eyes flitting around the room like she's looking for something. When she sees me, she erupts into a sob, getting up and throwing herself in my arms.

"Oh, Roman," she weeps into my shoulder. "I thou

  • His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now   One Hundred Twenty-One

    ROMAN.I try to struggle against the effect of the wolfsbane but I know for a fact that there’s no way around it once it’s in your bloodstream. Still, I call on my wolf spirit to give me enough energy to get through this and get out of this car, but it’s completely silent in my head.Yara strokes my hair and smiles at me. “I didn’t think you’d fall easily into the same trap as your father did. He was like that, eager to save. Eager to help. But it bit him right back in the ass in the end.”My temper flares. I’m so angry I could have killed her right then and there if I was in full strength. I try to lift my hand and only my fingers twitch.“I’m going to kill you,” I manage to say, my words still coming out slurred. “I’m going to bash your fucking head against the wall.”“What happened to not hurting women?” Yara asks sarcastically. “Did you happen to forget your values just with a little suffering? Oh, Roman… we’re going to have so much fun watching you fall from power.”I clench my f

  • His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now   One Hundred Twenty

    MONICA.I never thought seeing Larissa again would make me feel so much hatred, but here we are.This is the same girl who clothed me at some point, who dined with me and shared everything with me. And I shared everything back. From food to my personal life to my dressed and my wine. This is the girl I treated like the little sister I never had. I faced a Creature to save her. I would have been alright getting mauled if if meant not bringing any harm to her.Now all I can think about is what the Disciple showed me about her and Yara. How they happily betrayed me and Roman—especially Roman, who have done nothing but be good to them.I simply don't understand."So it is true," I say in a low voice. "You do serve the Disciple. You and your mother."Larissa rises to her feet from her insultingly low bow. "We do serve him, my lady. I'm sure you finally met and you know what your relationship to him is. He's a wonderful man who has great plans for Terra Lycaon. We all fully believe in him."

  • His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now   One Hundred Nineteen

    ROMAN.“She’s your daughter?” I shake my head. The pain in the back of my head is getting more intense, and I don’t know if it’s because of this information or because the wound is getting worse. “I… I don’t understand. Her mother was a Human. She had cancer, and that was the whole reason why she got into that kind of work….”“That was my friend,” the Creature whispers. “She found Monica when she was killed by the Disciple. He tried to take her back but she gave him a time period, and he miraculously agreed. He believed that she would make good with her promise out of fear, but she tried to mask the scent of Monica and hide her from the world. It was working, but then you found each other.”Guilt starts to gnaw at my guts. I know that I consider it my biggest blessing to have found Monica when I did, but I can't even imagine how bad that must have been for her.No wonder the Creature attacks have gotten worse when Monica came around. Some of the Elders tried to pin it as her being unl

    MONICA.It had to be a lie. There’s simply no way it could be the truth. I look at the darkness where his face is supposed to be and I know deep down that I can’t trust it.“I made you,” the Disciple says in a low voice, and there’s a hint of raspiness in it that tells me that he enjoys sharing that fact. “You belong to me. Not to Roman, not to Terra Lycaon. At least, not the one that exists today. You belong to the future I’m going to make. With you by my side, in full power, no one will be able to stop us.”I can feel it from him, the waves of greed. I would even say that it’s hunger. It’s like hearing a delusional man stuck in the desert for so long, describing a feast that they’ve never had.“What do you plan to do?” I ask, stalling, stepping back.There must be a way I can still escape him. There has to be a way for me to get home and tell everyone about what he plans to do.But every step I take backward, he closes with another step forward until we’re face to face again. I can

  • His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now   One Hundred Seventeen

    ROMAN.Years of seeing this thing as the enemy didn’t allow me to get my guard down. I shake my head, backing away from it. “No, I can’t come with you.”As soon as I say that, I immediately recoil. What am I even doing here, talking to that thing? Did Cassandra get my head hit so hard that I’m starting to imagine things? I look in the distance and see that Cassandra is still being torn into pieces by the same Creatures. Janus is still nowhere to be found. The only thing keeping me from dying are the very things that I know killed my people before. If it’s possible for a Creature to look impatient, the one in front of me definitely looks like it. "We don't have much time. My people are already getting destroyed by that beast, and I only instructed them to fight before you come with me. I don’t want to lose them."The urgency in her voice makes me snap out of it for a moment. And that moment is enough for her to drag me by the back my shirt and out of the place."No, my friend is stil

    MONICA.The change in energy surrounding the Disciple causes the knot of dread in my stomach to lock up. He holds out his hand for me, his movement surprisingly graceful. I lift my hand, about to hold his and get this over with.But that’s when I feel the tug of energy from the portal and realize that it’s open again.I turn my body slightly, knowing that if I make a break for it, I might just make it.“It will all make sense soon,” he tells me, his tone gentle. “If you just come with me now, it’s all going to get better. Roman won’t be harmed. None of the people back in Terra Lycaon would be harmed. Take my hand.”It’s a request. Not a command. Like he’s really trying not to be too harsh with me. I don’t know what else that would do to me, because I already know that I can’t trust him.When I don’t move, he takes a step forward, emerging from the shadows. But the darkness seems to follow him. He extends his arms further, urging me to take it, but I also just take a step back.And bef
