*****EMMA'S POV*****

I stood inside my room alone, staring out the window into empty space. My arms were folded tightly under my breast as my mind drifted back to when I refused to take Darrell's case.

I should be happy right now. I should feel relieved that he finally decided to leave me alone. But why does my chest feel so heavy? Like something's crushing me from the inside?

His eyes still haunt me—the way they looked at me when I turned him away. Dark and hurt. I placed my hand on my chest, and I felt my heart beating faster, like I'm scared of something I can't name. Like maybe I was the one who messed up and not him.

Did I make a mistake?

Fuck! I should've looked at that file before I said anything. I should've listened instead of just... reacting.

Whatever. He probably has tons of lawyers dying to take his case. It doesn't have to be me, right?

Then my phone rang. It's Alex.

I sighed heavily as I looked at his name showing on the screen, and I regretted that all this hap

  • THE ALPHA'S REGRET    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FOUR

    The trip back to Korea wasn’t difficult as Jane had arranged a smooth passage using routes and connections Alex didn’t even know she had. She’d also sent the hospital name where Emma was being held: a private facility Alex owned. As soon as we had all that, plans for an extraction began immediately as the place was tight on security, which bothered me because he shouldn’t have known we were here.I sat at the far end of the table, watching the projector as it threw the hospital layout onto the wall. One of Jane’s men talked us through the entry and exit points.I also came here with my own men, but I need Jane’s men because we need help for local support.Then Carlos, Jane's right handed man, excuse himself, only on to return back a minute later saying, “ I just got a call that your wife attacked Alexander and ripped off his left ear.”A smile almost burst out of me, sharp and ugly, as I couldn't believe Emma just did that.Like seriously?How the hell was he going to look like now?

    ******FLASHBACK*******(ONE YEAR AGO)As consciousness clawed its way back to me, my eyes flew open. I sucked in a sharp breath, gasping like someone pulled from drowning. And what I first felt was pain.Not the sharp, screaming kind of pain that makes you yell, but the slow, burning agony that starts deep in your bones and spreads outward, like fire devouring dry wood.Every breath felt like inhaling glass.Every tiny movement sent waves of torment tearing through me."Alpha."Aiden's voice cut through as he quickly rushed closer to my side.“Are you alright?” He asked but right now I am not.I turned my head slowly, gritting my teeth against the pain the movement caused. The only thing I managed to ask was,"How long?" My voice came out as a rasp, barely recognizable as my own."Two days," Aiden said quietly. "You've been unconscious for two days."Two days. Fuck!That has been quite long.I tried to sit up, but my body screamed in protest and I felt Aiden hand on my skin, gently p

    "To be sure everything is alright with her, I'd suggest running more tests including cognitive function assessments, just to make sure there's no lasting damage. But the fact that she's speaking coherently, recognizing faces, and showing emotional responses, I think these are all very good signs."I took a heavy breath, at least relieved that she was okay.I just hoped she'd be able to overcome everything else.I glanced at her, only to see her head darting back and forth between us like she was watching a tennis match. Her brow was furrowed, and I could practically see the wheels turning in her head as she tried to make sense of what was happening."We should probably do a full neurological workup," he continued. "And I'll want to monitor her for the next couple of days to make sure there are no complications. Her vitals look good, but with a coma this extended...""Excuse me!"Emma's voice cut through our discussion, sharp and firm.Both our heads turned toward her at the same time,

    *****DARRELL'S POV******The moment her eyes opened, the moment I saw those beautiful blue eyes flutter and focus on me, I felt like I could breathe again for the first time in a year.A whole fucking year.It’s been hell. A miserable, empty, endless hell. That I was even hardly myself. Every single second, every single minute of watching her motionless in that bed, hooked up to machines for a whole three hundred and sixty-five days, was a torture for me.But now she was awake. She’s back to me, looking at me with that bright smile on her face. And seeing that smile was like watching the sun rise after the longest, darkest night of my life."Darell," she whispered, and her voice was hoarse from disuse, but it was the most beautiful sound I'd ever heard.I moved closer to the bed, my heart pounding so hard I thought it might burst right out of my chest. "Thank goodness you're back," I breathed, my voice cracking. I leaned down, pressing my forehead gently against hers, our noses brus

    Even if he killed someone right in front of everyone, he will still be able to crawl his way out. And that is Alexander Song."It was you," I said, my voice shaking with rage and grief and a thousand other emotions I couldn't name. "You did this.”"I did no such thing, Em." Alex replied, but there was no real conviction in his denial. "Look here, I know you are pissed but…..”“No,” I shook my head. “Don't try to lie. I already know everything about you. So you don't need to lie to me again. You definitely did this, Alex. You did this to him.” Tears were streaming down my face now, hot and endless.“Why? I did everything you asked. Everything! I left him. I divorced him. I came back to you. I agreed to marry you. I gave up everything for you, and it still wasn't enough, was it? You still had to destroy him completely!"My voice was rising.“Emma, you need to calm down. The doctor said….”"Why?!" I demanded, and my voice broke on the word. "Why did you do this? He was no threat to you a

    My eyelids felt heavy, weighted down with exhaustion that went bone-deep. It took effort to open them, and force my eyes to focus on the white ceiling above me. How long had I been here?I had no idea.Then I remembered what happened last.And what I heard.No.That definitely can't be possible?I knew Darell. For that to happen at this exact time when I needed an escape route, I think it might be one of his tricks.He…..is definitely okay.I took a deep breath, trying to stay calm. And to believe that the news was just something Darell did to ruin my wedding with Alex, but there was just this part of me that just won't stop having that bad thought and I found my hand hitting my chest as it was just getting more hurt as I kept thinking of it.And as minutes went by, I kept getting more worried. Fear creeping in.No. “I need to confirm this by myself.” I said, unable to hold it in any longer.My hands moved to the IV line taped to my arm and I started pulling at it, desperate to get
