Regret

Author: Stella YX
(Derek's POV)

I couldn't bear to let Sarah see me like this—an alpha reduced to such a pathetic state. I covered my eyes with my hand, feeling the warm mixture of blood and tears seeping between my fingers. My claws had dug so deeply into my palms that they'd drawn blood, and now that blood mingled with something I hadn't experienced in decades—tears.

The familiar weight of my overwhelming alpha presence felt fractured, splintering around me like shards of silver. My wolf, usually so controlled, howled in anguish inside me, a sound I couldn't release without shattering what little composure I had left.

"You're bleeding," Sarah observed, her voice flat.

I didn't respond. What was physical pain compared to this crushing weight in my chest?

Sarah left the room briefly, returning with something in her hand. Her beta wolf was still bristling with protective fury, but her expression had shifted slightly.

"If it weren't for this, I would never have let you into our den," she said coldly

  • The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back   A Cruel Choice

    (Derek's POV)I felt Samuel's panic before I heard his warning. His beta scent soured with fear as he urgently whispered, "Alpha Silverstone, hide the photograph. Your mother is coming."My fingers lingered on the image of Aria, her silver hair catching the light, her violet eyes gazing directly at the camera with that rare, genuine smile she so seldom showed. The one I'd secretly captured when she wasn't looking."What does it matter now?" I asked, my voice hollow. "My omega mate is dead."There was nothing left for me to fear. My wolf had already suffered the ultimate loss. What more could they possibly take from me?"Since they refused to let me die from silver poisoning," I continued, "I'll live. And they'll learn the consequences of saving a vengeful alpha."Samuel's face paled. "Alpha Silverstone, please—"The sound of claws clicking on the silver-reinforced floor grew louder, each step increasing Samuel's dread. I could smell his fear, sharp and acrid in the dim room of m

  • The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back   Silver Regrets

    (Derek's POV)I jerked awake with a gasp, my heart pounding against my ribcage. The nightmare clung to me like a second skin, more vivid than any dream I'd experienced in centuries of alpha life.In it, Aria stood before me, her silver hair gleaming in the moonlight, violet eyes filled with a serene acceptance that chilled me to my core."Take a picture of me," she'd said, her omega voice gentle yet firm. "As a memento before our contract expires."Even in the dream, I'd felt a surge of possessive need. "Anything," I'd promised. "Ask me for anything, and I'll give it."Her smile had been soft, tinged with something I couldn't identify. "Then later... may we be separated by the vastness of the hunting grounds and ancestral forests, never to cross paths again in life or death."Her words had cut deeper than any silver blade. The realization that she desired eternal separation—to never encounter me again, even in the afterlife—had shattered something fundamental within me.I blinke

  • The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back   Despair

    (Alexander's POV)I raced through the rain-slicked streets toward Sarah's apartment, my heart pounding with worry. The confrontation at Aria's silver memorial site had left me shaken, not just from the raw grief that had consumed me since her passing, but now from fear for Sarah's safety. Derek Silverstone had dragged her away with such unrestrained fury that I feared what he might do.After breaking free from Samuel Gray's restraint, I had ordered my enhanced pack guards to secure transportation and headed straight for Sarah's apartment. The journey felt agonizingly slow, even with the driver pushing the limits of the pack territory speed regulations.When I finally arrived, I burst through the door without knocking, my golden eyes scanning the modest living space frantically."Sarah?" I called out, my alpha voice tense with concern.Relief washed over me when I spotted her sitting on the living room sofa. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, but she appeared physically unh

  • The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back   Silver's Denial

    (Derek's POV)The weight of Sarah's words crushed me like a physical blow. I stood frozen in Aria's apartment, the echoes of her accusations ringing in my ears."She's gone, Derek. Aria is dead," Sarah repeated, her beta voice trembling with barely contained fury. "She underwent the Silver Return ritual yesterday. It's done."I shook my head, unable to accept what she was saying. My ice-blue eyes darted around the empty apartment, searching for any trace of silver hair, any whisper of violet eyes."No. Alexander would never allow it," I argued, grasping at straws. "He loved her too much. He would have tried to save her."Sarah's bitter laugh cut through the air."It wasn't his decision to make. It was Aria's request to undergo the Silver Return immediately after her wolf faded," she spat, her beta wolf bristling with protective rage. "Her final wish was to return to the ancestral hunting grounds as quickly as possible."The implication struck me like a silver dagger. Aria had be

  • The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back   Silver's Denial

    (Third person's POV)The night air hung heavy with tension at the Silver Return Ceremonial Grounds. Alexander Blackwood's words about Aria's death lingered in the space between them, each syllable striking Derek Silverstone like physical blows. His fingers curled tightly into fists, claws digging into his palms until thin rivulets of silver-essence blood trickled between his knuckles.The physical pain couldn't begin to compete with the agonizing ache that spread through his chest—a pain unlike anything he had ever experienced in his long life as an alpha. It radiated outward from his heart, a jolt reminiscent of silver poisoning, leaving every nerve ending throbbing with raw grief.Yet even as the pain threatened to overwhelm him, Derek's mind refused to accept the reality before him. His ice-blue eyes, usually cold and calculating, were now bloodshot and wild with fury and denial."This is absurd," he growled, his overwhelming alpha presence crackling with barely contained emotio
