Unbroken Regret Chapter 9
Ten years later, Adrian was forty.In the middle of a business negotiation, he suddenly collapsed.The examination revealed final-stage wolf-soul degeneration.The healer placed the scans before him. The fracture left when Elara's wolf soul vanished had never healed. Ten years of alcohol, exhaustion, and rejected treatment had allowed it to consume what remained of his own wolf soul."If you had accepted treatment when we first warned you, you might have had years more," the healer said.Adrian was calm. There was even a trace of relief in his eyes."Will it hurt the way it hurt Elara?""The cause is different. The end will be the same.""That's good."Adrian smiled, and for the first time in years, genuine warmth touched his face."At last, I'll understand how much pain she endured."He refused aggressive treatment and accepted only palliative care for the pain.He transferred control of the company and placed most of his fortune in the foundation so it could help more patients with w

Selene was arrested the morning after Adrian submitted the complete evidence.Her family's lawyers secured her release before trial. She immediately tried to flee pack territory under a false name, but Adrian's Beta intercepted her at the border within days.At trial, the ceremonial footage, recovered messages, account logs, and the clinic clerk's testimony left her nowhere to hide.She was convicted of poisoning, fraud, evidence tampering, and misappropriation of funds. Her attempt to flee added another two years to the sentence, and her apartment was liquidated to repay what she had taken.Only when the handcuffs closed around her wrists after the verdict did she understand that Adrian would never save her again.His parents avoided the poisoning charge because there was no proof they knew about the silver, but the council expelled them for financing the false dossier and obstructing the inquiry. Their public confession cleared Elara's name before the entire pack.Adrian did not atte

Adrian woke in the pack clinic with a needle still embedded in the back of his hand.The instant his memory returned, he bolted upright and tore it free."Where is she? Where is Elara?"He roared the words, his eyes bloodred.His Beta entered with a lawyer. Both men wore grave expressions."The Luna's body is here at the clinic. The healers confirmed that she died when her wolf soul disappeared completely."His Beta lowered his voice."We need her mate's signature...""I'm her mate! I'll sign. I'm taking her home!"Adrian struggled to climb out of bed.The lawyer held out a document envelope."Alpha, there are things you need to know first."It contained the information Adrian had ordered his Beta to investigate before he left the banquet.With shaking hands, he opened the envelope.Investigation reports, photographs, bank statements, copies of medical records...The proof was there in black and white, overwhelming and undeniable.Selene had slipped silver poison into the ceremonial wi

Adrian stared at his phone, his Beta's report still roaring in his ears.I have been diagnosed with wolf-soul degeneration, just like my father. The healer says I have seven days at most.A high, relentless ringing filled his head.Suddenly, he remembered exactly what had happened the day she sent that message.He had been at Selene's house. She had picked up his phone and smiled."Elara is asking you for money again. I'll transfer it for you."And then...There had been nothing else.He had never even looked closely enough to see what Elara had written.Could she truly have wolf-soul degeneration?But Selene had investigated her.His parents had also told him again and again that Elara was a drifter who made a living by conning wealthy men.He had refused to believe them at first.But how could the timing have been so perfect? The moment their mating ceremony ended, Elara claimed she had been poisoned with silver and urgently needed three hundred thousand dollars for treatment.Pain s

I could not bear the thought of returning to that house, so I went to my father's old apartment instead.My phone vibrated.Adrian had sent me his first written message in three years.Come back and make sweet porridge for Selene. You owe her an apology.I stared at it for a long time, almost wanting to laugh.This time, when I called, he finally answered. Impatience sharpened every word."Did you hear me? Selene said the only thing she wants is your--""Adrian."I interrupted him, my voice barely above a whisper."If I died, would you grieve for me?"The question had haunted me for months.At last, I had found the courage to ask it aloud.Silence held the other end of the line for several seconds.Then his voice rose sharply."What the hell is wrong with you lately? Who taught you to keep saying such morbid things? If you need money, then ask for it. It's not as if I won't give it to you!""Where are you? I'll come right now."In the end, he still did not answer my question.It no lon

My face went even paler.Not long ago, the damage left by the silver poison had cost me our pup.The pup's own father had never believed it existed.On the day I miscarried, I called him again and again until my voice broke.He decided I was staging another crisis to squeeze money from him. He sent eight hundred and eighty-eight dollars, silenced my calls, and stayed beside Selene instead.That was the day I decided to leave him.Before I could petition the elders to dissolve our bond, the healer diagnosed me with wolf-soul degeneration.By the time I returned home, grief and sickness had hollowed me out. I smashed everything in the room and tore our mate-bond certificate in half."Why won't you answer me? Why do you keep sending money? What is this supposed to mean?"Struggle and pain filled Adrian's eyes, but the words he forced out were still merciless."Isn't this what you wanted? Or was the transfer not enough?"I clawed at my hair until pain tore across my scalp. "If you truly ha
