All Chapters of His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

MONICA.I’m breathing hard, and yet I can’t feel my own chest. I turn away from Andy, before I can say or do anything that neither of us would like.“Monica,” she calls out to me, and only then do I realize that I’m already far away from her. My feet are scurrying away from her, eager to ease the pain. “Monica, I’m still talking to you!”She says something more, but I’m no longer hearing things. Sounds, colors, and faces are blending together. I stumble out of the hospital, somehow getting into a taxi, and ending up in front of Jackie’s diner.I head inside, wrapping my coat tighter around myself. I make a beeline towards the counter, looking around until Jackie’s familiar, warm face looms into my consciousness.“Monica?” Jackie cups my face and shakes me. “Hey. What’s going on?” She sees the tears pooling in my eyes and she panics. “Hey, take over here for a while, will you, Katie? I’m going to be in my office with my best friend.”A small blonde girl takes over, and Jackie pushes me

ROMAN.“What the hell are you thinking?”Hyden follows me around as I enter my room to change my clothes. I know that I don’t have a lot of time, but if I show up looking like a fucking gladiator, then the whole jig would be up.“You can’t go back to the Human world,” Hyden continues, looking at Janus for help. “Tell him! Not after everything that happened with Cassandra! This is going to cause an outrage!”“I don’t care what anyone has to say,” I growl, turning to face him sharply. It’s taking all my willpower not to strangle him. “Get out of my way!”“Your Grace, think this through.” It’s Janus who blocks me now that Hyden is wheeling away from me. “Think of what this means to the people. Some Alphas are already disobeying you. If they formally challenge you, you would have to fight them to the death—”“Then that’s what I will do.”I’m almost at the door when Janus speaks again.“This Human woman… she’s not worth it.”“Alpha Janus,” August says, his voice hinting at a warning.He kn

MONICA.My mind is still protesting. Anxious. Angry.But it’s over for me.I can feel my body being carted off elsewhere. I hear the vague sound of police sirens. At some point I see the red and blue lights flashing, reflecting off a car window. I hear Roman’s voice and feel his warm touch against my thigh.Roman’s handsome face, covered in speckles of dried blood, loom above mine. He smiles. “We’re here. Just relax.”But I can’t relax. That’s the last thing that I want to do right now. I want to jump off his arms and run for my life, but my body is paralyzed. I can’t even feel my own chest.I can hear hushed whispers now, getting heated at first, but slowly coming to what sounds like agreement.I force myself to look, to open my eyes, to be awake for more than five seconds.And that’s when I see August’s face over mine. He’s looking into my eyes, worried.“This isn’t normal,” he mutters to himself. “Humans aren’t supposed to be able to enter this place. There’s magic in that gate. Sh

MONICA.I was so close.Or at least, that’s what I wanted to believe. Even when the brother’s directions, I couldn’t really figure out where to go. It didn’t help that the smell and layout of the place felt vaguely familiar. Like I’ve been here before….But that was impossible. I kept telling myself that as I ran and ran. This is a strange place with very strange people. If I can even call them that.That alone was enough to make me run for my life despite being barefoot and hungry. The fact that they’re not Human and I can feel it in my bones.And I was getting somewhere. The energy in that area in the forest was definitely different.So when Roman showed up seemingly out of nowhere, I was angry.However, at the same time, something inside me wanted him to catch me.That side is loud right now, as Roman trails his fingers down to my navel, slowly dipping lower until they’re threateningly close to my mound.His rock hard cock is pressing against me, as though demanding to be noticed.

MONICA.“Wait!” I call out to Roman, struggling against Augusts’s grasp. “Is that what you want me to do? Just… be your prisoner?”Roman doesn’t even answer me. He just heads to the other direction without as much as a glance back. I try to chase after him, but August pulls me back. “Don’t make a scene. It’s important that no one sees you.”“But where is he going? What’s going to happen to me?”“I’ll explain everything when we get inside, okay?” The patience in his tone is refreshing, as much as I don’t want to admit. “Right now, you’re cold and I know that you’re hungry. More than that, I know you’re confused.”It’s comforting to know that he at least tries to understand me, but the one I really want to talk to is Roman. He’s no longer here, though. He disappears into the side of the building, and now I can’t hear his footsteps anymore.August leads me back into the palace, and despite my situation, I can’t help but look at it in awe. Now that I’m not in a hurry, I can see every deta
