Lahat ng Kabanata ng Alpha's Regret After I Died : Kabanata 151 - Kabanata 160

Carlos’s POVI stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my shirt, brushing a speck of lint from the collar.I hadn’t wanted to take the position not like this. Not with Lumian spiralling the way he had. But someone had to lead. Someone had to stop the bleeding. Someone had to look the pack in the eye and make them believe in something again.Lumian hadn’t taken it well. At first, he acted like it was some kind of betrayal. But the truth was, he hadn’t been in any state to lead. He was consumed and obsessed, Lost in his own guilt and grief when it came to Liz. He didn’t even fight me after the first few days. He just stopped showing up. Locked himself in his room, eyes hollow, drinking more than talking.The scent of coffee wafted from the kitchen. I walked in and poured myself a mug, needing the heat to ground me. My father sat at the table."Big day," he said."Yeah," I murmured, taking a sip.Then there was a knock at the door.My father went to stand, but I shook my head."I got it.

Liz’s POV“Liz,” Arthur’s voice was low, close.Warm fingers brushed along my jaw. “We’re here.”My eyes fluttered open, and for a second, I didn’t know where I was. The weight of sleep still dragged at me. I sat up slowly, blinking against the light, trying to remember how long we’d been driving.I looked around.The car was stopped. Outside the window stood towering trees, thicker than anything I’d seen before. And beyond those gates.Massive ones. Ancient iron twisted with thick vines, carved with markings I didn’t understand. They stood tall, guarding the entrance like silent giants. Behind them, shadows flickered.My stomach twisted.I turned sharply to Arthur. “I slept?”He nodded gently. “The whole way.”My chest tightened, guilt curling inside me. I hadn’t meant to sleep. I didn't want to waste a single second. Not when every moment counted. Not when time felt like it was slipping faster with every breath.What if those hours were all I had left?What if I’d closed my eyes a

Cecilia’s POVI stood there, frozen, watching him fall apart.Arthur was on his knees, cradling Liz in his arms. His arms wrapped around her, pulling her close, as if holding her body would be enough to bring her back. Her head rested against his chest. Her face was still, but looked peaceful.Arthur was shaking. Tears ran down his cheeks in steady, silent lines, soaking into her hair as he whispered her name again and again like it was the only word left that made sense.“Please, Liz… please… don’t leave me…”His voice didn’t sound like his anymore.There was no Alpha King in that voice. No strength.Just a boy. A broken boy, begging the world to give him back the one thing he couldn’t protect.Finn stood a few feet away, his eyes wide and unblinking, staring at his hands.They were covered in blood.Liz’s blood.I’d seen Finn fight a thousand battles. I’d seen him break bones and crush threats without flinching. I’d seen him return from war, soaked in red like it meant nothing.B

Cecilia’s POVI didn’t look back, I couldn’t. If I did, I’d fall apart. And I didn’t have the luxury of falling apart. Not when everyone else already had.I stormed through the trees, my feet dragging through the earth, my heart pounding so loud it drowned out everything else.Liz was gone, and they were all just sitting there.Arthur. Finn. Melissa.All of them frozen, broken with pain and grief.But I wasn’t. I still held hope in my heart, and I would until I saw with my own eyes that there was no flower to bring her back.My fists clenched at my sides as I approached the fence. The fence that shut us out, shut her out, like she didn’t matter.My breathing was fast and uneven. The cold bit at my skin, but I didn’t feel it. My rage burned hotter.I glared up at the towering iron, at the vines draped over the wall like they were something holy.I’d tried begging and that had got us no where. Arthur was my blood, my family. He loved Liz with all his heart, and that made her my family.

Cecilia’s POV“I’ll die if I have to”, I said, my voice shaking but strong. “But won't leave not before you help Liz.”Tatum’s head turned slowly, her eyes locking on mine. The weight of her stare was suffocating, like she could see straight through me.“You’re very brave for a little girl,” she said, her voice calm and even, but laced with danger. “But I cannot help you. Now leave while you still can.”“No.” The word came out louder than I expected. My heart was pounding so hard I thought it might burst, but I forced myself to stand my ground. “You have to help her.”Tatum moved then.She stormed toward me, her presence consuming the space between us until she stopped only inches away. Her magic sparked in her palm, forming a glowing sphere of energy that hummed with deadly power.I swallowed hard, my throat dry.“I do not take orders from anyone,” she said, her voice low and dangerous.I could have stepped back, but I didn’t. I held my ground.“Listen to me,” I said, my voice tremb
