Semua Bab Alpha's Regret After I Died : Bab 181 - Bab 190

Liz’s POV“Silas,” I breathed.Fear began to overwhelm every part of me. I'd already known in my heart that it was him, but a small part of me had held on to hope that it wouldn't be.He turned toward me slowly, and I could feel it—the power in the air around him. The confidence. The control.I tried to pull back, but the chains clanged loudly, biting into my wrists.“I don’t know what you want with me,” I said, my voice trembling, my throat still raw from screaming, “but please… don’t do this.”He didn’t answer.He didn’t even flinch.I clenched my jaw, even as my voice trembled. “Arthur will come for me. You won't get away with this”Silas still said nothing. But something shifted in the air. Like a storm pulling in.The woman’s footsteps stormed toward me, fast and vicious.A moment later, her fingers grabbed the cloth over my face and ripped it down. Before I could blink, her hand wrapped around my jaw, nails biting into my skin. She jerked my head up so I had no choice but to lo

Liz’s POV“What have you done to me?” The words tumbled from my mouth as the burning spread through my chest like wildfire.My body felt wrong. Not in pain, something worse. Like something inside of me was being drained, unravelled thread by thread. I was dizzy, my skin slick with sweat, my arms trembling so violently the chains rattled like they were laughing at me.I couldn’t breathe right.I couldn’t think.I lifted my head weakly, trying to focus on Silas, but he was nothing more than a blur standing at the altar of his twisted ritual.He didn’t answer.Of course, he didn’t.“Silas,” I rasped, “what… what did you make me drink?”Still nothing.My stomach turned, the air thick with the smell of ash, herbs, and sourness. My fingers twitched, bloodless and cold, as the dizziness pulled harder. I thought I was going to pass out.That was when he turned his head slightly and called, “Angelica.”Her name split through the air like a curse.Footsteps echoed, and I didn’t have to look to

Arthur’s POVI had torn through half the grounds already, Finn and my men trailing behind me, their questions drowned beneath the sound of my wolf snarling inside my chest.Hopelessness was crashing me from the inside out. Every inch of this pack had been searched more than once, and still there was no sign of Liz. Not her scent. Not a shred of her presence. I had men scouring the forests, the rivers, the caves. Messengers had gone out to every pack, their lands turned inside out by patrols, but the trail was empty.I clenched my fists, ready to order the guards to push further, to expand beyond the borders. We would rip this land apart if we had to. I didn't care that I could start a war with what I was doing; all I cared about was having Liz home safe with me, where she belonged.I turned my mouth open to give my next order when something caught my eye, making me stop. A guard came running towards us. As he reached us, he bent over, breath tearing out of him. “Alpha King,” he manag

Liz’s POV“I love you, Arthur.” The words slipped out of me, a broken whisper, my final tether. If this was the last breath I ever drew, I wanted it to be his name on my lips, his memory in my heart.The blade came down.Out of the corner of my eye, something moved fast. I thought it was nothing but a trick of my mind, one last flicker of hope before the end.But then steel clashed against stone, a sound that rang through the chamber like lightning splitting the earth. Silas was ripped away from me, his snarl cutting through the air as he slammed against the wall with such force the altar shook.I fell forward, my wrinkled hands scraping the cold floor, gasping for air I hadn’t realised I was holding. My heart hammered so violently I thought it might burst through my chest.This wasn’t a dream. This wasn’t my mind playing tricks.Someone was here.Silas staggered back to his feet, fury twisting his face. His blade rattled in his grip, his black eyes scanning the shadows. “Who dares?”

Liz’s POV“Vincent!” Alice’s voice rang out into the night, sharp and commanding.But there was no answer.Only silence… and the sound of something moving closer through the trees. Each crack of a branch, each crunch of leaves underfoot, made my stomach twist. We were being hunted.I felt sick. I wanted nothing more than to curl into myself, close my eyes, and sleep. Just sleep until it all went away. Pretend like this was nothing more than a bad dream.But Alice spun back toward me, her eyes fierce, her voice urgent. “Come on. We need to get out of here now.”I shook my head weakly, my body sagging against the log. “I… I can’t.” My words slurred, my strength was gone. Alice crouched down, sliding an arm under mine, pulling me to my feet. Pain shot through my legs, trembling so hard I thought they’d buckle beneath me. My old, frail body betrayed me again, every step agony. Tears slide down my cheeks, but I hardly felt them.I clung to her, my wrinkled fingers clutching her arm like
