Alpha's Regret After I Died 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 261 - 챕터 270

Angelica’s POVThe cave receded of wet stone and decay. The cold, damp air seeped into my weak, brittle bones. The air was stale, and every breath I took left a foul taste in my mouth. I had stopped trying to count how long I had been here.Time meant nothing in a place like this.There was no sun.No moon.No sound of life outside.Just darkness… and the slow, humiliating weakness spreading through my body. My hand gripped the stone wall beside me as I forced myself to stand. a wave of dizziness crashing through my head as I did. My knees buckled slightly, but I refused to fall.I would not die on the floor of some pathetic cave.Not like this.Not powerless and weak.My breathing was heavy as I slowly made my way toward the door of the cave. The faint light spilling through the cracks around the massive boulder at the entrance was the only thing breaking the darkness.Lumian had sealed it shut himself. His smug face flashed through my head as he rolled the rock into place. It sent

Lizs povAlice stood there staring at me with wide eyes. “No, you're shitting me. Lumian's a hybrid.” Her hand came up to her mouth as she bit down on her nails. “This has her written all over it, but why…” She turned away from us, taking a minute to let everything I'd just told her settle in her mind.I wished I had the answers that everyone wanted. I'd been trying to find an explanation myself. “Shes desprate,” Melissa said when no one else spoke. “With Silas dead and Liz talking back her powers, she needs someone to protect her.”Everything Melissa was saying made sense, but it didn't sit right. It all felt too messy to be something that Angelica had come up with. “I don't think it is.” Everyone's eyes snapped to me. “Angelica seems to always have a plan, but turning Lumian into a hybrid just seems to be out of control for her. Hybrids are unpredictable”I didn't know much about hybrids, only what I'd read in books. Until today, I'd never met one, but what I did know is that a ne

Lizs povI stood turning around to see myself for the first time in the mirror, my hair and make-up done. The dress sticking to my skin like it was home and my heart racing. “You look beautiful”, Diana said as she stepped closer to my side. “Are you ready?”My eyes found hers in the mirror. I couldn't answer her right away, instead I just stood there looking at myself.Not at the dress or how my hair fell perfectly into place, or the soft glow of my skin.But at me.The girl staring back didn’t look like the one who had once stood in front of a mirror preparing to marry Lumian. That girl had been nervous, unsure, and weak. Trying to convince herself she was happy.This…This felt different.My hand lifted slowly, pressing lightly over my chest.My heart was racing.But not from fear.From something so deep and overwhelming, it almost made my knees weak.“I am,” I said softly, a small smile spreading on my lips.Diana’s smile softened beside me, and I felt her hand squeeze my arm gen

Arthur's pov“The white petals are too much”, I said to Cecilia as she fixed my bowtie for the tenth time.Everything had to be perfect. Liz deserved it, and I needed to show her just how much I love her. “Arthur, stop!” Cecilia said, her eyes burning into mine. “The petals are perfect, Liz will love it.”“She's right,” Finn said in his calm voice. “And besides, there's no time shes hear.”My head snapped to where he was looking, sweeping over the sea of people all waiting for the same thing I was. The carriage came to a halt, and my heart began to pound in my chest. ‘Mate’, my wolf called in my mind.The door opened, and everything around me slowed. Alice and Diana started to walk down the aisle, but my eyes were locked on the carriage as Liz stepped out, taking her father's hand. A smile swept across her lips as her eyes lifted and locked onto mine. The world around me narrowed, fading away to just her.Everything in me stopped.I couldn't breathe.I never gave up hope that this

Liz's povHis lips touching mine made everything else around me fade away to nothing. My heart let go of every worry and bit of fear that had been carrying. I knew it wouldn't last, but that was okay because Arthur was finally mine and no one could take that from me. My hands tightened on him, pulling him closer without me even thinking about it. I needed to hold on to him just a little bit longer, just in case this moment slipped away from me.The warmth of him spread through me, my body tingling as it craved to have all of him.Loud bangs erupted above me, my heart leaping with fear as I pulled away from him. Looking up, the sky was alive with beautiful explosions. Gold and white burst across the darkness like the stars themselves had come down just for us. The light danced over everything, over the crowd, over the palace… over him.My breath caught.It was beautiful.My eyes slowly dropped from the sky back to his face, and everything inside me softened all over again. He hadn’t lo
