Semua Bab THE ALPHA'S REGRET : Bab 11 - Bab 20

"You don't have to turn red, okay? It's just the way you're analyzing his feelings and how you seem to be trying to understand his perspective... You sounds like someone who still cares.""No, that's not it and why would I still care about him?" My voice came out sharper than I meant it to. "I'm just... shocked to see him again. I can't believe he would even say such horrible things to me. I swear, when I was with him yesterday, I felt nothing but pure anger.""Okay, if you say so."And just then, My phone buzzed against the table, and when I picked it up, my face heated as I read the message. "And who's making our dear Emma blush like this?" Carmen asked in a teasing voice, wiggling her eyebrows.I couldn't help but smile, even though I was trying to fight it. "It's Alex."After that whole drama Darrell pulled in front of everyone, I was so embarrassed that I couldn't even think of going back inside. So I decided to head home straight. But when I got outside, Alex was already there

My chest tightened as I remembered all those late-night conversations Emma and I used to have. How her eyes would light up when she talked about having a whole bunch of pups someday, how we'd teach them to shift and run through the forest together. All those dreams we shared, all those plans we made.Now it all felt like some stupid fairytale I'd made up in my head.I shook my head hard, trying to clear it. This couldn't be real. Emma was hiding something—she had to be. When I confronted her after her elopement, she didn't even answer my questions properly. “ Neither did she deny it.” Another voice from my head said but I ignored it.There were pieces missing from this puzzle, dark corners I couldn't see into.But what if... what if that child really was mine?What if that's exactly why Emma left six years ago? What if she found out she was pregnant and thought I'd choose my pack duties over her and our baby? What if she made up that whole elopement story to protect herself and...M

My thumb hovered over Mom's contact on my phone screen as I didn't even know what to do. I know they will soon see the news about me and she’d really be sad. I really want to call her so badly. I want to hear her and Dad's voices, to know if they are okay and ask how they've all been these past few years.But every time I tried to press the number, this heavy guilt would crash into my chest like a wave.How could I face her after what I did? After abandoning them without even leaving a single message or checking on them for the past six years? How could I?I let out a shaky sigh and dropped my phone onto the table, as I couldn't bear to do it.I just couldn't.I'm such a terrible daughter. I know. And I also know that they would never be able to forgive me for what I have done. But I also wish that they would be able to understand that leaving at that time was the best thing to do. I hate seeing my father being weak and ridiculed in front of the entire pack. I hate it.Leaving them al

DARRELL'S POV"Hey," I said softly into the phone."Hey, stranger. Just checking if you're still breathing over there." Amaya's voice came through warm and teasing, like always. I could picture her rolling her eyes even though I couldn't see her.I let out a tired laugh. "Barely.""I can tell.”“ Did something happen over there?”“No, everything is fine. I called because mother asked about you. She wants to know when you're coming home, and she's a little angry that you just left your responsibilities here."I had to bite my lip to keep from laughing. Mom my ass. She's the one who is curious about when I'm coming back home."Mom, huh?" I said, not even trying to hide the smile in my voice.There was a pause, then a frustrated sigh. "I’m sorry, it's not mother.” She said in a gentle and low voice. Maybe she thought I was going to get angry that she lied. “I just... I'm worried that you haven't called in days. I know you're busy, but…...”"I'm very sorry I didn't mean to make you worr

But seeing her happy and doing what she wanted makes me happy. From what I have found out about her so far, she’s hardworking, diligent and even made a name for herself, and she's now successful. I’m proud of her, but I won't say it.But where exactly is Justin? Why is he nowhere to be found? Did he abandon her?Then I heard her phone ring, and she picked it up."Hey babe, thank God you're calling. I'm really panicking right now.""Why? Does the man have two heads or something?"I touched my head, trying to see if I really had two heads. But I don't think I do."Maybe if he did, I wouldn't be this nervous. But I haven't even seen him yet.""Hey, you need to calm down. I'm sure he won't be that scary.”"I don't really know, but I know they're usually cold and strict. One order from them, you are dead. All my life I've known three Supreme Alphas: my mother's father, Darrell's father, and Darrell. And let me remind you that all of them are people you don't want to make mistakes in front
