Semua Bab The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back: Bab 151 - Bab 160

(Sarah's POV)I forced myself to focus, picking up one of the fresh wolfsbane-infused healing fruits from the bowl. My hands worked automatically, peeling it, my blunt nails sliding through the soft rind. Each slice came apart cleanly."Here." I held out the neatly sectioned piece toward Aria, trying to keep my tone light. "They’re straight from the pack gardens. Restocked this morning."She hesitated, her violet eyes briefly flicking over the fruit. Her hand reached out and took it with a gentle thank you, but the way her fingers trembled didn’t escape me.She held the small piece for a moment longer, her grip loose. She stared at it like she wasn’t sure whether to taste it. Then, slowly, she brought it to her lips. She winced before she bit down, chewing softly, her expression tight.Was she in pain?“I know you too well,” Aria said suddenly, her soft voice cutting through my swirling thoughts. She swallowed the fruit before setting the rest of it down on my desk. "What’s wrong

(Sarah's POV)"Tell me about her and Derek." Alexander's voice was low, quieter than I’d heard it in years. His sharp, golden eyes locked on me.I hesitated, unsure of how much to say. The tension in the car felt like a physical weight pressing down on me. He looked fragile in a way I’d never thought possible—not in his body, but in whatever was left of his spirit. The proud, powerful Alpha heir I once knew was breaking apart, little by little.He waited silently, and I could feel his wolf stirring within him. It wasn’t raging—it was waiting, just like he was. Waiting for me to shred what little hope he might have left."It’s not what you think," I said finally, keeping my voice steady. The truth, however harsh, had to come out now. "Their relationship... started in a way you won’t like."His eyebrows twitched, nerves already fraying. "What do you mean?"I exhaled, the words bitter on my tongue. "It wasn’t love."He flinched slightly, his lips parting as though he wanted to resp

(Aria's POV)The message came softly through the remnants of our old pack bond as I laced up my shoes, my movements slow and deliberate. "I'm returning to my territory. I won't trouble you again. Take care.” Those words—simple, direct—hit me like a heavy stone, sinking directly into the depths of my heart.Alex's voice, the warmth of his presence in those few words, was both comforting and heart-wrenching.He was leaving. Truly.I stared at the message, my chest tightening as I read it again and again, as though trying to memorize every syllable. He was honoring the finality of my decision, as he always did. My gentle Alex, who never wanted to burden me, was stepping aside once more.Tears pricked at the corners of my violet eyes, blurring the screen.I rapidly blinked them away.Crying now wouldn’t change anything.I thought about responding. Maybe a thank you. Maybe a wish for his happiness in return.But none of it felt right. None of it felt true. After causing him pain

(Aria's POV)Jason’s reaction was almost instant. He turned sharply toward me, his heavy footsteps halting mid-step as if he’d been caught unprepared. The expression that immediately crossed his face was a mix of surprise and mild panic.“Aria?” he called out, trying to sound casual, but his voice wavered slightly. His brown eyes blinked rapidly as if confirming it was really me standing there.I tilted my head slightly, keeping my posture neutral but letting my eyes focus intently on his face. "Jason," I replied calmly. "What are you doing here?" I didn’t betray the suspicion building in my chest. Not yet.“What brings you here?” he stammered, ignoring my question entirely. He tried to recover quickly, forcing a grin that didn’t quite meet his eyes. “You’re not usually around this part of the medical center.”I crossed my arms, raising an eyebrow as if to challenge his attempt to deflect. “Funny. I was just about to ask you the same thing. I thought you were supposed to be in Bro

(Sarah's POV)The private healing chamber was too quiet. The hum of the medical equipment was low, but it made everything feel more unnatural. This chamber was reserved for high-ranking wolves or those willing to spend more silver coins than most could imagine. My chest tightened as I took everything in—the plush furniture, the faint scent of rare wolfsbane-infused treatments in the air, and the comfortable lighting designed to soothe the patients.I couldn’t stop staring at Jason’s face. His usually warm and friendly expression was strained. He fidgeted with the cuff of his shirt and avoided my eyes. My beta wolf growled softly in the back of my mind, restless and uneasy.“Jason,” I began, keeping my voice calm, though I could feel my hands starting to tremble. “This healing chamber… it’s not cheap. Not even remotely. In fact, it’s probably one of the most expensive in the entire medical center. How exactly did you manage this?"Jason’s head jerked up slightly, and I saw a flicker
