Semua Bab Alpha's Regret After I Mated to His Brother: Bab 161 - Bab 170

(Elara's POV)"Lucian... your wolf... you're running a fever," I whispered, alarmed by the heat radiating from his skin.Lucian tightened his arms around me, his usually cold demeanor replaced by vulnerability. His blue eyes were glazed with fever."I'm fine," he muttered, though his burning forehead told a different story."Lucian... does your wolf feel unwell?" I asked softly. "Let me get a digital thermometer."I tried to move, but his grip tightened. "No..." he murmured, nuzzling against my neck. "Stay."The mighty Alpha King, reduced to childlike neediness by silver exposure. It would be almost funny if it weren't so worrying."I'll just be a moment," I promised, trying to slip away. "You need medicine."His hand shot out, grabbing my robe. "Don't leave my wolf..." he whispered, his eyes already closing, exhaustion claiming him.I couldn't help but smile. This was a side of Lucian Thorne no one would believe existed.(Elara's POV)Looking at him now, feverish and vulner

(Madeline's POV)The pack communication device trembled in my hand, mirroring the shock running through my body. Everywhere I looked in the Hayes Pack territory, wolves were huddled around their devices, murmuring in horror as victim after victim told their stories about Veronica.My normally composed wolf felt like it was drowning inside me. What Lucian Thorne had done was methodical destruction—not just punishment, but annihilation of everything we'd built.With shaking fingers, I called him. My last resort."Lucian…why are you doing this to my wolf?" I couldn't stop the tears from flowing. "You promised! You said as long as we admitted Veronica's faults about the silver incident publicly, you'd let us go!"The silence stretched painfully before Lucian's cold voice finally came through."Are you finished?" he asked, as if my distress was merely a performance to be endured.I swallowed hard, gripping the device tighter. "The Hayes Pack followed your terms. We admitted everythin

(Lucian's POV)My pack communication device buzzed as we drove toward White Moon Pack School."Alpha Thorne," the school administrator's voice trembled, "there's a male wolf at the entrance claiming to be Ethan Rivers' biological father and your pack coordinator's former mate."Cold fury filled me. Luke snarled inside, ready for blood."How long?" I asked quietly."Fifteen minutes. There's a crowd gathering. Many are recording with their devices."I ended the call, jaw tight. Elara noticed immediately."Is something wrong, Alpha Thorne?" she asked."Nothing to concern yourself with," I replied.As we neared the school, we saw dozens of pack members clustered around the gates, devices raised high.Elara gasped. "What is happening today?""Someone picked the wrong day to challenge my pack," I said coldly, removing my jacket and watch.Elara's eyes widened. "Alpha Thorne, you can't—"A male voice bellowed: "ELARA RIVERS! FACE ME, YOU SILVER-CONTAMINATED COWARD!"(Elara's POV

(James's POV)I glared across the table at Lucian Thorne, my wolf snarling inside me."Lucian Thorne, are you crazy? Would your wolf really go this far for a silver-contaminated omega?" I demanded, my voice low but sharp. "Finding a woman just to play stepfather to her pup of unknown lineage?"Lucian's eyes flashed dangerously. Beside me, Selena clutched my arm anxiously."Brother... don't say any more, please?" she pleaded softly.I ignored her, too focused on the wolf who'd been my rival since our earliest pack training days. My wolf bristled with resentment that had been building for years."Is this some twisted game to you?" I pressed. "Taking in a silver-contaminated female and her pup just to spite everyone around you?"Elara Rivers sat silent, her green eyes downcast. Her pup, however, was staring intently at Selena."Mama, that famous she-wolf looks a lot like Uncle Caleb," the boy whispered, tugging at his mother's sleeve.I watched as Elara's eyes widened slightly, d

(Lucian's POV) I reclined in my Alpha chair, watching the shock register on Victor's face as I signed Alexander Morgan's resignation acceptance."My wolf has indeed been too tired lately," I remarked casually. "It's rare for my father to be so considerate, giving me some time off pack duties. Truly...it's hard on Damon."I handed the signed document to Edward, satisfaction coursing through me. Alexander's dismissal was now official—he couldn't return to pack administration without my explicit consent. Seraphina stood silently in the corner, her ambitious plans temporarily derailed by my calm acceptance.Damon strode in minutes later, barely containing his excitement. "Lucian, you should go back to your private territory and rest. My wolf can manage things just as well without yours."Luke snarled inside me at his presumption, but I kept my expression neutral. "An excellent idea," I agreed, gathering my personal items. I turned to Elara, who stood anxiously by the door. "Cancel all
