Semua Bab Alpha's Regret After His Pregnant Luna Left: Bab 231 - Bab 240

(Arthur's POV)It was a scene I never expected to witness – Audrey Winter, still under the influence of silver poisoning, standing between two males who clearly wanted to claim her. The tension in the air was palpable, thick enough to cut with a territory marking claw.Audrey glanced at me, her dilated pupils struggling to focus. Despite her compromised state, I could see determination flashing across her features."Alpha Moonstone, Florian Stormhowl is here to pick me up, so... I won't trouble you further. Thank you!" Her voice wavered slightly as she pushed herself away from my territory vehicle.I watched her carefully, my body tensed to catch her should she stumble. Each unsteady step she took toward Florian's transport sent a spike of anxiety through me. The silver poisoning was clearly affecting her balance. Pride be damned – I kept pace just behind her, ready to intervene if needed.When she finally reached Florian's vehicle, I approached the driver's window. My voice came

(Third Person's POV)Lyra Riverwind stood in front of the territory window for a while, her silhouette outlined against the glittering city lights of Central Territory. The moonlight cast a silvery glow across her features, highlighting the calculating gleam in her eyes. She was lost in thoughts of power and manipulation until a subtle movement from outside her room caught her attention.With practiced grace, she turned and walked to the bedside table. The moonlight nectar that Beta Thornwood had left earlier still sat there, untouched. In one swift motion, Lyra grabbed the glass and drained it in a single gulp, letting the sweet liquid slide down her throat.She placed the empty glass back on the table with a soft clink and moved toward the door. Her hand hesitated on the handle for just a moment before she pushed it open and stepped outside.In the spacious living area of the luxury territory suite, Yvette Riverwind sat on an elegant sofa, her shoulders slightly slumped as she ga

(Florian's POV)I was still on the pack comm-link with Melody, discussing who might have had access to the refreshments at last night's territory gathering, when another call came through. Cassandra."I'll call you back with that information," Melody said professionally."Good." I ended the call and immediately switched to Cassandra's."Cousin dear," Cassandra's voice held that familiar teasing lilt, "care to explain why you instructed the pack cleaning Beta to leave a certain grey territory robe untouched in your den? That's not like you at all."I pinched the bridge of my nose, already regretting picking up her call. "Is that why you called? To pry into my personal affairs?""Of course," she replied without hesitation. "That's what family is for, isn't it? Besides, it's not like you to get sentimental about clothing items."I growled softly. Cassandra always knew how to push my buttons."If you must know," I said, leaning back in my chair and wincing slightly as my leg throbb

(Audrey's POV)"Okay, thank you, Cassandra," I replied, tapping the send button on my pack comm-link.Sarah leaned over my shoulder, her curiosity piqued. "Florian Stormhowl's message?""No, his cousin Cassandra's," I explained, showing Sarah my pack device. "She's inviting us to Florian's birthday celebration tomorrow. Want to go have some fun together?"Sarah's expression darkened instantly. The afternoon's confrontation with Kevin was clearly still raw in her mind. She crossed her arms, her lips forming a tight line."After what his friend did to our business application? You can't be serious.""It must be a misunderstanding," I insisted, touching her arm gently. "Kevin will probably be there too. Why not see them tomorrow and ask him in person? If it's truly a misunderstanding, it's a good opportunity to clear things up."Sarah gave me a look of mock disappointment, shaking her head at my optimism. "For your sake, fine!" she conceded with an exaggerated sigh. "But don't expe

(Audrey's POV)"Cassandra Stormhowl asked me to buy them."Florian's golden eyes narrowed at me with a meaningful glance. His lips curved into a slight smirk as he continued, "She said that if you want to pursue me, you must be ready to live together at any time and prepare these she-wolf necessities."My ears burned with embarrassment. "There's nothing like that between me and your cousin. I'm not pursuing her.""I was referring to you pursuing me," he clarified with a chuckle.Oh Moon Goddess, the embarrassment was overwhelming. I tried to step back, but Florian swiftly wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close against his chest."I missed you, Audrey," he whispered, his voice suddenly serious.Before I could respond, he bent down and pressed his lips against mine. The kiss was brief but filled with emotion. When he pulled away, his golden eyes held mine intently."Are you satisfied with our current status?" he asked. "Friends who can kiss and hug?"I couldn't help but
