Lahat ng Kabanata ng Alpha's Regret After His Pregnant Luna Left: Kabanata 81 - Kabanata 90

(Audrey's POV)The velvet bag felt heavier than it should have as I reluctantly took it from Arthur's outstretched hand. Our fingers brushed momentarily, and I quickly pulled back, trying to ignore the familiar electricity that still sparked between us."What is it?" I asked again, my voice softer than I intended.Arthur's jaw tightened, his dark eyes watching me intently. "Open it."I hesitated, glancing at Nathan who stood silently by the door. His presence was reassuring, but this moment felt strangely private.With careful fingers, I loosened the drawstring and tipped the contents into my palm. Two exquisite velvet boxes tumbled out, each small enough to fit in the center of my hand. The Moonstone Pack emblem was embossed in silver on their surfaces."Arthur..." I began, uncertain."Just open them," he said, his voice strained.I flipped open the first box, and my breath caught in my throat. Inside lay a delicate gold pendant with a moonstone inlay, carved into the shape of

(Audrey's POV)Time seemed to freeze as Arthur stood in the doorway, his eyes focused on the horrific tableau before him. The silver letter opener jutted from Victoria's abdomen, her hand still gripping mine around the handle. Blood bloomed across her expensive blouse like some macabre flower."Arthur," Victoria whimpered, her voice breaking. "She attacked me. Help me..."Her hand released mine, and she staggered backward, clutching the letter opener still embedded in her stomach. The theatrical way she swayed made my blood boil with renewed rage."You manipulative witch," I hissed, my wolf clawing just beneath my skin. "You pulled my hand toward you!"Arthur's expression was unreadable as his gaze moved between us. The tension in the room was suffocating."She confessed, Arthur," I said, my voice steadier than I felt. "She admitted to deliberately causing my miscarriage. She pulled me into traffic that day on purpose."Victoria's eyes widened with practiced innocence. "That's a

(Audrey's POV)"The results are conclusive, Audrey," George Thompson's voice crackled through my phone. "The scent markers on Elder William's medicine definitely belong to Victoria."I gripped the phone tighter, sinking onto my couch as the confirmation hit me. Even though I'd suspected it, hearing it confirmed made my stomach twist painfully."You're absolutely certain?" I asked, needing to be sure before proceeding."The odor is faint now," George explained, his voice carrying the weight of the discovery. "But our specialist confirmed it without doubt. Victoria's scent markers are on the medicine."I closed my eyes, feeling an unexpected wave of sadness wash over me. This wasn't the vindication I had imagined. Instead, grief for Elder William's unnecessary death overwhelmed me."I don't understand," I whispered, more to myself than to George. "Why would she do this to him? Elder William might not have fully accepted Victoria, but he never actively worked against her until..."

(Audrey's POV)The sharp pain of Alpha Grey's boot pressing against my throat was nothing compared to the humiliation burning through me. His steel-gray eyes gleamed with satisfaction as he loomed over me, treating me like something less than dirt."You think you're so special?" Grey spat, increasing the pressure. "Acting like a pack elder when you're nothing but a soon-to-be discarded mate."Blake—the wolf with the raspy voice—cleared his throat nervously. "Uh, Alpha... your foot is still on her face."Grey's eyes widened with realization. He quickly withdrew his foot, looking almost embarrassed by his lapse in composure. Before he could say anything else, the abandoned den's door was violently wrenched open with such force that it nearly tore from its hinges.There, silhouetted against the daylight, stood Arthur Moonstone. His face was contorted with cold fury, his eyes glowing with his wolf's amber light. His Alpha presence filled the room like a physical force, making it diffi

(Audrey's POV)Victoria stood at Arthur's bedside, her hand possessively clutching his while her eyes flashed with triumph as she looked at me. I fought back a smile at how predictable this entire scene was."I can handle this now," Victoria repeated, her voice dripping with false sweetness. "You must be tired after your... ordeal."I merely raised an eyebrow, still holding the water cup I'd been giving Arthur. His silver wound was serious, but not serious enough for me to endure Victoria's theatrics."Arthur, I brought your favorite healing tea," Victoria cooed, pulling a thermos from her designer handbag.Arthur's face remained impassive. "I don't want tea."Victoria blinked, momentarily thrown off by his flat refusal. "But... it will help with the silver poisoning. I had it specially prepared.""The medical center has provided adequate treatment," Arthur replied, his voice cool and detached.Victoria seemed oblivious to his tone, launching into an enthusiastic monologue abou
