Semua Bab Alpha's Regret: My Cursed Mate : Bab 11 - Bab 20

Chapter 12: Alpha's favorite ARIEL'S POVI finally breathed out once Alpha Viktor walked past us and into the main house. The last few minutes had been a storm of emotions—confusion, fear, sharp anger, the urge to slap an alpha’s mouth shut, and so many more.Goldie this, Goldie that. Don’t breathe, don’t blink. He even forbade me from looking down when he spoke, and I didn’t understand why. It was supposed to be the opposite.Rhyder hated it when I stared straight into his eyes during a scolding. He said it was disrespectful. But here was another cold alpha demanding the exact opposite.Even though it was annoying, it made me feel strangely... important. Like I wasn’t less of a human. Like I wasn’t beneath him.Alpha Viktor was... too unpredictable. One moment cold as ice, the next strangely warm. It was hard to tell what part of him was real—or maybe it was just too soon to figure him out.Still, I was lucky. My punishment was less harsh than I’d expected, even if it was humiliati

Chapter 14: Strange feelings VIKTOR'S POVI walked to the balcony, waiting until she’d stepped into the room before I turned and made my way down the stairs.There was something strange about her—something that made Corbin’s words echo in my head again: Our mate might be close. There was no way it was her. I would know. If she was the one, I would’ve felt the bond from the very moment I set eyes on her.But why did I keep feeling this strange pull?I hadn’t even realized I was touching her lips until I did... and the soft gasp she gave? Goddess... It stirred something primal in me—something dark, something hungry. I kept thinking about how her lips might feel, might taste, against mine.I took a deep breath and shoved the crazy thoughts deep down, heading for my office. I didn’t even know who she really was yet, only that she came from Moonshade. What if she was a spy and Ravenna hadn't caught it, even though she'd never missed? What if she was connected to my brother—or someone el

Chapter 16: My nemesis ARIEL'S POVI watched Alpha Viktor walk out of my room, his face tight and unreadable, after I told him I was Rhyder's mate. My heart pounded loudly, as I quietly laid on the bed. What would he do with me now?I was his half-brother’s mate. And judging by the way Rhyder resented him—and how Viktor had reacted—I didn’t need anyone to tell me the hatred burned on both sides.Gamma Aeron must’ve told Alpha Viktor I cried on our way to the mall this morning. I didn’t know why he'd do that. Or why Viktor even cared to ask.I pressed my face into the pillow, but even the softness of the new bed couldn’t comfort me. Fresh tears soaked the fabric as the pain I had tried to bury since I arrived this new pack came crashing back. Telling Alpha Viktor had forced the wound open... every haunting image replaying in my mind like a horror movie. My chest hurt like hell.Rhyder didn’t just cheat.He ruined me.He stripped away the title I worked so hard to earn. He stole the o

Chapter 18: Old man's request I left my suite earlier than usual and headed to my office, sorting through a few documents before Maeron arrived. He was the Alpha of Silvercrust Pack. His father had stepped down, but the old man still held a seat on the council court.If I succeeded in forming this alliance, I’d stand a better chance at claiming a seat myself. And legitimizing my pack. Something I’d been denied for years because of my rogue past.They called me Alpha, sure. But to most packs and council lords, I was still a warlord. A rogue dressed up in Alpha skin. A killer with a pack of misfits too wild to tame.I didn’t care how a bunch of crusty old wolves saw me. But I cared about my people. My pack. They deserved live to freely—like every other wolves. Especially when I'm gone.I shut my laptop after replying to an email just as Drake stepped in.“Maeron’s here.”“Bring him in,” I said.He nodded and left. A minute later, Maeron walked in, wearing a dark blue suit, the jacket u

Chapter 20: His loss, our gainVIKTOR'S POV'Coward!' Corbin cursed as I stepped out of Ariel’s room.“Shut up.”'She was ready for us and instead of taking her, you handed her some stupid toy.'I shook my head and walked into my suite.“She’s my brother’s mate. She’s forbidden." Though it was mostly to convince myself.'The bastard cheated on her. His loss, our gain.'“Still not interested, pest."I slumped onto my bed and stared at the ceiling.'I have a feeling nothing will happen to her,' Corbin pressed. "She’s different, are you blind? She’s the first one who’s managed to catch our interest without even trying.'I was going to keep ignoring him. But this time, he was right.No other wolf had caught my attention like the not-so-innocent one living next door.A few years ago, when I first started building this pack, Aeron and Drake would drag me to mating parties and other packs’ balls, hoping I’d find my mate and break the curse. I had no desire for salvation, but I went because t
