All Chapters of The Alpha's Regret; Too Late To Claim Me: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Maurice’s POVI sighed as I hung up the phone and turned back to drop my jacket at the back of my chair. “You are not leaving anymore?” Fred asked from the other end of the circular table.”“She does not want to see me,” I answered, sitting back down.“As if she is in a position to make requests,” Greg muttered and Fred clapped him on the cap.“Do not be the villain in their love story bro” Fred asked and Greg shrugged him off.“I cannot believe you forgive her after everything she has done to you. That you are chasing her, even. It makes no sense. Are you sure the girl isn’t using some enchantment?” Greg asked.“There is an enchantment at play, Greg. It’s called love. You should try it sometime. Maybe it’ll melt your stone cold heart,” Fred advised“She is a fucking witch!”“Enough!” I intervened, my hand fisting on the table. “You will not say anything bad about her ever again, understand?” “But…”“Greg,” I warned. My temper was on a short leash right now and I did not want to figh

Veldana’s POVSomething was beeping and it was annoying the hell out of me. On top of that, I had a headache that was threatening to split my skull or maybe even shatter it. Suddenly, light shone in my eyes and I groaned in pain because of how sensitive my eyes were. Almost immediately, a chair scrapped and footsteps rushed to my side. The person was saying something but everything was so hazy. They were still speaking so I tried harder to concentrate. “Can you squeeze my finger if you can hear me?” I heard and I tried to do just that but my fingers only moved a flicker. “Miss Veldana,” I turned to the new voice and squinted until I could see the person. It was my doctor. My eyes roamed the room and I realized I was back at the hospital which made me feel relief and dread at the same time. As I wondered what had happened, my roaming eyes see Maurice and paused. I was forgetting something. What was it? I tried to track what I remembered. Leila getting on the bus, the driver and Maur

Maurice’s POVFred knew he fucked up when I stepped out and started advancing towards him. “Your report better be about how the world is on fire or else I will set you on fire,” I told him.“The world is on fire. Ever heard of climate change?” He asked and I growled at him causing him to actually step back. “It’s important,” he assured me and I gritted my teeth and headed back to Vel.“I need to step out for a moment but I will be back soon. Will you be fine on your own?”“I will be better if you don’t come back,” she assured me. “But we still have unfinished business. I plan to kiss you until both our lips bleed,” I winked at her and with her shocked face making me feel satisfied, I closed the door. “Let’s go.”We were in the car before Fred started talking. “Hailey’s father is missing.”“What?” Missing how?“He has been for a week. Apparently, he was not the one who led the rogue teams to come together.”“Then who is it?”“I don’t know. Nobody does. They said it was a women though.

Maurice’s POVI never enjoyed playing politics but it was even worse now when my body itched to strangle his neck. He was speaking but the only thing keeping me from snapping his neck was the thought of how I was going to conclude the kiss with Vel that Fred had ruined. I wanted to this morning but I could see how tired she was even though she did not know it.I wondered what type of life she had lived before I met her again. I know she was in a bad place but I don’t know how bad it was.“Are you listening?” The man I was meeting asked and I moved smoothly from my thoughts to the present moment.I heard the beginning of what he said and knowing the type of man he was, it was not hard to figure out the rest. “You want me to lease out half the mines lands to you,” I replied and he nodded, satisfied that I had been listening.He must think I was a fool if he thought I would let him have the mine lands. He probably thought I did not know about the rare elements that were there. There was

Veldana’s POV“What?” I asked, my suspicion growing and he stood then he was pulling me from my chair. “What are you doing?”“Do you still want this?” He asked referring to my perfectly made machiatto I snatched him from him and I nodded taking a sip as emphasis. He did not respond to my childish behavior instead taking a bill that suspiciously looked like a hundred dollars from his pockets and depositing it on the table as tip. Some waitress is going to be very happy today. “Come on,” he took my hand in his and led us out to the parking lot. I stayed quiet mostly because I was curious but also because I enjoyed how warm his hands were, how familiar.“You are taking me back to the hospital?” I asked him when he opened the door for me to get into his car. I did not want to go back there yet. Anywhere but there.“No,” he answered.I let out a sigh of relief at that but then I got curious, “Where are we going then?” I wondered.“You wouldn’t follow me if I told you so just get in, plea
