All Chapters of Their Regret: I'm Not Your Luna Anymore : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

11"Let go! Let go, monster! Let go of me. Mommy Tory! Mommy Tory, help me." Alex kept screaming all the way until Vera brought him into her and Fred's bedroom. She was putting him down on the bed when he kicked her in the stomach. Her hold on his body loosened and she dropped him on the floor inches away from the bed."Alex, baby, are you okay?" Despite being in pain herself, Vera bent down to check on her son.To her surprise and agony, he caught her loose hair in his fists and pulled on them."Mommy Tory was right about you. She had told me you will come and cause a mess in our lives. You're a monster. I hate you. I hate you." He screamed.Vera was in tears. The pain from her hair being yanked weakened her. One could also say that her motherly love got the better of her, thus weakening her in front of her son, who was behaving like a brat.But the biggest concern was that Alex wasn't like this. This is not how Vera raised him. He was a good boy. He loved his Mommy and cherished spe

13Vera gasped for breath. Dorn went on, “Alpha met her at a club. Tory was running away from some molester. She ran into us and then Alpha took her to his car. In the car she… She shared her story about having a 5 year old daughter and for her sake she's to work in this club.“Well, I didn't believe her. Girls like her are found all around the world. They run into rich and powerful men all the time. I thought she's lying and demanded to know why she works in such a place if she's not safe. So she said no one keeps her for work because of her past.” Dorn heaved a sigh. “I was going to shoo her away but Alpha was smitten by her innocent looks already. He ordered me to take them both home. You were out for a meeting in the neighboring pack back then. I don't know what happened that night, but the next morning Alpha came to the office and ordered me to find a good flat. When I asked why, he told me he was going to keep Tory safe. That she was his responsibility from then on.”Dorn glanc

15"It's not the time to talk about that, Alpha. You need to talk to Luna and stop her from calling the council." Dorn tried to bring him on the same page as him."Talk to her? What do you take me for, Beta Dorn? Vera attacked me in front of my girlfriend and son. I'm the alpha. She disrespected me. I was humilated by her and you want me to talk to her!" Fred yelled. "Let her call the council. I'm ready. It's not like I want her in my life. Who is she after all... A weak filthy human. She should be glad that I married her even after knowing she was weak and wolfless."Dorn clenched his mouth tighter as he cast a hateful look at Fred. 'Our pack would have still been in a weak state if it wasn't for Luna Vera. I can't believe he's so dumb. Instead of worrying about how to keep Luna in his life, he's thinking about how he was humilated. Someone needs to remind me when was he ever respected?! He was always stupid and got mocked for that reason. Whatever respect he gets today, it's all bec

17Fred climbed the stairs back up and came inside the room. Seeing him return, Vera's fury sky-rocketed. "Why did you come back? Do you have a death wish? Get out. Get out now!" She thrusted her hands against his chest and Fred slammed into the frame of the door. A current of sizzling pain went up his spine. He hung there to bear the pain before moving away. "Get out, Fred. Get out if you don't want me to kill you." Her eyes were moist with hot tears. Fred saw them and let out a breath. He had never seen Vera so broken. In their seven years of marriage, he never saw a single tear in her eyes. And today she was crying like never before. 'Hold her, Fred. Hold her and kiss her. Our mate has done so much for us. Don't leave her for a girl who is cunning.' Fred's wolf said. He was baffled because this was the first time in so many years that his wolf had said something to him. And it was about their mate. But as expected, Fred ignored it. He was blinded by Tory's love. He acted lik

19"But it's finally happening, isn't it? So what is scaring you, Vera?" Patrick said, concentrating on the traffic ahead. "I don't know exactly." Vera whispered, lines of worry finally crawling into her forehead. "When I met Beta Dorn three days ago and how he spoke to me threateningly, it sounded like he already had everything taken care of."Patrick opened his mouth to soothe her concerns but, "He doesn't want me to leave the pack, Patrick. I have a feeling he will try to interrupt this meeting too. I can feel it." Vera added in a shaky voice. "You're just overthinking, Vera. It won't happen. And don't forget in the council meetings, only those who are concerned are allowed to stay. Since Beta Dorn's got nothing to do with your case, he will not be in the room."Vera didn't reply. She already had tears in her eyes by then. They trickled down and fell on her blazer. "I just want my son, Patrick. I miss him. You know, the last few nights have been very difficult for me. I couldn't
