บททั้งหมดของ THE ALPHA REGRETS: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 17

CHAPTER ELEVEN“Ember Valen, don’t get too pompous,” Freya, Ryker’s cousin, said coldly.Freya had always hated Ember. First, because they attended the same high school—Freya had been ignored while Ember was the school belle, the center of attention wherever she went. Second, because unlike everyone else, Ember never fawned over her just because she was the Alpha’s cousin.And worst of all, Linda was the woman Freya herself had recommended to Ryker. She wouldn’t stand here and watch Linda get bullied.Ember gave her a once-over.“Oh, I forgot,” she said lazily. “The dog trainer is here too.”“You—!” Freya’s face darkened instantly.She was furious. Never in her life had she been treated this way. How dare Ember—that waste of space, that rejected ex-Luna—insult her, the Alpha’s cousin, in front of the entire Hale family? Worse, in front of the elders?Her claws extended in a fit of rage as she lunged toward Ember.But Ember merely stood there, calm and unmoved, a mocking smile playing

CHAPTER THIRTEENAfter Ember walked out of the Hale residence with Issac, she went straight to the car.She paused for a second, looking at the woman sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror.Issac couldn’t help but smile. Right now, she looked nothing like an ordinary doctor. Instead, she looked like a woman who could move mountains with a sword in one hand and a medical needle in the other.A small smile tugged at his lips. Just looking at her made people feel strangely calm and hopeful for no reason at all.“Madam, where are we going?” Issac asked as he started the engine.“To the Valen family,” Ember replied calmly.It was time to pay her pathetic father a visit.At the Valen residence, Robin sat in the living room, holding a cup of coffee absentmindedly.As one of the four top families in the Blood Moon Pack, he had naturally heard about Ryker’s illness. Although the queen had tried desperately to hide the Alpha’s condition, the top families had known about it for a lo

Chapter FifteenWith heavy hearts, the king ordered all investments with the Robin family to be withdrawn.Not partially.Not gradually.But completely.He also issued a public announcement, declaring that from this day forward, the Hale family would no longer have any form of partnership, cooperation, or private dealings with the Robin Company.As if that were not enough, he went even further.The king personally announced that any of the four top families who dared to collaborate with the Robins would be treated as enemies of the Hale family and would face his wrath without mercy.It was not merely a warning.It was a death sentence in the business world.It took him three long days to sign and revoke every single investment, partnership, and agreement tied to the Robin family.Three days of endless meetings.Three days of legal documents stacked like mountains on his desk.Three days of relentless pressure from elders, ministers, and shareholders who begged him to reconsider.But h

CHAPTER SEVENTEENEmber stared at Ryker as he stepped inside.He looked different.Not like the man who had hugged her so sweetly just moments ago. Not like the fragile, almost innocent version of him who had clung to her as if she were his only anchor.Right now, his gaze was fixed on Linda.And it was the same look.The same soft, protective glance she had seen him give Linda at the clubhouse while holding her trembling body.Her heart dropped.Linda must have noticed the change too because she took an uncertain step toward him.“Ryker…?” she called softly.Ryker replied by giving her a gentle glance—one filled with care, warmth, and familiarity.Seeing that, Linda immediately threw herself into his arms with a cry.“I thought you left me!” she sobbed. “You wouldn’t let me come anywhere near you. I thought you abandoned me. The only person you allowed near you was that disgusting woman named Ember.”At the mention of Ember’s name, he froze.As if someone had touched a hidden switch
