Her Cold-Hearted Alpha’s Regret のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

LiviaAnything would have been better than this.“Leave me alone, please,” I sniffled as the knock on my door came again. Inside this mansion, this glittering world of glitz and glamor, there was nothing but pain left for me.Over a year ago, my life, my freedom. It had all been taken from me.And now I live only to please one person…“Alpha Zach asked you to wear this,” The maid walked in, bearing a package in her arms. I looked up, my eyes swollen and my nose and cheeks red.I wanted nothing to do with him, with this.Couldn’t he see that?I didn’t respond as the maid began to speak of having to get me ready. I knew that Zach, Alpha of the Crescent Pack, was likely gallivanting around with Bella, who used to be a friend. If I had known that she would be the spy to bring my life to ruin, then I would have not gotten so close to her. Now my life had been destroyed. Now she got to enjoy the world of luxury as his lover while I stayed as his secret bed warmer and slave, barely regarded

Livia’s POVThe moment the door slammed shut, the sound echoed through the room like a final verdict as I stood frozen.My chest rose and fell unevenly as my eyes slowly scanned the room, as if expecting him to walk back in and say it was all a mistake.“Zach?” I whispered, my voice trembling as silence answered me.My fingers curled into fists. He left, not just left, but he dismissed me. He wants me to go.A shaky breath escaped my lips as disbelief flooded my veins. Is all like a dream to me as I don't ever believe a day like this will come.“Did… did he just tell me to go?” I murmured, my brows knitting together, and for a moment, I laughed.A soft, broken laugh that didn’t quite sound like my own. “This is what I wanted, isn’t it?” I said to myself, my voice growing firmer. “Freedom.” But the word felt strange on my tongue. My eyes darkened slightly as realization settled in. Not once did I beg him to stay, not once did I fall to my knees like I used to, and not even when he of

ZacharyTwo years later:“What the fuck is this?” Bella asked me in strident tones as she strolled into the dining hall that morning.I had a headache from drinking far too much on a Sunday night and i winced, letting out a growl. It took everything in me to not be violent, what with her disgusting designer perfume, the clicking of her high heels against the echoing marble tiles and the sour mood she clearly had this morning.“Be quiet Bella, it’s barely 7 in the fucking morning,” i warned her. She pursed her lips and slammed the papers she held on the dining table, folding her arms across from me.“Testing? Is this what it has come to now?” She asked in disbelief. “Are you that upset about it all?”“Testing goes both ways, Bella. And I’ve already done mine. The sooner you get yours done the sooner we can figure out why we haven’t had children yet,” I snapped at her. Her, my beloved wife of two years which I had taken as soon as the elders approved a divorce with Livia in absentia.I c

LiviaPerry’s last statement struck me. They were having issues? Bella hadn’t gotten pregnant yet? Really?“But that shouldn’t matter to you. You should live your life. And Zach will live his. Trust me. I’ll talk to him,” Perry, the Crescent Pack Beta assured me, and I felt a lot better.“Thank you, Perry. I’m glad to see you again.”“Trust me, no one is gladder than I am. Keep your head up, Liv. You’re stronger than you know.”He chuckled and waved me goodbye as I walked away with Emerald in hand.The event continued and I wandered around the halls, deep in thought and desperate to stay far away from Zach until the event ended. Time crawled and I tried to keep my cool, exploring Augusta’s home which was the venue for this event. At least, the rooms that were open to the public.One of those rooms was the chamber of relics.The room was filled with treasures for our kind from far and wide. Augusta’s family was wealthy and she kept all those relics safe, which was an important duty.I

The RevelationLivia's POV “I asked you a question, Livia,” Hayden said angrily at the top of his voice.“Hayden,” I called calmly, my voice shaking.“Don’t say my name like that,” Hayden snaps, his knuckles whitening around the steering wheel. “Answer me,” he commanded.“I already told you what happened,” I said, almost like a whisper.“No,” he growls, voice low and shaking with restrained fury. “You told me you were innocent. I know you were innocent. That’s not what I’m asking,” he said, his voice full of inquisitiveness.“Then what do you want from me?” I asked, my voice low but firm.“I want to know,” he says, each word sharp as a blade, “why Zachary claimed you were with him. He also stood to defend in the midst of everyone. Can you explain that to me?” Hayden asked even as he concentrated on the steering wheel as we drove home.The car was filled with the sound of my uneven breathing as I could see the rage in Hayden's eyes.“He cornered me.” I finally muttered reluctantly.“C
