บททั้งหมดของ Her Cold-Hearted Alpha’s Regret: บทที่ 81 - บทที่ 90

Chapter 80Bella’s POVSomething shifted immediately, and I saw it the moment Zach’s eyes hardened just for a second. It was subtle, almost invisible, but I knew him too well. That focus, that clarity… it didn’t belong to my control, but it belonged to Livia.A sharp wave of irritation curled inside my chest as my nails dug into my palm, and I forced a soft smile onto my face.Even now? I thought bitterly. Even like this… You still look for her?I tilted my head, studying him carefully. “Zach…” I called gently, stepping closer. “Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked calmly, but he didn’t answer immediately. His gaze lingered on me, searching, like he was trying to peel something away… something I had carefully wrapped around his mind and that made my stomach tighten.I wasn’t going to lose control now, not after everything, and not after everything I had done.My lips curved into a faint, almost mocking smile. “You’re thinking about her again, aren’t you?” I said softly, loo

Zachary’s POVI looked around to see a glass of water on the table beside me, and after some seconds I sensed that the glass moved.I didn’t touch it, I didn’t even blink as I thought maybe I was just hallucinating.Another moment, it sat quietly on the bedside table, the next, it was hovering just slightly and then sliding toward me like it had a will of its own.I was just calm as I looked at it critically, my fingers twitched as I watched.It was like someone was stretching the glass of water to me directly, but I did not panic as I stretched my hand and took it.The rim of the glass stopped just inches from my lips. A normal man would’ve flinched. A weak man would’ve panicked, but I did neither.Instead, I leaned forward slowly, deliberately letting my lips barely brush the water as though I was about to drink.I was thinking, watching and breathing as I looked around. The scent hit me again, faint, sweet, and unfamiliar.It was not a maid, not Perry, and not Bella, but it seems s

Chapter 85Bella’s POVI didn’t even panic when I started noticing steps behind me. Yes, I never panicked because I thought I might not be the one being followed, but the moment I noticed the pattern. I knew something was wrong.I noted the same face twice in different places, the same footsteps echoing a second too late and my lips curled into something dangerous.“Zach…” I murmured under my breath, my voice soft but laced with cold amusement. “You really think you’re clever,” I muttered to myself with a faint smile as I leaned back in my seat, my eyes scanning the reflection in the tinted glass. I saw the man trailing me trying to look casual, but he wasn’t nearly as subtle as he thought. A shadow pretending to be invisible.“Sending someone after me?” I scoffed quietly. “That’s not just stupid, that’s insulting,” I said calmly.My fingers moved swiftly as I pulled out my phone and dialed a secure line. The call connected almost instantly.“Ma’am,” a deep voice answered.“I want e

Chapter 87Bella’s POVA lot of thoughts were running through my mind as I paced in my room. I was restless, waiting for the call to come in.I have checked my phone minutes of times but no messages or calls have come in.“Why is she taking so long to call?” I muttered staring at the phone in my hand. ***The call finally came in just as I stood before the mirror, my fingers lingering over the slight swell of my stomach.“He’s in the car, ma’am.” the voice echoed from the other end.My lips curved, slow, deliberate, and dangerous.“Good,” I said quietly, my voice laced with satisfaction. “Keep your distance. I will handle the rest.” I ordered and the line went dead. I stood there for a moment, I didn’t move as I simply stared at my reflection, my eyes dark, calculating and alive with something almost unhinged. This was it as everything was finally aligning the way it should have from the beginning.“All I need…” I muttered, reaching for the small vial on the table, “ is control.”

Bella’s POVI sat in my room thinking about everything that has been going on and the success so far.I smiled to myself, slow and dangerous, the kind of smile that never reached my eyes as I knew everything was falling into place.I thought about every move, every whisper, and every calculated step taken so far.“All that’s left…” I murmured under my breath, my fingers trailing over the armrest of my chair, “It's you, Livia.” I said as my eyes darkened.The name alone irritated me, as I have nothing good to do with her. At first, I had dismissed her, just like another fragile wolf thrown into a game I didn't understand, but now I knew better.There was something wrong about Livia, something unnatural. I leaned forward, elbows on my knees, my gaze sharp as memories replayed in my mind.I could remember the way Livia would look at me. The way she would respond before I even finished speaking. It surprises me that she would know and this always made my jaw tighten.“Mind reading…” I whis
