All Chapters of Alpha's Picture of Regret: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Viola POVMy cell phone rings and I see it’s Trina’s mother, Marge Mayer. She is a long-time friend and partner in crime.“Marge, how are you, my dear?”“Cut the crap Vi, we had a deal. Don’t you remember? Trina and Gerard would be mated. Now his fated mate has ruined everything, and she is carrying the heir. A son! That was supposed to be my daughter!” Marge said.I sighed, “Marge, I understand. I’m still working on it. I need my grandson to be born legitimately. Then I will get rid of the photographer.”“Don’t forget, Vi. I have the evidence. Either you make this happen, or I swear, I will turn everything over to the council. I will not have my daughter be made a fool of, do you hear me?!”“Marge, don’t threaten me. Instead, work with me. There is power in numbers, and honestly, the photographer is resilient. Trina even got her blacklisted from the photography world.”“Your mate had Trina thrown out of the pack today. Did you know, or are you just willfully ignorant?”“Mind your word

Erik POVRomy is sleeping in my arms. She is constantly worried I’m going to reject her and abandon her. That asshole did a number on her. He rejected her and then used her like a toy while she was in pain.My steps are going to have to be careful. I don’t want him hurting her. Seeing him with his arm around Trina in that picture tells me he is the asshole behind Trina. But I didn’t become good at my job playing checkers. No…I play chess while everyone else plays checkers.Gerard and I already know we are coming for Trina, Larken, Viola and anyone else involved. We are getting all the pieces in place. This was a curveball, but we already talked about the counterattack. They won’t see it coming.By morning, Romy and I head over to pick up Gerard and Silja. When we get there, Silja is flipping out. Romy runs up to her and grabs her hands, “Biatch…what’s wrong?”Silja looks at Romy and points to her own stomach, which seems to have grown overnight. “Romy, what the actual hell? I look like

Silja POVI looked at the spectacle unraveling before me. Viola thought she was going to dominate the minute we pulled up. But Nolan was quick to put her in her place. I honestly didn’t expect to see his anger boil over the way it did, but I said nothing.Threatening everyone’s life over me, though, seemed a bit extreme. I chose not to react. Instead, I walked alongside Gerard and held my hand over my stomach. I’m trying to keep my nerves at bay. At the end of the day, I feel like I’m in shark-infested waters, and I was the meaty bait thrown in the deep blue waters.“I feel your nerves. Let’s go inside. I will take you to our room,” Gerard said.He wrapped his arm around me and led me away. Erik did the same with Romy. Once we were inside the pack house, memories came back to the last time I was here. I was showing the photos to Trina and Viola. They tarnished my name and had me blacklisted. They loved the photos I took, and it still makes my blood boil.“Are there security cameras in

Jaul POVI’m in my office at Sinnett Group. I’m going over the paperwork that Gerard left for me. It feels more like grunt work, but he said he didn’t want me jumping right in and getting overwhelmed.He wanted me to provide the footnotes of the contract in front of me. He said he was going to read the whole thing himself afterwards, but wanted to see if I caught all the most important parts and call-outs.I’m elbows deep in the papers when Dad walks in and smiles at me, “How’s it going?”“Honestly, my head is spinning. I’m starting to understand it, though.”“Good.”“I’m sure that isn’t what is bringing you here, though, is it?” I asked.My dad points at the chair in front of my desk, “May I?”“Sure.”He sits down and then starts explaining Viola, Trina, and Gerard’s suspicions, and then goes into talking about the new alpha of Golden Dawn, Larken Stalus. Once he finished explaining, he sat back and crossed his arms, waiting for me to respond.I sat back in my chair and rested my arms

Gerard POVIt was evening, and Silja was accompanying me to the dining hall. As soon as we walk in, the room goes quiet. I grabbed Silja gently by the waist and spoke.“Good evening, everyone. Allow me to introduce Silja Wilde. She is my fated mate, your future Luna, and as you can see, the mother of my pup. Please show her the respect fitting of a Luna, or you will answer to me.”Everyone looked at Silja, and they all clapped lightly. Not very enthusiastic, and I know it’s because my mother or Trina had something to do with the way they are looking at Silja. I will have to get to the bottom of this, too. I feel like my investigations list keeps growing and growing.Erik and Romy walk in, and then Erik announces Romy is his mate, and the pack cheers joyfully for them. I clenched my jaw at the pack’s behavior. I look over at Silja, and she is looking down, staring at her food. She’s hurt. The pack is already against her, and she didn’t even get a chance to prove herself. This is going t
