All Chapters of Alpha Leon's Regret : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

_Anya’s POV_I do not remember my parents. I do not remember where I was born or who carried me in her arms when I was a baby. The only story I know about myself is the story the Alpha told many years ago. He said that some guards on patrol had found me near the southern border of the Silvercrest pack. I was wrapped in a thin blanket and left near the trees. I was crying, cold and hungry.No one in the pack had claimed me. No one had come forward saying they had lost a child. The elders had guessed that I was the daughter of rogues. That word had followed me since I was a baby; rogue, stray and unwanted.The Alpha had looked at me and said that I was only an innocent child. I had done nothing wrong. Then he had asked if any family would take me in.The Beta had stepped forward. Everyone had praised him for it. Everyone said that he had a good heart. Maybe he did. Or maybe he only liked looking noble in front of the whole pack because after he brought me home, the kindness ended.His w

_Anya’s POV_For a few seconds, no one spoke. The night was quiet except for the sound of everyone breathing. I could see the shock on their faces. The Alpha, the Luna, Talia and my parents were all staring at me as if they were seeing me for the first time.I wished the ground would open and swallow me.The Alpha was the first to speak. His voice was cold and firm. “Leon, tell me what is going on.”Leon did not look away from me. His face was pale but his eyes were hard as if he was forcing himself to feel nothing.“She is my mate,” he said finally.Talia gasped loudly. “No. That is not possible. That cannot be true.”My father looked at me with disbelief. “This must be some kind of trick,” he said. “There is no way she can be the future Luna.”The Luna looked at me from head to toe, her eyes full of judgment. “She is weak. She was raised as a servant. She has no manners, no education and no status. How can she stand beside the future Alpha?”Each word felt like a knife.The Alpha lo

_Anya’s POV_The three days before the execution felt longer than all the years I had lived in that pack.After the trial, the guards dragged me back to the cellar and threw me inside. This time they did not even look at me. The door slammed shut and the sound echoed in the darkness like a final sentence.Three days.Only three days until dawn came for me.No one brought me food and water. My throat burned with thirst and my stomach hurt until the pain became dull and heavy. My body felt weaker with each hour that passed. On the third day, the weakness became so bad that even breathing felt like work.I did not know if it was still night or already close to dawn. No light reached the deep part of the cellar. Time had no shape there. I had prayed so many times during those three days that I no longer knew whether I was praying aloud or only in my heart.“Moon Goddess,” I whispered with cracked lips, “if this is truly my end, please do not let it hurt for long. And if I am innocent, t

_Anya’s POV_The moment I stepped inside the mansion, I felt smaller than I ever had before.The entrance hall was enormous. The floor beneath my feet was polished stone so smooth that it caught the light from the high chandeliers above and threw it back in pale gold. The ceiling was so high that I had to tilt my head to see it properly. Long dark curtains hung beside tall windows and portraits of stern-looking men and women covered the walls. They all looked powerful and important. Everything around me felt rich and heavy. It did not look anything like the Beta house where I had grown up. That house had been large too but it had never felt like this. This place felt like power had been built into every wall and every stone. I pulled Alpha Jacob’s coat tighter around myself.He noticed.“You are cold?” he asked.“A little,” I admitted.His eyes lingered on my face for a second. “That will not be a problem for long.”I did not ask what he meant. He began to walk again and I followed

_Anya’s POV_I walked slowly to the door. My heart was beating faster for no reason that I could explain. Maybe it was because I was still shaken by the dream. Maybe it was because I knew he was standing on the other side of the door.I placed my hand on the handle and opened it.The moment the door opened, I found myself standing face to face with Alpha Jacob.For one second, neither of us spoke.Then suddenly, I felt it.A sharp pull inside my chest. It was not pain. It was something else. Something warm and strong that seemed to wrap around my heart and pull me toward him.My breath caught.Inside my head, Maya suddenly shouted, Mate. Mate. Mate.The word echoed loudly in my mind and made my whole body go still.I stared at him.He was already looking at me and he was smiling slightly, but when he saw the strange expression on my face, his smile faded and his brows pulled together in concern.“Are you alright?” he asked gently. “You look a little pale.”“I… I am fine,” I said quick
