All Chapters of Sisters’ Regret After I Left: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The hospital room soon returned to their happy atmosphere without me.Wesley turned the dagger over in his lap — carefully now, blade still sheathed — admiring the carved bone handle. His voice was excited as he spoke."Last week, everyone in my class was talking about how beautiful the Caribbean seas are. When I grow up, I want to see them too. I'll definitely take this dagger with me."Riley patted his shoulder affectionately. "Why wait until you're grown? It's no big deal — we can go see it this year."Alexa chuckled softly. "Perfect timing. Both of us have time off at the end of the year. We'll take you."Their conversation flowed easily as they discussed travel plans. Within half an hour, they'd even booked the flights.Wesley grinned and bowed his head modestly. "I don't deserve all this. You two are so kind to me."That was the line he always used. Modest, gracious, perfect.I remembered the first time he'd used it on me — three years ago, when I'd come home to find him standing

Ever since I could remember, my parents were rarely home.They dedicated almost their entire lives to herbal research.They would often leave for a year or more at a time.Besides the hired Omega servants, the only ones who took care of me were my twin sisters, eight years older than me.When I was six and just starting elementary school, I was bullied by classmates because I was smaller and weaker than them.My parents were thousands of miles away, so I came home and cried under my blankets.Fourteen-year-old Riley came into my bedroom late at night to check if I had kicked off my covers.When she pulled back the blanket, she saw my tear-stained face.She held me and wiped away my tears just like Mom used to do.While patting my back, she comforted me."It's okay. Your sister will protect Caleb."The next day, she went to my school and beat up all the bullies. The teachers caught her and punished her by making her serve as a combat training partner for the elite Alpha wolves.When I c

The day I officially prepared to enter the classified research institute was my third day after arriving at the neighboring pack.The institute's Director Brown took us all out for lunch.After several rounds of drinks, everyone was a bit emotional.By the end, many sitting around the table had reddened eyes.Director Brown told us to make one last call to family or friends, then added seriously:"If you're afraid or reluctant, it's not too late to back out now."People around me began taking out their phones to dial, with occasional muffled sobs breaking the silence.I sat quietly for a long while before finally taking out my phone and opening Facebook.I checked and saw that Riley had updated her status.They had taken Wesley to the Caribbean.In the photos, the ocean was stunningly beautiful, like an enormous spilled palette of colors.Wesley wore the hand-forged hunting dagger at his belt.He looked back at the camera from the endless beach, his eyes crinkling with practiced happin

Riley's phone slipped from her hand, clattering to the floor.On the screen, the call duration continued to tick upward.The bedroom fell into a silence so complete you could hear a pin drop.She felt like she had misheard something.What did the professor mean — how could Caleb possibly come back?Her breathing quickened, her heartbeat thunderous in her ears.It was as if a string in her mind had suddenly been stretched to its limit, about to snap at any moment.Riley's mind went blank. After a long moment, she picked up the phone."I don't think I understood you. What did you just... say?"The voice on the other end grew increasingly distant in her ears.That mental string finally snapped."Others might not understand, but you, Riley? How could you not understand? If you hadn't withdrawn at the last minute, Caleb wouldn't have gotten that position. Caleb told me you withdrew for that boy. Wesley, right?"Riley's face drained of all color.Despite the winter chill, cold sweat beaded o

Riley opened her mouth, but it took her a moment to produce any sound.As if trying to comfort herself, she repeated Wesley's words."He'll... he'll come back eventually. He's a grown man. He's not going to get lost."Alexa's eyes burned red, misting with unshed tears.Her hand trembling uncontrollably, she violently grabbed Riley by the collar."He left with Nora. I checked the school security cameras. He was dragging his suitcase, leaving with Nora."Alexa's voice shook more severely as she tightened her grip on Riley's collar."Do you understand what I'm saying? He went with Nora. Nora — do you not know what she's doing now? Don't you know?"Breathing became difficult, but Riley forgot to move.After the enormous fear and despair, all that remained was a bottomless, yawning confusion.How could she not know what Nora was doing?As the pack's senior Beta, Riley herself, along with senior colleagues, had personally reviewed and approved the list of participants for the fifteen-year cl
