All Chapters of The Alpha's Regret: Chapter 41 - Chapter 49

Ruby's POVI stared at the bouquet over and over again. I couldn't get enough. I was just convincing myself I didn't want a man in my life again and James did this. The flowers melted my soul. Fresh white lilies, blue hydrangeas and soft pink roses. They sat beautifully on my dining table, filling the room with a sweet fragrance that somehow made my tiny home feel warmer. Right beside them was the small cream-colored envelope. And beneath the signature...was his name.I sighed, leaning back against my chair.Why?That question refused to leave my head and I refused to open the letter too. I was supposed to be the one apologizing. Not him sending me flowers. I had walked out on him yesterday after assuming the worst. I hadn't even given him a chance to explain himself before letting my emotions get the better of me.Yet instead of being upset...He sent me flowers. I looked from the bouquet to the envelope again. Then back to the flowers.Maybe I wasn't overthinking this after all. Th

Ethan's POVBy the time Marcus and I returned to the pack, the sun had already begun its slow descent beyond the trees. The gates came into view, but instead of feeling like home, they reminded me of everything I had nearly lost.I stepped out of the vehicle, expecting the evening to end quietly. Instead, I found my grandfather standing in front of the pack house.His hands were clasped behind his back, his posture as straight as ever despite his age. He looked as though he had been waiting for me.Marcus bowed his head respectfully to him. Grandfather acknowledged him with a slight nod before his sharp gaze settled on me."So," he said after a long silence, "it seems you're finally coming back to your senses."A faint smile tugged at my lips. "I suppose I am."He studied me for another moment, searching my face for any sign that I was lying. Grandfather had always been able to see through people, especially me. There had been times as a child when I thought he could read minds. Appare

Ruby's POVI stood in front of the towering entrance to the banquet hall, smoothing the wrinkles from my dress for what felt like the hundredth time.The building looked even grander than it had from the outside. Tall marble pillars framed the entrance, while crystal lights spilled a warm glow across the polished steps leading inside. Guests arrived one after another in elegant gowns and tailored suits, each of them looking like they belonged here.Emily stood beside me, adjusting the bracelet around my wrist before stepping back to inspect me."There," she said with satisfaction. "Perfect."I gave her a look. "You've said that three times already.""Because you keep touching everything."She reached toward my neck and brushed away an invisible speck before lowering her voice."And don't worry. Your scent is covered."I sighed.She had insisted on masking the scent of my pup before we left. According to her, there would be people attending tonight who possessed sharper senses than ordi

Ethan's POVThe banquet hall had somehow become even more crowded. I could sense the Alphas from different packs. They stood in small groups discussing. I could blink a thousand times and all I'd see is Ruby. I wasn't even interested in making conversations. The orchestra continued its elegant waltz, creating an atmosphere that almost made everyone forget why they were truly here.I accepted a glass from one of the servers but never took a sip. My mind wasn't on the banquet. It was on Ruby.Every woman with dark hair caught my attention for a second before I realized she wasn't the one I was looking for.I was beginning to think tonight would be another disappointment.Then…I saw her. Near the far end of the banquet room. A woman in a long purple sparkling gown. She wasn't facing me completely, but that profile...My heart skipped.Ruby?She was walking away. Without thinking, I set the untouched glass on a passing tray."Alpha?" Marcus called.I didn't answer. I was already moving th
