Alpha's Regret After She Kneels Novels & Stories

I let out a muffled sob, my legs trembling beneath me. I slumped to the ground, heavy tears leaving my eyes as pain and disgust wracked through my entire body. Alpha keiran just stood there, an impassive look on his face. Without sparing me a glance, he turned and started to leave the place. "I must not see you here when I return." He ordered me, his voice cold and biting. I don't reply, still crying my eyes out. He leaves me alone and try to stand up to my feet but it doesn't work out because I'm still hurting down there. I make to look and see blood and his release tricking down my thighs. The sight just feels me disgust and I want to kill myself.

I look at them, up, down, in a winking style. “It's fine, I'll act professional always. I'll not mingle in any family drama, hope that will be okay?” I ask, putting up with a straight face. For a while, I encounter a silence from the Alphas who stare at me without saying anything. Aaron makes a gesture and they walk towards Dustin on the floor. I watch what they are up to. They kneel, all the six. I shudder, rubbing my eyes with my fingers to confirm if this is true. Can these arrogant Alphas kneel? Can they ever apologize?

I quickly crawled on my knees and held the legs of Alpha Jax to beg for his mercy. “Please, Alpha Jax, have mercy on Abigail. Is there any way she has offended you? Please, for my sake, kindly forgive her.” - With tears in my eyes and the trickling of my running nose, which I didn’t pay more attention to, I pleaded for him to spare her. “Little girl, listen carefully to your friend or whatever you know about her, as she didn’t offend me at all. I just have to do this for the culture.” He responded without feeling remorseful.

I ordered with my Alpha tone and he immediately bowed his head in submission but I could still hear the rebellion in his voice when he answered. “Yes, Alpha,” Greg sighed. “The day I become an alpha who needs to resort to such lowly measures to keep my seat is the day I abdicate.” I meant it. I had fought hard for this seat and I had no intention of letting it control me. I was the Alpha; I controlled the seat and not the other way around. “What is our next move?” Fred asked since Greg was still too contrite. “Fred, how mobile can you be? I know you are taking care of Freya.”

Despite everything, some part of our bond remained intact. He turned back to Victoria, decision made. His path was clear now. "Tell the Elders whatever you want. Tell them I abandoned the pack. Tell them I went insane. I don't care." He tossed her the Alpha medallion he wore around his neck. It landed at her feet with a dull thud. "You wanted Shadow Moon's Alpha position? It's yours. I release all claim to it." Victoria's mouth fell open in shock. "You can't just—"

For the first time that I’m aware of, it looks like the infuriatingly entitled Alpha isn’t getting his way. Aaron’s eyes glass with tears that I know will never fall as he speaks through clenched teeth. “I, Aaron Kensington, as an Alpha, accept your rejection. I respect your choice and will not go against your will. I am no longer your mate, and I wish you peace.” My heart skips, stuttering as he grinds out his final promise. “Your heart, your soul, and your body are now eternally free.” With a snap, the bond between us shatters.

The moment he saw the lifeless body of the Alpha, drenched in blood, his expression shifted to one of sheer horror. The tray slipped from his hands, crashing to the floor as he stared at me, his eyes wide with disbelief. I shook my head frantically, tears streaming down my face as I looked from the Alpha’s body to the butler. My entire body trembled as I tried to speak, but the words came out in broken stammers, “I didn’t do it... I... I don’t know how I got here.”

The four Alphas exchanged glances. "That is a lie," she sobbed, clutching Sebastian's arm. Her tears fell fast and perfect. "You know how much that night destroyed me, Freya. You know the pain I have carried. The nightmares. The fear every time the moon goes dark. How can you stand there and lie like this? How can you be so cruel?" "Enough," Kael roared. His claws extended at his sides. "Apologize to her. Now." Marcus stepped closer, his voice cold and sharp as frozen earth. "Apologize. Now. You have caused enough suffering."

"So this is the Luna the Alpha wants to abandon?" "What's the point of being Luna? Look at her now. She can't even stand properly, and she's fleeing like a pathetic mess." Someone in the crowd shoved me. My body, which was already weakened by the backlash from the mate-bond severance, finally gave out. I slipped, and I fell on all fours. I collapsed into the puddle of mud in front of all the scribes. In that instant, humiliation, resentment, and fury all surged forth together. One scalding tear slipped free at last and dripped onto the icy ground.

“Just like the pretty lady said.” Anyone witnessing the scene felt an inexplicable ache in their chest. The sight of the once-cold, untouchable Alpha clinging affectionately to the wife he had rejected was a shocking contrast—one that shattered everything they remembered.
