Alpha's Regret Jessica Hall Novels & Stories

“I don’t think any of us expected good to come from the Alpha being here.” “Glad to know that we helped open your mind a little,” Rafael said. Jessica hummed. “I need to go. I trust you can find your own way out of town.” She didn’t wait for our reply. She just turned and left. When she was gone, Florence looked at Rafael more closely. “Be careful, young man,” she said. “Jessica has a strong heart, but that doesn’t mean it will not be broken a second time.” “I want nothing to do with her heart,” Rafael said and left the room, almost as quickly as Jessica.

The only thing she can do is to get better for Kayla, for her son, for herself, and for whatever lay ahead. The ride back to his pack was heavy with silence. Alpha Damien stared out the window, lost in thought. The image of Stephanie lying on the hospital bed replayed in his mind, bringing with it a flood of memories and regrets. He couldn't shake the guilt gnawing at him. His past actions had hurt her deeply, and seeing her in such a vulnerable state had forced him to confront the reality of his behavior.

I leaned my head against the cold window, staring at him through blurry, heavy eyelids as he climbed into the driver's seat. "Why do you do it?" I asked, my voice cracking into a rough, pathetic whisper. Marcus didn't look at me. He started the engine, shifting the car into gear. "Do what, Alpha?" "This," I muttered, waving a limp hand between the two of us. "Following me around. Cleaning up my messes. Dragging me out of gutters." I let out a harsh, self-deprecating laugh that sounded more like a dry sob. "Why do you have such a pathetic person as an Alpha, Marcus? Tell me the truth. You look at me, and you see a failure, don't you? A coward who couldn't even protect his own mate. A man who

The realization that I had been fooled for quite a while now irked me, and even the fact that he was so chill about it irked me even further. “Why…?” I muttered, confusedly. “Why would you both do this to me?” My voice broke with sadness as I spoke but I paid no attention to it. I was hurt too. “I have always wanted to be an Alpha…” Jessica drawled, immediately catching my attention. “I knew you were next in line to your father and that whoever you got married to automatically became the Alpha.” She spat. With undivided attention, I listened to her steely voice that echoed around the empty space while my gaze never flickered away from hers.

“I don’t even know how it all slipped so fast. I wasn’t in control…I thought I was protecting you, thought rejection was the only way to keep you safe. But I was wrong. God, I was so wrong. And now… if this is the end, then let it be said. Larissa—you’re the only wish I ever had. “I don’t regret being Alpha. But I regret every second I lived without you by my side . “I always loved you. I always do. You're the only thing I’ve ever wanted.” My eyes burned. My throat closed. The tears I had buried, the ones I swore I would never let fall for him again, spilled hot and silent down my cheeks. shaking, broken. Because in his voice, I heard the truth. Regret. Love. My eyes squeeze shut For a momen

"I would never want a filthy thing like you in my bed, you disgust me." But Jessica refused to be frightened so easily. A sly grin curved her lips as she teased, "Is that what you thought when you invited me to shower with you the other night? When we kissed and..." She made a lustful gesture, already reaching for her phone. "I have proof of our little rendezvous right here." Before she could retrieve the phone, however, James was walking over to us, his shadow falling across the table like a threatening omen. Jessica froze, phone in hand, as the Alpha took it from her grasp with a casual flick of his wrist.

Ember let out a soft, humorless laugh. “Rest?” she echoed lightly. “How considerate.” She knew better. They weren’t giving her rest. They were stalling. They didn’t want her anywhere near Ryker yet—and she knew exactly why. Still, one question lingered in her mind. What could have driven a ruthless Alpha like Ryker Hale into such deep trauma… to the point of losing his mind? Inside the hotel room, Ember dropped her bag onto the couch and walked straight to the window. City lights shimmered below—familiar, yet distant. Five years ago, she had left this place drowning in tears.

Cliché but true. Adriana had concluded that if she had to be on the run for the rest of her life to protect her child from Niklaus then she would. Without hesitation. She had one regret though. She regretted not telling Celine she was pregnant. She regretted not calling Celine to tell her what she had seen at Niklaus’s mansion that day. She would have known what to do. She regretted not even calling Celine to ask how her writer's retreat in California had been going. Most of all she regretted not telling her best friend she was starting a new life in a foreign city she had never been to. Celine would have helped pick out a new name for a new identity. And that regret and guilt went on to sit

My wolf said interrupting my thoughts. Even if she did, she never showed it, she was brave, a lot more braver than any normal person. On reaching the house of the Alpha, I knocked. The door was opened by a girl who appeared to be his daughter. "You look familiar." She muttered staring at me. Before I could stop myself, my wolf released an angry growl ready to jump on her. "Bow to the Lycan King you stupid child!" The Alpha shouted from behind. Her eyes widened as she fell to the ground. "Forgive my insolence your highness."

"What happened that made you stay away so long? You didn't explain to me clearly earlier" I sighed, my shoulders slumping under the weight of my past. "I thought I explained it to you at the cafe..."I replied, my voice laced with exhaustion, "Yes, but you didn't give in the juice details?"Lucy nodded empathetically, her eyes filled with concern. I took a deep breath, my eyes clouding over as memories flooded back. "It started when Alice and I were living together, trying to build a new life.
