Biggest Regret In Life

BLURB. "A fucking Omega is my mate?" His cold voice left an echo in my ears. I was not hearing the hidden dangers in the words, rather, the outward look of it, "Oh my! The young alpha is my mate!" "I REJECT YOU AS MY MATE!" He shouted at me and my heart tightened in grief. "But don't worry, I will marry you to fulfill my father's last wish." He completed his words more dangerously. That is better, right? I smiled and was jubilant again. ______ Hazel thought she could change her husband's hatred to love. She thought she could be strong even without a wolf.

But little did she know the dangers awaiting her for marrying an alpha who was filled with hate... Let's journey through Hazel's life together and how her alpha owes her...

For eight years, I lived as a wife no one knew existed, built my life in silence, loving a man who never truly saw me. I gave him everything and he gave me nothing but cold nights…and quiet tears I cried alone. Still, I stayed. Day after days. Years after years. Enduring. Hoping. And breaking…slowly. Not until she came back. His first love. And he didn’t just welcome her into his wife, he brought her into our matrimonial home, right on our matrimonial bed. And the little girl I raised in my arms…now calls her momma. Choosing her over me. He thought I would stay. He believed I would keep loving him the way I always had—quietly, and endlessly—no matter what he did to me. But he thought wrong. Because that day…something inside me shattered, and something far more dangerous took his place. So I left. No tears. No begging. No looking back. And when I returned… I made sure I wasn’t the woman he remembered. Now, I stand beside a man the world fears. A man who doesn’t hide me. A man who looks at me like I am everything. “Stay away from her. She’s my wife.” Clyde growled, his hand tightening into a fist. I almost laughed. Because for the first time in eight years…those words meant nothing to me. He broke me once. Now he wants me back. But I didn’t come back for love. I came back to take everything he ever chose over me.

During Christmas dinner, my mother-in-law hinted for the umpteenth time that she wanted a grandchild. However, my husband, Zachary Cole, who had insisted on staying child-free in the past decade, only smiled and filled her plate. After dinner, he slipped onto the balcony. "There, there. Daddy will come see you on New Year's Day," he whispered. I stood in the corner of the living room with a glass of water in my hand, feeling cold as the words sank in. I stepped forward and forced a playful tone. "I just heard you say 'Daddy.' Got a secret kid stashed somewhere?" He rubbed his nose, his voice stiff. "You must've misheard. That's… just a friend's kid." My heart sank. I'd been married to him for a decade, so I knew exactly what he looked like when he was lying.

In my past life, my mother had adopted me out to my aunt, but kept my older sister close to her. I followed my aunt into the world of business and became a success that everyone envied. My sister, consumed by jealousy over my life, seduced my husband. To claim my fortune, she even schemed to burn down my villa. But she hadn't counted on the fire spreading too fast—we both perished in the blaze. Reborn, I now had a second chance. And of course, my sister was the first to step forward, claiming she should be my aunt's daughter. I smiled. Things were panning out just as I'd hoped.

Anger, in all shades, blared into his eyes as he pushed me against the wall, growling. “Don’t let any man touch you ever again!” My blood boiled at his audacity as I spat out. “You have already rejected me, Alpha Vincenzo. Now, you can’t …” The rest of my warning died down in my head as he lunged forward and wrapped his hand around my throat. Despite his maddening rage, his gruff voice sounded eerily calm, sending shivers down my spine. “Rejected or not, you are mine, Ashley. Touch another man, and trust me, I’ll make sure you see me tear him to shreds!” … Rejected, banished, and tormented. Ashley’s life was another name of hell as she struggled to survive in the rogue pack every single day. She loathed her ex, Alpha Vincenzo, the reason behind her endless misery. However, life wasn’t exactly a bed of roses for Vincenzo as well. Burning in the fire of regret, his love turned into obsession, driving his wolf to the edge of insanity. His only goal was to bring Ashley back, no matter how long it took. After five years of separation, their paths crossed again in a fateful encounter, entangling their fates with a bizarre backlash of rejection. But Ashley was sure of one thing, she would never forgive Vincenzo! As her hatred clashed with Vincenzo’s obsession, the old feelings surfaced, reigniting the spark. Would she be able to resist the temptation of the bond that still simmered between them? Or the storm of true love would wash away all the grievances of the past?

"I am your husband, Leah! We're still married, and we love each other!" cried Jerome as he glared at her. "He lied to you, and you know it! You have been separated since more than a year ago!" said Adrian, his jaw tightening and his fists clenching tightly. Leah stood between the two with a throbbing pain in her head. If that damn memory had appeared soon, it wouldn't have been like that! Three months ago, Leah woke up from her long coma and found that her life had completely changed. The doctor said she had lost some of her memory, so she had no idea what had happened in the past five years of her life. Suddenly, a young billionaire named Jerome introduced himself as her husband, and when she started to believe that fact, a mysterious man named Adrian showed up and broke everything by telling her that she was being manipulated by her own husband.

On the Lunaris Festival, the palace banquet glittered with candlelight. It lasted until the Crown Prince rose and dismissed every consort of his for the sake of his first love, the woman he had never stopped idolizing. Everyone else accepted the gold coins from the prince and returned home for reunions. I had nowhere to go. I found a rope and hanged myself at the gate of the Withered Court. I had been reborn into this world and spent 21 years locked in the System's mission. It demanded that I court four designated male leads and earn absolute affection from at least one of them. I failed every route. The final path collapsed in my hands. The System offered one last mercy. If this body died, I could return home and reunite with my family. As my consciousness slipped away, I thought I heard someone scream my name, as if the world itself were breaking.

J'ai su depuis mon enfance que j'étais destinée à épouser Kaden, l'héritier Alpha de la meute Pierre de Lune. En tant que seule détentrice du lignage Béni de la Lune, je suis la seule capable de briser la malédiction qui hante le lignage Alpha Pierre de Lune depuis des générations. Il y a un siècle, l'ancêtre Pierre de Lune a publiquement insulté une femme Alpha déchue lors de ses funérailles. Il s'en est moqué « Ce n'est qu'une louve. Pourquoi des funérailles aussi fastueuses ? Comment une femme pourrait-elle jamais protéger les nôtres ? Elle a probablement couché pour arriver au sommet. » La Déesse Séléné était enragée. Elle a jeté une malédiction perpétuelle : chaque héritier Alpha direct de la meute Pierre de Lune développerait des traits féminins à son dix-huitième anniversaire, régressant en un vulgaire Oméga. Seule l'union avec un loup Béni de la Lune peut lever la malédiction. J'étais amoureuse de Kaden depuis des années et ne voulais rien de plus que le sauver. Maya a prétendu posséder elle aussi le lignage Béni de la Lune. Kaden a tenté de l'épouser, mais j'ai exposé son mensonge et l'en ai empêché. Contraint par ses parents, Kaden a finalement fait de moi sa Luna. Après m'avoir marquée, Kaden n'a pas régressé en Oméga, mais il n'a pas non plus éveillé son lignage de Roi Alpha. Cette même nuit, Maya, au cœur brisé, est allée se promener seule dans les bois, où elle a été acculée par un groupe de renégats. Mes parents et Kaden me détestaient pour cela. Ils affirmaient que j'étais une menteuse dont le lignage était impur, ce qui expliquait pourquoi Kaden n'avait jamais vraiment accédé au pouvoir. Ils étaient convaincus que Maya était la véritable Bénie de la Lune. Ils croyaient que ma jalousie l'avaient tuée. Par une nuit de pleine lune, Kaden m'a arraché la gorge devant toute la meute. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais revenue au jour où Kaden était arrivé à la meute Lune d'Argent pour faire sa demande.

The night before my mating ceremony with Alpha Garrett Northwood of the Silverpine Pack, he held a grand Luna ceremony for my silver-poisoned stepsister behind my back. He held Serena close under the starlit sky, his smile tender in a way I'd never seen: "You're the only one I truly love, Serena." "Even though Maya and I are already registered as mates with the Alpha Council, she'll never have my heart. You're the only one I recognize as my Luna." The pack members cheered and blessed them as they completed the ceremony with joy. I watched it all without crying or screaming. Instead, I quietly scheduled an abortion appointment. I've loved Garrett Northwood for twelve years, ever since I first shifted as an adult. But his heart still only had room for my stepsister Serena. If that's how it was, I'd let go. Later, I joined the secluded Herbal Research Center of the Alpha Council. I left Garrett nothing but a mate bond dissolution agreement. But for some reason, Garrett—who had always treated me with disdain—suddenly went crazy begging me not to leave.
