Brothers Regret After I Left Novels & Stories

It’s surprising that the past doesn’t affect me as much as it did before. I no longer cry when I think about my parents or Lily. I have accepted that they are not a part of my life anymore. “ I didn’t know you had to go through something like that. ” Ania mumbles under her breath. “ My goal was not to make you pity me or sympathize with me, Ania. You said you are unwanted for your Mom, and your brothers hate you. You needed to know that’s not true. Your Mom, even after getting scorned by the world for her decisions, still doesn’t think you are a mistake. And your brother, despite facing your wrath…still continues to think about how he can make you feel better. He was…so lost when he realized

“Thank you Josh, thank you. I don't even want to think about what could have happened if you weren't there.” “You should talk to her, don't keep her locked in. I have to leave, things got messed up at home, I tried breaking off the engagement and it got heated, I needed to cool off and went to the party, but I have to go home now.” “ Thank you so much, Josh” “ What are brothers for? I always got your back.” I walked out, leaving the family alone for now while taking in the fact that I had to make him regret his actions.

About the shape of the story I was walking inside of now. But the Gate wasn’t done feeding. “Next,” it said. Jax swallowed, rolled his shoulders, and then stepped up. He pressed his palm to the glass, fingers splayed. “State your regret.” He blew out a breath, humor stripping back to raw edges. “I regret,” he said, “leaving my little brother on his own when I knew he needed me.” His voice was rougher than usual.

Dad walked out. Vanessa's parents erupted in curses behind him. His own parents had never liked the Bennetts. They called the housekeeper over and had them thrown out. Dad wanted everyone who'd hurt Mom to pay for it. That was his revenge. But it was only the beginning. He had made a vow in front of her grave. Every person who had hurt her would answer for it, every single one. And so the years passed. I grew up and took over the Carter Group. But Dad was never the same man again.

"Vivian, to be honest... I’m glad I took that hit. At least it gave me a month to be selfish and keep you by my side." He wiped away a tear, his voice choking up. "This month was like a beautiful dream, but it’s time to wake up. Go back to D.C. Go do the great things you're meant to do." "If you ever get tired... if you ever want to come home... your brother will be right here waiting." I gave a final nod and walked away. Before boarding my private jet, I glanced back one last time. Behind a stone pillar at the terminal, Rocco was hiding, watching me go.

“I don't deserve to be in this house at all, brother. If you don't want me here, please tell Alexa, I'll leave.” He'd known I wouldn't. He'd known I wasn't that kind of person. He'd left the cracked rifle propped against the wall of the study for two days after that, just to remind me. After a while, he seemed to suddenly remember I was still there. He tilted his head and asked me: "Brother, do you want to come too?" I remembered that I needed to tell Alexa and Riley about my departure. This seemed like the perfect opening. "I can't. In a few days, I'm going to the Shadow Pack — "

Somehow that was worse. I lay awake until dawn, touching my lips and hating myself so much I could barely breathe. He had a Luna. He had a ceremony in a month. And two years ago, he stood on that balcony and told his sister and his Beta that I was something to use and throw away. Nothing had changed. Nothing. 'He cried,' Nyx whispered. 'Drunk men cry.' 'He said he did it on purpose. He said he wanted us gone. Why would he want us gone if...'

Three days before my mating ceremony, my brothers called my adopted sister and me into the Moon Hall to draw lots for our future mates. The silver token meant Noah Hale, my childhood sweetheart. The black token meant Alpha Kieran Blackwood, a dying man from a northern pack. As the younger sister, Ivy drew first. She got Noah. My brothers looked relieved. “You’re the daughter of a former Alpha and Luna,” Adrian said. “Blackridge will respect your bloodline. If Kieran dies, they’ll send you home safely.” Then he looked at Ivy, the orphaned daughter of the man who had once saved our parents. “Ivy has no family left. Blackridge might look down on her. We can’t send her there alone.” Even Noah ag

At the full-moon celebration for Leah Rosen, the family's adopted daughter, my three brothers chained me to the judgment pillar in the pack square. My fiancé, Kyle Mercer, drew a silver blade and plunged it into my chest himself, collecting a smal l cup of heart's blood to feed the moon moth larva Leah had bought on the black market. The larva, which had been stiff and lifeless, drank its fill of blood, and its translucent wings began to flutter. "It's alive. You win again, Leah." Leah threw herself into his arms, "You lost, Kyle. "I'll take Leah into town first. I've already sent someone to brew a clotting draught. I'll be right back." I tried to call out to him, but my eldest brother D

The words struck harder than I expected and the feeling of regret that I had tried pushing behind me overwhelmed me. “You just abandoned everything and ran off with that LOSER,” Eli continued bluntly, “ Dad thought you needed time and held onto the hope that one day you’d come back to your senses and realize he wasn’t worth it.” My gaze immediately shifted toward my brothers. Kane looked away with a guilty smile while Seth rubbed the back of his neck. In my previous life, they had eventually cut all contact with me after I repeatedly refused to come home. At the time, I’d convinced myself they didn’t care but now, I wasn’t so sure.
