Novel & Cerita The Alpha King's Regret

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

I will always miss him. "Mother has been hiring new servants for me and none has been good enough to replace him. "Sir, the ceremony is about to start. Everyone is waiting for you. My newest servant informs. "Let's not keep our guests waiting. Some have travelled for days to get here." Mother says, standing up from her seat. I nod my head and stand up too. Today, I will be the Alpha King

ALPHA RYDER As the sun set, casting a warm glow over the packhouse, the scent of dinner mingled with the comforting aroma of the forest. After leaving my office, I went to my room to take a quick shower before heading to dinner. The last two days have tested my wisdom and instincts as Alpha King. While I wasn't going to let what happened deter me, I couldn't deny feeling a little disappointed in myself. After the shower, I changed into comfortable clothing and headed downstairs. As I passed Bethany’s floor, her scent tickled my senses, and I eagerly anticipated having her in my arms. She had a calming effect on me, which I needed.

“What about the Hale family’s reputation? What about the alliances we’ve built for decades? You are placing everything in the hands of a woman who clearly hates us!” “She has every reason to,” the king said softly. His voice dropped, heavy with regret and guilt that had been buried for far too long. If only he had stepped in earlier. If only he had stopped his wife and son when they were humiliating and tormenting her. If only he had protected her when she was still willing to endure everything for love. Maybe things wouldn’t have ended like this. Marliee clenched her fists. “So now you regret it? Now you want to pretend we were wrong? Cameron, I never thought you could be swayed like this.”

“Each of you. But today, your lies won’t protect you. Your titles won’t protect you.“ Arthur’s gaze swept the room again, harder this time. Unforgiving. “This is your reckoning.” He let the silence sit for a breath. Then another. Let it settle into the bones of everyone watching. “I am the Alpha King,” he said, voice low and dangerous. “My word is law. My judgment is final. And I will not let this pack this kingdom rot from the inside while people like you hide behind false loyalty and cowardice.” He turned to the crowd again, his presence towering, absolute. “Do not mistake my silence for mercy. Do not mistake my restraint for weakness. I gave you the chance to do what was right. You failed

Seven rogues burst through from the shadows, their snarls shattering the stillness and making the atmosphere filled with noise. Dirty fur, scarred skin, desperation reeking off them. Rogues, Wolves who’d turned feral from hunger and hate. At their front, a scarred brute with teeth too yellow to be called human or wolf. “Alpha King,” he spat, his voice carrying venom. “This is the end of you and your kingdom.” I almost laughed. A smile tugged at my lips instead, dark and sharp. “Just seven of you guys consider yourselves strong enough to end I and my kingdom?” I tilted my head, mockery dripping from my tone. “I am highly offended.”

“Oh please, Olivia. Of course, you didn't. That bitch deserves worse. You made the right choice, and besides, Alpha Rick can be extremely romantic. Trust me, you won't regret ever falling in love with him.” I was already feeling how romantic he was, that I had to think and rethink over my decision of getting over him. When I realized I couldn't, I had to give fate a try. Besides, there was always a second chance for everything. “Olivia?” A voice called. “Yes?” I turned, meeting the maidservant who had just called me. “Is there any problem?” “Not at all. The Alpha King wants to see you.” I exchanged glances with Stella and Victory, understanding what the look meant, they bursted out laughing.

"You're supposed to be one of my best!" The Rogue crumbled, falling to his knees, and wailing as if he had seen his own death. "Please, Alpha Jax, forgive me! I tried everything, but I couldn't find her! I failed, I failed!" Alpha Jax's face twisted in rage. "Failed?!" he spat. "You've condemned me to death! Alex, kill him! Now!" Alex hesitated for a moment, then nodded and drew his sword. The Rogue cowered, begging for mercy, but Alpha Jax was unforgiving. With a swift strike, Alex ended the Rogue's life, and his body slumped to the floor.

No one could resist the absolute pressure of his lineage. Meanwhile, at the edge of the altar, piercing screams and the sound of chaotic scuffling broke out. "God! Alpha Kaden has turned into an Omega in heat!"

I murmur to myself, triggering my mate’s questioning gaze. The Alpha King is standing in the middle of the room with his arms spread, causing the fabric of the long sleeves of his toga-like cape to flow towards the floor. “Future Alpha Blackwood, what an honor.” His clothing rustles when he joins his hands after welcoming us. “I see that you have been reunited with your future Luna. What a beautiful sight for my sore eyes.” “My Luna,” I comment, ignoring my father’s growl. “You can cross out the future, King Orestes.”
