The Alpha's Regret の小説・ストーリー

But mostly, they looked at him with cold indifference. After all, he had brought this upon himself. He was the one who pushed himself into the abyss. The once-mighty Alpha now looked like a beaten stray, kneeling on the cold ground as he confessed his sins to the empty sky. The scene couldn't have been more bitterly ironic.

If I did, my heart would betray me. As we reached our seats, I glanced up and caught Alpha Ethan’s expression. For a fraction of a second, just a crack in the mask, he looked at his son like something had twisted inside him. Regret. It was only there for a heartbeat. Then it was gone, replaced by Alpha composure. But I saw it. And it didn’t move me. Not enough. Because where had that regret been when I was sixteen and trembling under the weight of what I was? Where had it been when his pack let people beat me and laugh and call me tainted? Where had it been when Keiran stepped away from me every time someone walked past?

My throat worked hard, and I glanced at Hailey, clinging to my arm. Hailey wasn't only the woman who'd saved my life in the fire. She was carrying my own flesh and blood now. My hesitation lasted only a second. But that one second was more than enough for Sera. "Alpha." Sera gave a cold, sarcastic laugh. "You're as pathetic as ever." Alpha. She called me Alpha. Now she wouldn't even say my name. A suffocating ache hit me. I still wanted to explain something, when a clear, childish voice came from behind.

"You're lying. Trying to manipulate me with guilt. Our son is fine. He's probably hiding because he's afraid of you." The casual dismissal of our child's death broke something inside me. "You know what, Damon? You're right. Serena should move in. Give her my room too while you're at it." His pupils contracted to pinpoints—I recognized the sign of his impending rage. "Don't test me, Aria! What Alpha doesn't have multiple lovers? I've been more faithful to you than most! One mistress is nothing!" "One mistress?" I laughed bitterly. "Is that supposed to make me grateful?"

Rose's father, getting Rose's signal, immediately grabbed Rose's hand and deliberately raised his voice: "Alpha, why are you still coming here? Rose was injured by your political enemies and poisoned with silver. Her life is ending. It's all because of you." Rose's father extended his hands as if to drive Marcus away. Rose struggled to stop him, "Dad, don't blame the Alpha. I don't blame him. I asked him to come. My dying wish is to hold a mating ceremony with the Alpha. As long as the Alpha fulfills this wish, I'll die without regrets."

My heart ached so bad. I went to see the Healer in our pack alone. Her hands moved gently over my body and rested over my heart. I felt something cold inside. She sighed and looked at me. “The wolf venom is already near your heart. You will be lucky if you can make it to the next spring. Does our Alpha King know about your situation?” I shook my head. “Please promise me, you will not tell Alex.” Honestly, I am not afraid of dying. I am only afraid of the pain.

She shifted slightly, curled up on the secondhand couch. My wolf caught the faint smell of blood seeping through the cracks in our bond. My nails dug into my palms, a mix of violent possessiveness and regret burning in my chest—this body, which once shared warmth with me, was now being influenced by another Alpha's scent. Camellia's hand tightened at her side. "I told you, I don't know. Maybe when I stop loving you..." Her words were cut off by my wolf's howl. The scent of pine needles swept through the small living room like a storm, knocking over the new ceramic mug she'd bought.

Margot pressed on desperately, "the judgement had already been passed, and insist we continue with it." "Have your seat, Margot," one of the judges said coolly. The command was final, causing Margot's jaw to tighten. Her fingers curled at her sides before she obeyed, and before she lowered herself into her seat, her eyes found mine. She passed disdain and rage through her stare. Around us, the chamber was just on the brink of breaking into chaos again. "This is a disgrace!" an Alpha shouted. "Alpha Kyril just spat on all our faces! An Alpha doesn't drop a child case. Not for a hybrid!"

Like lead on your tongue—except it travels all the way to your heart and refuses to leave, no matter how much you want to shake it away. Even after every piece of bullshit she has done, he is still worried about her. What a joke. I look up at him, and without mincing words, I ask, “What do you think will happen to your beloved, Alpha?” Our eyes meet, and I feel that darkness again. The urge… The crazy urge to bring him down. To break him. To make him realize what he is doing to me. “She will get what she deserves,” I continue. “She claims to have graduated from a reputable university, yet she still chooses to go against one of the most basic, yet extremely important rules in our line. The ho

I know he was not expecting that reply, and I was not expecting to say that, but yeah, we are, and I can't hide it anymore. Everyone feels that I have this home that is happy and a wife that is good, but the only joy I derive from that house is my daughter. My little angel is the only thing that brings joy to my life, and without her, I would be an empty vessel devoid of feelings. I want to do all I can for her but not with her mother because I am in love with someone else. Alexa has always been the love of my life. There has not been any doubt about it. I know I messed up badly and hurt her in ways that I am ashamed of, and if I could go back, I would do things differently and not make the
