Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 26: “I was blinded”
RYAN Thalia's assistant is quite the looker, and the brains on the girl simply make her way hotter than most girls who throw themselves at me. I'm not blind to the way she looks at me, but if I fuck her? It'll be a damn shame to ghost her, that too an impossible one. The best I can do is keep it professional between us, at least until the night before she leaves, I'm a patient man. “Ugh, Ruston needs to fucking quit. Look at how lousy he plays, he's dragging the entire damn team down with him.” Amara frowns, staring at the TV screen like she could just jump inside. “You see that?” she quickly turns to me before drifting back to the basketball game we're watching. “Useless. Height doesn't cut it alone, Niko! Fucking play for goodness sake you darn spoiled rich brat.” I can't help but laugh at her, despite her trash against my team and complaints about the team she's supporting losing not once has she drifted from the TV. She stares like she could just go and score herself the

THALIA Ever since I came back to Flame Valley I've been nothing but confused, I knew coming here would definitely mess me up in a way but things have gone from bad to worse and I'm afraid I'm becoming the girl my mother walked in half dead on. I promised myself I would never see that look in her eyes again because I don't want to hurt another person I love but I'm afraid I'm failing, I'm falling short of life. Even with my hair done and a pantsuit on, I don't recognize the woman I've grown accustomed to loving. I'm starting to feel just as stupid as Knox claims I am. Not willing to lose the one part of my life that pushes me to live another day, I call my therapist Lana. I have at least thirty minutes before we leave for the last of the Conference today, which I'm fairly looking up to. “Thalia.” Lana smiles at me from my laptop screen, looking as flawless as always. I wonder if that's why people like me trust her with our flaws because she eliminated any surface ones she migh

“Did you say something?” Knox glares, his eyes piercing.I nod, fully pumped on advice from my therapist. “I said I didn't offer, you bullied me into it, and honestly I'm quite sick of your behavior.”“Ms Laurel.” Amara hisses, warning me I'm poking the bear.“No, let me say this because if I don't say it today then he'll think I am okay with the way things are.” my gaze drifts back to Knox, noting Ryan's return which gives some sort of comfort. “I'm not.”I match his glare. “I'm so fucking done with you bullying me, trying to find faults in my work, which news flash!” I lowly chuckle, “There's none. There aren't any because I'm good at my job. I'm the god darn best lawyer in this region and if me not beating your top lawyers wasn't enough? Try a little Google search.”Ryan laughs, pulling Amara away. “Get in the car, star player.” and there goes my support team.Knox watches me, he didn't expect the outburst. “You should watch your fucking tone when you talk to me.”“I won't, because

“Family lounge!” she yells back, leaning towards the entrance. Knox walks in, hardly acknowledging me. “Where is my-what are you doing here?” he snaps, after taking a second look at me he realizes it wasn't just her here. “I'm just-” His gaze cuts to Mariella. “I thought I told you I didn't want her around my house and much less my child.” “She came to get Nova, they have plans.” Mariella swallows. “Bullshit, they see each other every fucking day, and th-” “I should have waited in the car,” I grumble, interrupting his useless point. Mariella jumps in quickly, “No. It's fine that you're here, right Alpha Knox?” “No.” Knox asserts, “Nova may have won the choice to keep her around but I don't think you should be buddy-buddy with her. Her bad influence could rub off on you, or worse on the kids.” Mariella gasps, “Alpha Knox, that's mean. Thalia-” “No. Knox is right.” I wave her off, causing both of them to stare wide-eyed at me. “I don't think this friendship
Last Updated : 2025-01-28Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 30: I hate you
MARIELLA I have never wanted to hate Thalia but she makes it so hard for me with the things she does, for example sleeping with Knox. Of course, Knox is at fault too but Thalia shouldn't have told me. I knew they had slept together when Knox returned from the workshop, he smelled so strongly of her but I convinced myself it was because they were together the whole of the weekend and when we had sex, all my anxiety and suspicion died. He no longer smelled her like, there was only me and that was enough to ease my anxiety. However, Thalia's scent lingers stronger than mine ever does but as long as he doesn't smell like her I'm fine. However, I need to get used to seeing her and not being friendly with her. I spent too many years being nothing but a devoted friend and now it's an involuntary action but it has to stop, now. “Arabella's Mommy! Mommy!” Arabella screams, out of view but her voice keeps getting louder because she's coming closer. “Where are you?” she yelps, her voice

Knox frowns. “What?” “I wouldn't let her go with Nova to see Thalia and now she hates me. Am I losing her? Thought it would take a few years more, to be honest. Teen years..” “No.” he assures me, taking my hand. “You're not, you can't lose her. She's just mad you didn't let her go with Nova.” I shake my head. “She seemed pretty upset.” He nods, pulling me into him and leading me away from the wandering eyes and whispers around me. “She's Bella, of course, she's mad but she will let it go in a while and start pestering you for attention. She's a bit short tempered but she's a good girl, just like her mom.” she grins at me. “Nova shouldn't have told her. Couldn't she have just said she was going to the doctor? Bella hates the hospital.” After a few beats of silence, he sighs. “It's fine, where is she?” “Ryan took her,” I tell him, following him still. We go around the house and find them, Ryan is walking around the car park with Arabella soundly sleeping on his sh

“Getting your nails painted isn't what we pay you to do, frittering company time isn't a meeting, it's insolent.” he snaps, clenching his jaw. “First of all.” Rose laughs, but the sound only seems to make him more angry. “Mr Winslow, you don't pay me a fucking peny. I don't work for you, you're imagining things.” “You may not work for me but still doesn't explain why you insulted my investor rather than signing him as I instructed you to do.” Rose frowns, “Because I don't want to spend embezzled money on a project this pure.” “Embezzled?” he scoffs, “Do not making baseless accusations, do you even know who he is?” She nods, “Yes. But it would seem it is you that doesn't know him, you need to do deeper background checks.” She sighs, “And, if you had gone to your office, you'd have found the file and message I left your assistant and in case you need another reason to throw a tantrum.” She rolls her eyes, “I stopped activities on the second floor, it's unsafe and will resume o

“Why?” “Because Thalia is here.” she says, proceeding to walk away hastily. Just as a scream pierces the air, a raw scream I know all too well. “Thalia?” My heart races, her scream echoing in my brain. She's in pain, I can feel it. Our mate bond never weakened enough for me to not know of things like this, distance helped but having her near has been a game changer. I don’t know who I am with her around, I hate it, I hate her. “Yes.” Nova proceeds to walk away, making me follow her all the way into the kitchen where she damps a liquid in an ice pack. “Where is she?” “She's in the panic room, it seems her heat got a little out of control so I took her in there and ordered off all unmated males from coming here.” Again. She screams making me flinch. “I told her to go home, why is she? Didn't you just drive her to her home?” Nova sighs. “Because I want to take care of my friend and besides, she'll be good in...” she trails off, her gaze lowering to her wrist. “Two

“Maybe if he wasn't my chosen then I'd be happy.” I swallow, I picked Aaron for a mate, my ancestors really cursed me there by crossbreeding with lycans and interfering with the perfect assortment by the moon goddess. Okay, maybe not perfect, there's Thalia and Knox are proof even the moon goddess can get things wrong. “You know, I would have waited for my fated mate or died waiting, anything would be better than this.” “Aww, I'm sorry, Novie.” Thalia caresses my arm. “I wish I knew what to say but my love life is a bigger fuck up.” “True,” we share a laugh. “But I am fine, I'll get over him and start over, just me and Katie Rose...” I trail off, forgetting he will always be around because we share a child, and he will torment me with that. “It's not your fault, you're not wrong for wanting a peaceful life.” “I'm wrong for not forgiving him,” I admit. Many women would overlook this and hand him a second chance but I'm just not there yet, I don't think I'll ever be there. “No

“Calm down,” I tell her, watching how easily her emotional state has escalated. I'm just trying to find something that works for me and my children and not having her around worked just fine for me. “No, you,” she points at me, shaking still. “You don't tell me what to do, you're sick! I just found out you knocked up for sport, tortured me because I didn't get pregnant when you hate me for killing our child?” “Thalia,” I warn, not liking the way her breathing pattern has quickened with each word she says. “Sorry, touchy subject, I know.” she nervously laughs, misreading my concern. “But I'm not giving up my baby to some sadistic psychopath with had a brain cell.” I ignore the jab at my intelligence, and still unsure of why she's so upset when she's mentioned she doesn't want a baby. “You yourself have expressed your need to not have a baby, if you give the child to me I'll raise it better than you can.” I tell her, knowing the example of my parenting is sitting at home happy a
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 80: Constant Fights
I lift her and sit her in my lap, holding her close while I try to find words that won't sound too resentful. “Your daddy doesn't like your auntie Thalia and when you're so close to her, it hurts him. And me too, she's nice but she can be very bad sometimes.” “Why?” “I don't know,” I sigh. “But if you want to go to school, and be a flower girl in Mommy and Daddy's wedding then you have to stop liking Thalia.” I prompt, watching her frown, her gaze a multitude of unspoken questions. “If you do that, I can convince Daddy to let you go to school.” She frowns, “But Mommy, I like her.” “So I do,” I frown. “But if you really want to go to school, and get that pretty dollhouse daddy said no to then you have to stay away from Thalia and treat her like strangers.” Arabella doesn't respond, she's been wanting to attend school since she
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 79: Let's take a break
MARIELLA When I arrived yesterday morning, Alpha Knox had already left the pack house and he came back really late. Unfortunately for me, I was awake at the time, trying to sort through the clothes I purposefully disorganized to keep myself busy. He said he wanted to talk when I was free so I've kept myself busy, all day. Whatever he wants to say to me I don't care, I don't want to hear it because it will push him further from me. For the past two hours, I've managed to hide out in my room while Nova plays with the children. I'm checking out wedding magazines when someone knocks on my door, I want to pretend I'm asleep but whoever is on the other side knows I don't go to sleep before Eleven thirty, everyone in the house knows. Hiding in the closet or under the bed is a considerable option but when they knock a second time, I'm inclined to answer. “Come in!” I yell, watching th
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 78: But Alpha Knox detests Thalia
“Because you're licking that man's boots instead of working hard.” she counters, “You're a woman Mariella. The only man you know how to work can't be your mate, work them all to your side. Knox should be worshipping you, not the other way around. Stop playing coy.” I swallow, feeling like a child being scolded for never being good enough. “I am n-no,” I stutter. Mother nods at me, petting Priya. “Then what are you doing? Hmm, you're embarrassing me as your mother, your step sister laughs at you, she snagged her a beta just last month.” “And sister Mariella, you're prettier than sister Amrita.” Ignoring Priya I turn to my mother, “I can't choose my mate Mom. However, I can choose my second. Knox is my second, mother.” “Hmm,” mother nods. “Is your obsession with him fed by the fact that he belongs to Thalia?” “He doesn't!” I argue, my heartbeat picking up. “Mariella, what has gotten into you?” my mother's eyes widen, I never raise my voice at her but when she says things l
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 77: Secret Activities
He's going to scare me into a coma one of these days, why is he so sneaky, and adamant about being close to me? He points down and I roll the window down, rolling my eyes at the grim stare he's giving me. I don't know what he found to blame me for but I do know that I don't want to hear it, my day won't be ruined. Serenity woke up today, and nothing will take my smile away, this is an answered prayer that I will savour. “I don't want to hear it, I'm leaving.” I tell him. “Come and have breakfast.” he glares. “What?” I frown. “Breakfast? You're mad at me because of breakfast?” “I'm not mad at you, come on. Amara and Nova cooked.” I frown, the people he's mentioning were asleep when I left the campsites. There's no way they were able to cook anything at all, unless they went back to sleep after cooking. MARIELLA I try not to look at the man in my mother's basement as I put my clothes on. If I stare too long, I'll start to feel things that might comprise the smooth route

Thalia shrugs, “Maybe the pup hates you, I know I do. And please watch your voice, someone might hear.” she whispers, her gaze wandering around, we're nearly alone, everyone around is either drunk or too consumed by their mates. “I don't care if they hear me.” “Oh, so that's why you haven't told Mariella yet?” she nods to herself “You want her to get wind of it, smart.” “Stop it.” I swallow, Mariella not being here has momentarily lifted a weight off my shoulders. Thalia frowns, “Stop what?” “Stop bringing Mariella up, she might trip and fall from all the thoughts you're giving her.” “I shouldn't even be talking to you.” she sighs, staring off into the river again. I watch her, the way her hair catches the subtle breeze, the way the moon shines almost directly on her face. She's beautiful, the most beautiful woman I've ever seen but her inside is ugly. My wolf laughs at me, for someone who should be having my back he's a fucking betrayer. “We felt her insides, there

“S-she had no place to go,” he stutters. “it's only been a week and I swear to you I've not touched her, my sister is there too she'll tell you the truth. I swear on my daughter, you're the only woman that I love and it's killing me not having you with me every day.” “You made that choice, if you loved me you'd have thought about your actions.” “Baby, if I could turn back time...” he trails off, reaching for me but I take a step back. “I love you.” “Then choose me, if you love me you're going to put me first for once.” “I can't leave, Florence will—” “Stop. That's enough, unless it's about Katie Rose don't you dare call me. You'll be hearing from my lawyer soon.” I walk away, grateful most people are hunting so they can't see me cry. I missed out on Ryan's first kill of the night to talk to him, to spend time with him while he plotted to stick me in one house with what broke our marriage. I barely make it to my tent before I break down, crying on my knees when I bump into
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 74: Thalia & Knox 2.0
“Nothing,” she grins up at him. “Show me,” he orders. Arabella frowns, “I was showing Aunt Thalia.” she pulls out her hands, sucks in a breath and morphs her claws. “Tadaa.” “Where did you learn that?” “Over there,” she points, her gaze finding Knox again. “Are you okay Daddy?” “Yes, my little girl is growing up.” “I won't grow up, it makes you sad.” she stomps her foot. “He's not sad. He's happy and, pretty soon you'll be shifting like everyone.” “Daddy said I might not but that's okay because it makes me unique.” she beams. That's okay? No, it's not. My memories of being one of the bullied wolfless kids kick in and I want to snap Knox in half, even though he bullied me when I was younger. “Why would you say that, she's only three of course she's going to shift. She's already got her claws and she's growing big.” “So big.” Ryan ruffles her hair, making her pout. “Curiosity here,” he raises his hand. “Who said, I mean how do you know Bella's age?” “Daddy, Uncle
