Chloe’s POV

The silence in the house was unbearable, and I could feel the weight of everything pressing down on me. It had been a few days since I’d decided to take action against Jax and Mendy, but I hadn’t received any information from my contact. Nothing.

The nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach grew every minute that passed without a word. The longer I waited, the more uncertain I became.

I sat in the study, staring at the space in front of me, and the quiet hum of the house around me. The kids were at school, and Liam was busy with meetings, he had enough to deal with without me adding to it. I didn’t want to bother him. I knew he was working hard to protect us, but it didn’t feel like enough. Not with Mendy and Jax scheming behind our backs.

I tried to focus on other things, even though my mind kept drifting back to the problem at hand. I had so many plans, so many things to do once Mendy was no longer a threat. But it felt like a luxury to even think about those plans when

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 30

    Chloe’s POV I headed straight for Scott’s place, my heart pounding. I barely registered the drive. I just knew I had to talk to him, had to get some answers. My mind replayed the conversation with her contact. I got to the door and rang the bell. It took some minutes before I could hear the response and the creak of the door came live, Scott opened the door, his face lighting up with a surprised smile when he saw me. “Chloe! You here?” He gave me a warm hug. “Well, she had come at a good time,” his wife, Nora, called out teasingly from the kitchen. “I’m almost done cooking!”Despite my rising heart I still managed a small laugh. Scott grinned and pulled me inside. “Come on.”But I couldn’t smile, not really. The moment the door shut behind us, that hollow feeling returned, gnawing at me. I felt like I was drowning in a mixture of anger and sadness, and Scott noticed. His eyes flicked from me to Nora, and concern etched all over m his face.Nora must have picked up on it, too, beca

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 31

    Chloe’s POV My fingers clenched around the steering wheel as I glared at the road ahead, barely seeing anything but red. Every instinct in me screamed to drive straight to my father’s house and demand he tell me everything, why he’d kept Mendy hidden, what he’d been thinking. I decided to call him and immediately I dialed his number, my phone rang with another call, interrupting me.I stared at the number, inhaling loudly before picking up. “How’re you doing?” Lia’s voice sounded in my ear, she didn’t waste time with greetings, and I wasn’t surprised. My mouth opened, and I took a shaky breath, feeling the anger and frustration bubble over. “What’s happening? Why is your breath shaky?” Her voice held a hint of concern. “Lia, I’m so angry right now, I don’t even know what to do with myself.” I paused, pressing a hand against my forehead. “I feel like… like everything is falling apart.”“Oh! Just take a breath,” she soothed. “Why don’t you come over for a bit? Let’s talk about it

    Liam’s POVI gripped the phone tighter, trying to keep my voice calm as I spoke. “Chloe, listen to me, don’t be scared, I won’t let anything happen to you, and don’t stop the car. No matter what, keep moving, I will be with you soon. Do you understand?” I asked. “Yes, I understand.” Her breathing was quick. “Good.” I motioned to the guard beside me, signaling him to deploy our team immediately. “We will be there in less than five minutes. You’re going to be okay, okay?.”I dropped the call planning to grab my car key but before I could even lag my hands on the key, I felt my body tense and my mind connect to someone. Immediately I knew it was my beta. “My Alpha, we’ve got a situation. The pack’s under attack. Unknown men seem like rogues, but something’s off.” For a split second, I felt torn in two directions, like I was being pulled apart by forces beyond my control. My wife needed me, but my pack was under attack. I knew Chloe was scared, and I wanted nothing more than to be the

    Liam’s POV I slammed my fist down on the wall, the noise echoing through the room as everyone went silent. “How could this happen?” I demanded, my eyes scanning the room, watching the guard in front of me fumble for words. He looked shaken, sweat beading on his brow, but he couldn’t meet my gaze.“Well?” I pressed, feeling my patience slipping. “How was something so important left unprotected?”He swallowed, shifting uncomfortably. “Alpha, I… I don’t have an explanation,” he muttered. “We weren’t prepared for this kind of attack. They were in and out before we knew what was happening.”“Not prepared?” I snapped, letting my voice sharp. “Your only job is to be prepared. Those documents were vital, and you let them slip right out from under you.”I walked out of the room, going to the office where the document had been rubbed, tons of guard lined the way in with their sword held tight beside them. “Is the iron with you held for fashion?” I asked annoyingly and they all shook in fear

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Book 2 Chapter 34

    Liam’s POV The shadows had grown longer across the courtyard, and every instinct in me was on high alert. The recent attacks were relentless, each one more calculated than the last. Whoever was behind them knew my weaknesses, hitting us where it hurt the most and using our strategies against us. Every time we seemed to gain ground, something slipped. Someone slipped.The realization was gnawing at me that someone within my walls, one of my people, was feeding Jax information.But I couldn’t afford to make it public. I had to move carefully, staying one step ahead without alerting whoever was betraying us. The stakes had grown too high.A small group of my closest allies had gathered in the meeting room, their expressions as grim as I felt. Luke sat to my right, his jaw set in that hard line he always wore when he was on edge.“We need to set a trap for the mole,” one of them began, his voice was low and edged with frustration. “We’re just sitting here waiting to be picked off.” he

    Chloe’s POV The moment Liam told me he was stepping down, a surge of anger overtook me. “Ungrateful,” I snapped, pacing the room. “They don’t even realize how much you’ve done for them, how much you’ve sacrificed.”Liam’s face remained calm, his gaze steady as he watched me vent. “I think it’s part of the role. I knew it would be this way when I took it on. Let them think what they want. Once Jax is dealt with, they’ll be begging me to take the position back.”“Still…” I shook my head, feeling the frustration coil tighter in my chest. “This isn’t fair to you. After all the work you’ve put in….”“Chloe.” He came closer, taking my hands in his, grounding me with his presence. “It’ll be fine. I’m stepping down, yes, but it’s temporary. They won’t get rid of me so easily. Besides, I need to focus on our family now. And on keeping you safe.”There was a finality in his words, a resolve that settled over me. I knew he’d made up his mind. His hand reached up, brushing a stray strand of hair

    Chloe’s POV With Liam gone, the walls seemed to close in around me. Every creak, every rustle outside had my heart racing. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was lurking just beyond the doors, waiting for the right moment to strike. So, I did the only thing I thought would keep us safe; I locked the doors shut and kept my children close by my side. Since Liam traveled, I have refused to step outside, scared stepping outside might endanger my life and my kids even though Lia and Lucy had tried changing my perspective it’s all failed, I don’t want to step outside knowing fully Jax and Mendy's eyes is everywhere surrounding me. Today, Lia had cones for a visit and I know the reason why she had come, but I don’t think anything can change my perspective. I’m not going to step out until the arrival of Liam. “Chloe, this isn’t healthy. You’re locking yourself and the kids in here like prisoners. This isn’t protection…it’s fear.” Lia's voice was sharp as he continued with her ba

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 37

    Chloe’s POV I sat in silence, staring blankly at the walls of my living room as the words Lia and Bryan had thrown at me swirled in my mind. Their voices overlapped in a constant loop, each one tugging at the layers of fear I’d carefully wrapped around myself. “You’re stronger than this, Chloe. Stop hiding” But it wasn’t only their voices, my insecurities gnawing away at me, making me question how I’d turned into someone so bound by fear.When did I become this person? When did I allow Jax, Mendy, and everything they represented to steal my courage? To rob me of the joy of simply living?The faces of my children flashed through my mind, their innocent smiles dimmed by the confinement I’d forced upon them. They deserved better than a mother who cowered behind locked doors. My hands clenched into fists as I realized just how much I’d let fear dictate my life. That had to end, now.I pushed myself up from the couch and went upstairs. I found my twins playing with their toys, but they

    Chapter 124. Chloe's POV. "So, you mean this is the antidote to the potion my sister used on him? How did you even know that something like this existed?" I inquired from her, inspecting the bottle from back to front. Sophia let out a soft chuckle, "of course I know because I have a background in medicine. I wouldn't really call it that because not everyone who tries their hands at many things, has an idea of what this might be, but whatever the case may be, I guess we don't have to worry our heads about anything.""Yeah, right. So what am I supposed to do with it?" I asked, trying to sniff it to see if I would understand a thing happening here, but it didn't work."You are supposed to just pour in a drop in his tea or coffee so that it works slowly. If you do this consecutively for fourteen days, this might help you to get rid of whatever has settled down in it to his subconscious." She explained to me. Sophia had been nothing short of a blessing to me because immediately I broug

    Chapter 123.Author's POV. Sophia bent behind the trees as she waited for Mendy, who had delayed coming out. Glancing at her watch, she began to hiss. How long would it take for mendy to cross over from her house to this arena? Was she hoping that she got caught by Chloe? Mendy arrived with the rustling of bushes as her boots scrunched through them. “I'm sorry for the delay. I needed to sort out a few things so that I didn't get caught. I hope that no one saw you when you were leaving.” “Can we abandon that and move to the reason we are here? I have been able to get her to trust me, what is the next step?” Sophia caught Mendy off. “You shouldn't speak to me in that manner just because you are doing me a favor. In case you have forgotten, you should be thankful that I gave you this opportunity.” “As if I am doing this for you.” Sophia thought inside of her but wouldn't dare utter those words so that she didn't sound opportunistic and make Mendy suspicious. “I apologize, I am on

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 122

    Chapter 122. Chloe's POV. Confused as hell but didn't want to sound or look like I wasn't polite, I looked away watching the person who was talking staring at me as I tried to figure out what exactly she was saying. "Do I know you?" I inquired, raising my eyebrows a little higher than necessary. "I don't think that you do but I do know you. You are Luna Chloe. One of the best people that we have ever had to grace our arena. I'm sure that a lot of people would regret ever coming against you. You are one of the sweetest people that I know."I recoiled, "okay, back up for a second." She chuckled softly before even advancing towards me, making me a little worried and wondering why this person was so bold to come closer when I had practically told them to stay away. I knew that some people were bold and would not desist unless there was a great reason for that. I had more than not expectations when it came to mingling with people "It would be nice if you introduce yourself after sa

    Chapter 121Chloe's POV. "I think that teacher Mendy is one of the best assets to this school. She has been nothing but great to the children, especially how they behave and address people nowadays." One of the parents said. I laughed at their ignorance of the truth. How would anyone in their right senses ever think that my sister was the best thing to happen to their kids? "Haven't you listened to the way your children speak? Do you think that that is the right way things should be done? If you think so, then I would have to question everything that you represent and I'm not even joking about that." I said with so much anger. "That is the basic truth. My daughter had not picked up when she started until Miss Mendy took her in and then made her life beautiful. I know that there might be some issues between both of you but it doesn't change the fact that she is one of the best teachers over here." Another parent spoke. "She has records of people who come to give her accolades. Su

    Chapter 120. Chloe's POV. Heading back home was a delight but at the same time also a problem because all I could think of in that moment was how I would be able to handle the situation perfectly without looking helter skelter or being in a dilemma Deciding to go and check up on my kids turned out to be a disheartening move, as I suddenly began to think of everything that had gone wrong. My kids deserve the best but I had not given this to them, not because I didn't want to but because I just didn't have the capacity to do so. Firstly, I encountered one of the teachers at the gate who was looking at me as though I was here on a wicked mission, this was probably the effect of my sister's methods on making everyone see me as the bad guy. "I want to see mendy." I told her, watching her bow immediately and rush off I didn't waste time going after her, passing by mendy's class I heard her teaching the kids on how to be disrespectful even if it was not as instructive as sh

    Chapter 119. Chloe's POV. "What happens if I do not have his belongings with me?" I asked, holding my breath, in case things didn't go the way I expected it to."You might have to find it at all cost because then there is a huge problem than we might want to admit. I don't think that there is anything right now, but even at that we can find a way around it. I've got some new ideas." Bryan answered instead of the lady, making me wonder why he was so particular about me finding Liam's things. I wasn't at ease with the new development and would rather just relax and watch things play out naturally, but I also wasn't going to negate the fact that he might be speaking the truth. Helping me in fact was one of the greatest things anyone could do for me and I appreciated his efforts but, I was a little bit skeptical. "I don't want us to do anything that could potentially harm Liam in the future. I just want an antidote to be found in the potion and nothing more." I reiterated, so that th

    Chapter 118.Chloe's POV. "Where are you?" Bryan spoke into the earphones I had plugged in. I bent in the bushes, avoiding contact with the patrol guards. It wasn't news that they would not stop until they were able to find out who was out of the house. Liam and I had not crossed paths since the last time we spoke despite living in the same house. Immediately I made peace with myself that he was under an influence. I no longer saw his offenses. Instead I saw him as a man who needed to be careful and that his ex was going to get him. Anyone else could be mad at the recent turn out of events but not me, I knew what I needed to do and was ready to do it nonetheless."I don't want anyone knowing that I'm meeting up with you that's why I'm hiding but as soon as I am able to push them away, trust me when I say that I would come out." I said with a small smile. I knew that I had in some way it made him a little bit happy but I needed to continue fervently. If I allowed this opportunity

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 117

    Chapter 117.Chloe's POV. Staying for my people was definitely easier said than done because why did I feel like I was missing out on a lot of information when Brian told me to stay clear. To some people, it might mean the world to them but to me, it only made me feel a little bit anxious, and also saddled with responsibility of looking over my shoulders, hoping that everything was going on right.If I had the opportunity, I wouldn't have ever dealt with them. I decided to also take laws into my hands. I needed to find out what my sister was so particular about that made her ignore the brutal signs and go for something that didn't even make any sense whatsoever. I also hated the fact that she could get away with it. Lucy's call came in almost immediately as though she had been monitoring what I was thinking of. "I know that you must probably be thinking of that your god-forsaken sister, you don't need to worry about her instead we should worry about other things." She urged me. A

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 116

    Chapter 116 Chloe’s POV Unknown: meet at location at map. Immediately. I stare down at my phone, a little startled at the message and very confused. The message came just as I am about to head to bed. A simple text with barely any words, and a simple location, that immediately disappears the moment I finished looking at it. There’s no sender, the number is hidden and unknown written in the usual robotic sans of my phone. There is no way I am supposed to find out who sent the text but somehow it just clicks. Everything from the way it was sent, to the style of the writing screams that the sender whoever it maybe didn't want to be found, or have anyone trace them. Although I know better than to guess just who they are, I couldn't help but know that this was Byrans doing. After everything he was always on alert and would never plays games, still looking at my phone with the image long gone and a simple text indicating that I have already opened the message, I contemplated whether to
