Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance Book 2 chapter 1
Chapter 1Chloe’s POV I couldn’t help but smile as the chorus of voices sang “Happy Birthday,” filling our cozy living room with warmth. Balloons and streamers in bright reds, blues, and yellows danced along the ceiling as our friends and family gathered around, celebrating my twins’ sixth birthday. Six years—it felt surreal, almost like it had happened in a blink.“Make a wish, sweethearts!” I encouraged, watching as my twins squeezed their eyes shut, each undoubtedly making a wish with all the fierce concentration only children seem to manage. Then they blew out their candles in a synchronized puff, their laughter ringing out as cheers erupted around them.I stared around, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar faces that gathered to celebrate the special day with us, my eyes suddenly spotted Lia across the room, rocking her little one on her hip while chatting animatedly with one of our guests. Her eyes met mine, and I couldn’t help but laugh, playfully I stride toward her and I

Chapter 2 Chloe’s POV The door swung open, and my breath caught in my throat. Standing before me was Mendy, her lips curled into a predatory smile, eyes glinting with that familiar edge of malice that I thought I’d left in the past. I hadn’t seen her in years—not since the trial, not since the conviction that should have meant she’d stay locked away. Yet here she was, larger than life, bringing with her a chill that cut right through the warm, joyful haze of the birthday party. “Chloe? Who’s at the door?” I heard Liam’s voice jolting me awake from my long thought, and I strived to reply but my tongue felt glued to the roof of my mouth. When I finally gained my voice and plan to answer, Mendy brushed past me, slipping through the doorway as if it were her own home. She strutted into the room as if she belonged there, her gaze scanning the faces of my friends and family as if she were a hunter sizing up her prey. “Well, well, isn’t this a sweet little gathering,” she cooed, her

Book 2 Chapter 3Liam’s POV Chloe’s scream cut through the house, sharp and desperate, tearing me from the hallway where I’d been pacing, trying to process the events of the last few minutes. The party had turned into a nightmare in a heartbeat, Mendy’s presence unraveling everything we’d built. Without a second thought, I rushed toward Chloe, barely registering the concerned looks from friends and family as I pushed through the crowd to find her.She was on the floor, her knees pulled to her chest, clutching our twins so close that they squirmed against her grip. Her face was pale, and her breathing was shallow, frantic. I knelt down beside her, my hands hovering uncertainly, desperate to touch her. “Chloe,” I whispered, steadying my voice. “Did she hurt you? Did Mendy do anything?”Chloe shook her head, but her wide, glassy eyes didn’t meet mine. Her hands gripped the kids even tighter, her body trembling as if just the sight of her sister had shattered her. “Liam, she’s here fo

Book 2 Chapter 4Liam’s POV Something gnawed at me. The people I’d been speaking to were acting strange, too quick to brush me off like I was just another angry guy on the phone. The more I pressed, the more evasive they became, stammering excuses that did nothing but stoke my frustration. I should have had answers by now—hell, I should have been the first to know. As Alpha, they owed me that much. But instead, every door I knocked on slammed shut, leaving me with nothing but more questions.I tried to shake it off, telling myself this was just standard red tape, that some fool somewhere had screwed up and let Mendy slip through the cracks. It was bureaucracy, plain and simple. If there was one thing I knew, it was how badly the system could bungle things. But Chloe’s face, pale and scared, wouldn’t leave my mind. I could still hear her frantic whispers, her fear for our kids, her insistence that Mendy was back for revenge. I could tell her that everything would be fine until I was

Book 2 Chapter 5Liam’s POV I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Jax—of all people—had a hand in Mendy’s release? It didn’t make any sense. I leaned back in my chair, trying to piece it together, but no matter how I looked at it, I kept hitting a wall. After everything that had happened, after the chaos Mendy had caused, her freedom felt like a slap in the face. And now, knowing that Jax might be the one behind it… it was enough to make my blood boil.It had only been a few days since the incident with Mendy, but Chloe was still uneasy. I could see it in her eyes, the way she tensed up every time her phone buzzed, or whenever someone mentioned Mendy’s name. She thought I hadn’t noticed, but I knew her too well. I knew the worry that gnawed at her, even if she tried to hide it. She thought she was protecting me, keeping it all in—but in reality, she didn’t have to. If anything, I needed to be the one protecting her.When Thorne, first brought up Jax’s name, I almost laughed. The i

Book 2 Chapter 6Chloe’s POV As soon as Liam and the investigator stepped out of his office, I moved to block their path. My heart was pounding, I couldn’t keep waiting in the dark. “What did you find out?” I demanded, crossing my arms as I looked between the two of them.Liam tried to brush me off, his usual calm demeanor in place. “Chloe, take a breath. We haven’t found out much yet.” He explained but I know him too well, he can't lie to me unless I want to play along. But now I’m not going to buy his lies. “What do you mean, ‘not much’? You’re hiding something. I can tell.”The investigator, exchanged a look with Liam, a silent agreement passing between them before he mumbled a quick goodbye and walked away. As he passed, I caught sight of Liam leaning in, whispering something under his breath that I couldn’t make out. My patience snapped.“What was that?” I asked, my voice sharp as I turned to Liam. “What were you whispering to him about?”He hesitated, just for a second, befo

Book 2 Chapter 7Liam’s POV My eyes glued on a spaced, my mind reeled with the thought of Mendy and Jax, how dangerous my family can be with their presence. I’d have loved to keep Chloe unaware of all this but she’s too persistent to let go. She hadn’t learned about Mendy being Jax’s Luna what if she did? Her worry would be multiple feelings I don’t like seeing. “So, how’s Chloe holding up?” Luke’s voice broke through my thoughts as he looked over at me, a hint of worry in his eyes.I let out a sigh, running a hand over my face. “She’s… coping, but there’s this constant edge to her. She’s a little paranoid, to be honest. And I don’t blame her.” I glanced out the window, where the sun was starting to dip below the horizon. “After everything she’s been through with Jax and Mendy, I can’t blame her for not feeling safe.”Luke nodded, his expression darkening as he took in my words. “Yeah, it’s a lot to handle. Jax was bad enough, but now Mendy’s back, and apparently, she’s even more d

Book 2Chapter 8 Liam’s POV I sat down in my office, my ears open wide as I conversed with Luke about the security in the pack. Going over the latest on pack security. We’d been working non-stop since the threat of Jax and Mendy loomed larger. Despite their rocky history and Mendy’s twisted ways, she was now mated to Jax and, by extension, had his loyalty. That was a problem, especially now that Jax’s pack was stronger than ever, apparently revived by someone’s influence. Someone who’s still in the shadow cause I know very well that after what I did to Jax he can’t restrict himself. Luke, nodded thoughtfully as I updated him on the latest precautions. “I get it, My Alpha,” he said, leaning forward to take a look at the drawing map at hand. “But I think we’re in a good place now. Security’s tighter than ever, and if anything goes sideways, we’ll be the first to know. Our scouts have increased rotations along the borders, and the trackers have been trained to pick up any unusual s

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

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

Chapter 115.Author's POV. Mendy walked towards the shore, hoping that she would meet up with her ally, James. This was supposed to solidify whatever they had going on. James appeared at the edge of the shore with annoyance in full force. Remembering Scott's words, he decided to play along. If he acted weirdly, she was going to figure out that he was no longer interested in the deal. "Hey, sorry I'm late.""You have every right to be sorry because now you are wasting my time that I should have used on something more important. How do you even expect me to deal with that?"The question was direct, accusations sparking up as she pointed in his face. "I have no time for people who do not consider this a very important duty to fulfill. I have a job and I need it to be done ASAP. You are the only person that came to mind.""As if." James snorted, masking it with a cough. "I mean it's great but at the same time I have got to chip in something.""Oh, really? What exactly is it?""Don't

I would never understand her obsession with making sure that my life was ruined by making my children feel like they could enjoy love from somebody who didn't bloody care about them. I descended the stairs, trying to strike a conversation with them at all costs.Aria and Asher gazed at me with a little frown. "Hi, Mom, what's wrong?" Aria asked immediately she set eyes on me, looking confused to see me. I raised my eyebrows, watching them also in shock. "I didn't know that I was supposed to be absent. Is there a reason why you are surprised that my presence? Did someone tell you that I wasn't going to be around?" I challenged them immediately. I wasn't going to tolerate any form of disrespect from them anymore but at the same time didn't want to push them completely away. This could be a

Chapter 113.Chloe's POV. "Well how did he take it?" Lucy asked immediately after I told her the news."Better than I thought but the only issue is sometimes I wonder why he acts erratically. I can almost not predict his next move and that is not great."This was just a trap to make Liam the little bit distracted while I was able to pin the offense on Mendy.I remembered that this was just a momentary distraction and the best way to deal with this was to ensure that there was absolutely enough holding me back. "I don't know what to do when he finds out that it was all a lie. I want to use this to draw him closer if that 's even possible. I sometimes find it hard to comprehend his latest character and I'm not even kidding." I confessed to her.If I wasn't careful I would be running mad and that was not even a joke.
