Alpha's Regret 089
As soon as Stephanie and the children arrived, pack members and guests parted for them, all eyes turning in their direction. Alpha Damien stood near the entrance, his broad shoulders and commanding presence doing little to hide the deep emotions flickering across his face. The moment he laid eyes on his children and Stephanie, his stoic demeanor softened, and his lips curled into a small smile.Stephanie noticed the sudden shift in his expression. His smile was warm, almost vulnerable, and though she sensed the emotion in his gaze, she quickly averted her eyes, her heart beating a little faster in response. It was easier to focus on her children than to acknowledge the man who had caused her so much pain, the same man who was now blinking back tears at the sight of them.Damien cleared his throat and quickly composed himself. "Hank," he greeted, as he stepped closer to Stephanie’s father. "Thank you for coming. It means a lot to us all."Hank smiled and returned the gesture. "I woul

Stephanie felt a chill run down her spine, as her heart thudded in her chest. She was feeling restless and shifted in her seat. The hall had become silent, all eyes were fixed on Alpha Damien as he stood at the podium. She wondered what he was about to say, what he could possibly say that would make sense of the years of pain, betrayal, and loss. Her breath caught in her throat as she waited.Alpha Damien cleared his throat. "I want to apologize," he began, his tone low. "To Stephanie, to my children… and to the entire pack."Stephanie's breath hitched. Apologize? Damien never apologized. His authority had always been absolute; no explanations, no regrets. But here he was, standing before the pack, baring himself in a way she had never seen.He continued, his voice shaking slightly as he spoke. "I’ve committed sins against Stephanie—terrible ones. I believed lies about her. I falsely accused her of things she didn’t do, and in doing so, I condemned her to a life of misery. I treate

After Alpha Damien's speech, everyone made their way from the hall to the open field where the real celebration would take place. Laughter and light conversation took over as everyone marveled at the large table set up in the center of the field, overflowing with an extravagant display of food. Every kind of dish imaginable was laid out, from roasted meats to fresh salads, rich stews, and delicacies from different regions. Plates were lined up neatly, ready to be filled by hungry guests, while the meal servers stood by, ready to assist.Stephanie stood off to the side, watching the gathering with a small smile. She had seen this sort of celebration before, but after the emotionally charged speech from Alpha Damien, it all felt different. The air seemed lighter, the laughter more genuine, and for a brief moment, she allowed herself to enjoy it. Caleb and Kayla had rushed off to join the other children, their giggles mixing with the soft hum of conversation as they weaved through the ad

Stephanie’s body went rigid, the sound of the voice triggering something deep inside her. A familiar sense of dread curled in the pit of her stomach, and her heart began to race. She turned quickly, eyes searching for the source, though she already knew who it was. She could never forget that voice, no matter how much time had passed.Standing just a few feet away was Ava, her face twisted into a smirk that was far too pleased with itself. Her eyes flicked between Alpha Damien and Stephanie with a gleam that sent a chill down Stephanie's spine.Alpha Damien’s expression darkened immediately, his brows knitting together in frustration as he scowled at the woman before them. "Ava," he growled, his voice low and dangerous. "What are you doing here?"Ava’s smirk widened, her gaze settling on Damien with an almost mocking innocence. "Oh, don’t be like that, Damien. You know I never could resist a good party," she said, her tone venomous. She stepped closer, her eyes sweeping over Stephanie

Alpha Damien’s eyes followed Stephanie as she laughed softly with Caleb and Kayla, her attention entirely focused on her children. It was a rare sight, one that tugged at his heart. But he could not relish the sight as he had a pressing matter; Ava. Her sudden intrusion had unsettled him, especially Stephanie; they had been having a good conversation when she showed up and spoilt everything.He signaled to the nearest security guard with his hand, and within moments, the young man was at his side."You wanted to see me, Alpha?" the guard asked. "Who allowed Ava to come into the party?" Damien demanded, his tone was low but he was seething inside. The guard blinked in surprise, clearly taken aback by the question. "I wasn’t aware she was here, Alpha," he stammered. "No one mentioned her presence to me."Damien narrowed his eyes, his jaw tightening. "Find her," he growled. "Get more guards if you need to. I want her to be brought to me. Immediately."The guard nodded quickly, "Yes, Alp

Alpha Enzo stormed through the gates of his pack’s territory, his fists clenched tightly at his sides. His mind raced as he thought of her reckless behavior. Finally, he reached her room. Without knocking, he slammed the door open, startling the woman inside. She turned to face him with a smile, her arms outstretched as if to embrace him. But before she could reach him, he shoved her away, disgust twisting his features.She frowned, with irritation. "What’s wrong with you?" she snapped, crossing her arms. "You storm in here like a bull, and now you don’t want to hug me? Get lost, Enzo."But Enzo wasn’t having it. His anger erupted, and he grabbed her roughly by the arm, his grip strong enough to make her wince. "What the hell were you thinking?" he growled, his voice low and dangerous.She blinked in mock surprise, her eyes wide with feigned innocence. "What are you talking about?" she asked, batting her eyelashes as if she were clueless.For a brief moment, Enzo’s hand twitched, t

As soon as Hank stepped into the study, the heavy atmosphere immediately pressed down . Alpha Damien was sitting behind his large oak desk, his brow furrowed in deep thought. His tension was visible, and Hank could sense that something was wrong. Damien gestured for him to sit down, but there was a hesitancy in his eyes that Hank couldn’t ignore.Hank slowly lowered himself into the chair across from Damien, his concern growing. "Is there a problem, Damien?" Hank asked, his voice was low.Alpha Damien didn’t respond right away. He sat back in his chair, staring at a spot on the desk as if he were weighing his words. After what felt like an eternity, he let out a deep, heavy sigh, rubbing his temples as if trying to relieve some of the tension building inside him."After my morning run," Damien finally began, his voice low and measured, "I was heading back to my room when I passed by Caleb’s door. I heard him crying... really crying."Hank’s heart tightened. Caleb was a sweet boy, full

Alpha Damien sat back in his chair. "The man in the frame," he said slowly, "was Mr. King. My father, I succeeded him as Alpha when he fell ill and was no longer capable of leading the pack."Hank stared at the picture for a long moment before shaking his head in disbelief. "Mr. King was your father?" he murmured, almost to himself. He let out a long breath and looked back at Damien. "It's indeed a small world."Damien raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "You knew him?" There was a genuine note of surprise in his voice. "My father didn’t talk much about his old friends."Hank chuckled softly. "We go way back, your father and I. We were... close at one time."Damien leaned forward, his curiosity piqued. "How did you know my father?"Hank sighed, before speaking. "Through Maya," he said quietly, his eyes searching Damien’s face. "Maya... Stephanie’s mother."The moment the words left Hank’s mouth, Damien’s eyes widened in shock. He sat up straighter, trying to grasp the connection. "Maya?" he

Alpha's Regret 207
Four years had passed since Stephanie became Luna. In that time, the sorceress' Prophecy about the Eclipse pack had come to pass as the pack had not only flourished but had become the largest and most formidable pack in the entire territory. The transformation was felt in every corner of their land, and a sense of security and pride filled each member.Under Alpha Damien and Luna Stephanie’s leadership, they had found peace and prosperity. Damien’s once arrogant and foreboding feature had become warm and inclusive, embodying the unity of the moon goddess. Stephanie, who once questioned her place in the pack, was now a revered Luna, trusted and respected by all. She carried an undeniable strength, one that had seen her through some of the darkest times and now anchored her family and pack.*********On a cold morning, Damien gathered everyone in the central grounds of the pack community. Standing beside Stephanie, he addressed his pack."Today, I have wonderful news to share," Damien b

“Hey, your break’s over. We need someone clearing tables. Stop lounging around and get back to work,” he snapped, his words cutting through.Hank’s eyes widened, the shock unmistakable as he turned his look back to Cassandra. “Cassandra… you work here?”Cassandra’s shoulders slumped, her eyes dropping to her hands as shame washed over her. “Yes,” she murmured, voice barely audible. “This is my job now, Hank.”Hank’s face softened, his shock giving way to a profound sadness as he took in her worn appearance. He reached out, resting a gentle hand on her arm. “What… what happened to you, Cassandra?”Cassandra took a shaky breath, her voice filled with shame and regret as memories rushed back, memories of the choices she had made, the paths she had chosen, and the arrogance that had blinded her. “I trusted someone,” she began, voice breaking. “A younger man. He made me feel… seen again, like I mattered. But he took everything I had and left. I lost my home, my status… everything.” Her vo

Damien stood on the edge of the field overlooking the lush greenery of parts of the pack territory. He glanced around at the pack members beginning their morning routines and took a deep breath, his mind elsewhere. It was Hank's invitation that lingered in his thoughts—a trip to South Africa, a vacation that had taken on a life of its own in his mind, fueled by encouragement from Stephanie and the children.“I think you should go," Chris had told him one evening, sensing Damien's hesitation. "You've been carrying this pack for years, barely taking a moment for yourself. Let me handle things here for a little while. I owe you that much—and more."Damien had turned to his beta, touched by Chris's words. "Chris, you know since after the whole ordeal we have faced, I planned on never stepping out of the pack for years to come”Chris gave a light chuckle, patting Damien's shoulder with a brotherly confidence. "Damien, with respect, you need to go. Not only for you, but for Stephanie and t

The night had quieted down slightly as the guests had left, but the heart of the pack remained. Under the glow of the moonlight, laughter and music filled the air, while the remaining pack members continued to dance and celebrate. Stephanie and Damien stood together, watching Caleb and Kayla play with the other children, their faces glowing with happiness.Suddenly, Chris approached, his arm around Zita, both of them laughing softly. “Alpha,” Chris began. “Zita and I have been talking, and we… We'd love to exchange our vows and officially become mates tonight, with all of you here to witness it. It feels right on a night like this.”Damien’s face lit up with surprise, then softened with a deep warmth. “Chris, I can’t think of a better moment. No one deserves this more than you. You’ve stood by me, through every storm and every success. It’s an honor to have you both join as mates on this special night.”Chris nodded, visibly moved, and his hand tightened around Zita’s. “Thank you, Da
Alpha's Regret 203
As the celebration continued into the evening, the guests began forming a line to present their gifts to the new Luna. Stephanie graciously accepted each one, touched by the thoughtfulness behind every present. Her heart warmed as she saw the way her pack and loved ones had come together to make this day so memorable.Albert, Damien's former gamma and new Alpha of knight pack, presented a beautifully crafted silver pendant adorned with the Moon Goddess symbol. “To remind you of your strength and wisdom, Luna,” he said with a smile, bowing his head in respect.Stephanie took the pendant with a smile, deeply moved. “Thank you, Albert. I’ll wear it proudly,” she replied, clasping the pendant close to her heart.Jane approached next, holding a delicate painting of a moonlit forest scene. “It’s a reminder of home,” Jane said softly. “Those times you felt lost, but now you have gotten all you deserve because you are a good person.”Stephanie’s eyes shone with gratitude as she took the gift.

The night before the Luna ceremony, Stephanie lay wide awake, staring at the ceiling, her thoughts swirling with anticipation and excitement. It was hard to believe the day was finally here. She was about to step fully into the role of Luna, something that had once seemed unimaginable. Though she had faced endless trials and tribulations, she had come full circle, returning to the place where she now felt a profound sense of belonging. In the early morning hours, she heard a gentle knock at her door. “Mom?” Caleb’s voice whispered through the door.Stephanie rose and opened the door to find Caleb standing there, looking every bit as anxious as she felt. He began to speak but kept stopping, clearly struggling to find the right words.“Mom, are you… excited?” he finally asked, his voice barely more than a whisper.Stephanie placed her hands on his shoulders. “More than you can imagine,” she replied softly. “I’m nervous too, just like you.” She squeezed his shoulders reassuringly. “But

Stephanie could feel the children’s excitement building as they made their way through the heart of the pack’s community toward Alicia's shop. Though she had initially considered using a human seamstress, she felt a sense of ease in choosing Alicia, a decision that felt more meaningful now. Alicia was not only an incredible seamstress but also a woman who deeply understood the werewolf world and its sacred ceremonies. Stephanie knew that Alicia’s designs would capture the spirit and traditions of the pack, honoring the connection to the Moon Goddess.When they arrived, Alicia’s shop was warm and inviting, filled with bolts of fabric in rich colors and textures that seemed to glow under the sunlight streaming through the windows. Stephanie took in the scene, feeling a surge of pride for her pack and their traditions.The door swung open, and Alicia looked up, her face breaking into a broad smile when she saw them. “Stephanie!” she exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine delight. “And

As they settled down for breakfast, the atmosphere was light with laughter and the occasional clink of silverware. The events of the past few days felt distant, overshadowed by the warmth of family and the security of home. The children chattered excitedly about their favorite dishes, as Stephanie and Damien exchanged glances, each silently grateful for the peace they now had.Just then, Chris and Zita walked in, both of them beaming, a radiance about them that instantly caught Stephanie’s attention. “Hey! Look who’s finally joining us!” she called out with a welcoming grin."Couldn't resist the smell of breakfast, could you?" Damien added, chuckling as he pulled out chairs for them. Chris laughed, nodding his thanks as he and Zita took their seats at the table, the children greeting them with enthusiastic waves and giggles.“We thought we’d pop in to see everyone before the day fully got underway,” Chris said, giving a warm smile around the table. “But truthfully, Zita and I have som

Stephanie stirred, blinking sleepily as the trauma of the previous night’s ordeal washed over her. She glanced beside her to see Damien, Kayla, and Caleb, all nestled close together, their faces peaceful in sleep. The children had insisted on sleeping with them that night, clinging to the safety and warmth they found between them after the terrifying events they'd endured. Stephanie had found no reason to say no; in fact, their closeness had provided her with a rare sense of calm.Taking a deep breath, Stephanie gently placed her hand on Damien’s shoulder, whispering his name as she brushed back the strands of hair that had fallen across his face. "Damien," she murmured softly, her voice barely audible. He blinked awake, his gaze meeting hers, still clouded with sleep. Slowly, she woke the children too, brushing a soft kiss over each of their foreheads. Kayla’s eyes fluttered open first, followed by Caleb’s, both of them stretching and yawning.A heaviness lay on her heart, an ache t
