All Chapters of Alpha's Regret: Omega Secretary's My Mate: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

AVERY POVWe were at the Thames. Believe it or not. The journey here was relatively smooth, although I doubted anything weird wouldn't happen in a few seconds.Judging by Julian's watchful eyes and the frown that currently formed on his face, I knew trouble was brewing.I was by the riverbank, and the Thames stretched out before me like a shimmering ribbon of silver and grey.The city's him of activity receded into the background, replaced by the gentle lapping of the water against the shore. Even though I hadn't heard much noise on our way here, I guessed it had everything to do with the barrier. As far as I could tell, the Riverside wasn't always this quiet.Tilting my head backward, I breathed in the damp air, scented with the sweet hint of river weed and the distant tang of salt.My gaze flickered upward while I parted the hair covering a side of my face. I squinted as the glare from the sun filtered into my eyes.I shivered as I stared away from the sun at the river's tranquil su

AVERY POVWe arrived at what seemed to be the heart of the cave, and oh boy, it wasn't anything like I had seen before in my life.There was a small water body in the center and a tall statue of a woman with a shawl barely covering her body. Her full, luscious breasts were on display with the nipples pointed.If it were to be a living being, I'd have said her nipples were being touched and teased, but then it wasn't. Her lower body showed her flat stomach; luckily, the shawl was lazily wrapped around her waist. But then, it at least, covered my butt and her vagina.Her ankles had anklets circling them with a variety of charms in them.Gazing up, I stared at her face. She was quickly the most beautiful thing I had ever laid my eyes on. I couldn't tell who she was, but she seemed to be an essential person.On her right hand was a torch of blazing fire, and on her left hand were snakes."That's the goddess Hecate," Julian murmured. "We seemed to be in a cave filled with witches."How'd h

AVERY POVI had never been in a maze before, but I was sure I was looking at one right now.The air was thick with the scent of worn stone, sweat, and rotten eggs.I pinched my nose as I gazed at the towering walls that loomed above me, their cold grey surfaces seeming to stretch on forever.The flickering torches that lined the passageway cast eerie silhouettes on the ground, making me question which path we were meant to take.There were three paths, and I believed only one was correct. Yet, I didn't think three of us could exactly fit into the narrow passageway at once."I do not understand this. If she wanted us to suffer, she could have done that there rather than give us hopes of helping us to get to the crystal!" Jack complained."Now, how do we know the right path to take? We are in a fucking maze!" he exclaimed."I didn't believe she was interested in helping us at all. Her message had been cryptic, and it sounded more like she'd make us wish and hope for her, but she won't h

JULIAN POVAs I jerked upright, my skull collided with something solid, and my brain belatedly registered the impact.My eyes fluttered open, and I stared into a blurry face. Familiar eyes, creased with worry, came into focus."Dude!" Jack growled, clutching his head with one hand while using another to steady me, his grip firm on my shoulder."You just fucking cracked my skull," He hissed at me, his voice laced with pain.Realization dawned on me- my head had slammed into Jack's, and the pain I felt was only just catching up, but that didn't ease my disorientation.Where were we? I could remember being in the cave with all the robots walking about, grasping the Crystal, and being flung backward by an unknown force.Avery!"Where's Avery?" I swallowed hard, glancing around. "Where is she, Jack?""Calm your balls," Jack murmured."Why isn't she here with us?" my eyes were narrowed at him. At least we had been in the cave together, and her voice had been the last I heard, but she wasn't

AVERY POVI breathed in the sweet-smelling red roses that were situated by the door side of the throne room. Raising my hand to knock at the door, I hesitated for a moment."What do I say to him again?" I asked, turning to Eileen, but she wasn't beside me.She had jilted me. "Great, Eileen, you are very much helpful." I rolled my eyes before staring at the imposing mahogany door, imagining it was my father standing before me."Father, I know I have sinned. I disobeyed your words and went against your wish to the quest. Of course, I could have died, but luckily for me, the goddess said I wouldn't be dying. So, here I am." I flashed a bright smile, blinking."No, that's weird," I grimaced.Eileen had told me to act natural. She had mentioned the possibility of him getting mad at me despite my being well. Of course, I thought I could do it and face him without fear.But then again, I didn't think I could. My father wasn't a cruel man, but sometimes, there was no way I could win against h
