My Alpha’s Remorse Came Too Late
"Aeris, your life is reaching its end. You only have one more year to live at most."
I, Aeris Brown, feel devastated at this news. Clinging to one last shred of hope, I call my mate, Caius Everett. However, I find out he is keeping his first love, Freya Brooks, company at the moment.
"Cai, it's our son's turn to go for the checkup," says Freya.
On the very day that I am diagnosed with a terminal illness, he is accompanying Freya and her pup for a body checkup.
I freeze on the spot. Besides myself, no one else remembers that Caius and I once had a pup too. But due to an accident, I miscarried her.
At that moment, I finally decide to let go.
But when I want to sever our mate bond and leave Caius, he clenches my chin and warns, "Aeris, you need to atone for what you and your dad owe me. I won't allow you to leave me."
When the day of my eternal departure arrives, Caius loses his mind after hearing about my death. He kneels on the floor and repeatedly begs for me to come back.
