Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 127: This isn’t right
Gerard POVThe scent of antiseptic enters my senses. I feel uncomfortable. I open my eyes, and I’m in a hospital room. The lights are dim. I feel exhausted. What happened to me?I try to sit up, but the room starts spinning. I lay back down and groan. Some people think that feeling dizzy isn't bad and that they can just shake it off. They should try it sometime. I’m lying down and keeping my eyes closed, and I still feel the room spinning around me.The door to my room opens, and I hear the soft footprints of a woman. I’m not sure who, though. Terk isn’t moving around, and I feel vulnerable right now.I felt a soft hand running through my hair. So does the scent. It also feels wrong. I don’t understand what is happening.I shot my hand in the air and grabbed that soft hand, feeling electric shocks through my own hand. “Who are you?” I asked, slowly opening my eyes.When I do, I see a young woman. She’s a redhead, with clear eyes and pale skin. She looks tired, and her eyes are red, li
Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 126: My Decision
Silja POVI walked out of the emergency room and into the waiting room. Romy, Erik, and Nolan all stand up and look at me expectantly. But I’m numb. How did this happen? Trina wasn’t at the restaurant. She wasn’t close to Gerard and didn’t have contact with him inside the courthouse.Now, the memories Ged and I have made in almost a year’s time have her replacing me in his memory. Our first time in my apartment, the way he would cook for me, seeing Lennox via the ultrasound, the Luna Ceremony, our one-night stand, everything is being replaced with Trina. How? That’s what I don’t understand. I get that it’s a dark magic potion, but how did she get to him?“Silja?” Nolan called gently, bringing me back to reality.I looked at Romy, and her eyes were full of tears. She can sense I’m numb and in pain at the same time. I lose my battle with tears, and Romy hugs me.“Silja, whatever it is, it will be okay. I promise. What’s wrong with Gerard?” she asked.I looked up, fat, ugly, tears slidin
Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 125: A Shift
Silja POV“Ged!” I screamed.The guards help him inside the truck, and his skin is cold. He is not responsive.“Get us to the hospital, NOW!” I ordered.“Yes, Luna.”We took off, and I’m holding Ged’s head in my lap. Romy is looking at us, and she is quiet, but I know she is nervous.“Call Erik. Tell him what happened to Gerard, and we are on our way to the hospital,” I said.Romy snaps out of it and grabs her phone.“Erik,” she says with her voice shaking, “We are on our way to the hospital. We won the case and went to eat. Then, when we were getting into the SUV, Gerard passed out. He isn’t responsive, and he looks pale. Silja ordered the guard to take us to the hospital.”There was a pause, and then she said, “Yes. That’s where we are going.”Another pause as Erik said something else to her, and she responded. “Okay.”They hang up, and she looks at me. “Erik is coming to the hospital. Nolan is going to stay behind an extra day before going to Jaul. Nolan will call him to explain eve
Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 124: Unexpected
Gerard POVI walked with Silja towards the bathroom. On the way, we were discussing where we would go for lunch.“I could really go for some Hibachi!” she said excitedly.“You and your Asian food,” I chuckled.Romy and Silja both looked at me like I wasn’t seeing the obvious. “Sils could eat her weight in Asian food, Mr. Sinnett.”I laughed. “You are right about that. Am I ordering Shumai?”Silja smiled. “Damn right, you are. Shumai and a Singapore Sling!”I shook my head, smiling. She is very happy, and I am glad. Having this defamation case behind us is a great step. As we approached the bathroom, I saw Trina’s mother outside.“Let’s get out of here, Silja. If Trina’s mother is standing outside, then Trina is in there. I don’t want you alone with her.”She and Romy both stopped smiling. Romy grabbed Sils' free hand, and we turned around to leave. As we are walking away, I hear Mrs. Mayer call my name.“Ignore her, Ged. Nothing good will come from talking to her,” Silja said, and hone
Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 123: Hearing
Silja POVThe uneasy feeling I’m getting from Trina is only growing the longer we sit here waiting for the judge to come in. Romy notices and whispers in my ear, “Biatch, don’t get yourself worked up. This could be a tactic.”I took a deep breath. “I know you are right, but something feels off, Romy.”“Breathe, Sils. Remember, you answer only what you are asked. Do not elaborate more than needed.”Finally, the judge comes in, and we all stand.“Be seated,” the judge said.“This case is Sinnett v Mayer. Defamation,” the bailiff said as he handed the folder to the judge.He turned to Romy and me and asked us to explain the alleged defamation. Romy went on to explain that Trina publicly claimed I didn’t deliver the desired product, which ruined my reputation and cost me my job. She said it caused irreparable damage to my career and blacklisted me from the industry unjustly.“Do you have any proof to show the desired product was delivered and accepted?” The judge asked.Out of the corner o
Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 122: Courthouse
Silja POV“You are not going by yourself, Sils,” Gerard said with finality.“Gerard, the Luna Guard will be with me, and so will my beta female. She’s my attorney after all.”“No. I’m coming with you. I don’t know what kind of stunt Trina is going to play. I haven’t forgotten what Larken said.”Larken did say she was planning something. “I don’t think she would try something in the courthouse, Gerard.”“I won’t take any chances. She could try something before or after the hearing. She could have something set up outside. I’m not risking your safety, Silja. I’m coming with you.”I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck, conceding. “Okay. Then we'd better get going in the next hour.”I kissed him gently, and then he deepened the kiss. When he pulls away, he looks me in the eyes. “I want her, her scheming, and anything else she is plotting behind us, Silja. My dream hasn’t changed, and I am nervous that you are going to leave me and take our son with you. It will break me, Sils. You a

Gerard POVI know Jaul stepped in to challenge Larken, and I’m not stopping him. The only thing on my mind is Silja and our son. Larken threw her, and I didn’t react quickly enough. I feel like a fucking failure.When the doctor moved her to the room, I wanted to go there and be with her, but I was

Alpha's Picture of Regret Chapter 102: That Fucker
Larken POVThat motherfucker just took what’s mine from me. If I hadn’t left them alone. If I’d noticed his initial reaction to her, I would have had the upper hand. But now, I lost her and my leverage over here.I had to leave, though. Trina was calling and said it was urgent. When she said she rec

Irina POVThe moment I saw him standing there, my breathing stopped. I didn’t mean to drop the tray; I was just startled. My mate. He is my mate. He is handsome and definitely an Alpha.Larken, of course, is furious with me for causing a commotion. I’m currently a maid and a bed warmer for him. I di
