All Chapters of Alpha's Regret, Begging My Convict Luna Back: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Nathan's POVAria shot me a cold and unreadable glare. I was about to answer her question, to tell her I didn't even know Sophia was here and that I was just as surprised as she was, but she lifted Lana into her arms and walked straight to her bedroom.The slam of the door echoed through the villa like a slap to my face.My wolf bristled.She’s angry… And she has every right to be.Still, the sting remained.I exhaled slowly. The noise of the door closing jolted Sophia awake.She blinked, rubbing her eyes like a startled pup, then practically bounced off the couch when she saw me.“Nathan! You’re back!” She looked relieved. Then her voice took on a whiny softness. “I waited so long. Where did you go?”Her gaze flicked toward Aria’s door, a growl rolled silently in my chest.My temples throbbed. “Who let you in?”She froze. That definitely wasn’t the greeting she expected.“I–I couldn’t find you and got anxious, so I asked the guard—”“I’ll replace the night staff,” I cut in sharply.H

Aria's POVThe man clenched his jaw, refusing to speak.Beside me, Francis’ gentleman façade was gone. Completely gone. In its place was a lethal, territorial wolf whose eyes promised more violence.His gripped the man's throat and lifted him up with wolf strength The man, big as he was, turned red, choking, his arms and legs twitching.I watched, my breath steady, as the man refused to answer.Then Francis’s eyes flicked to mine as if asking me what I wanted him to do to the man.The stepped forward and asked the man another question, “What’s your connection to that driver from yesterday ago?” I demanded, my voice low, edged with a growl I could no longer hide.The man blinked rapidly. “What are you talking about?”He tried to mask it, but I caught it, the sharp spike of adrenaline, the evasive flicker of his eyes.He was lying…He was afraid.A cold laugh slipped from my lips. “Still coming after me? Whoever wants me dead must have paid you well.” I stepped closer, letting my aura un

Nathan's POVHer gaze didn’t waver. It was calm and transparent. My wolf bristled, sniffing her scent, a hint of Francis’s cologne lingering on her sleeve. It tugged at something territorial in me.“Remember your status, Luna Aria,” I said, my voice colder than I intended.She stood slowly, Lana in her arms, and met my eyes. “Then Alpha Nathan should remember his.”Her words hit harder than expected. It was sharp and sarcastic, but not hateful. Not the way it used to be.She walked away, her simple silk dress tracing the elegant lines of her body. Lana peeked over her shoulder, her bright eyes sparkling as she smiled at me. My gaze followed until the door shut behind them.The thought hit me out of nowhere.Is Lana really not mine?I frowned. Earlier today, when I’d returned home unexpectedly, the nanny had been trying to soothe a hungry, crying Lana. The moment she saw me, she’d stopped crying. She eached out, tears still on her cheeks.I should’ve handed her back, I should’ve walked

Aria's POVI listened to Alpha Jonathan speak and I was absolutely confused. I had not expected him to be as polite and cordial as he was.He spoke as though everything that happened was Williams’ fault when it had entirely been my fault. All Williams did was grant my request and borrow me a custom cloth that had not been released yet.Alpha Jonathan went ahead to apologize on behalf of his brand when I should be the one doing that. I found that quite strange but chalked it up to good manners and etiquette.Still, I cleared my throat and answered honestly, forcing my mind back to the issue at hand.“Alpha Jonathan, I specifically requested the custom-made dress from Celestyr brand. It wasn’t released yet, so the buzz was unavoidable. I should apologize, my actions dragged your brand into this.”He responded in that deep, calm and magnetic voice that felt like waves hiding the strength of an unseen tide.“No worries, Aria.”There was something indulgent in his tone, something that felt

Aria's POVIt was a call from Collins.His urgent voice spilled out, “Alpha Nathan!, Ms. Sophia Darvin was on the way to donate to an orphanage. Her assistant says she got into a car accident coming down the mountain. She’s being taken to the hospital…she keeps calling for you.”Nathan’s entire body tensed. Even his scent sharpened with worry.“Where? Hemsworth Group Private Hospital?” he asked.“Yes.”My sharp ears caught every word of their conversation.Of course.Sophia calls, and Nathan runs.It wasn’t even a choice.I turned my face away, swallowing the bitterness that rose in my throat like bile. My expression stayed cool and blank, like ice over open wounds.Nathan glanced at me, discomfort flickering in his eyes, but he crushed it beneath duty.“Collins is right behind us. He’ll take you back to Hemsworth Group. No one will dare trouble you with him there.”His tone was firm and reassuring.But to me? To me it felt like rejection smoothed over with formality.My wolf curled h
