Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever

Chapter 10

Chapter 10 – I will never help Daisy

Seraphine stopped halfway up the staircase, her hand tightening around the banister as the weight of memory dragged her backward.

Daisy had grown up in her parents’ house. She had been a sickly child, fragile, pale, constantly hovering between life and death.

Each time the doctors shook their heads, it was Seraphine’s blood that saved her, again, and again.

A year older and utterly an only child, Seraphine had embraced Daisy as the younger sister she never had, filling the void left by her own solitude with loyalty and care.

But love, she had learned too late, did not guarantee trust. Her mother had doted on Daisy endlessly, smothering her with concern, indulgence, and affection, often at Seraphine’s expense.

And Daisy had been clever, deceptively so. With tearful eyes and carefully chosen silences, she painted Seraphine as cruel, impatient, heartless.

Every scratch became an accusation. Every misunderstanding, a calculated performance.

In the end, Daisy won. She claimed the sympathy of everyone, pack members, elders, even Seraphine’s own parents.

Inside her own home, Seraphine was branded ruthless, unfeeling, and dangerous. That reputation drove her straight into Kylie’s orbit and, eventually, into Ravyn’s territory.

At the time, they all lived within the Centenary Pack. Ravyn was still young then, not yet Alpha.
