Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever

Chapter 291

Chapter 291 - Can you kiss me again?

Voren pulled the phone away from his ear after a minute.

"A spell?" The word came out flat, like he was testing whether saying it out loud would make it sound less insane. It didn’t. If anything, it sounded even crazier hanging in the air between them. "How is that even possible?"

He stood there another long second, clearly working through it all behind those dark eyes of his.

You could almost see the gears turning, trying to fit this new piece into a puzzle he thought he already understood.

Then something settled in him, not peace exactly, but more like a solid decision clicking into place. He lowered the phone to his side and walked straight toward Seraphine.

He stopped close. Close enough that she had to tilt her chin up a little just to keep holding his gaze.

Voren’s eyes moved over her face slowly, not with that usual sharp, measuring look he gave everyone else, but something rawer.

Guilt sat there. Confusion too. Both of them right on the surface where she could actually see them for once.

"Sera." His voice dropped low, almost rough around the edges. "Do you trust me?"

She didn’t hesitate, and that surprised her a little. The answer came out steady. "Yes."

Something flickered across his expression, just barely, just enough to notice. He gave one slow nod, like he was letting that sink in.

"Do you want to remember?"

"Yes." That one came out even faster, more feeling behind it than she’d meant to let show. It surprised her how badly she did want it, how much the hole in her head suddenly felt unbearable.
