Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever

A bitter, angry laugh ripped out of Voren, low and rough, but it carried so much fury that everyone in the room instantly tensed up.

Seraphine, still curled on his lap, felt every single muscle in his body go rock-hard beneath her. His arms stayed wrapped tight around her waist, but his chest heaved up and down as he battled like hell to keep his emotions from exploding.

Olivia flinched hard, her eyes flooding with fresh tears. "You don’t understand what I went through—"
