Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever

Chapter 442: Don’t join the campfire, okay?

Voren smiled wide as his eyes slowly drifted around the fancy hotel suite, taking everything in.

Man, this place in the Outlands was the best they had, and it showed in every little detail.

The walls, the ceiling, the furniture, even the tiniest decorations, all of it was made from gorgeous natural wood from all different kinds of trees.

The whole room smelled warm and fresh, like you were standing right in the middle of a peaceful forest, and it wrapped around you in the most comforting way possible.

It felt worlds away from those cold, sleek modern buildings back in New York. A soft smile stayed glued to his lips as another happy thought popped into his head.

"I think we can totally give them that reward once Ravyn’s finally taken down," he said, his eyes locking onto Seraphine’s with pure warmth.

"Do you remember that waterfall out here in the Outlands?"

She gave him a little nod, her own smile starting to form.

"There’s this cute little cabin right nearby." His grin stretched even bigger, full of excitement. "I’ll make sure it’s all set up and ready for them."

Before Seraphine could even get a word out, Marsha was straight-up squealing with joy inside her head.’That’s exactly why I love him so much!’

Seraphine couldn’t help shaking her head, half-amused and half-exasperated. Sometimes her wolf got just as dramatically over-the-top as Voren did.

Voren caught the look on her face and let out a deep, warm chuckle. "Come on, babe." He reached out and took her hand gently. "Let’s hop in the shower together and then get some real rest. Tomorrow’s gonna be an absolute whirlwind."

His voice was so soft and caring it made her heart flutter. Seraphine’s eyes went wide for a second as her brain immediately took that innocent invitation and ran wild with it in a very steamy direction.
