Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever

Chapter 498 – Dangerous pup

Earlier that night, when Ravyn had asked to speak with Voren, the two of them had walked far away from the roaring bonfire and the loud, buzzing crowd until they reached a much quieter section of the pack grounds.

The music and laughter faded into a distant hum in the background.

Only then did Voren stop and turn to face him, his voice sounding calm on the surface even though he was barely holding back a storm of anger inside.

Every single time Ravyn looked at Seraphine, it took every ounce of control Voren had not to lose it completely.

Ravyn pressed his lips together tightly before finally speaking. "Voren... I have to be honest with you." He lowered his eyes for a moment. "I wanted to thank you for making Sera delete those videos but now, I wish you hadn’t."

A confused look crossed Voren’s face. "I don’t understand."

The truth was, he hadn’t even wanted to get involved with the videos in the first place. The only reason he had done it was because Seraphine wanted everything handled exactly that way.

Ravyn glanced around carefully to make sure no one was close enough to overhear them. "I mean..." His voice dropped lower. "Those videos would have made it easy for me to call off the coronation."

Voren’s blood instantly boiled over. Now he understood exactly what this was about.

Ravyn still wanted those recordings played in front of everyone so he could derail the whole coronation. That pathetic fantasy was never going to happen.

Even so, Voren kept his face completely unreadable. "So you’d rather have everyone keep those videos?" His eyes locked hard onto Ravyn’s. "You don’t mind humiliating the mother of your son in front of every Alpha and Luna?"
