Bad Love An Alpha’s Regret

Chapter 317

I barely sleep the rest of the night.

The next morning, Axel unlocks the door carly, but I don’t immediately get out of bed.

I’m not sure if I have the energy or will to face the day.

I wonder what Axel will do if I turn the tables on him and refuse to leave my bedroom, so whether he locks the door or not becomes pointless.

Around mid–morning, there’s a knock on the door.

I don’t answer, even though I doubt it’s Axel.

He wouldn’t knock. He would just barge right in.

The door swings open a few seconds later and Jessica walks in, carrying a tray with what looks like breakfast on it.

“Good morning,” she says in a soft voice, sending me a hesitant smile, as if unsure of her welcome.

Oh great, now even Jessica is tiptoeing around me.

“Does the entire pack know I’m a nutjob who needs to be locked up in her room?” I ask, pulling a blanket over my head.

I hear the sounds of Jessica setting the tray onto the nightstand next to my bed, then a second later the mattress dips and Jessica tugs the blankets away from my face.
