Alpha's Regret After Her Rebirth (Hannah and Noah) novel Chapter 288

Chapter 0288 

Hannah 

I woke up early the next morning, fully intending to slip away to my appointment without Noah. I showered and dressed quickly, my hands shaking slightly as I grabbed my car keys. As I crept down the hallway, I listened for any sign of Noah, but the house was blissfully silent. 

Good, I thought as I quietly made my way outside. He was still asleep, which meant that I’d be able to leave without him. That would teach him to try to control my life. This appointment was for me and my baby, not for him. 

And then, when it was all said and done, I would find a way to escape with my baby. To hell with staying married to him, stuck in this loveless marriage. I didn’t care if it caused a war between Nightcrest and Silvermoon, I was going home, where I belonged. 

My heart pounded as I quickly bolted down the path, where my car was waiting. Opening the car door as quietly as I could, I started the engine and began to pull out of the driveway. Every crunch of the gravel under the tires left me tense, wondering if he could hear me from inside the house. Freedom was so close I could taste it. 

But just as I was about to turn onto the main road, a large silver wolf leaped in front of my car, its lone growl echoing through the quiet morning air. 

Gasping, I slammed on the brakes, the car screeching to a halt mere inches from the tip of Noah’s snout. “Fuck!” I cursed, slamming my palms so hard against the steering wheel that it sent a wave of pain up my 

arms. 

Noah shifted back to his human form, not bothering to hide the annoyance on his face as he strode to the driver’s side door. He yanked it open, his eyes blazing with anger. 

“Get out,” he growled. “Now.” 

I glared at him but complied, knowing that there was no point in arguing. “Pig.” I spat as I forcefully unbuckled my seatbelt and climbed out of the car. 

Noah merely stared at me, not saying a word as I stomped around to the passenger side. Only once I was buckled into my seat did he finally climb in and put the car in drive, as though I would try to make a break for it across the lawn. 

And honestly, for a moment, I almost did. But his legs were far longer than mine, and I knew he could easily outrun me. 

The entire drive to the appointment was tense and silent. I folded my arms across my chest and stared out the window, refusing to look at him. 

“You shouldn’t have tried to run like that,” Noah said, breaking the silence. 

I scoffed. “What did you expect? That I’d just sit around and wait for you like a good little prisoner?” 

Noah’s jaw clenched, his knuckles tightening around the steering wheel. “You’re not a prisoner, Hannah. You’re my wife, and you’re carrying our child.” 

“I 

“And yet I’m trapped with you,” I muttered viciously. Noah opened his mouth, likely to bite out a retort, but
