Bad Love: An Alpha's Regret (Leah and Aaron) novel Chapter 264

Chapter 264 

My words seem to shock James out of his stupor somewhat. 

“Emily!” he says in disbelief. 

Emily–whoever the hell she is–jumps down the last few steps and rushes to cross the distance between them, throwing herself into his waiting arms. 

“James! Oh my god!” 

She’s crying and even James’s eyes look suspiciously damp as he blinks rapidly while holding the woman tight against him. 

“Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on here?” 

I demand, feeling a little bad that I’m intruding on what is 

obviously a tender reunion. 

James finally lets Emily go and she steps back, looking at me 

with curiosity and confusion. 

“Leah, this is Emily Rathborn.” 

It takes a second for that to sink in. 

“Rathborn?” I repeat in confusion. 

“Aaron’s sister,” James says in awe and wonder, like he still can’t believe she’s here, even though she’s standing right in 

front of him. 

“Aaron’s sister…” I repeat, and I know I sound dumb, but my brain is just refusing to put these pieces together. “Aaron’s 

sister who was killed by my father during the war? The 

same reason why the Rathborn pack brutally retaliated and slaughtered my mother, leading to me being sent to live with Aaron as a sacrificial peace offering?” 

Emily’s eyes suddenly narrow. 

“Are you Alpha Robert’s daughter?” she demands furiously. 

I feel like admitting to it isn’t going to end well, but it’s not like I can deny the fact. 

“What about it?” I demand, tilting my chin up. 

Emily doesn’t answer. 

Her eyes glow with her wolf, and next thing I know, she’s sprung at me, claws and fangs ready to rip me to shreds. 

Unfortunately for Emily, she either doesn’t realize or doesn’t 

care that I’m an Alpha. 

I’m faster and stronger than her. 

I easily dodge her attack and turn the tables, grabbing her before she can swing around to attack me again and pin her against the nearby wall, twisting her arm up behind her so she can’t move. 

“Leah, don’t hurt her!” James says quickly. 

“Get off me, you bitch!” Emily snarls, fighting against my hold, even though it must be painful. 

“That’s Luna Bitch to you,” I tell Emily, growling the words low 

in her ear. “You’ve got two choices. You either bow to me and 

accept me as Rathborn and Roberts pack Luna, or I leave you 

locked up here to think about it for another decade.” 

She struggles for another second, but quickly works out it’s 

futile. She can’t match my Alpha strength. 

“Fine!” she snaps, finally giving up the fight. “I can accept 

you’re Luna of our pack, but I will never respect you and I sure 

as hell won’t bow to you.” 

It’s better than nothing. 

I can’t really blame her for hating me since my father has held 

her captive here for so many years. I’d probably feel the same 

if I was in her shoes. 

I just need to know she’s not going to try to rip my throat out the second my guard is down. 

“Try anything like that again, and you’ll be banished instead of reunited with the pack. Do I make myself clear?”
