Alpha's Regret After the Divorce by Christina novel Chapter 206

I sat at the edge of my father’s hospital bed, watching him adjust himself against the pillows. The room was dim with only the bedside lamp casting a weak glow, creating shadows across his gaunt face. His expression was somber, his eyes carrying a weight I couldn’t quite

name.

My stomach tightened as I waited. After years of questions, I was finally going to hear the truth about Lyra.

“Several years ago, my father began, his voice low and raspy, “I received an anonymous letter.”

His gaze turned distant, as if looking through time rather than at me. “It described a young werewolf girl being mistreated. As an Alpha, when I receive information like this, I have a responsibility to investigate.”

I nodded, trying to ignore the rapid beating of my heart.

“After some searching, I found her in a rundown apartment at the edge of the city,” he continued, pausing to take a labored breath. “She called herself ‘Jane,‘ refused to give a last name or talk about her past. She said she had fled werewolf society because her mother abused her, and her family turned a blind eye.”

Dad’s voice softened. “The first time I saw Jane, she was covered in scars, but her eyes were defiant. In human society, she was equally

rejected and hurt. Homeless. Alone.”

“This Jane…” I asked softly, though I already knew the answer, “Did you know who she was from the beginning?”

Dad shook his head. “No. She was cautious, never speaking of her past or family. She only referred to herself as a ‘wolf without a pack.“”

“Then how did you eventually discover she was Lyra Blackwood?” My voice sounded steadier than I felt.

Dad’s expression grew complicated, pain flashing across his features. “That came much later… after our relationship had become… deeper.”

My stomach clenched, but I forced myself to remain calm. “What happened, Dad?”

“I helped her,” he continued. “Provided shelter, medical care, educational opportunities. At first, she was extremely wary, but gradually, she began to open up to me, sharing her painful experiences.”

I could picture it–a wounded girl finally finding safety, finding someone willing to listen. I felt proud of my father’s kindness, but simultaneously, an unsettling premonition grew inside me.

“As time passed, Jane developed feelings for me beyond ordinary gratitude.” Dad lowered his gaze to the sheets. “I’m not proud of this relationship, but at the time…”

I gently squeezed his hand. “Dad, I understand. You were alone for so long after Mom left.”

“I thought we could help each other heal.” He gave a bitter smile. “We spent some good times together in human society.”

I noticed how carefully he described the relationship, reflecting both on himself and respecting me as his daughter. I appreciated his honesty, but worried more about where this story was heading.

Chapter 206

“What happened then?” I asked tentatively.

:

Dad’s expression darkened. “Everything changed when it came to medicine…”

He described how he funded Jane’s medical studies, how she showed extraordinary talent, excelled academically, with a promising future. “But Jane wasn’t satisfied with just helping humans. She became deeply interested in werewolf medicine. Initially, I supported her research, thinking it might help many werewolves. She acquired some ancient werewolf medical texts and immersed herself in them day and night.

My heart grew heavier as I began to foresee where this story was heading. “And then?”

“One time, Dad’s voice trembled slightly, “I accidentally found a photograph among Jane’s personal belongings. A Blackwood family photo.”

I was slowly understanding the whole picture. This is why Rocco thinks Dad did something to Lyra? Because he doesn’t know the full truth?
