Alpha's Regret: Claiming My Stolen Twins novel Chapter 83

83 Chapter 83 Visions of Horror

The brightness dimmed. The woods transformed into something sinister, shadows creeping forward like grasping fingers. A silhouette emerged at the forest’s edge, draped in gathering darkness. Recognition hit me like ice water, terror coiling tight in my belly.

“Seraphina,” he growled, voice dropping to something dangerous and primal. “Give me his name.”

Unfortunately, his identity wasn’t the only secret I’d been keeping, and I knew everything was about to get much worse.

Humiliation burned through me, searing and sharp, mixing with my lingering fear. I jerked away from Julian, staggered several steps, then retched violently onto the moist forest floor. The acidic taste served as a revolting reminder of what had invaded my

mind.

The forest air hit me thick with pine and something else metallic that made my stomach turn. My pulse thundered against my ribs like a caged animal fighting to escape. Julian’s steady hand pressed against my spine as we crashed through the treeline, but even his reassuring touch couldn’t chase away the cold dread wrapping around my throat like a noose.

The impossibility of it didn’t matter. I had seen it all.

That’s when we found them.

I bore equal responsibility for this tragedy because I should have revealed the truth long ago.

The helpless children screamed and pleaded, but somehow their voices seemed trapped, never carrying beyond their small bodies. The monster didn’t cease its savagery until their breathing stopped entirely,

I shrieked for it to end because witnessing such brutality was unbearable, but this was only a memory, leaving me powerless to intervene. The images would be burned into my mind forever.

The scene defied description. A strangled cry escaped my lips, raw and desperate. The vivid greens of the woodland swirled together into an indistinct blur. Vertigo slammed into me with crushing force, sending me stumbling before I crashed to the earth with a

bone-jarring impact.

Wolves should inspire natural fear, but this creature was different. It wasn’t the typical dominance you felt facing an alpha. Something hollow and vicious lived behind those glowing eyes.

Reality crashed back around me. My body had gone berserk, limbs thrashing wildly while screams tore from my throat. “Stop! Please stop!”

His jaw had locked into a hard line, eyes transformed to chips of granite. The tenderness from moments before vanished, replaced by raw, protective fury. He brushed away a tear with deliberate precision.

Only true evil could commit such acts.

Even its wolf form seemed wrong somehow, though I couldn’t identify exactly what

made it unnatural.

Two tiny figures lay motionless on the leaf-strewn ground. The sight stole my breath. What made it unbearable was their size, so obviously children, so heartbreakingly

small.

Seraphina’s POV

This was someone who had come here specifically for me, and today’s atrocity proved there were no boundaries he wouldn’t cross to possess me.

The shadow began to change. Joints popped and reformed, dark fur erupted across skin, and where a man had stood, an enormous black wolf now prowled. Its eyes burned with supernatural malice, catching what remained of daylight like dying coals.

Tears cascaded down my cheeks in an unstoppable flood. I pressed my face into his chest, gripping him as if he were my only connection to sanity. “I witnessed everything, Julian,” I choked out, voice muffled against his shirt. “Every horrible second.”

The beast moved with inhuman velocity, What happened next became a kaleidoscope of horror, an inescapable nightmare. The sounds would haunt me forever. Horrifying. Beyond imagination. My consciousness tried desperately to retreat, to block out every sight, sound, and perverted wrongness of what I witnessed.
