Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339: Chapter 339 - Maybe it made you happy

Kylie was the first to snap out of the stunned silence. The weight of Voren’s words hung heavy in the small living room, too serious to brush off.

Her eyes widened for a moment before narrowing slightly. "Alpha Voren," she said, her voice calm but carrying a clear note of hurt underneath. "Are you suggesting that I had something to do with Seraphine’s memory loss?"

The question cut through the air. Voren’s jaw tightened as his emotions surged dangerously close to the surface.

Everything he had learned in the last twenty-four hours had completely upended his world. Esperanza, the missing memories, the possibility of sorcery, and the gut-wrenching realization that Seraphine might have spent years suffering because of something done to her.

Staying calm was getting harder by the second. Voren’s gaze stayed locked on Kylie. "So you knew."

The temperature in the room seemed to drop. Humphrey frowned immediately, but Kylie let out a long, tired sigh. The older woman suddenly looked exhausted. "Honestly, Alpha Voren, Seraphine appeared perfectly fine when she woke up. We had no reason to believe anything was wrong."

Humphrey nodded in agreement. "And don’t forget something important. Her parents were the ones giving us the information." The reminder didn’t do much to ease the storm raging inside Voren, but Humphrey pressed on.

"What exactly were we supposed to do? Yes, we were the leaders of the pack, but being Alpha and Luna doesn’t mean we can override a parent’s authority, especially when there was no evidence suggesting anything unusual."

The explanation made logical sense. Unfortunately, logic wasn’t doing much to soothe Voren’s emotions right now. The more he thought about everything they had lost, the angrier he became.

Years. They had all lost years that could never be recovered. His gaze darkened. "For some reason, I find that hard to believe."

Both Humphrey and Kylie stiffened at once. Voren leaned forward, his voice sharpening. "You always wanted Sera with Ravyn."

Neither of them denied it, because it was true. Everyone in the pack had known it—the future Alpha and the future Luna, the perfect pair, the perfect future. At least, that’s what everyone had believed back then.

Voren let out a bitter laugh. "Maybe it made you happy. Maybe seeing my memories disappear from her mind was exactly what you wanted."

A heavy, dangerous silence filled the room. Humphrey slowly rose from his seat. The older Alpha wasn’t angry, not yet, but clear disappointment etched across his face.

"Now you’re accusing us without any proof," he said, his voice dangerously calm. "And that’s dangerous, Alpha Voren."

Voren held his gaze, neither man backing down. Eventually Humphrey continued. "Yes. We love Sera. And yes, we wanted her to marry Ravyn when they grew up."

The honest admission surprised Voren. Humphrey sighed. "We won’t deny that. But things changed. Eventually we realized there was someone else."

Voren frowned. Humphrey looked him straight in the eyes. "You."

The single word stunned him. Kylie chuckled softly. "It took us longer than it should have." Her eyes softened with nostalgia. "At first, she stopped talking about Ravyn. Then all we heard about was V. V this. V that. V said this. V did that." Even Humphrey laughed quietly. "It drove us crazy trying to figure out who V was."
