Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 341

Chapter 341: Chapter 341 - You’ve got Voren

Humphrey blew out a long breath and shook his head, still trying to wrap his mind around the way Voren operated.

Figuring that man out wasn’t something you could knock out in an afternoon. He ran on a whole different wavelength that needed serious time, patience, and yeah, probably a damn whiteboard. "I’ve got no clue," he admitted, voice rough with everything swirling inside him. "But right now, I need to talk to Sera."

He yanked out his phone, found her name, and hit call before Kylie could even open her mouth. He slapped it on speaker and set it right in the middle of the table between them.

It rang twice. "Hello?"

"Congratulations, Sera." Total silence stretched across the line.

Seraphine clearly hadn’t seen that coming. Humphrey could practically hear her brain scrambling to figure out what the hell she was being congratulated for. Then Kylie leaned in close to the phone, unable to hold back.

"You made a damn good choice this time, baby. A real one." Her voice wrapped around the words with that deep, warm honesty that always hit when she meant every syllable.

"If we’d known Ravyn was gonna turn into the monster he became, we would’ve pushed way harder on your memory situation. We would’ve fought that nightmare differently. But it’s okay now." A soft, almost teary chuckle slipped out. "You’ve got Voren. And that changes absolutely everything."

On the other end, Seraphine went quiet in a heavier way, the kind that meant her mind was racing, piecing it all together fast.

Humphrey and Kylie were miles away. That kind of drive didn’t happen on a whim, and Voren was supposed to be picking her up soon to head to the pack. So when exactly had he—

"Is Voren there?" she asked, her voice carrying a rush of disbelief mixed with something softer and warmer that bled right through the phone.

"He just left." Kylie’s tone lit up with pure joy. "He came in by chopper, said he had to hustle back to take you to some shaman tonight. Goddess, Sera." She paused, voice dropping with deep affection.

"I looked into that man’s eyes when he talked about you. No wonder you got away with slapping him—twice, right?

When he showed up acting like he could demand whatever he wanted. A man who stopped loving you doesn’t look like that. He never stopped. Not for one single day."

The words hit Seraphine square in the chest, sinking deep and stirring up a storm of feelings.

She remembered both those moments like they were branded into her. The first slap had come from pure terror, white-hot fury, and the desperate need to protect herself. The second hadn’t been much different. And both times Voren had taken it. He hadn’t grabbed her, hadn’t exploded, hadn’t done any of the ugly shit most men would’ve pulled.

She’d gotten away with it in a way nobody else on this earth ever could.

Right then she made herself a silent promise, tucking it away somewhere safe. She was never doing that again. Not out of fear, but because he didn’t deserve it. Their feelings weren’t some big mystery anymore. He loved her—she knew it down to her bones. And Voren wasn’t the type to hurl cruel words at her either. That just wasn’t him.

She didn’t need to test him anymore.

"Thank you," she told them, the words thick with real gratitude and love. "Mom. Dad. Thank you for everything. I really hope you’ll be there."

Humphrey let out a short bark of happy laughter. "That wedding isn’t happening without us. We’re the parents of the bride. We’ll come early, stay over, the whole thing." He didn’t even try to hide the huge grin stretching across his face.

Kylie nodded hard beside him, like Seraphine could see her. "We’ll sleep over and everything. You better have a room ready for us."

The sound that came through the phone was soft but packed full of emotion. "I’d love that."

The call ended and Humphrey stood there a moment longer, hand still hovering near the phone, soaking in the warm glow filling the room. It wasn’t complicated. It was just pure, simple good.
