Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 415

Chapter 415: Chapter 415 - Until the day you find it in your heart to forgive me

Olivia had always hated dealing with smart people. They noticed the tiny details everyone else overlooked. They asked the tough questions she could never answer without slipping up.

They uncovered the secrets she had worked so damn hard to bury deep where no one could find them. That was one of the biggest reasons she had disliked Seraphine from the very beginning.

Seraphine wasn’t easy to fool at all. She saw straight through people way too quickly, cutting right to the heart of things. Even now, Olivia knew this entire nightmare had kicked off because she had stubbornly insisted that Voren marry Athaliah.

If she had simply stayed quiet, if she hadn’t tried so hard to control every part of his life, none of this would have exploded the way it did.

Her own greed had ripped open every single lie she had spent decades protecting so carefully. Now there was no escaping the brutal consequences that were coming for her.

Once she faced public disgrace in front of the whole pack, every Luna across all the packs would turn their backs on her without hesitation. None of them would defend her. The Alpha Code demanded loyalty to justice above any personal feelings, Lunas standing with their Alphas no matter what.

Ironically, the same rules she had relied on for years while pretending to be Grimroot’s Luna were now the very rules that would completely destroy her.

A defeated, bitter laugh escaped her lips. She slowly sank down onto the deck, no longer caring one bit about how undignified or pathetic she looked. Her clothes were all wrinkled and messed up, her face was stained with tears and mucus, and nothing about her resembled the proud, respected Luna she had pretended to be for so many decades.

"You’re right," she muttered, staring blankly at the wooden floor beneath her. "I became greedy, Kylie." Another tear rolled slowly down her cheek. "The moment I stepped into the Grimroot Pack... I lost myself completely."

Her voice carried nothing but heavy, aching regret. "I wanted to belong there so badly. I wanted that life. I wanted everything my sister had." She swallowed painfully around the lump in her throat. "When I learned Oriana had died... I took full advantage of it."

Nobody interrupted her. Everyone listened quietly, hanging on every painful word.

"At first, I really planned to tell the truth," she forced herself to continue. "After convincing Jasmine’s mother not to tell anyone the Luna had passed away just yet, I thought I would confess everything." A bitter smile appeared on her lips. "But then..."

She looked toward Vladimir, fresh tears filling her eyes. "The moment I saw him. everything changed."

She laughed weakly at herself. "He was everything my ex-husband never was. He was kind. He respected people. He made everyone around him feel safe and protected." Her voice became quieter, almost fragile. "He looked at me with such warmth, something I had never known before in my entire life."

Vladimir’s expression didn’t soften even a little. Instead, his face grew even colder and harder. "Technically, he’s still your husband." His deep voice cut through the silence like a blade. He didn’t even try to hide the pure disgust burning in his eyes. "You were never divorced."

The reminder hit Olivia harder than any slap ever could. She lowered her head as unbearable shame crashed over her like a wave.

Everything had fallen apart. And deep inside, she blamed only one person for it all. Seraphine.

For decades, her secret had remained perfectly hidden. No one questioned her. No one suspected anything was wrong. Then Seraphine entered their lives, and little by little, every lie Olivia had so carefully built started collapsing all around her.
