Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 513

Chapter 513: Chapter 513 – Are you ready for us to go public now?

"Is it true?" Ravyn’s voice boomed through the hall so hard it made half the room flinch. His eyes burned with pure fury as they locked onto Raul. "Did you fuck with my woman?"

Before anybody could even think about moving, Ravyn lunged.

His fingers wrapped tight around Raul’s throat and hauled him clean off the ground like the guy weighed nothing.

Raul’s feet kicked wildly in the air. His hands clawed at Ravyn’s wrist, trying like hell to loosen that crushing grip, but it was no use. His face went from red to a sickly purple as the air got squeezed right out of his lungs.

"A...A..." The words never made it out. His throat was completely locked under Ravyn’s hand.

Watching the whole thing unfold, Daisy’s entire body started shaking. Shame flooded every inch of her so deep she could barely stand it.

How the hell had she ever been attracted to someone like Raul? Looking at him now, weak and helpless and choking, she couldn’t even recognize the man she’d risked everything for.

It had to be her cursed wolf. There was no other way to explain it.

Still...even while the guilt ate her alive, another thought settled heavy in her mind.

Ravyn was never going to forgive her for this. He would leave her, and if that happened, Raul would be all she had left.

With Bryan in the picture, Raul would have no choice but to step up and provide for them. Whether he liked it or not, he’d have to become responsible.

At least, until the Blood Moon Festival gave her a way out, hope still existed.

If her wish didn’t come true during the festival, she’d force her mother to track down that white witch again.

The mate bond could still be exchanged. Nobody had ever confirmed the witch was actually dead.

As long as there was no body, there was still hope. Tears streamed down Daisy’s cheeks as she reached toward Ravyn.

"Ravyn... please." Her voice cracked hard. "It’s not what you think."

She barely got the words out before another hand closed around her own neck.

Ravyn’s head snapped toward her, pure hatred filled his eyes. His fingers tightened around her throat and lifted her into the air just as easily as he’d lifted Raul.

Daisy gasped, her feet dangled helplessly right beside Raul’s. Both of them struggled desperately for air while the entire hall fell into stunned silence.

At that exact moment, the entrance doors opened, and Voren walked inside.

Snowflakes still clung to his dark coat as his sharp gaze swept across the room.

The first thing he searched for was Seraphine. His eyes scanned every corner of the hall, but she wasn’t there.

His expression darkened, and almost immediately, Kael’s mind link zapped through his mind. ’She went to the ladies’ restroom with the princess.’

Relief washed over Voren’s face so fast that only Kael caught it. Good thing his wife wasn’t anywhere near this mess.

His attention swung back to Ravyn, and a deep frown contoured his handsome features. Death would be way too merciful for Daisy.

She needed to face every single consequence of everything she did to his wife.

Voren calmly crossed the room until he stood right beside the furious Ravyn.

Leaning in close enough that only Ravyn could hear, his voice stayed low and steady.

"Don’t you want to know why they kept this from you?"

Ravyn’s jaw tightened hard, as Voren kept going. "What if they’re hiding something even worse?"

The words hit their mark perfectly, Ravyn froze, his grip loosened.

Instead of crushing their throats the rest of the way, he flung both Daisy and Raul across the room.

Their bodies slammed hard onto the marble floor, a painful groan tore out of Daisy as her back hit first.

Raul rolled across the polished surface, coughing so hard he could barely drag air into his aching lungs.
