Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 638

Chapter 638: Chapter 638 - She hates me

Ravyn had grown tired of the long hair that had become his signature, the wild mane that had once made him look untamed and powerful. He’d gone for a haircut before making an appearance at the Silver Moon pack, a clean, sharp cut that framed his face and made him look years younger.

Well, he also changed his wardrobe from his usual informal wear to something somehow semi-formal for his usual pack rounds. Formal would be for special occasions, and now, informal would only be when he decides to rest.

He didn’t know what warranted this change, perhaps the desire to leave behind the man he used to be, but he was amazed by the stares he got from both his parents and even his two betas, Riven and Gray.

Arriving at the Silver Moon Pack, he didn’t expect to turn heads as well. The stunned look on the face of the Alpha King made Ravyn a bit shy, his hand instinctively rising to touch his freshly cut hair.

"King Jaron, it’s just a haircut." He shrugged, a self-deprecating smile tugging at his lips. "Nothing extra ordinary."

His gaze settled on Corvine, who had a small smile on his face, his eyes warm with recognition. "Corvine, you good?" Ravyn asked, his voice carrying a note of genuine concern.

Corvine nodded, his posture relaxed despite the tension in the room. "Yeah."

Their exchange was brief, and it was purely understandable because the two had worked together for almost a decade. There was a familiarity between them that didn’t require words, an understanding forged through years of shared history.

Ravyn greeted the other Alphas with polite nods, his demeanor calm and collected, before Jaron asked him, his voice hopeful. "So, you agreed to contest?"

Ravyn smiled, though his eyes told a different story, one of exhaustion and resignation. "King Jaron, anyone who knows my story would understand that I’m not fit to marry your daughter." He paused, letting the weight of his words settle. "She hates me because of Daisy, and it’s no secret that Daisy is still carrying my pup."

King Jaron’s face dulled, his expression falling with disappointment. "I thought you’d banish her. I heard all the evil she’s done."

"Indeed." Ravyn’s voice was flat, devoid of emotion. "But that would be after she births the pup." He added, his tone everchanging to something more businesslike. "I’m here for the other business."

"Oh." Jaron sighed with relief, his shoulders relaxing. "Then I hope you won’t mind staying a little over a week to give me a hand with the contest. We can talk about the business alongside."

"I don’t mind." Ravyn agreed, seizing the opportunity to stay long enough to know what Jaron was up to. The longer he stayed, the more he could learn.

"Good." King Jaron clapped his hands together. "We were talking about the deposit. It’s refundable and the rules are simple. If you pull out before the contest ends, you lose all the deposit. But if you complete to the end, you get back your money less 5% to cover your expenses as well as administrative charges."

A sigh of relief escaped the four Alphas as they began making the transfer. The numbers were steep, but the prize was worth it. King Jaron confirmed receipt before saying, his voice taking on a commanding edge.
