A Love Reawakened The Alpha’s Regret 183
BOOK 2 CHAPTER 59
Rowan's POV
It's been three days since Harriette left the pack. Three excruciating days How I managed to keep control of my sanity was a mystery to me. If possible, I should be given an accolade for doing that shit successfully.
The thought of her being miles away haunted me. Her presence in my room the night before she left calmed both Thorne and me for a while and her lingering scent was the only thing I Was holding on to.
1 talked to her a day before but that wasn't enough. I needed her presence like my life depended on it.
I didn't know how long it would take before I would see her again but I hoped I don't lose it before then.
"You'll kill him, Alpha Rowan, let him go,"
Mila spat, holding a mocking smile. She squinted her eyes as she tried to hold the laughter while she stared down at me and
Gidon
I let go of the chokehold I had on him and Gideon started coughing violently.
I hadn't even realized I was holding on for that long
God! 1 almost died. I swear, I saw my mom," Gideon managed to say after he got back on his feet
His voice was still strained and his words, forced.
"I wanted to train alone. You insisted on joining me, I reminded him..
"Yes, I did because I was gullible enough to believe that you wouldn't kill me," he snapped. "Alpha Rowan," he added when he realized he was being disrespectful.
I didn't care about the respect thing. Infact, I didn't give a shit about it but these days, I've been on edge.
"You owe me your life, Gideon. If I hadn't been here, he would've killed you," Mika added jokingly.
"My life is worth nothing, Mika, I promise. My family members are dead and I don't have a penny to my name," Gideon answered.
"You don't have to be so serious about a joke,"
"I almost lost my life right now. I think I'm allowed to crack a serious joke,"
1 groaned. One thing about Gideon that I hated was how he never knew how to let go of issues. He would talk about it repeatedly until you get so close to punching the daylight out of him
"Talk about it one
one more time and I'll
rip
your
throats out and gave it to our science students to dissect,"
I threatened.
"I almost got my breath cut off five minutes ago. I wouldn't be surprised if I get my throat ripped out,"
"Goodness, Mika groaned.
I could see my claws protruding because of how angry I was. I stood up and left for the changing room before I committed a murder. Gideon was pissing me off but it wouldn't be enough reason to murder him.
"You've been on the edge lately, Mika said from behind me.
"So you've reminded me since," I told her.
I'd first run around the pack before I came into the training room. The plan was to lift weight, hit the punching bag for a while and maybe take another lap around the pack until Mika al Gideon walked in. Gideon insisted on having physical combat with me while Mika decided we would go a round too after I was done with Gideon.
"Maybe you should call her," Mika suggested.
"I already did,"
You called her today.
I shook my head. "Maybe you should call her today,"
"And why would I do that?" I asked her.
"Calling her every day would help calm both you and that demon inside of you,"
"Careful what you say about Thorne. Don't make him go after you once he's in control,"
Mika suddenly went pale. It was a joke.
"That might've been a joke in your own book but you shouldn't joke like that with people who know that bastard."
She answered.
"Fine!" I groaned.
"Why don't you go see her?"
I turned to her, dejectedly. "Why don't you leave me alone, Mika?
"Im just worried about you,"
"There's nothing to be worried about. I'm good, I told her.
"No, you're not. Should I remind you of the things you've done since Harriette left? I had to keep checking to see if it was Rowan or Thorne, Guess what, it's only been three days,"
"All I need is a distraction,"
"You almost killed Gideon just now,"
"Things went out of hand for a bit,"
"You clawed out a prisoner's eyes this morning."
"He wouldn't tell me what I wanted,"
"You crashed your car into the drainage and yelled at everyone to leave it there,"
"Mechanical errors, not my
fault."
"You yelled in the chef's face because he added
cayenne pepper to your oats. Before you find an excuse for that too.
remember it was your weird thing. You always told him to add silt to it,"
I shrugged.

"Change of taste. It happened to everyone, not just me."
"You knocked a warrior out cold because he was in your way."
"Where are you going with all these reminders?"
She folded her hand against her chest. "You miss her,"
I scoffed. There was no way I would agree to that. "No, I don't, I ed.
"Yeah, keep telling yourself that," She spat. "Just call her more often or go visit her. I want Alpha Rowan, not an Alpha cranky
ass
Gideon suddenly emerged into the changing rooms, looking alarmed.
"Something's up at the borders,"
He announced.
"What is it?"
"I haven't confirmed yet but the head of the warriors wanted us to come.
1 dropped the things I had with me into the locker room and locked it up.
We walked to the gates and we were met with the most shocking scene ever.
"Not No! No," Mika cried.
One of our warriors who had gone out on a patrol was brought hack dead. He was covered in his own blood with visible wounds on his body. I clenched my jaw as I took in his lifeless form.
He came into my rogue pack to survive, not die.
“How did this happen?” I asked, pointing at the boy.
We
e went on a patrol this afternoon and when we got back, we discovered he was missing. We tried looking for him but we got nothing. We went back again a few minutes ago and we saw him like this,"
Whoever did this had officially declared war upon themselves and what they want is exactly what I'll give
Gideon walked closer to the body and pulled out the white note from his pocket.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
He gave the note to
o me. It was almost covered in blood but I could still read through the lines.
"Hello puffyface, I know you've missed me.”
My hand shook as I read those words over and over again. The part of me that I was struggling to hide was becoming visible. My past was haunting
my present.
But future me knew that instead of succumbing to the pain
