Chapter 18 Silas looked down , slightly confused but too drunk to say anything . I quickly pulled back , a smug smile tugging at my lips . But then , instead of letting me go , Silass arms tightened around me . He buried his face in my hair , murmuring , Dont leave me . His words startled me . Silas , whats wrong with you ? Are you … in love with me ? I asked , half joking , half serious . Silass grip tightened further , and his voice was barely a whisper . Yes , I love you . For a moment , I was taken aback . Had he really fallen for me ? Had my plan worked ? But then , his next words shattered that illusion . owena … I love you . Dont leave me . My old name . The name I hadnt gone by in years . My heart clenched as the memories came rushing back . He hadnt forgotten me . But how could he say he loved me when hed been responsible for the deaths of my two daughters ? He had let them die , all for Lenas son . As Silas clung to me , refusing to let go , I struggled to keep my emotions in check . His arms were tight around me , and I could feel the weight of his drunken state pressing on my chest . Silas , I muttered , trying to wiggle out of his embrace , but he was too strong , even in his drunkenness . I turned my head and caught sight of Silass assistant standing awkwardly a few feet away , unsure of what to do . Your Alpha is drunk , I said firmly Pull him away from me . The assistant hesitated for a second before nodding and stepping forward to untangle Silass arms from around me . Silas , the assistant said gently , trying to coax him away . Luna is throwing a tantrum again . We need to get you home . But Silas , in his intoxicated state , barely registered his assistants words . He slurred , I dont care about Lena , and then continued to hold onto me , murmuring my old name Rowena under his breath . Rowena … Rowena , dont leave me . It was exactly what I wanted . Silas was falling into the trap , and I could only imagine how Lena would feel if she heard him now , calling me by a name she probably despised , begging me to stay . I saw an opportunity . The assistants phone rang , and we both knew who it was . Its Lena , isnt it ? I asked , watching the assistant fumble with the phone , clearly torn between answering it and dealing with the current situation . I gave him a small smile and said , Answer it . Let Luna and Silas talk about this . Maybe if she hears him , hell stop clinging to me . But of course , that wasnt my true intention . My real goal was for Lena to overhear Silas calling my name Rowena in his drunken haze , making it clear that he had never truly forgotten me . I wanted her to hear every word , to feel the weight of that betrayal . It would shatter her . The assistant glanced at me nervously but eventually answered the call . Luna , he began , his voice shaky , I have Silas here , but- Before he could finish , Silas waved the phone away , grumbling , I dont want Lena . I want Rowena . His voice rose , and he shouted at me again . Rowena , please ! Come back to me . I regret everything . I love you . The assistants eyes widened as Silass words spilled out , clear enough that anyone on the other end of the call could hear . I could only imagine what Lena was thinking . I looked at the assistant . What did she say ? I asked , curious to hear Lenas reaction . The assistant winced . Luna … shes furious . She said shes coming to pick him up personally . Shes throwing a huge tantrum . Of course , Lena would come running . But as much as I would have loved to see her face when she arrived , now wasnt the right time . I sighed and grabbed my bag . Well , if shes coming , Id better leave before things get messy . I cast one last glance at Silas , who was still slumped over , mumbling my old name . Take care of him , I told the assistant before turning on my heel and walking out . 12:29 Alphas Regret : Magnificent Return of the Rejected Luna 33.3 % Chapter 18 Silass voice trailed behind me as I exited .

When I got home , the weight of the nights events hung over me , but I wasnt about to let it show . As soon as I walked through the door , I found Branwen sitting at the table , calm and collected as always . I signed the contract , I announced , trying to sound upbeat . Evans Group is officially working with us . This is going to be great for Silverlake . Branwen barely glanced at me , his expression neutral . I know , he said softly , his tone betraying no emotion . It wasnt the reaction I had expected . After all , this cooperation was going to benefit his pack just as much as it would mine . But Branwen was hard to read , and I knew better than to push him . Thankfully , I didnt have to dwell on it for long . Joanne and Joey burst into the room , all energy and excitement . Youre home !
