Alpha's Regret After Her Rebirth by Aurora Starling

Noah felt sick. “And then what, Scott?”

Scott swallowed hard. “And then poison you. Kill you. Zoe would marry me, and we would take over Nightcrest together.”

Noah’s legs felt weak. He sank back into his chair, staring at Scott in disbelief. “But… but why? Why would you want that?”

A bitter laugh escaped Scott’s lips. “Why? Because I’ve always been second best, Noah. Your half–brother, never even remotely considered for being Nightcrest’s Alpha. You got everything you ever wanted–the pack, the girls, the attention. This was my only chance to finally have some power.”

Noah shook his head, trying to process it all. “But you wouldn’t have been Alpha, Scott. Adam would have been named heir, not you. Even if your plan had worked, Adam would have become the Alpha instead. Perhaps you would have been his regent, but as soon as he came of age you would lose the power that you killed your own brother to get.”

An evil little smirk grew across Scott’s face then, and Noah felt his blood run cold. “You wouldn’t…” he whispered, horrified.

Scott merely shrugged.
