Bad Love an Alpha’s Regret by Elise Sinclair

Chapter 329

AXEL

Awareness creeps in slowly when she stirs, shifting against me.

I tighten my hold, dragging her a little closer, my wolf rumbling contentedly.

I’m still half asleep, but I don’t want to fully wake up yet.

I want to stay right here like this, and not let the rest of the world

It’s my wolf, I think. He’s managed to wrest just enough control from me that it’s not forcing the shift, but his will and need for his mate is overriding my common sense that knows nothing good can come of me and Emily being together.

Not to mention the fact that Aaron said he would kill me.

I mean, I’m not worried about that. But I am worried about forsaking the vow I made to him.

Aaron is the first person I’ve truly liked and respected for

hundreds of years.
