Bad Love an Alpha’s Regret by Elise Sinclair

Chapter 331

I run off Rathborn lands, but this time it’s on purpose.

And once I’m far enough away from pack territory and into the public National Park, I quickly make my way to the spot I’ve seen Ronan twice now.

I’m hoping to see him again, and part of me thinks I should have messaged him to check he was going to be out here again today. I know I’m taking a risk, particularly if Axel’s tied up with our enemy breaching our borders, but that’s to the North and I’m here, in broad daylight, far to the North.

I barely know him, but there’s something almost magnetic about

him.

Plus, he’s listened and seems to care in a way other people in my life simply don’t.

I want to get to know him better, and my heart flutters as I idly wonder just how well I might get to know him…if we might

become something more than friends.

The idea thrills me, but my wolf is unhappy and sulky about it.

She wants us to go back to Rathborn lands, back to our mate, back to Axel.

I push down my brooding wolf and continue on through the forest.

When I step out through the trees and into the clearing, I’m thrilled to once again see Ronan sitting on a picnic blanket, this time writing in a journal of some kind.

“Do you live out here or something?” I ask as I cross over to him.

He looks up with a smile. “I could ask the same of you.”

I sit down on the blanket without waiting to be invited, but Ronan is smiling, so I know he doesn’t mind. He reaches down to a
