Chapter 208 Alden’s Regret

+2 Bonus

Alden knew exactly who was out there on the balcony, yet some stubborn part of him refused to just walk away. He inched closer, his need to witness the scene overwhelming his better judgment.

When he saw Kaia trembling in Lucien’s arms, her body pressed tightly against his, a bitter pang of jealousy surged through him.

It was like wildfire, spreading unchecked, filling his chest with a raw, aching envy.

He’d never seen her so alluring, so irresistible.

Her cheeks flushed a soft pink, her body quivering from Lucien’s

kisses.

Alden’s heart roared with a jealousy so intense it threatened to consume him.

Lucien sensed the weight of a stare boring into them. With a quick, subtle glance, he spotted Alden’s piercing gaze fixed on

Kaia.

Without breaking the rhythm of his kiss, Lucien shifted, shielding Kaia completely from prying eyes, his body a protective wall against the world.

His lips never faltered, claiming her with unwavering focus.

Alden’s blood boiled, his fists clenching as he turned on his heel and stormed away. He couldn’t bear to watch another second.

Regret gnawed at him, sharp and unrelenting.

Never in his life had he felt such crushing remorse.

Back in his room, Alden’s eyes fell on his phone–five missed calls. His expression darkened, heavy with frustration.

Before he could return the calls, the phone buzzed again, shrill

and insistent.

Irritated, he jabbed the speaker button.

“Alden, where are you? Why aren’t you answering?” Luna’s voice crackled through, tinged with worry.

“I’m at the Graves Manor,” he snapped.

There was a pause, then Luna’s tone softened, almost too sweet. “The Graves Manor? But it’s not even Friday. Why are you there

for dinner?”

The faint edge of suspicion in her voice grated on Alden’s nerves.

“Luna, are you interrogating me?” he shot back, his voice sharp.

“I’m not your prisoner, and you don’t have the right to question
