Buried by My Alpha Crowned novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7

I just thought his performance pathetic.

He’d chosen to hurt and betray me repeatedly.

Now that I’d discovered the truth and left, he wasn’t experiencing genuine remorse.

He was cornered, desperate, suddenly claiming he’d loved me all along.

His love came with quite a price tag.

I couldn’t afford it, and wouldn’t dare try.

After the Council summoned him, Cassian offered a blood pledge to avoid immediate confinement.

He stood outside what used to be our pack house, looking completely defeated. His wolf was barely a whisper in his mind.

Only now did he realize how good he’d had it before.

A thriving business, a mate who loved him, and the promise of… beautiful pups carrying his bloodline.

He’d destroyed it all for what he’d thought was love.

Before this nightmare, he’d genuinely believed he loved Annabelle.

But after everything that had happened, he finally understood-he’d just enjoyed being the center of someone’s universe.

Sitting on the front steps, memories of me flashed through his mind.

I used to smile so much. When had I stopped laughing? When had my wolf stopped singing?

Maybe it was desperation, or maybe he’d actually fallen in love with me without realizing it.

All he knew was that both he and his wolf missed me desperately.

Cassian pulled out his phone, desperate to tell me he understood his mistakes.

He wanted to tell me how much he missed me, how his wolf was howling for its mate.

But Annabelle’s call came through first.

She was apologizing now.

Blaming everything on me.

“Cassian, look-even if Evelyn messed up, breaking the mate bond isn’t the answer. This whole thing’s already a shitshow for all of us.”

“Whether we sever the bond is up to Evelyn. I want to make this right.”
