The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Claire’s Plan 2

Now that the bastard child in her womb was gone, nothing stood in the way of her being with Zion—and this time, she’d carry his pup. The thought alone thrilled her. So when Zion stepped closer, Claire lurched forward and threw herself into his arms.

Zion’s muscles immediately tensed, his instincts screaming to shove her away. Had she not been the royal princess, she would’ve been thrown across the room without hesitation.

But Claire, oblivious or simply uncaring, pressed herself against him. She made sure her chest brushed deliberately against his torso, letting him feel every curve of her soft body. Just hours after losing a child, she was already thinking about making a new one—clearly, she didn’t want to waste time.

Zion placed his hands firmly on Claire’s shoulders and gently pushed her away. "You just lost your baby. Your body’s still weak—you need to rest," he said, his tone calm but distant. Then he stepped back, creating space between them like a man retreating from fire.

There was no desire in him—only revulsion. Her touch didn’t stir arousal; it made his skin crawl, as if ants were swarming across his body. Every hair stood on end with discomfort. But he masked it well. He couldn’t afford to show his true feelings—not now, not in front of a royal princess. So, he played nicely.

And feeling guilty?

No.

Zion didn’t feel guilty at all—why would he?

He’d thought he hated Addison, but now that he had time to think rationally, things didn’t add up. She had supported his pack without ever asking for anything in return, even when she knew most of them didn’t respect her—some even hated her. And yet, she still did her best.

Could someone like that really harm an innocent pup out of revenge?

No, he didn’t think so.

If Addison truly wanted revenge, she would’ve chosen a smarter way. The woman who managed to pull the pack back from the brink of collapse—who stabilized them, made them self-sufficient again—wasn’t someone reckless.

Pushing Claire down the stairs in front of so many witnesses, and even taking herself with her? That wasn’t just cruel—it was stupid. And Addison was many things, but not stupid.

Besides, he couldn’t quite explain it, but he found himself believing Addison—trusting her—even though she hadn’t said a word in her defense. If he felt guilty toward anyone, it was her. She’d been hurt, yet still thrown into the dungeon.

And worse, he hadn’t been able to protect her when his Beta struck her with a silver whip. He could only imagine the agony she endured—Addison, with her fragile, wolfless body, unable to heal.

The more he thought about it, the more his anger simmered. His fists clenched, jaw tightening, and the air around him grew heavy, charged with unspoken fury. But Claire misunderstood. She thought his anger was for her and that he was ready to punish Addison on her behalf. Inside, she rejoiced, already imagining Addison’s suffering once Zion made his move.

Claire was still unaware that Addison had already endured a silver whipping, escaped, and that so much had happened on the pack grounds while she was unconscious. When Beta Greg carried out the punishment, Claire was still undergoing emergency treatment to save the pup.

Just as she was preparing to go to Claire, Beta Greg called her back to clean the dungeon, delaying her further. Meanwhile, after Beta Greg made a pack-wide mind link announcement about Addison’s escape, some of the omegas serving Claire began to piece things together. freeweɓnovel-cøm
