Burn in the Alpha Princess's Wrath novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111 No Room for Forgiveness

Leslie’s POV

When I got the message that Leiss was waiting for me in the outer lounge of my office, I just let out a cold laugh.

Didn’t care in the slightest.

“Another loser sniffing blood, crawling back with his tail between his legs,” my Wolf Asphodel scoffed inside me, utterly unimpressed.

“Don’t bother with him,” I told my chief assistant, Liam. “Proceed with the rest of the meetings as scheduled.

Liam nodded. “Understood, Your Excellency.”

I sat through two emergency meetings, checked in on the progress of the Moon Goddess Relic project, and even grabbed a meal at the staff cafeteria.

My schedule was packed tight.

By the time things started to wind down near closing time, I finally remembered that someone was still out there.

“He still here?”

Liam knew exactly who I meant.

“He is. Beta Leiss has had four cups of coffee and even ordered delivery.”

I let out a soft chuckle. Leiss really did have patience.

“Let him in.”

“Yes, Your Excellency.” Liam stepped out respectfully.

Moments later, Leiss knocked and came in, holding a wilting bouquet of Crimson Roses.

I raised an eyebrow. His face was plastered with a stiff smile.

“Leslie, done with work already?”

He’d clearly assumed he’d be waiting until midnight.

I folded my arms, eyeing him with amusement. “Sorry to keep Beta Leiss waiting.” I said the words, but there wasn’t a trace of apology in my voice.

Leiss chuckled awkwardly. “Not at all. My time’s not worth much.”

“Did Beta Leiss need something?

I took a sip of coffee. Rich, dark, perfect.

Leiss put on a serious face, pausing to choose his words. “I’ve been thinking about what happened yesterday. Back when I was still running around as Kirby’s buddy, I really wasn’t very kind to you. I feel

genuinely guilty about it. So 1 came to offer a formal apology”

I looked at him curiously. “You’re not here because you saw what happened to Lucas and got scared?”

Leiss‘ smile froze, then he gave a sheepish grin. “Well… yeah. We all got duped by that Omega Liana. Kirby and I got completely wasted last night. When we started talking about the past, we realized how wrong we’d been. Seriously. We must’ve been blind. Leslie, since we’re truly sorry, can’t we just… let bygones be bygones”

He was smiling like a sycophant. That proud, self–righteous Crimson Moon Pack beta probably never imagined he’d end up groveling like this.

My eyes flashed with amusement, and I smiled as I shook my head.

Nope.

Forgive and forget? Keep dreaming. These people were all so unbelievably naive.

Leiss‘ grin faltered. He must’ve realized he came here just to humiliate himself.

As he turned to leave, I spoke coolly. “Leiss, the fact that I haven’t gone after you should already count as mercy. Don’t come looking for trouble.”

He paused, something flickering behind his eyes. Then he turned to me, eyes shining.

“Leslie, do you still have feelings for Kirby?”

“Leiss, are you looking to die?”

He shrank back immediately and gave a sheepish laugh before darting out the door.

Leiss‘ POV

I ran out of Westview HQ, stood beneath the building that looked more like a holy temple than an office, and immediately called Kirby.

Leslie might’ve seemed a little scary, but she hadn’t actually done anything to me.

That gave me a bold idea.

Maybe… she really did still have feelings for Kirby.

If she did, then there might still be a chance. With how far she’d come now, there’d be no obstacles if they wanted to rekindle the marriage bond. If they got back together, everything that happened in the past would be easier to fix.

“Kirby, I’ve never realized just how well you and Leslie matched…”

Personality, aura, family status–it was a perfect fit.

There should be a queen like Leslie at Kirby’s side, someone truly his equal. Who else could compare?

Kirby’s voice on the other end was cold and suspicious. “Hmm?”

But somehow, I thought I caught a flicker of… satisfaction?

I sighed. “But it’s not happening!”

He hung up immediately.

I could practically hear him shouting through the screen, “You’ve lost your damn mind!”
