The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 292

Chapter 292: Chapter 292 Addison’s Decision

Hearing Addison’s words, Zion finally took a step back, biting his lip. He didn’t want to seem selfish or unreasonable in front of her, yet sometimes a werewolf’s instincts were stronger than logic.

"I... I’m sorry for losing my composure," he muttered, his voice low and hoarse.

Addison, who had been ready to slip away, froze at his words. Lately, it felt like all she ever heard from Zion was apologies, something she still struggled to reconcile with the arrogant, prideful image of him etched in her memory.

But this time was different. This time, he apologized immediately, of his own accord. Could she take this as a sign of his growth?

Seeing how things were turning, Maxwell subtly signaled Levi to follow his lead. He slipped an arm around Addison’s waist and guided her back into her room. Levi caught the signal right away.

He tugged Zion along, who was still lowering his head like a pitiful puppy, and ushered him inside. Once they were all in, Levi quickly shut the door behind them.

He understood what Maxwell intended: better to continue this conversation in private rather than risk being seen quarreling in the hallway, where an omega servant, Elric, or anyone else might walk by.

As leaders of their own packs, being caught bickering in public would only tarnish their image and provide amusement for others. And more importantly, until they confirmed whether a mole existed within the pack, they couldn’t afford to let personal matters spill out into the open.

Once inside, Maxwell gently guided Addison to sit on the single couch facing the balcony, while he himself settled onto the longer couch to the left. When Levi and Zion entered, they both took their places beside Maxwell. Addison, meanwhile, was still a little dazed, too caught up in noticing Zion’s unexpected change in demeanor to remember her earlier urge to slip away.

After a moment, Addison gathered her thoughts and glanced at each of her fated mates in turn. Maxwell pulling them all into the room likely meant he wanted to discuss their arrangement and how things should move forward, now that they were undeniably bound together.

As much as Addison sometimes wished to avoid the situation, she knew she couldn’t run from the truth; her only option was to face it.

It wasn’t that she truly wanted to escape from them; rather, she felt embarrassed that her other two mates had caught her with one of them. It left her feeling as if she had been unfaithful, even though she hadn’t.

At the same time, she worried it looked as though she favored one over the others, something that could strain their bond in the future. Everything about it felt complicated and messy, especially when all of them had grown up believing in and valuing monogamy.

Addison let out a heavy sigh, finally setting aside her embarrassment. Maybe it really was time to face them seriously instead of constantly pushing things aside or running away; it was starting to feel irresponsible.

"I want to apologize," she began, her voice soft but steady. "For always trying to run from this whole fated mate bond and for only thinking about my own feelings instead of yours." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Now that she was sitting here, forced to confront them and her emotions, she realized this might actually be the best arrangement. If they hadn’t brought her here, she might have kept putting it off, never finding the right moment. And if that happened... when would she ever truly face them and share what was in her heart?

The moment Addison’s apology left her lips, Maxwell, Zion, and Levi all turned their heads toward her in astonishment. Maxwell, in particular, hadn’t expected her to apologize; he had actually pulled them all into the room with the intention of apologizing himself.
