The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 326

Chapter 326: Chapter 326 See Through His Eyes

They had always found excuses for the way they treated Addison, dressing up their cruelty as something justified. But in truth, they simply needed a scapegoat, a target for their own bitterness and dissatisfaction with life.

There will always be people who bully the weak and cower before the strong, and Addison became their victim. They tormented her mercilessly, yet when Zion slaughtered their family members before their very eyes, not one of them dared to even lift their head.

Zion also knew he wasn’t entirely blameless for what happened to Addison. That was why the nightmares never stopped. Each time he dreamed of her being tortured in the dungeon, another version of himself would appear, one that seethed with hatred for her.

And every time, he would ask himself why. Why had he hated Addison? She wasn’t the enemy. The vampires were the very ones who killed his father.

Going to the frontlines and slaughtering them should have been enough to vent his anger and hatred. Yet instead of aiming his rage where it truly belonged, he had placed such a crushing blame on a fragile woman who couldn’t even bring herself to kill a bug.

That version of Zion, the one who questioned and condemned him, was like his inner demon, constantly dragging him toward the edge. It whispered for him to let go, to surrender to his beastly instincts and burn everything to ash.

It crushed his restraint underfoot, forcing him to relive Addison’s suffering again and again. In his nightmares, it stood beside him as he watched her being tortured, while mocking his helplessness.

It circled him like a predator, taunting and jeering, then shifted its gaze to Addison, snickering with perverse delight at her tear-streaked face, as though her agony was a spectacle it savored.

When Zion finally found Addison again, it was as if that demon inside him had sunk to the depths of his mind, silenced by the light she brought back into his world. She was his driftwood in the storm, the one thing keeping him afloat when he was drowning in darkness.

But now, seeing Addison dragged under by the weight of her past trauma, he could feel that demon stirring once more. This time, however, its murderous hunger was no longer turned inward; it was fixed squarely on Greg.

Zion’s resolve hardened. He would end Greg, and with him, tear out the root of Addison’s suffering and trauma.

It took Zion a long while to coax Addison into calming down, whispering reassurances that he would always be there for her. Yet, no matter how many promises he spoke, the true anchor that pulled Addison back wasn’t his words, but it was their children.

The mere thought of them reignited her rationality.

’I can’t stay like this forever. If I crumble just at the sound of Greg’s name, how could I ever protect my children? I can’t afford to be this weak. I need to stand tall, for my two angels.’

Slowly, the trembling in her body stilled. The haze in her eyes sharpened, hardening into steel. She lifted her gaze, no longer dazed but resolute, as if bracing herself for the fight ahead.

Addison lifted her gaze to Zion’s, searching his eyes as if the truth could be found there. No matter how strong she had become, she knew she couldn’t fight this battle alone; she needed to know how much he was willing to give to protect her.

And what she saw left her breathless. His eyes burned with unwavering devotion, so absolute it left no room for doubt. Beneath that loyalty, however, lingered a deeper intensity, an obsession, a possessiveness, that made her tremble.

Yet it wasn’t fear that stirred within her, but something else, something that tugged at her heart.

’Zion, can I really trust you this time?’ Addison wondered, her gaze locked firmly on his.
