Burn in the Alpha Princess’s Wrath
Chapter 219 Shattered
Kirby’s POV
I froze, a sharp, inexplicable pain stabbing through my chest.
Even as she finished speaking, a Rogue Pack car slid to a silent stop in front of her.
I stepped forward on instinct and caught her wrist. “Leslie…”
Anger red in her eyes, wild and cornered like a lone wolf forced to the edge.

I could hear my own heartbeat pounding—loud, uneven. I wanted to exin, but no words woulde.
“I’m going insane!” She ripped her hand free, her voice sharp as a de. “Kirby, what’s wrong with you? Why cling to me like some buzzing fly?”
My grip tightened again, but my palm was cold as ice.
I forced myself to hold steady, my voice low, almost pleading. “Believe me or not, Leslie, I truly regret it. If I could just have another chance-
“Enough!” she cut me off.
The pain in her gaze was no longer hidden, and it cut through me like knives.
“Kirby, I’ve had nightmares for years, always reliving the past! Ever since I met you, I haven’t had a single day of happiness!”
Her words broke apart, jagged with hatred and agony.
I stood rooted, my heart hammered by her voice, pain choking the breath from me.
“I don’t regret saving you in the Bloodfang Arena. But I’m begging you–let go of the past. Stop bringing it up!” She gritted her teeth, despair edging every word. “Whether you regret it or not, it means nothing to the three years of pain I endured. In fact… it’s almostughable.”
My body stiffened. The anguish in her eyes spread through me, piercing bone and marrow.
All that pain–pain I caused–yet I had never even known.
In a blink she smoothed her expression, her gaze cold as steel as she looked ahead. She gave a faint, bitter twist of her lips. “You don’t need to feel sorry. You don’t need to regret anything. It’s over. We can just live in peace.”

She shook off my hand, turned, and climbed into the car without once looking back.
I stood there, night wind biting cold, yet my chest burned like fire.
Her words echoed in my mind, each one a de cutting me raw.
I watched the ck car disappear into the darkness, the ache swelling in me like a tide.

When I finally turned away, I didn’t head for Bloodrock Estate. Instead, I drove straight to a bar.
Inside the deepest private room,ughter and noise filled the air. Leiss and Ryan were there with others.
“Kirby, weren’t you having dinner with Leslie’s family? What are you doing here all of a sudden?”
Leiss rose in surprise, curiosity in his eyes.
The moment Leslie’s name was spoken, my chest clenched, the impact crushing.
I gave no answer. Dropping into a seat. I grabbed a bottle of vodka and drank straight from it.
My Alpha pheromones spilled uncontrolled, sharp and suffocating, choking the room with icy weight.
“Lord Kirby, did something happen? Did Leslie give you the cold shoulder?”
The careless voice of a young wolf cut through the silence, his tone mocking.
The bottle in my hand stilled. My gaze snapped toward him, eyes burning with a lethal chill.
Leiss frowned, about to intervene, but the idiot went on smugly. “That woman doesn’t know her ce! You discarded her once already. If you go back to her, that’s you giving her face. And she dares give you attitude?”
<i>What </i><i>did </i><i>he </i><i>just </i><i>say</i>? Lance’s voice snarled inside me, calm yet thrumming with deadly intent.
My eyes red red, fury detonating in my chest.
With a sudden crash, I smashed the bottle down on the ss table.
The explosion of shattering ss sent shards flying, slicing across the young wolf’s face, blood trickling down his cheek.
The room fell into frozen silence.
Hisplexion drained to white, lips trembling, terror silencing him.

I rose slowly, towering over him, voice cial. “And you think you’re worthy to even speak her
name?”
I stepped forward and drove my boot into his chest. He folded with a strangled cry, writhing on the ground, drenched in cold sweat.
“Kirby!” Leiss rushed in, blocking me, his voice urgent. “Calm down!”
He turned to the others. “He’s drunk. Leave this to me. Everyone else, get out.”
The crowd hurried away, dragging the battered, half–conscious wolf out with them.
