Her Regret: Alpha, Take Me Home

Chapter 5: Plan B

Emma POV

I just came home from the academy and walked into yet another lecture from my father. God, this man can rant. “Are you listening to me, Emma?” he yells as I glance at my phone, and see another missed call from Drake. “Yes, father. I hear you loud and clear. I told you I would restore our family to glory. I just need time. I need to take this call. It involves one of the plans I have in motion,” I say, and my father sighs.

“Fine, but I expect results. Now is the perfect time to strike while that girl has been downgraded to Omega. You have to work harder, Emma. We are all counting on you. I didn’t train you to be Alex’s Luna for nothing. Use your feminine charm if you must. But you have to ensure he chooses you as his mate, not that b***h,” my father says. “Yes, father,” I say, and get up to leave.

If my father wasn't such an i***t to get caught, he could still have been Alpha of this pack. Then I wouldn't need to work so hard to get to Alex. If I was the Alpha’s daughter, Alex would be mine by default. I deserve to be with the best, not that ‘little orphan Annie’, Bella. I hate that b***h with every fibre of my being. But everything seems to be going according to plan, so come tomorrow, she won’t be an obstacle for me anymore.

I don't know why the f**k Drake is blowing up my phone, but I call him back. “What!” I snap when he answers. “Come to my place now, we have a problem.” “Now?” I asked, annoyed. “Yes now, hurry up.” He says and hangs up. Who does he think he is to order me around? If I didn't need his help, I would've had him killed a long time ago. Mate or not.

I can’t believe I was fated to that weak Omega. I mean Drake is kind of cute, but he is a f*****g Omega. I deserve to be with an Alpha. And not just any Alpha, only Alex. No one knows Drake and I are mates. The i***t eagerly agreed to help me get rid of Bella. He knows Bella is not of Alpha blood, but she somehow managed to get the Alpha ranking anyway.

So, I convinced him that he could steal her power to pass all his tests. Then we would both be ranked Alpha, and dethrone Alex and run the pack as we see fit. What an i***t he is. I have already instructed the rogues to kill him, right after they kill Bella. No one will stand in my way of being with Alex.

I got in my car and headed to Drake’s house. Luckily, there aren't many houses around where he stays. But I normally wear a disguise anyway. I can’t let any of the pack members see me there. It’s embarrassing for someone with my stature and birthright to be seen with a lowly Omega. Clearly, the Goddess was smoking some expired s**t the day she fated me with him. What was she thinking?

I park my car in the woods and head to the back of his house and let myself in. I find him pacing in the living room typing something on his phone. “What is so urgent?” I ask, and he jumps in shock. Clearly he didn't hear me approach. What a p***y and sorry excuse of a werewolf. He runs over to me and tries to hug me, but I push him away.

“You can’t get my scent on you. Bella will know,” I say. “s**t, I was in such a panic I forgot. Sorry babe,” he says and steps away and sits down. “Why did you want to see me?” I say, as I sit down on the chair opposite him. It disgusts me to be here, but I have to play the part. Even this filthy chair shows his lowly status.

“I asked Bella to elope with me as we planned, but she said no. She said that she didn't want to see me anymore, and that she would marry Alex. I have been trying to call her and text her, but she isn't responding. I think she blocked my number too,” he says and sighs. “What? You clearly said or did something wrong. Let me see,” I say and he eagerly hands over his phone.

I go through all the messages and I hate to admit it, but he laid the charm on pretty thick. He even threatened to take his own life. “What could have happened to make her change her mind? You are wearing the ring, aren't you?” I ask, and he nods and shows me the ring on his finger. That ring is the reason Bella thinks that Drake is her mate. It is spelled to make his scent seem like a true mate's scent.

I got it from some witch, and so far, it has done its job perfectly. I hate witches, but this one is very handy to keep around. I still don’t know why her love potion didn’t work on Alex. I did exactly as she asked, and the potion still didn’t work. That doesn't matter now. Getting rid of Bella quickly will serve my needs just as much. But we need to do it before her first shift. After that, the effects of the ring won’t work. She will probably scent her true mate and realize that Drake has been fooling her all along.

“Stop moping. It doesn't matter what changed her mind. I think I have a plan that will ensure she comes running back to you in time to execute our original plan.” “I am listening,” he says with a smirk. He thinks I am the best thing to ever grace this earth. He loves my ideas and follows me blindly. Everything I say and do is like his holy grail. He is right though. I am all that and so much more.

“I heard that Alex is throwing a birthday party for Bella tomorrow. Why don’t we crash the party, then you can claim her as your mate there in fromt of everyone. We can make a big spectacle of it. Use the ring as much as you need to confuse Bella. Alex will be pissed and lose his s**t. He will be so humiliated that he sends Bella away. She will have nowhere to go, but straight into your waiting arms,” I say with a smirk.

"Ooh, I like that. We can even do a nice slide show for him of the pictures we took of me and Bella. That will humiliate him even more. Send me the footage and pictures you have, and I will compile them into a little slideshow filled with shame. He will have no choice but to cut her loose. Then I will take her straight to her death, so I can steal her power,” he says, and I have to cackle.

Not only will she be embarrassed, Alex will hate her. I recorded Bella and Drake the first time he tried to pop her cherry. That footage is damning enough. We can cut it just before she tells him to stop, so it looks like they did the deed. Not to mention the naked pics he took of her when she was unaware. They may not have been intimate, but she did shower at his place, and we were ready with our cameras.

I like this new plan. I think ‘Plan B’ will be a winner. “That is perfect. Don’t worry, my love. The plan will work. You just need to sell it perfectly,” I say, hating that I have to play nice with this lowly Omega. I just need to put up with him until tomorrow evening. Then I will be free of him and Bella. And free to get what I really want.

I am not in love with Alex. Truth be told, I don’t even like him. I want what he has. I want his power and status. My dad may think I am doing this for our family. But I am doing this for myself. I deserve better, and I will stop at nothing to get it. By the time I am done with Alex, he will be my b***h.
