The Beta’s Regret

Olivia kept standing close to him, too close to him, pushing her chest on his and a hot wave of jealousy washed over me.

“Olivia…” Eros replied wearily. He looked very tired and his eyes were drooping.

She took his hand in hers and murmured. “Yes, 1 know you wish to sleep. I want the same thing”

And then she smiled at him deviously. Eros gave her a tired sande. “I will ask someone to take you to the i

bedroom

But she shook her head. “No need, your majesty. I wish to stay close to you.” She then slowly trailed a hand over his shoulder and added, “You are very tired after today. Perhaps, I should give you a nice massage. Help you release that stress, she was speaking in a low, seductive voice.

Though the question remained of why he allowed her to behave like this with him. Did he also like her to some extent?

I remembered what she had told me earlier about how she was supposed to marry Eros and be his Luna. Her father was a powerful alpha so I guess that is how alliances work.

Eros slowly stepped away from her “You are tired too. I think it will be best that you go to sleep and tomorrow morning we discuss the further clauses.

Olivia’s smile wavered a little at his line but she quickly put up a bright one again.

“No worries. At least, let me walk you to your room then?” Olivia did not deny so she simply fell in steps and the two began walking up the stairs.

I stood like a statue with my back plastered to the pillar and waited until the two climbed up the stairs and went towards his room. I looked at the stairs and went towards his room. My gaze followed Eros until he disappeared behind the walls.

A torrent of emotions was coursing through me, making me wonder how I got to this point where my mate from my life is with another woman

I had sprinted all the way down to see his face but he had returned with another girl and I didn’t want to imagine what they had been doing all day This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Why was she so hell bent on having him when she knew he was cursed?

I went up the stairs gloomy, and headed toward my room, all the while scolding myself for being so childish. When I got to my room. I simply pulled up the sheets and buried my head in them, willing myself to fall asleep.

But it was to no avail. The entire night I kept tossing and turning in the bed while wondering what the two must be doing, if Eros had managed to convince olivia to give him a managed to convince olivia to give him a massage, and if she was roaming her hands all over his bare back. There was a small beep sound and I recalled that I had been reading my te messages on the phone earlier. When I saw the screen, the phone almost fell out of my hands.

It was a text message from none other than the hybrid King himself. I sprang up from the bed much more eagerly than I should have.

Pushing the hair out of my face, I hastily reached for the phone but realized that I had forgotten to charge it the entire day. The phone went dead and I cursed myself for my stupidity, not for the first time today.

Jumping up the bed, I checked the drawers, found the charger, and connected the phone to it. Too nervous of what he must have sent, 1 began pacing through the room all the while glancing at the phone.

Those seconds felt like hours as my gaze swayed from the clock to the phone and finally, when the battery showed the slightest sign of when the battery showed the slightest sign of life, I took the phone to open the text message. I had never been so disappointed in my life.

The text message only read “Stay in the mansion”

What the hell was that supposed to mean? And why was he telling this to me in the middle of the night?

No how are you” or “how was your o day or any mention of the night before? Was I just a toy to play with for him?

I had no doubts that Arthur had already told him about my visit to the packhouse and what Elder Ruth must have told him.

was so rude, and so blunt to me for no re

reason. I almost threw the phone on the bed and decided to be calm.

If he was going to pretend I did not affect him so be it. I had my training regime to follow. I would awaken my wolf and become a strong she wolf soon. I promised myself.

When I looked at the watch, it was already nearing dawn. There was no point in trying to sleep so I got up from the bed and headed for a quick shower.

Putting on my black leggings and a white sports bra, I topped it up with a loose t–shirt, grabbed a bottle, and headed out.

“Taking out my phone. I messaged Arthur.”

While waiting for his reply. I headed out the open garden. It was still early morning and the servants were just getting ready for the day’s work.

The air was pure and a little cold. I stepped out on the grass and took in lung full of air when I heard Arthur’s

Voice.

“Oh someone is ready to run.” I turned around and waved at him Arthur was also in his training equipment and his a little unruly.

crinkled when he smiled at me.

His eyes

“Only if you help me. I have not received adequate training from anyone, much less a beta of the hybrid King himself.”

Arthur came near me and said reassuringly “Don’t worry. I think you are going to smash it.”

I nodded and he asked, “So we will start with something light. I don’t want you to have cramps and sore muscles on day one.”

“Sure, let us do it”

With Arthur, I felt much more relaxed and comfortable compared to the hybrid King whom I did not want to think about.

A lot has changed.
