The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 50

Eros jaw clenched hard.

“Please?” 1 turned to look at Alpha Theo again. He looked awful. His skin wasn’t as glowing like before. He

looked pale, and hadn't seem to have gotten a good sleep in days. His emerald green eyes looked dulled, and

troubled.

| suddenly felt conflicted. | didn’t want to talk to Theo, but at the s| felt like talking to him.

| think there's sair of clarity we needed to share. Also, | know that my Gem; Eros wouldn't wanttalking

to him | wouldn't like it too if Eros goes off to Susie or sother girl, but | need to talk to Theo.

We can’t always have this air of unfinished business hanging over us.

| stood up hesitantly despite Nova and Alice shaking their heads Besuty’s hand cto rest on my arm, she was

trying to stopto makerethink what | was about to do.

Her face was blank, expressionless but | feel everyone's disapproval. | felt Eros warning anger growing through

our mate bond.

“Please. | think | need to do this,” | whispered to Beauty, and Alice and Nova

Beauty released her hold on my arm. | saw Arthur, Adonis give Alpha Theo death glares. | couldn't bare to look

into Eros eyes again.

He looked hurt, and angry. | really hoped he would understand. mouthed “please,” to him and quickly followed

Alpha Theo out of the cafeteria.

We entered a quiet hallway. Alpha Theo's subjects simply hung around protectively.

Alpha Theo stared atlongingly, his eyes moving from my eyes to my lips, my hips, my shoes and then back

to my face again.....

“How are you, Eden?” He scratched his hair nervously “don’t answer. You look good. You are good,” he said, and |

crossed my arms, watching him intently.

“You've

gotten so more beautiful and perfect, Gosh! You even have all boys drooling over you.” he said almost bitterly

| pressed my lips tightly. “And you're not looking good. You look sick. Why did you bringhere?”

“How do you expectto be good when he marked you. He marked you, didn’t he?” He growled.

Our cool conversation had suddenly gone bitter, and rough.

| shrugged.

“I felt it,” he continued “he must hav... you know, it was intense, and last night was really excruciating his voice

trailed.

“Yes, he did. He's marked me,” | replied curtly. He must have felt it that day, and our intense love making

sessions last night...

I don’t know how | feel about that. At initial, | wanted to get back at him for his betrayal, and that was why |

wanted a boyfriend.. but it’s all changed now. | havw moved on. | am happy with Erus. | don’t care about his

betrayal anymore, in fact Im glad it happened, because | was able to meet Eros and find true love.

fingers through his unruly hair in rage.

“Slike | felt it when you were fucking your wife,” | said calmly. | had suffered those pain, the intense heart-

wrenching and stomach burning pain when he landed on her bed the next night after we mated

| refuse to feel guilty for whatever he was feeling now.

“Okay fine, we hurt each other. we are even now. Let's get back together,” he growled.

My eyebrows furrowed in confusion “what??”

“Yes, we have hurt each other and realized our mistakes. Let’s get back together. I'm ready to make you Luna,

now,”

| burst out laughing. Is this man joking or what?

What does he takefor? A daft, foolish woman who doesn’t good good and bad?

“We are met to be together. That's the way the moon goddess ordained it to be. Please | need you. Please come

back to me, he begged.

“Cback to you, Theo? We were never an item. Before we could, you betrayed and rejectin front of the

whole pack.”

“I'm so sorry, Eden. | was a jerk. | truly now regret everything I did. You are meant to be my Luna, not Lyra. me

“NO Theo! | am not your mate. | already have a mate.” | said firmly, and he winced in pain.

“You could reject him, and cback to me. Look | could mark you and we could be mates again,” he begged,

kneeling on the ground

Didn't he hear anything about what | had said. “Move on Theo. have. Besides, I'm a hybrid now, and marked by

Suddenly his eyes turned cold. His hands wereclenched into tight fists at his side. “Look at you, feeling all high

and mighty now. How sure are you that he isn’t going to reject like | once didi Cback tonow that | am

still asking nicely, or its going to be too late for you,”

“Oh please! Theo! You're still the obnoxious and rude fellow youare... You should change!” | said, taking a step

back.

He was behaving like a lunatic. One minute, he was apologetic and beggingto go back to him, the next

moment he’s all rude, crazy and condescending.

“Look, my there is up. | need to go. | really wish you happiness in your marriage.” | said, about moving away

when he grabbed my arm.

“You are not walking away from me!” he yelled.

1 sighed deeply and opened my mouth to do what | should have done months ago. “1, Eden Willow accept your.”

“NO! STOP!” he yelled loudly and almost tuggedonto his chest when something suddenly flashed. In a blur

of a second, my wrist was free and Eros was grabbing Alplu Theo by the throat..
