The Beta’s Regret

Eros picked me up for school the next morning.

Immediately I entered, he grabbed my jaw and kissed me passionately. I shuddered, kissing him fiercely back until both breathless.

I think Olivia prefers to walk to school with her new friends, because she feels shy and intimidated by Eros.

We were

Well, we’re going to have to do something about that since they are going to be in–laws. The thought made me blush even

more.

Eros kept peppering my hand with kisses as he drove us to school. When I stepped out of the car with Eros, there were no wolf whistles or hoots,

They know not to mess up with Hybrids, especially the Royal ones. On another note, I think the Hybrids; especially Eros in particular, is simply giving me time to finish my schooling- maybe after that, I’ll start touring them. My life is going to be

them…

Whoops! Slow down, Eden. When you reach the bridge, you’ll cross it

Eros wrapped his arm around me as soon as we were out of the car. We got stares, people whispering as we walked pass tried not to let that bother me.

I was feeling anxious about being around Susie again. She got on my nerve last night, and I don’t think I can pretend to be civil around her if she continued to behave like a bitch.

All the Hybrids were already in school when we arrived.

It was still early, and the sun was already shining, promising a beautiful warm day.

Eros gently steered me towards where they sat. Susie, looked, watching us from where she sat with the others. Her straight shiny black hair was in a sleek ponytail.

Her make up was also kept to its bare minimum. Well, she is one flawless creature.

Then she got up as soon as we got closer. “Hi,” she smiled, approaching us.

She came up to my height in her two inches heels “Look Eden, am so sorry about last night. It carne as a shock to me and I reacted badly. I hope you can forgive me,” she apologized with her innocent eyes. “I would like us to be friends.”

“Sure, I’d like that too,” I nodded with a forced smile.

“Cool,” she exclaimed, now pulling me away from Eros. She held me close.

“Hello, I greeted the others.

“Good morning. Eden,” Beauty replied first with a calm expression. She gave nothing away. Adonis sitting with her, smiled in response.

I noticed he stares hard like Eros, and that his eyes turn soft whenever he looked at Beauty. They are just right for each

other.

Arthur simply winked, and looked away.

“So. Eden tell me about yourself,” Susie said excitedly.

I shrugged “there’s nothing much to tell,” I answered.

41%–

“Oh come on. I’d like to know you better,” she coaxed, pulling me to sit with her.

“How long have you known that you’re Eros‘ mate? Did you have a mate before, and even mated him? Was he heartbroken?”

“Susie!” Eros growled at the mention of my ex–mate. He was sitting close to us as well.

“Oh, I’m so sorry. That was insensitive of me,” she apologized quickly, looking sorry. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“There’s nothing to be sorry about. It’s not a big secret or anything. Everybody in the pack knows about it,” I shrugged my shoulders again “He wasn’t heartbroken. He simply rejected me. So, it’s no big deal.”

“Rejected you? Oh my goddess, that must be awful for you. I am so sorry, Eden,” she said with a pathetic smile as she patted my shoulders.

“Like I said, it’s no big deal.”

Arthur shot me a hard stare, and I stared back in question. He looked away again.

What is Arthur not telling me?

After we dispersed, I met Nova in the classroom. We got chit chatting and taunting each other when Theo and Chris walked

into the classroom.

I was so glad that even with the changes in my life, nothing had changed with Nova and I. As a matter of fact, she is very excited about the happenings in my life.

Tiara could sense that

“Someone said that you had made a deal with the Hybrids to pretend to be mated with Eros to teach Alpha Theo a lesson.” Nova whispered into my ears, and we burst into laughter again.

People can be so stupid.

When the teacher entered, right after Theo and Chris walked in

Theo snubbed him. I don’t know the warnings the elders of the werewolf council gave him, or the threat from Alpha Griffin but it was all good.

He didn’t look at me but concentrated on the lesson from the teacher. Though there’s tension in the classroom, but after the class ended, he simply took his books and left.

I bet Theo doesn’t come to school so often but because he is bad at calculus. I remember him once mentioning that during our early days of knowing each other as mates.

I even use to help him solve some well too bad, despite being the Alpha he still needs his school certificate.

Intellect and strength is needed to help him earn ranks among the Alphas of the neighboring packs.

But it is quite frustrating that Eros and I doesn’t have any class together. All the hybrids have classes together we only get to meet briefly in the hallway between classes.

Every time we saw each other in the hallway, Eros would bury his nose and lips against my neck and breath in deeply. It’s as though my scent calms him

After the third period, he grabbed me by the waist, and carried me bridal style out.

Well, I guess it’s okay to skip classes if you’re a Prince.

“Butter,” he drawled, placing me in his car “we will be going for meeting soon. All of us, and so I want to spend the entire

day with you.”

My heart clenched in hurt “do you have to go?”

“Yes, baby Just two or three days. A week at most, and I’ll be back, he said, getting into the car

with me.

He grabbed the steering. “We’ve been summoned by King Pison this morning, he needs our help plus we’ve been away for sometime, and abandoning our duties…”

I could only nod sadly “okay”

Then I turned my head to look out the window. “Where are we going?” I asked.

“You asked if I would like to see you naked, and maybe even take some pictures. I was wondering if we could that today…”

My eyes widened in horror. I was only teasing him!
