The Beta’s Regret

I was so sad, pissed and hurt.

Eros had taken Susie‘ side. It felt like he chose her over me.

They had also been lovers. Susie also went with them to Royal Palace for their duties.

I burst into tears as I plopped my weight on my bed.

How did today end like this? I had started the day in cloud nine, with Eros in my arms but now I am feeling so hurt…

I cried so much and couldn’t sleep. My mom and sister had come to knock on my door but I didn’t open for them.

It felt like I was dying in this slow pain. It hurts even worse than Theo’s rejection.

It was past midnight, and I still needed to let off the steam. I reached for Tiara and phased into my Hybrid.

It was almost too natural for a baby Hybrid, but my mother had me with her mate… so there can’t be any side stories to my quick Hybrid transformation.

I admired the creature in front of me. My reflection in the mirror. My eyes were all black. Dark blue veins appeared around my eyes and all over my face, and my body. My limbs were elongated as I was so tall. Fangs stretched out from my mouth and my claws sharp, beautiful and neat. A half werewolf, and vampire.

I jumped out of the window, and started running. I ran till I was breathless and returned to my room.

I showered, and sleep consumed me when my head touched my pillow…

The next morning I woke up to no smell of Eros. He didn’t drop by as usual.

It got me mad again. I know I asked for space, but did he had to take it that far. He could have just wheezed in, and wheeze

out.

Arrgggh. This man is driving me nuts.

I walked out of the house after breakfast, and saw Eros waiting for me in his car. The scowl on my face deepened as I entered the car.

He was looking gorgeous as usual, but something was off about Him today. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

I could feel waves of controlled anger from him the moment I got into the car.

His wonderful scent enveloped me, and I felt a little peace but I was still burt.

1 still don’t feel like talking to him, and so I just stared out the window the whole drive. I felt his eyes one from time to

time.

“How long are you going to keep this up?” he asked “Or have you decided not to talk to me ever again?”

“I just need some space. More space will do,” If he was going to keep defending his beloved Susie, then I need more time.

“I thought I was already giving you time?” he asked, gritting his teeth.

“Well, more wouldn’t hurt,” I said, and pushed the door open. We were already in school.

His hand snatched my wrist in a firm grip before I could jump out and run off. He leaned over me and closed the door “I’m not usually a very patient man, Eden,” he whispered in my ear. There is something dark and feral in his voice, lurking

underneath that calm surface.

I was suddenly reminded of what he really was. The most powerful, deadly, and dangerous Hybrid in the realm.

He pinned me to the leather seat “So far, have been patient with you,” he kissed my forehead roughly, and trailed his nose to my cleavage.

“I heard of you partying while I was away,” there was so much anger and jealousy in his voice. “Tell me, how much fun did. you have that night, Butter?”

I tried to push him off but ended up squirming “Let me guess, Susie told you this.”

“She happened il overheard some kids talking about it, he growled menacingly.

Suddenly his fingers found the zip beneath my cleavage. He tugged it a little down, planting his lips on my breast. I tried to push him off but he held me firmly with his right hand and used his left hand to unclasp my bra hook from my back. One my breasts sprung free. Then he bent to kiss on the nipple.

Ripples of pleasure ran through me. My eyelids fluttered shut as his mouth clamps on breast. He sucked, teased, licked my nipple.

1 let out a cry of ecstasy.

His face angled to my neck, and I felt his canines on the skin of my shoulder. “I might decide to collect what’s mine very soon, whether you’re ready or not.” He whispered firmly before kissing my shoulders.

Then he helped hook my bra and arrange my clothes.

I took to my heels in no time.

I spent the rest of my day avoiding everyone, and Eros. But still even when I don’t see him, I could feel his eyes on me, especially in hallways between classes.

Sometimes I wished I can still pretend that he was looking at something behind me.

During lunch, I felt his gaze burning holes through the side of my head.

“He hasn’t taken his eyes off of you still,” Alice said with a smile.

“Yeah, but don’t look yet. That b’tch Susie is clinging onto him like a leech…” Nova said with a glare.

“Nova, Alice whispered “they can hear you.”

After yesterday’s incident, my friends decided to sit at our usual able and I decided to join them.

Oh, and that warning from Nova not to look? It made me look. I was hard enough that I had to keep my eyes away from him most of the time today. Especially after that sinful thing he did in his car with me…

And indeed, Susie was clinging onto his arm like the leech Nova said she was. She was even resting her chin on his shoulder.. her face so close to his. I felt like scratching her perfect face.

Eros‘ eyes were fixed on me, intense and challenging. He was daring me with his eyes to look away. Our eyes locked for a minute before I managed to tear my gaze away.

I glanced back a few minutes later to see them whispering to each other. Their heads and lips so close to each other. It hurts. Why does it hurt so much?
