The Beta's Regret (Eden and Eros)

Chapter 103

The moment I got to my room, I closed the door and fell on my bed.

I was too tired by the numbers of thoughts stirring through my head, so I simply closed my eyes and let sleep overtake my

mind.

However, my sleep was filled with various memories of my previous life. The wonderful hybrid life I was starting to have with Beauty, Arthur and Adonis.

I haven't seen Adonis in this life.

I shuffled restlessly on the bed, my fingers twisting the sheets I lay on, and then his face popped up in front of me.

The blue eyed man who had ruined me for anybody else. He looked at me hungrily, his gaze dipping to my lips and in a second he came closer and stood directly in front of me. ""You're mine, Eden," he purred.

I tried to calm my mind and fall asleep again, but the thoughts wouldn't leave me alone, so I got up and went to the

bathroom for a shower:

The hot water was revitalizing, and it soothed my sore muscles but also prickled my skin. I turned around to look at my butt and saw that it was slightly red

Now that I look at the mark of Eros gave me on my butt, it seemed to have transformed from a bite to something else.. like the mark in our previous life. How could this be?

He was cursed and I'm almost a nobody in this life.

I slowly rubbed my hand over the mark and I felt a small spark of friction the moment I touched it.

"Ouch, I winced when I touched my skin where he had marked me. It looked plain and smooth, much like a tattoo..

A wave of pleasure erupted inside me when I brushed my fingers on the mark, recalling the way he had touched me and his lips had kissed my skin. But the euphoria died down shortly as there came a certain anxiety. It soon bubbled up as I suddenly felt short of breath and gasped as I felt dizzy for a moment.

Placing my hand on the wall for support, I took a few deep breaths and sat down on the edge of the huge bathtub, catching my breath.

What was that?

I shook my head and ignored the mark while lathering myself with the shower gel. My hair felt dirty and matted, so I took my time cleaning it thoroughly and after almost an hour, I was done.

When I stepped out of the bathroom, I noticed that the sun had risen quite up in the sky. My gaze flicked to the watch, and 1 saw that it was 10 am. already.

I did not feel sleepy at all, so I thought about what to do next. And then I remembered that I still had to do some training to help me shift.

There must be a few members in the pack who awakened their wolves every now and then, so I hoped to familiarize myself with them and learn to shift soon.

I also had to focus on physical training so that when

my body and my wolf were ready, the shifting would happen without me passing out or worse, going in heat like last time.

Thus, I walked towards the wardrobe and sorted through the myriad of clothes to pick one suitable for training.

After ten minutes, I was ready to train in my black track pants, a blue sports bra, a blue tee, and black sports shoes I also tied my hair up in a ponytail after drying it well and stepped out of the room with a bottle in hand. Thankfully, I did not bump into Eros as I strode out through the room and walked down the stairs. I saw a few servants working as usual, and I gave them a polite nod. Clinda waved at the and called me over for a quick breakfast. I had planned to say no, but I did not want to pass out in front of the others, so I nodded my head as she served me some pancakes and juice.

"Where is everybody! It is quiet for a morning" I said, and she nodded.

"Oh, that is because King Eros left for some work in the North." she said.

Where did he go suddenly? When was he going to return?

A lot of questions popped into my head. I had been feeling a little hungry when she placed the dishes of fresh pancakes, but now I suddenly lost appetite.

"He left so soon?" I asked, trying to look disinterested in the conversation.

Glinda was still busy doing her chores as she answered, "Yes, he's known to leave for work at the oddest of hours, and I'm not in a position to ask him where he was going or why."

I nodded my head meekly. I had been prepared to ignore him, and do my best to not even bother trying to look for him and to make him aware of the fact that I could give him the cold shoulder as well.

But he was not even in the mansion to do that.

Why did I feel a sort of shame, and annoyance, and sadness?

Clinda must have noticed my expressions because she added, "Do not worry, my dear. King Eros is a busy man, and he would return as soon as his work is completed"

I nodded at that and finished my plate of Pancakes and gulped down the juice because she would not let me leave without

that.

Maybe this was for the better. I had to give 'us' space.

As much as I craved and loved him in my previous life, and now There was no denying that he is an Hybrid King and could chose that I only be his breeder, and nothing else. He could decide not to make me his chosen mate, but someone else like Olivia
