The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 43

I shivered, placing a foot cautiously, while watching Eros keenly. My feet was in, while the rest of my body still hung out the window.

Eros eyes narrowed as he watched my every movement as though expecting me to run any second… Well, that doesn’t seem like a bad idea.

“Don’t even think about it, Butter,” he warned “because I’ll just catch you, and punish you when I do,”

This is not good… he is still mad…

“Why don’t you come in, my love?” he coaxed sweetly, but I sensed the warning bell in his tone. A trap.. and with the way, he’s eyeing me like a predator.. everything about him was screaming danger.

I will just–I leaped, jumping to the ground. I sprinted, grabbing the nearest tree branch and hauling myself up.

I was in my human form, yet so fast… I’d learnt in the last couple of days that I was growing in strength and speed even without shifting. Maybe not so strong and deadly as in my Hybrid form, but it was cool…

I heard the whooshing sound of the wind and propelled myself forward faster, and faster. I could sense movements behind me. Eros was close.. My heart was hammering, and my blood was pumping loudly. Pure adrenaline rushed through me.

I pushed harder and swung myself onto the branches and trees.

For a second, I felt I was loosing him. Suddenly an arm snatched me in mid–air when I tried to grab onto another branch. I yelped as his firm arm wrapped around my waist, pressing me close to his body.

He kept going, faster than I ever was. The wind was knocking out my breath, so I wrapped my arms around his neck, and my legs moved to circle his waist.

Oh, he smells heavenly. How I miss his amazing scent… Wait!!! what am I thinking? Suddenly I remembered his threat. My stomach clenched at the thought of what he might do to me.

Everything seemed to be a blur around me. What was I thinking trying to outrun him?!

He kept going further, and further and I have no idea where we were when he finally stopped.
