The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 74

[Eros Pov]

I stepped outside and heard loud sounds of the wolves howling. What the I was going on?

I threw around a confused look and I saw they all had a dazed look on their faces. My beta had left the ball to see off some guests and girls whose packs were quite far from my mansion.

I didn’t want anyone to get hurt so I instructed them to drop the ladies home safely. That left just me in the mansion along with the servants and maids.

The wolves were howling and trying to trespass my front yard but when I showed up, a few of them put their tails in between their legs and ran away.

All this while, I could also smell the scent wafting at me as the soft breeze carried it to me. My feet turned around automatically and I saw myself walking in the direction of the scent.

After five minutes. I was in the backyard looking around through the dark to ascertain the source. And then I heard a noise. a soft whimper. My ears pricked and I immediately launched myself into the bushes.

When I parted the leaves, I saw Eden lying on the ground, twitching again

When I reached her, she immediately got on her fours and the intensity of the scent hit me with full force.

Eden was in heat and that was the reason the wolves were all howling around the mansion.

“Fuck” I cursed in my mind as I tried to make her get up.

u cannot be here. I told you to stay inside the room, right?” I asked but she was not in a condition to listen.

“Eden, you

“I am…I am sorry. I tried but..but L…this is too much. She tried to explain but was probably feeling too shy to speak those words out loud to me.

The wolves were drawn in by her scent as she was an unmated female and they wanted to mark her. And I could not let that happen.

Not because I wanted to mark her but she was not ready yet. Her transformation hadn’t been complete and her body was probably in an overdrive,

I hadn’t smelled such a strong scent of any unmated female before and I had been around plenty of females when they awakened their wolves.

Something was clearly wrong with her and her wolf. But now was not the time to make her understand that.

Eden’s eyes lit up with desire as she stared at me and crawled near my legs.

“I am not sure what is happening to me. I have this…this urge to…to… She tried to speak and tugged at her hair, trying to explain her predicament to me.
