The Beta’s Regret

I snapped. “Yes, think about being Wolfless for a bit, and with no prior training from your pack.”

The snort disappeared from his face. “My human side is just as strong” he grumbled, reaching for a bottle of water “Focus on your training.”

I made an impatient noise and tried to reach for the bottle water but he tried to push them away from my reach.

By now my smile had turned into a grin as I was enjoying teasing him. I kept bouncing on my heels and showed as if I was still trying to reach for the bottle, but quickly went behind him and raised my hands up.

He was taken aback when I tried to sneakily grab the bottle from him. But that was barely for a second because the next second his hand went around my waist, grabbed me and plucked me off the floor.

While I was jumping around, my tee rode up a little, so when Eros picked me up, his fingers brushed my bare skin..

I had been completely focused on the bottle so the unexpected touch startled me, making me gasp in surprise.

Hearing me gasp, he looked up at me, and my eyes locked with his. For a second, he just stood there, holding me up in his arms while staring me in the eye.

His hair had curled on the sides and I had the mad urge to smoothen those and rustle his hair.

His head was at my eye–level and those luscious locks were urging me to roam my fingers over them.

“What happened?” He asked, and I blinked furiously, trying to ignore the way his fingers were still on my waist.

“N–nothing.” I answered while trying to look away.

That casual smirk returned a second later, and he asked, “So, you give up?”
