The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 192

I froze on the spot.

I couldn’t move, neither could I have said anything. I just watched Eros.

He looked–different. There was something sinister, dark, about him.

Eros tightened his hands around Lord Shevek’s neck.

The silence in the room was loud. Not even a squeak was heard from the crowd. Everyone was careful, as if they knew that one wrong move, and Lord Shevek’s neck would be snapped in two.

“Eden is mine.” Eros growled again. Then he raised a hand in the air to strike Lord Shevek, and I screamed.

“Stop!”

He paused but refused to look at me.

His hand shook.

It was like in that moment, he had a fierce battle with himself to decide if he should strike or not.

After what seemed like forever, he dropped his hand and threw Lord Shevek over to the side.

He turned around, breathing fast. He swept his gaze across the crowd and roared.

It was unlike anything I had ever seen Eros do. He turned to me, his

fixed on where I stood unmoving.

From the corner of my eye, I saw Beauty move away from Adonis and Arthur as she carefully walked up to Eros. He snapped at her, and she jumped back in surprise.

“It’s me!” Beauty gasped.

Eros lowered his head and bared his teeth at her. She raised her hand in surrender and backed away quickly. Adonis hurried to her side and shoved her behind him. He shielded her from Eros’s gaze.

“Back off.” Adonis warned.

That was dangerous.

It was clear Eros would defeat him if he dared, but Adonis’s desire to protect his mate gave him unusual courage.

I stepped in and took a step closer to Eros. He was my mate. There was no way he would not listen to me. The Eros I knew may be hot–tempered and sometimes act beastly, but he would always listen to my voice.
