The Beta’s Regret

Eros growled, and clenched his teeth so hard that I felt it would break.

Elder Vallarta ignored my mate and announced “We need to go now.”

Ryker was the first to move forward, and Eros could only restrain his rage. However, he asked “Do I have to go with him?”

The Elders exchanged a look.

“Yes.” Elder Crandall replied.

“Let’s go.” I tried to pull Eros along with me, but he refused to move, eyeing Ryker who seemed like he wasn’t going to back away either.

“Eros.” I muttered sharply.

He growled. “I will not go with him.”

Elder Vallarta sighed. “You are sons of King Dimitrois, and both of you have a right to the throne. You will be treated equally.”

Eros said nothing. Ryker had a sly smile on his lips.

Elder Gallegos faced Ryker. “Do you have a mate? It will be good that she comes along.”

Ryker’s smile dropped. He frowned and wore a forlorn look.

“No, I don’t have one.” he said.

Elder Crandall frowned. “At this time, we cannot crown a King without a

mate.
