The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 220

(Eden’s Pov)

The car drove to a stop in front of the royal palace. All through the ride, Eros didn’t say a word. He was tight–lipped and refused to look at me.

Ahead of us, the other cars came to a halt. We stepped out of the car and followed the elders as they led the way inside.

I took a look around as I walked.

It was a beautiful place. Eros’s childhood home.

I wanted to know what it must have felt like for him here. I looked at him. His face was set in serious lines.

I sighed and continued assessing the palace.

The mansion stood tall and well maintained. A fountain in the middle of the palace grounds reminded me of a waterfall.

Soon, we entered the hall, and I saw that the interior was better than the exterior.

“Eros.” I called, but he ignored me and walked ahead, stopping at the center of the hall.

I knew he was still displeased with what had happened. So, I moved closer and placed a hand on his shoulder.

He was tense. I felt it beneath my palm. The way his muscles became taut.

“We will get over this.” I said.

When he still didn’t respond, I sighed and moved back. I was exhausted. I needed rest, but watching Eros fume because of Ryker made me very unhappy.

I thought the brothers would eventually come to love each other, not this.

“A maid will show you to your room.” Elder Crandall said.

Immediately, a maid walked up to us and took our bags. It wasn’t a lot.

I looked back and realized that Ryker wasn’t with us. Somewhere in between, he must have been ushered into his own room.

I sighed.

“Welcome, my Lord, my Lady.” The maid bowed slightly with a smile. “My name is Avilla.” She said.
