The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 221

(Eden’s Pov)

I couldn’t move.

The thought that this had something to do with Lord Shevek was too much for me to bear.

What I saw, was it a vision or just a dream?

I desperately hoped that I was wrong, and this vision or dream held no significant meaning.

Besides, I couldn’t lose my father, not when I was just getting to know him. We still had so much to do together, and I still have to apologize to him for the way I spoke to him the last time

But, no matter how hard I tried to deny it, I couldn’t get rid of the despair I felt.

Suddenly, the water felt too cold since I had spent way too much time in it. Ithad lost all its warmth.

I wrapped myself in a towel and moved out of the bathroom.

I tried my best to get Lord Shevek’s thoughts out of my head, but it was impossible.

When I entered the room, the door opened, and Eros stepped inside.

His shirt was strapped across one shoulder, which left him bare–chested, and his skin glistened from sweat.

For a moment I admired his solid build and attractive looks, from the way he sweated, I knew he had gone for a run.

“You’re back,” I said softly.

Eros nodded. I moved away from the bathroom entrance, a little lost in thought. I wasn’t sure how long he watched me, but he suddenly moved closer with a frown on his face.

“Are you alright?” He asked

I released a deep breath and wrapped my hands around myself “Not really,” whispered.

Eros came from behind me and rubbed a hand over my arm.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

“I had a dream. A terrible one.” I turned at noon. “I’m scared, Eros.”

“Of what? What was the dream about?” Eros asked.
