The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 227

(Olivia’s Pov)

I walked quickly along the hallway as I made my way out of my room.

I was excited.

My mother, Rose, and Lord Shevek had caused quite a stir. This was all because of Eden.

I would have never disliked my mother if she hadn’t treated Eden like the best daughter.

It was no surprise that I didn’t really fancy my sister, Eden.. Although I never said it openly, my dislike for her built subtly over the years. It started with the little things that irritated me, like my mother’s preference and other little things, until it became undeniable.

Eden was the perfect child.

Beautiful, intelligent, and lovely. It was always impossible to compete with Eden, who was loved by everyone. She had a presence that could never be overlooked, but I, on the other hand, was often overlooked and talked down to.

When Theo, her first mate whom Eden had fallen in love with, rejected her, I felt a thrill in me. In my heart I was glad that she could finally understand what it felt like to be treated as a second option.

In a way, I had hoped that Eden would remain miserable and that I would even find my mate before the moon goddess grants her a second mate- but I was so wrong.

Theo at that time treated her like trash after rejecting her, and just when I thought Eden would never be happy anymore,

she met Eros.

Eros was the exact kind of man I desired.

Tall, with piercing eyes and sharp facial features. His hair framed his face perfectly, and the way he carried himself looked like he was already king.

Every time I saw him and Eden together, I always felt jealousy hit my heart as I wished I could be the one by his side.

Eros should have been mine.
