A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 44 - Rose
Well, I had done as much as I was going to be able to for my father. He would be attending the meeting himself. He had made that perfectly clear. I have done my part now. It was down to him to see if he could salvage the deal. After going through all the paperwork and knowing all I do, I highly doubt he would be able to. He had been far from kind to me over the last few days, using me more like staff than treating me as family, and it infuriated me. Anthony had been avoiding my calls too, which only went to fuel my anger further. I think the news of our family struggles was beginning to spread, and Anthony has many business contacts linked to our business, so it would not be out of the realms of possibility that he had heard rumours, heard tales of our woes. That could explain why he was distancing himself from me, from my family. I was not quite the catch I might once have been considered. It had become seriously humiliating, quite frankly. So, I was glad to be getting away now.

I am beyond frustrated having to leave Ruby in the middle of this conversation. We seemed to be getting somewhere, or that is what I was hoping. I was hoping I could steer the conversation in the direction I wanted it to go, but then the bloody guard interrupted us and would not reply. He would be getting a mouthful off of me when I see him for choosing not to answer my mindlinks. Ruby seemed unbothered by me having to leave mid-conversation either, which I think frustrated me even further. I know she said she had plans with Lola and Esme, but still, I thought she would want to continue the chat we were having. I headed to the gates, having to walk, seeing that I had gone to Ruby’s house on foot this morning. Usually I would have jumped into my car. I try again to link the guard, Dean, but he still did not respond. I swear when I see him he is in for a mouthful from me! You don’t ask for me to get there and then not respond. Unless something had happened and he couldn’t reply? B

After sorting a car to drive us back into the pack, knowing Rose would likely not be impressed with having to walk all the way down to the packhouse, let alone my house, we were now approaching the main pack area. I can see her looking out of the car window taking in the pack. We have barely spoken since getting into the car. I truthfully do not know what to say to her. Plus, I don't feel like talking. It is terrible, I know. This is my mate. My fated mate. She has traveled across half the world to be with me. I should be as giddy with excitement as my wolf is, yet instead I feel full of nerves and uncertainty and I don't know what to do or what I want. I don't think that is a good sign. Not what I expected being with my fated mate would be... “Oh, I suppose the pack is quite pretty” Rose said, looking once more out of the window of the car. Her accent is quite cute, I have to say, but yet I can’t stand the sound of her voice. How does that even work?! And what the hell is she

We stepped from the car and Rose just stood waiting, clearly expecting me or the guard who had come to pick us up to collect her bags from the trunk. Yes, this girl has been so used to having people run around after her. I can feel myself getting irritated. I go and collect the bags and she still doesn’t move, nor acknowledge the fact Blake had driven us here. “Thanks for driving us, Blake.” I smile at him. “No worries Beta.” He nods and gets back into the car, without even acknowledging Rose. The look of disgust on her face was pretty obvious. Yet if she doesn’t make the effort to mix and be friendly with pack members, then what does she expect? “Right, let’s get you inside” I tell her. I see her looking at my house. Her lip is curled slightly, in distaste it appears. “Something wrong?” I ask her. “No, of course not, just a bit different to our houses at home.” she smiled sweetly. Oh, so it would appear my home is not up to her standard, going off the expression

What, how rude is the Alpha?! Going straight to the point. He may as well have demanded to know why I was here. Not to mention questioning why I was not going to be in on the meeting they had planned. Seriously, I am not impressed with Jake right now putting me in this situation. He would be getting a mouthful the moment I had chance.He wants to be my mate, then he needs to learn how to treat me correctly. I will not tolerate this sort of crap. I have been here less than an hour and I am already finding it irritating. Delilah is sickenly sweet, and Jake seems to think the sun shines out of her rear end. I can't help but wonder if he has a little bit of a thing for his Alpha's mate. Wouldn't surprise me when he hasn't had his own mate for so long. Yet the thought of it really infuriates me. The pack is worse than I thought. So country, it is unreal. The houses are like living in a lodge. The sort you stay in if you go skiing. Not a home. They are small. All modern decorations too,

I see Rose acting shiftily and it irritates me. It makes no sense, she has just turned up here. Not to mention the fact she hadn’t even told her family she was coming. It all seems very suspicious. Makes me wonder if she played a large part in all the difficulties going on in the businesses and was looking for a way to escape from it all. Having a fated mate in a different country was a perfect escape. We had been having a private investigation into both Rose and the family business, mainly to ensure we made the right decision for the company with regards to the business deal, but also in a way to protect Jake. Though he is not aware of the element of the investigation surrounding Rose specifically too. We were due the results anytime soon, and from the brief messages we have had, it was not promising. Kai and Cleo are busy playfighting again, the two of them seem to love doing this at the moment, though I know it is something that many brothers and sisters do at this age. I k

I can’t believe they have gone behind my back and had my fated mate privately investigated without my knowledge. Without even discussing it with me first! Yes, I knew they were thinking of looking at the businesses, which was not an uncommon practice, and something we had done previously with other business associates we were uncertain of, to ensure our safety. But this I think was a step too far. But it intrigued me too that he said there were definitely some facts there, as the investigator had warned them when they had spoken. Why had they not asked there and then what they were? Instead of waiting for a full report once the investigation was complete. I don’t think I could have waited!I know I can't be too angry at him, he explained, and his reasoning makes sense, I suppose, when you think about it. It wasn't that they initially set out to investigate her. It resulted in that, as the results began coming back from the business investigations. So, I don't think I should be ang

I made a cup of tea and coffee and walked into the lounge and saw Rose sitting awkwardly in the chair. Cleo stood next to her babbling away, probably hoping for her to play with her, the way Cleo did with most people who visited us, she was a little social butterfly, bless her. Instead, Rose is sitting there ignoring her, and as I stand at the door, about to walk in with the drinks, I watch her literally shove Cleo away when she rests her hands on Rose's legs. Cleo falling to the floor with a thud. I feel my heart rate increase in anger. How dare she! Hmm, I do not like this woman. Something does not sit right with me. You do not shove a child just because they touched you. I try to calm myself not wanting to cause issues with Jake's mate the first day she has arrived. But it is already irking me that she had the audacity to touch my daughter. I do not think we are going to get on. Not like the rest of Knox's friends' mates. “Everything ok Rose?” I said to make her aware I was i

The wedding ceremony had gone as planned and now we were celebrating with our friends and family. Our pack members. Today could not have been more perfect. The sun was shining for us, and Ruby looked as happy as I felt as she danced with her sister and cousin and their children. She had our little boy Leo, in her arms, Esme had Jorge in her arms, and Lola had Dario and Xavier around her feet. Big smiles on all their faces.As our mates were enjoying themselves on the dancefloor, me and my friends were sat relaxing as the sun was setting, all enjoying the music, while drinking beer together, much as we had discussed earlier. A pack party was always a good time, and always good fun, time to spend with friends and family, good food, good music and drink. The kids all having time together with one another, running around being crazy together, while the parents all chilled out together too. Like we had done when we were their ages. It was a perfect way to spend time. And today it was even

1 year later I stood at the end of the aisle, where the wooden gazebo was in place, next to Knox, my best man, and Alpha. Today was the day I had been looking forward to. Not only would Ruby be my mate, but she would become my wife too. The sun was shining and the pack was beautifully decorated for our special day we had spent months organising. I had wanted everything to be perfect for my perfect mate. The perfect day to celebrate our love, our relationship, our fate. I looked to my friends Dan, Gabe, and Manny, all of whom stood by the side of Knox. All smiling at me as they wait with me for my mate. I had to have them with me for today. All four of them, my closest friends, are like brothers to me, so my wedding day would not be complete without them being involved. Gabe winks and nods his head as he sees me looking at him.'You all good?' he mind links.'Couldn't be better' I responded. 'Just ready to get today underway'Gabe grins ' Always so impatient aren't you, J?

“Well beautiful, now they have gone, are we going to get your things moved in?” I ask, desperate to have her moved in officially. “Haha, you waste no time, do you Guapo?” she chuckles, walking to the lounge having waved our friends off from the front door. They had stayed for a large portion of the morning and early afternoon. Nothing like taking up my quality time with my new mate! I would make my friends pay for that in training, they could be sure of that! Despite all my hints for them to leave once we had eaten the food they had brought with them, and we had caught them up with the new developments, they still chose to stay and chat, endless, boring chat… or that is what it felt like. Maybe that is because my mind was focused on other things - things like the fact I wanted to get my hands on my mate! And them being there was stopping that from happening. “Well, is there something wrong with me wanting my mate to move in?” I ask. “Just want her snuggled up in bed with m

“You guys are so perfect for each other, it is about time you got together, we have been saying this all along” Indie says, still in a high-pitched voice. God damn, I wish she would speak less loudly. She gives me a headache! How Dan is not deaf by now I do not know. “Well, seems fate had that planned for us.” Ruby said with a smile so beautiful, she was clearly overjoyed by this new development. “So you took her as a chosen mate after all?” Dan asks. Jake shakes his head. “See, that is a development you don’t all know. We happened to bump into each other yesterday. And well, there were signs of fated mates there… seems fate had decided that we would be second chance mates after all”. There is a look in his eyes that tells me he is emotional. I am not surprised! Second-chance mates are rare. But they had both been blessed with one. One that could not be more perfect for them either. And they both truly deserved this second chance at happiness. Indie squealed in deli
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 103 - Jake
It was always fun to tease and joke around with Ruby, she was so easy to wind up, but that was irrelevant right now with her laid underneath me. I kissed her again before she had a chance to argue with me. Her lips surrender to mine, kissing me back, her tongue finding mine in an instant. Mmmm, I knew she couldn’t resist me… Her hand was roughly running through my hair, making me shiver as our kisses deepened. I let my hand wander down to her hips, gently beginning to explore with my fingers, teasing with them as I let them move to where I wanted to go… Boom Boom Boom. There was a heavy knocking at the door. Dammit! What the hell?! I pause what I am doing for a moment. “Maybe if we ignore them they will go away?” I whisper. Ruby smirks at me and nods, pulling me back to her for a kiss. Continuing our kisses, allowing our hands to begin to wander once more just as the banging at the door too continues. Boom Boom Boom. “Wakey Wakey Jakey Jakey!” I hear a voice that s
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 102 - Ruby
I woke up feeling so sleepy, I don’t think I slept last night. I stretched out in bed, not wanting to open my eyes, knowing once I did I would not be able to get back to sleep. I felt something touch my hip. And I froze. What the fuck was that?! My heart began to race. Whatever it was was still there… I balled my fist up and lashed out sleepily, whoever or whatever was in my fucking room would regret it! “Ooph Rubes!” I heard Jake's voice. And my heart drops, as I suddenly realised what I had done. Shit. I had forgotten. How terrible am I?! I quickly sit up, I’m most definitely awake now! “Oh Guapo, I am so sorry, are you ok?!” I look down at him, he is holding his face. Did I punch his face? “Was I that bad last night that I deserve a black eye?!” he chuckles. “Or is just that I kept you awake most of the night?” I blushed, not wanting to admit to him I had forgotten I was in his bed. Admit I had forgotten we had marked and mated one another. That makes
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 101 - Jake
Woah… that was fucking mind-blowing! Literally… Every touch had felt amazing. I had thought of this moment for so long… Been wanting her for so long and the day had finally come, and it had been everything I had dreamt of and more… Every time we kissed, or touched, feeling myself inside of her… it truly was like we were meant to be. And then the moment we reached our peaks, I knew I didn't want to wait then, I had to mark her, my fangs had elongated, needing to bite her, give her my mark. I leant down and punctured the skin along the collar bone, where her neck meets it. The metallic taste of her blood hitting my tastebuds almost immediately, but it not being unpleasant. This was my mate. I was marking her! And I licked up the blood dripping on her skin, as she shivered at the contact. It added a whole other level of arousal. I truly don't think things could be more perfect. This girl had been made for me, of that I am certain. Then suddenly she was sinking her canines into
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 100 - Ruby
I have a feeling Jake was either unsure if this was what he wanted, or he was feeling a little more nervous than he wanted to let on. I was kind of hoping it was more the second of the two, which, in many ways, was quite sweet really. There is nothing wrong with being nervous. Hell, I am nervous. It has been a long time since I have been near a man. Well, the only man I had been near was Seb. And obviously, the quick fumble with Jake on Esme’s graduation. That has been my whole experience with men. So, far from vast. But I do find it incredibly sweet to think he may be a little on the nervous side about being with me, though the longer he took in the shower the more I was beginning to think it was more that he was simply beginning to question his whole decision. Until he came into the bedroom, half naked, still damp and a towel slung low around his hips. My poor eyes did not know where to look! So I avoided looking at all. I already have seen him in swim shorts at the lake and
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 99 - Jake
After watching Gabe's display of horrendous spy action, (Oh he was so far from being the next James Bond!) and dragging Ruby inside the house, we had sat talking for all of five minutes or so and I could not wait a moment longer. I literally stood up and said to her “Now, do I get to take my mate to bed, Miss Ruby? I have been waiting for quite some time for this I can’t lie…” And I truly wasn’t lying, it was something I had wanted for a long time, since before we knew we were mates. The fact we hadn’t actually done anything, and we were going to do this for the first time, as mates, was kinda special, without a doubt. So, as much as I have cursed fate lately, it seems fate truly did have a plan for me and my Rubes all along. I just want to make sure this is special for her, perfect... Ruby reaches for my hand, a shy smile on her face, as she looks up at me through her long, dark lashes. I have waited so long for this moment, I truly want it to be perfect. Make her feel amazin
