Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO
Evvie’s POV:“I accept,” I said, my voice steady and unwavering.Leona’s smile widened, but there was a glint of satisfaction in her eyes that made my skin crawl. “Excellent. We’ll see just how worthy you really are.” And with a fake smile, she flicked her eyes back to Alpha Logan beside me.“I would like to set the trial for next week. Until then,” she slowly moved her eyes to look at me mischievously.“She can prepare herself accordingly.”Logan’s hand tightened into a fist on the table, but he remained silent. I knew this was as much a test for him as it was for me. He was letting me prove myself, but it was clear he wasn’t entirely comfortable with the idea.As breakfast continued, the tension only grew thicker, each bite a reminder of what had just been set. I didn’t know what Leona was thinking, because we had an agreement. I meant to talk to her about that, but I could feel her anger was seething. And it was directed entirely towards me.But I knew one thing for certain—I wasn’

Logan’s POV:With the way these omegas are staring at me right now as I stormed towards Leona’s chambers, I could easily tell a dark cloud has taken loomed onto my face.Some whimpered, baring their necks to me in submission as I passed, making me groan.I was too pissed to notice I had let my Alpha aura wash over the entire building. For goddess’ sake, I couldn’t bring myself to suppress it.Instead, I continued to march towards her room, sensing her presence. Oh she’s there alright.Shoving the door so hard it swung against the wall with a startling bang, I walked into the room.My eyes fall on Leona, who is presently sprawled on the bed in her gold silk nightgown. She was lying on her back, facing the ceiling with her one thigh lifted and the other resting on the bed. It was a sexy position, and the way dressed revealed all of her skin except the parts covered by her underwear. Slowly, she lifted her eyes to

Logan’s POV:I led Evvie away from the training grounds, our fingers intertwined. I was surprised she did not resist me when I did, and I was glad.Our steps were slow as we walked through the pack's territory. The cool breeze felt refreshing, and I noticed Evvie seemed to relax a little as we got farther from the noise created in the pack training grounds.She was quiet, her mind clearly still occupied, but I could see the curiosity in her eyes as she glanced at me every now and then.I wanted to surprise her. Wanted to show her a part of me I never showed anyone before. Besides, that way I could give her something to focus on other than the upcoming trial and intense training she had to take.As Evvie and I strolled through the forest, the wind rustling the leaves around us, I couldn’t help but steal glances at her.I admired her strength, but I also knew when someone was teetering on the edge of exhaustion. She needed a break,

Evvie’s POV:Alpha Logan, or should I say, Logan, walked with me back to the packhouse. Each time his skin grazes against mine, sparks erupt from the area he had touched.He insisted he hold my hand, and I knew it was no use to retort. As dark and tough he looks on the outside, he acts like a stubborn child when he wants physical touch. That much I learned when he took me on a litte tour in his village.Vana was all for it. Oh she loved every second of…Would you call that a date?Actually, yes. I haven’t got into a date ever since Barrak. I took a break from relationships and focused on my job.Well, until he showed up.Alpha Logan Reed. The Blood Alpha rumored to have invaded almost all of the packs in the States. Yet, I hadn’t expected him to show a side of him no one would even think he possessed. The caring, thoughtful side that genuinely wanted to create peace and unity among packs. He didn’t just invade them to impose his authority and dominance. No, it was much more than that.

CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIXEvvie’s POV:My eyes fluttered open the next morning. My body ached, especially down the depths of my core.I came for about five times last night. I haven’t noticed the time or bothered to check when I finished fantasizing about the dark alpha in my midst.Knowing his room is just beside mine made me ache even more, because I knew no matter how I wanted him, craved him, I couldn’t let him know.Today is my last day of training.Tomorrow, the trials will officially start. Leona has been walking around glaring daggers at me, and every so often I could feel her eyes digging holes at the back of my head in the training grounds.I guess she expected me to run for it when I still had time. A smirk curled at my lips.She started this, and I am going to put an end to it.I made my way to the training grounds.I was rather early. The cool morning air still crisp with the scent of pine and earth.So, I prepared myself for another grueling session when I felt a dark presence

EVVIE’S POV:There was a knock on my door the next morning. Opening it, I see one of the omegas standing hesitantly in the doorway.“Luna,” she began, her voice trembling slightly.“Leona has requested your presence in the training grounds.”So it begins.I nodded, squaring my shoulders.“Tell her I’ll be there.”The omega bowed her head and quickly made her exit.I moved fast, taking a shower and slipping on whatever was comfortable before I thrust myself in battle.Looking at my reflection in the mirror, my silver eyes gleamed brightly under the sunlight. My jet black hair was cut short stopping at my shoulders, but they were curled in a way that makes it look as if I style them everyday. I don’t. And maybe that’s why I let Pixie perform her magic when she asked me to let her perm it.How I missed those guys.In this pack, I have struggled underneath the watchful gaze of the Blood Alpha all alone. But this week, with Logan showing me his intentions, I honestly felt… safe.He told me

CHAPTER EIGHTY-EIGHTEvvie’s POV:“Look out!”Whipping my head, I was an inch away from Zachary’s fist before I quickly dodged him.I shook the memories away, trying to regain focus.This is different. This is real.I blocked his next punch and twisted, using his momentum against him. Zachary stumbled, and I took the opportunity to sweep his legs out from under him. He hit the ground hard, and I was on him in an instant, pinning him down.“Yield,” I demanded, my voice low and firm.He looked up at me, and I thought I saw his eyes soften. Just when I thought he was going to give in, a flicker of resolve hardened in his gaze, and he twisted beneath me, knocking me off balance. We both scrambled to our feet, breathing heavily.This wasn’t just a fight—it was a dance, a brutal, beautiful dance. Every move, every strike, was a conversation between us.Zachary charged at me again, but this time I was ready. I sidestepped his attack, grabbing his arm and twisting it behind his back. He groan

CHAPTER EIGHTY-NINEEvvie’s POV:Logan’s lingering touch sent shivers through me I cannot deny. And the adrenaline from my fight with Zachary was still pulsing through my veins as I left the ring. The cheers from the crowd had faded, and now all I could hear is the steady rhythm of my own heartbeat in my eardrums.I know this is just the beginning, but for a brief moment, I allowed myself to feel a flicker of triumph.Yet as soon as my eyes locked with Leona’s smug ones, that flicker slowly decided to die down.She stood rooted to the ground, and although her lips were tightly sealed, her eyes told me everything I needed to know.She is not finished with me, not by a long shot.I could feel Logan’s presence beside me as we walked back toward the main house. His hand slipped into my own, as if he wanted to remind me again and again that I was not alone in this.Not that I am afraid. I just feel a bit odd.As Logan and I walked side by side, I could feel several eyes of several pack mem

E P I L O G U E .Casey's POVI fell for it. It's his fault, with those sparkling puppy eyes and cute little stance, I have turned completely vulnerable.But I didn't fall for it because I badly wanted him to apologize but because he looked serious. Like he really wanted to show me something. The reason why he went missing for hours. I tapped my heel, raising an eyebrow at his human state. I look around. There was no one here. Why are we here?“Well? What is it?” I asked, looking at him.He smiled, making me groan. Him and his damn smile makes me both feeling nauseous and weak in the knees.“I want you to meet someone,” he finally said.I furrowed my eyebrows. Meet someone?He pulled my hand, turning me around to face a…“A pile of rocks?” My eyebrow raised higher, staring at him weirdly.He chuckled and shook his head.“This is my dad’s grave. I buried him here.”Shocked, I turn to him with eyes as wide as bowling balls.“You… your dad? Oh Carlos, I’m so sorry.” For the second tim

Casey's POVKnock. Knock.I looked towards the door, my lips pressing into a thin line."Come in!" The door pushed open.As always, Evvie and Pixie walked inside the room. Their eyes widened, bigger than bowling balls, and their jaws dropped, gaping at me.I raised an eyebrow. "What? Is it bad?" I asked, casting a worried look to my dress as I smoothed it down."Are you kidding?" Pixie was the first to speak, as Evvie was still in a trance."You look amazing!" She beamed.I smiled."Absolutely gorgeous." Evvie nodded in agreement, snapping out of her trance.A wide grin spread on my face. "Thank you," I sighed, turning back to the mirror. "Is something wrong?" Pixie steps forward, a worried look on her face.For the nth time, I let out a sigh. "What if...this was a mistake? What if I'm not ready for this? What i--" "You stop that right now, my lady." Pixie marched forward, taking my wrists and gripping them firmly. "You are not going to your wedding with all those ridiculous though

Casey's POVThe Alpha led the way, and I followed closely behind him. Right now, we're back at the dungeons. The cells. How the hell did he get himself locked up back in here? He agreed to do the mission in exchange for freedom. I sighed."Just so you know, I didn't want to do this." The Alpha muttered.I nodded, but didn't speak."I had no choice. He was getting out of control." "But to put him back in that cell?" I snapped. I couldn't close my damn mouth to save my life. The Alpha stopped in his tracks, twirling on his heel to face me. The look in his eyes now is deadly."Listen, girl. This is also out of my control. I can't control him.""Why?"His eyes narrowed at me."You're the alpha." I added.He squinted at me before he sighed. He shook his head. "Not everything is as simple as you think." I tilted my head. I wondered what he meant by that when a guard rushed over to us."Alpha, he's losing it!" The man was panting, his eyes wide."Sedate him." I snapped my eyes to the Al

CHAPTER FORTY-NINECasey's POV"Hey, hey, sshhhh..." I could hear someone shushing me. I try to move. Try to get up. But my body was killing me. "Argh..." I groan, peeling my eyes open. It was Nita, staring at me right in the face.I knit my brows. "What are you doing here? I mean, what am I doing here?""It's okay. You're safe now." What is she talking about? I winced when a searing pain swept right through me as I tried to move. My mind was in a haze. Blinking, I take in my surroundings. I'm in a white room. Everything was white and the air smelt strongy of disinfectant, alcohol, and... blood?Then it snapped. The witch. Sorcerer or whatever. Lucas. Rogues. The kids. My breath hitched in my throat.Carlos. Oh, my god."Carlos!" I vaguely remember seeing his wolf breathing hard on the ground. Blood oozing off his stomach. I remember him taking the hit, when Lucas tried to pierce me with his magical glowing weapon. And then I remember... a whimper. His wolf, whimpering as he laye
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT
CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHTBrother...I didn't hear it wrong, did I? Yet, when his gaze flicked to me I saw the striking resemblance between them. There is no mistaking it.He's the little brother Carlos told me about. But I thought he said he died. Clearly, that was not the case at all.He's here, alive. And it's either he happens to be here or he is one of the rogues. And by the looks of it, he is one of them.Carlos stared at him all the time, and his hands were shaking. I could hear his heartbeat racing. The way he swallowed when he saw him for the first time. Some of the trackers behind me growled, but Carlos held up his hand in warning. Not to take action. That he had this under control.'Get the children to safety. I will deal with this.' He sent the message through the group link. All of us just froze.'Now!' The warning in his voice has become a real threat. It had everyone jolting up to go to move the children to safety. I, however, stayed in my spot unmoving.Something's not righ
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN
CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN Carlos’ POV Is it him? Is it really him? I can’t believe it. Even Vato became dead silent. Is it really our little brother? But that’s impossible. He died, years ago. I saw it happen with my own eyes. I stare gobsmacked at the man. His eyes were coral blue, something he’d gotten from our mother. His hair, jet black slicked back just like mine. He even has that same birthmark I remember him having as a child. I tried moving my lips, but they’re frozen as ice. “Lucas?” He smiled at Casey, but something about his expression felt different. Then he whips his gaze to me. Suddenly, he drops it. His eyes darkened, and I felt my blood run cold. TWENTY YEARS AGO… Blood. The air around me is filled with blood. Most belonging to my Dad, who had dropped dead on the ground before me. “Hmm,” I hear a rumbling sound. As I turn my head slowly, I realize I needed to look up to clash eyes with the figure I saw kill my Dad. My eyes raised, and my breath hit
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-SIX
CHAPTER FORTY-SIX Casey’s POVA strong roar ripped from my chest. It was Kaleesa. Pure rage surged through my veins, consuming every rational thought I had. The world blurred, the trees, the warehouse, everything fading as my vision tunneled in on the rogue.I launched forward, claws out, fangs bared. I could hear Carlos yelling my name behind me, but it was drowned out by the blood pounding in my ears. His warning had come too late. Rage had taken over, and I had no plans to stop.I barely felt the ground beneath me as I sprinted toward the rogue who’d kicked the child. He never even saw me coming. My claws tore through his back before he could react, a satisfying crunch of bone under my hands. He crumpled to the floor, and the child scrambled away, eyes wide with terror. The scent of blood filled my nostrils, but it wasn’t enough. I wanted more.Another rogue lunged at me from the side. I spun, grabbing him mid-air, slamming him into the ground with enough force to crack the concre

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVECasey’s POVLast night was horrific. I didn’t sleep at all. I don’t know what has gotten into me last night, but I now know I have gone too far.When Carlos stepped back, shoving me away in the process, shame washed over me like a bucket of ice cold water.He looked at me as if I had grown two heads, all because I tried to kiss him, which I now know was a mistake. I thought he wanted to. It turns out I thought wrong.I went too far, and he was not having it. He didn’t want me. He made that crystal clear from the very beginning, but still, I insisted. I have never felt so embarrassed in my entire life.It’s the third time he rejected me. The third time.How could I have been so stupid?I should have accepted his rejection, if I only knew it would be this painful the third time.Tears rolled down my cheeks as I turned around and ran off. I could hear him calling after me, but I never looked back.Danny tried to get it out of me a thousand times this morning. Each time

CHAPTER FORTY-FOURCasey’s POV“What?” the question falls out of my lips before I could even stop it.Carlos’ eyes remain trained on me, neither of us willing to look away.He lets out a soft chuckle that makes my heart melt. “To be honest, I really don’t know either,”He leans back, shifting all his weight onto his hands as he plants them on the cold ground.Then he turns his head and looks at me in the eye with those damned, beautiful violet eyes. “There’s something about you, something I didn’t want to acknowledge.”My brow raised at him, “And what is that?”He smiled. That goddamn dazzling, devious smile that has me gawking at him in awe.“Sorry, but it’s my little secret, since, I gave you my only one,” he said, and winked at me.Heat immediately rushed to my face, and I feel my chest flush, making me want to cover myself tighter if only I didn’t feel so hot.“But hey, looks like I’m not the only one,” he said, his tone turning serious.I looked up at him and narrowed my eyes.Wh
