Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY-SEVEN
Evvie's POV: "You sure about this?" Zachary's jaw clenched as his worried gaze roamed my body. My eyes moved from his chiseled chest to his handsome face, equally handsome as Alpha Logan, although the Alpha had features that made him look more intimidating. For instance, his jaw more defined, and his eyes dark as the pits of the abyss. I've never seen anything like it.Zachary here was more on the softer side, and his gentleman-like manners and kind face only accentuated his charm. Before I realized I was actually putting them both in comparison, something in me throbbed.I forced a smile, "Don't even think of going easy on me." Zachary looked at me, glancing only at Ethan when he spoke. "Try not to fall on your ass with this one," Ethan snorted, sending me wink.A smirk dropped on my lips. Turning to Zachary, he pretended to lower himself in a fighting stance, but I could see the hesitation in his eyes.Vana huffed, and if she were a human, I could have sworn I felt her roll her e

Evvie's POV:My whole body went stiff. I bit my lower lip and refused to turn around to face him."Evvie?" It was my brother's voice.Quickly glancing at their curious faces over my shoulder, I forced a grimace to make it look like I was in pain."Ah I really need to get to the bathroom!" I hissed, touching my lower back as if that would make them think I had a cramp or something.I could still see their curious gazes boring holes deep into me before I sprinted away. But it was Zach's gaze that bothered me.His eyes seemed calculating, and the moment his gaze landed on the tainted area on my neck, it felt as if he was stripping the bandage off with his deep, intense gaze.You could hear the tapping of my sneakers in the doorway of the bathroom. I didn't look back. I just sauntered in, locking myself in the cubicle before doing my business.When I opened the door, I expected an empty bathroom.But no. That was not gonna happen with Zachary's large frame standing right outside my cubicl

Evvie’s POV:He snarled threateningly, and he quickly shifted back his attention to Zachary. He had just gotten back to his feet when he launched at him, letting out one menacing snarl of his own.Their eyes both flashed to show their wolves. Zachary’s wolf was ready to pounce at the Alpha. He bared his teeth, canines elongating from them and claws descending, while Alpha Logan chose to display his dominance. His foreboding aura oozed off him in heavy waves, and I could see he was trying to use pure aura to make Zachary submit.Surprisingly, Zachary’s resolve weighs heavier than his rank. Not only did he not cower before the furious Blood Alpha known throughout all packs for his dominance and power, he snapped his teeth, growling at him.His wolf is almost at the surface.This is so not good. He just issued a challenge.It would anger the alpha wolf more. As soon as my eyes darted to Logan, I knew I was right. His wolf has fully risen to the surface as his eyes blazed with the color of

Evvie’s POV:What the hell was I thinking? Now how the hell am I supposed to take it back? Be his Luna? I don't even know the first thing on being a luna, much less an Alpha's mate! If this had happened to me five years ago, I might actually have wanted to.But things changed. I changed. I have no interest in becoming a Luna. So perhaps...Giving Zachary a chance would be better than becoming Alpha Logan's so-called Luna. At least in the former, I could still turn the tables around. But Alpha Logan... It would be an endeavor to escape someone like him.I groaned, and kicked a pebble stuck along the pavement when I saw it hit someone’s ankle.“Sorry,” I muttered and lifted my eyes to meet a pair of warm, melted honey.“Aubrey!”Finally, a friendly face.Her eyes lit up when she saw me.“Luna!” She smiled warmly, walking over.I couldn't help but feel a wave of relief wash over me at the sight of Aubrey. Her presence was a welcome distraction from the whirlwind of chaos I had just le

Evvie's POV:“You know,” Aubrey said softly, breaking the silence, “it’s not every day you see an Alpha and Beta going head-to-head like that."I chuckled. “Yeah, well, it’s not exactly what I had in mind for today.”"Being Luna..." Aubrey drew in a sigh, "You must be feeling pretty excited, huh?" She smiled widely, but I refused to meet her in the eye."Well..." I trailed off. "Not exactly."“Understandable,” she said with a sympathetic smile. “But you handled it well. It must have taken a lot of courage to step in and stop them.”I nodded, appreciating her words. “I’m just glad it didn’t escalate further. I don’t know what I would have done if things had gotten out of hand.”Aubrey leaned back, her gaze thoughtful. “It sounds like you’re under a lot of pressure. With everything that’s going on, it’s important to make sure you take care of yourself, too.”I sighed. “I know. It’s just… there’s so much to deal with right now. Between the challenges and the pack politics, it feels overwh

Evvie's POV:The weight of the day felt heavier with each passing second.I tried to distract myself, allowing the silence to seep into my mind. But I still couldn’t sleep. My thoughts kept drifting back to Zachary. Our history was one thing that haunted me constantly, and the thought of him being in my life again... It just felt so abrupt.‘I wonder who’s to blame.” Vana muttered, and I mentally send her a glare.‘I don’t see you trying to get us out of the situation.’ I huffed.‘Why should we? In the first place, he’s our mate.’ She purred, and sometimes I just wished the moon goddess added some kind of button so I could shut her off.Right now, she isn’t helping.All my wolf had been whining about was him. Even my dreams were filled of his annoyingly handsome face, carved by the gods. He haunts me everywhere, which was why while I can’t fall into sleep, I was grateful.‘You can’t lie to me, Evvie.” Vana grunted.Ignoring her, I decided to take a walk to clear my mind. I strolled thr

Evvie’s POV:It’s cold. The midnight breeze whispering as I ran aimlessly through the dark forest, branches scratching against my fur. I felt the damp earth beneath my paws, each step a futile attempt to outrun the chaos of my emotions. Tears pooled around my eyes, warming my cheeks as they streamed like waterfalls down my cheeks.My heart throbbed. It has never done that. After all these years…Why now?I let out a scream converted into a howl by my wolf, Vana, who helped me through the mixed emotions spiraling inside me. I don’t know what has gotten into me.I should have expected this, shouldn’t I?Yet, seeing Zachary and Brenda together with her pup broke me, in ways I never thought was possible.I moved on. At least that’s what I thought.I mean, I dated a man for goddess’ sake! Barrak and I were together for a year before we agreed things just wouldn’t work out between us.How was I supposed to know that seeing him face-to-face, as one, happy family, would affect me immensely?V

Logan’s POV: I was dreaming again, caught in the haze of memories that haunted me every night. The scent of jasmine filled the air, and I found myself back in the forest, under the moonlight. Makayla stood before me, her eyes glinting with that familiar mix of mischief and malice. "I love you, Logan," she whispered, her voice a seductive melody that had made my heart race once too many times. I reached out, desperate to hold onto the feeling of love and trust, but as my fingers brushed her cheek, she faded away, replaced by the cold, empty darkness. Betrayal stung deep, a wound that hadn't fully healed. Mayakla had been my chosen mate, and her betrayal had left scars I didn't want to admit to. In the dream, the scene shifted, and I saw her with another pack, with another alpha who gripped her waist with a smug look on his pathetic face. It appalled me, how her loyalty shifted without a second thought. She was once my world. My everything. Her eyes, once so warm and inviting, now l

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
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FIFTY
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
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-NINE
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
Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
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
