Beta Before An Alpha CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT
Evvie’s POV:The sound of my phone buzzing made me stir awake as I extended my hand to grab my phone under my pillow. I was half-asleep when I answered, pressing the phone against my ear with my eyes still shut.“Hello?” I greeted in a groggy voice.“Hey sleepyhead,” Pixie.“Goddess, do you know what time it is?” I asked, groaning.“Girl, you tell me.” She giggled and I groaned, forcing one eye open to look at the time above my screen.“Fuck!” I hissed. My head instantly jolting up from my comfy pillow as I glared at the screen.Pixie snorted whilst I plopped my head back down.“Can’t blame me. This is when I normally wake up.” Working night shifts as one of the elite warriors on the hunt? Yeah, waking up at exactly 12 noon became my norm.“Where’s Casey?” I asked, rubbing my eyes.“She’s in her room. Typing away as always.”“Right.”“What time did you arrive?” she asked.“Around four p.m. yesterday, I think. Why?”“I suppose you’ve already reunited with… that guy?”“Who?”It took me

Logan’s POV:When my mate rejected the pack, I knew she just made the biggest mistake in her life.“So…” Carlos started as he leaned against the wall in my office whilst I sat back in my chair.“Why did you let her do it?”“Do what?” I asked, acting clueless.“Renounce the pack. You know what that would do to her wolf.” Carlos thought I wouldn’t notice it. But his furrowed brows and tense muscles easily gave him away.“Since when did you concern yourself with a woman?” I asked calmly.“Since I found out she’s going to be my luna!” He snapped.“She’ll come back.”I know it.“The consequences would be severe.” Carlos added, letting out a breath.“Which is why she has no choice.” I smirked. Just then, a knock came on my door. And the scent of strawberries and roses invaded my nose instantly, making my mouth water.I nodded at Carlos who pushed himself off the wall, opening the door.“Alpha.” Marcus, the former Gamma of this Pack, walked in with his daughter by his side.My lips tugged u

Evvie’s POV:Barrak was right. He’s always right.After walking out of the pack house, I barreled towards Ethan’s truck. Slipping into the driver’s seat, I ditched the keys and triggered the ignition using the wires. It was one of the many things we rogues developed as a skill. My heart thundered in my chest as I reversed, accidentally bumping into a flashy red mustang parked out front. Ignoring a pair of dark eyes boring holes into my back, I punched the gas and drove off.Angry tears threatened to spill out but I fought them back.“Mates are so fucking overrated.” Barrak’s voice flitted through my head.Barrak was right. He’s always right. I thought to myself, and my mind just drifted off.TWO YEARS AGOIt was one of those days. We just finished training under Barrak’s watch. It was just me and him in the locker room.Pixie wasn’t feeling well, so she told me she was heading back first. I had offered to accompany her on the way in case she fainted, but she refused, leaving me alone

Logan’s POV:“Are you going to tell me why the fuck my mate is tied up in a chair and knocked out?” I growled, letting my aura slip out.Carlos barely winced, but he staggered back and hit his back against the wall.“Calm down, Alpha, I can explain.” He said, holding his hands up in an attempt to tame the seething beast inside me.Against my wolf’s wishes to tear our beta into pieces, I withdrew my aura, taking in deep, slow breaths as I closed my eyes to silence my raging wolf.“You let our mate go. I don’t like it,” Tristan grumbled nastily in my head.He was right, and I was about to as soon as Carlos tells me what the fuck was going on his head.My wolf growled again. The sound echoing strongly across the four walls in this empty room in the basement of the pack house. I had no idea why my beta brought her here, but there was one thing I was sure of. He is going to suffer severe consequences way worse than the kick she’d managed to land to his balls.Besides, I couldn’t bear to wa

Evvie’s POV:If there’s one thing I absolutely hate the most, it is the idea of being forced into anything.I growled, my voice dripping with venom as I huffed in frustration.“Is he fucking sick in the head?” I lashed out at no one in particular.I could feel my blood boil as I recalled the smug look on his face when he looked down at me.Fucking coward.“Or he’s just pissed.” Vana butted in my thoughts, making me huff at her.“If anyone should be pissed, that would be me.” I hissed.I could feel Vana walking in circles in my head and my eyes roll.Couldn’t she stop purring for one minute?“Well, you did call the Blood Alpha a coward.”I scoffed at her. “Excuse me, whose side are you on?”“Oops. Gotta run.” She snickered and suddenly backed off.And I wondered where the fuck does a wolf in my head could possibly run off to.Leaving Vana alone, I returned my attention to my surroundings.I had never been to this area of the pack house before. Most of the times I came here had been whe

Evvie’s POV:I stifled a laugh as the beta got up, avoiding my gaze at all costs as he marched his way towards the door. He did not stop to so much as look at me, ignoring me as I called after him.“Where are you going? Come back!”He turned a deaf ear, slamming the door then locking it.When I knew I was alone, I didn’t bother to fight the snicker tickling the back of my throat.“How rude.” My wolf commented, and I rolled my eyes at her.“Come on. It was funny though, right?” I taunted, but her silence told me she wasn’t on my side.“Party pooper.” I mumbled, which finally triggered a reaction from her as she released a low growl.I felt my wolf take her leave, again withdrawing to the back of my mind.I let my gaze drop to the tray scattered on the floor. Scanning the area, I searched for the fork I purposely threw somewhere close while I used my mouth. I found it lying on the floor two meters away from my side.A grin crawled to my lips before I began shoving my body against the ar

Evvie’s POV:“I’ll be waiting.” I mimicked his voice, dropping my own to match his husky tone. My eyes rolled to the back of my head, making a face, while my wolf huffed.“I super dislike it when you mock our mate.” I knew if Vana was a being outside my own, she’d be huffing and pinning me now with a look of disapproval.“Hush, I’m in no mood.” I growled lowly, and she grunted but says nothing more as she retreats to the back of my head.Clenching my teeth, I couldn’t seem to look at anything else but at the door where he came and left. My eyes burning with anger as I glared holes through it.That one night we shared together had been too short for me to realize what kind of person Alpha Logan was in reality.And for a period of time, I often doubted Barrak’s stories about the man. His past, his sins, his greed and need for power and control over everything he touches.“That night, you begged me to mark you,” his voice, although too fucking sexy not to notice, echoed in my head with a

Logan’s POV:TWO HOURS EARLIER“Any news about that missing link?” I asked Carlos, who is leaning against the wall in my office with his arms crossed.He shook his head.Sighing, I sat back in my swivel chair across a thick pile of papers I needed to go over and be done with by tonight.However, the escape of one of the inmates I imprisoned five years ago was making it nearly impossible to focus.I groaned, rubbing my temples with my fingers when I heard my wolf, Tristan, growl.“How could they let this happen?” He was livid, that I could tell.I looked at my beta. His eyes were focused on something else, making me squint at him.“What’s going on with you?” I asked, and his distant gaze snapped to me before he blinked.“Nothing. It’s aching again.” He replied, clearing his throat but I doubt that was the case.Still, I cannot believe he’d let himself be taken out by a woman. I smirked, feeling proud as I envisioned what that scene would look like.My eyes wander to the clock hanging o

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

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

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
