Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR: THEEMOTIONS
They were lonely and both needed closure.Each of them had bared his soul to the other, letting them see how naked they were, stripped shamelessly by their sorrows.Jayden released Alisa from his embrace, wiped his tears, and ran his hand through his hair, a bit angry that he had let himself be too emotional with Alisa and let her see his weakness, but his anger dissipated when he saw Alisa’s tears.“My apologies, Miss Grant. I did not intend to remind you of Johnny so much.” He used his thumbs to wipe her tears and looked into her eyes, genuinely sorry that he had hurt her with his tales. She looked back into his, wishing he could read past her eyes and into her very soul. She wished he knew that she wanted to mean more than just Miss Grant to him. She wanted all of his attention, love and care. She wanted to be the only woman in his present and wanted him to forget about his past. She wanted to heal his wounds and kiss the scars.More than anything, she wanted to be one with him,
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE: AT THE POND
The memory came alive in his headHe remembered his black paws in front of him as he watched through the bushes at the girl who had just come out of the water, naked and wet. He remembered watching because a kind of desire had come into his wolf body when he saw her.The kind of desire that had enveloped him the first time he saw Avana.Now, they were in the very same spots. He was where he stood in his wolf form that day, and she was standing just by the pond.He raised his eyes and looked at her, and in her, he saw Avana.A human Avana. Alisa’s white skin and Avana’s white fur.Alisa’s blue eyes and Avana’s blue before they mated.What he did not know was that Alisa could also recall the last time she had been here, standing face to face with a larger-than-life wolf that looked at her intensely. Somehow, she felt that Jayden was like that wolf. Both were bold and strong and powerful and...He went back to her, his body feeling weaker with every step, drawn to her and held in place
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX: DYING AND LIVING
The speed Jayden drove to reach the hospital was faster than any he had driven at recently because he too wanted to see Johnny alive. It was like a miracle. Just that morning he had watched them pull the sheets over Johnny’s face. And now to see Johnny alive...He could feel his eyes sting. He had known the boy for a very short time and had even intended to kill him at a point, but now he felt a sort of close bond with Johnny.Maybe it was because he was beginning to love everything associated with Alisa.He drove into the hospital’s parking lot and ran out with her to find Johnny with an oxygen mask, taking deep breaths into his lungs. Alisa instantly burst into tears and kissed every part of him that his clothes did not.“You have always been a strong fighter, Johnny. For the third time you have won a battle against death.” She whispered after kissing his cheeks, her tears falling on his face.Everyone thought he had died till Stacy saw his hand twitch in the mortuary, and heard hi
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN: JOHNNY'S HATE
Johnny spent two more weeks recovering, and during this time he became quite popular in the hospital. The story of him going from being taken to the mortuary to coming back alive and slowly getting strong became popular among the patients, and he brought some sort of hope to some.He received flowers and cards everyday, and even meals too, which kept him distracted, but not so distracted to not notice that Stacy and Alisa were fighting a cold war. They did not come so close to each other anymore, almost like they were avoiding each other.In the meantime, his sister drew closer to Jayden, talking to him and laughing like a silly schoolgirl. Leaning into him all the time, so much so that his sister was practically beginning to live in the man’s arms.As to the bruises on his sister’s skin, Johnny had a pretty good guess.They were not there the night before he fell into his deep sleep, a sleep that he had desperately sought to wake up from because he hated how dark and black everything
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT: FIXING THINGS
Johnny was discharged two weeks later, and for some reason, Jayden insisted on driving them home in his expensive Mercedes Benz. He got his way as he was wont to, but when they reached home, it wasn’t what they knew.They had not been in it in almost a month, with Alisa spending most of her time at the hospital and sleeping in a near hotel with her clothes and bills sponsored by Jayden. Meals were also fully handled by him as they never really had any food at home, and so they expected it to be overgrown with weeds and dilapidated.But the house had been repainted, and for a moment Johnny asked if someone else had moved in or they had just gotten to the wrong house.Alisa was surprised too, but she had a hint as to what had happened.“Welcome home, Johnny.” Jayden smiled, turning to look at him in the back seat. “I had to do a little homecoming for you.”Johnny managed a smile. He did not like this and he still had not forgiven Jayden. They got out of the car and Jayden fell back and
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE: FORBIDDEN SEX
The problem with jealousy is that it is like a piece of hot coal. You may forget about it and ignore it, but if you unknowingly add fuel to it, it births a fire that could burn you.While Alisa thought she and Stacy were over everything, her friend did not feel the same. The love Alisa and Jayden shared was becoming stronger by the day, and anyone looking at him could tell he loved Alisa and adored Johnny. There was no question about it. Stacy had now been relegated to feeling like she was a little more than a friend by everyone, and even though she paid regular visits, Alisa never stopped speaking about Jayden in her presence. Little by little, her jealousy that had gone from a burning fire to hot ash was now slowly burning again.She had helped Alisa secure the contract but now she was losing her friend, and a man she would have had if she had applied for the contract she gave away was slipping through her fingers. It was even hard to not think about him because Alisa was always
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER FORTY: FULFILLMENT
Since the episode in the pond, Jayden and Alisa had not done so much as kiss each other. Alisa did not know why, but Jayden did.He alone knew he was not as human as other humans thought him to be. It had already taken him a lot to not bite or scratch Alisa as much as he wanted to, and to successfully hide himself as he morphed right behind her. He was not sure of how successful he would get this time.He had taken her out that night to watch the stars with her in his estate where they first met, and he knew he had no plans to have sex with her. All he wanted was a quiet soothing moment, and he wanted it with her.They sat together on the balcony of his roof, looking at the moon and basking in the moonlight."I love the moon so much, you know. It always feels like my parents are watching me from up there." Alisa started, moving her body close to Jayden's. She wanted him to cuddle her."My clan believes in a Moon Goddess. That's why the moon is important to me."Alisa turned to look a
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER FORTY-ONE: GOING AWRY
As he ejaculated, he also cut one of the makeshift bounds that had Alisa's hand tied to the bedposts, and that freed hand of hers was already reaching to take off the blindfold.He had not fully shifted back into his human body yet.In one long sprint, a moment before Alisa took the blindfold off, he jumped into the bathroom and locked the door after him.She heard him run but did not see him, and found it funny that he should run away like that, and she then untied her other hand and legs, wondering what trick Jayden was having up his sleeve for her.Maybe he wanted her to join him for a bath in the bathtub.She went to the door of the bathroom in the nude and called out to him."Jayden... Are you shy that I'll see you naked?" She laughed, trying to open the door, but it did not budge. She could hear him making strange sounds from inside too, something that sounded like the growl he made when they had sex in the pond."Jayden? Are you okay?" "Go away and leave me alone, Alisa." She

Her Beta's Heart EPILOGUE
TWENTY YEARS LATERIt still stunned Alisa that she was called the Mother of Wolves. You killed the one who killed the King, they told her when Jayden Christopher Wells breathed his last. He should have been King for winning the duel, but we had not honoured him yet when you killed him.Now she had three strong sons. Elliott Jr., who was now twenty-seven, Melissa and Elliott’s son Felix, whom she had adopted, and her third child.The one born because Elliott had deposited one last child in her before his death. For some reason, she had named him Jayden. The Jayden before him had had a good heart in his life but had let evil control him.So it was that Elliott’s son with Jayden’s name was the King of the Winter and the Spring in the end.The snow stopped when Jayden died, but it was known to fall from time to time, in its own season. Palm Springs City was no longer an all-spring city, but snow fell in it now.Humans were still oblivious to the wolves around them, even though the number
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ONE: THE RISE AND THE FALL
Alisa was close to jumping out of her skin when the cub wolf ran into her room.Its fur was black with streaks of white, but somehow she had recognised her son and was even more stunned to see him in a wolf form.Only...He ran off into the night and she had no choice but to follow, but not after throwing on a wolf skin cloak gifted to her by Elliott even though she had dreaded the wolf meetings. It did not worry her as much as the safety of her son did, so she followed, at least to keep him safe.But he was a wolf and she was a human, so she lost him and ended up wondering why she had followed him in the first place. She needed more protection than he did.He would have gone to the rock, she guessed, and Elliott would be there too. She had to be there, to see what was happening, so on and on she continued until she got to the rocks and saw even more wolves bigger than any she had ever seen at the Palm Springs meetings gathered at the foot of the rocks, all looking up.Atop the rocks,
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED: BATTLE OF THR ALPHAS
Elliott ran towards the rocks after he had morphed into his wolf form, rage coursing through his body and pushing him to run faster.He remembered something Melissa had told him long ago when he went to see her in Snowfall one last time. It was about being king. “The King of the Winter and the Spring.” She had said, but now he was not too sure if she had told him the truth.The howl. Another wolf was here to challenge him.He was more powerful than many wolves, Elliott knew, but he did not know another wolf with a howl so loud. And the snow in the distance too. What signs were these?The rocks loomed high in the distance, and Elliott could see the wolf atop. His challenger. The one with the howl. All the snow he had seen in the distance melted before him once his paws touched the ground, and the place was back to looking as though no snow had ever been there at all. Only a slick wetness remained to show.He soon came up the rocks, catching the scents of other wolves from the other sid
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER NINETY-NINE: THE ALPHA OF SNOWFALL
Jayden thought he would cry and fall to his knees when he saw Palm Springs City in the distance.The city was covered in darkness, a sheet of inky blue sky hanging above it, with yellow lights coming out of square windows. Behind him was the Moon, and it felt to him like a sign of favour from the Moon Goddess.He stopped at the border and took in a deep breath. For a moment, he doubted. He had returned home for vengeance, so he wondered why he felt the fear.Jayden took in a deep breath before he crossed the border gingerly as if expecting to have the ground swallow him when his paw touched the ground. But nothing happened for a moment and then...The wet loamy brown earth beneath his paw froze and small cracking sounds were made as ice covered the ground. He lifted his paw and there was ice under it. He was the Reincarnation of the long-dead Alpha of Snowfall, and now he had brought the snow with him to the city, a city that had never seen snow.His other paw touched the earth once a
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER NINETY-EIGHT: ONLY A MOMENT
They were back on his bed, both reaching their climax at the same time. Alisa’s eyes locked with his as their lips parted from one last kiss, and time seemed to stop for them. She could feel nothing but him inside her, could hear nothing but the sound of his heart beating for her, could taste nothing but his kisses on her lips, could see nothing that was not his eyes and could smell nothing but his scent. All her senses were connected to him, and only him. His finger brushed against the strands of her blonde hair slowly, smoothening it. “Where have you been, my love?” She heard him say softly, as though she was a pigeon in his hand. “How could you see me and not know me, when I have loved you for so many years and through so many lives? Did you forget me so easily?” For some reason she could not explain, she wanted to cry. “I am sorry.” She whispered in response, not knowing why she was sorry or what she was sorry for. All she knew was that she was sorry. “We have loved each ot
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER NINETY-SEVEN: THE NIGHT
Alisa was watching her son cradle his puppy to his chest and plant gentle kisses on its head. It had grown considerably these past two weeks, and though it was still little, she knew it was going to grow big and strong.And for some reason, the puppy reminded her of Elliott. There was a certain shyness it sometimes showed that reminded her of how he used to act when they were together in school, and a certain playfulness too. Elliott had shown neither of both qualities these past few years, but well...“Can I go out to play, Mummy?” Her son asked, interrupting her thoughts.The sun was setting for the evening, and a mild breeze blew as an orange glow lit up the sky. Fine weather, harmless for her boy. “Don’t stay out for too long.” She warned him, but he was far away before she was done talking, carrying his puppy with him. The house was quiet once Alisa was alone, and it made her sad. She was trying to be a strong woman, but that was exactly where it hurt. She was strong, but she
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER NINETY-SIX: KILLING AVANA
The farther away the wolves of Snowfall went from the beloved mountain they had lived all their lives on, led by their fiery leader with his unusually large form and bright blue eyes, almost bright enough to cast a blue shade on the floor, the lesser snow they found on the ground until all they saw was green, a new and uncomfortable sight to them as their paws and feet found it unfamiliar.They moved through the night, male and female, Beta, Omega, Luna, and cub, treading through the thick woods to avoid being spotted by humans and spending the daytime in caves or in hiding, taking the time to sleep. Hunts were done by night, with their leader Jayden bringing in the largest game, and for a pack where a man’s measure was by the size of his hunt, they could not entirely see any leader better than him.Yet, there was something sinister about him that they all feared. They had gone to sleep only to be woken by the most evil sound they had ever heard, and when they heard it once again, th
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER NINETY-FIVE: THE REVELATION
It was so strange that it had to be a dream. It could not be real.He was lying on the floor of whatever place this was, that somehow had form to it like a small cell. It was a strange place; bleak, dark and foreboding, with barely any light in it even though he could see the four corners at the top, and how he could see in it was a miracle to him.Jayden was now sure he was dreaming because this place was as dark as the darkest hour of the night.He tried to get up and that was when he saw the form of Melissa’s body in the darkness, lifeless and far gone, and the memories of the previous night began to come back to him in the dream. He stood frozen with his mouth open and watched her sprawled body and the blood that stained the walls of the cell. Her stomach had been torn open, and her innards were spilling out.“I did that,” Jayden whispered to himself.“We did it.” A voice in his head answered him back in another whisper, and the sound echoed all around him, as though it was spoken
Her Beta's Heart CHAPTER NINETY-FOUR: MELISSA'S DEATH
“For five hundred years, those of us in Snowfall have remained under the frozen chains of the curse. While you who live in Palm Springs City are slightly less wolf than we are, with your smaller bodies and more time for your little ones to learn to morph, we remain here in the snow, waiting for the curse to break so that we can get the sunshine our fathers dearly wanted.”“And with one King over you all, a King from Palm Springs City,” Jayden added. His body was relaxed now. There was no enormous power struggling to come from his body. Melissa’s words had calmed him down.“Yes. All we want is the sunshine, and a happy place for our children.”“I will lead you there. I was to be King, wasn’t I?”“You were to be King. But many times, fighting to get what is ours only takes it farther away from us. Don’t you think so?”Jayden said nothing in reply.“Do you remember the first blood you shed, Jayden?”It had been Alisa’s parents. He remembered it clearly.“You like to tell yourself you we
