Tricked By A Beta

last update Last Updated: 2024-03-03 04:54:06

After sitting with Kellan and talking, Beta Yori guided me back to my room, and I fell asleep instantly as soon as my head hit the pillow.

I'm tired. Having no wolf is a disadvantage; the other contestants don't seem to tire quickly; I do.

Waking, I had breakfast like I do every morning with the contestants. Then, I went into the kitchen and began to cook with Rowan. I say with, but the most she has done is mix or measure the ingredients.

When she tried making the casings for the mini pies, they were odd and misshaped, and some were inedible because of their size.

Still, she is helping; her fashion knowledge has been vital to this event.

Sage, Aurora, Astrid, and Selene are with us in the kitchen. We also have guards and maids stationed around the kitchen. I feel that it is more to protect the king.

They are watching our every movement, so do they fear one of the contestants might purposely poison him? Then again, the way he's acted kind of makes him deserve it. I push the thought awa

    KellanI stand with Darius, but not really paying any attention. So far, the food has been bad or okay. We've only done two tables, so nothing can get worse. I hope.I'm sure Elara should be out by now."Find her." Darius looks at Beta William. "If she isn't here soon, she gets no points. That sabotages Rowan.""I'll help." I go to walk away, and he stops me. "What? I will still taste them all, give me five minutes, and I will be back. Enjoy your conversation." Turning, I rush through, going to her room. It's empty. She's got her dress on.So she got ready to leave? Turning, I walk out and look into the other contestant's rooms. I glance outside to check, but she still isn't there. Darius is still at the same table, talking with the guests.Moving, we go through the corridors."Elara!" Fuck sake, did she honestly get lost? I laugh at the thought. I hear banging and turn. Walking towards it, stopping at the door, I see the key in the lock.Unlocking the door, I opened it and saw her. S

    I haven't seen Kellan. Then again, May explained that he is ensuring all traces of nuts have gone. It's clear he cares for Darius, as none of the guests had realised there were nuts on the food.As I go to step into the room, a hand stops me."I need to know what happened." Kellan looks at me."Someone called Beta Nova told me I was late and meant to meet in that room. He pushed me in and locked the door."Nova? Are you sure you heard them right?""Yes, Kellan, he said his name was Nova.""Then how did your dress get ripped and your hair a mess?" I open my mouth to reply, and the producer appears next to us. He smiles and walks around and into the room."I'm confused as to why he is still here?""Better the devil, you know." I glance at him, confused. "He's worked with the family for over twenty years. To replace him now means taking a risk. We have no idea if the person who replaces him will be any better. We can at least control what he releases, or Darius can anyway."That makes se

    I consider it and consider the fact that Draven did add me to the deal. That night with Ethan made him agree. Did he only agree because I was made part of the deal?“Hey.” I feel him grip my chin and force me to look at him. “Please breathe.”I laugh slightly. Breathing is about the only thing I have control over in my life.“I can’t leave here without my wolf.” I feel like I’m dead. His words are correct; Draven and Ethan made a deal, which included me. I know about the wolves, and I feel like Draven isn’t alone in it, but Ethan is also.They don’t want me out of the competition. They want me dead before I speak. Telling Darius about my mark that alone could have me killed. I went against Darius' word.I lied to the king. I'm still lying to him. Everything they are doing forces me to hide and lie, which Darius knows I am. If he was like his dad, I would have been killed instantly for lying on the form.Yet I'm stuck. Darius can't save me; he might be able to take down Draven and even

    Aurora's scream deafens us all. Darius stands wide-eyed and shocked. William is trying to speak to explain why, but he's silenced by her screams and the chatter of the producer and his crew.They keep zooming in between Aurora and Darius, and now I'm wondering if something happened after we left that room. I'm too busy trying to work this out to notice she turns and lunges for me.I realise the moment I'm thrown to the floor with her on top of me. Sage pulls her back, and I jump up. William continues trying to call everyone's attention but fails.Aurora breaks out of Sage's hold and lunges for me again, and that's when I see the knife. I don't get a chance to move or do anything. All I can do is ready myself for the pain.It happens almost in slow motion, and everything goes silent. One minute, she has the knife inches from my neck, and the next, a wolf is pinning her down and another in front of me. My body barely moves. It just shakes.I was dead. There is no denying it. I was dead.

    KellanShe stands, still staring at the picture like she doesn't recognise herself. It's crazy. I open the door and pull her in so she stands before the mirrors."The change since the day you arrived up to today is enormous. It shows how small things can impact a body's appearance," I remember the day she came. Her eyes were dull, and her hair looked like there was no life in it.She was withdrawn and thin, with black under her eyes from tiredness, not to mention the collage of bruises that were across her body.Now, her hair is bright and vibrant. You can actually see the colour, the orange, but with small streaks of natural blond through it, something I've never seen.Her eyes are bright, and her whole complexion has changed."I can't remember ever looking like this." She glances at me. "It almost looks like an entirely different person."She's right. "It's strange. Had you walked in and looked like this, no one would have known you were sold and a slave. People would have seen you

    He looks at me, waiting."I was young, maybe like four. It's my first memory, and it's not really strong. I remember the pain and how different and alone I felt after.""Anything you can remember? Were you in a normal room, on a chair?" He looks at me."I was on a chair. Alpha Draven held me down. We weren't at home. It was an unusual place; I've only been there twice. The first time, I remember a woman using magic to take my wolf. I was screaming, but they didn't stop. I passed out eventually, too tired from losing the wolf and woke up back home.""Sorry, no one should experience that, especially not a fucking child with no choice. I know people sell their wolves, but doing it to a child is wrong."I nod at his words."You said you had been twice?" He looks at me confused, wondering why I would go twice."I was about thirteen. Apparently, they needed a cleaner last minute, so it was me. I was older, and I saw things." I shrug slightly."Did you see where it was?""No, I was blindfold

    I woke with my body wrapped around Kellan. I never slept as well as I had last night. Something about knowing he was close by helped me settle more.It was five, and as promised, Kellan had Beta Yori escort me to my room. Outside stood another Beta.Beta Yori introduced him as Beta Ash. Apparently, Ash is one below him, and Kellan has insisted he always stays outside my room.From what Yori said, Kellan seems to think I don't feel safe in my room, so Ash is there to ensure I am. It made no sense. We were all given a Beta when we arrived. Yet Yori insisted that they were purely for significant events and such and were prohibited from entering this hallway.So, Kellan has given me one of his Betas that he feels he can trust. Is this because of the one who came and led me to the room? Nova? That he warned me I needed to sort it out today.Once I'm ready, I walk down and join the others for breakfast. The room is usually quiet today. I don't think all the drama was from Aurora, yet it's a

    The room is silent, and I need to figure out if Darius knows."Are there any other pictures?" I glance at him, trying to see if he knows. He is calm, though; surely he wouldn't be if Luca had put that picture in his room.It shows I'm marked and claimed, so maybe he didn't? Maybe Luca is set to make me look bad by making me lie?"No, this is everyone." Darius sits confused. "What did he look like?" He looks at me. I sense he thinks I'm lying. To what? Cover that I went into Kellan's office, locked myself in and magically put the key on the outside?"He was about five eight, blond hair, green eyes. He was about 200 lbs, and he had a scar at the side of his eye.""So he was real then." I laugh at his words."No, I dreamt him, walked into that room, locked myself in, magically put the key outside, attacked myself and waited to be rescued.""I didn't mean it how it sounded. Had someone used magic to mask their appearance, there wouldn't have been a scar.""Oh. Sorry." How am I still alive

    Asher POVI look down at Katla. She's only a few days old. After speaking with Zyra, she decided that the space in the mountains would be a retreat—a place for us to escape to, somewhere Katla could get used to what it is like to live in the Dragon Kingdom.We have spent a few days there, but not many. Apparently, she wants to be in the palace close to the others. Part of me feels like that's because they were her support while I was hiding away.It's shown her what having a family around can do. We're close, minus Aurelia. She seems to be thriving with the Bears and keeping her distance. Other than returning that day when I was going crazy and needed help, she rarely came back. We've adjusted and got used to that, however.She wants her life away from here; she wants her own life, not one that is connected to us. She should have that if she wants it."Hey."Turning, I see Elijah walk to me.He laughs slightly and takes Katla from my arms. "You look exhausted; fun night?"It's only 4

    Asher POVI walk out of the room and go to where I know they will be. As I step into the office, they turn to face me.Darius shakes his head. "You should be with Zyra.""I was, but considering this is brought on by the Dragons, I should be helping." I walk further in and look at the papers."Nothing to help with," my dad shrugs. "His son is clean, Seraphine can tell. Things were explained to him. He had no idea about the arranged marriage and, to be honest, was shocked, as he apparently had a mate."So the son won't be an issue. Is that what he's saying?"Look, both Eliphas and Durnalin are in the cells, away from each other. The son has gone. Apparently, he has a whole life with his mate. His dad told him the dragons had requested their presence at events." Darius explains.It makes no sense, though. "Why? Why would the dragons want the warlocks there?" How didn't his son question it?"Apparently, because Eliphas and his son are the strongest warlocks, they invited them to make a un

    Asher POVI wait and watch."Prince Asher, soon to be King, tell me something." He walks to the bars and leans against them. "Where do Warlocks belong?"My head tilts; they belong wherever they want to. I don't understand his question."See, there is no answer as we don't belong anywhere. There is the werewolf kingdom, fae, dragons and everything else. Witches and warlocks are forced to live in one of those kingdoms, with no real power."So this was all about getting power? My body is pushed back, and my eyes widen as I see King Drakon reach through the bars—his hand clamps around Eliphas' neck.I guess he's fixed, and his curse is gone. My dad and Darius drag him away, and I watch Eliphas drop to the floor, clutching his neck. The blood runs down from where King Drakon's nails dug in."We need answers; killing him won't get them." My dad turns and faces Eliphas."Apparently, this was all for power." Which still makes no sense."It wasn't just for power. We wanted our own kingdom, our

    Asher POVI'm anxious. It's been two days since the curse was lifted, and I'm glad to be back to normal. All that is at risk, though. Tonight, I have to be close to whoever is pretending to be King Drakon. That then risks it happening again, and if it does, will it start slow again or begin where it was removed?I've noticed Elijah, Storm, and Aurelia are quiet. Whatever was done has worn them out, which I didn't want."Are you ready?" Zyra hugs me, and I nod. I'm not. We need answers and to figure out who it is."Be careful, okay?" I don't like that I'm not going to be there."It's you who needs to be careful. You will be in a confined space with him. If anything goes wrong." She looks at me worriedly.Wrapping my arms around her, I smile. "I'll be fine; once he's in the cell, he can't do anything." I kissed her and gave her a final hug before walking away.Getting to the cells, I sit in one and wait. I'm hoping the plan works. If we can get him in the cell, then his magic and power

    Asher POVI can see Zyra is struggling, and I don’t blame her either. She just found out her brother is missing.“Look, when Seraphine checked trying to find out the issue with him, she saw King Drakon, but it wasn’t him. Whoever it was is who we believe Cursed Asher.” My mum grasps her hands and smiles. “We’ve got people tracking down where your brother really is. There’s a reason for this, and it’s you, Zyra. Seraphine could sense the curses were put on Asher and Elijah to try and push you to return home.”Zyra looks around the room and seems increasingly worried. “What about Ryker? Is he okay? Does he know?” She waits, and I don’t know the answer to that.“I’m sorry, we don’t know. You need to stay here, Zyra. We have a plan, and we’re hoping Seraphine can uncover more when the person comes here.”She nods and sits, looking lost.“We are expecting Seraphine to return late tonight or early tomorrow. If they can’t fix the issue, then we will keep working to.” My mum smiles and hugs h

    Asher POVAfter about an hour of sitting in the cell with Zyra, I ordered her to leave. I wanted to spend time with her, but she shouldn't have been sitting in the cells with me.So, I've been alone for hours, waiting to find out their plan. They hadn't thought this through. I need to leave the cell to go to the room. As soon as I step out of this cell, it will come back. Then what?I'm willing to agree to anything right now if it gets me out of this cell and back with Zyra. The footsteps have me standing, and I watch my dad and Darius walk towards me."What's your plan? How am I to do this?" They haven't thought it through."You need to shift." Darius looks at me.I laugh at him. Is that some kind of joke? "You want me to shift, so that what? I can kill people easier?"My dad sighs and steps forward. "Please do as you're told. You won't understand why we're saying you can shift, but shift. Into your wolf, not dragon."Of course, I won't understand; they haven't explained it to me. If

    Elijah POVI sit in the office; Seraphine has left. She's meeting her family halfway in the hopes they have something that can help. Merfolk are powerful creatures with extraordinary abilities.Curses and such are something they specialise in."We're going to request that King Drakon attend a celebration for Zyra's pregnancy. It means we can get what we need and figure out who it is and what their aim is." My dad looks at me, and he makes it sound so simple. This isn't simple."He's going to ask why Asher isn't present, then what?" We can't lie and hide him. "It will look suspicious.""Not if Zyra invites him, she won't know, remember. She can invite him, and whoever is portraying King Drakon won't suspect anything. We're going to be honest and explain something is wrong with Asher, and he's not well."So we're not hiding the issue."He could be in the cell for weeks, so we've had things moved down there for him. The plan is later to test how he is with someone in the cell with him. T

    Asher POVI watch as Elijah glares at everyone and backs up more."Elijah, we need to know." My mum steps towards him."I saw him once, just once! You all need to focus on Asher, not me! He's the one that is cursed, not me!" He shouts and steps back. He backs into my dad, and he grabs Elijah as Seraphine steps forward and grips his head.His screams echo around the cells, and it's all over just as quickly as it starts. His body falls to the floor, and he cradles his head."Well?" Darius looks at Seraphine."You're going to need a warlock, or I'll need to contact my family and see if they have something to clear the curses." Her words make me look towards Elijah. So, he is also cursed."Asher's curse is to make him push everyone out and make him think he has a mad wolf so that Zyra leaves. Elijah's was to hate Asher, likely to intensify it." Seraphine smiles slightly. "There's no mate, Elijah. The curse is what's stopping us from having a baby. There's no third mate." Her words have hi

  • Luna Battle: The Game   The Truth

    Asher POVNo one speaks, likely because they know what I said is the truth. I need to die; there is nothing they can do to change that."Explain the process, what happened, how it started, when it happens." Darius pulls a chair over and sits outside the cell.I laugh. "Why do I need to talk? Why do I need to explain? You're proving you believe me by keeping me locked in here and being too afraid to come near your own son."Nothing I say can change that."Asher, I'm not opening the cell because I don't trust you to try and run. So explain it to me, tell me how it's progressed, and let's be sure that is what is happening." He waits, and I watch my mum, Elijah, and dad sit with him."It began with whispers. The words were barely audible, but I heard whispers in my ear. They got louder and began to sound like words. Whispers were one thing, but then I began to see people dead and my wolf above them." It was a warning to me to hide, to push them away, and not let them close to me."When do
