"You really need to take a break. What's wrong with you?" I rebuked Luscious. Ever since he met with Kara, he hasn't stopped talking about her. I doubt he even listened to all the instructions I gave him. He really acts his age, doing everything to annoy me. Kai also feels quite unimpressed, or that is what I think.
He jumped into the chair after pacing back and forth like a loose second in a wall clock. "Don't you get it, Beta Simon? I have never been so struck by a she-wolf this much before. I need to see her again."I groaned inwardly, "I believe she isn't your mate. What is all of this fuss about?""I am not really the type to hang around the old tradition of meeting one's mate before falling in love. I am smitten by Kara.""Can I ask you something? Are you a stranger in the Red Lotus pack that you don't seem to reckon that Kara is the Alpha's ex and the very person that almost brought war upon us."Luscious slapped the table in excRelated chapters
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 29
Author's POV...Exhaling tiredly, Luscious rounded the stairs that led to his assigned room floor and paced his steps slowly. He found himself distracted all week while being instructed by Beta Simon. The only thing that filled his head was the face of the beauty he had met in the hallway. It's almost like all of his attempts to find her failed. And the Beta did ensure to keep him too busy to look around.Nothing appeased him for days, and all he desired was to meet with Kara again; he had never been so smitten by any lady before. Despite knowing she is probably a decade older than he is, Luscious doesn't mind and is ready to take the risk to be with her. He didn't want rumors to spread through the packhouse, which was why he didn't get down to asking all of the slaves where Kara might possibly be.Everyone knows her story and would definitely find it appalling that he wants anything with her. Pulling at his hair violently, he felt sticky. He had gone for a long run

Kara's POV...Panting slowly, I dropped the cleaning tools and stepped out of the storage room. I have been at it all morning, cleaning all the corners and spaces assigned to me without any complaint. I thought of Luscious accompanying me all day, putting a smile on my face. I didn't realize how eager I was to know what he had to say to me until anxiety gripped me so hard as the time to meet him neared.I wasn't relaxed enough to eat my dinner. Returning to my room, I freshened up. I don't want to get close to someone with so much class like Luscious and end up smelling like dirty floors I have been scrubbing all day. I didn't step into the hallway until I was sure it was devoid of any movement. I can't have anyone seeing me. These folks would spread so many rumors I wouldn't be able to move freely.Just as Luscious had promised, he was by the oak tree, staring down at his feet with his hands hidden in his pant pocket. The moonlight shined on his silhouette, making

Kara's POV...With the look on Diana's face, one would think I threatened to stab her with silver. I repeated myself again, and all she did in response was blink. I huffed tiredly, twisting my fingers. Amaya kept growling in disapproval. I really have a lot of questions that I intend to ask her when I am done here.Diana blinked rapidly this time before she finally took one huge gulp. "When you say Luscious, do you mean the second-in-command to the Beta?"I rolled my eyes at her, "I thought you weren't going to speak again. Yes, is there any other Luscious in the pack?"A loud gasp escaped her lips. "I can't believe this. I know this might sound really spiteful, but I am so envious of you. Everyone here wants the legendary Luscious to give them a side glance, and there is you, who has had a close conversation with him. You are so lucky."This is why I think it's a terrible idea to have friends. She didn't stop asking how I was feeling; all that matters is

Author's POV...Luscious chuckled at Kara's shocked reaction. She obviously wasn't expecting to see him. He had been anxious all night, hoping she wouldn't refuse him or make it a point of duty to start running away from him when she finally came to a conclusion."G...good morning." Kara stuttered, cursing under her breath as she struggled to stand upright."Good morning, beautiful. I wasn't expecting to see you this morning. Even though I did hope to bump into you. How are you doing today? Do you need help with that?" He pointed at her cleaning equipment.Tucking her loose hair strand behind her ear, she said, "I am fine, thank you." Inhaling sharply, she tried to gather her thoughts, stomping her feet gently for suddenly going mute. "Can we talk?"Excitement graced his face, "sure, would you like to come to my room?"She nodded lightly, "Yes, please."Luscious led the way to his room, motioning for her to enter. They both stood in silence for a

Kara's POV..."Why are you so excited?" Amaya asked me as I jumped over the rock lying on the ground along the garden. The delight I felt throughout the day enabled me to work really fast and round up the day's work. So, to commemorate the day, I decided to take a walk.I shrugged, trying to hide the wide grin on my face. "I see you are talking to me now.""I am just wondering why you intend to do this when you know what you really feel towards the young man."Sometimes, I get very tired of Amaya and her sudden growth of conscience; she only attacks me now and never supports anything I do."We can't remain slaves forever, Amaya. I am confident this was what my father meant when he spoke to me. He told me the goddess had granted me a second chance. Considering everything we have endured here, I didn't think that would be possible. But then, my association with Luscious would definitely bring good tidings."She kept quiet briefly, "Just know that it's w

Simon's POV...Selena's eyes followed every one of my moves. It's not like it made me uncomfortable; I'm just not keen on responding to whatever raging question burning her mind that she intends to ask me. I know I haven't been acting right lately, but you can't blame me. Everyone acts blinded to the sore sight in front of them, but I am not known to be quiet when it comes to situations like that.I almost barfed when I caught sight of Luscious and Kara acting all loved up in the garden. It's gross to see such atrocity going on. It feels like a cursed relationship. Kara is far beyond someone Luscious should have a private relationship with. I am going to do all that it takes to keep them apart."How long would we keep acting like everything is fine between us?" Selena finally said something. "if something is bothering your mind, you should at least let me know about it. Stop making me torture myself in a bid to figure you out."Shutting my eyes tightly, I count

Kara's POV...I thought Simon was joking when he said I would be returned to the farm to work. Only for me to wake up the next morning with guards banging hard on my door and threatening to pull me out naked if I didn't get ready on time. My heart raced so fast it felt like it would jump out of its cage. I have gotten so used to working in the main building that I can't seem to lift a hoe. Aside from the workload, nobody seems to pay me much mind anymore. Which makes it easier for me to work without looking behind me.It's been a week since I started working on the farm, and I haven't heard from Luscious. I don't need anyone to tell me now that he was fooling me all along. What sane man would watch his lover melt away under the scorching sun? I feel so stupid for listening to Diana. The humiliation would have been much easier to bear. My eyes watered as I struck the hoe deep into the soil. Probably, I was hallucinating when I thought I saw my father; the words I he

Author's POV...Luscious looked extremely pissed as he walked the hallway in determination. He had gone to check on Simon in his office, and he wasn't there. The more he searched, the more annoyed and irritated he felt. He didn't need anyone to tell him that Kara was hiding the truth about why she returned to the farm. Beta Simon obviously has an unsung vendetta against Kara, if not him. But he would never have thought that the Beta would do something so childish and petty."Why do you look like you intend to rip someone apart?" Eric inquired as he walked towards him."Do you know where the Beta is?""No, why do you ask? Didn't you just return from your trip a while ago? Why are you so pumped to start working already?""This has nothing to do with work. I really need to meet with him.""Can you at least tell me what's wrong? You appear tensed."He took a fistful of his hair, gripping it tightly. "I don't know, Eric. But I think Beta Simon is tryi

The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 109
Kara's POVMy eyes stirred and I opened them to see where I am. The floor of the cold cell isn't this comfy, I thought to myself as I tried to remember what happened to me. I remember being dragged out of the cell, but I was too weak to know where they were taking me to. Carl probably had a rethink. I sat up and looked around again. This isn't the room that I stayed in at Carl's pack house. Neither is this Carl's room. It took me a moment to realize where I am. This can't be. How did I return to the Red Lotus pack? Did they bring me back to punish me? Just when I thought Carl's punishment will be the death of me. Here I am again, back to where I started from. Tears welled up in my eyes as fear enveloped me. If I knew I was going to get caught again this easily, I would have just stayed back to get punished appropriately and not have myself be humiliated by Carl. My hand caressed the spot where the vase scarred me. The wound has been attended to. I wonder what they all have going
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 108
Simon's POVI was ready to cause a lot of trouble the minute I arrived the Crescent Moon pack, just incase I am not allowed to enter. Keeping my raging nerves in check as I got led to meet Carl, I tried not to show my intentions on my face. I couldn't stop thinking of the condition Kara might be in. She has really lost her mind to think coming to Carl is the best option she has. I feel hurt and disappointed at the same time. But for now, I don't care about all that. All I need right now is for her to be safe. It will make me feel at peace the most. Carl had a snide smirk on his face the minute I stepped into his meeting hall. "To what do I owe this noncommittal visit, Beta Simon?" He inquired. "I am here for Kara." I stated"I am guessing you are the father of the bastard." He mumbled with an obvious disgust on his face. I stood my ground, unflinching at his intimidating glare. "Where is Kara, Alpha Carl? You know better to have sent her back to the Red Lotus pack when she cam
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 107
Kara's POVMy body felt like it would break into pieces. I finally got dressed after battling with drowsiness for so many hours. Carl returned yesterday and I have been prepped to become his concubine. For the past few days that I have been here, I have had the most conflicted string of thoughts. Many times I thought of swallowing my shame and return to the Red Lotus pack, most importantly to Simon. I miss him so much it hurts. But then, I had to consider my child's life. Becoming the talk of the pack because of something his or her mother did, will be an unfair life for such child. That had prompted me to maintain my resolve and endure whatever it is Carl died to me. It will all be worth it in the next few months. I might be able to really escape after gathering enough money to settle in a far away pack with my child. It won't be long. I hate that this is the only possible solution for me. What kind of mother am I? Truth be told, I have never thought of the life I would lead if
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 106
Author's POVLogan had an amused expression on his face when he entered the room to find a naked Alexa on the bed with her legs spread out waiting for him. He pulled at his shirt while holding her gaze. "Is there an occasion?" He inquired in a low tone. Alexa flipped her loose hair to the back as she crawled towards the edge of the bed. "I don't know, you tell me." She cooed seductively, wetting her lips. He gulped hard at the sight, it's been a while since he shared an intimate moment with her. They always get distracted by their new born. It's either that or Alexa feels too exhausted and he has to comply with her needs. Seeing her in her full glory after what he considers and excruciatingly long period of time. It makes his wolf very excited. "Come." She urged, motioning to him with her finger. Logan walked to the foot of the bed and stood still when she placed a palm on his bare chest to stop him. Alexa worked her way down to his trouser and pulled it down his dick spran
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 105
Author's POV Selena exhaled for the umpteenth time since she sat by the bath. Alexa had asked that she join her to bath her new born. Alexa knew she hadn't been herself for days and thought making her do something different will cheer her up. Instead, Selena has kept to herself and only smiling weakly at the baby from time to time. "You will end up looking too old for your age if you continue like this." Alexa threw a light joke. She hissed, "of what use is my youthful look when I can't get a man to love me." "Why are you sounding so dejected for crying out loud, Selena. I have told you time and time again that it's not your fault. And you aren't unfortunate just because this happened." "You say it like I really want to sulk all day. I can't get rid of the thoughts. It's always coming. I also want to break free from it, but I can't. I wish it didn't have to turn out like this. Probably if he had told me earlier, I would have gotten over it by
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 104
Kara's POV My life right now is the exact illustration for back to square one. I remember how I had walked in here sometime ago and stood in the same hall with Carl showing himself off like the unattractive pig that he is. I can only hope my mind portal isn't opened and all my thoughts are out. Carl wouldn't hesitate to have my head chopped off to prove a point. I swallowed hard, holding up his gaze while trying hard to put on a smile. Carl had a devilish grin on his face. "What do we have here? How long has it been again? A year or two? You look better than the last time I saw you. Have you been feeding on blood?" He mocked. I swallowed whatever little pride remaining in me. I have already been humbled by life, it's time to throw it all in. "Well, it's been an adventure. I returned to the Red Lotus pack...." "What?" He didn't let me finish before blurting out like the bloody moron he is. "How can you be so cruel? You just had to go back. So did you g
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 103
Kara's POV...This is the most dangerous decision I have ever attempted in my life. The safety that I am so keen on that I might not get at the Red Lotus pack. There is no assurance that I will get it at this supposed destination of mine. However, it felt like a good option an hour ago. It's been over a year since I returned to that packhouse that I have known all my life. In truth, it never felt like home until recently. I thought I had a place there, but I was wrong. I have cried so much that I don't have the strength to cry anymore.Thankfully I was able to get water to carry with me in my travel and some bread that I had sneaked in by Diana. She didn't know what I was planning to do at all. I had gone to the kitchen to tell her of my cravings. She appeared very delighted to give it to me. I hope she didn't get caught and be accused of stealing. I wish I had the luxury of time to thank her for being a shoulder to lean on when no one wanted to be associated with me. I
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 102
Simon's POV...I try not to think of anything negative and just consider that she might be in the garden or around the pack house somewhere. She can't possibly leave. Why would Kara leave?"What if she did?" Kai interjected.I swallowed hard, and just then, my eyes caught sight of the paper on the bed. My heart thumped crazily as I walked towards it with caution. I picked it up with shaky hands like I could already tell what was in it. Clearing my throat, I stared at the letters. Kara has fine penmanship, but that isn't what matters right now. She wrote;"Dear Simon, I know by the time you see this, I would have been long gone. That is, if you ever see it. I think I have caused more than enough trouble as it is. I promised myself when I returned to the pack house that I would do better as a person. However, it turns out life played me. Forget that anything happened between us. Please take care of Selena; she doesn't deserve to be treated this way. Guilt wouldn'
The Beta's Unexpected Mate Chapter 101
Simon's POV...My distorted state of mind didn't make me pay attention to what's in front of me. I unintentionally bumped into Luscious. I blinked rapidly at the sight of him. Apparently, Selena had been quite loud yesterday when she was raining curses on Kara. Everyone in the pack house knows now whose child Kara is carrying. It's not like it bothers me much. I just didn't expect that it would turn out this way. I squared my shoulder for what was to come and held Luscious's gaze. A punch, maybe, or a string of curses."Congratulations." He said to me with no hint of emotion in his eyes. I swallowed, not saying anything. "You know, I have always wondered why you were so against my relationship with her. You had your eyes on her and made sure to change her mind. Not only did you hurt her, you hurt Selena too. I should probably punch you in the face, but then that would be a waste of energy. I wanted to believe Kara had hurt me spitefully and lived up to her past reputatio
