All Chapters of The Beta's Other Mate: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

"No," Anna lied with a straight face. It wasn't technically a lie to her. She had always refused to accept the fact that he was her mate. "No, I'm not. What makes you think that?"Martha's face fell but she didn't look away from Anna, "Are you sure? Please don't lie to me, Anna." she held her hand tighter."No," Anna said again. She wasn't going to admit that. "I'm not his mate, I'm sorry." she pulled her hand away and got to her feet."I already have a mate,""What? You do? Where is he-""He rejected me,""Oh. I-I'm so sorry. I didn’t mean to make you remember that. Was it Weston?"Anna shook her head, "No. It's someone else." she wasn't going to disclose that. Who knows what would happen if LeRoy heard."Okay. But, LeRoy has been acting strange since you came. He's been having breakfast with us and whenever you’re around, the air is different around him. Anna, I've only ever seen my son gloomy and distant," she confessed. "I'm sorry, I just couldn't help trying to connect the dots."

Anna closed the car door and fixed her seatbelt. She threw her hair back and made herself comfortable in the M*ybach. Once she was done and Leroy was settled in too, she turned to him, "We can go now-"His face was suddenly in her own as he pressed his lips to hers. It was a brief surprise kiss that startled her and when he pulled away, he acted as if nothing happened and he started the car.Anna threw a hand over her mouth with her face all flustered and a frown on her brows, "How dare you! What was that all about?" she asked him, leaning against the door."One for the road," he said, drumming his fingers on the wheels and grinning at her.Was he not embarrassed by what they did today? If he wasn't, well she was. She didn’t even want to be in the same space. Her memory was still too faithful. She couldn't even push it out of her head."Just shut up and drive," she said and looked away as he pulled out of the dark garage and drove through the underground tunnel. She was amazed how the

Anna ducked with her hands over her ears as the gun went off twice.The tires screeched as the car swayed from left to right in a reckless motion and Anna grabbed her seat belt.The scare that had overtaken her when he aimed the gun at her head made her sweat profusely.Why didn't he just say "duck!" Like all the other normal people? Why did he have to prove with each second that he was a lunatic!She was already starting to regret stepping out of the house in the first place.She glanced at the rearview mirror and saw two black cars chasing after them."Who are they?" She asked but her question soon drowned in an open fire. She ducked again as the rear windshield was shot multiple times but none penetrated."Good thing I took the bullet proof car," Leroy mumbled to himself."Give me a gun!" She told him and tried to yank the one in his hold.He switched it to his other hand and firmly said, "No. Just keep your head down." He kept his eyes on the road especially since he was going ove

He pulled into a parking lot in a very quiet neighbourhood. It was dark and unbefitting for someone of his status. From the trashy car, she should've known he took 'blend in' a little too seriously. The building was not a skyscraper but it was pretty tall with a different apartment to it. There were no elevators either, we had to climb a flight of stairs to get to the apartment."No one would find you here," he said as he jabbed the keys into the metal door. Anna could already feel the walls of her prison cell closing in on her."What about the neighbours?" their new apartment was between two others. It almost seemed like she was taking a vacation outside of town."They are friends," he mentioned. "They'll keep you safe.""Oh! Are you referring to those twins? Ezra and Eskel?"The door opened and he stepped aside, holding the door open for her."Thanks," she walked in and took in the small apartment. Everything was already set up. There were three couches and a TV. There was a dining

It was midnight when she stepped out of the bedroom, rubbing her eyes like she had cried a river when she hadn't even shed a tear. For some reason, the tears just never came. She was still wrapping her head around the fact that he'd kept something like that from her.Maybe she was just past the crying stage now. She was hurt, yes, but crying seemed too far fetched for a case like that.She walked into the living room and the only source of lighting was from the Television but there was no sound. Leroy was sitting on the couch with his arms folded and eyes glued on the screen.The animation that played was one fit for children- why did he look so interested in it?She walked in front of him to the other side of the couch and his head followed her. When she sat beside him, she put her leg under her ass and the other foot on the couch.There was very little space between them- not like she had done that on purpose. She turned her attention to the TV, staring at the moving picture and won
