All Chapters of The Missing Beta: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

~King~Boris sits across from me, along with Valor. There’s a small pile of folders on my desk, and we’ve been going through each one. I have to pick the security detail for Katarina. The sooner I get her group together, the sooner they can start to get comfortable with each other. “This is going to be hard to do. There are a lot of good candidates in here.”“Yeah. Valor and I made sure we targeted the best candidates, and their field test was very thorough.” I was going to pop into the field test this morning and look at those participating, but I decided not to at the last minute. I didn’t want to throw anyone off. I trust the word of these two men, so the checking up wasn’t needed.“Well, I’m going to go through these files and get back to you. Let’s meet after dinner. It shouldn’t take much longer than that.” They nod and leave me alone in the office. I’ve been working out of my dad’s office lately, trying to get a feel for it. I know I plan to change a few things, but it will hav

~’A’~I was up early this morning wishing I was going to training, not waiting for these witches to come. I’m thankful they are trying to help me, but something about the entire thing feels off. I don’t want to disappoint anyone, so I keep my mouth shut. I want to get better for Eddison and Shawna.I’m in the Alpha office with Eddison and the Alpha. A whoosh sounds in the air, and a portal appears. Out steps one of the witches, but no one else. I try to look behind her to see the other two, but they aren’t there. This is the one witch that gives me the creeps, so I’m not that happy that it’s just her. “Hello, Alpha… Beta.”“Where’s everyone else?”“Ulva and Isidora are busy with something else. High Priestess Topaz sends her apologies. I can take care of everything on my own. It won’t take long.” I feel my heartbeat increase. Something about her rubs me the wrong way. I really don’t want to be alone with her, but what can I say? I’m sure it’s simply because all this supernatural stuff

~Eddison~I shift back to my human form and change into the clothes that I carry in my mouth. Just as I pull my shirt down my body, there's a whirl sound in the air. “Better than I remember.” I look up to see Topaz stepping out of a portal. My mind betrays me with thoughts of the past.Topaz and I met at around 13 or 14 years old, and I swear it was damn near love at first sight. She was my first in all ways, and I couldn't get enough. My first kiss was with Topaz as we were floating in the air. Literally floating in the air. She was my first girlfriend and my first love, even though many adults in our lives would say that we were too young to know what love was.Topaz and I gave ourselves to each other, and I swear, at the time, it was the most amazing thing to ever happen to me. The thing with Topaz is that she's a witch. Don't get me wrong; I had no issue with her species. She was a beautiful girl, and I had so much fun with her. Her parents were against me because they felt that w

~Katarina~I’ve been up for a while now, unable to sleep. That’s been happening a lot lately, and I’m not too sure why that is. I have a trip to take today, though, so maybe I can sleep on the way. I want to check out a cabin the pack owns that we plan to honeymoon at.King and I discussed it at length, and we didn’t want to go too far away right now. We wanted to stay close by but still have the privacy we need as a newly married/mated couple. I have a few things I want to set up for that time and want it to be a surprise.The ceremony is in about a week and a half, and I’m slightly freaking out. I’ve been talking to my aunt and uncle about everything a lot lately. If I’m being honest with myself, I’m worried about making a mistake.What if marrying King is the wrong move? What if us marking each other isn’t right? What if I find my fated mate after the fact? There are too many what-ifs that are freaking me out.When it comes down to it, I just want to be happy. I want to live my day

My anger exuded out of me, and anyone within feet of me backed up to keep away from my wrath. Poor Wayne looked terrified as I pushed past him and ran outside. I heard shouting behind me, but I ignored it all and focused on the path ahead.It’s pitch black outside, but that doesn’t impact me. I’m a wolf and can see just fine in the darkness. I let Conan take over, and he takes off in the darkness. He shoots past trees and bushes, jumping over falling logs as we go. I know where she was going, and I don’t care how long it takes me to get there; I will get there.The more we run, the more the weather changes. I can see why they decided to stay and I would have suggested the same course of action. The issue here is that Aston is with them, and he shouldn’t be. He should be back at the pack.The night stretches on as I continue my journey. Even in wolf form, this trip takes a few hours. I’m sure someone has a car, so I will be sure to drive us back. She won’t stay there any longer with As
