The Beta’s Regret

Two big men were standing at the entrance.

“Bouncers, Luke mouthed, and he put on his mask again.

“I don’t have one.” I said, and he pulled out a pink colored one from his jacket. “I have got you covered”

I put on the mask and stepped inside the bar with him. The atmosphere was electric. Dazzling lights were flashing at regular intervals and there was smoke all around. Everybody was dressed in nice modern clothes.

I was glad Luke had informed me to change into something nice. Not a single person was in a hoodie.

A few girls were dancing to the music already, and I saw a few couples making out in the dark corners of the bar.

Luke guided me through the crowded place and pulled me to one of the less noisy corners.

You are looking fabulous, Eden,” He said as he gave me a quick once over. Luke was wearing simple black jeans and a red T- shirt but he looked nice too.

But instead of blurting out a compliment, I asked. “Why did you pick a bar to meet of all the places? It is so noisy here” Luke lowered his face and whispered in my ear.

“Because your rich brat won’t suspect you to be here of all the places” Well, I didn’t like that he referred to Eros as a rich brat, but I knew what he meant.

No one would think that the gullible, quiet Eden is in a bar. I forced a smile. “So, what is the plan? How am I going to get out?” I asked going straight to the point.

But it seemed like Luke had other plans in mind.

Loosen up a little, girl I wanted you to get out of your shell first

1 threw him a confused look. “I do not have the money to pay for anything except the dollars you gave me. And now I just have $400. I would certainly get a job and repay you as soon as possible.” I said, so he wouldn’t feel I was leeching off him.

But Luke only placed a hand on my shoulder and replied, “Work, job, money. Is that all you think about? Aren’t you listening? First get comfortable, and then we’ll talk about your escape plan.”

I opened my mouth to argue, but he had already disappeared into the crowd. I looked around and found an empty stool, and sat on it while looking at the crowd.

Lake returned, holding two glasses in his hand. It was a blue colored drink that he offered to me while he took the other one.

Here, tonic for the nerves. He said, and I shook my head.

“Sorry, I don’t drink I tried refusing

Luke smiled, “I don’t either. This is a soft drink, not liquor. It looks odd that we are sitting here alone just chatting, so I thought holding a glass in our hands would make us look cool. I nodded at that, and took the glass from him.

can you tell me more a

re about yourself?”

I but my lower lip nervously. “Well, my life is boring I have a mother, who I believe is fine. And just that, only some minutes before I left my park that I got to know that the Alpha was my father, and his daughter, my bully was my step–sister.”

Typical Stepsisters always hate the beautiful sister Lake clicked his tongue

“Well, I don’t think that’s the case… but I do not want to talk about it.” I said dismissively.

He nodded and took a sip from his drink. “So, this rich brat of yours. how does he treat you?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

I tried not to frown “He is cold and aloof. I managed and Luke looked at me darkly.

“This might sound a little personal, but did he ever force yourself upon you? I could get the local police involved if he is exploiting you in any way. That way, you are free and that bastard rots in jail forever

My eyes went wide at that. I didn’t want Eros to rot in jail, and he hadn’t forced himself on me, rather I was the one who wanted him and begged him to take me. Even though we didn’t go all the way,

I shook my head, “No he did not

“Great. So you are a virgin then.” He said with a cheerful smile.

I just kept mute, and stared ahead awkwardly. Luke received a call on his phone, and he stepped aside. “I will join you in a

minute

I nodded my head and sat watching the couples danced intimately. While watching the couples, my eyes fell on a particular one that stood out from the rest of the dancers.

Or particularly the man who was dancing. He was tall and athletic, and his body frame was almost exactly like Eros.

He and the girl with him, both were wearing white clothes, but from this distance, it was hard to tell who they were crowded and the lights were flashing a lot

as it was

Plus, all the people were wearing masks. I looked around, but Luke was nowhere to be found. My gaze drifted back to the couple, but they had disappeared into thin air.

Furrowing my eyebrows, I got up from the chair and took a few steps in the direction I had seen

them.

After a bit of searching, I saw them in a comer or the girl dragging the man in a corner.

She was wearing an almost see through dress, every curve of her body visible as she kept slamming her body onto the mans demanding him to touch her,

And the man was not very reluctant to grant her the wish. She was laughing and giggling while she dragged him to a couch and pushed him onto the plush velvet couch

The man fell on the couch as she grabbed a glass from one of the waiters, who was carrying a tray full of drinks.

She picked one and pushed the waiter away, who almost tripped on the others. He left without arguing and I figured they must be quite rich for everybody to leave them alone or either regular customers at the bar.

The girl click her heels and sashayed her hips as she slowly made her way towards the man. Placing a knee right in between his legs to make him part his legs a little, she leaned forward and tilted her head.

The man placed his hands on the back of the sofa, casually resting them as the girl kept moving seductively.

She oozed with confidence and knew what she was doing, unlike me, who was sticking my head behind a wall and hoping no one would notice

The girl was wearing a white shimmery almost see through dress and she did a little twirl, letting her ass jiggle in front of the man before slowly turning around.

The man kept watching her through the mask but did not immediately grab her. She did her little twirl and brought the

glass in front of the man.

The mask was only covering the upper half of his face, leaving just his lips and jaw open. She brought the glass closer to his mouth and urged him to take a sip.

He waited for a moment instead of gulping it down right away. And then she slowly reached for his mask and pulled it up.

I watched with hushed breath as the mask came up. And I took a few more steps closer to see who it was, as I could not contain my curiosity anymore. My breath hitched when a pair of blue eyes revealed themselves and I felt them stare directly

at the.

It was just a brief stare and maybe I had imagined it, but it felt as if Eros had noticed me. Not wanting to make my presence obvious, I quickly hid behind as I tried to calm my racing heart.

What was he doing here, of all places? That girl was definitely Olivia then. And she was leaving no stone unturned to seduce

him.

And Eros was letting her….

I tried to not let it affect me. He was here with his girlfriend, or whatever she was. He meant nothing to me.

I took a peek a second time at them, careful to not let them see me, and was glad for the crowd that covered me. Olivia leaned closer to him and her hair fell on her face as I saw her whisper something in his ear.

Their faces were close, too close, as she kept pushing her chest on him…. I couldn’t see that anymore.

No, I did not want to see it anymore.

So just turned around and walked back to the corner I had be

been talking with Luke to earlier.

To hell with Eros and Olivia. I was going to enjoy my life, too.
