THE BETA AND I Chapter 10
CATHERINE. My phone pinged. I used to dread that sound, but not anymore. Ever since Tyler was here last week, he has been messaging me nonstop, which has always been the highlight of my days. The only time I would not receive anything from him would be when he had things to do, but he would inform me beforehand. Tyler was giving me the dream that I always dreamed of — his attention. And despite the distance between us, he was making sure I felt that he was interested in me. I walked to the living room from the kitchen, as I wanted the phone away from me so I wouldn’t get tempted to message him, as he said he would be in a meeting. My face lit up when I saw Tyler’s name pop up and his message on the home screen. Tyler: How are you? Catherine: Fixing dinner. Your meeting took so long to finish. What did Jace want this time? T: The meeting was over hours ago. C: *rolling eyes emoji* T: Did you miss me? C: My ears missed the sound of my phone pinging. T: No one is texting you

TYLER. “Sleep with me, Tyler.” She said it in a low voice without looking at me. I swallowed hard, my jaw tightening at her words. “Are you sure?”“Not sex, just sleep beside me. Or otherwise, I would spend the rest of the night thinking about you. I want to sleep.”Black whimpered in my head, disappointed, as he had begun flashing images of Catherine and me in bed the moment she asked me to sleep with her. But the last part made him whimper again and pranced around in my head excitedly at her explanation. A smile tugged at my mouth, but I swiped it off before I responded. I didn’t want her to see that she made me fucking melt inside. “I can do that.” I hooked my arm under her knee, and with the other still snaking around her back, I scooped her off the floor before I managed to stand up. She didn’t say anything but just clutched my t-shirt tightly with her eyes still closed. I walked us to the main light, switching it off and leaving just one lamp on before going to the stairs. “

CATHERINE. Time stopped, and all rationality went out the window when his lips met mine. I kissed Tyler hungrily, pouring into the kiss everything I was not been able to tell him yet. I loved him, but I was scared I might change my mind the moment I smelled my mate. But I prayed to the Goddess that I wouldn’t because my heart knew who it belonged to. Tyler flipped us over, and I was on my back. But in just a few seconds, he moved us again. He was turning me around as if I weighed nothing. And the next thing I knew, we were already seated, with me sitting on his lap and my back against his torso. His lips were still on mine, and although tilting my head to the side to kiss him was uncomfortable, I was not complaining. I wanted more of his lips. I had dreamed of this for a long time. His hand clamped on my stomach, holding me in place while his other hand trailed along my exposed inner thigh. He parted one leg, and I voluntarily opened both. I had no idea what I was doing. All I

TYLER. The four-hour drive back to the territory went by so fast because I was enjoying it. I enjoyed being with Catherine. The waiting time while she was at the university didn’t bore me as much, as she would find time to message me even while in class. I had forgotten that behind those sweet-looking sapphire eyes was a female who could be a rebel when she wanted to. “Are we there yet?” She asked for the nth time, and it made me laugh this time. “You know fairly well how near we are to the border now.” I squeezed her hand that I was holding and placed it on my mouth, letting my lips pepper kisses on her knuckles. I’d been holding her hand for almost the whole duration of the drive, and it just felt natural, like I was meant to hold her like this. “Can we turn around? I’m not ready to share you with my brother and his Luna.” She pouted, and it warmed my heart because it was exactly what I was feeling. I wanted her alone for myself. “I can resign too if you want, so I don’t nee

CATHERINE. Austin had already advised that families from both sides of Jace and Amara were already at the packhouse, so I knew the attention wouldn’t be on me, and I was happy with that. I just wanted to lie low and not be noticed. But the moment we entered the packhouse grounds, I saw Aunt Alia and Uncle Gavin exit their car. And they waited for Tyler’s car to stop. I was not sure if they knew he picked me up from the city, but regardless, I was still having cold feet. I had always liked Tyler’s parents, but I was not sure if they would be okay with us being together since we were not fated mates. “Wait for me. I’ll open your door.” He told me before he stepped out of his car, and I slowly unbuckled my seatbelt without tearing my eyes off the windshield, watching Tyler’s parents approach him. They were discussing something, but I couldn’t hear anything except the thudding of my own heart. But if anything, Aunt Alia was smiling, and she looked rather excited. I hoped the smiles

TYLER.“Catherine…” I whispered her name, my knuckles brushing softly against her cheek. I came home way past midnight and headed to her room right away. I showered and laid beside her, wrapping her in my arms. She was sleeping peacefully, softly purring while clutching her blanket. She hadn’t slept enough these past few days, and I didn’t have the heart to wake her up. But then I had to go soon. It was almost six in the morning, and we had many things to do. “You’re here…” She smiled as her hands went to my naked chest while I hovered over her lying form. “It’s morning already. I have to go soon.”“You didn’t wake me up last night.” Her eyebrows furrowed.“I want you to catch up on sleep, but I slept hugging you.”She smiled broadly before she nodded. “Maybe that’s why I had a good sleep. Are you leaving now?”“Yes. Can I kiss you?”She licked her lips, and I didn’t wait for any response. My lips crashed against hers as my hand slid at the back of her head, pushing her closer whi

CATHERINE. I sat in the bed with my back against the headboard and watched Tyler put on his clothes after he went for a quick shower to take off my scent from him. And as much as I wanted to shower with him, I knew doing so would delay him from starting his day. “Will I see you at breakfast?” I asked. “I’m not sure, but I will link with you.” “Can you keep your mindlink open for me the whole day?” “Of course. And if I don’t see you at breakfast, I’ll check on you whenever I’m at the packhouse. So let me know if you are going somewhere.” “I’ll just be here until the ceremony. The makeup artist will come here instead, so I don’t see me going anywhere.” “Good…” He smiled at me as he slipped on his pants. “Tyler… what if I meet my mate tonight?” His head shot up, and he looked at me as he put on his shirt before he placed his hands on his hips. He let out a deep breath before he spoke. “The choice will always be yours. But my request is still the same. Don’t rush, and give me a

TYLER.“Announcing the arrival of Lady Catherine Gertrude Galhart of the Black Shadow Pack together with Gamma Austin Joseph Monterell of the Black Shadow Pack.”The door opened, and Austin and Catherine came into view. The room fell silent, or maybe my ears tuned out everything, not wanting to hear if someone would claim her on the spot. I blinked back my tears as I let my eyes focus on her and how beautiful she looked tonight.She wore a shimmering light blue gown that accentuated all her curves. Only Luna Amara was allowed to wear a full midnight blue gown tonight, while the former Luna only had half of her dress designed with the pack color, while Catherine carried a blue of a different shade. But I knew she could be in simple clothes and still be the most beautiful female in the ballroom.I watched as Catherine smiled and walked with Austin.I restrained myself from looking at all the unmated males around us and remained focused on her. I didn’t want to miss her expression. I d
