TESSA’S POV

I wasn’t in my room. That was the first thing I noticed when I woke up in the unfamiliar place.

This room alone was bigger than my entire apartment back in Old Holt. Every piece of furniture was done in white and royal blue. Where was I?

The last thing I remembered was falling unconscious after being drugged.

I threw off the sheets, letting out a breath of relief when I saw I still had my clothes on.

Footsteps echoed from the living room area, someone was coming.

“I had money on you waking up sooner. You really know how to ruin a bet,” Wraith said, walking into the room.

“You asked if I trusted you—and then you drugged me?”

“It was necessary.”

“Yeah, I got that the first time.”

“You’ll be safe here.”

“Where are we?”

“This is the Silver Pack. This section is my wing—you’ll be staying here.”

“Wait, you’re not planning to keep me locked up in this ‘pack’ forever, are you?”

“I thought you needed protection.”

“Yes, I do. But I have a job to get back to, and Bree—oh my God, Br

  • The Beta and The Lost Heiress   Chapter Eighty One

    “Just a few hours ago, you wanted nothing to do with her, and now you want to speak to her?” Jake asked, narrowing his eyes.“I’m sorry, but this is really important. Can you find her?”“I guess, yes. But are you alright? You look kind of pale.”“I’m fine. Just find her, please.”He nodded before heading off.It couldn’t be possible. It just couldn’t be Falcone. I could have sworn I had never seen that man in my life, and yet, it had been him in that picture. Inside me, I knew it..“I knew you’d be calling for me soon enough, and so I stayed close.” My mother said with a smile.“Are you fine with her?” Jake asked. It took me a little too long to nod, and then I was leading her to my room.The moment we got in, I shoved her to the bed.She looked up at me, stunned.I really didn’t know what I was turning into. Earlier, I’d been violent with Logan, and yet he’d been kind enough to ignore that, and now my mother. I swallowed, taking a deep breath, and then I tossed the picture she had

    “I wasn’t sure what kind you’d prefer, so I got you the same one I use,” Angelina said, passing me the brand-new phone. I stared at it, stunned. I’d only asked her yesterday.“Thank you so much.” I said reaching for my purse. “How much do I owe you?”“Come on, Tessa, it’s nothing.”“You’ve done enough for me; I’m paying, besides, I do have some cash on me.”“You don’t have to pay me. I bought it with Wraith’s card. He gave me one in case you ever needed anything, so technically, I’m not the one you owe.”Of course, this was something Wraith could do. As grateful as I was that he was making sure I lacked nothing, I wasn’t used to this. All my life, I paid my own bills and provided for myself, and so this was a bit… overwhelming.When Angelena was gone. I returned to my room and shut the door behind me.I searched the drawers for the card Logan had given me, and I finally found it. I took a moment studying the numbers and memorizing them, before ripping the paper into shreds and disposi

    The healers had informed me Wraith was under a heavy sedative; they believed it might help quicken the healing and reduce the pain. But even in his sleep, he still looked in pain. His brows were furrowed, sweat trickled down his forehead, and he trembled as if he was cold.I took his hands in mine once again.“Wraith.” I called, but this time he couldn’t hear me. “I don’t know what to do—”Someone walked in.A healer, I’d assumed, till I looked up to see Natasha. She wasn’t looking at me—she was looking at him.“He’s still in pain. The sedative isn’t enough to numb it.” She said, confirming my own thoughts. “No one can help him right now; he will have to fight this all on his own.”I had no idea why Natasha was speaking to me, but now I could clearly see how much she cared for him. She finally looked at me, her sneer returning—blame bright in her eyes. Then she turned around and walked away.Natasha had said no one could help him, but maybe she was wrong; maybe there was a way to help

  • The Beta and The Lost Heiress   Chapter Seventy Eight

    Wraith had always been that kind of man—throwing himself into danger to protect those he cared about. I only wished he could worry more about his own safety. It might have been a selfish thought, but a part of me wished it wasn’t him lying on that bed. That he hadn’t stepped in the way.It was a surprise that he survived the wolfsbane, but that didn’t mean he came out unscathed. According to the healers, they weren’t sure if his body system would ever function normally again—and even if it somehow did, it would take months.“You should go take some rest; it’s been two days. You can’t stay here forever.” Angelina said, her eyes filled with pity as she looked down at me.“Rest? You really think I could sleep after this?”I did feel like a mess, but I couldn’t bring myself to care about cleaning up or taking a nap.“Tessa. It’s fine.” This time it was Rex who’d spoken up. “I’ll watch over him; go get some rest.”It wasn’t a suggestion; it was a command. A command I wanted so much to dis

    I ran into the infirmary, Angelina right behind me.We nearly crashed into Jake, who stared at me with a questioning look.“You were supposed to keep her away,” he said to Angelina.“I tried, okay. But she wouldn’t listen.” I spotted the room Wraith was being taken into, and I hurried towards it, only to be stopped once again, but this time, by Natasha.“Where do you think you’re going?”“Natasha, I don’t have time for your games; get out of my way.”“Haven’t you done enough? He’s in there because of you.”I didn’t bother responding to her; her weak jabs were the least of my worries right now.“Get the fuck out of my way or else—”“Or else what? What can you do, little human?”“Please, just stop. I have to see him; he needs me.”“I’m on orders; no one goes in. The healers are working on him now; no one can be in there.”I took a deep breath. Stepping back, I located the nearest seat, and sank into one of the waiting chairs. Angelina joined me.“I’m so sorry.” She said to me, but I r

  • The Beta and The Lost Heiress   Chapter Seventy Six

    We walked past a painting of Falcone Callister seated on a throne-like chair made of gold with a lion at his side.Rex snorted at it.Another picture caught my eye. A smaller one with a girl, no older than five. She had on a hat way bigger than her head and gave a bright smile to the camera. A cousin or friend, I assumed.“So that’s it then? It’s over.” I muttered to myself as we walked to the car waiting for us.Seeing the Callisters so desperate was a picture that would be stuck in my head for a very long time.“No, it’s far from over.” Rex said. “Run a check on everything Falcone owned, make sure it aligns with the records—”It had all happened so fast.A man on a bike drove past us with a weapon that had a resemblance to a gun in his hands. He aimed at Rex and shot.“Get down.” I growled, dragging Rex down and shielding him.The sound of a rifle tore through the air. A sniper’s bullet ripped through the attacker’s skull, sending him crashing to the ground and his bike falling over
