บททั้งหมดของ I loved this Beta too much: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

NOVAI was in pain. I wanted to scream, but when I did, I screamed into a void that absorbed all sounds. I felt as if I was swallowed by the darkness because I couldn't escape it no matter how fast I ran. My magic didn't work, and after a while I could only bang on the walls surrounding me, hoping that one of them would break.‘Focus, Nova. Focus,’ I told myself in my thoughts. ‘Try to remember how you got here. Try to remember what happened…’ A scene of Laura stabbing me with a needle rushed through my mind. ‘A poison…’ With that one word surfacing in my mind, another wave of pain flooded me, but at least I acknowledged the source of it.I didn't know what kind of toxin Laura injected into my veins, but I could feel that it was slowly crushing every ounce of my consciousness. I wanted to live. I had to live. Then I began to wonder if, maybe, not all of my magic was blocked by this void. I took a deep breath—or at least I imagined taking one—and concentrated on my healing abilities. M

NOVAThe next twenty-four hours were intense. This one decision could change my entire life, and it would definitely change Felix's life. In the morning, Felix met with Alpha Tyrion to announce his choice. I could tell that Alpha Tyrion wasn't pleased with it, but he chose to support his friend nonetheless. I tried to think rationally about this idea, but my instincts were telling me that it was more like a choice between a fire and a flood. Well, the fire here was quite literal..."I know that I'm selfish, but I don't want you to leave." Aria held my hands tightly in hers and stared into my eyes, looking for an ounce of hesitation.My lips stretched into a thin smile. "Tell me honestly: do you truly believe you can clean up this mess with Felix and me living in Grand Lunaville?"She gritted her teeth. "I'm so pissed at this situation... I'm their Queen, for Goddess's sake!"I laughed. "Aria, they respect you, but they still won't change the way they think for you.""Well, they should

NOVAThe man in front of me slowly looked me up and down while I stood still as if my feet were glued to the floor. He pushed his chair toward me and stopped an inch away from my toes. Then he inhaled through his nostrils and closed his eyes."Magnolias," he muttered, curling his lips into a smirk. When opened his eyes, they were blazing red, a true Alpha-red. His gaze flickered to the unconscious Bear and then back to me. "What have you done to our warrior, witch?" His voice seemed calm, almost pleasant, but as his aura followed his words and wrapped around me, I felt the power of his demand.He was strong, but so was the magic flowing in my veins. My muscles tensed for a second, but I quickly overcame the pressure and stared into his eyes daringly. "He seemed tired. I put him to sleep. Don't worry, he'll wake up soon."His eyebrows rose, and he scanned my body from head to toe once more. "Interesting… It seems that my mother underestimated you."I narrowed my eyes, trying to read hi

FELIX I tried calling Nova, but it turned out that the dead battery wasn't our only communication problem. It was next to impossible to call each other, and the text messages went through only occasionally. Apparently, in the pack organized by eighteenth-century rules, the need for a telephone signal or internet was minimal, or at least it worked like that within the packhouse. If it hadn't been for all the gold-soaked flooring, walls, and ceilings, I would have thought that I was now living in a fucking Mormon village. Of course, the pack communicated just fine without phones or the internet; all they needed was a mind link. Not that it discriminated against all the wolfless creatures living within our pack's territory. My blood boiled again, but for now, I was helpless. All I could do was make a mental note to improve the signal as soon as I became an Alpha. But, could I become this pack's Alpha? The seemingly friendly future Gamma kept his eyes on me the entire time he led me to

NOVA"Nova, wait!" Felix ran after me. He grasped my wrist and brought me to a halt.We were standing in the corridor with four guards watching us and anticipating a fine drama. Felix gave the guards a meaningful glare. "Go somewhere else." They bowed down to him and sauntered away. Whatever happened on those training grounds must have earned Felix more than just his father's respect...I gritted my teeth and locked my eyes on him. "I can't do this alone," I said, swallowing a big knot forming in my throat. "I needed you to say something, to be there for me just like I have always been for you because in case you have forgotten, I am here and dealing with all this for you."He grabbed my other hand, pulled me closer, and sighed. "Well, you're doing the exact opposite right now."I frowned and jerked my hands away from him. "What?!"His jaw clenched, but he slowly drew in a breath to calm down. "You were the one who told me to play by their rules, and now it's you who doesn't want to f
