บททั้งหมดของ The Beta's Unexpected Mate : บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

 Kara's POV...   Simon kept to his threat to ask me out of the room. Now that I am back with the three terrorists in my life, I am at a crossroads on how to live. The only comforting thing for me right now is knowing I am never going back to the farm to work. I don't care how many floors or walls I have to wash as I get away from the scorching sun and also get to eat separately from the bullies. The in-house slaves don't get to eat with the farm workers.   Clutching my cover cloth and an almost tattered extra work wear tightly to my chest, I opened the room door slowly. Simon had insisted I don't spend another night in the former room. I wish I could bite his ear off, but it would be a waste of strength. Only one of the slaves was inside the room. I don't know why, but it brought relief to my heart. It was the vicious, quiet one, but she seemed disinterested in whatever I was doing. 

Kara's POV...  I was anxious all through the time I returned to my room. I might have been harboring silly wishes before now, but I am genuinely worried about Alexa. If anything happens to her, they might probably blame me. I don't want to be faulted for something I know nothing about. She has to survive, if not for anything but for my sake.  I had almost forgotten about my confrontation with my doomed roommates earlier today. When they returned to the room, they all minded their business, almost like I didn't exist. And it makes me feel good knowing I can stand against my bullies. I know I have done many wrong things in the past, but that doesn't exempt other people. Just because mine is more profound shouldn't automatically mean everyone else is a saint.   It was time for dinner; I was famished after missing lunch. Everyone seemed to be in a really good mood when I entered the dining hall. Sin

Author's POV...Selena hummed to herself as she lit the candles in the room. She held the thinned linen robe she had on closely to her chest to keep it from burning up. A light contact with the fire would set both her and the robe ablaze. She wanted to make the night special, having ended the day on a light note. When she saw Alexa's newborn, it made her heart yearn desperately for one of her own.She had discussed the case with Alexa again, and she was more convinced that falling pregnant was the right decision to make. Thankfully, she is in her heat period, which makes it seem like a fated move. A giggle escaped her lips as she lay in bed, covering herself up. Staring hard at the door, she sat up, wrapping her arms around her legs. Simon was supposed to be back in the room by now, but he hasn't shown up yet. Her morale was dropping, and it bothered her.Just when she was about to get changed and go in search of him, Simon opened the door. Feeling super excited, she jumped off the bed

Kara's POV...My cheeks colored at the sudden compliment. I can't remember the last time anyone called me beautiful. No one wants to associate themselves with me, talk more of raining compliments on me. When my eyes met Simon, I felt exhausted. Seeing him makes me feel suffocated. And last night was a bit embarrassing, staring into each other's eyes like teenage lovers. It irked me.I bowed my head lightly, "hello.""Hey." The young man put a finger underneath my jaw, raising my head to stare at him. "You don't need to lower your gaze. I want you to see me with those beautiful eyes. What's your name?"I sighted Simon coming towards us with a determined stride. I don't need anyone to tell me he would interrupt the conversation."Kara.""Such a beautiful name for a beautiful woman. I know this might not seem like the right time to talk to you. Since you obviously have to work." He said, motioning to the cleaning equipment in my hands. "I pro.....""That's enough." Simon's cold voice cut

Author's POV...Exhaling tiredly, Luscious rounded the stairs that led to his assigned room floor and paced his steps slowly. He found himself distracted all week while being instructed by Beta Simon. The only thing that filled his head was the face of the beauty he had met in the hallway. It's almost like all of his attempts to find her failed. And the Beta did ensure to keep him too busy to look around.Nothing appeased him for days, and all he desired was to meet with Kara again; he had never been so smitten by any lady before. Despite knowing she is probably a decade older than he is, Luscious doesn't mind and is ready to take the risk to be with her. He didn't want rumors to spread through the packhouse, which was why he didn't get down to asking all of the slaves where Kara might possibly be.Everyone knows her story and would definitely find it appalling that he wants anything with her. Pulling at his hair violently, he felt sticky. He had gone for a long run
