Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Omega's Beasts: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Alpha Karl looked between us and then broke into a small laugh."What's going on here?"I bit down hard in my lips as my gaze flickered momentarily towards Alpha Eros.He was watching me, his eyes wide, and I hated just how much hurt I could see beneath the dark red eyes.Before any of them could say anything, I turned and ran down to my room, my heart hammering madly in my chest, my body shaky.The room held Alpha Eros' deep scent, and I noticed he had cleaned up the room a little. I didn't stop and made my way into the bathroom, my chest heaving as my heart seemed to tighten.I grabbed the edge of the sink just as my knees gave way under me, and I went to the floor, my body shaky, my heart beating wildly in my chest.Why did I do that? Why did I say that, especially after what just happened?Tears rapidly filled my eyes, and I just sat there, reliving every single thing.Now I found myself wondering just how many times Eros had been lingering around, watching me, waiting.That nigh

I walked the long hallways down to Eros's place, my shoulders fallen, my legs still damp from the lake. I could hear Knox still walking behind me despite my insistence for him to just go to his own room. I didn't want Eros seeing us together, especially not after what happened. We got to the front door, and my eyes searched for the clock. It was a few minutes after eight. I swallowed hard, then turned. Knox stopped, his hands going behind him, his eyes wide. "Sorry," he said, then broke into one of his beautiful smiles. "I just wanted to make sure you got here safe." I nodded slowly, forcing a smile. "You should go now." He nodded, biting down on his lips slowly. "Goodnight, Kian." I could see his eyes. They looked like they were holding secrets, like he had something he wanted to say, yet couldn't. I bit down on my lips as hard as we stood there in awkward silence. "Goodnight," he said again but made no move to leave. "Goodnight," I said too, but didn't move eithe

I stepped slowly out of the infirmary, my breath catching in my throat.I could hear Alpha Karl's words ringing in my head. I could see Knox's eyes as he looked at me. Valerian died the night after Eros returned. Not before. Did he... lose his mind with rage and kill my brother?All strength left my knees, and I fell to the floor, tears slowly running down my cheeks.I knew just how powerful Eros was, and I have seen a glimpse of how soft he could get. Was this a recipe for disaster? Did his lack of control of both his extremes make him a killer?I swallowed hard as I pushed to my feet again, then went downstairs. The murmurs followed me everywhere, but now it wasn't just about the kiss. It was about how I had caused Alpha Eros's disappearance. It was about how I was some monster.I pushed further, letting the noise fall behind me as I pushed myself to the private gym that the princes of Rosendale used.I wasn't sure where Kyran and Karl would be, but I would check everywhere.I opene

The sun started to set on the large, open windows of Knox's room. He was right. It was a beautiful place, not nearly as big as Eros's, but it lacked the tension. It was cosy, homely, and I found Knox's love for flowers and soft pillows.We finished arranging my stuff, and I watched on the edge of the laid bed as he brought a few large vases from his place to mind, decorating the emptied place with flowers."You are injured, Knox," I reminded him, my eyes sweeping over his face and his injured leg.He only shrugged, then grabbed a few new toiletries from his stack and fixed them around the bathroom, making sure everything was in place."This is the dividing curtain. For privacy."He made a face, and I broke into a laugh with understanding. "Sure."He smiled, then sat back on the dresser, his eyes taking in the place. "I know it is not as glamorous as Alpha Eros's room, and you will have to go to the dining for food and...""Oh, please, Knox. I prefer it here. Look at this place. It i

The sound of a shower woke me up from the deep slumber that Knox's earnest attention had gently coerced me into. I woke up, mybeyes taking in the room. There was a tray of food covered on the small bedside drawer, a single fresh lily, and the scent of vanilla shower gel sepeing through.I got out of bed and opened the tray. Unmixed cereal, fruit juice, and pancakes on a separate plate. My heart clenched tight around itself, memories of last night flooding me.The way he had held on to me like I was a lifeline, the way his kisses had slowed, his hands running slowly down my jawline, the way he had smiled against my lips, the way he had said he was in love with me.I looked up. I didn't deserve this. I didn't deserve him.I slowly went to the shower and stripped off, then stood under the shower, taking in my reflection on the fogged glass. Every nerve in my body screamed for me to choose this. Kian. Safety, devotion, beauty. But my wolf, it ached for fire.I dressed up carefully, making
