All Chapters of The Beta and The Lost Heiress: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

WRAITH’S POVThe first thing I did was head straight to the address on the back of the picture. A café. The owner said some stranger had paid him a ridiculous amount to rent it for a few hours.The stranger claimed it was to impress a love interest, so he’d agreed.The café was a dead end, and so I’d returned back to the hotel to get the camera footage, and on my way out a staff member had approached me.She’d informed me of the conversation she’d had with Tessa right before she left. She’d said Tessa had looked so troubled she’d been prompted to ask, and was told she’d just received sad news—but that was all she could get out of her.Now I sat in my car, replaying the footage over and over again on my tab.I watched Tessa hurry to the private elevator, only to realize it needed a passkey. Frustrated, she’d returned to the suite, only to leave again—but this time she’d used the regular elevator, but other than that, there were no other clues to where she might be.In the footage, the

TESSA’S POVI didn’t know how much time had passed—hours? Maybe even a day?The only proof I had to tell the time gone by was my growling stomach.The metal door groaned, and a small compartment near the bottom opened. A tray of food was pushed inside before the panel slammed shut.Bree stood, fetched the tray from the door, and returned.My mouth watered from the aroma. There wasn’t much on the tray, just two plates of chicken soup and two plastic party-cups filled with water.“He never brings me food like this. It’s always bread and water—always.” Bree said. “I… don’t think we should eat this; it might be poisoned.”“I don’t think Falcone wants us dead just yet, Bree.” I reminded her, and her eyes flashed with fear. Of course she’d brushed off Falcone’s words earlier, but I knew she still thought about it.Bree was right to be cautious, the food might indeed be drugged, but staying hungry would likely give the same result. “We’ll need our strength if we are going to leave this plac

WRAITH’S POVI aimed the gun at Rex as I rose to my feet. I didn’t trust him—not with that weapon.“You didn’t mention bringing the Fortifier. I take it that’s why you requested the manufacturers’ names, you wanted the weapon for yourself.”“Would you rather I let you continue with the brawl? This way is safer, and quicker.”My eyes drifted to Falcone, drenched in sweat, his breathing labored, yet somehow still conscious.The plan had been to face Falcone together, but Rex had disappeared after the bomb went off. I had the idea he was letting us fight it out, waiting for the moment he could swoop in and take us both out and be done with it.“I don’t trust you with that weapon.” I stated.“How fast the night changes, eh?” Rex said before tossing the weapon to the ground and kicking it to the furthest part of the room. “Now you’re the one with the weapon. I told you I’d help, and I intend to. I’ll handle Falcone, go get your girl.”I lowered the gun and turned to Tessa.“Wraith,” she w

REX’S POVLogan had brought me to the middle of the woods. I had no idea where I was, but that was the least of my worries.I dug my fingers into the bullet wound, teeth gritting as I pulled it out. The silver seared my flesh, and I flung it aside.It would have taken more than a few minutes to heal—but it was a full moon, and my wolf was stronger on full moons. I watched the wound close, leaving only a scar.I had underestimated Wraith. I had counted on his emotions getting in the way, and planned to use that against him. I had calculated wrongly. But there was something strange about how it all played out. It was almost as if he’d seen it coming before I even made the move. I’d lost the element of surpriseThe silent footsteps notified me that I wasn’t alone. Wraith walked into view.“If I’d known how good Stormborn’s skills were, I’d have hunted him down and killed him myself.” I said truthfully. Logan’s abilities could come in handy, but I saw beyond its usefulness. I saw how

TESSA’S POVI’ve been to Rex’s wing once before.Now, I stood before the painting—the same one that had grasped my attention ever since the first time I’d laid eyes on it. His words still lingered in my mind, along with their hidden warning.It was finally over.Perhaps there would be more battles to overcome, more challenges to face, but I didn’t have to worry about that right now. For now, I just wanted to… be.The Silver Pack felt like home to me now, despite the fact that I was only human—the first ever human Luna. Here, I had friends, people who would always stand by me, people who actually loved me for who I was. I didn’t know all the details of what was expected of me, but I wasn’t going to borrow tomorrow’s worries. I’d let tomorrow worry about itself.“So, do you like it?” Wraith questioned. As Alpha, it was custom for him to move into the Alpha’s wing. But there was just something about this place…Perhaps it was because this space felt so unwelcoming. Everything here was b
