All Chapters of The Beta and The Lost Heiress: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

WRAITH’S POV“She asked after you a few times.” Jake said to me.“How is she?”“There were no… occurrences.”I released a breath I didn’t know I held. “Thank you for watching over her.” “It’s my pleasure, Alpha. Always.” He responded. We stood by the balcony, overlooking the pack soldiers who were currently engaging in combat. “How did the trip go?”Jake was the only one fully aware of the reason I took the trip; to every other person—Tessa included—I’d taken a business trip.“Not quite as expected.”“You are alive; that’s something.”“They want Logan.”“Logan Stormbone?”“Yes.” I answered, my gaze fixed on the pack soldiers. “They are… curious about his abilities.”“But we can’t—what are you going to do?”“What do you think I should do?”“As much as I want to help, I don’t think I’m capable of making this decision.” He said apologetically.“I understand. Logan is the reason I’m alive—he’d saved her life too. I’m left with two… options. Betray him or watch Tessa die.”I’d promised I

**Rachel Valemont POV**I should have told her, and I’d been so close to doing so, but in the end, I didn’t.Could it have been due to the fear of losing the bond I shared with her? Or the fact that I didn't think it was the right time to reveal to her that her father was no longer just a drunken mistake. He now had a face–one that surprisingly, I still recalled. He was no longer a stranger.I sat in the taxi, wondering if agreeing to see him again will only end up a huge mistake. I could tell the cab driver to turn around now, before it’s too late to do that, but I don’t. Call it mere curiosity or perhaps just stupidity. Running away from tough situations was something I excelled at, I’d done it plenty of times before, but this time, I didn’t want to. It might sound delusional, but a part of me wanted to see him again.Finally, the car came to a stop before the restaurant but I wasn’t stepping out. So much for all my talk on facing tough situations.“Ma’am, we’ve arrived at your des

LOGAN’S POVThe only answer to why I was back here was guilt.But the question was, why did I feel guilty over taking back what was rightfully mine from a thief? And the answer was, because I’d discovered an almost justifiable reason for why she did what she did.She wasn’t just fending for herself; she had a little brother who she was also responsible for. The girl who looked no older than twenty of age was forced to cater for herself and her younger brother—and god knows how long she’d been doing so.Today, she had on a black hoodie over her dark green pants; her hair, of course, was hidden. Her tactic was to blend in with the crowd, and she did that effortlessly. I watched her push her way through the busy crowd.I would have missed it if I’d blinked. That’s how long it took for her to unclasp the watch off the wrist of a dark-haired man, who seemed on his way to work—judging from the messenger bag he had on his right shoulder and the corporate wear.I couldn’t help but stare in

A week had gone by, and yet, it felt like no time at all. I’d spent almost every night at Rex’s place.In such a short while, a lot of things had changed—even some things I couldn’t say out loud or admit to myself. But I felt it, in those times Rex had to go to work, I’d find myself missing his presence and desperately awaiting his return. I found myself putting more effort into my dressing and even makeup. I told myself I simply did it because I had plenty of time on my hands left to do nothing, but somewhere deep down, I knew it was more than that. I wanted him to notice, and he did… every single time.I was… falling for him, and there was not a single thing I could do about it.There was a knock on the door—exactly what I’d been waiting for.I hurried for the door, quickly unlocking it, and there he stood, handsome and beautiful in his black tailored suit. His slightly wet hair had been neatly combed backwards.My breath caught in my chest, and it took a moment to remember how to e

WRAITH’S POV“I had never seen anything quite like it.” Elizabeth said to me. I could tell that the fact she had no idea what was wrong with Tessa left her slightly embarrassed. Especially being one of the pack’s oldest healers, who always seemed to know about every type of illness. Her ancestral line were all healers, and she’s spent every moment of her life researching and studying in the department. More than that, she was unarguably one of the best in the world, and yet, she had no clue.“It’s fine, Elizabeth. It’s a different kind of illness.” I said, staring at Tessa, who was still under the sedative the healer had administered. She looked so frail… like she could shatter under a single touch, and of course, it only got worse. Nyxia’s words rang once again in my ear, ‘Let her go,’ but just as I’d done every other day since I had that dream, I locked the thought away.Tessa shifted, and then her eyelid fluttered open. Her wide gaze took in the room, perhaps trying to discover wher
