All Chapters of The Beta's Contract Mate: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Camille“You okay?” Olivia asks while I make my way to the car. Salvatore ordered everyone to pack their things and get ready to leave, but he was not yet by the vehicle, so we had to wait for him to come.“I’m good,” I lie even though I’m terrified now.I don’t know how long I’ll survive being married to Salvatore. It’s like every new day that comes, there’s something I have to worry about.It’s either his people trying to kill me or him going feral.I look up at the balcony and see Elder Desmond standing there, watching me.I curtly bow my head to him, and he gives me a nod. But even though I try to put on a brave face, I can’t get rid of the way he was looking at me when he tortured me.“Cami?” Eloise asks, holding a cage with a raven, and my eyes widen.“What’s going on?” I ask her, moving away from the car.“I was given by Elder Mariah,” she beamed with a smile as my heart raced. Why the hell would a woman who tortured me give a raven to my sister?I crouch, taking her hands in m

Camille“I think the blue would be a better choice. What do you think?” Olivia asked, bringing me back from my train of thought.“What?”“I’m saying for your gown for the ritual. I think blue would go well with—”I cut her off before she went on. “Any color is fine, really. Just pick whatever color you can,” I said, getting up from the chair, walking towards the window. “Is everything okay?” She follows me, putting down her tablet.“Yes. Just exhausted.” I glanced at her, then shifted my attention to Eloise, who was climbing on the ledge, and then jumped.“You know what? Let’s do this later.” I said, turning to go pick up my phone and cardigan“Cami”“I know what you’re going to say. But I’m fine, Livy. Really,” I offered her a smile, then made my way out of the bedroom, making my way towards the staircase. I hurriedly got down the stairs two at a time, and when I got to the bottom, I turned on the corner, but I bumped into something hard. Something like—human muscle.I lifted

Camille I stared out the window, thinking back to what Jenna just told me. Once I got out of the car, I found Tore waiting by the entrance to the house. “Gods, Camille. Where the fuck have you been?” he asks, coming towards me, his eyes filled with a glint of concern. When I left Jenna’s party, I asked Olivia to take me somewhere where I could get some air. I didn’t want to come back here and then end up staring at the ceiling for hours. “Around” “Around? Fuck wasn’t I clear about you doing this? How could—” “Could I what? Am I a prisoner? Can’t I go somewhere and get some air?” I asked, my eyes roaming around his face and chest, rising and falling. “You can. but—” “But what? I should have gotten permission?” I asked, raising my eyebrows, and he inhaled sharply, rubbing his eyebrows. “You know you don’t need my permission. I just want to make sure you’re safe. I could have sent other people to go with you,” he said. “Well, I’m back home, so no need to worry about it.” I brush

Camille“El!” I shout, running towards her as she stares up at me, her eyes shimmering with tears. Her fingers are covered in dark mud and blood, but my heart stops when I notice she is just in a blanket.“I…” “It’s okay, baby.” I wrap my arms around her, pulling her into my arms, and she sobs loudly, hugging me tight. My heart is racing so fast, I don’t know what to do. Please, God, let it not be what I think it is. “We need to get her to a doctor!” I scoop her up in my arms, but Tore steps in. “Let me carry her,” he offers, but my heart races.“Cami… I won’t hurt her.” He assures me, but I shake my head. I’ll hold her until I know she’s safe.“I’ll carry her.” “Cami…”“Please, Tore. Let’s not argue about this,” I whisper, and he nods his head before walking with me back to the car. El keeps crying and holds me tighter.“Leila…she…”“It’s okay. She will be fine.” I assure her. “Right, Tore?”“Yes, she’ll be. We have the best healers to look at her,” he says, but I doubt anyone ca

CamilleI should have said no. I never should have said yes to this whole thing. Now that I stand here in front of this mirror, I just want to go back to my sweatpants and oversized shirts.“Wow! I don’t know whether to hate the wolf king or love him for this,” Olivia says when I run my hands over my curves, my breath catching.The dress hugs my curves so well, and I can’t help but admire myself. I turn my back towards the mirror, then glance at my back, it’s a one-shoulder, sleeveless, floor-length, backless black dress with a ruched back that makes it look like a deep V, which hangs low but not to show my ass.“Sexy” Olivia is beaming with a smile as she gives me a clutch.“I don’t think Salvatore will approve,” I mutter. Not sure if this is a good idea anymore. I don’t know why I went with this place because I wanted to see Salvatore’s face, but now I don’t like the idea.“Let him. He chose that long-legged giraffe over you,” she says, and I burst out laughing, unable to hold back.
