Chapter 55
The Beta’s Regret
I knew something like this would happen. I attacked an Elder yesterday,
âOkay, so I wonât be going to school, Int when are you guys going to school?â I asked slowly. I need to go home, and process everything. I need to prepare myself mentally for the meeting with the elders of the werewolf council. Will Alpha Theo be there? And Lyra
âWe arenât going to school today,â
âWhy?â I frowned
âbecause we are a pack. Beauty emphasized. âWeâre our own pack. A family. Weâre going to face the council with you.â
Eros nodded, and smiled genuinely âWe knew the Elder couldnât hur, but he threatened your family and friends. That
canât be ignored.â
âNot to mention dangerous, What will happen what would happen if he hurts any of your family or friends?â Arthur chipped.

âYesterday Eros was able to cajole you easily. The human part of you was still in control because you had wanted to kill him, you would do that easily without blinking. You were simply playing with him. If he did hurt any of your loved ones, you would have killed him in a second before moving on to your next target to kill without remorse. You would be controlled by your hybrid, and driven by your fury. Itâll be a bloodbath before Eros would be able to stop you,â Adonis said
The school ground would be littered with dead bodies, Arthur whispered..
Woahh⦠I donât want to go on a killing spree. Many innocent lives would get killed. âIs that what happen to the hybrids whose mates got killed?â
âNo, sweetheart, itâll be much worse. âEros took my hand and laced his fingers through mine âThere would be no mate to console them, and so to stop them the kingâs best warriors would be sent in. We are his best⦠and the hybrid would have to be killed.
I have read books, and I know that itâs not easy to kill a hybrid. You have to sever his sever his spine, and then pierce his chest with a diamond made knife. To do that, you have to get close enough to the Hybrid without getting killed brutally. A Hybrid on a killing rampage is almost undefeatable.
âSo honey, we wonât stand idly aside and watch one of us get killed.. Our hybrids are possessive to our pack, those we have accepted as family. Our hybrids wonât stand for it. We will protect each other,â Beauty said
âThey would have to go through all of us,â Arthur said in agreement when I looked up at him. His eyes looked serious for
once.
I donât know what that would mean if anything happen to them because of me. But I know that the odds are in our favor Power, and Eros being the royal prince. I donât think the king would be keen to slaughter his own cousin, but on the other hand, innocent lives would have to be saved.
âSo whatâs going to happen at the meeting with the Pack Council I asked them, absolutely having no idea what was going to happen today. I had only been in a meeting where my Aunty came to claim my family and I.
To tell you the truth, we have no idea whatâs going to happen either. It all depends on the pack, what they intend to do.. but I donât think they want the Palaceâs involvement in this matter, Eros said
âI could happen if they insist on punishing you,â Adonis said
âHmm, not bad,â Arthur muttered with a grin âthe palace involvement or a fight with a few hybrids,â Arrgh. Heâs back to his
normal self.

Now I understand that whatever happens to me would affect all of them. I know that none of the werewolves would stand a chance against a hybrid, let alone a pack of us but I still donât like the idea of my hybrid friends getting involved in something like this, or the werewolves dying because of me.
Eros. My Gem
I love Beauty, Adonis and even Arthur and I would give up my life for them in a heartbeat, but also I grew up with these. werewolves, even though they never treated me, my mom and sister nice.
The meeting with the Pack Elder Council was at 8 in the morning. By past 7. I was ready.
I know I should dress formally, but the rebellious part of me decided to wear something more free and casual. I chose a black and white dress that ends midâthighs, and then some biker shorts that peek out underneath the dress and a pair of kneeâlength black boots on. The black biker shorts is for just in case I needed to kick some fellows. I left my blonde hair to cascade freely down my back.
Beauty looked elegant yet badass at the same time. She had on a simple but classy short black sheath dress. I think she got same idea like me, because she wore black stretchable shorts underneath, a pair of black ankle boots, and her blond hair is in a sleek high ponytail.
âLooking good there, Beauty!â I smiled at her.
âYouâre not looking too bad yourself there, honey,â she drawled playfully and held my arm as we walked down the stairs together.
The men are already waiting for us in the foyer
They were all looking spectacular in their jackets with black pants and shoes. My eyes found Eros right away. His intense sapphire eyes were already on mine.
We all decided to use Adonis black Lamborghini
Adonis was driving with Beauty sitting beside him, Arthur was sitting behind them, and Eros and I sat in the third row. Eros wrapped his arm around me, and I rest my head against his shoulder. His smell, and touch calms my nerves.
âDo you have any idea what happened to Alpha Theo and Elder Vincenzo. How are they doing?â I asked reluctantly. I really want not know.
âWell, last time I heard, Theo has a broken arm.â Arthur said me with glee. âThe Elder was still in the Packâs hospital with. injuries in the chest, and some cuts and bruises.â
Oh, Goshâ¦I felt like hiding my face in shame. In all my life, I had never hurt anyone physically. And now Iâve injured the packâs Alpha and the leader of the werewolf council, all in one day!
Eros squeezed my shoulder and tilted my face with his finger âYou know they deserved it, sweetheart.â
My hybrid Tiara is rejoicing. In fact, I think she is doing a happy dance in my head for hunting them but the human part of mne feels some guilt.
We arrived at the packâs house in thirty minutes, and I was stunned to see a large number of the packâs best warriors lining up the driveway. Strong, tall, big muscled, intimidating looking werewolf warriors in full warrior uniform
A lot more standing in formation in front of the packâs house. I heard Arthur snicker⦠Beside me, Eros smiled, baring his straight white teeth and canines.
