Chapter 131

 At those words, everybody looked at me in confusion, even Arthur.

 Not just them, but even Eden blinked and looked at me in surprise “She was offered to me as a gift by alpha

 Griffin of the Silvermoon pack. He, unfortunately, could not attend the meeting today.”

 Whispered conversations broke out between the men and Arthur could only shake his head when my gaze fell on him.

 “Is she your breeder, King Eros?” One of them was prompt to ask, and I blurted out, “Yes” without thinking.

 But when my gaze fell on Eden, I saw the smile disappear from her face. To make matters worse, her face looked red again, but it was because of humiliation.

 I saw the way she was fighting back the tears that threatened to spill out of her eyes and in that moment knew I had fucked

 I wove a hand through my hair and announced. The meeting is over. You all may leave now.”

 None of them needed further pushing as they got up from the chairs and hastily left.

 Eden also got up from the chair and was about to leave when I said, “Not you, Eden. We have to talk.” [Eden’s Pov] 

 I had been so happy a few minutes ago because today was supposed to be an important day in my life.

 I had trained hard for more than a month, followed everything Eros had asked me to do, and was waiting for the full moon to show up and my wolf to re–awaken.

 For the first time in my life, I had taken the pains to dress up. Granted, had worn a nice dress at the ball and even at the party that I went to with Luke, but today was a special day for me.

 I had wanted to walk with my head held high amongst the other alphas for once.

 I had simply wanted to be regarded as a strong and powerful girl, not an unwanted bastard of a child, an omega, or a wolfless person

 In fact, I had not even wanted toe to this meeting.

 I was happy with dressing up and then offering some silent prayer to the moon Goddess to grant me my wolf.

 But the way Eros had introduced me to the others made me feel hurt. The moment he called me “his” my stomach had fluttered but when he added the word ‘breeder‘ it made that fluttering die down instantly.

 Adding to that, I was also reminded of how our lives are now different. Technically, he was not at–fault. That was the truth. But it hurt nheless.

 The crowd of the other people were leaving the room quietly, and I did not want to make a fuss in front of everyone, so I stayed quiet when he uttered that.

 I had seen the way his eyes had locked me in ce, and those sapphire eyes re with desire.

 But like always, I knew that we may never be the same as our previous lives. It made me feel like an omega all over again. Eros stood by the chair, his hand resting on the cushion as the long line of people left the meeting hall.

 Chapter 131

 When thest of them left. I tried to slink away, but he was quick. Eros slinked in the narrow space between me and the door

 and looked at me.

 “I thought I asked you to stay back” He said, looking at me intently.

 “Let me go.” I said without wanting to look up. I was barely trying to hold back my tears and I did not want to give him the satisfaction of how much he affected me. The Eros I knew then is different from the one in front of me.

 But Eros took a step forward and closed the door behind him. “If I ask you to stay, you stay.” He said, locking the door.

 Coiling my hands into fists. I looked up at him, my eyes a little watery. “What do you want to talk about?” I asked, not caring that I was not supposed to use this tone with the King

 Eros took a step forward, and I retreated a step back again. He didn’t answer, but kept moving forward and I kept retreating until there was no space to move back. The heel of my sandal hit the wall, and I softly bumped into the wall behind me.

 Despite the anger and irritation bubbling inside of me, I felt my heart quicken What are you doing?” I asked, and he raised a hand slowly, almost in a deliberate fashion. He was two heads taller than me, so he had to bend a little to look at me.

 Eros’s left hand rested on the wall, directly above my head and he leaned forward, his tall figure towering over me. “Looking at you.” He answered, and that weird fluttering in my stomach returned again.

 “I am sorry, I have to go” I said and tried to walk away but his hand shot out and grabbed mine, pulling me back in the same

 spot again My heart almost leaped out of my throat at the unexpected touch that sent shivers up my spine. It was deli

 It was maddening.

 Slowly he stepped back, and told me “I am cursed, little one and Beauty thinks you’re the only one who could save me. The moon goddess- got angry with me for something I did in my past live,”

 “What? What did you do?” I asked, but he shook his head.

 He had been so secretive about it all this time and now he just told me half truth. I only looked at him, and his concerned. face that looked so gorgeous up close, waiting for more exnation, for more words to tumble out of his mouth.

 Then why hide it from me all this time? And why did I feel that he was not telling me all of it?

 “If you knew what I truly was, you wouldn’t want me. He said and I could only stare at him nkly The words Beauty had spoken were ringing in my ears, of how falling for him was risky The curse states that he might never be able to turn into a human again, and slowly be a true animal.

 I felt I had to know what was goin me away?” I blurted out.

 on since he was here, in front of me, just like he said a while ago. “Are you going to push

 I was not going to ask him that, but then why did those words leave my mouth?

 As if in response to my question, he leaned a bit more, his forehead almost touching mine. Those blue orbs were burning with a fire that wanted to consume me, devour me.

 “I am trying but I am failing He answered, and those words cut through my heart..
