The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 89

The doctor threwa wary look and then shot a hesitant look at Eros.

He only shrugged, “Well then leave spain meds for her. If she feels like it, she will have them” Saying so, he

walked out of the room without another word.

Meanwhile, Arthur cto sit beside me. “You are going to be fine, you are strong

| nodded my head and he squeezed my hand before muttering. | will ccheck on you shortly”

Beauty gavea small smile and left. The other servants left too leaving just Clinda with me.

“Would you like to eat something?” She asked but | shook my head

“No, | would like to rest a little.” Glinda cupped my face and replied. “Sure, if you need anything just ring the bell

After she walked out, | let out a sigh and decided to calm down. The pain in my body was not that much or

maybe my body had developed a certain tolerance after going through so much pain

And now that | was alone, my mind kept replaying the whole day of the tspent with Eros and how he was

behaving coldly with me.

But despite his annoying behavior, it felt good to know that Tiara was trying to contact me, and to helpheal.

That meant she had not completely abandoned

I just didn’t know how to reach out to her, | was willing to endure the pain if | would get to meet her. | could not

stand being weak and helpless anymore.

“Please Tiara, if you are listening to me, please know that | want to meet you as much as you are trying. |

promise | will get strong for us.”

| said to myself and closed my eyes. The silence in the room was deafening and it was unlike the inflow of all the

smallest noises bombarding my brain.

| wanted to sleep but it was evading me. Not knowing what to do, | picked up my phone and was surprised to see

a mess waiting for ine.

It was from an unknown number. | opened it and checked the text that said: “Hey, | am Luke. Did you reach

hsafely!”

| immediately replied: “Yes, | did.”

The message was sent a few hours ago and | kept staring at the screen hoping to receive a reply.

When it was close to half an hour that | didn’t receive a message. | gave up and put the phone to the side, but

then | heard at beep

Curious. | quickly pulled it nearand saw another text message. It says: “Take your medicines.”

That's it. There was no name, no introduction, nothing else.

save myself

| stared at that stupid message for a while, wondering what to reply. And then | simply decided to not reply him

at all. | would just convince myself that he was just being considerate, nothing more.

There was another beep and | opened my inbox. It was from Luke. It says. “That is great to hear. So, do you want

to meet again!”

| typed: “Yes.” And hit the send button.

Luke's reply was instant this tGreat. Meetin an hour at Willow's Bar. Use the money to hire a cab and get

there. It is a famous place.

| looked at my leg. It was still hurting and | wondered if | could run away without limping or screaming. | prayed

that my wolf would stop trying to mend me. Now was my chance to run away. | recalled that Olivia and Eros were

probably going out somewhere tonight.

He was going to be busy anyway.

So, | might as well run away. With that thought in mind. | got upand slowly went towards the bathroom, limping

towards it The pain had stopped considerably but I didn’t want to risk it so | took the painkillers just enough to

not makefeel drowsy.

Then | showered and put on loose jeans and a hoodie so that it would givecomfort to run or walk. The

painkillers took their effect and my leg did not hurt a lot while moving and | was not limping anymore.

Maybe the doctor had givena small but strong dosage. While | was getting ready, | received another

message:

“Wear something nice for the bar so that you blend in”

| frowned after reading it. | didn’t feel like wearing a sexy or revealing dress, but then | decided | would look odd

going to a bar and wearing just a hoodie and black

1 stared at the wardrobe and rummaged through it, wondering what to wear. After a few minutes, | found the

perfect dress a knee-length A-line silhouette in a beautiful black colored satin fabric.

It had a modest boat neckline that showed a hint of my collarbones without being too revealing. The sleeves

were a quarter length, adding an elegant touch to the overall look.

The black would allowto blend in the night and not get noticed if | slipped through the shadows.

| decided to highlight the waist gently with a slim black belt, accentuating my figure without going for an overly

sensual look. The flowy skirt of the dress allowed for comfortable movement and did not makelook like |

attention

For jewelry, | chose a pair of small pearl stud earrings that added a touch of elegance to my appearance.

As for shoes, | slipped on classic black sandal with no heel so that they would allowto move effortlessly.

There was an entire section of handbags, purses, and clutches all around and stuffed with things of all possible

colors. | was glad the dress cwith a nice small pocket that | could use to store my phone and the cash.

For my makeup. | went for a natural and radiant look. | opted for a soft smoky eye with neutral shades, a touch of

rosy blush on my checks, and a subtle lip color that enhanced my lips without being too bold.

| left my hair open and decided to take a peek outside. The coast was clear and most of the servants had gone to

sleep.

Since Eros was not home, the rest of the people had decided to go to bed early it seemed.

“Good for me” | thought and slowly walked out of the mansion, uptoeing my way through the huge front yard

and sprinting out of the gate before the guards would notice me.

| had to walk a few minutes before | spotted a cab and as Luke had instructedto inform the driver of the

venue.

He did not ask further questions which meant that it was indeed a famous place. My heart was hammering at the

confusing thoughts swirling through my head wondering how to thank Luke for his generosity.

| took my phone out of my pocket and sent him a message: “On the way to Willow's bar

His reply was instant: “Great. Can't wait to meet you”

| smile at his message, also | was determined to return the rest of the money since | didn’t want so much.

Maybe, | could ask him to referto splace where they were hiring and | could start earning That way |

would have my own money.

The thoughts about Eros and the night | had spent with him were now just a memory. He was probably happily

giving Olivia whatever she wanted so it was high tthat | focused on my life.

| was lost in thoughts and did not even realize that the cab had stopped. Blinking. | looked up outside the car

windows and saw a big neon sign outside an expensive looking place.

“Mise, you have arrived | got out of the car and handed the driver the money but he did not have the change.

“Miss the ride cost you 805 He said and | fumbled.

“80%?” | asked in an incredulous tone and he replied, “Well, it is late night, the charges are on the higher side.”

| found the 100% bill and gave it to him. “Here”

“Sorry miss. | do not have the change” | frowned but before | could answer a hand tapped on my shoulder.

“Are you

in strouble?” | looked up to see a masked man looking at me.

“Uh, do | know you?” | asked and the person took his mask off

“I think so”

“Luke!! What a way to startle me!” | said and he chuckled at that and looked at the driver.

“Keep the change” The driver nodded and left without another word while I looked at Luke with a wide open

mouth.

“What are you? Ssecret billionaire?”

Luke chuckled, “Spend stwithand you will soon find out.”
