All Chapters of The Missing Beta: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

I throw my pen down on the desk, no longer able to keep pretending that I’m not on edge surrounding this call. I pick up my phone, the one I use for rogue communication, and dial the burner’s number. To my surprise, it doesn’t take long for the call to be connected. There’s rustling, and then my breath hitches as her face comes into the screen. I’m tongue-tied, quite literally tongue-tied. As confused as I’ve felt all night, I truly didn’t think my call would be answered. I thought that I’d have to come up with a new plan, which would require me to go in and grab both her and the child. Seeing her face on the screen right now is muddying my thoughts in a good way. I clear my throat and focus on the screen. “So, what happened yesterday? I heard some things.” There’s a quiet that falls over us for a few beats.“I don’t know what you mean.” I quietly sigh, trying to keep my anger in check. “You know I have someone at that pack being my eyes and ears. I know you went to the cells yeste

~Dominic~That issue took much too long. The timing was all wrong because I finally had some private time with my fated mate, and the best part is that the truth was out. I didn’t have to watch myself around her or try to keep things quiet.I can fully be with my fated mate without any restrictions. I already told her about myself, about my past, and she’s still here. I don’t think she will be going anywhere, and that means great things for me.I step onto my floor and slowly make my way to the door. I will admit that I’m kind of nervous right now. It’s weird because I’ve always been someone with all the confidence in the world. Now that I’m going to face my fated mate, I am at a loss.I’m not assuming that anything will happen between us. To be honest, I’m pretty sure that neither one of us is ready to do anything major, bond or not. I just don’t really know how I should conduct myself around her right now.I open the door and walk into my apartment. I quietly close the door behind m

~Jamorea~I wanted to get some fresh air. I could still feel the pull to Dominic, and his scent was thick in the apartment. I couldn’t breathe properly, and I could barely breathe. I figured that a walk outside would be helpful, and it would keep Brackston off my back. I didn’t intend to run into anyone, and I wasn’t planning to talk to anyone. Most people who see me usually just nod at me, but give me a wide berth. I never thought that I’d walk outside and encounter what was just in front of me. If I had imagined it, I would have probably stayed inside. My chest is tight, and my breath is barely coming out. My hands are clenched at my sides, and I don’t like this feeling. You’re jealous.I’m not, Mona. I don’t care. Why are you lying? I’m standing behind a tree, and I want to rip it out of the ground. I watched the entire thing, and I hate that I feel how I feel. I w

~Brackston~I throw another punch at the warrior in front of me. He absorbs the hit, but it’s not even slightly graceful. I motion for him to come at me again, but he looks up from the ground with pain in his eyes. I guess I broke him.I move my head to the side, signaling that he needs to remove himself. This is how it’s been. I’ve been feeling anxious and angry. I’ve come to the training grounds to try to expel this energy, and there’s no one who can keep up with me.I feel unfulfilled, and it bothers me to no end. I know what I want, but I can’t have it right now. If I want my big plan realized, I need to see this through piece by piece. I’ve never been known as a patient man, and that hasn’t changed.I sigh and walk over to my water bottle. I pour water over my head before taking a big drink from the bottle. A throat clears behind me, and irritation immediately sets in. “Uh, sir?”“What?”“You have a phone call.” I turn and snatch my phone out of Teddy’s hand and step to the side.

~Dominic~I sit back and take a sip of my water. I’m starting to get a bit worried, but I’m not sure why that is. Didn’t Jamorea simply go use the restroom? What could possibly happen on the way to the restroom? You saw her before she left. Something is off. I will take care of it, Gideon. Let me handle it. He slinks back into my mind, but doesn’t completely leave. Gideon is right, but I don’t want to address it. I did notice that something was off. We were on the same page before, both of us nervous yet excited about our date. It seemed like in the blink of an eye, her entire demeanor changed. It was almost like she saw a ghost or something. Once Jamorea walked away, I scanned the room to see if there was something I missed. I didn’t see anything, so I let it go. Now, I’m sitting here, waiting for her to return. She’s been gone long enough for me to be concerned. Before I can get up and go looking for her, Jamorea comes back to the table. I can honestly say that she looks worse t
