A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 11 - Jake
I came off the phone to Rose with a smile on my face and Jaxx purring in my mind. He seems happy to know that his mate is close by, yet unsettled too that she is not by his side. Ok, she is not with us, and this is definitely unsual circumstances, but we are working on it. I am hoping to sort that with time.I guess listening to everything she said I can only agree that she deserves a little time to take in what has happened, and get her things under control and in order before making any commitments to being with me. Especially when being with me means moving to a different country. It is a big change to expect anyone to have to take on, especially a young woman that is a successful business woman.So I am willing to give her that time. Give her that space and that freedom to do what she needs to get everything in order, ready to come and be my mate. Or that is what I am hoping anyway. She has not exactly agreed to that as yet, but I am hoping that is what she will do. And I am reall

I saw Jake leaving his house. I thought he must have been held up at work when he hadn't shown in the packhouse for our gaming session we had arranged. And his mindlink was blocked. So I assumed he was still in work. Like had happened in the past. So I headed up to see my sister knowing she had a day off today, or I say a day off, I mean a day doing her never ending amount of coursework she was completing now her course was coming to a close.So am I to assume that he hadn't been at work? And just didn’t want to come gaming? Surely he could have just let me know? I am a little offended by that, I have to say. I enjoy our time chilling out together. He is one of the few friends I have made since moving here. And up until this had happened, he always seemed to have time for me.I was just leaving Gabe and Esme’s after having a coffee with Esme. I had hoped to spend a little longer with her, but she looked shattered, so I decided to finish my drink and head off home. As I was beginning t

I finally let Jaxx out through the forest at the top of the packland, up near the borders where I know I won’t be disturbed. Needing to feel the pain of pushing myself to my limit running up there, loving the sensation of the breeze through Jaxx’s fur as he paces through the trees at speed. I could still sense he was on edge, but allowing him out to run helped. He could let some of the unused energy up speeding around the forest, and in hunting small prey within the forest too. The fact he was not doing well with this showed how distracted his mind must be, as normally he was a refined hunter. Meeting Rose had clearly affected him. Clearly playing on his mind. Though it was still playing on my mind, so it is understandable.This was not how we had thought meeting our mate would be. This is not how it is supposed to be. Though I know you can't plan for everything to be perfect, this was beyond strange and it has really set me on edge. Something told me it didn't feel right, but I was t

I am just settling down to relax in the hotel, though I have to say it is quite the dump. Meeting my "mate" had completely ruined my plan of asking their advice on better quality hotels in the area, so I am stuck here tonight now at least.I managed to enjoy a bubble bath to relax, which was something after the long day at least. A day of flying and then going straight into a meeting was far from ideal, though certainly bad planning on my father’s part, I have to say. I had asked that the flight was a few days earlier, though I had also asked for a better hotel. Clearly, my opinion means very little to my father right now, so long as I am out here doing his job for him while he sits at home on his lazy behind,enjoying the money I am bringing in now for him from the business.What boils my blood more than anything is my father would not lower himself to stay in hotels like this, yet he expects his own daughter to stay here and put herself at risk of catching heaven knows what, from hav

I pace the footpath outside the coffee shop nervously, having arranged to meet Rose here. Should I really be nervous coming to meet my mate? This all seems so foreign and strange to me. I don’t know what to expect or what I should be feeling. I am almost certain it should not feel this difficult and awkward though… my doubts nag away at me.I don’t know why but my mind has been nagging away with doubts and questioning over whether this feels right since she said she needed space and time. The fact Jaxx feels on edge over his fated mate and her actions too, is only adding to these doubts. This is not how I envisioned meeting my mate would be, but I am too embarrassed, I guess, to tell anyone. I already know what Knox thinks about it all, going off his initial reaction. So, no doubt the others would be the same.If I go along with what she wants, are they going to see me as letting her walk all over me? But then, if I want to make a go of things with my fated mate like I should try to,
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 16 - Rose
Well, I decided to meet him after so much contemplation. I truly was so close to nearly cancelling. I woke to a text from him telling me how much he was looking forward to seeing me – I mean, how pathetic?!And now I have met him, he is doing nothing but trying far too hard. I mean he is clearly a nice guy, which yes, there is nothing wrong with, but isn’t it a little boring? Anthony has some attitude and moodiness to him, it keeps things interesting. We clash and it makes things fun, I find. This boy is such a try hard.He may as well just beg me to be his mate, that is nigh on what he is doing right now. But, I will go along with it, until I can look into him, his pack, and decide what is best for me. I have been offered this opportunity for a reason. But I still think the background I am from is far too good for this neanderthal of a man. That is certainly what he comes across as when he talks.We sit down at the coffee shop, having ordered the food, I allowed him to pay, let him f

Well, we had managed to sit and have some breakfast and chat a little. She did not seem willing to give much away. I had not really learned much more than I already knew. Did not know whether she wanted me or not. Jaxx was just as unsettled, if not more so, which is making me real anxious, which is not a sensation I am massively used to, and I have to say, I do not like it, not one little bit.I truly thought talking to her would help. But it hadn’t. We had spoken, she had told me bits. Until her phone had rang, that was. She had walked off to answer it. I have sat at the table since, waiting patiently for her to return.Though my patience was beginning to wear out now. She had been gone fucking ages. She had gone to stand outside to answer her call, which yeah, I get, as the coffee shop had music playing, but I can't even see her now, she is not anywhere to be seen. I have long since finished my coffee. The food is cold and drying up. I am beginning to wonder if she is even going to
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 18 - Jake
After finishing part of the stack of paperwork on my desk in my office, my brain was beginning to feel somewhat frazzled, not that it takes much at the moment, I have to admit, so I decided it was time to head to the kitchen to make myself a coffee when my phone buzzed.I took it from my pocket and looked at it, wondering who would be texting me. Most people in the pack use the mind link.-------------------JakeSorry I dashed off, the call was urgent, business related, could not get off to come and explain myself. Felt ever so rude, so I do apologize. I hope you can forgive me. Then my phone died, and I have been waiting for it to recharge to allow me to message to explain myself.As I said, I am truly sorry and hope you will forgive me. I hope the chat we had answered some of your questions. I am having to return home earlier than planned now, and will be flying home tomorrow now, so it is doubtful I will see you before that, but you have my contact number and I will forward my ema
