Chapter 74
[Eros Pov]
I stepped outside and heard loud sounds of the wolves howling. What the I was going on?
I threw around a confused look and I saw they all had a dazed look on their faces. My beta had left the ball to see off some guests and girls whose packs were quite far from my mansion.
I didn’t want anyone to get hurt so I instructed them to drop the ladies home safely. That left just me in the mansion along with the servants and maids.
The wolves were howling and trying to trespass my front yard but when I showed up, a few of them put their tails in between their legs and ran away.
All this while, I could also smell the scent wafting at me as the soft breeze carried it to me. My feet turned around automatically and I saw myself walking in the direction of the scent.
After five minutes. I was in the backyard looking around through the dark to ascertain the source. And then I heard a noise. a soft whimper. My ears pricked and I immediately launched myself into the bushes.
When I parted the leaves, I saw Eden lying on the ground, twitching again
When I reached her, she immediately got on her fours and the intensity of the scent hit me with full force.
Eden was in heat and that was the reason the wolves were all howling around the mansion.
“Fuck” I cursed in my mind as I tried to make her get up.
u cannot be here. I told you to stay inside the room, right?” I asked but she was not in a condition to listen.
“Eden, you
“I am…I am sorry. I tried but..but L…this is too much. She tried to explain but was probably feeling too shy to speak those words out loud to me.
The wolves were drawn in by her scent as she was an unmated female and they wanted to mark her. And I could not let that happen.
Not because I wanted to mark her but she was not ready yet. Her transformation hadn’t been complete and her body was probably in an overdrive,
I hadn’t smelled such a strong scent of any unmated female before and I had been around plenty of females when they awakened their wolves.
Something was clearly wrong with her and her wolf. But now was not the time to make her understand that.
Eden’s eyes lit up with desire as she stared at me and crawled near my legs.
“I am not sure what is happening to me. I have this…this urge to…to… She tried to speak and tugged at her hair, trying to explain her predicament to me.
To want to be claimed by a wolf. I understand” I said and I felt a slight tinge of relief flooding her eyes.
“I am sorry, I think I should stay away from you for tonight. She said and got up from the ground.
But I stopped her, “Are you out of your mind? I know what you are going through. Your transition has been weird and your hormones are messing with you. Do you think I would let you go alone in the woods?”
However, Eden shook her head. “You don’t understand. I…I am feeling things…odd things…I don’t think I should be with

you right now.
Oct 24
She said as her eyes tried to hide the desire pooling in her eyes. As much as I knew that it was her heat forcing her to feel all those things. I was happy that all of that was now directed to me.
Ever since had seen her, I was intrigued by her and now she had blossomed into a wolf…or at least starting to.
The wolves let out a howl outside again and I didn’t wait for her to respond. I simply pulled her close and threw her on my shoulder as I began walking inside…
On the way I instructed the servants to keep all the doors and windows perfectly locked so that no intruder would slip in.
After that. I walked back upstairs as she tried to get off my hold. And the fact that her scent was even closer to my face, making me lose my restraint was killing me.
1 coiled my hands into fists as I climbed up the last flight of stairs and threw the door open with my foot.
But the problem was that I did not want her to wake up tomorrow and regret this decision. So, I nodded, “Fine, I will find you a sleeping pill
I began walking outside but she pulled me close again. “Please, can you not leave me alone tonight?” I feel anxious and
nervous
“Sure, I will return with the pill shortly,” I said and walked out. When I returned she had changed into a nightgown.
She looked perplexed with her hormones driving her crazy while her rational brain not wanting to just give in to the desire and just let anyone mark her.
She spoke as she buried her face in my shirt.
Whoops, I had forgotten that. She was also going through a sensory overload.
Usually, the females go in heat a little late but since she was a late bloomer, I think everything was happening to her at once. Eden was afraid and she looked at me with uncertain eyes. I held her face in my hands and cupped her innocent face.
“Yeah, just know that all of this is part of what you are now. You are a werewolf, just like us
I smiled at her and she gave me a radiant smile while trying to not sob.
“Thank you. You are a very well–built Hybrid as well” She said, trying to hide her blush. And Beast growled in the back of my head.
“She’s complimenting me. I want to meet her He insisted but I only glared at him.
