Werewolves chose their mates and took an oath sealing the bond, the children born only then were given the legitimate status.

As Beta’s mate only when I gave birth to his legitimate children would I be given the title of Beta female.

He never wished to let me hold on to that title.

It was as if I had been humiliated enough the words made me grit my teeth. What a fool I had been in such a blind love. After that, Ashton quickly disconnected the call and entered my room, thinking I was still fast asleep.

When he saw me sitting straight, staring right into his soul, he was stunned.

“Bella, when did you get up?” Ashton asked, his eyes not meeting mine as if plagued by guilt and shame.

I didn’t speak a word and got up, going straight outside the room, disgusted even with his presence.

Seeing me not speaking anything, Ashton sighed feeling content that his plans were still good for I had not overheard him.

But then feeling my eyes watching him, he said, "Please don’t be angry, Bella. I wasn’t in my right state of mind yesterday.”

I didn’t speak a word resisting the urge to punch him in the face.

He waited for a reply and when I refused to answer he looked at me coldly.
