Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Beta Tyde lay on his back, unable to sleep. He worried endlessly about his beautiful and very fragile mate back at the huge mansion alone and on top of the lonely hill.

His wolf side had sensed that his fated mate was very pure. The Beta worried grew of someone breaking into her mansion, taking advantage of his little virgin mate.

What if someone is attempting to rape her right now, and her phone is out of her reach? Beta Tyde thought distressfully as he immediately sat up.

To ensure she was safe, he raced to her mansion very late in the night in his wolf form. He stood outside listening for any sound of struggles, only to hear her sleeping quite peacefully.

He was glad his fated mate was safe.

Turning around to return home to get some sleep himself, he stopped, now tempted to take a peek at his fated mate sleeping. He fought the urge, running back home.

Yet again, Isabella woke up exhausted. She barely slept last night. For nearly the entire night, she fantasized about her and Beta Tyde making love. She managed to fall asleep at 1 a.m., staring at his number on her phone, thrilled she had it.

She wanted to call him many times last night. Though Beta Tyde told her to call him if she's in any trouble, she felt as if she was in trouble last night—but not the sort of trouble of someone attacking her that the Beta had instructed her to call him about immediately, but another. She needed rescuing from her strong and maddening desire for him, and only he could take away that yearning.

Isabella and her friends are under a tree chatting when she stops to see Beta Tyde's shiny, black car show up, and he comes out. He was well dressed as always and was wearing a white shirt, navy blue pants, and a black, well-polished shoe that complemented his black belt and leather briefcase.

He walked confidently into the school with his shoulders held back and head kept high.

Isabella stopped watching him to hear one of her best friends, Vanessa, calling her.

She turned to look at her.

"So are we going to keep the party at your house this Friday or not?" her best friend asked.

"Yeah, sure," responded Isabella.

While her friend cheered happily, her gaze went to the school entrance; Beta Tyde had disappeared through, and she was now thinking about once hugging him after he had rescued her.

He felt so warm, and his body felt muscular.

At lunch, Isabella is still thinking about Beta, how he was her knight in shining armor after he rescued her from being raped by the three men.

Tweety, another best friend of hers, saw that she seemed so distant lately and gently touched her.

"Are you okay?" she asked, concerned as soon as she'd gotten Isabella's attention.

Before Isabella could answer. Braxton, the school's football captain, came over to their table.

"I heard you're having a party this Friday at 9 pm?" he asked, gazing down at Isabella.

"Yes, and you and your teammates are invited," intervened Vanessa.

Isabella knew Vanessa didn't want Braxton to come to the party. She was only interested in his best friend and co-captain, Josh, coming to the party instead. Vanessa had had a crush on Josh since she was sixteen, and one day wished they could become fated mates.

"Good to see you there, Bella," Todd said, shortening Isabella's name, and she rolled her eyes, loathing him for calling her so.

"I'm going to the bathroom," Isabella said, leaving the table.

Isabella didn't care about the party, for the one she would have loved to be there would never attend. Beta Tyde was an adult and also a high-ranking and respectable wolf; of course, he would never show up there.

The hallway was empty as Isabella walked to the bathroom. Suddenly, a male security guard came out of a classroom and was walking along the hallway. He smiled when he saw Isabella.

Isabella returned an uncomfortable smile and began to walk quickly, but the security guard stopped her in her tracks.

"I thought you didn't come to school today," said the security guard.

"Well, I have," answered Isabella, very afraid, and then gave him another uncomfortable smile.

The security was a very fat and huge man who made Isabella feel so small before him.

"Missing a day of seeing your beautiful face, I felt like dying," said the security guard, which made Isabella feel even more uncomfortable at a male in his 60s flirting with her, a 17-year-old.

"I've got to go," said Isabella, terrifyingly.

As she's about to walk around him, he holds her hand. Immediately, her body stiffens at his touch.

"I've been wanting to tell you all along how much I feel for you, for you're the most beautiful girl I have ever seen," he said.

"Please let me go, Mr. Eren," said Isabella, and she began to look around, hoping for someone to save her. But every student was in the cafeteria having lunch, and the teachers were having theirs in the lounge room.

The security guard obsessed with Isabella began to pull her towards the school's back door. He was so strong that Isabella found it difficult to pull her hand away from his.

He covered her mouth, stopping her from screaming.

Isabella screamed for Beta Tyde within her mind as if he could hear her. Instantly, Beta Tyde came to rescue her. It was as if he had heard her shouting for him within her mind.

He grabbed the security guard's hand, causing him to immediately release Isabella due to the sharp pain.

The security guard cried out and fell to his knee, grimacing as Beta Tyde kept wringing his hand.

"Please stop. I promise not to touch her again," he begged.

"You won't," said the Beta, and he kept wringing his hand until he broke it in a way that will take his wolf a month or more to heal.

Isabella watched, relieved that he'd come to rescue her.

The security had passed out from the pain, and Isabella, thrilled again that Beta Tyde had saved her, ran to hug him.

"Thank you, thank you, again for saving me," she kept saying, hugging him.

Beta Tyde held her by her shoulder, prying her away from him. Her skin felt as soft as a rose petal, as he'd expected. He had to hold her the gentlest, or he would have bruised her skin, given how delicate she was.

Isabella looked at his handsome face as he stared back down at her.

Once more, Beta Tyde felt pity and was overconcerned for his small, young mate, who always fell victim to being so pretty and vulnerable. Although she was a wolf, she resembled the tiniest baby sheep in a wolf world and was in desperate need of protection, for she was too beautiful and petite.

Predators used that as an advantage to assault her.

The Beta then knew the answer as to why the moon goddess made him find her so early. He must protect his fated mate, though it was torturous for him to keep his hand off her.

He stared at her lips, knowing they had never been kissed before.

Abruptly, he let her go and stepped back before losing control of his beast to kiss her and claim her.

He doesn't want his fated mate to think he's a predator like the men who had tried to assault her, for he believes she doesn't find him attractive as yet, for she hasn't yet felt the bond that they are mates.

"Try not to go anywhere alone," he warned her. "And I'll see to it that Mr. Eren will be severely punished for his action towards you. "

Two security guards had come to take Eren away.

Isabella nodded, and she watched him as he walked away.

Isabella knew she was beautiful and that older men found it difficult to keep their hands off her once they saw her. She thought Beta Tyde would have surely done so, like every other male, but he clearly doesn't show any interest in her in that way.

Isabella walked away sadly, wondering if she wasn't beautiful enough for him or if she was too childish. A high-ranking and respectable wolf like Beta Tyde, she assumed he'd be more interested in a more mature wolf. She was far from mature and didn't even act like her age, 17.

She still wore a bra and underwear decorated with her favorite cartoon of ponies.
