– Beta Ford –
### FLASHBACK ###
Beta Ford was in charge of taking the half-witch, Evilene, to her new prison. From the palace’s dungeons, she was taken into the
northern mountains, where they would be isolated from the rest of Taplean.
‘Don’t you feel sorry for me? Beta Ford, look at me,’ Suddenly, as he was resting in the front seat of his car, his warrior driving on
the road, he heard the voice call out to him. He snapped behind the vehicle and saw Evilene smiling, tempting him.
“That’s right. This witch had a natural gift of seduction, Beta Ford reminded himself.
“Try that again, and I’ll double your dose of wolfsbane,” he warned, and the half-witch hissed.
Upon arriving at the prison, Beta Ford instructed the guards on the half-witch’s wolfsbane dose. He did not want Evilene to get
into any of the warriors’ heads.
Sadly, only after a week of leaving Evilene in the new prison, he had already received reports of the witch being given special
treatment.
In the middle of the war, Beta Ford had to return to prison and take care of the matter. However, when he went to see Evilene, he
fell into her trap instead.
Inside Evilene’s prison, Beta Ford was momentarily put in a daze by her seduction. He felt it, how she had gained a little bit of
strength. It meant one of the guards had cut down her wolfsbane doses.
At first, he felt utterly drawn to the witch that he inched closer to her. Despite her state, he found her incredibly attractive. After
minutes of gawking at her, the witch implied how the king belittled him.. No words left her l*ps, but she infiltrated his mind.
‘I will care for you, Beta Ford me and Queen Helen.’
‘Why serve your king when he only cherishes Alpha Kieran?’
‘He is going to name Alpha Kieran the new king? What will King Balthasar do? Travel around the world? Leave you behind? You
have no place in his plans.”
‘Call Queen Helen. She will give you a place in Taplean, which you truly deserve. You can also bring me with you when you go to
Eswen.’
“Beta Ford! Beta Ford!” The voice of his warrior made him snap out of that trance. He managed to return to his senses and
directed the management of Evilene’s jail treatment. Still, the words of the half-witch haunted his sleep, not just because Evilene
suggested it but because he also had those same questions for the king.
Why would King Balthasar give up his throne? Werewolves could live for over a century, and the king could still bear a son. Why
give it all up and give the throne to Alpha Kieran?
Beta Ford knew of his plans to pursue Queen Avery after the war, but was it necessary to give up his throne? When that
happens, what will become of him?
Fear crept into his heart because he gave his life to the king. He had not found a mate and chose not to have one. His life was
dedicated to serving the throne, but it was clear that Alpha Kieran would choose Beta Jaxon as his right hand.
Despite having these thoughts planted in his head, Beta Ford resumed defending Taplean. He became swamped when the
Golden Eye Pack had been sieged.
Alpha Kieran, at that time, was in Azenna, chasing his wife. With Alpha Kieran gone, Beta Ford felt more belonged, leading the
fight with the king. In the past, they had always relied on Alpha Kieran to

be at the front, but not now, when they had no choice. Alpha Kieran chose to prioritize his family, and deep down, Beta Ford
somehow wished, it stayed that way.
While fighting for Taplean, Beta Ford felt accomplished. He was praised by people, who thanked him for his efforts in the war. He
finally understood why many called Alpha Kieran a hero. Alpha Kieran was feared for his ruthlessness on the battlefield, but he
was always looked up to for saving the nation.
Everything took a complete turn when Kieran returned, saving the palace. Together with his luna, they kept innocent children
who were used as hostages by Helen.
The amount of praise Kieran and Alexia received stung his heart. Even the king gave Kieran and Alexia high commendations.
The townspeople already looked up to them as the future king and
queen.
When Helen called him one night, he gave in and listened to whatever it was she had to offer. Helen offered him many options,
including taking down the king, which was different from his intention. He will always love his king. Beta Ford simply wanted
Kieran to be out of the way, at least, until everyone would see his worth.
His plan was simple; to make Helen think he was truly on their side, but after they would help take care of Alpha Kieran, he
would stab Helen in the back and win the war for Taplean and his king! He would gain as much information about Eswen’s war
plans, and when they arrived in Taplean, he would emerge victorious against King James and his men. If Kieran were gone, he
would be the
hero!
“I will help, only if you promise me that no harm will come to Alpha Kieran. Just take him. Keep him a prisoner!” Beta Ford said
on the other line. “Use another witch to control him. Make use of him, but do not kill him!”
Despite his jealousy of Kieran, he had a soft spot for Alexia. After all, Alexia was Queen Avery’s daughter, and the latter was his
king’s true mate. If Kieran died, Alexia would be in unbearable pain. that could hurt her unborn child.
“I see,” Helen answered. “So you want to be a traitor with a conscience?”
“F**k you, Helen. If you disagree with my conditions, then forget it!” Beta Ford barked.
“Fine. Fine,” Helen said. “Just help the vampires get through the border, and they will take care of taking Kieran -”
“Can they handle him?” Beta Ford asked. “You know how strong he is.”
“Trust me. We have found a way to weaken him. After all, we have the wise elder from Azenna to help us. Don’t worry,” Helen
confirmed.
Unfortunately for Beta Ford, Helen lied to him. They were not going after Alpha Kieran. They were after his son! His decision to
cooperate with Helen came to bite him!
Helen threatened to tell King Balthasar, and Beta Ford could not have that. He had regretted cooperating with Helen and letting
his jealousy get the best of him. He was trapped and did not know what else to do. Thus, he took it upon himself to resolve the
matter to clean up after his mistakes.
First, Beta Ford gave Helen a different war plan, leading them to believe they would win. Second, he meant to be at the front of
the battle and kill Helen and King James before the two would have the chance to reveal his betrayal. He hoped that by ending it
himself, he could still make up for his mistake.

PRESENT.
Beta Ford sucked in a deep breath, telling the king, “I am willing to die if I must, until my last breath. I wanted to keep my
reputation intact. I had planned to kill Helen and King James. In that way, I
“I swear to the Moon Goddess, I have regretted everything. I had not revealed the war plans to them. I am not lying. I have the
truth serum in me,” Beta Ford added.
He was still down on his knees, asking, “I understand if you will not forgive me, My King, but know, from the bottom of my heart, I
fully regretted what I had done.”
He looked up at Kieran and said, “I am sorry for the trouble this has caused you, your wife, and your son, Alpha Kieran.”
Beta Ford saw the pain in the king’s eyes. It all the more added to his regret. He knew he had hurt his king. He was about to say
more when a warrior reported, “Alpha Kieran? My King? Eswen warriors. have entered the mines. Some have disembarked from
their ships, taking small boats coming to the shores.”
He watched as the king took a deep breath. Balthasar shut his eyes before turning to Alpha Kieran. He said, “Let’s go, Kieran.
Let’s not keep our warriors waiting!”
“What about Beta Ford’s platoon?” Kieran asked.
“I will lead the second platoon,” the king suggested.
The thought of his king going head to head in a battle worried Beta Ford. He requested, “Let me, My King! Don’t go to the front.
Let me fight this battle! Please, let me redeem myself!”
