Betrayed by My Beta Mate

4 Friends

Amelia POV

I grab a sundress from my bag and sandals so I’m ready when Lily gets here. I sit on the couch and about an hour later a knock sounds on the door. I look out the peep whole first, but it’s not Lily. It’s not Atlas either, so I open the door. “Hi, Amelia, right” the young man says. “Yes, how do you know my name?” “Sorry I’m John.” “Lily asked me to bring you some dinner and to let you know she’ll be up as soon as she can.” “We had some rowdy guests she’s dealing with.” He pushes the cart in that I didn’t even notice he had. This time it only has one covered dish on it. “Thank you, John.” “You’re welcome, just call the desk if you need anything else.” “I will” I say before I shut the door locking it. John is human, so I have no reason to think he knows who I am or who Atlas is. Besides, I’m starving and the food smells good. I’m always starving anymore. I was worried, with all that’s happened, I wouldn’t be able to eat, but thankfully I still have my appetite. I lay my hand on my bump. Are you making mommy hungry bean? I take a seat and uncover the plate. Oh, my goddess, it’s chicken Alfredo. I love pasta and white sauce is my favorite. I start eating with gusto. I’m almost done when a knock sounds on the door again.

I go and look out the peep hole and this time it’s Lily. She comes in and sees my eaten plate. “I’m glad you enjoyed the food.” “I did, I hope you got to eat something too.” “Don’t worry about me I’m not growing a person.” “I’ll eat when we get to my apartment.” “Are you ready to go see the apartment?” “Absolutely” I say and we head down to her car. “There’s actually an open apartment three doors down from mine.” “That’s great, I’ll know my neighbor” I laugh. We pull into a parking garage attached to the apartment building. “You’ll have a card to get into the parking area.” “This apartment complex is pretty secure.” “The owner really cares about people.” “Do you remember how I said people helped me when I didn’t know anyone?” “Yes, I do” I say. “The owner of the building was one of those people.” “That’s wonderful that he actually cares about the people that rent from him.” “I’m sure that isn’t a common thing.”

the third floor. We pass two doors and stop in front of the third. The apartment reads 315 on the door. “My apartment is 317” Lily says. I smile because I’m really glad that I met Lily. He opens the door and we head inside. I look around and honestly, I love it.

Lily says. She must have seen the sadness on my face. “No, I was thinking about something else.” “I would love to go shopping with you.” “I’m not going to pressure you to talk to me but know that you can if you ever want to.” “I can’t thank you enough for all the kindness and your friendship.” “So, it’s a date then, shopping tomorrow” Lily says. We drive back to the hotel since I can’t really stay in my apartment until I get a bed. I get out of the car and lean down in the window. “Thank you, again Lily.” “What time should I be ready for

the phone I laid on the table. I think about the last conversation I had with my mother. I think about not seeing them and having this pup without them. “Why don’t you just call them Amelia?” “They aren’t the ones that hurt you” Star says. “They are going to want me to come home and that can’t happen.” “I know my mother thinks I’m wrong because none of us thought Atlas could do such a thing.” “Amelia, your parents love you.” “If they understand what he did they would support you.” “You can make them understand that you are not wrong.” I think about it for a few minutes before I pick the phone up.

done.” Now I’m definitely confused. Atlas is as guilty as Freya. “Freya is not to blame for Atlas’s actions.” “He was a willing participant in the affair.” “Amelia, I’m not talking about the lies she told you.” “Freya killed Elias in cold blood.” “She killed her own mate because she wanted yours.” The room feels like its closing in on me and I feel sick to my stomach. I can’t have heard my mother correctly. “Mom” I say before a voice I never wanted to hear is on the phone. “Love please I can explain everything.” She called that ba**ard after all I told her what he has done. “F**k you Atlas, I heard you with her.” “I swear to you Amelia I would never touch another woman.” “You may have my parents fooled but I know what I heard.” “Forget about me and my pup.” “I intend to forget about you, you cheating pr**k.” I hang up and

Atlas POV

there, her father lets me in. Amelia’s mother hands me the phone. I heard her tell Amelia that Freya killed Elias before she saw me. I can’t worry about that right now. I plead with her to believe me but she won’t listen. When she says she intends to forget me, Silas is at the surface. The line goes dead and I throw the phone, breaking it against the wall. I look at my mother-in-law and she looks shocked and terrified. I push Silas down. “I’m sorry” I say to her and my father-in-law. “I will replace the phone.” She lays her hand on my arm. “Give her a few days and hopefully she’ll call back.” “I’m losing my mind, I can’t lose her and my pup.” She pulls me into a hug. “Everything is going to work out, Atlas.” “Thank you, I don’t know

has supported me since Elias’s death. “Neal, Amelia called her parents again.” “We need to find her.” “Have the trackers been able to find out anything?” “The trackers went to all the human cities and packs within two hours of the pack and have found nothing.” I slam my fist down on my desk “then tell them to go three hours” I yell. ” Alpha, please calm down.” “We will find her but you need to have faith.” “You said she called her parents, we should be able to get the
