Betrayed by My Beta Mate

32 Relax

Amelia POV

Once we reach the room, the exhaustion starts to hit me. This whole day has been tiring, to say the least. It weighs heavy on my heart that Elder Brandon lost his life because of Atlas and that ba**ard Thomas. I know in my heart it’s not my fault, but it doesn’t make my heart hurt any less for the pain this is causing everyone. Lincoln is trying to protect me from his feelings, but I can still feel his anger and pain. “Amelia” Lily says, and I’m brought out of my thoughts. I look at her and she places her hands on my shoulders. “Atlas and Thomas are going to pay just as Max did for all they have done.” She wraps me in a hug and I give in just feeling her love for me. A knock sounds and Lily pulls back looking confused. She heads to the door “who is it?” “I have your dinner, ma’am” a female voice says and Lily opens the door. “Ma’am the Alpha told me to bring you two something to eat and drink.” “He was worried about the Luna and his pup.” I smile at how sweet my mate is. Lily lets her in and she sets a tray with the most delicious smelling food on the table in the corner of the room. Chicken parm, angel hair pasta, garlic bread, and chocolate cake. “I’m in heaven right now” I say smiling at the omega. “What is your name?” She looks at me with shock at my question. “Maureen, Luna.” she says. “I made you this lavender tea to help you relax after all the stress today.” “I still can’t believe that Max betrayed the pack and killed an Elder.”

Packs are all the same news runs like wild fire, both bad and good through the wolves. I look at her with sympathy. It’s always hard when a pack member goes against their pack. I rest my hand on her shoulder. “Thank you, for all of this”, I motion to everything she just placed on the table. “I assure you I will do all I can to help the Alpha protect the pack.” I notice a fresh mark on her neck which makes me smile. I’m glad she found her other half and I pray they treat her well. “Congratulations” I say and she looks at me with confusion. “Your mark, it looks pretty fresh.” “Congratulations on finding your mate.” A look passes over her face before she smiles at me. “Thank you, Luna” she says before she excuses herself. We sit down and dig into the delicious food. I didn’t realize how hungry I was until the food was here in front of me. I clean my plate, eat half the cake, and drink all the tea. “I am seriously stuffed”, I say rubbing my belly, and Lily laughs.

your pup in harm’s way.” “That’s the kind of woman she is.” Her face falls and I pull her to sit next to me. “Your mother wanted to protect you because that’s what a mother does.” “Lorraine is absolutely right, our pups come before anything.” “I just hope that all that has happened to her does not destroy the spirit my mother has always had” Lily says. “If she is anything like

into the bathroom and turn on the water, filling the tub. Once I’m undressed, I slip down into the water. I place my hands on my bump as I relax into the water. I can feel my eyes get heavy and despite my efforts to not give into sleep, I do. Pain like I’ve never felt brings me out of the peaceful sleep and I grip my stomach. What the hell is that? It must be false labor. I put up a block because I know if Lincoln feels this, he will be distracted from what he is doing. I have at least another month before our pup can come. The pain begins to subside and I start to relax again. “Star” I say. “I’m here with you Amelia.” “What is that pain, is it false labor?” “I don’t know but I think we need to get checked by the pack doctor to be safe.” She’s right, I manage

think it’s just false labor but it really hurts.” “It’s ten times worse than the pain of my ex-mate’s infidelity.” “Today was very stressful and I’m sure it’s ok but we thought I should be checked” I say pointing to Lily who looks like a mother hen standing with her arms crossed. Once I’m in bed, they hook me up to machines and another pain hits. I see a look of concern flash across Dr. Neilson’s face. She turns to me, “Amelia you are in labor.” I start to panic, “my pup” I say and she takes my hand. “We are going to try to stop the labor but you are far enough along that if we can’t stop labor your pup has a good chance of being

is so strong, but right now she is afraid. I hate that there is nothing I can do to change what is happening. I take her hand in mine. “I’m going to go see where the doctor went”, Lily says. I lean down placing my head against hers. “I’m sorry I wasn’t there Amelia.” “Lincoln, Lily was with me and believe me, she, got me here faster than you could”, she laughs. She is trying to make me feel better, but until I know that she and my pup are safe, that won’t be happening.

is ready.” “He is developed and a very good size like most Alpha wolves at this stage.” My shoulders relax at her words and I wipe a tear that runs down Amelia’s cheek. “Thank you, Dr. Neilson”, I say and she leaves the room. I place my
