Betrayed by My Beta Mate

34 Times Up

Pheobe POV

I close my eyes after my communication is broken with Lily. I feel like I just ran a marathon. Reaching someone you have no tie to is difficult. The only reason it worked is because I held onto Iris while I searched for her. “Pheobe, are you alright?” “I’m alright, just exhausted.” “Did you reach her?” “Yes, and hopefully she will believe that you’re really with me because I’m sure that Lucas has realized where we are.” “Well being amongst humans should buy us some level of safety from him.” I laugh to myself, she has no idea how wrong she is. “My brother would think nothing of killing every human in this city.” “He believes that humans are ants to be stepped on by the strong.” “Please don’t take offense but how are you related to that evil ba**ard.” I laugh “just lucky I guess.” She takes my hand again and I look at her. “You are nothing like him and I am so grateful that you helped me.” “You are not defined by where you come from, only where you go.” I smile, just in a day Iris is starting to look better. “I couldn’t watch him keep torturing you.” “He has no mercy.” “He killed our father to take over the coven, I know he did.” “My father was a black magic witch but he was nowhere as evil as Lucas.” “My mother has no idea and she would never believe me even if I told her what I saw the day father died.”

Flashback

I walk down the hallway toward my father’s office. I can hear him arguing with Lucas. “You had no right to take his beloved in trade.” “She is of no use to you.” “Lily is the one with the power that can make you more powerful.” “Why do you care father?” “Suddenly you have grown a conscious.” “Be careful how you speak to me Lucas.” “I am still in charge of this coven so you will do as I say and return Iris to her coven.” “We will find Lily without her.” Lucas laughs “I don’t care what you are, I will do what I want father.” I hear him stomping toward the door and I hide inside a room looking through the crack in the door. Lucas stomps down the hall with my father on his heels. I stay a safe distance but follow them. Once they are away from the mansion, Lucas turns to my father.

stomach at his words. I turn to head back and notice something on the ground. I brush the leaves a side and an amethyst ring is lying at my feet. I felt drawn to the ring. I pick it up, placing it in my pocket. I rush into the mansion looking for my mother. I find

Flashback Over

I had no idea that your father tried to help me.” “I still don’t understand how your father knew about Lily being special.” “I really don’t know Iris.” She pulls me into a hug and I enjoy the feeling of comfort. She pulls back and she heads over the dresser to pick up a menu. “Alright, let’s get something to eat because I’m

I feel someone is trying to connect to me. I pray that it’s Lily. Maybe she is strong enough to reach me. I relax my mind. “Well dear sister, I didn’t think you had it in you.” “F**k you Lucas.” “You are a monster.” “Mother may not want to see it, but I know what you did.” He laughs “oh Pheobe, you are too good for your own good.” “I am coming for you and that b**ch.” “If you thought what I did was bad before it is nothing compared to what I will do when I have my pet back.” “I will die before I let you take her back to that hell.” “If that’s what you want, you already know mother will believe me if I tell her some dirty wolf killed you.” He cuts the link and any appetite I had is gone. After I tell Iris what he said, I go to lie
