Betrayed by My Beta Mate

39 Rogue Plus Two

Unknown POV

I wrap my arms around my mother and daughter as the warriors drag us to the cells. I wish we had never rested near this f**king pack. We had been running for the last few hours and I knew Penny would need to rest. I cannot let those ba**ards find us. I refuse to be his personal breeder. I still don’t understand why he wants me so desperately when many of the other rogue she-wolves would be willing to do his bidding. There is no way he could ever know about my gift because I have never told anyone what I can do. My mother is the only one who knows about my abilities and she would never tell anyone. Once we walk down stairs, Penny starts to cry and I pick her up, holding her close to my chest. “Mama it’s dark in here” she says in her tiny voice. She is just about three years old and she is the sweetest little girl. I hate that she is mixed up in all of this and I will die before I let these wolves hurt my pup. The warrior opens the door to the cell and ushers us inside. Thankfully, he isn’t cruel to us and when he locks the cell, he says nothing. I notice we are not alone down here. The cell next to us has a few wolves who definitely smell of pack. One looks severely injured and the others look worried.

The men look toward us and my mother grabs my arm. “Don’t even think about speaking to them or using your gift.” “If they put their own pack down here, imagine what they must have done.” I love my mother, she is very protective of me and Penny. We are the only family she has left. She wasn’t honest with the Alpha, but he would never have believed us if he knew we were from a collective. We aren’t here spying for the collective. That part was true, but he didn’t seem like the most reasonable Alpha to explain the real reason we ran. A few minutes later, we hear the door lock and we are all alone with no guards. “Are you alright” one of the men ask in our direction. He is young and his question seems of genuine concern. “Don’t you answer them.” “They don’t care about us, you know how pack wolves feel about rogues”, my mother whispers. “Mom, we are in no position to be judging these pack wolves.” “Maybe if we help their friend, they will help us.” She looks past me “they are in the same position we are so just stay quiet and think about how we can get out of this wretched cell” she says. I hear a moan and turn to see the man spitting up blood.

pleads with me not too but I can’t just watch this man die if I can help him. “Can you bring him closer to me.” The men pick him up and lay him down so I can reach through the bars. I look back to ensure there is no guards to see what I’m about to do and there isn’t. I reach my hand through the bars, placing it over the wound. The glow begins and the energy flows from my hand into the man. After a few seconds, I pull my hand back and step near Penny. She puts her arms out to me and I

looks over and he smiles “thank you for saving me.” I nod and we take a seat on the cot with my mother. I know she is upset with me for showing these men what I’m capable of, but she will get over being mad. A few minutes later, I hear the door open and three men walk down the stairs. They come to stand in front of the cell the men are in and we stay quiet. Penny lays her head on my chest and we just

Walker POV

am losing blood too fast. I can feel myself fading. “Walker, you need to hold on, I’m trying to heal you” Rowan is growling at me. “That ba**ard is everything Amelia said he is and he needs to be stopped.” I can’t even respond. I feel so weak. I close my eyes and pray that this isn’t the end. Jacob is putting pressure on the wound and I’m glad I was able to stop Atlas from doing this to him. I am not old by any means, but Jacob is only nineteen. I have had thirty-five years of this life and if that’s all the goddess sees fit to give me, then so be it. “Stop talking like that and fight to stay alive” Rowan says. “It is not our time, we still have more to do.”

my eyes at him. The goddess has bigger things to worry about than saving us. I’m finally able to flutter my eyes open and the men help me to the cot. I look in the cell next to ours and at that moment, I know this woman is the reason I’m alive right now. I smile and thank her for saving my life. A few seconds later, three of our fellow warriors come to stand in front of the cell. There is silence before he takes the keys from his pocket, unlocking the cell door. Jacob and the others step in front of me and I love that they are so loyal as to defend me even after everything that has happened. The warriors step aside and I think we are all confused. Tristian looks at me with sympathy

unlocking it. “Ladies let’s go.” The woman who healed me smiles and they all head out standing next to Jacob. I hand the key to Tristan, taking his hand. “I promise you this won’t be forgotten.” He nods and we head out the back door of the cells. I manage
