Betrayed by My Beta Mate

Chapter 49

49 New Day

John POV

The ceremony was so beautiful and I’m glad that Lily and Neal were made Gamma/’s. It’s still hard to believe that everyone important to me is here in a wolf pack I chuckle to myself. I told my mother that I would have breakfast with her, Aunt Iris, and Walker today. I’m going to go on a run and get a little training in before we have breakfast. I throw on gray sweats and a black t-shirt. I head out of the cottage and toward the path. As I start to run, I feel like I’m being watched. I look around but I don’t see anyone. Great John, your being paranoid, I say to myself. That f**ker Lucas has me losing it. I can’t wait to watch him suffer for all he did to my aunt. A wolf steps out as I run near the border and I stop. The wolf smells like pack but I don’t know all the wolves in the pack yet. It makes no move toward me. “Can I help you?” The wolf growls and I step back. “I am part of this pack and I don’t want to hurt you.” As soon as the last word leaves my mouth, the wolf shifts. Now I’m pissed as she stands there laughing.

“What the f**k Clarissa” I say as she starts walking toward me. “Oh, John learn to take a joke.” “That’s not funny or a joke.” “What if I cast against you?” She rolls her eyes. “What the hell are you doing out here, stalking me?” “Don’t flatter yourself John.” “I was out on a run when I scented you.” “Fine, I need to finish my run because I have plans.” I see something flash on her face but its gone so quickly I think I imagined it. “Don’t let me keep you from your plans” she says. I’m just about to take off to finish my run when I notice her scenting the air near the border. “What is it” I ask. “It’s not a wolf but I smell something close to the territory.” I hear what sounds like a moan and on instinct I start to walk toward the sound. I’m wrenched back by Clarissa. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” “That’s outside the pack land.” I pull my arm free “I’m not going to let someone or something suffer just because it isn’t part of the pack.” I start again to cross the border and when I pass through trees the moaning gets louder. I walk a few feet to the left and that’s when I see her lying on the ground covered in blood. I link Lincoln before I wrap her in my arms teleporting her to the pack hospital.

Maureen POV

are being nice right now but they have no idea what you can do.” “Wolves crave power and when they figure out you have powers they will use you., just like that ba**ard wants to.” I know she is just worried but I wish she would just trust me to always do what’s best for all of us. “Mama” Penny says interrupting our conversation. “Yes baby” I say bending down so I’m eye level with her. “Can I

wastes no time digging in. I smile at my innocent little girl who is happy right now and I need to keep it that way. So, I plan on staying here as long as we can. Maybe Damien will give up, I can only hope. A knock sounds on the door and I stiffen. “It’s not him Maureen” Clarice says and I know

Lily POV

I wanted to go see Penny, Maureen, and Judith. With everything happening the last few days I don’t want them to feel unwelcome. We spoke with Lincoln and Amelia about everything and they agree we should offer them a place in the pack. I knock and when the door opens Maureen smiles. She looks so much better than the day they came to the pack. I’m glad the clothes we had brought fit her. Before I can say a word, little arms are wrapped around me. I bend picking her up. “Hello there, Miss Penny.” “Hi Lily” she says with chocolate on her face. “Did we interrupt your breakfast?” “No, in fact there is more than enough if you two want to join us.” “Please Lily”, Penny says and I couldn’t say no if I wanted to. I turn to Neal and he smiles. We head inside and Judith is already setting plates down for us. “Good morning” she says. I can tell she doesn’t

my heart sinks. I had hoped she realized this pack isn’t a normal wolf pack and that Lincoln and Amelia will offer them a permanent place to keep them all safe. “Did you ever think about becoming part of the pack?” Before she can answer I get a link from Amelia. “A woman who is badly injured has been found by John just outside the territory.” I stand “I apologize but Neal and I need to get to the hospital.” “Please think about what I said.” “This pack isn’t like others and we would love for you to all stay.” I smile at Penny

Lincoln POV

Lincoln?” I tell her about the link and she immediately gets dressed. A knock sounds on the door and my mother comes in. “Thank you, Lorraine”, Amelia says and we head to the pack hospital. When we reach the lobby, a nurse is waiting for us. “Alpha and Luna, I’ll take you to the room.” We follow her to a room at the end of the hall. When we open the door John is sitting in a chair. A woman who looks to be in her late forties is lying in the bed hooked up to a lot of machines. She even has a breathing tube in. John stands when he
