Betrayed by My Beta Mate

50 New Pack

Lincoln POV

Tristan bares his neck in respect to us and I nod. “Shall we sit to have our discussion Alpha and Luna,” he says. He gestures to the chairs behind the desk, before he takes the seat across from it. Two chairs have been placed behind the desk and I lead Amelia over to take one. I know this isn’t easy for her, but I couldn’t be prouder of the strength and determination she has shown. Despite the memories she has of this place, she insisted on staying with me for this meeting. I take the seat next to her and she places her hand in mine. “Tristan, do you have any other pack members that you would like to join us for this meeting?” “No, Walker was the only other ranked wolf.in our pack.” “Amelia and I came to discuss the future of the pack” I say and he has a look of confusion on his face. “As you are the only remaining ranked member, we would like your input to determine how we move forward.” Despite his confusion he nods and I proceed. “Amelia has told me a great deal about your true Alpha, Elias.” “I’m sorry for your loss and all that the pack has endured due to Atlas’s treachery.” I see sadness flash across his face “thank you, Alpha.” “After discussing things with my Luna we have come up with two options to move forward with the leadership of this pack.” “The first option is the members can become part of the Nightfire pack.” “The second option is speaking to Elder James about appointing a new Alpha.” He looks at me like I have ten heads but he says nothing.

to you every day until the move is complete and if there are any issues you will let me know immediately.” “Of course, thank you for trusting me, Alpha.” He stands “the pack is waiting in the yard for your arrival.” We head down the stairs and out the back door that leads to the pack yard. Amelia’s grip on my hand tightens and I can feel her nerves at seeing the pack members. Tristan steps forward, “Darkmoon, welcome our new leaders, Alpha Lincoln and Luna Amelia.” They all bare their necks in respect to us. “Thank you, Tristan”, I say and he steps back. “As you all know, Atlas betrayed
