Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 52

52 Warlocks Among Us

Pheobe POV

“Mother” I say as I wrap her in my arms. She rubs her hand down my hair, “I’m alright, I’m here princess. I’m so sorry” she starts to say. I feel like I could break at the tremble in her voice. “You have nothing to be sorry for. You were protecting me and I know that now. I’m sorry, I didn’t realize that before all this happened.” She pushes me back gently and sweeps the hair from my face. “You, my lovely daughter, have nothing to be sorry for. I’m so proud of you for standing up for what was right when I was too weak to.” I wipe the tears that stain her cheeks. “You are anything but weak mother. I saw what he did to you and I’m sorry that I wasn’t there to protect you.” “Let’s not focus on the past. We need to focus on what’s coming so that you can stop your brother.” I hear a growl and my mother looks over my shoulder. She pushes herself up in bed and I move to the side so she can see. “Mother, this is my beloved, Michael” I say as I reach out my hand for him to take it. “Well Michael, its lovely to meet you. I would say you, better treat my daughter well, but I don’t think I need to.” “No, you don’t, she is my world and I would die for her.” My mother nods and takes Michael’s hand. “She is very lucky to have been blessed with such a wonderful beloved.” “Thank you” he says and steps back taking my hand again.

“Mother, I would like you to meet the rest of our family. Lincoln and Amelia are the Alpha and Luna of the Nightfire pack. Lily is the Gamma female and her mate, Neal, is the Gamma. He is on patrol right now but you’ll meet him later.” “What are you to the pack Michael,” she says with a smile. “I am the Beta of the pack.” She turns to me, “which makes you the Beta Female.” I nod “congratulations princess for finding your place.” “You’re not upset that I won’t be returning to the coven when all this is over.” “Would I love to have you with me every day, absolutely but your place is here with your mate.” I hug her again holding her tightly. “Besides once Lucas has been dealt with you and Michael will come to see me often at the coven.” “Yes, we will” Michael says and I chuckle. I pull back and for the first time since she woke up, I see concern on my mother’s face. “What’s wrong mother,” I ask while I look her over. “Leland has put himself in danger.” I smile knowing that she cares for him as much as he did for her. “Leland the second in command and your beloved.” She looks shocked by my words. She places her hand on her marking spot. “If Lucas realizes what he is and what he has done to help me, he will kill him. I can’t lose him, Pheobe.” “We will get him back, mother.”

asks, and I smile. “The plan is I’m about to be caught by the pack and you’re going to take these a**holes back to the coven.” “Leland how do you know they won’t kill you before you can explain yourself.” “I’ll just

this story. I open the door and walk inside, keeping my breathing even. When he sees me at first he looks confused and then angry. “Where the f**k is Leland, Lance?” “I’m sorry sir but he was taken by the wolves who were being helped by witches.” “My sister” he says like a question. “No, I’ve never seen these witches before.” “The two of them were powerful and managed to stop both of our attacks.” He slams his fist down on the desk. “That b**ch thinks that she can take my men and help those mutts.” He looks to me “you can’t wallow in what you have lost Lance. Loss is part of war. We will make them pay for what they have done to Leland.” “Thank you, sir” I say. “We will attack tomorrow at dusk, so make sure the men are ready.” “Yes
