Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 54

54 Dealt With

Leland POV

As soon as I hear Lucas’s voice in my head, every bit of joy I felt a moment ago is gone. After all I have seen him do over these last few months, I know exactly what he is capable of. If something happens to Lance, it will be because he helped me. I can’t have my brother pay for my decisions. As soon as Lucas breaks our connection, I open my eyes and everyone is staring at me. “What happened Leland”, Pheobe asks me. A million thoughts run through my mind about what to do next, but the strongest one is to protect Lance. I don’t want to hurt these people, but what other choice do I have? I compose myself to keep my heart rate even. I know the wolves can hear changes in my heart rate that could make them suspicious. I won’t lie, I just won’t tell them everything. “My brother reached out to me as we had planned about the timing of the attack. Lance said that Lucas told him they will be attacking at dusk tomorrow.” Teresa squeezes my hand and I look down, seeing what looks like disappointment on her face. She couldn’t have heard my conversation with Lucas, our bond isn’t complete. “That’s amazing, we will ready the warriors for their arrival. Lucas is going to be very sorry for all he has done”, the Alpha says to everyone in the room. I nod and Pheobe stands. “We’re going to let you rest, mother” she says and leans down to hug Teresa. “Leland, I assume you will stay with her and protect her.” “Of course, with my life” I say. “I’m glad you have each other, you both deserve to be happy” Pheobe says before she takes Michael’s hand to leave. I hate that she is trusting me and once again, Lucas is going to hurt her through me.

down next to her bed. “So, are you going to tell me what just happened?” “What do you mean”, I ask hoping she is just talking about how I got here. “Leland, do not keep secrets from me. I choose you, but if you betray my family, that will all change.” I take a deep breath and look into her eyes. “Lucas has figured out what Lance and I did and he is going to kill Lance if I don’t help him.” She grips my hand “You need to tell Pheobe and the Alpha everything.” “I want to Teresa but he will kill Lance.” She pushes herself up so she is sitting up straighter. “Leland for years I allowed my fear of Lucas to dictate my choices and because of

hundred percent we will finish the mating and complete the bond.” “There is no rush love, I’m never letting you go.” I go into the bathroom and look at her beautiful blue mark on my neck. The mark that shows everyone that I belong to her. I come back out and head for the door. “Where are you going” she asks, a little panicked. “I need one of the nurses to contact the Alpha so we can discuss my conversation with Lucas.” She smiles and I walk to the nurse’s station. After the nurse assures me, she will let him know, I head back to Teresa’s room. Once I’m

Amelia POV

as the others walk ahead. I wanted to be a hundred percent before I brought this up to Lincoln and today, I feel that. I feel like I’m ready to deal with Jennifer. “Lincoln, before everything happens with Lucas, I would like to deal with Jennifer. He stops walking for a moment. He steps closer pulling me into him. “Are you sure you want to be the one to do this love?” “Star and I are positive that we are the ones that will be dealing with her. She tried to hurt me and my pup by taking me away from my mate. She is mine.” He buries his head in my neck. “That was really hot love” he whispers in my ear and I chuckle. He pulls back “let’s go do this.” We catch up with the others. “Michael, will you take Neal to the warrior’s barracks to start preparing them for the battle.” “You’re not coming with us” he says with confusion on his face. “No, Amelia will be dealing with Jennifer first.” Lily smiles and Pheobe looks confused.
