Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 64

64 Good News

Carter POV

As I watch Maureen’s wolf walk over to John after she killed Damien, I can breathe again. I know she is strong but I’ve known him long enough to know that he would do whatever it takes to get what he wanted. He would think nothing of taking Richard and Maureen from that sweet pup. I thought for sure that I would feel guilt about Damien, but honestly, all I feel is relief that he won’t be hurting anyone anymore. “Carter, where is Jeanine” Ethan’s words bring me out of my thoughts. I turn and he follows me, running toward Damien’s cottage. I just pray that he didn’t touch Ethan’s mate. I’m sure he would know, but I don’t dare ask. We reach the hallway in the cottage and when we reach the door it’s locked. I don’t turn to go back to his office for the keys, I simply break the door. Thankfully, Jeanine is sitting in a chair across the room. As soon as she sees Ethan, she is on her feet and in his arms. I turn to leave, giving them privacy for their reunion. “Thank you, Carter”, I hear from behind me. I turn back and they are both smiling at me. Jeanine has tears staining her cheeks. “You are both very welcome. I’m just happy you’re both safe and all this craziness is over.”

Lily and I can see sympathy on her face. She is the only one now that knows Desiree was my mate. Again, I thought that my heart would be broken because my mate is dead, but she was never really my mate. “Carter, I assume you will take over leadership of this collective”, Lincoln says. I nod knowing it’s my responsibility as the second in command to take over the leadership. “Your collective is now under the protection of the Nightfire pack. Consider this a verbal alliance. I don’t expect a formal agreement, but we will be here if you need us”, Lincoln says. I have never met an Alpha like this man. The Luna smiles and I’m glad to have met them. We are rogues and pack wolves don’t associate with us.

Maureen POV

Damien. He has been loyal to him for a long time. Long before we joined the collective. I watched him lead Ethan inside to find his mate. He is a good man and I hope that now he will find the happiness he deserves. As I listen to Lincoln offer the collective his alliance, I’m in awe of him as an Alpha. I am so glad my pup will grow up in the Nightfire pack. I can’t wait to get back and hold Penny. We are ready to return to the pack after the alliance is made. I walk over to Carter. “Thank you, for saving me and my pup from Damien.” He laughs, “I think you saved us all, not me.” “I may have ended him, but I would never have had the opportunity if you hadn’t been the man you

down and scoop Penny into my arms. We all head inside. After we tell my mother about everything that happened while Penny plays with her dolls, I take her upstairs for a nap. I sit down on the floor, so I’m looking at my beautiful daughter’s face. “Penny, we are going to stay here from now on.” She smiles like I just gave her a bowl of candy. “This is gonna be my room forever?” “Yes, sweetie this is going to be your room.” She wraps her arms around my neck. When she pulls back, I sit her on my lap. “Penny, John is going to live here with us.” “Is he nice?” “Yes, he is very nice.” “Ok, mama” she says and I don’t know what I expected her to say. I know she still remembers Richard and I hate the thought that she won’t remember him someday. “We will make sure she remembers him”, John says in my mind. I couldn’t love this man anymore than I do at this moment. I place Penny in her bed and lay down next to her to read a story. Before I finish, she is fast asleep. I kiss her forehead before I head downstairs.
