Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 70

4 Find Our Place

Calliope POV

We reach the human city and pull into the parking lot of a coffee shop. I look over at my mother and I can’t read her face. “Mom” I say and she turns pulling me into a hug. “Thank you Calliope. You are so strong. I’m sorry” she starts to say and I stop her. “What are you sorry for?” “I should have been strong enough to fight my father when he insisted I mate Mateo. I should have left your father when I knew he was never going to love me.” I pull back “don’t do that. You are stronger than any woman I know. You sacrificed your own happiness to protect me from the vile things he was doing. I know based on what I saw today this isn’t new behavior for that ba**ard.” She laughs and the brightness actually reaches her eyes. I wish I had realized how unhappy she really was before today. “You deserve to be happy, mother. This isn’t about me. You don’t owe me an apology. You did nothing wrong.” I can tell she doesn’t think she deserves to be happy. “What are we going to do now, Calliope? Your father isn’t going to let this go.” She reaches into the bag she packed and pulls out a wad of money. “Mom, how much is there?” “A few thousand dollars but it won’t last long.” She is right about that. “Let’s go in and have something to eat before we find a hotel to stay in for a night or two. I don’t care if we have to live among humans. You are never going back to him.” She reaches up and touches the spot where he marked her. She brushes her fingers over it and smiles. “It is already starting to fade.”

We get out and head inside the coffee shop. I can’t help but look around. I doubt the wolves will follow us into the human city. My father knows that the Nightfire pack protects this city and will not take kindly to wolves entering without permission. Alpha Lincoln is someone my father spoke of often and it wasn’t fondly. I have never met him, so I’m not sure why my father hated him so much. Based on everything I just learned, Alpha Lincoln is probably a good man. We take a seat in a booth after we get two cups of coffee and muffins. I continue to look around to ensure there is no threat to my mother. There are many people in the shop but they are all human. I pick my coffee cup up and place it to my lips. As I take a sip, I scent a wolf. I place the coffee on the table in front of me and look toward the door. A beautiful woman who is around my mother’s age walks in with a girl who looks about eight. The woman is definitely a wolf. The little girl waves at me and the woman looks in our direction. Her eyes get big as she must realize we are wolves too.

I hope my mother’s right. A few seconds later, she leads the little girl to a table near ours. “Calliope, I don’t believe she is a threat”, Aurora says. Aurora isn’t an average wolf. She can feel the emotions of others. A gift given to her and me by the goddess. My father has never even seen Aurora or asked about my wolf so he has no idea. “My name is Sarah, what’s yours,” a little voice brings me out of my thoughts. “Sarah, don’t bother the ladies” the woman says to the little girl. “It’s no bother. My name is Calliope and this is my mother Jasmine.” “You have the same name as a princess.”

Alpha Mateo POV

mind after my conversation with Calliope. “We cannot let our pup leave the pack. We need our bloodline to continue and she is the only way that happens, Mateo.” “I am aware of that Dante. She isn’t going anywhere. Just like Jasmine accepted my rules, so will she.” After I link Jasmine to bring Calliope back to my office, I take a seat at my desk. I will be damned if any woman will speak to me like that. After fifteen minutes, I start to lose my patience. I stand and head toward the door. I reach for the handle when a pain like I’ve never known almost knocks me off my feet. “That b**ch you chose is breaking the bond with us”, Dante growls. I manage to get my bearings. “Bradford, you are to have every warrior out looking for my Luna and daughter,” I link him. “What’s happening Alpha?” “Do what I f**king ordered now.” I break the link and head downstairs. As soon as I’m outside, I take a deep breath to scent the air. I can’t scent Jasmine. We shift and Dante takes off toward the gate that leads into the pack. We reach it in minutes and I shift. The guard looks worried and I have a feeling I’m not going to like what he is about to say. “Where are they?” He doesn’t even ask who I mean because he knows. “They left fifteen minutes ago, Alpha. I’m so sorry they told me they were leaving to buy you a gift.” “What way did they go” I growl and shift. I will deal with his stupid a** later. I link the men to follow me and I take off toward the

the SUV. Her scent is getting stronger as we run. We stay in the woods. As we run I realize where she is going. That b**ch thinks she can hide from me in the human city. She is very wrong. I may not be able to walk in as Dante, but I will find them both. I don’t care about that ba**ard Lincoln. They both belong to me and I will have what is mine.
