Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 95

29 Friend

Carter POV

“Where the hell could they be”, Oliver asks me. Its been two days since Sarah told us she saw me walking into the woods with Calliope. “Oliver, we will find them. I’m sure that ba**ard Mateo had something to do with this. We can’t put everyone at risk and attack his pack. We are strong but not as strong as an entire pack.” “Where is the Nightfire pack to help us? Aren’t they our allies? They are supposed to help us in time of need. I am not just going to sit here and wait while that ba**ard hurts my best friend.” “Yes, you are. Getting yourself killed is not going to help Jasminee and Calliope. Lily will be here soon and we will get them back.” “I still don’t understand what happened to the damn protection spell.” Before I can answer, Lily does. “Unfortunately, Clara’s death took a toll on me and it caused the spell to weaken. My guilt at not being able to save her had weakened my spirit. My powers suffered, which weakened the spell.” My heart breaks to hear Lily speak of her pain and loss. She is one of the strongest people I know. It doesn’t matter how powerful a person is if destiny has other ideas. She shouldn’t blame herself, but I’m sure that is easier to say than do. I can’t imagine losing Abigale. I shake away those thoughts, not wanting to think about her ever being gone from me or Sarah.

I watch as Lily rubs the palm of her hand. “I can’t feel Calliope.” Oliver growls and is on the verge of shifting. “Calm down now” I say and he manages to get himself under control. “That just means that she isn’t connected to her wolf right now. I’m sure the ba**ard gave her something to suppress her wolf” Lily says. She places her hand on Oliver’s shoulder. “I will do everything I can to bring Jasmine and Calliope back safely. I need something of hers so I can perform the location spell. I’m sure that Mateo has them, but we need to be sure”, Lily says. Oliver rushes from the room and returns a few minutes later with a rope bracelet that I’ve seen Calliope wear. “I gave this to her”, Oliver says. I say a prayer to that goddess that he won’t hurt her or Jasmine, but I don’t think we have much time before he does.

Calliope POV

stops. He crosses his arms over his chest and smiles. “Do you really think I would fight you after the last time you handed me my a** when we sparred?” “I don’t know what you are playing at Benson, but I will never mate you. I will only bear my mate’s mark. I will die before I let you touch me. You can have this pack for all I care, but it will not be with me by your side.” “I have no doubt of that, Calliope. Whoever your mate is will be a very lucky wolf to have such a strong, loyal mate. I have no intentions of forcing myself or my mark on you. I only went along with your father’s rambling about me being Alpha so that I could help you and the Luna escape.” I

Aurora just spoke to me. I know you’re telling the truth.” He nods and picks up the cup with the liquid in it. He goes into the bathroom and comes back with an empty cup. A small amount of blue residue remains as proof.

nose in the crook of my neck. “Keep your breathing even. Remember he is helping us” Aurora says. “It is good to see you finally know your place, Cali” my father says. “You will be a better Luna, than your mother ever was.” Benson squeezes my side, trying to keep me from saying all the things I want to say to this piece of sh*t. He pulls back and addresses my father. “Alpha, now that my future Luna is in the right headspace, I would like to take her to my room to complete our mating and marking.” He looks between us and I keep my eyes cast down. “Of course, but it needs to be done before that potion wears off. She will be bound to you, but that doesn’t mean

can’t do anything worse, he proves me wrong. A hand on my forearm tries to soothe me. “Calliope, I’m so sorry. I knew he was an a**hole but most Alphas are. I never expected that he would hurt his own mate and daughter.” “I am not his daughter. He is just a sperm donor. He has never treated me like I was important to him and now I realize why. No one but Mateo is important in his world and he will do whatever it takes to get what he wants. He loves no one. He is going to die a slow and painful death if I have anything to say about it.” Before I can say anymore, Benson pulls me into a hug. I don’t know why, but I don’t pull away. I know it is an act of friendship and nothing more. I let go of all the hurt and anger as he rubs circles on my back. When I finally compose myself, I pull back. “Thank you for helping me.” He nods and I smile. “If you ever tell any of the warriors that I cried like a baby I will kick your a** just like

Luna.” “Yes, Beta” she says and turns to leave. “Madison” I say and she stops walking. “My mother isn’t angry about what happened. I promise you that neither of us hold it against you.” She turns back to me with tears in her eyes. “Thank you, Alpha” she says before she leaves. It’s odd for her to call me that. The pack has never referred to me as anything but Calliope. “She can feel your aura. You are an Alpha even if your father is too stupid
