Mated to the Alpha and His Beta

Chapter 141

I burst back through the door, panting and looking around frantically.
Katie’s eyes locked on mine and widened. I must’ve looked like I’d seen a ghost.
“We have to get out of here as soon as possible,” I told her.
“Xander and Zane are mated to a hybrid,” Gabriela had said. She was implying that Katie was their mate.
Was she also tearing around the room like a maniac? Yes. And maybe that meant she was cracking and making s hit up, but when she said that, it was like my stomach turned inside out.
If there was even the slightest chance this was true, then it was more important than ever that we leave this place and never look back. Katie was mine, we were in love. We were going to be mated after we were back in Stillwood.
“Did you talk to Rhiannon?” Katie asked.
I shook my head emphatically. “No time,” I said.
This Braden s hit was nothing compared to the secrets Xander and his pack were keeping from us.
There was no chance in hell I was telling Katie what I’d overheard Gabriela saying-it might make her event more desperate to uncover her memories. What if she discovered that Xander and Zane really were her mates and she decided to leave me for them?
G od s, I was spiraling now, too. This place was making us all crazy.
I’d tell her what I heard Xander and Zane saying. Nothing more.
I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. “I overheard Xander and Zane talking. They’re planning something bad.”

My heart dropped into my stomach.
That sounded pretty f ucking foreboding.
Plus, I’d never seen Mason look so pale and scared before.
“What a

are they planning?” I asked as Mason dashed around, picking up anything we’d unpacked since
“They’re going to throw me under the bus,” he explained. “They’re going to drive me to the Council and force me to turn myself in. They’ll make me confess to biting Braden and goddess knows what else.”

“But if you turn yourself in and the Council detains you, then what happens to me?” I asked. My stomach turned over, and tears burned my eyes. “What happens to Stella?”
My voice sounded high-pitched and cracked, I looked down at my hands and they were shaking
uncontrollably.
Mason stopped and walked over to me, taking me by the shoulders.
“They’re planning on driving you back to the Constantine mansion,” he said, his gaze blazing with fury and concern. “They’re going to keep you locked up there.”
I couldn’t believe Xander and Zane would ever do such a thing or that Gabriela would actually let them,
but why else would Mason be so upset?

If he was telling the truth, then what would happen to Stella and me if we were forced to
mansion after everyone who lived there had lied to me?
A wave of nausea crashed over me. I was not about to let my baby be trapped in that place. Not again, and certainly not without Mason to protect us.
At least when Mason had suggested turning himself in, he’d wanted to take me back to Stillwood to be
with the closest thing I had to a family.
“I can’t go back there,” I whispered. “I can’t take Stella back there.”
“I know,” Mason said. “I won’t let that happen.”
I was suddenly hit with a pang of panic. What would happen to my memories? Would they lock me back. up in the mansion and continue to lie and gaslight me, knowing I’d never find out the truth about myself
beyond the fact that I was a hybrid?
