Betrayed by My Beta Mate

11 Pack
Lincoln POV
I head to my office to make that call to the Elders. When I reach my office door, Jennifer is waiting. “I need to speak with you,
Lincoln, about your visitor.” I don’t like her tone but I just let it go. I really don’t have time for this but I lead her into my office. I
don’t invite her to sit because I’m hoping this will be short. “What do you need Jennifer?” “Who is that girl you brought here
today?” Now the way she asks that pisses me off. “I think I have made it clear that I do not answer to you, so this conversation is
over.” “This is my pack and as Alpha I will bring anyone I want here.” “Lincoln, you have never spoken to me like this and
honestly I think you owe me something after all the years we’ve known each other.” “You once thought I was going to be your
mate.” She steps into me and places her hands on my chest. “I love you Lincoln, why can’t you just accept me and forget about
some stupid mate bond.” “I will be a good mate and Luna.”
I take her wrists in my hands and put them at her side. “Jenn, I did think you would be my mate because it was convenient not
because I feel the way you feel.” “I used to wish I did feel it for you instead of having to wait for my other half.” “We have known
each other for a very long time and I care for you as a friend and pack member.” “I am going to meet my goddess given mate
and if you cannot accept that we are going to have a problem with you remaining in the pack.” She looks at me with a look like I
just slapped her. “How could you say that to me?” “You are going to cast me out of the pack for some b**ch you don’t even
know.” I growl “be very careful Jenn, I will not tolerate your behavior toward me or my mate” “Our history be damned.” “Fine,
Lincoln, I will leave you and your imaginary mate alone.” She walks out of my office without another word.
I sit at my desk hoping what she just said is true, but knowing in my heart, it’s not. “She better not give Amelia a hard time,
Lincoln”, Talon says. “I will make sure she doesn’t.” I pick up the phone dialing the Elder’s number. Elder James picks up on the
second ring. “Alpha Lincoln, it’s good to hear from you.” “It’s good to speak with you also.” “I wish I was calling for a better reason
but I’m in need of the Elder’s help.” “I hope nothing has happened to your parents or the pack.” “No, everyone is good but thank
you for your concern.” “This is help for a friend of the pack actually.” “It’s funny that you called us for help because Elder Thomas
was hoping we could meet with you.” “We wanted to speak about an issue that you and your pack could help us with.”
“Absolutely I’m glad to offer my help anytime Elder James.” “Good, we will be out tomorrow around noon if that’s ok.” “I look
forward to seeing you both.”
I hang up but I can’t imagine what they would need my help with. I’m glad that they will get to speak with Amelia in person. I’m
sure once they talk to her, they will know she is telling the truth. I link Michael to come to my office about my conversation with
Jennifer and the Elder’s visit. A few minutes later there’s a knock and my door opens but it’s not Michael. “Mother to what do I
owe this visit?” I get up to hug her before we both take a seat. “Lincoln, I spoke to your father and he told me about your

conversation.” “Is the young lady I just met in the dining room your mate?” My mother is nothing if not to the point. “I’m not sure
mom, I just know she is important to me and Talon.” “I love you Lincoln but I see her mark and the pup in her belly.” Before I can
say anything, she finishes. “Based on the fact you brought her here knowing those two things, I believe she is important to you
and this pack” she says with a smile. “You know that your father and I will support you.” “If Amelia is your mate we will love her
pup as our grandchild.” I’m lucky to have such loving and supportive parents.
“I don’t expect you to tell me what is going on with Amelia as it’s her story to tell, but please be careful for both of you” my mother
says. I go around and hug my mother again before she heads back to my father. As she leaves, Michael comes in and takes a
seat. “How did everything go when Amelia found out she is staying on your floor?” I chuckle “I think she would have said more
had I given her the opportunity.” He laughs “I’m sure Lily will help her feel comfortable.” I nod “I called you to discuss two things.”
“We will be meeting with the Elders tomorrow with Amelia at noon.” “Good, I’m glad we can help her tell the Elders what that
ba**ard did.” “I just hope they believe her instead of Atlas” Michael says. “I hope so too.” “The other thing I wanted to talk about
is Jennifer.” He rolls his eyes “I told you that girl was going to be a problem when we were teenagers.” “I know you did but I can’t
go back.” “I really believed she was going to be my mate.” “I’m just glad I didn’t do anything with her despite her many attempts
to get me to.” “That was definitely a smart move Lincoln.” “What did she do this time?” I tell Michael about my conversation with
Jenn in the hallway. “She is going to be a problem, Lincoln” Michael says. “That would definitely make your life much more
complicated when you find your mate.” “Your right about that.” “I know she isn’t happy that Amelia is here and I want Max to keep
an eye on her.” “You got it” he says before he leaves my office. I’m going to go check on Amelia and Lily.
Amelia POV
I can’t believe he put me on the Alpha floor. Why wouldn’t he just put me in a regular guest room in the pack house? Lily pulls me
into the bedroom. “Stop overthinking everything Amelia.” “You deserve a nice room and who cares if it’s on Lincoln’s floor?” “I
know you’re not a wolf Lily, but being on the Alpha floor is a big deal.” She chuckles “I know that Alphas are a big deal to wolves
but Lincoln isn’t a regular Alpha.” She is definitely right about that. Most Alphas wouldn’t get involved with the problems of a she-
wolf in their own pack, let alone one from another pack. Lincoln is so much like Elias. So kind and protective of others. “Amelia,
what are you thinking about”, Lily asks. I haven’t really spoken with Lily about Elias’s death. I don’t think I’ve really processed it
completely. “Lincoln reminds me of my brother-in-law Elias.” She sits on the bed and I sit down next to her. “Elias was so kind.”
“He was loving and understanding.” “When I met Atlas, Elias was already mated to Freya.” “He thought she walked on water and
she acted like she loved him.” “He was busy as many Alphas are but when they were together, he doted on her.” “He treated
Atlas as an equal, not as a Beta.” “He loved his pack and family.” “Amelia what happened to Elias that Atlas became Alpha.” “I
wasn’t there so I can only tell you what my mother told me, that Freya killed him.” “She killed her own mate.” “How is that
possible, Lily?” I can’t help the tears that start to flow. She pulls me into her arms and I let all the emotions I’ve been holding
inside come out.

I pull back and wipe the tears from my eyes. “I’m sorry, the pregnancy is just making me really emotional.” She puts her hand on
my cheek. “Amelia, you don’t always have to be strong.” “You have every right to feel everything you’re feeling.” “It’s ok to lean
on me and other people.” “You know like hot Alpha kind of people.” My face must be red as a beet. She starts to laugh “Lily, are
you kidding me right now.” “No, I’m not and just because I’m a witch and not a wolf doesn’t mean I can’t sense attraction.” I look
down at my belly. “Lily, I’m in no position to be checking out Alpha Lincoln.” “Liar, liar, pants on fire” Star says in my head but I
ignore her. I change the subject, hoping she’ll let this topic go. “I really love the room, so we don’t need to change much.” “How
about a rocking chair and then I think it’s perfect.” She smiles and waves her hand in the corner. The most beautiful wood
rocking chair appears. I go over and take a seat in it. “Thank you, Lily, I love it.” I rock for a minute before my curiosity about the
girl from earlier gets the better of me.
“Lily who was that girl you slapped downstairs.” “Is she really Lincoln’s future mate and Luna?” She smiles “Jenn is just a pain in
the a**.” “She is definitely not the future, anything, to this pack.” “Make no mistake, she wants Lincoln in the worst way but he
has made it clear he will only have his fated mate.” Star pushes to the surface and growls at Lily’s words. I slap my hand over my
mouth and I wish the floor would swallow me whole. “Apparently your wolf doesn’t like the idea of Jenn trying to claim Lincoln.”
“Can we just drop it?” “Lily, do you think that Alpha Lincoln would let you stay here until we can go back to our apartments.” “I
would feel more comfortable if you were here with me.” She is just about to say something when a knock sounds on the door.
The door opens and Lincoln walks in. He starts to look around until his eyes land on the chair I’m sitting in. “That’s a beautiful
chair.” “I had hoped you would do more decorating to make the room your own so you’re comfortable.” “I love the room just as it
is Alpha Lincoln.” He smiles and I just blurt out my question. “Can Lily stay while I’m here?” “Of course, she can, I will have a
guest room prepared for you Lily.” “Thank you, Lincoln.” “Lily” I say hoping to remind her about his title. He laughs “Lily knows
that unless we are in a formal setting, she has permission to use my name with no title.” “The same goes for you, Amelia.”
Lincoln POV
“I’m going to my apartment to grab some of my things and I’ll be back”, Lily says before she is gone. Amelia looks like she didn’t
expect us to be alone. “Amelia, I spoke with the Elders and they will be here tomorrow around noon.” “Thank you, Lincoln, for
everything.” “I will never forget how kind you have been to me and my pup.” I smile “talk to her about the connection we feel.”
“Talon now is not the time.” “Bullsh*t it’s the perfect time.” “I don’t want to make her uncomfortable so she leaves.” “So don’t act
like a creepier when you say it.” “Fine” I say before I look back to Amelia. “Having a conversation with your wolf.” “Yes, sorry
about that.” She smiles “were you two talking about me?” “As a matter a fact you were the topic.” “Can I ask you something
Amelia?” “Of course, you can Lincoln.” “Do you feel anything for me?”
