Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 104
38 No More Secrets
Calliope POV
The door to my room opens and Eli walks in holding Faith. My heart squeezes in my chest. Aurora is prancing in my mind
knowing our pup is so close. He sits down in the chair next to my bed and Faith reaches for me. I take her and she lays her head
on my chest. “It seems Faith has already claimed you too.” I can feel the tear run down my cheek. I run my fingers through her
hair and I can feel her breathing even out. Aurora is purring, having our pup asleep on my chest. I still can’t believe the change in
Eli and I can’t help but say a prayer of thanks to the goddess and Clara. Faith will always know about the amazing woman who
brought her into my life. I feel the tingles on my cheek as Eli uses his thumb to wipe the tear away. He leans up and kisses my
forehead. “Thank you for forgiving me and accepting me even after the way I acted.” He presses a soft kiss to my lips and when
he pulls back, I’m sure that I’m blushing. I touch my finger to my lips. I know it was just a peck, but it’s still my first kiss. He looks
worried and I smile. “It was my first kiss.” His eyes darken and a low growl escapes him. He takes my hand in his but before he
can say anymore, there is a knock on the door. It opens and Oliver steps inside, followed by Larisa and another young girl. The
two girls sit on the couch while Oliver addresses me.
“Cali, how are you feeling?” A low growl comes from my mate. “Eli, he is my friend and Beta. He is allowed to call me that unless
we are in a formal meeting. I am yours.” He looks at Oliver and nods. “I’m fine Oliver, just a little sore. Aurora did a good job of
healing me.” “Your pup is beautiful” he says, looking between us. “Thank you, Oliver”, Eli says. “Oliver, I would like you to return
to the pack. Let my mother, Anthony, and Benson know I will return tomorrow after I discuss the future of the pack with my mate.”
He nods and leaves the room. “Cali, you link me if you need me. I know he is your mate, but I am still your best friend. If he hurts
you again, I will kick his a** Alpha or not”, Oliver says through our link and I smile. “I’ll be fine and I will see you soon.” I look at
the girl that is sitting next to Larisa. She looks nervous and I can’t help but wonder why.
Rose POV
Larisa insisted I needed to come and talk to Eli and Calliope. I have no idea how he is going to react to the news that Clara is my
wolf. She explained to me that she doesn’t have memories of her time with Eli, just like Silas, but she knows that Faith is her
pup. She knows that Eli was important to her, but there is no pull to him. He is not her mate. She might not have those
memories, but he does. Larisa told me he had found his second chance, but what if this changes everything for him? Oliver
leaves and the pit in my stomach seems to be getting bigger. Larisa puts her hand on mine. “Everything is going to be fine
Rose.” “Rose, come talk to me”, Eli says. I take a deep breath. I walk until I’m standing in front of them. “Calliope, this is Rose.

She is Lily and Neal’s daughter. She is like a sister to me.” “It’s very nice to meet you, Rose.” “It’s nice to meet you, Calliope. I’m
happy that Eli found you. He deserves to be happy again.” He turns back to me and smiles. “Tell me what’s wrong little one.” I roll
my eyes at his nickname. He chuckles and it relaxes me a little. “The night that I shifted and met my wolf was amazing, but it was
also scary. I can’t thank you enough for helping me through my first shift, Eli.” He smiles “of course, what are big brother’s for?”
“I’m sorry I ran away without talking to you, but I was scared you would be upset with me.” “Rose, you did nothing wrong. What
could I possibly be upset with you for?” I fidget and I can’t find the words. Larisa takes my hand, encouraging me to tell him. “I
didn’t do anything wrong, but my wolf is Clara.” He stiffens and I close my eyes tight. Before I know what’s happening, I’m lifted
into strong arms. I open my eyes and hug Eli back. A few seconds later, he sets me on my feet and returns to his seat. He takes
Calliope’s hand in his. “Rose, Clara told me that she asked you to keep a secret from me. I’m not angry with you for doing what
she asked.” Now I’m confused. He explains everything that happened about Clara’s visit to him. How is that possible? “Rose,
that was a gift to Eli and Silas from the goddess after everything that happened. Eli no longer feels the love he once had for me
which is the way it is meant to be. He is free to love his true mate and someday we will find our mate too.” I rush over and wrap
my arms around Eli’s neck. I let the tears flow. I was so worried that me having Clara as a wolf would ruin everything for Eli. I
love my wolf and I’m so happy that Clara will have a chance to watch Faith grow up.
Cayden POV
When Selma told me to head to the clearing behind the bar, I knew that I would get my chance to end Lydia today. I change into
grey sweat pants and a blue t-shirt before I head downstairs. I’ll be glad when all this is over and we can return to the pack. I
miss the pack and Faith. She is all I have left of Clara. I reach the bottom of the stairs and my mother is sitting on the couch with
Hudson. I’m a big guy, but Hudson is huge and he doesn’t look comfortable on the small couch. “Cayden, what’s up” my mother
asks me. “Selma contacted me, it’s time to finish what we came here for.” I head outside to wait for them. Once they join me
outside, we all shift. Tyson is huge and I’m so glad he is on our side. We reach the clearing and I send a message to Selma that
I’m here. “Make sure she only sees you at first and that you look like I’ve captured you.” “Go wait in the trees” I say to my mother
and Hudson. I can see that my mother doesn’t like the idea, but I’m grateful when she does as I ask. I create a rope and wrap
myself up. A few minutes later, I catch the scent of Selma and that b**ch in the wind.
As soon as the ropes are gone, I stand before that evil b**ch that took great pleasure in torturing my sister. Her eyes are big and
she is screaming at Selma. I wave my hand closing her mouth. She grabs at her face and panic flashes through her eyes. “Do
you remember all the times that Clara pleaded with you and that ba**ard to stop hurting her? I was a boy and I couldn’t protect
her from you two monsters. I’m not a boy anymore and you are about to pay for every sin you committed against my sister just
like that ba**ard Franklin did.” Lydia raises her hand and Selma goes to block her, but I stop her. “This is between me and her” I
say pointing between me and Lydia. Selma nods and steps back. She pitches the first energy ball, which I easily deflect. “Pain” I

say and she drops to her knees. I wave my hand allowing her mouth to work again. Her screams fill the air and it brings me great
pleasure to watch her suffer. “Stop” I say and she tries to catch her breath. I lift her in the air and her eyes are full of pleading.
“Don’t bother even asking for mercy because you will find none here.”
I conjure a blue flame in my hand. Her eyes get big as she eyes the flame. “I pray that the punishment the goddess gives you is
a hundred times worse than what you are about to experience.” I throw the flame and it starts to engulf her body. It moves from
her feet up her legs. She is screaming and trying to free herself from my magic hold. Once she is completely surrounded in the
blue flame, her body freezes. I release my hold on her body and she drops to the ground breaking into a thousand pieces. A
sense of relief washes over me that she is dead. Arms wrap around me and I breathe in my mother’s scent. “That was amazing,
Cayden” Selma said. “Theo would be very proud.” I smile thinking about my father. My mother pulls back and Hudson shakes my
hand. “Remind me not to piss you off Cayden”, Hudson says, and we all burst out laughing. I’m glad it’s finally over. I hug Selma
“thank you for helping me.” “You are my family, Cayden. I will always be here for you.” I pull back and when I look into her eyes, I
see sadness. “Selma, what’s wrong?” “I need to speak with Evelyn” she says, looking at my mother.
Selma POV
We head back to the cottage and once we are inside, we take a seat in the living room. “Evelyn, there is no easy way for me to
say this, so I’m just going to say it. Grant was not your second chance mate.” Her brow furrows and she looks confused. “How is
that possible? I felt the mate pull, the tingles, and the bond.” “Octavius orchestrated everything that happened. He met with your
father and Grant. Your father wanted you mated to a strong Alpha. Grant wanted you, but not your pups. Octavius wanted Theo’s
pups dead. You were given an elixir that made you feel all those things.” Her eyes dart back and forth like she is remembering
something. Hudson wraps his arms around her tighter. I’m sure he is feeling her emotions through there bond. “My father, that
ba**ard. The day that Grant came to the pack he asked me to come to his office. He had not spoken to me after I got pregnant.
He apologized for being so harsh with me and we had breakfast together. He must have given me the elixir. I met Grant that
afternoon.” “I’m so sorry, Evelyn, for what Octavius has taken from you. I promise you he will suffer for all he has done.” “If my
father wasn’t dead, I would kill myself. I spent all those years with that man that wasn’t my mate and he took my pups from me.”
Cayden gets up and picks Evelyn up, wrapping her in his arms. “I’m here mom. He didn’t win and he never will.”
She sobs into Cayden’s chest and Hudson looks murderous to see his mate in such pain. “You are her true second chance
Hudson.” He seems to relax and Cayden places Evelyn back down on the couch. Hudson pulls her onto his lap. My heart breaks
for this woman. I lost Theo but she has been betrayed by men that she should have been able to trust. I stand and hug Cayden.
“I need to get back. I want to find out exactly what his plans are before I leave that place for good. He brought a black magic
warlock to meet me and he thinks he is going to force me into a mating him.” A growl that shakes the room startles me and I

expect it to be Cayden, but it’s not. Evelyn’s eyes are black and she stands pulling me into her arms. “That will never happen.
You can’t go back there.” I smile knowing that she is trying to protect me like family should. She really is amazing and I’m so
happy that I found her and Cayden. “Evelyn, I promise you that I won’t be gone long. I have to stay with the plan so we can
finally make him pay for all he has done. I will come to the pack when I can. I want to meet my great niece. You don’t have to
worry I will never accept anyone that isn’t my fated mate.” She smiles and pulls me into another hug. I teleport back into my room
and plop down on my bed. “Where the hell were you?”
