Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 105
39 Talk To Your Mate
Calliope POV
After Larisa and Rose left, Eli was quiet. I’m sure he is in shock about Rose’s news. Faith starts to squirm and fuss. I rub her
back. “What’s the matter, sweet girl?” He smiles at her and picks her up in his arms. He rocks her for a minute but she doesn’t
quiet down. “I’m going to go grab her bottle and the diaper bag. I won’t be gone long.” I wonder how he is feeling about all we
just learned. Maybe he is leaving because he needs time alone to think and process everything. I’m not upset that Clara is
Rose’s wolf. The goddess is amazing and, honestly, I’m glad that Clara will still have an opportunity to watch Faith grow up. She
deserves that. I just hope that this doesn’t change things between me and Eli. He is my mate and I want nothing more than to
mark him. I need to make him mine in every way.
This has to be a lot for him to absorb in a very short time between Clara’s visit and now knowing she is Rose’s wolf. A light knock
on the door sounds and the doctor steps inside. “Alpha Calliope, how are you feeling?” “I’m perfect, Aurora has completely
healed me.” She looks me over and checks my vital signs. My wounds are completely healed. “I’m comfortable with discharging
you but you will need to follow up with your pack doctor tomorrow. Can I trust you to do that, Alpha?” I smile “I promise I will get
checked out.” I look around the room, realizing for the first time I don’t have any clothes. They must have cut them off of me
when they brought me to the hospital. “I will have the nurse bring you some scrubs to wear if you want to go into the bathroom to
get cleaned up.” “Thank you” I say. I manage to get myself into the bathroom. I’m a little sore, but nothing I can’t tolerate.
Once I’m in the shower, the spray of the water feels amazing on my skin. All the dirt, blood, and grime run down the drain. Aurora
has been quiet and I wonder what she is thinking. “Aurora, tell me what you’re thinking. I know you heard the conversation.” “Our
mate is amazing. Did you see him with our pup?” I smile “yes, I did. He is a wonderful father.” “He won’t change his mind,
Calliope. I can already feel the bond starting to form with him and Silas.” I love my wolf and I pray she is right. I step out of the
shower and dry off. I pull my long red hair into a ponytail. I wrap the towel around myself and head back into the room. Eli is
sitting back in the chair next to the bed and his eyes darken when they land on me. I feel my core clench just from his gaze, but I
push those thoughts away. Now is not the time for those thoughts. “Where’s faith” I ask, and his eyes return to their normal color.
“She is with my mother while we talk.” My heart squeezes in my chest. I look around the room and there are clothes sitting on the
bed. “I brought you these so you wouldn’t have to wear the hospital scrubs. Larisa picked them out, so I hope they fit.” “Thank
you” I say as I pick them up and head back into the bathroom. Once I’m dressed, I head back out and Eli smiles. “You look
beautiful.” I chuckle “it’s just jeans and a t-shirt, but thank you. The doctor said I’m discharged so I guess we can leave.” He nods
and puts his hand out to me. I place my hand in his and the tingles feel amazing on my skin.

He leads me down a path and the pack members we pass stare at our joined hands. I hear chatter of them asking each other if
I’m the new Luna. I hear one girl mention a girl named Suzanne being pissed when she finds out Eli is taken again. I make a
mental note to ask Eli about her later after our talk. We reach the pack house and he leads me upstairs. I expect us to head to
his office, but we don’t. He opens a door that leads to what I assume is the Alpha floor. I smile as I look around and see evidence
of Faith everywhere. Her toys are on the floor, her highchair sitting at the table, and her little shoes by the door. He leads me
over to the couch and we both take a seat. “What did you want to talk about Eli?” I see fear and sadness in his eyes. My heart
breaks for him and I pray that he hasn’t changed his mind.
Eli POV
As I walk toward the pack house to get Faith’s bottle, I can’t help the fear that I feel. I still can’t believe that Clara is Rose’s wolf. I
know how strange it sounds, but I’m glad that Clara will be there for Faith. My connection with Clara is gone and every part of me
wants to be with Calliope. She is my future. She is my mate. It truly won’t be weird because I can’t talk to Rose’s wolf, only she
can. I can’t thank Clara and the goddess enough for giving me this gift, but how will Calliope feel about it? I head toward my floor
and my mother is walking toward me. “Eli, I expected you to still be at the hospital. How is Calliope,” she asks. “She is good. The
doctor will probably discharge her this afternoon. I came to get Faith a bottle.” “What’s wrong Eli? Why do you look so worried? I
thought everything was good with you and Calliope now. Please tell me you didn’t hurt that girl again.” She takes Faith from my
arms. “I have accepted her completely, mom, but something happened and I’m not sure she will still want to be my mate.” She
looks at me like that is the dumbest thing she has ever heard. “I saw how defeated that woman was when you rejected her.” “I
never spoke the formal rejection. I was afraid, but I never rejected her.” “That is just a formality. You made her think you didn’t
want the bond. I understand why you did that, Eli, but it still hurt her. I’m just glad you realized that Calliope is a gift that you
deserve. Now what on earth would make you think she doesn’t want to be your mate.” I tell my mother about everything that
Rose told us. She gasps before a smile breaks out on her face. “That is wonderful. You’re worried that Calliope won’t want to be
with you because Clara is Rose’s wolf and that will be too hard for her to deal with?” I nod because I can’t bring myself to say it
out loud. “Eli, I love you but sometimes you don’t use the brains the goddess gave you.”
“Did you talk to your mate about how she is feeling or how you are feeling?” When I don’t answer she growls at me. “So, you are
borrowing trouble that might not even exist. Go talk to your mate, I will take care of Faith.” She takes Faith from me and I kiss her
head. She leans up and kisses my cheek before she heads to their wing. I stop at Larisa’s room to grab clothes for Calliope
because I’m sure she destroyed them when she shifted. After she is dressed, I lead her to the pack house. Once we reach our
floor, I lead her over to the couch. “Calliope, how are you feeling about everything that just happened? I know learning that my
former mate will still be part of our lives may be difficult for you.” “Eli, do you think I’m upset that Clara is Rose’s wolf? Eli, I love
that Clara is going to get a chance to see her pup grow up. It changes nothing about our bond for me. Did you think that I

wouldn’t want to be your mate because of that?” “It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t worried.” Before I know what’s happening,

Calliope straddles me and looks into my eyes. My goddess, she fits perfectly on my lap. Her scent is intoxicating and I can’t wait
to make her mine. Silas growls his agreement. He has been quiet since I made the decision to accept Calliope. I know it was
hurting him when I refused to accept her. “I’m just glad that you realized that Calliope was meant to be ours before it was too
late”, Silas says. “Me too, Silas.” “Now if your done talking to Silas I want to talk about the Crescent Moon pack.” I chuckle and
she smiles.
Calliope POV
“I’m glad that you accept that I am an Alpha. I can’t say that I wasn’t worried that you would want to have a Luna stand by your
side.” He smiles “I would never want you to change who you are to please me, Calliope.” I smile and his words spread warmth
through my chest. I tell him about everything that happened leading up to me leaving the pack and returning to end Mateo. He
rubs circles on my back as he listens to my story. “Mateo made certain I felt like the pack would never belong to me. I never
really felt like the Alpha of the Crescent Moon after the way Mateo treated me. After I killed Mateo, I took the title because the
pack needed an Alpha, but honestly I would like to appoint a new Alpha.” “You’re sure you don’t want to combine the packs. The
members from both would have equal rights under our rule. It is your birthright despite what that a**hole thought. He was a piss
poor excuse for an Alpha,” “I appreciate that, but the pack members have been through enough. Their lives are just getting to a
place where everyone feels valued and I don’t want to disrupt that. I would like the Crescent Moon to be our sister pack if you
agree.” He places his hand on my face and I can’t even explain the love I feel in this moment. “I think you are amazing and I
would love to have the packs be bound to each other. Do you know who you would like to appoint as Alpha?” “I do, but I will
need to discuss it with my Betas.” He growls low and I wrap my arms around his neck. “He is a friend, nothing more. I am yours
and yours only. You are the only man that will ever touch me.” He slams his lips down on mine and this kiss is nothing like the
one we shared earlier. It is sending heat to my core and I’m sure he is going to scent my arousal. This kiss is possessive and I
love every minute of it.
He stiffens and when he pulls back, I can see he is getting a link. His eyes are dark and he looks pissed. “There is a rogue at the
border that is requesting to speak with the Alpha.” “Let’s not keep our visitor waiting” I say and he smiles. He leads me through
the pack house and outside. As soon as we are outside, he starts to undress and I can’t help but check him out. He looks at me
confused when he notices I’m not undressing. I smirk and shift. He shifts and Silas is amazing. I can’t wait to spend time with him
too. Silas takes off and Aurora follows behind him. “Did you see our wolf mate, he is scrumptious”, Aurora says as we run. I can’t
help but laugh at her words. We reach the border and there are warriors already waiting. Eli shifts and turns toward me. I shift
and I see surprise flash in his eyes before he looks toward the rogue. “I am Alpha Eli Thomas and this is my mate, Alpha
Calliope. What do you want, rogue?” His stares at me which earns him a growl from Eli. “Keep looking at my mate like that and
you won’t live to speak.” The rogue looks back at Eli. “My master has a message for the Nightfire pack.” “Who is your master?”.

“You will know soon enough.” I growl this time “what is your message?” He turns to Eli. “You and everyone you love will pay for
your father’s sins” he says. “Take him to the cells now” Eli gives command and the rogue is taken into custody. Strong arms wrap
around me and he places his head in my neck, breathing in my scent. “No one will take our mate and pup from us.” Aurora
growls her agreement. He pulls back “we need to talk to my father and mother. I want to know who the f**k is threatening my
family. They are going to be very sorry.” I nod and we shift heading back toward the pack house.
