Betrayed by My Beta Mate

Chapter 65

65 Epilogue

Two Months Later

Lily POV

I could not sleep last night. We are finding out what our pup is today and what my new niece or nephew is. Neal has been amazing. I thought for sure he would be overprotective because of his wolf, but he hasn’t. He trusts me, which I appreciate more than he will ever know. I would never do anything to put our pup at risk and he knows how strong I am. I’m in our kitchen on our floor making breakfast for us. It’s crazy that Neal and I have our own wing of the pack house. It’s like an apartment. We spend a lot of time with the pack, but it’s nice when we want it to just be the two of us. Neal walks in and smiles at me, putting his plate on the table. “It doesn’t matter what you’re doing, your beautiful.” I laugh “OK Casanova, come eat your breakfast. I want to get to the hospital. I’m so excited to find out what our pup is.” He pulls me into his arms. “Casanova, huh” he says with that smile that makes me weak in the knees. “Oh no, eat and then hospital.” He finally sits and I join him. Once we finish eating, we head downstairs and Amelia is waiting for us. I’m so glad she is joining us for the ultrasound. She is truly my sister and I can’t imagine her not being there.

I take Eli from her arms. “Hey buddy, where are auntie’s kisses”, I say as I plant kisses all over his face. His little laugh is so sweet and I can’t wait till our pup is here to grow up with him. “So are we ready to find out what my niece or nephew is” Amelia asks with a weird smile on her face. “What is that face about?” “I think that we should have a gender reveal lunch for all of you today.” “Are you kidding, you want me to wait till lunch?” She laughs “yes, I have the kitchen ready to make the cupcakes. Please, let me do this for you?” Oh I can’t tell her no. It is really sweet and it’s only a couple of hours. “I want lunch at 11 or no deal.” “No problem, we can make it happen at 11. Lincoln will be back and everyone can find out together.” I give her a glare. “Everyone but you.” “That’s the best part. I get to find out first.” I roll my eyes and she takes Eli from my arms so we can head to the hospital.

Once I’m on the table, the doctor comes in. “Luna and Gammas, good morning.” “Good morning” we say in unison. “Are we ready to see what the future Gammas are?” Before I can answer, Amelia tells the doctor about the gender reveal. He looks at me and Neal asking permission. We both nod and he starts the exam. He turns the screen so we can see the pup and it looks perfect. “Your pup’s growth is perfect for a hybrid.” I smile and look at Neal. He bends down, pressing a soft kiss on my lips. I hear the door close and both Amelia and the doctor are gone. “She is a sneaky thing”, I say, and Neal laughs. “Yes she is.”

Pheobe POV

I can’t believe that we get to find out what our pup is today. After I get out of the shower, I dry standing in front of the floor-length mirror. I turn to the side and place my hands on my big belly. I feel like it grew overnight. The pup has been moving all over the place. Michael was shocked the first time I let him feel the pup kick. The door opens and Michael comes in with a smile as he looks at my body. Before I can say anything, he is on his knees with his lips against my belly. He stands and kisses my lips. “Ready to check on our pup mama?” I chuckle “yes I am.” I get dressed in a blue sundress and sandals. Lily and Neal have their ultrasound today too. Lincoln had to meet with an Alpha about an alliance and Amelia stayed behind with Eli. John accompanied him to the meeting. Amelia usually goes with him but she decided that being with us was more important than today’s meeting. Amelia has become like a sister to me and I’m glad she will be there with us today. We are supposed to head to the coven later to spend a few days with my mom and Leland. She is so excited about being a grandmother.

We reach the pack hospital and the nurse leads us to an exam room. “The Luna is already across the hall with the Gammas”, the nurse says. I smile and the nurse leaves after Michael helps me get onto the table. A few minutes later, the doctor walks in with Amelia who is holding Eli on her hip. “What are Lily and Neal having?” Amelia looks like the cat that swallowed the canary. “They don’t know yet.” I look at her confused as she takes an envelope out of her pocket. “I am the only one that knows.” “Why do I have a feeling that you have something planned?” “That’s because you know me so well. The doctor

will give me your gender and we will have lunch before you leave for the coven to find out what you’re all having.” I look at Michael, “you heard the Luna.” I chuckle “I guess we can wait a little longer.” “Did you hear that Eli we are getting to have cupcakes today.?” Eli smiles like he knows what she is talking about. He is the sweetest little boy. The doctor takes his seat with the screen facing him. He begins to move the wand and Amelia gasps. “What’s wrong with the pup”, Michael says before I can. “No, nothing is wrong with pups.” Did I hear him right, he said pups? It can’t be, we had an ultrasound before. They would have already seen if it was twins. I look at Michael and he looks like he is on cloud nine.

“Yes, Betas, there are two pups. One must have been hiding when we did your first ultrasound.” I can’t believe this, we are having two pups. Michael takes my hand and squeezes it. “Are you alright love?” “Yes, I’m fine. A little shocked but fine.” After a few minutes, he hands Amelia a paper. “Everything looks perfect with the pups” the doctor says before he wipes my belly. “I need to get to the kitchen so we can have a very special lunch”, Amelia says as she heads for the door. Michael helps me sit up and wraps his arms around me. “Thank you, love.” I chuckle “I don’t think I did it by myself Michael.” He pulls back “thank you for accepting me, loving me, and making me a father.” I press my lips against his. I am so grateful for my family and my mate.

Lunch

Amelia POV

After I gave the genders to the girls in the kitchen, I head upstairs. with Eli. I have butterflies swirling around my stomach. Eli is babbling when I set him on the floor in our room. I pull the test off under the mattress. “Hey buddy, can you keep a secret?” He places his little fingers on my face. “I’ll take that as a yes.” I show him the test. “You’re going to be a big brother. Do you want to help mama tell your daddy?” He keeps babbling and I smile. Once we are both ready, we head down the hallway and I’m greeted by my handsome mate. “So I heard that you have orchestrated a takeover of the gender reveals.” “I

wouldn’t say a takeover, but I am the only one besides the girls in the kitchen that know what everyone is having.” He smirks and leans down to kiss me before he steals Eli. “What’s in the bag love?” “Something for the reveal and no you can’t look.” He takes my hand and we head to the private dining room. Charles, Lorraine, Neal, Lily, Pheobe, Michael, Iris, Walker, Maureen, John, and Pheobe are all waiting for us. Needless to say, everyone eats as quickly as possible.

“Alright, Amelia, it’s time” Lily says. The girls bring in three platters of cupcakes. One says Pheobe and Michael and the other says Neal and Lily. The third is for everyone to eat. I look at Pheobe and Michael so they can announce about having the twins before we start. Phoebe stands this time. “We have an announcement before we find out the gender. We are about to find out what our pups are.”

Everyone is smiling from ear to ear. “Twins, your having twins” Lily says and goes around the table to hug her. “Alright let’s see what my the new little beans are.” I bring the tray to Lily and Neal first. “Now bite the cupcake at the same time.” They both do and the tears run down Lily’s face before she turns it toward us. It’s pink, a little girl. “We’re having a girl” she says and kisses Neal. Iris wraps her in her arms and I am so glad she is here to share this life and journey with her daughter. Everyone congratulates them and I take the tray over to Phoebe and Michael. I point to the first two cupcakes.

Pheobe and Michael bite down at the same time. They both turn them toward us and have the biggest smiles on their faces. The frosting is blue. “We’re having a boy”, Michael yells and we all laugh. “Let’s see what pup number 2 is, the hider.” They bite into the second cupcake and Phoebe’s eyes get big. They turn the cupcake toward us and bright pink frosting is oozing out. “It’s a girl, a boy and a girl. Oh my goddess” Pheobe says. I’m so happy for both of them. After everyone congratulates them, the girls start to hand out the remaining cupcake. When they put the one I asked for in front of Lincoln I can’t help but smile. He takes a bite and looks around at everyone else eating their cupcakes. After he realizes his is different with pink and blue frosting in the middle, he looks at me confused. I stand and bring him the bag. “This is from me and Eli.” The room gets quiet and he opens the bag. When he realizes what it is, he looks up at me with hope and love in his eyes. “Is this what I think it is?” “Yes, weConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

are going to have another pup?” He stands scooping me up in his arms. “Thank you, Amelia, for making me a father again. I love you more every day.”
