My Mate and Brother's Betrayal

93 Bonus Chapter 1 Logan POV

"Logan, I swear to the goddess if you don't move your a** I'm leaving to see the pups without you," Mindy says. I smile. She is typically super sweet, but since she is very pregnant she is irritable. Not that I blame her. I can't imagine growing another person in my body. It makes me so happy the goddess made me a man. I make my way downstairs where Mindy, Reese, Maureen, and Barrett are waiting.

"Goddess, I hate that we can't just teleport. When is this pup going to be born? I'm almost six months, already," Mindy says. "Don't worry sweetheart, the pup will be here before you know it. The doctor said hybrid pregnancies are a little unpredictable," Maureen says.

The ride to the Blue Crescent is full of excited chatter. Maureen is talking animatedly about all

the pups being born around the same time. When we pull up to the pack gates, Rome, my wolf, seems to be on edge. Before I can ask him what the hell is going on with him, the car comes to a stop. Reese helps Mindy out of the car. We start up the path that leads to the pack house.

Emmett is waiting on the steps with a huge smile on his face. I've always liked Emmett.

Unlike his pr*ck of a brother, he genuinely cared about Rosalyn. I push thoughts of my former mate out of my head. Even though his rejection hurt, I meant what I said to him. I'm glad he is my ex-mate.

"Wait till you see them," Emmett says, bringing me out of my thoughts. "They are both perfect and Lily is so in love with them. Come on, they're waiting for you upstairs," Emmett says. As we make our way through the pack house, Rome starts to lose his sh*t. "What the f**k is going on with you?" Rome stays quiet and I don't push as we reach the Alpha floor.

We reach a large wooden door. Emmett pushes it open and we all step inside. "Logan❞ Addie squeals and launches herself at me. A low growl makes me smile. I set Addie on her feet and

reach out to shake Jayden's hand. "Sorry man, my wolf is being a pain in the a**" "No

problem, mines been out of sorts today too." We head farther inside the wing and find Rosalyn sitting on the couch holding a blue bundle in her arms.

The happiness on her face is contagious and when she spots me she waves me over. I notice

that Beck is holding a purple bundle in his arms. Maureen and Mindy are already heading for the pups. I plop down next to Rosalyn as Mindy takes her son from her arms. Everone is fussing over the pups and not paying much attention to us. "How are you feeling Rose?" "Really happy Logan, how are you?"

"Busy, Reese is a really great Alpha and I don't want to disappoint him." "You seem shocked

that he is a good Alpha. Despite everything that happened, Logan, Reese was always going to be a great Alpha. He just lost his way for a while." I look at my Alpha and Luna cooing over the pup and smile. "I'm glad he found his way back. I'm happy that he has Mindy." "Me too, they were meant for each other. Enough about them, I'm interested in how you've been after" she starts to say, but I cut her off.

"I know what you're about to say, but honestly, the minute he rejected me any feelings I had fo him, died. I'm proud of you for protecting your family."I notice a tear slide down her cheek and I wipe it away. I wonder if she has been carrying guilt. Not for ending Bryce but because she

thought I would be upset. "Now enough of the heavy stuff. Tell me your pups' names."

"The little girl that Maureen is holding is Abigale Miranda and my son's name is Jameson Emmett" she says. The way she is gazing at her pups makes my chest ache. I hope one day

that I can have a pup. I know there are plenty of children in the pack orphanage that need someone that will love them. Even if I don't have a mate, I can still have a family.

Rome is starting to pace again. "Rome, why are you so anxious?" Before he can even answer, the scent of apples and cinnamon surround me. "Mate" Rome growls, and I'm out of my seat moving toward the door. "Logan, what's wrong," Addie asks me, but I don't stop to answer her.

As I follow the scent down the stairs, it's getting stronger.

"Find our mate," Rome growls. I want to roll my eyes. What the hell does he think I'm trying to do? We follow the scent down a hallway until we reach what I can only assume is a kitchen. As my eyes search the room, they fall on a tall man with broad shoulders that is standing with his back to me. His blonde hair is longer pulled into a man bun on top of his head. I can see he is talking to one of the girls in the kitchen. I see the moment she notices me, but what I notice more is when his whole body stiffens.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

F**k this is my second chance and I already want him desperately. Please goddess let him want me too. As he starts to turn, my knees damn near buckle. He's gorgeous and I can tell by his build he is a warrior. Hell if I didn't already know that Jayden was Beta I would have guessed that he was. When my eyes finally meet his, I see a mix of fear and sadness. Does he not want me? Did he not expect to be mated to a man?

Brent POV

I make my way through the pack house and toward the Alpha wing. Things are less strained between me and Beck, but we aren't back to the friends we used to be. I hope some day we will be. I've gotten really close to Jayden. Him being Beta and me, head warrior, means we spend a lot of time together. Both he and Beck asked me to come meet the ranked members of the Black Rose since I was part of the team that dealt with the rogues on the night of the 2/3

I'm almost to the door when Jayden links me. "Can you stop by the kitchen on your way here to remind Gia about the quests for tonight?" "Sure" I say cutting the link and making my way back downstairs. I don't mind heading to the kitchen. Gia always has cookies or something sweet I can steal. As soon as I walk in, she spots me. "What's up, Brent?" "Beta wanted me to

remind you about the guests from the Black Rose that have arrived."

"Everything is ready. I even made apple pies and homemade icecream for dessert," she says. "You're the best Gia. I can't wait." I notice her eyes move to something behind me, but before I can turn the scent of vanilla and mint invades my nose. Otto starts pushing to the surface to take control, but I stop him. "Mate, our mate is behind you. Turn around, I want to see him,"

Otto says. I finally manage to get my legs to move and turn to face the man that is my second chance. 

My goddess, he's beautiful. He has short cropped dark hair and his eyes are almost as dark. I can tell he's a Beta because he is muscular and a little bigger than me. Otto starts showing me filthy ideas of what he wants to do to our mate. "Enough Otto, we don't even know if he wants us." Otto whimpers and I hate that my first thought is automatically this man will cause us pain like the a**hat that won't be named.

After a few seconds, he takes a step toward me and speaks a word I never thought I would hear again. "Mate" he says. "Mate," I say, taking a step toward him. He closes the distance pulling me into his arms and slamming his lips down on mine. I don't even care that we have an audience. I melt into this man's touch. I kiss him like a starving man that has just found his. next meal.

A loud throat clearing has us breaking apart, but his hand stays firmly wrapped around me as we turn to face everyone. "As happy as I am that you two have found your second chance, I can't have you scarring my head omega by finishing your mating in the pack kitchen" Beck says. "Hell with that. It was hot" Gia says. The whole room erupts with laughter as Gia fans herself. I guess they were wrong. It's the second time that's the charm.
