Cheated

Chapter Five- Part 1

SOPHIE DAVIS

"What the fuck is he doing here?" Austin repeated, so loudly that I'm sure the entire pack house could hear him. I shouldn't have come here, but I didn't expect Austin to show up.

"I-he," I stuttered. How could I have let this happen? I knew Matthew was coming over, I guess it had escaped my mind when Austin began kissing me.

"Answer me before I fucking rip his head off!" he shouted, menacingly.

"We-we were going on a date," I told him quietly, looking down at my feet.

"Of course! Of fucking course! I should have known you would pull something like this." He was shaking his head while staring at Matthew, and if looks could kill...

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that you're the one who cheated on Sophie with my sister," Matthew shot back, raising his eyebrows.

I could tell he was angry, but he wasn't even half as mad as as Austin was right now. I didn't doubt that Austin was about three seconds from ripping his head right off of his body.

"Go fuck yourself! Your sister is a stupid slut who drugged me. In fact, I'm thinking about taking this case to The Elders. What would they say about an Alpha being drugged and taken advantage of?"

"I guess that's one thing we can agree on then," Matthew remarked, chuckling slightly, disregarding Austin's earlier threat.

"What are you talking about?" Austin snapped, glaring angrily at him. I was just as confused as Austin was. These two could actually agree on something?

"My sister is a slut, and I don't give a shit what you tell the elders," Matthew cleared things up. I was shocked at the way he was talking about his sister. She is a conniving bitch-whore, but she's also his sister.

"Do you really believe she took advantage of you?" I asked Austin, slightly wary, but still concerned. Was it possible that Austin was completely out of it when I walked in on him, it surely hadn't seemed that way. I couldn't resist wondering though as Austin's words rang through my mind on repeat; had Austin really been taken advantage of? Raped?

"Yes, I was given something that's for sure, I would have never done that in my right mind." As sure as he sounded, I didn't entirely believe him.

"Come on Sophie, don't believe that shit, he's full of it," Matthew said, shaking his head.

Ugh, I just couldn't handle this, conflicting emotions were tearing me every which way and then I was over taken with sadness, didn't these men realize what I'd been through? Apparently not.

Suddenly, out of no where, I began crying. Lightly at first, and then, ear piercing sobs. Austin and Matthew watched in stunned silence, as I lowered myself onto the bed, burying my face into the pillow.

For the past couple of weeks I had been holding this back, the heartbreak over loosing my mate and my pup all within a couple of minutes. But now all I could think about was what could have been.

Would my pup have been a girl or a boy? Would it have had my pale blue eyes or Austin's deep blue? They were hard thoughts to think of, but they meant something beyond important and special to me; they were sacred.

"Get the fuck out!" I heard Austin yell, but I wasn't paying any attention, just the thought in the back of my mind about the harshness of his tone.

How could my life have gone from perfect, to this all within a matter of a month? Suddenly, I felt the bed dip, and a hand rubbing my back. "He's gone, it's okay," I heard Austin say, his voice low. I didn't want to welcome his touch, but I was in great need of comfort.

I wanted to scream at him, tell him that it's him, he's the problem, not Matthew, but instead, I let him pull me under the covers with him. I rested my head on his chest, forgetting, for the time being; his betrayal.

I just didn't understand how Austin could be so oblivious, he was tearing me apart from the inside out and he didn't even think twice of it. He needed to understand my pain. He hadn't gone through anything that I had to!

A miscarriage, betrayal and the loss of my mate, he'd only endured the latter and he was being a huge baby about it. Every heart ache I felt as my body un-tensed, I blamed on him, every regret I saw in the back of my mind; everything was his fault!

"I love you," he whispered against my ear.

I tried to fathom the situation I was in, it was surely something I'd never considered would be my actual life before, I didn't consider it any further as I drifted off into the deepest, most restful sleep that I'd had in a long time. Since he cheated.
