The Betrayal

Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Katie’s P.O.V

I had my eyes glued to the t.v. when I heard the doorbell. Knowing no one else was going to get up and get it, I quickly dashed over to the door, hoping not to miss a second of Vampire Diaries.

When I opened the door I was both shocked and elated.

“Oh, hey, Katie. I didn’t know you were here.” at Adam’s words, my happiness turned to confusion. If he wasn’t here to see me, then who?

My answer came when I saw Amethyst coming down the stairs. She was wearing a royal blue halter dress that barely made it to her mid-thigh.  She had on 3-inch heels and was wearing just the right amount of make-up. On anybody else, I would say they looked sl*tty, buy she somehow made it look classy.

“Wow, Myst, you look beautiful” I felt a sharp pain in my chest once I heard Adam’s words. I turned to him and noticed the adoring look in his eyes as he gazed at her.

“You look quiet handsome yourself, Adam” she replied as she stared at my Mate, who was wearing khakis and a dark blue button down shirt that matched her dress.  He really did look handsome. Once Amethyst noticed me, staring at them in both jealousy and anger, she smirked at me.

“Come on. The others will meet us in the restaurant later. Bye, Katie” Amethyst said once she turned to me.  I had to clear my face of any emotion once she grabbed Adam’s arm and led him outside.

“Bye, Katie.” I heard my Mate say as he left with another girl.

Breaking my heart with every step they took.

****

I stared blankly at the t.v. for a few more minutes before I decided to go to bed. It has been two hours since Adam and Amethyst left and the pain of not knowing what they were doing was killing me.

Ever since they walked out the door, my Wolf hasn’t stopped whimpering and growling. She wanted me to go after them and kill Amethyst. She didn’t like the fact that her Mate was spending time with another woman. Another woman who was both beautiful and single.

“Hey, are you okay?” I jumped at the voice and turned, glaring, and  ready to yell at him/her when I froze.

“Sorry, Alpha, I didn’t know it was you.” I whispered while bowing my head.

“First of all, I’m not your Alpha yet. Secondly, you know you can call me by my name. We are friends, aren’t we?”

“You’re right. Sorry, Lucas.” I said while smiling at him.

“Now, will you tell me what’s wrong, Kitten?” he asked me softly.

Kitten. Lucas hasn’t called me that in years, and I’ve kind of missed it.  When people saw Lucas they saw a spoiled, womanizing, a-hole. But when I saw him, I saw the sweet gentle boy that showered me with love and presents.  The day he broke up with me, hurt.  A lot. I thought we had something special, but I guess he didn’t feel it. Though it hurt, it wasn’t very surprising. The days leading up to the break up, he’d been acting weird. He would pull away very quickly when we kissed and sometimes I would see hatred or disgust in his eyes when he looked at me. I assumed I was imagining it, but I never asked him about it. Now that I’ve met my Mate I realized my feelings for him weren’t really as strong as I thought they were. I lost the grudge I had against him and we were now back to being friends.  

“Nothing’s wrong, I’m fine” I answered him while avoiding eye contact.”

 “We both know that’s B.S , now tell me truth.”

“My- My Mate is dating another woman.” I told him while bursting into tears.

“You have a Mate?” he asked me, surprised.

“Yeah, I found him a few months ago” I muttered.

“Did he reject you?” he asks, his voice filled with both anger and pain.

“What? No!” I answer “My Mate is a human. He doesn’t know about us. At least, not yet.”

“Oh” he answered, unsure of what to say.

“Do you want to know the worst part?” I asked him. “The worst part is that he’s dating someone I once considered my friend.  If he dated anyone else I feel as if it’d hurt a little less, but no. He just so happens to date Amethyst. And since when-“

“Wait” he cuts me off “Who is he dating?” His face is filled with both hope and pain, which confuses me. Why is he acting so damn weird? Can’t he tell I’m miserable and don’t want to answer any questions, especially questions  about her?
“Amethyst. Remember her? Nerdy, dark curly hair? Weird violet eyes? Lied to everyone about being your Mate? Does it ring a bell?” I asked him feeling a little annoyed.

“When-When did you see Amethyst? Are you sure it was her? Where is she?”

“Seriously? You didn’t know? Everyone knew so I just assumed you knew too” I trailed off confused. Wasn’t it a well-known fact that Amethyst was back?

“No. I didn’t know” he answered, his voice turning guttural and his eyes darkening. “When did she come back?”

“She’s the Third-in-Command of the Dark Arrow Pack. Everyone calls her Myst, but we all know it’s Amethyst.”

“I-I have to go” Lucas said before practically storming out of the room.

What the h*ll just happened? I asked myself, confused. I’d never seen Lucas act like that.

Well, at least he was able to distract me from my miserable mood.

Even if it was just for a few minutes.
