The Betrayal

Chapter 38

Dear Readers,

I want to apologize about the late update. Lately there have been a lot of things getting in the way of updating. Whether it is work, school, or being sick, there hasn't really been time for me to do it. So I would like to apologize for this. Starting now, though, I would like to update AT LEAST once a week. I can't promise that I will do it every week, but I am hoping I can.

I want to thank all of you for not losing hope and continuing to read my story.

I am sorry this chapter isn't very long BUT I am hoping my next chapter is!

Until next time!

Chapter 38

Amethyst's P.O.V

The next month passed by in a blur. Between buying baby clothes, baby furniture, and getting ready for the rogues life was as tiring as usual.

One good thing that has happened is that both Lucas and Katie have stayed away from me. Lucas can barely even look at me now. It made me glad, but it caused my Wolf a lot of grief. She hated knowing that her Mate couldn't stand being in the same room as her.

Liam. What can I say about Liam? I finally managed to convince Jenna to forgive him three weeks ago. At first I liked seeing him suffer bit, but after a while the pain in his eyes began to get to me. Being an Alpha I knew for a fact that the agony of having his Mate ignore him would make it ten times more painful. The bags under his eyes and the obvious weight loss were painful to see. Especially on the guy I once considered a brother. Even Jenna began to see the effect she was having on him. The guilt and pain in her eyes every time she saw him finally convinced me to tell her to forgive him. It took a while but she finally decided to forgive him. And the joy in both their eyes the next morning showed that o was right I'm getting them back together. I haven't really talked to him, though. There was a big difference between wanting to end his misery and forgiving him.

As for Katie, I wasn't too sure. I really haven't seen her since we told her about the baby. Jenna thinks she is grieving, but I'm not too sure. No Wolf would let their Mate be taken and do nothing about it. It just wasn't in our nature. SO I have to make sure to always be careful, and have decided to not go anywhere all on my own. You can never be too careful when you are pregnant and have a lot of mortal enemies.

Then there was Josh. For the past month Josh has been nothing but supportive. He always goes with Jenna, Amy, and me to the mall to buy the baby clothes. He is also the one to help put the furniture together. And then there is the fact that he is always making sure I am fed and well rested. I mean how amazing is he? I gotta say, I am both surprised and happy at the way he is treating me. As if I were fragile. And while I would normally hate being treated like this, I can't really but love the feeling of being loved and protected. Who wouldn't?

And where has Adam been? He has been trying to help me with the pregnancy but I could tell that he was getting frustrated with me. We could barely be in the same without yelling at each other. And nine out of ten times, I left the room trying to contain my tears. Key word being TRYING.

I care about Adam, I really do. But there were times when I just wanted to strangle him. I truly am trying to make us work for the sake of the baby, but I feel like he isn't trying hard enough. If he isn't giving me dirty looks every time I complain about my back or my feet- because as much as I hated to admit it, I really was gaining weight and it was making my body sore- then he was annoyed by my mood swings. But that isn't really my fault either. It was his for not wrapping it up.

If that wasn't enough to make him hate me, there was also the fact that his father kicked him out of his house. Turns out having a baby before getting married led to hell. And he didn't want to go down with his son.

Of course, I offered him to stay with us, but he refused. So as of now he is living in an apartment by himself.

So all in all I'm beginning to regret ever being with him.

But at least I'll have my Munchkin once this all over.

And that is all that really matters.
