Betrayed by Three Mates

I wake to my three mates still naked after the night of passion we all had. Though it stared out as a fight between the four of us it soon turned in to something with fire by the end of the night. I brush the hair out of my mate Lydia’s face as she sleeps soundly. She had so many struggles in her life and I did my best to protect her, but I feel like she’s slipping from me. Me and Lydia had been best friends all our lives. We had the same birthdays, Our mother were friends and we wore neighbours. However Lydia’s father was abusive and a drunk. Often she would stay at our house, my mother was a single mother after she lost her mate in a Rouge attack after they found out she was pregnant with me. My mother did her best to protect Lydia and her mother, but Lydia’s mother was not ready to admit to the abuse. On our fourteenth birthday we both got our wolves, but sadly on that day her father would beat her mother to death. A week later Lydia’s mental state would plummet as she watched her father behead for her mothers death. I did my best to help, she was my best friend, so I gave her all my love I could. I swore I would never leave her side. She unfortunately had a bit of a mean streak, but I new it was just because she was hurting. So I did my best to make her shine brightly. I made sure she got good marks on her tests. I kept students from bullying her by changing their comments to me. If she felt upset or insecure I would ease her pain. I’ll admit I some time felt hurt by her actions and her lack of understanding, but I was willing to suck it up. If she liked a dress I was wearing I would give it to her, if she felt I was talking to much attention from her I would draw back, if someone asked me on a date I would drop them if she told me to. I loved to make her happy even at my owne expense because I loved her more than anything. Nether of us could predict our future. When one day at a mating ball on our 18th birthday that not only wore we mates to each other, but had two other mates as well. Eric and Marc, wore two perfect peace’s of our puzzle. We became Alphas and Luna’s of an old, but dying pack and made it live again. In two years the four of us accomplish much. However hiding Lydia’s mental heath condition from our mates had become challenging for me. She had bagged me to keep it a secret from our other mates convinced they would not want her anymore, I told her that they would still love her, but I respected her wishes and help her hid it. Our fight last night was Lydia accusing me of trying to steal Eric and Marc for my self. It was painful for me… Hours before: “How can you let her do this, can’t you see what Yara is doing. Just admit it you love her more than me, I’m just a waste of space to you!” Lydia screamed at the three of them. Her sobbing was uncontrollable. All Yara could do was approach her slowly “Lydia, I love you. I would never take our mates from you or you from them or any of you. I’m sorry I made you feel that way” I slowly wrapped her arms around my mate letting the bond soothe and comfort her. I stroked her long blond hair and coaxed Marc and Eric to come an embrace Lydia as well. Eric and Marc looked at each other nervously as they wrapped their arms around each other. “My love…” Marc hesitated “we simply couldn’t find you and got caught up in the moment, we wore not excluding you. Eric wasn’t even there at the start, he just felt our love making through the bond and wanted to join in. If you wished you could have joined as well” I grimaced at his comment knowing she would be upset. Lydia snapped up a glared at him “so you didn’t even think of me! You new I would have felt what you wore doing without me and you did it anyways” Yara could feel her mates erratic anguish and did her best to cover for her mate so that the others wouldn’t question. “You’re right Lydia I was being selfish and I’m sorry. Sometimes it’s hard to share I’ll do better will you forgive me” I smiled at her sadly and I could feel her calm. She looked up at me with her tear filled glass blue eyes and sniffing she said “I forgive you.” She placed her soft lips on mine.
