14. Betrayal
This song is perfect for what is going on with Emma and Brant, it's Better Man by Little Big Town
Emma POV
Ever since my one and only conversation with Brant telling him about Zander also being my mate, Brant has been ignoring my calls and emails. I have called the pack house I have no idea how many times, I have called his cell phone my office phone and Steve and to no avail I can't reach Brant. When Steve finally just handed him his phone without telling him it was me, the conversation didn't go well, and he hung up on me after shouting at me.
I haven't been able to tell him about Aaron finding his mate, about what the reason why Zander has asked for me or the fact that something horrible happened with all this stress he has caused me and for that reason me, Aaron Exavier and Zander are on Zander's private jet heading home.
If it weren't for him ignoring my calls and for me feeling all his emotions I wouldn't...never mind I don't want to talk about that right now. I need to focus on relaxing and not working myself up at the moment because I know once I see Brant, things are going to get ugly.
Zander has been great; he has been keeping a little distance while I am dealing with Brant's attitude, but he is there for me when I need him. After the other day, he hasn't left my side though and he is trying his best to comfort me and keep a handle on his anger for my sake.
Once we land, we get our luggage and head to the parking lot and I unlock the SUV that is in the airports reserved parking and we all get in and I drive us to the pack house. It is early afternoon so everyone should be around since it is the weekend. On the drive though I feel this pain slowly creeping in my heart and I have to slow down and pull over because I can't focus on driving right now.
"Are you alright?" Zander asked me and I shake my head no and he gets out of the car and comes to my side and opens my door and when he goes to touch me, I feel more pain and scream and he hurries to put me in the passenger side and he gets in and we head faster to the pack house.
Once we get there I am taken out of the car and carried inside, pack members gasp and I can feel their worry and comforting words are sent to me though the link and I am trying to send a response back but the pain is to much.
"Where is Brant?" Zander asked someone and I hear them say in "Alpha Emma's suite sir."
"Can you go to my office and in my desk middle drawer get the spare set of keys to my suite and wait for us there Tony?" I asked him through the mind link.
"Welcome home! Yes, Alpha Emma, I will be there in a minute to get the keys for you." He replied right away.
"Thank you." I said and he nods in response in the link.
"Second floor, down the hall office. Tony will be there with the keys. I think I know what is going on so please go meet him and go to my suite, Tony will show you where it is and bring Brant to my office. I will be up soon; I need to calm down before I see him Zander." I said softly holding my heart and stomach as I feel my body ache.
"Yes of course." He said and kissed my forehead and went upstairs. A few minutes later I managed to make it to my office and as soon as I walked in, I can smell a few different scents. One of course is Steve as he spends time in here with Brant, Brant's scent of course and a few others of pack members so I know he uses my office a lot. I know the scents are females though, I can only imagine what they did in here. I sit in my chair and place my arms on the desk and lay my head down, closing my eyes and try to relax for a minute until I hear voices in the hall and a light knock on the door.
"Come in." I say as I sit up and put my head in my hands because I am starting to get a migraine already.
"Emma, I have Brant and some woman with me, both were well I will let them tell you." Zander said as he walked in and they came in behind him, half dressed and flushed skin.
"What are you doing back so soon?" is the first thing Brant says to me when he sees me.
"Hi Brant, it's lovely to see you too. I'm home because you wouldn't answer my many calls except the first one and after you hung up on me after I finally did talk to you, it caused me so much stress and I felt all of your anger and rage that I nearly lost my mind along with the pup I was carrying." I said with so much hate I could muster toward my pathetic mate and his whore next to him cowards next to him and bows her head as soon as she catches my eyes.
"Wait what, pup you were carrying, what do you mean?" Brant asked not even thinking of what I said.
"I lost the pup I was carrying, your pup because of your anger rage and not talking to me causing me stress. I found out a couple days after I got to London. I was four weeks along, I started spotting and cramping so I went to the pack doctor yesterday and she told me the pup had died and she did surgery on me and this morning after I called you ten times and no answer, I decided to come home because you wouldn't call me, you ignored me and caused me stress that I lost my baby because of you!" I said sobbing and finally letting the sadness and loss of my baby hit me full force.
"You tell me to reject Zander, you ignore my calls, I feel your anger and rage and with the stress of being away from home, worrying about if the pack is ok because you haven't talked to me to help me ease my mind and I come home and when I was on my way here, I felt pain and now I see what it was. You were sleeping with someone else, in our suite, in our bed we share? I can't look at you right now, I don't want you here. Go sleep in one of the empty houses on the land far from me. I am so close to rejecting you Brant for this so if you don't leave right now with your side bitch, I will, and I will kick you and her out of the pack. Do not contact me, I guess I really don't have to worry about that though since you have been doing great at that. I want your keys to the pack house and the suite before you leave, and Zander will be your shadow while you pack and leave." I said to him and Zander nods letting me know he will be his shadow.
They walk out of the office except Tony.
"Tony I wouldn't normally ask this sweetie but when he is out of the my suite would you be a doll and change my bedding. I don't want to smell them in my room and mask their scents from the room. I would like to go rest but I can't be in there with it smelling like them." I ask gently looking at him.
"Of course, don't you worry about a thing. After you rest just let me know when you wake, and I will help you with anything you need. I am sorry for your loss and I am sorry for Luna Brant." He said softly smiling at me.
"Thank you, sweetie. I don't know what I would do without you. We have a lot to catch up on but later. Take the rest of the day to relax, I hope Brant didn't make you work to hard. I told him not to work you hard." I said and he winches which tells me that he has worked his ass off.
"We will talk later as you said. Let me go see if he is out of the suite yet and I will do as you asked. Need me to make you something to eat?"
"No, I'm ok, thank you though." I said and he smiles and nods and walks out of the office. I would be lost without him I swear. He is such a sweetheart and so kind.
A few minutes later Tony tells me my room is cleaned up and Brant handed me the keys and left without a word or a look back to me. I go up to my suite and strip to take a bath and after I'm done with my warm relaxing bath, I dry off and get dressed in a pair of lose sweats and a sweatshirt and go lay down and take a nap. My return home wasn't good as I knew it wouldn't be, but I didn't think I would find my mate with someone else.
