if you use express.json middleware it's gonna parse the body before it gets to the handler which mean it'd the read the body before the auth handler can get to it. If you remove that, it should work. Just apply the middleware to paths not handled by Better Auth.

not super familiar but I think the easiest way to do this is to put the handler before you mount the middleware. (not sure if this is the best approach) 
app.all("/api/auth", toNodeHandler(auth))
app.use(express.json()
app.all("/api/auth", toNodeHandler(auth))
app.use(express.json()

ok i'll try it, i'll let you know my progress, thanks for your fast response, really appreciate it this is how i did and its working! 
app.use((req, res, next) => {
  if (!req.path.startsWith('/api/auth/')) {
    express.json()(req, res, next);
  } else {
    next();
  }
});
app.use((req, res, next) => {
  if (!req.path.startsWith('/api/auth/')) {
    express.json()(req, res, next);
  } else {
    next();
  }
});
