Lennox’s P.O.VI removed my earplugs, my gaze flickering to Levi and Renee. My brows furrowed in confusion, wondering what she was doing here because the last time that I checked, we didn’t call for her. A mischievous smile played on my lips and I rose, sauntering towards her direction with my hands slipped down my pocket. “Look who we have here. You love the pain so much that no matter how much you claim to hate it, you will always be back here in our den and……” Before I could say my words, Levi cut in, connecting with me through a mind link. “Stop whatever you are doing now. It isn't the time for this”My brows creased and I responded through the mind link. “What are you talking about? Didn't she come here to make up for the stunt that she pulled alongside Louis?”Levi shook his head immediately, his hands leaving her and there was something about Renee’s face that took me aback. Her face looked pale and her lips were dried and to worsen things, she didn't respond to my previous
Renee With the help of the housekeeper, she helped me get to the dining room since it was hard for me to find my way around this house. As she guided me, memories about everything that happened the previous day flashed through my mind and anger flared within me. Simultaneously, I felt gratitude towards Levi for his help and to Lennox and Louis for letting me stay in their home. However, I knew I needed to plan my escape. Despite my appreciation, it was only a matter of time before the triplets reverted to their true nature and took advantage of my presence. But, where would I go? No pack is going to accept me. At that moment, anxiety crept at the back of my neck because of the crazy things that they would do to me. I just couldn’t wait for the contract to end and then, I would reject them. I was soon jolted out of my thoughts when firm hands grasped my shoulders. When his scent wafted through my nostrils, I knew that it was Louis. “Are you fine now? But why are you d
Levi’s P.O.VRenee thought that she was invisible. She thought that the reason why we hadn’t taunted her was because we didn’t notice her. What she didn’t know was that we were giving her time to grieve and most importantly, what she didn’t know was that predators wait for the perfect time to catch their prey. How in the world was I supposed to resist the mate bond when she was everywhere, taking total control of my senses? Like a prey ready to pounce on its predator, I gripped her by the arm, my hands pressing against her mouth in a bid to suppress the screams that were about to escape her lips. As soon as the door slammed shut, my hands left her mouth and her chest heaved as she sniffed and raised a brow. “Levi?”A coy smile crossed my face as I plopped on the seat behind me, twirling the painting brush in my hands as my eyes swept down her body. “I guess that you had fun hiding, princess?”She scrunched her nose and attempted to find the door by using her stick. “I have…….” H
Nerissa’s P.O.V My heart froze as time slowed down and the words that kept echoing through my mind was that of the teacher’s. “White Swan” My lips wobbled and I stuttered out. “M-Medusa, it was supposed to be Medusa’s statue” I fisted my skirt, swallowing hard before I shot a glare at Renee’s back. I darted my eyes to Lennox who had a coy smile tugging at the corner of his lips and slowly, something in me shifted, one puzzle piece clicking into place. My lips parted open, anger coursing through my veins as he stared at me dead in the eye. The triplets were behind the prompts being changed. They must have manipulated their dad into changing it and since their dad was the school’s biggest sponsor and my parents were second after him, then it was possible. “Smile, Nerissa” He mouthed from afar. “Smile or you might just end up crying” A rueful smile crept at the corner of his mouth before he moved away and stood in the space reserved for him. My heart squeezed and the
Chapter one Renee’s P.O.V “Happy Birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy Birthday Nerissa” The beautiful hums that emanated from the sitting area filled my ears while I stood in the darkness, opening the kitchen faucet in a bid to rinse the plate. It was my sister’s birthday and she had just turned 18. Sadly, it was mine as well but my adopted parents never considered me as their daughter because I was nothing but a lowly wolfless omega, clumsy, frail, and timid and to worsen it I was….. “Arrgh” A painful groan escaped my lips and the plate that I was holding fell to the ground at that moment, my heart slammed against my ribcage because I knew that I was done for. Her scent wafted through my nostrils and before I knew what was happening, she grabbed a fistful of my hair, screaming while I shuddered. “You blind girl! I know that you can’t see but can your brain let you know that the whole sink is foaming with bubbles?” I shrieked, mumbling while trying to adjus
Chapter two Renee’s P.O.V As soon as those horrible words escaped her lips, I fell to the ground, clutching my chest as I kept exhaling in panic. I heard Nerissa click her tongue, and the sound of her footsteps approaching me, and when I heard the sound of dried leaves crunching underneath her shoe, I knew that she had crouched down before me. Struggling to breathe, I choked a whisper, tears streaming down my face like a free fall. “Why? Why are you doing this to me, Nerissa? What have I done to deserve this?” Nerissa burst into a peal of hysterical laughter. “So you didn't like my birthday gift……” Her words trailed as she clicked her tongue in her mouth. Slowly, I felt her fingers trail my jaw as she lifted it. “You seem to be forgetting that if I am not happy, then you can't be. How can you have a boyfriend when I am single? Anyways, no one must hear about this not even my parents because if you tell anyone about this, I will ensure that your mentally deranged mum is k
Chapter Three Author’s Narration The last thing that the triplets ever imagined was the fact that they would be mated to Renee, the same woman whom they considered a murderer and a pretentious being who used her blindness as a facade to act as a saint even though she was purely evil! To Lennox, Levi, and Louis, only evil would be used to cure evil and by evil, they meant—Renee. Lennox, Levi, and Louis were made to leave the country shortly after their mum passed away after battling cancer for years. Their father, who was the Alpha of the Eclipse moon pack, was more bothered about the issue of the pack than caring about his family. The relationship that the triplets shared with their father was nothing to write home about because not only was he abusive towards them, he would always blame them for all the bad things happening. He blamed them for being behind their mum’s death and he also blamed Louis for being stuck with Nerissa in the fire, telling him that he should
Renee’s P.O.V As soon as that soothing feeling eluded me, I snapped back to my senses and at that moment, my breath came in short panicked gasps. Everyone murmured and I could imagine the shocks on their faces because of what had just happened. The moon goddess had to play some tricks with my destiny because how………How could I be mated to the Alpha Devils? Nerissa screamed. “This has to be a joke! You ruined my cake and dared to be mated to my ex and…..” Before she could complete her words, strong arms encircled me, lifting me to my feet and I was hoisted onto the shoulders of one of the triplet brothers. The blindfold slowly slipped off my eyes and the bright light in the hall caused my eyes to squeeze shut and a groan left my lips while I was still trying to decipher which one of the triplet brothers carried me. However, when a deep voice echoed through the whole place, I heard one of the brothers say. “Lennox, let me adjust it” “Alright, Louis” My hea
