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 have just died with his brothers! Since that time, the urge, the anger to pay back Renee for everything and make her life miserable had always lived in their hearts. All they wanted was to break her so bad! Years passed and the triplets returned to the country but with one thing in mind— To keep Renee so close and make her life a living hell! Lennox stepped inside the hall where Nerissa’s birthday party was being held and the first thing he did was to swivel his gaze around the entire place in search of Renee. “I can’t find her anywhere,” He said. Levi nodded. “Same here, are you sure that she is still alive and that you did as we planned?” Louis shrugged. “Of course. She must be around here, I am sure of that” Still trying to search for Renee, the triplets exchanged pleasantries with some of their childhood friends but Nerissa on seeing them scoffed, rolling her eyes to the back. Lennox smirked, patting Louis on the shoulder. “It seems like your ex is still in love with you” Louis scowled. “That doesn’t look like love to me but hatred; however the good thing is that I also don’t like her. She can go to hell as long as I care so where is this…..” Before he could complete his words, the Luna began her speech, announcing the triplets as being among those that would be attending the school’s senior year. Lennox watched as she gave her boring speeches before he leaned by his side and toned down his voice. “I know that she hates us and our guts! But does she have any option, Alpha Raymond is the biggest sponsor of the Elites Arts High School” Levi scoffed. “And we are his children, she can’t do…..” Levi’s words soon got stuck in his throat as soon as he spotted Renee with a blindfold over her eyes, hiding behind the other servants. Levi noticed that she had gotten prettier than before except for her frail nature and in that moment, a mischievous smile graced his lips as he mouthed. “Bingo!” A smirk crept at the corner of his lips, diverting Lennox and Louis’s attention towards Renee. “There she is,” Lennox said. A rueful smile crossed Louis’s face. “I told you that she is still alive” To keep Renee closer to them, the triplets devised a plan to make sure that Renee was being kept by their side so they did something crazy. Leaving the task to Louis, Louis paid an insider in Nerissa’s house to make sure that Renee’s name was added to the ballot box. The triplets weren’t strange to the fact that Renee always tried to avoid and hide from them so to keep her around them and begin their revenge plans, they had to ensure that she was the lucky winner. The craziest thing about all of this was that all the papers in the Ballot box contained only Renee’s name! Louis perfected things in a way that he made the insider destroy the first ballot box that contained all the other applicant's name and exchanged it for a box that was only filled with Renee’s name. The fear on Renee’s face when she was announced as the lucky candidate delighted them and they watched as she panicked in fear. However, things soon took a different turn when Renee collided with the cake and as much as they didn’t care that she was humiliated since it was clearly what she deserved, the last thing Louis wanted was for Nerissa to hit Renee. Lennox mind-linked with his brothers at that very moment. “I know that we all hate Renee but we can’t watch Nerissa hit her because she is a loser as well!” Levi locked eyes with Louis before darting his eyes to Lennox and he responded through the mind-link. “I agree” Louis scoffed and without thinking twice, he snarled at Nerissa but things worsened when at that moment, they all discovered that they were mated to Renee. The feeling, her scent pulled them closer to her and it was mind-blowing but amidst all of that, the hate that they had for her was much more than whatever they felt in that moment. Levi's mind- linked with his brothers. “What do we do?” Lennox, who was still in shock, glanced at Levi. “Should we humiliate and reject her right here” Louis on the other hand, stared intently at Renee before tilting his head to the left while he responded through the mind-link. “I have an idea. The goal is to keep her close and the moon goddess has already decided to help us by making us mates” “Are you guys thinking what I am thinking?” A creepy smile danced on Levi’s face as he fixed his gaze on Renee. “I think that we are starting to be on the same page” Lennox responded. Louis bobbed his head slowly, adding. “Who wants to have fun playing with our new mate?” Levi and Lennox nodded in affirmation and Louis smirked. “Let’s get started with our new mate and since today is her birthday, let us make this day the best day of her life” Levi added. “It is surely going to be the best day of her life. We are the Alpha Devils, the only thing that we know how to do is have fun and we will be having a lot of fun with our mate, our Renee.”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
Renee Those bastards, after seeing that I was drowning, jumped into the water and pulled me out of the water and here I was, standing outside the Limousine that was supposed to take Nerissa and me to school from now on. Yesterday night, Alpha and Luna were angry with the fact that my name appeared in the ballot box. They hurled insults at me for trying to play the victim and that was why I jumped into the water. They hated that I had to attend the same school as Nerissa’s but because they wanted to save face before the public, they didn’t allow me to reject the offer and after pondering deeply on it, they gave me a school uniform and I had to go to school with Nerissa every day. When Nerissa’s scent wafted through my nostrils, I was soon jolted out of my thoughts and she heaved an exasperated sigh, bumping shoulders with me intentionally. Lowering my head before her even though it felt like I could break her into pieces for what she did with Kade. “Nerissa goo
Lennox’s P.O.V I slipped my hands down my pocket, tilting my head to the left while fixing my gaze on the guy who took Renee out of the building. Anger coursed through me in that moment and the only thing that I wanted to do was crush his audacity and his high self esteem. How dare he talk to us like that and most importantly, who gave him the rights to save Renee? If Renee would be saved and condemned was totally left to us. I hated to admit it but I hated the way he stared at her with so much passion in his eyes. Who was he? Louis leaned by his side. “Who is that rascal that dared to save our Mate?” Levi added. “He also talked to us like that……” Levi laughed. It was a thing that he always did whenever he was angry and clenching his fist, he crushed the pencil that he gripped. “I want to crush those wings” A smile crept at the corner of my lips at that moment, my fingers squeezing into folds while Louis commanded a student to come. “Who is that guy th
Renee’s P.O.V Returning to classes with him, my mind was filled with different thoughts and it was safe to say that I was shameless! I mean after everything that he did, with the way he alongside Louis and Levi bullied me by pouring paint on me, Lennox’s words did something to me that I couldn't decipher. His dirty words made my panties wet and it made me wonder, why my body reacted in that manner. Could it be the famous mating bond that everyone always talked about? Plus he was acting nice to me, making sure that I ate to my fill even though he talked dirty all through, talking about how beautiful my lips would look wrapped around his dick cap. I had never seen one before except for the descriptions I had heard when listening to audiobooks. Somehow, Lennox had gotten rid of Kade’s clothes, getting me a new uniform and new shoes and even though I didn't want to accept it, he forced it on me. All I needed was a way to get kicked out of th
Renee’s P.O.V After the humiliation that I had received on my first day in school, the fear of the same thing happening again overwhelmed me and because of that, I pretended to be sick, not going to school for two days. Somehow, the head servant managed to decipher that my act of being sick turned out to be a pretense so she reported me to the Alpha and Luna who forced me back to school. Now, I was back in this hellhole called Elite Arts High School. The mere thought of encountering the triplets again sent a wave of dizziness washing over me, accompanied by a sudden, sharp pain piercing through my head. I muttered under my breath, "Not again!" In just two days of not coming to school, a lot has happened. I had always known that Kade getting himself involved with me before the triplets was surely going to get him into trouble and I wasn't wrong about that. Kade had filed a petition against the triplets for bullying him to the extent that he was hospitalized for a day.
Lennox Renee’s scent lingered in my nose, her words muffled against my palm as she said. “What are you doing here, Lennox?” A soft sly grin crept onto my face, my fingers trailing her neck until they wrapped around her neck. My breath fanned against her ear and I drawled. “Renee…….” “First of all, what punishment do you think that you deserve for this insolent behavior? I have told you already that you can’t escape all the things that I would do to you, mate” The tears that tracked down her face fell on my fingers and I soon removed my fingers wrapped around her neck, stepping backward while leaning against the wall with my hands crossed over my chest. She muttered. “I don’t deserve any punishment. I only did the right thing……” I scoffed. “That would be for me to decide, Renee. If you did the right or the wrong thing….I would be the judge of that or let us do this instead, let us play a game” Her lips wobbled as she said. “A .….game? What game?” “I don’t want to be
Renee’s P.O.V That devil, Lennox, or whatever he was called. I am going to kill him with my bare hands and that was a promise but at the same time, did I have the willpower to do something like that? Because knowing myself, I was just going to crumble before him and I hated myself for that. Then Nerissa……..I didn’t know what to do concerning her. She left me there writhing in pain but thanks to my fast healing capabilities, the immense pain that I had felt waned. “Only if my inner wolf has manifested, then it would have been easier to crush all of them underneath my feet,” I muttered to myself, clenching my fist before sucking in a deep breath. With the way things were going, if I didn’t leave this school as fast as possible, then more woes would befall me. But, where was I going to run to? Memories of what happened between us flashed through my head and a groan escaped my lips. “Wouldn’t you be going in, Renee?” I heard Miss Kimberly say while my voice was bar
Levi Renee's jaw dropped and a smile crept at the corner of my lips watching as she swung her cane. “I……I….don’t want to be…..I don’t want to be here. You said that I was going to be expelled and…” She choked a sob. Miss Smith palmed her forehead. “News flash Renee, you don’t have to worry about that anymore. Our benevolent Levi decided to pay for the damages” “I don’t want him to pay. I never asked him to” I stood up from where I was, walking towards her while grabbing the stick from her. “I insist!” “Plus, if you get expelled, you will pay for the damages on your own” I leaned forward, talking in a conspiratorial whisper. “Knowing the relationship between you and the rulers of your pack, I am sure that they would do everything to get the money from you” Her shoulders slumped in defeat when I grabbed her wrist and took her to the rooftop. She kept fiddling with her fingers and with every step that she took, she retracted her step backwards. “What are we doing here?
Lennox’s P.O.V I tossed the baseball bat to the ground, my eyes darting to Renee, who stared at the lifeless body of the rogue in horror. Dark blood pulled beneath the Rogue’s body. He had been beaten to death by us. No one touches our mate and goes Scot-free. I took a long stride towards Renee, who remained frozen in fear, her lips wobbling as she struggled to tear her gaze off the grotesque sight of the body. As soon as I appeared before her, she gulped, taking in a shaky breath as she took a step back—Only for Levi to push her forward. Her breathing hitched as soon as her hands rested gently on my chest. She swallowed, her voice barely above a whisper as she took a step back. “You killed the…” Before she could complete her words, I gripped her by the jaw, forcing her to stare up at me as her eyes met mine. She whimpered softly and at that moment, a devious smile crept at the corners of my mouth. “What did you expect us to do to him? Give him a pat on the head for sl
Louis’s P.O.V Nothing Renee did escaped my siblings and I’s notice. We saw the way she kept up with her squeaky little games. Most importantly, we knew about her plans to get a part-time job— The boys assigned to follow her were the ones who had always provided us with information about the places she frequented. She frequented Restaurants, Cafés, and worse, casinos. The desperation was real! I leaned down slightly, my lips brushing through the side of her neck as I nibbled on the side softly. “Did you have a lot of fun, hiding, little mouse?” She stiffened in my arms and at that moment, the door that she had closed was kicked open and the man who was reported to have slapped her on the ass was tossed to the ground. Lennox had blood trailing underneath his nostrils and Levi’s hair was tousled, but what was more noticeable was the groaning Rogue whose face was covered in blood. He tried to run for safety, but Levi stepped on his foot with so much pressure that cause
Renee’s P.O.V Since that humiliating ritual that Nerissa made me go through, I sat on the rooftop for hours because of the anger that made my blood boil. I missed classes and practicals but no matter how much I tried to cry, the tears never came. Instead, immense pain kept making my heart twist in my chest. I would never forgive Nerissa for what she had done and at the same time, how could she be among the top three? That girl didn't even complete the evaluation test before she was taken to the school clinic in an emergency. What was more absurd was the fact that no one was asking questions as to how Nerissa emerged as the top three. Maybe it was because asking questions meant going against one of the major pioneers of the school and one thing most packs wouldn't want to do is cross with Alpha Dominic. So everyone accepted the shit that was being thrown at their faces even though it made no sense to them. My chest heaved up and down and all of a sudden, my heart drift
Nerissa’s P.O.V Applause echoed through the entire assembly hall and a smile spread through my face as I exchanged handshakes with the principal. Despite the enjoyment that swirled within me and the eyes that were all over me, I could feel these distinct eyes— Eyes whose burning gaze singed through my cheeks. I didn't need to panic before knowing who stared at me with so much venom. I tilted my head in the direction where I felt that feeling from and a smug smile slowly spread through my face as my eyes locked onto hers. The way her eyes blazed with fury intensified my excitement and the only thing that I wanted to do was humiliate her further. I shifted my gaze away from Renee, darting my eyes to the principal with a big smile on my face. “Thank you, ma’am. However, I have a request to make with you. Can you please let someone give me the medal for coming first, it would mean a lot to her” My voice was barely above a whisper. The principal nodded. “Of course, who do y
Renee With every step that I took into the school, a cold shiver ran down my spine. The fact that he didn’t say anything meant something. We were not even supposed to cross paths and to think that he left without causing a scene made fear gnaw at my insides. Something was going to happen, and I could feel it deep within me. All of a sudden, I was jolted out of my thoughts because of the murmurs and small talk in the background that soon filtered down my ears. Everyone seemed to be talking about me. “I heard rumors that she can now see?” “I doubt that is true” “She looks different a lot” I stopped dead in my tracks and at that moment, confusion swirled in my mind. How could the rumors have spread fast? Who told them? Could it be Landon? Landon wasn’t the nosy type, so why would he spread such a thing? At that moment, the thoughts that plagued my mind soon vanished when my eyes landed on the sculptures around the school grounds. A hitching gasp escaped me and I
Renee’s P.O.V My life, my soul, and my body were controlled by them, but not my mind. I had hardened my heart and nothing could ever stop me from doing what I had set my mind to doing. Not even Aria. Now that I had regained my eyesight, this was going to be the greatest mistake of their lives. The consequences of my actions would be severe—I knew that. But they have played this game for so long, and it was just right that I took back control of my life and did the things I wanted. Firstly, I had secretly applied for different part-time jobs and my only hope was that they would give me feedback. Something positive at least. Then, I would save a lot of money and go to a place where no one was ever going to find me. Just the thought of freedom caused this adrenaline rush to surge through me, and it made my heart pound against my chest in excitement. As if it were never there in the first place, the excitement inside of me vanished when Lennox’s threat flashed through my
Renee’s P.O.V I had regained consciousness, only to remain in the bathroom, staring at my reflection in the mirror while admiring myself. Beautiful dark hair, pretty eyes, and a perfect smile—I was in love with myself. I had spent the rest of the hours taking numerous pictures in a bid to forget about the triplets because my mind wouldn’t stop wanting to think about how handsome they were. I opened a social media account, watching thirst traps, and seeing beautiful hot models on the internet and the only thing I wanted at that moment was to take pictures like them. Regaining my eyesight, I wanted to try out so many things like learning how to swim, how to cook, and going on a solo date on my own. I wanted to travel around the world on my own, try out different cuisines, and catch up on the things I have missed because of my blindness. This was perfect. My mind drifted back to the triplets and my heart turned cold in my chest. It was safe to say that I had fallen in l
Renee’s P.O.V A slight groan escaped me and at that moment, a lot of memories rushed inside my head—All my adventures with the triplets, my finding out about the death of my mum, everything that happened in Elite Arts High School, and most importantly the fact that Levi had abandoned me. I felt a dull ache throbbing behind my eyes and when I attempted to lift my hands, that was when it dawned on me that I couldn't. I was too weak to even move my body. Where was I? The faint smell of antiseptic and a mix of lavender wafted through my nostrils. Why did it smell like a hospital? Did anything happen… All of a sudden, the fog that clouded the most important aspect of my memories suddenly cleared and at that moment, the reality hit me that I had undergone the surgery to correct my eye blindness. According to the optometrist during the diagnosis and checkups, he claimed that I had corneal damage that was most likely caused by an accident— A car crash. I counted his word
Renee’s P.O.V As soon as I heard her utter those words, I froze and dread washed over me because what did she mean by she could smell me? All I knew was that an awkward laughter followed and the next sound that followed was that of the door being slammed shut and at that moment, fear set in on me. Was it me or did it seem like Levi had left? Like he had abandoned me here and… My pulse quickened, and a cold sweat broke from my forehead as I resorted to gnawing on my fingers because the last thing that I wanted to believe was that Levi left Nerissa’s room. If he left, then it meant that he had left the pack house and I was now alone to suffer the consequences of my actions. And to worsen things, my phone wasn't with me. I mean, why did he have to start a fight with Landon, for crying out loud? I swallowed the huge lump that formed in my throat, trembling in Nerissa’s closet in fear. I still found it difficult to believe that Levi would abandon me, despite knowing that
