Lennox’s P.O.V With a clenched jaw, I slipped my hands down my pocket, leaning against the school’s door frame while fixing my gaze intently on the cars that pulled up to drop the students. A storm brewed deep within me. I couldn’t just wait to set eyes on that bastard called Landon. I was going to find him and teach him a lesson that he would never forget for the rest of his life. As unease surged at the depth of my stomach, panic slowly bled through my veins as my jaw tightened and the air grew cold around me. All the students who walked past me, ducked their heads, quickening their pace while I fixed my gaze intently on the driveway. At that moment, the fear that Landon absconded with Renee crept in on me. At the same time, why? To worsen it, Renee spent the night with that sexual offender. Just as I was about to lose hope, a BMW drove in, stopping right in front of the building. Relief flooded through me when Landon came out of the car wearing sunglasses, his
Renee’s P.O.V I was still traumatized and destabilized by everything that happened. All through the morning classes, I didn't stand up from my seat and sat rooted in the same spot for hours. The fear that everything that happened last night could happen again sent cold shivers down my spine. On the other hand, ever since my encounter with Lennox this morning, he hasn't been in class nor were his brothers in class. Maybe Levi and Louis skipped classes. At that moment, my mind drifted back to my conversation with Landon concerning how he told me that the triplets didn't care that I was missing. Wasn't it weird that the same Lennox who didn't care seemed like he was really worried about me? It felt more like he was relieved that I was finally here. What was I even saying? It wasn't like any of the triplets cared. The only reason they were around me was because of the power that they wielded over me. The power to torment, crush, and destroy. Squirming in my seat, I
Levi’s P.O.V These weren't the moments where every little thing my brothers and I did commanded attention. Yet, despite our distress as we rushed into the school building, everyone gaped at us in awe and silence enveloped the whole place. With Louis by my side, we climbed up the stairs and drifted down the hallway. Louis and I had been so worried about that pervert doing something to her but hearing that she was fine made us relieved and the only thing we wanted to do now was bask in our mate’s scent and find a way to ensure that Landon gets kicked out of the school. He would be punished for everything that he had done. I couldn't speak for my brothers but I would make sure of it. All of a sudden, my heart raced when I caught sight of Renee coming towards our direction, and crazy thoughts of what she would have gone through in the basement coursed through my mind. My anger surged with each step, the intensity of my hatred for Nerissa growing like a storm ready to brea
Renee’s P.O.V Gripping my white cane with my other hand, my heart raced hard in my chest, my fingers lingering on my lips as the memories of Levi kissing me before his dad flashed through my mind. The fact that he did that before his dad and Nerissa’s parents was kind of hot. I hated that I loved what he did. I should have pushed him away when I had the chance. I could still feel the warmth of his breath against my mouth, the eyes that were fixated on me as he kissed me. To think that he decided to do that when Nerissa was… At that moment, a realization soon hit me that Nerissa was indeed missing. If this wasn’t Karma then I needed to know what it was. Biting my lower lips while adjusting my sunglasses as I strolled down the hallway, I muttered to myself when confusion swirled through my mind. “But wait for a second, why does something seem off about Nerissa’s…” Before I could complete my words, a hand wrapped around my arm pulling me closer in a way tha
Nerissa’s P.O.V It turned out that the dumb girl and former sister of mine called Renee pleaded with the triplets on my behalf. The sound of their grumbling as they shot death stares at me while pushing me out of the basement was a memory that lingered in my head. They seemed displeased to do it and they planned to make me suffer but thanks to Landon who helped me by convincing Renee to plead with the triplets. I wasn't allowed to even say where I had been when my parents questioned me. If I did, the triplets threatened to blackmail me with how I had been cheating my way through school. I just hated my life and most importantly, I loathed Renee for everything that I had been through! Landon soon jolted me out of my thoughts as he scrolled through his phone tablet while he glanced up at me. “Don't do anything like harming Renee throughout our school trip…” I stared at him confusedly, the fact that he was trying to advise me triggered all the senses in my head. He shoul
Louis’s P.O.V I stared blankly at the television, the screen dark and lifeless while a storm of fury brewed deep within me. I couldn’t just understand why Renee had to be so stubborn! We had clearly warned her about staying away from Landon but she turned a deaf ear and dared to plead with us concerning releasing Nerissa from the basement. She was just so difficult to help and she needed to be taught a lesson—Something that would make her listen to us. Lennox who strolled around the hotel suite broke my train of thought, hurling a pillow at me before he went to the kitchen island. “What was that for?” I raised a brow, my gaze fixated on him while he turned, grabbing a can of beer from the fridge. He clicked it open and took a sip before he slammed it back on the kitchen counter. “I fucking hate this beer” He sucked between his teeth, cussing at the same time. I ran my hands through my hair frustratedly. “Why did you throw a pillow at me?” “Because I have been try
Renee’s P.O.V I should have seen it coming from the very beginning—it was yet another trap laid by the Alpha Devils. I should have known that their icy behavior towards me meant something deadly. They had surely deciphered that I had spoken to Landon, and he was the one who made me plead on Nerissa’s behalf and here I was left to suffer the consequences of my actions. Jolts of electricity littered my body as my fingers flew to my neck instinctively while I tried to loosen whatever these devils tightened around my neck. My breathing hitched as their laughter echoed down my ears while tears brimmed in my eyes. All of a sudden, the grip on my neck suddenly tightened, and a gasp escaped my mouth as I clawed at it. A searing pain spread across my neck, tears brimming in my eyes, and at the same time, a moan escaped my mouth when Levi reached behind me, rubbing his thumb over my clit. My thigh clenched, my eyes squeezing shut as he whispered in my ears. “How many times are
Louis’s P.O.V The rest of the evening stretched out with my brothers and I preparing a bubble bath for her, rereading the terms and conditions of our contract to her while reiterating that we didn't want to see her with Landon. She had bobbed her head, promising not to ever have anything to do with Landon but the more I stared at her, the more I couldn't get rid of this nudging feeling that she would surely go against our words. It seemed more like she always developed this extraordinary confidence whenever she was with him. Thankfully, the job of my brothers and I was to break that confidence and save her from Landon! Renee seemed to have regained her strength as she sat on the couch with her legs curled by the side while staring into space. She was wearing my T-shirt and I hated to admit it but fuck! She was sexy. I roused up from where I sat, sitting next to her while the voices of Lennox and Levi bickering in the kitchen made me cuss underneath my breat
Lennox’s P.O.V **Events Day** If there was one thing that I hated my whole life, it was someone not keeping up with time because why in the world did Erin tell me Renee would be here in the next twenty minutes? Thirty minutes had passed, and she wasn’t here yet. What in the world was going on? A groan rumbled from my throat, glancing at the wristwatch before darting my eyes over to Louis who leaned against the car, his brows tugging together in a frown as he glanced back and forth between the entrance and the phone in his grasp. I knew that he was also frustrated because why couldn’t she keep to the damned time? Levi came down the small steps, draped in a tailored forest green suit that seemed to fit him better than it should. Louis and I decided to wear the same brand of suit, but Levi could be too much sometimes because there were times when he just wanted to stand out. He held a glass of wine, stopping mid-away on the step while a smile spread across his face as h
Renee’s P.O.V Another box scattered to the ground, causing my heart to lurch forward as panic bled through my veins and anxiety crept at the back of my neck. I couldn’t have misplaced the diamond brace… I shook my head, sweeping my hands over the floor in search of it and the more I failed to find it, the more dread settled over my shoulders. A gasp escaped me as I sat on the bare floor, gnawing on my fingers while beads of sweat appeared on my forehead. No! Something weird was happening now and why in the world did I have to be the only one to deal with horrible things all the time? It was just barely two days ago since I recovered and now I was back in the room that I shared with Erin—Only to discover that the diamond bracelet that the triplets had given to me had vanished. It wasn’t even supposed to go missing because I was sure about the box where it was kept. I had placed it carefully, double-checking almost all the time and Erin wasn’t even there when I had kept it so
NerissaFor three days, the helicopter had paraded the forest, searching for Landon and me, but the damned triplets made it hard for us to be found because when they threw our body into that pit, not only did they torture us with wolfsbane, those bastards created a very strong barrier over the deep pit. Landon and I screamed until we lost our voices. We even noticed when the search team was next to the pit, but they could see us and hear our desperate cry for help. And as if that weren’t worse, Lennox, Landon, and Louis helped the search team, constantly crouching over the pit with an evil smile creeping at the corners of their mouth.Louis had taken it a step further, his voice low and extremely eerie as his eyes locked onto mine in the pit. A sinister smile crossed his face and he tilted his head to the side. “What do you think?” He said, his tone almost playful. “Should we bury them alive?” He chuckled, his fingers fluttering to his lips like he was stifling his laughter. Chills
Renee’s P.O.VI jolted awake, my chest heaving and my breath coming in shallow gasps as the memories refused to loosen their grip on me and like that, they flooded through my mind. Me falling into a pit. The mimicry of voices and the sound of growls and snarls echoed through my ears. There was a clash when I was in the pit and because of the voices that were being mimicked, I didn’t even know what to think anymore because I could have sworn that I heard Landon and Nerissa’s voices. Who was the person who could have imitated other’s voices perfectly and most importantly, where was I?Before panic could bleed through my veins, the feeling of a hand on mine caused this surge of calmness within me and at that moment, my anxiety subsided. Louis’s voice filled my ears and slowly, relief flooded through me because it was better to be stuck with them than being in that pit that made me think that no one was ever going to find me. “You are awake” His fingers brushed through the back of my p
Levi’s P.O.V Standing amidst my brothers, a surge of power coursed inside of me and the only sound that could be heard was that of the crow cawing in the distance and most importantly the sound of the rustling leaves that crunched underneath my brother, and I’s clawed feet at the same time. Thankfully, we were able to find Renee by following her shoe print and her scream for help. Landon stood on his hinges, twisting his neck while Nerissa stood next to him as a growl escaped her. Two things were going to happen tonight. It was either they left this place with broken bones or they ended up dead. One of these just had to happen tonight. Renee screamed out loud again in a desperate plea. “Please help me, somebody, please help me” Anger coursed through me at that moment and before I could even create a plan to take down Nerissa and Landon through the mind-link, Louis charged at Landon, the ground shaking underneath our clawed feet. In the next second Louis’s massive f
NerissaI loved Renee, and why did I love her? Because she was so naive. How could she have been foolish enough to take even a single step in that direction?After tormenting her, I fell on my knees, my hands clutching my stomach while laughing out my heart as she remained in the deep pit, whimpering and trembling in fear. Laughing uncontrollably as she kept screaming for help, the smile on my face soon died and anger coursed through my veins. I meant it when I mentioned that I was going to get back at her for everything that she had done to me. This was just the tip of the iceberg. I hadn’t even begun with her yet. By the time I was finished, she’d reject the Alpha Devils as her mates and leave the school—exactly as I planned.“Somebody, please save me” She screamed from the pit and in a fit of rage, I snarled at her. “You had better shut that mouth of yours because no one will be coming to save you”Suddenly, she froze, and her lips wobbled in shock. “Nerissa?”A smile crept at th
Renee’s P.O.VI clung tightly to the arm of the boy who came to fetch me. He told me that the Alpha Devils asked him to find me since they had found the treasure that was in the heart of the forest. At that moment, my mind couldn’t help but keep reeling from the different thoughts that popped up in my mind. Because first, something wasn’t adding up. How were they able to find the treasure easily and most importantly, how did they realize that I wasn’t with the walkie-talkie anymore? Could my blindness be the reason it took me longer to fit the puzzle pieces together? Was that the reason the triplets were able to find it before me? Because my blindness had never been a reason for me not to achieve my goal, plus it wasn’t too long since we started the games, so I found it weird that they were capable of finding it easily. I cleared my throat, tugging at him gently. “Umm…can we return to the field? I mean where we left off just now. I feel uneasy without taking my cane…” I bit on my
Renee *Games Day*The sharp powerful notes of trumpets blowing in the forest, cut through my thoughts like a honed knife as my heart almost leaped into my throat in fear. However, Lennox’s steadying hand as his fingers drew imaginary circles on the back of my palm, calmed me down. It was the games day and I was starting to get frustrated because of the endless rearrangement of sub-groups. And the craziest thing was that even after the rearrangement, it seemed like I was fated for drama throughout this week because how in the world did Nerissa fall into this subgroup again?It was either the guides were doing this intentionally or the moon goddess was having fun playing with my fate today. As if that wasn’t enough, the triplets and Landon were also in this subgroup, and that sums up my daily dose of chaos. There was this nudging thought at the back of my mind that they would clash. Either the triplets start a fight with Landon or Nerissa tries to pick on me but I doubt she would do
Renee Cold shivers thrilled down my spine, sitting across from Levi with my hands delicately folded on the table. Biting my lower lips, my mind couldn't stop revisiting the intense moment between the triplets and me while we were still in the cabin. Just the sheer thought of it made heat pool between my legs and my cheeks flush red. At the same time, the small smile that played on my lips fell when my mind drifted back to what had happened at the Museum. The triplets had seen something. If they didn't see something, then they wouldn't have addressed me as a liar. What could they have seen to wreak that much havoc in the museum?What in the world did Landon send to spark that reaction from them?Levi’s words broke my train of thought. “You can remove your sunglasses now. The lighting in the restaurant has been adjusted”Levi had rented out the whole restaurant because he wanted me to be comfortable and because of the blinding, harsh light that always caused immense pain for my eyes.
