Mia"We actually made some background checks on you, Mia." John revealed.What? I turned in my seat to stare at him. What was he saying? Was he serious? He nodded, laughing at the look on my face."We knew you weren't going to say anything about your job if we asked. That was just us trying to confirm what we already knew.""Did you make a bet on that?" I snorted at him, facing forward. I glanced at Quinn and scowled. He had his eyes on the road as if he wasn't concerned with the conversation going on in the car but he had an amused smirk on his lips. It would be hard for me not to notice that. He was in with his brothers and I scowled harder as I folded my hands on my chest and stared at the road ahead, trying to calculate how far we were to the city.I was already tired of them and I made sure that they knew it.John laughed, his body betraying his amusement as if he knew that I was acting out and throwing tantrums. "What is the point of placing a bet when we all knew what you woul
JohnI loved how Quinn had used his style to invite Mia to a party. I hadn't been expecting that. That was so smooth and I chuckled to myself. Of course, what had I been expecting? That was Quinn. He was as smooth as a rock.We got to the car, ignoring the ladies on the way who cast glances at us. Some were even bold enough to throw kisses at us. We ignored them all. We knew how these things work. If we showed them that we weren't interested at all in ladies, they would give up soon and not torment Mia. If we acted like we were interested in them and gave them up, they would all fly around Mia like vultures, trying to use her to get to us and there was only one outcome for that.Mia wouldn't tell us of their affections on their behalf. She would only get mad and hate us - and that is what we didn't need at the moment.We knew she didn't like us but she didn't have to hate us more than she already did.Three of the ladies crowded out there decided to be bold and walked up to us. I coul
MiaI was nervous, biting my lips as I stood before the mirror. I shouldn't have agreed to the party. I shouldn't have let them persuade me. Well, technically, they didn't persuade me. I was the one who had fallen for the hopeful expressions on their faces. I was beginning to regret accepting to go to the party. What was I thinking? I should have said no to them, without bothering about anything else. I was getting nice and I wondered if I should be worried about that.I didn't want to be nice to the boys but knowing that they had helped twice within two days that they came back from their mission was making that impossible.They had saved my life when the crazy sorceress was trying to kill me and also driven me to school when they didn't have to.I didn't want to say it was from the goodness of their hearts that they had done it but I was grateful for their good deeds regardless.Their appearance had done a lot for me, helped me in so many ways that I wouldn't have experienced if it
JackI could smell the distrust on her as I drove her back home. I knew how much she hated being drunk and she would be mortified that others saw her out of control. Mia was a sucker for control. I didn't want her to regret going out with us because we were going to invite her again to another party soon.We weren't going to stop inviting her to party till she got comfortable with us. That wasn't going to happen if she got embarrassed for being drunk and hated herself for going out with us.I drove her home instead of her company apartment. I got her to her bedroom without letting our parents see us. I didn't want to explain why she was home when they weren't expecting her. I didn't think that she wanted to explain that as well.I got her to her bedroom and smiled as I glanced at her. "I will be back soon so do whatever you want to do before then."She arched her eyebrows at me in her normal obtuse manner. "Whatever I want to do like what?"I shrugged. "Anything you want to do. Maybe
MiaIt was our parents' wedding. Finally, they had tied the knot and we were officially a family. I was their sister on paper. I was family and the triplets were determined to make me think of them as that.It was a small ceremony filled with a few trusted people from both ends. Some of my mother's friends were invited and I wondered if Albert's guests were humans or werewolves. I rubbed at my temples, eager to get a drink but I wasn't going to do that. It was my mother's day and I wasn't going to make a fool of myself and embarrass her.What was my business with wondering if his guests were werewolves or not? As far as I was concerned, they weren't going to harm me. The werewolves I knew and had been living with for months hadn't hurt me so I didn't think I have reason to worry about the new werewolves. They weren't going to hurt me if they were anything like Albert. I knew he was a responsible person and wouldn't have moved with irresponsible people, human or werewolf. He wouldn't
MiaThe wedding was over. The newly married couple were on their honeymoon and everyone was back to their lives. I was back at work but the triplets weren't back at work yet.It seemed like they were still on a break from the mission that they had been on. It was almost two weeks and they weren't back yet. They had to have been on one dangerous mission for them to be allowed to not report to work and all was well.I shook my head. I wasn't going to think of that. The thought always made me feel bad and I was too busy at the moment to wallow in guilt. I missed my mum and wondered when she was going to be back. Albert hadn't told us where he was taking her. He had said that it was a surprise and they would only be back when they were done with all the treats that he wanted to give to her.I missed her and wanted to hear her voice but I couldn't call her. I didn't even know where she was at the moment and even if I knew, I felt bad about disturbing a couple on their honeymoon.My phone
MiaI was nervous once again before the mirror but my emotions weren't as nerve-racking as they were when I was going out to that party the triplets had invited me to. Sasha wasn't surprised at my confusion any longer. She had seemed to get used to it. After all, she had watched me go on dates with a couple of men since we became friends and never had there been a day that I was comfortable with dressing up. She leaned back on her bed, watching me as I stood there confused on what to wear. She seemed to have given up on me. She wasn't totally looking at me or trying to help me out with my troubles. She sat, pressing her fingers on her phone as she gave me side looks occasionally just to tell me that she was with me.I held up a gown to her. "The blue gown or the green one?" "That is your decision to make." She shrugged. I growled at her. "You can be mean at times." I said to her in a teasing voice."Your date is here." She announced suddenly.I went into panic mode. That couldn't
QuinnI had never felt this much envious of anyone in my life. I was angry, jealous and feeling all shades of emotions that I had always considered distasteful. I was worked up beyond emotions and I didn't like it.As a werewolf who had grown up among humans, I had a fair share of self-esteem and believed that I was better than them. I had everything I wanted and didn't believe that there was ever going to be something that a human could have that I didn't have.I had the good looks, intelligence, money and anything else you might want to name but for the first time in my supernatural years of living, I felt like all those were not enough and was envious of a human.I didn't think that I was ever going to be jealous of a mere human but I did tonight and that was surprising to me. It was all because of Mia. I hissed at myself, scowling for losing control of my emotions. I was always in control, cold, unmovable but that didn't apply anywhere Mia was. She always made me lose my cool and
MiaFinally. It was done. I was mated to the boys. The mating ceremony was over. Some of the new wolves who didn't know were shocked that I was getting mated to the boys as they had assumed that I was getting mated to Quinn only but they had also moved on quickly and were happy that we were officially mated.Not all the wolves were around for my Luna ceremony and ritual or they would have found out about the intimacy between me and the boys.I was proud that mum was there to see mating ceremony and that there wasn't any knife cutting in this own. I didn't think mum was going to stand still if she saw that bloody crooked traditional knife cutting into my skin. I hoped that she wouldn't ever see the scars on my back. She had asked if I was keeping any more secrets from me but I didn't think I was going to tell her about the scars on my back. She was going to freak out if she saw them.She was just getting warmed up into the world of the werewolves and I couldn't show her the scars and r
MiaI had thought that mum would never want to see us again after last night's fiasco. I couldn't blame her. We hurt her and she had a right to her anger. I would have been mad as well if I was in her shoes. I was surprised when she came out and joined us for breakfast. That was good. That meant she was slowly letting go of her anger and would soon warm up to us. Maybe she would be forgiving us anytime soon. I had thought I shouldn't hold my breath on waiting for my mum to forgive us but now, it seemed possible.I was glad that I had told Albert to let us call her to join us for breakfast when he was about to ask the maid to send her food to the guest room that she had slept in. I knew Albert was affected that she had slept in another room. He looked worse, much worse than I had ever seen him. He seemed like he hadn't slept a wink last night with the absence of his wife in their shared bedroom. I didn't think I had ever seen them apart when they were in the same vicinity. He missed mu
VanessaI couldn't believe it. I still found it hard to believe that my own daughter could keep that much secret from me. I thought that we were close. I thought that we were as close as thieves. I thought that we didn't share any secrets. I thought that... Oh no, o stopped thinking as I didn't know what to think of anymore.She had to be kidding me. I felt like a fool, living in a house full of secrets and I was the only one who knew nothing about it. Asides the revelation that had happened in Mia's room after I found her kissing her brother, I had gotten more from her and I couldn't believe it.I still couldn't get the image of her kissing Quinn out of my head. I wondered what I would have done if I had found them in bed. Oh no! I couldn't bear to think of that. If she was dating the three of them, that meant that she was sleeping with the three of them.Oh my! How did that even work? I couldn't think of my daughter whoring herself out but with the way that they had explained it, th
MiaIt was revelation day. It was a hassle trying to calm mum down after witnessing me and Quinn kissing. She had glared at us with her eyes widespread and in disbelief."Can someone tell me what is going on here?" She yelled."Please calm down, mum." I pleaded with my face blushing red. I was embarrassed. I shouldn't have let this happen like this. I felt like she was disappointed in me and I hated myself. I wanted my mum to know about my relationship with the boys but it was not like this. I felt bad with the way she was looking at me and I wished that the ground would open up and swallow me whole."Calm down?" She squealed. "I just saw you kissing your brother while the others are looking at you. That was a passionate kiss for it to be seen as brotherly. You were sucking on each other's tongues and Jack was looking at you as if he couldn't wait to undress you. How can you tell me to calm down?"I sighed. I shouldn't have said that. "I'm sorry, mum. I will tell you everything that
Quinn"Mia! Wait! Stop!" I shouted at her to stop but she wouldn't. She kept on running, heading outside and I knew that I was messed up if she could get out of the gate. She would misunderstand the whole scenario and harden her heart before I could find my brothers, and go home to beg her.What was she doing here? Scratch that. That wasn't the right question to ask. She could be here for reasons of her own that she knew. The right question to ask was why she would think that I was cheating on her. I understood that the situation wasn't a nice one and it was possible that jealousy suddenly crept up on her but she should have held on to her logic. I was a wolf and never would I cheat on my mate. She was far from thinking right and that was what I had to help her do which was why I had to run to her before she could escape.I ran after her, watching as she took a bend. I sighed. If she could get out of that turn, she would be at the gate and that would be the end of my immediate apolog
MiaI flicked off the paper in front of me, tired of staring through fonts and ink. I had been busy. No, I had been trying to keep myself busy. Those were what I had been trying to do all day, all week since the boys had left.I missed them. I missed them with an ache that had my heart rolling and I couldn't imagine how they would feel as well since we were all mates and were apart. I was sure that it would be hard on them the same way it was hard on them. I wondered how they felt. We had calls everyday and almost every minute but that couldn't suffice for being together.I couldn't tell if they were in pain from our phone conversation as they were trying hard to hide it from me which was also what I was trying to do. I was also hiding it from them how much I missed them so they wouldn't be distracted and be able to concentrate where they were.I sighed. As if we could hide how we felt. Even if we didn't talk about it, we all knew that we were missing one another greatly. It was the m
QuinnI thought I had seen the last of Susan by telling her how I didn't miss her but I was wrong. She was more determined to have me in her space and because I mentioned my brothers the other time, she extended a bit of the gesture to them though it was all too obvious that what she was doing to them was fake and all she was concerned about was truly me.I sighed. I hated unnecessary attention of any kind and I had tried my best to avoid it by staying on my own in the barracks but now she was bringing me out in the open against my wish.I didn't like this and I was going to have to talk to her. What did she think that she was doing? That I was going to like it? She was being ridiculous if she didn't know it and she had to be dreaming if she thought that I was going to like her gesture.I remembered that I wanted to tell my brothers something and was about to speak up but the bell beat me to it."Oh! That is the bell for dinner. Shall we?" Jack said."No problem." John replied.We had
QuinnI missed Mia. I missed her with a pang. I didn't think that I could stay far away from her any longer. It was easier staying far from home when I wasn't a mated wolf but it wasn't the case now. My mind was conflicted and my heart longed to be home where she was.It was affecting my body as well and I had gone weaker and wasn't discharging my duties properly. I wasn't the only one as I had expected. I wasn't the only one mated to Mia and missing her. The three of us were weak and the major had noticed immediately the second day that we reported for duties. We got tired easily and were easily distracted.He had teased us about losing our abilities because we had been away from so long and had told us to get back in shape as soon as we could. I shook his head. If only that he knew. He didn't know that what we needed wasn't more trainings but being by the side of our mate.There was no way that Mia could be allowed to stay and live here with us as she wasn't an officer. We were the
MiaNo matter how much you anticipated or feared a day, it was going to come. I didn't even have the time to anticipate this time as it had come suddenly. I hadn't been expecting it. How could their major tell them to come back and give them only two days to do so? Who did that? He hadn't even given them time to prepare at all and had just wanted them to be back. Didn't he think that they were going to have to prepare? What if they were in the midst of something important when they had gotten his mail? Were they supposed to have dropped it all and reported to work?I believed that they were. They wouldn't have been military men if that wasn't the case. They weren't meant to complain when they got an order but followed without a complaining.I snorted at my thought. I knew that they were military men before I got involved with them.I was going to miss them. I stood by, watching them with my arms folded on my chest as I watched as they packed their luggage into the car.They turned whe
