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
