Mia"Come here." He said, pulling me close to him as he noticed that I was shaking, though slightly.I didn't argue with him and went to him compliantly. He was shocked as I rested my head on his shoulder and I could feel it when his breath hitched in his throat and when he finally released it. I was surprised that I allowed such close-skin contact with him. I must have been shaken more than I realized.Of course, I was shaken. It wasn't every day someone met a person who was ready to kill them because he wanted to rob them.I let out a shudder, remembering that u could have died this night if Quinn hadn't been there to save. It was funny in an odd sort of way that I had been worried about the dark wizard and expecting him to be the one to kill me that I hadn't thought of the danger that the humans around me could also pose.I was glad Quinn had been around regardless, even if he had been lurking around to save me from the dark wizard. "Drink up your tea so you can go to bed."I nodd
MiaWhat have I done? I groaned out a curse as I sat up in bed, my eyes widening in alarm as I noticed that I was naked.I felt sore underneath and didn't need to touch myself to know that I was dripping wet. Slowly, the events of the previous night came to my mind and I cringed, overwhelmed with the need to run inside a closet and hide my face from the world.What have I done? I doubted that I was ever going to stop asking myself that question. I had lost my shame and dignity for some moments of pleasure.What was Quinn going to think of me now?There was no pretense again for me. There was nothing I was going to say that he would believe me. I had shown him that I wanted him and he was going to chase after me like a bloodhound till I wholly surrendered to him.What was I saying? Being with one was agreeing to be with the three of them.Quinn was going to keep coming around till I surrendered and agreed to be a mate to all of them. I remembered how Jack had reacted when he found ou
MiaSomething funny and embarrassing happened to me at work. I couldn't believe it and my ego was crushed that day. On a normal day, I would have felt relieved but this time, I didn't feel that way. I felt like I had dung smeared on me and I was irritating to others.I felt irritable afterwards and my mood was ruined for a whole week.Sean announced that the company was having her annual get-together abs and the concept of the year's own was to be there with a colleague and not be alone so it would like there is good relationship among the company.He had explained that even if we were new employees, just as I was, it wasn't that bad that someone wouldn't have a friend among the employees.The chairman's directive was for each employee to come with a colleague and it could be anyone but Sean decided to turn everything around and make it more interesting because he thought it would be that way.He had gone through the company database and discovered that there was an evenly distributed
Quinn"Why is she not coming home this week again?"I sighed as I laid down on the bench, closing my eyes against the sun. I was tired of the question. I had heard it a lot over the past few weeks from my brothers that I was afraid anytime they opened their mouths, praying that wasn't what they wanted to talk about.Hardly any day passed that they didn't ask me why Mia didn't come home or if I knew anything. Of course, I denied everything. I was glad that she wasn't home. I had misbehaved and I wanted to keep that secret hidden for as long as I could.I had told my brothers not to bother with watching her as I would take all the turns doing so because I didn't want them to know what I had done.I had come to the garden to avoid them and yet they had followed me, asking me if I knew why Mia didn't come home even though I had told them countless times that I had no idea."I don't know." I replied for the umpteenth time, sighing as I turned on the bench."You should know." Jack grumbled.
Mia"Make sure you see me immediately after your meal."I frowned as I heard those words. I already knew Albert too much to know that those words didn't mean something good. A row was about to go down between Quinn and his father and I was curious to know what it was.I looked at his brothers and they didn't seem bothered as if they already knew what it was about and didn't want to get caught in the crossfire. I started to rush my food just as I noticed that Quinn was doing the same. I didn't want to miss out on the fun. He didn't seem eager to leave the table even though he was rushing his meal so he could leave early and I knew at that time that it was a serious case. That made me eager to find out what it was. I couldn't help wondering if something had been happening to Quinn while I was busy running from home.I gasped at the thought that crept into my head as I remembered what Albert had told me. I hoped that it wasn't time to choose an alpha and Quinn would have to fight for hi
MiaI was ashamed of myself. What was I going to do? How was I going to face the brothers or their father? It was at this moment that I was glad that my mum wasn't a werewolf with weird nose that could sniff out what someone had done in secret.I couldn't imagine how I would feel if she also knew by looking at me that I had slept with Quinn. I wouldn't have been able to deal with the look in her eyes. I would have asked that the ground opened up and swallowed me. I would have cried and begged till it did.I could barely sleep that night, as expected. I tossed about till it was daybreak. When it was dawn, I was about to go out for breakfast when I saw how I looked. I gasped at my reflection in the mirror. I couldn't go out like that. I looked like I had gone to a war front and fought a whole lot of battles overnight. There was no how I was going to avoid answering questions if I stepped out looking like that.I brushed my teeth, cleaned up and dressed in a casual comfy dress. I didn't
MiaI was anxious all through the night, worried that Jack was going to come back home even though I had locked the door.I groaned. This was my second night at home and I couldn't sleep tonight as well. I shouldn't have come home, I regretted for the thousandth time. I should have tortured myself with thinking of the party that I didn't get to go to instead of this torture that I was enduring at home. I should have gone alone to the party. It wasn't a must that I went there with a date. I had thought that I would be ashamed going there without a date and being the only one without one but the shame I would have felt was nothing compared to what I was dealing with now.My head banged and I wished that I could get myself some drugs but I couldn't, reminding myself that I hadn't eaten. I glanced at the food lying on the stool and looked away. I couldn't bring myself to eat the food that Jack had brought in no matter how hungry I was. Moreover, the food would already be cold and I didn
MiaI gasped as I jumped off the bed the next morning, cursing as I glanced at the alarm clock beside my bed.Why hadn't I heard it ring? I had slept off through my alarm and was going to pay for it pretty soon. I didn't think I had ever been this late to work. I rushed to the bathroom, hoping to be done as fast as I could.I was out in thirty minutes and flagged down a cab. On a normal morning, I would have walked to the office but that wasn't going to work this time.All eyes were on me as I walked into the office and I cringed, feeling a sense of deja Vu. That reminded me too much of when the boys and their father wouldn't stop staring at me. I wanted to tell them to stop staring at me. I ignored the looks just as I had done back at home and moved to my desk. I knew that they were staring at me only because I was late and that wouldn't be for forever. That was only going to last for today as I didn't intend to get late tomorrow. I was glad that they didn't have supernatural nostr
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
