The loser of Hillymoor, known for being poor and miserable; Annalise Leen, daughter of a critically ill single mother, finds solace in the arms of the most popular Triplet Alphas of Hillymoor. Bullied and brutalized by her peers, she never thought she would be able to stand up for herself but in an extremely humiliating situation, the least expected trio showed up to claim her as theirs. Revelling in the sweetness of her newly found love and confidence, she realized it might not last forever. A human and three powerful wolves? A dangerous and forbidden entanglement that should have never existed.
View More(ANNALISE'S POV)Bracing myself, as I knew what remaining in that position could cause, I gently pulled away from Landon. My body protested for the warmth and body heat it had lost, but I willed myself not to take notice.“Um, how long are we going to spend here?” I asked, ignoring the look of disappointment on Landon's face.But a small smile crawled into his face, as he reached to tuck a stray strand behind my ear. “For as long as it would take your mom to regain consciousness. Also, when you have recovered and returned to your normal self. This whole incident has had a toll on you, and I want to ensure that you do not have a breakdown in the future.”“No,” I refuted, shaking my head. Not because I was ungrateful about his offer, but because of how unfeasible it would be for my studies. I was still a scholarship student. “I mean, I appreciate your concern of course, but…I can't miss classes for that long. My grades would suffer if I do, and you know what that means; my scholarship
(LANDON'S POV)All my senses took a stroll the moment Annalise walked into the living room. I was sure I forgot what my name was the minute I saw her. I’d been mid-sentence, talking to one of my guards about security protocols, when she appeared wearing my oversized shirt. The words I’d been saying hung tightly to my throat like a tree rooted to the ground. I couldn't stop my eyes from beholding her curves, and her thighs.If the guard had delayed one more minute when I asked him to leave, I'd have found a way to pluck out his eyes at that moment. Annalise's body was mine to behold, and mine alone.For years, the plan was to avoid every form of distraction, but now it seemed almost impossible to hide away from her.It registers so strong in me, if Annalise was a fatal distraction, then I'd gladly die in it. Even now, as my eyes bore into hers, with her back against the wall in my bedroom.I couldn't stop my mind from replaying that day again, at her dorm. It was our first kiss an
(ANNALISE'S POV)I followed Landon as he led me to a room he called his personal space.I couldn’t help but feel a strange mix of relief and nervous anticipation as so many thoughts swirled through my mind. Why did he bring me to his room? What happened to the other rooms?“You can freshen up in here,” he said, but something about the way he looked at me, made my heart raced. He pushed the door open and stepped aside to let me enter. “I’ll be in the living room if you need me.”“Thank you,” I murmured, watching as he gave me a small nod and closed the door behind him. Alone now, I sighed in relief, but I made sure I locked the door. The room was stunning, a wonder to behold. I took my time to look around, the interior designs, the paint, the lighting and the scent. It was as though he had prepared to bring me here all along. I ran my fingers over the golden design of the art frame on the wall, admiring the creativity of the drawings. It was a drawing of a man and a woman in a pass
(ANNALISE'S POV)Sensing the tension brewing between them, and if not stopped, a potential fight, who knows, they could go physical, I stepped in between them.“Please, do not engage in combat. Now's not the time and this certainly is not the place. I'm too emotionally unprepared for that now,” I said, my voice a low whimper.That seemed to pacify Lucas as he stepped away, a huge frown gracing his forehead. And without another word, turned around and headed for his car. He got in and slammed the door shut violently, before careening out of the compound.I turned to Logan who had been watching the exchange in silence, and he rolled his eyes before walking away, too. Soon, his car's engine was revving and he drove out of the compound. The cool evening breeze caressed my skin and I realized that I was alone now, with Landon. Without a word, he pulled the car door open, gesturing to me to get in. I obliged and got comfortable in the front seat, while he climbed in after me.“You know, y
(ANNALISE'S POV)I anxiously watched as the nurse fidgeted with the file in her hands, her eyes darting back and forth between us. Landon and Lucas exchanged a tense glance, their faces set in identical masks of worry and concern.“Go on, tell us,” Landon urged, his voice low and urgent Lucas and I nodded in unison.The nurse took a deep breath before speaking up. “I'm afraid this situation has become critical. Your mother's condition has taken a turn for the worse, and the surgery is still ongoing,” she said, looking at me squarely.At those words, it felt like a bomb was detonated in my head, my vision blurring. Landon’s grip on my wrist tightened, but I barely registered it.“What do you mean?” Lucas asked, his voice tight with anxiety. I guess my reaction was already affecting them. “What's happening exactly?”The nurse hesitated before answering. “It seems like…like her mother is giving up. Her body is shutting down, and we're doing everything we can to keep her stable.”I felt
(LANDON'S POV) After leaving the class, I made a deal with professor Maddie not to spill her little secret as long as she didn't report Annalise to the board and she agreed. I returned to the dorm with no enthusiasm and withdrew my PC, turning it on to see if there was any update from my hockey team. There was none at all and I heaved a relieved sigh, knowing I'd be free for the weekend. I went ahead to have a bath and settled on the couch, slowly sipping my favourite tea. It was a unique kind of tea I used to take back in the pack and I took it along. It had a way of calming my nerves whenever I was tense and the smell was soothing. It was getting quite late and I put the cup aside to have a quick nap but for some reason, I couldn't shut my eyes. I drifted from one end to another, breaking out in cold sweat even when the A.C was done. I stepped into the bathroom to shower again but still, it just wasn't working. The rate of my heartbeat suddenly increased and it felt like somet
(ANNALISE'S POV)My heart began to thump in my chest the moment Professor Maddie stormed out of the class. Fear engulfed my being and I knew I was done for.“Loser is getting expelled, whoosh!” Derrick chipped in mockingly and I didn't even bother to pay attention to him.“Shut the fuck up!” Lucas yelled and he swallowed the remaining words he had to utter. A lump formed in my throat as tears clouded my vision and I blinked back the tears, trying my best not to cry before them. Lucas got on his feet and drew me closer, patting my back lightly as he rubbed off the tears at the corners of my eyes.Miranda gave me a malicious glare and I ignored her blatantly, hoping Landon would return to give me the assurance that nothing would happen. “He can handle it. Stop getting yourself worked up,” He mumbled to my hearing and I nodded, trying to tell myself all would be well. He led me to my seat before returning to his and I tapped my fingers against the desk, feeling extremely nervous before
(LANDON'S POV)The moment we stepped into the class, heads turned as usual but we paid them no attention and I proceeded to my seat, impatiently listening to all Professor Maddie had to blurt. The class was getting bored when I noticed Annalise's gaze on me.I chuckled under my breath and like a frightened butterfly, she'd always look away the moment I met her gaze. I decided to glance away, giving her the privilege to take in the view of my glory and handsomeness, only to discover she was having an altercation with her seatmate.It escalated in an instant and I was shocked to see her flare up. I've always known her to be someone who'd always accept her title as a loser without retaliating. Seeing the aggressive part of her was quite amusing and impressive so I decided not to interfere. I signaled Lucas not to interfere as well as I knew he could be an asshole.He was about to object but I shot him a stern glare before adjusting in my seat to witness the good show. I thought professor
ANNALISE'S POV As Professor Maddie's attention returned to what she was teaching, orderliness was restored to the class but I still sighted a few female students, gawking at them. Miranda was avoiding Lucas's gaze and it was so obvious. In an attempt to look away from him, she met my gaze and I flashed her a mischievous smirk, causing her jaw to clench. She didn't stare at her heartthrob which was an evidence of the fact that she had messed up. Lucas didn't spare her a glance either. He flashed me a sheepish smile the moment I turned in his direction and I rolled my eyes at him.Logan had an indifferent expression as usual and I could feel Landon's pressing gaze on me. I thought to ignore him at first but his gaze on me lingered for what seemed like forever. He was seated at the far end of the class, leaning slightly against the wall while spinning his pen. I stole side glances at him and I was fascinated by how he could make his slender fingers move swiftly as the pen rotated in
(Annalise)“My date for the prom night? It's Lucas Wayne! He'll be here in a few minutes.” The school belle, Miranda, squealed as her clique surrounded her, all dressed to the nines. Who didn't know Lucas Wayne? He was the coolest of the popular Wayne triplets, trended on the internet for weeks over drinking a glass of water. Lucas was the leader of his football team, and won a couple of awards effortlessly which earned him the title “ Soccer Alpha.”I walked past Miranda in my knee-length blue evening gown and tripped, almost landing on my butt. “Watch it, loser.” Miranda's soft voice echoed in the hallway as I steadied myself quickly, rubbing my sweaty hands on my dress. Ever since my first day at school, the nickname had stuck to my body like glue, pushing my real name aside. I never liked the name, but I never stood up to it. I simply ignored it. Like every other day, I ignored Miranda and walked forward, heading towards the hall for the p...
