(ANNALISE'S POV)

After slamming the door on Lucas's face, I went into my room to blush really hard. He was good at flirting and his words always had an effect on me; I tried not to show it out there so he wouldn't think I was happy with him. He had promised to go warn Miranda, only to get there and rub the fact that he still loved her on my face.

The awkward image of Miranda and the guys replayed in my head and I wondered for how long I'd be traumatised. The sight was so crude and it left me in shock. It was the first time I was stumbling on a guy's nakedness and it made my stomach churn.

She could get so shameless with other guys but yet, claimed to love Lucas. And to think that was the price she had to pay, just to get those guys to bully me, got me wondering just how much she hated me.

I had a quick bath and retired to bed, too tired to even glance through my books. Marie was not in the room and I knew she'd be with her side dick, Mark. She parades the campus with Mark as her b

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   CHAPTER 10

    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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   CHAPTER 11

    (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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   CHAPTER 12

    (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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   Chapter 13

    (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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   Chapter 14

    (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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   Chapter 15

    (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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   Chapter 16

    (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

    (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

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   Chapter 23

    (ANNALISE'S POV)The drive back to campus felt bittersweet. Leaving Landon had felt like a needle pricking my chest, especially at his disappointed expression. But beneath the sadness was a sense of relief. Back in the familiar and less luxurious confines of my dorm room, surrounded by my textbooks and notes, made me feel better.I quickly unpacked, and laid out my study materials on my small desk, the weight of the upcoming tests already beginning to make me feel tense.Hours flew by as I completely immersed myself in my studies. I re-read lecture notes, highlighted key points, and worked through past questions. My initial anxiety began to subside, replaced by a growing feeling of confidence. And just as I was gathering momentum, a sudden commotion erupted outside my door. Loud voices, followed by sharp laughters. Curiosity and anger gripped me as I couldn't understand why anyone would be making that much noise in the dormitory. But before I could even approach the door, it swung

  • Forbidden entanglement; Torn between the triplet Alphas.   Chapter 22

    (ANNALISE'S POV)The next day, I woke up to find Landon still asleep, his arms wrapped securely around me. A soft smile played on my lips as I watched his handsome features, the morning light that was beginning to stream in from the gaps in the window, casting gentle shadows across his face. He looked so peaceful in his sleep, a stark contrast to the tense and jealous man from the night before. Carefully, I unwrapped his hand from my waist, mindful not to disturb him, And slipped out of bed. The need to empty my bladder was pressing, so I quietly made my way to the ensuite bathroom.Relief flooded my system as I finished, and I lingered a little, splashing cold water on my face to fully wake myself. Back in the bedroom, Landon was still sound asleep, his chest rising and falling in a pattern. I walked to the table and grabbed my phone, the urge to check for updates tugging at me. I wanted to know if there was any news from the hospital about my mother, and also to see if anything wa

    (ANNALISE'S POV)A few seconds passed between us, the silence thick with unspoken accusations. I finally mustered the courage to approach Landon, who stood rigid, his face a blanket of cold indifference. “Landon,” I began, my voice soft, “you need to stop this. Stop being jealous.”He scoffed, turning away slightly. “Jealous? Don't be ridiculous. I'm not Jealous.”“Yes, you are,” I insisted, stepping closer. “You're acting like I'm choosing Lucas over you.”He turned back now, his eyes flashing like I had struck a chord. “And didn't you? He kissed you, and you just let him. He insulted me, but I'm the one who got yelled at while you comforted him.”I couldn't help it, a burst of laughter escaping my throat as the tension was momentarily broken. “You're so obvious,” I teased, reaching out to playfully tug at his arm. “You're absolutely green with envy.”He tried to maintain his stern facade, but a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his lips. “I am not,” he grumbled, though the

    (ANNALISE'S POV)Landon strode towards Lucas, his steps swift and deliberate. The energy around him reeked of rage. “What do you want here, Lucas?” he asked, his voice strained and menacing. “Why do you insist on being a thorn in my flesh?”Lucas met his gaze, his green eyes gleaming with defiance. “A thorn? I'd say you're the one who's stolen what's rightfully ours,” he retorted, his gaze straying to me for a brief, unsettling moment. “Our mate.”Landon’s jaw tightened. “Don't spew nonsense. Go find Miranda. She's waiting for you.”“Keep Miranda out of this,” Lucas hissed, his voice sharp. “This is between you, me Logan, and Annalise.” His eyes returned to me, roaming over my exposed legs as I was still clad in Landon's oversized shirt. I shifted uncomfortably on one foot, feeling heart rising to my cheeks. Lucas' gaze then wandered to Landon's bare chest, and a smirk twisted his lips. "So, you've already taken her to bed, haven't you? Stolen her away so you could have your way and

    (ANNALISE'S POV)An hour later, we were done with dinner and everywhere had grown dark. Landon used the button under the table to summon the chef, and as she cleared the table, he gave an instruction.“We’re retiring for the night, but I have an order arriving soon. Have it picked up when it arrives,” he said to the chef as she dutifully packed up the silverwares.And then he turned to me and flashed a smile. “Let's go.” I obeyed and accepted his outstretched arm as we exited the dining room On arriving in his room, although I had been there earlier during the tour, I still couldn't get over its sheer beauty. The walk-in closest alone that I was sure housed all his luxurious fashion accessories, took up a major part of the space, but still the room was still spacious.“Your space is breathtaking,” I gasped.“Thank you,” he smiled. And then he took off his shirt.“Huh?” I asked, my eyes narrowing. “What are you doing?”“Taking off my shirt,” he responded, looking at me like I had ask

    (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
