In-Between The Lycan Triplets

Zelda Pov’s

Wind bustled through the branches of the trees, making the leaves howl in their symphony.

Walking along the gravel path in the woods.The crunch of the leaves underneath my feet, the wind whistling through the trees, or the smell of damp wood after rainfall.

I was just coming back from the court training, it is strictly for Omegas like myself in order to enhance our skill, that way we'll be able to defend ourselves from the rogue wolves.

On getting home, I was shocked when I saw the Lycan’s king convoy outside our hut. My eyes dimmed and my mouth opened in awe.

“What is the Lycan king convoy doing here? Did my mum do anything to offend him? What was her crime?” I asked no one in particular as I felt the funny thud in my chest which was beating rapidly.

I was scared, really scared of any chances that my mum did something wrong.

I've heard many tales about him, he's a no-nonsense man, said to be evil and cruel.

I didn't even know what to do at the moment, but I knew I had to protect my mum from him, so I ran into the hut.

“Mum!” I screamed, but my voice bounced back to me when I heard the voices of chatter and giggles embracing the environment.

“Zelda you're here,” Mum smiled at me, while I smiled, wondering what was going on.

“Wow, is she the one you were telling me about?” The Lycan king asked my mum and she smiled, nodding her head.

“Welcome Zelda,” He smiled,confusing me the more. On a normal circumstances, I would have been on my knees now, greeting him. But right now he was the one welcoming me.

“Mum, what's going on here?” I asked and she smiled.

“I know you have a lot in your head right now, but with time you'll understand,” She replied and I scoffed.

I wanted to yell and scream for her to tell me the truth, because all this is obviously insane.

“I'm getting married to your mum!” The Lycam king dropped the bombshell.

“What!” I yelled, not believing my ears, the king marrying my mum who is just an omega? clearly despise and insulted by the pack. That was why we had to live deep in the woods.

“Zelda dear, he's my mate,” My Mum added and I had to hold on to the wall in order to maintain my stance.

“M mate?” I slutterred as my eyes moved around them, waiting for them to say something.

“You remember the story I told you about a Lycan king and a omega wolf?” She asked and I slowly nodded, wondering why she was asking me about something she told me a long time ago.

“It was all about me dear, everything I told you was the history between us,” She said gently and I blinked my eyes, pretending unwanted tears from coming out.

I didn't know my mum was telling me all her life story all in the name of saying a bedtime story, I thought their love story ended in a sad way, but I was wrong.

My mum and the Lycan king were once lovers back in time, but they couldn't get married since my mum was from a lower ranking pack, An omega.

In order to protect his throne, he had to marry a rich princess. I didn't want to go into much details, thinking about what my mum suffered. Though my Dad managed to love her unconditionally, but he didn't last long. He died.

“What about the queen then? I wouldn't want anything to harm my mum,” I said and he smiled.

“I guess you didn't hear the news, the queen died tragically last week,” He replied calmly. With the look of things I knew he had no love for the queen.

I could recall when my mum told me he promised to come back for his omega mate, but would he?

Now I think he's back to claim his long-lost childhood sweetheart. Love is something unexpected as they say.

“I bless your union mum, I know you wanted this, and Dad would be really happy too,” I said, and she stood up, pulling me into her arms.

“I love you, Zelda, thanks for supporting my decision,” She said and I smiled, pulling away from her warm embrace.

“Umm Zelda, I already packed your bag, we're moving out,” She said avoiding my gaze, and I grinned.

“Fine mummy, whatever you say,” I responded and she laughed.

“You’re now my princess, Zelda,” The Lycan King said and I smiled. By now the guards were already taking our things out, putting them inside the convoys.

“We have to leave now, it’s already getting late,” He stood and the guards held his regalia as he walked out of our small hut.

As I closed the door, I stared at the place where we relocated after being called an outcast, insulted, and disregarded. Perhaps this was a new beginning for us, now we’d have to learn to feel among.

With all these thoughts, I slowly walked away and got into the convoy, then it drove off. I was leaving all my ugly memories behind.

Two hours later…

We were already in the palace as I waited for my room to be fixed. I didn't bother staring around like a lost puppy because I've actually been to the palace once, though as a cleaner.

“Hey, I'm sorry for keeping you out here when you should be resting. I guess the maids got the room order on short notice,” The King said and I smiled. This was the full meaning of do not judge a book by its cover.

I was expecting the king to be mean, but it was the other way round.

“The room has been fixed,” A guard announced and a maid came to me, she'd be the one taking me to my room.

“Have a good night's rest Zelda, I'll introduce you to my sons tomorrow morning,” He said and his words resounded in my brain.

“Sons?” I couldn't help but ask.

“Yes, they're triplets,” He replied, and my jaw dropped.

“What the heck! I'll have three guys as my brothers?” I mentally asked as I trailed behind the maids.

“Darn it! I'm in a deep shit!” I mumbled.
