CHAPTER 36Amber's POV I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, my heart raced madly and my head screamed out just one clause. "You mustn't get caught!" I yelled in my head as I kept running.I couldn't take a glance back but I could hear their pounding feets. I ducked into a narrow corner sharply as I curled myself up to fit in and I held my breath until I watched all of them pass by.As soon as they all passed, I waited for a while before creeping out of my hiding place as I began rushing towards the mansion. Unfortunately, when I got there, the estate gate was shut tight already as I sighed out frustratingly, almost pulling out my hair from my scalp. How much did I have to go through in just a day? This was way too much!If they were all with snake tattoos, it means that one of them was the one who took advantage of me last night. Actually, my memories of last night were beginning to come back and I recalled nothing happened between us.I ended up passing out while we kissed but
CHAPTER 37Brandon's POVI sighed out continously, ruffling my hands through my hair. I was in a meeting with stakeholders of the company but I couldn't even pay attention. My mind kept drifting back to Amber's words.She claimed she was drunk and she didn't know what she was doing. I found this easy to believe because I recalled when she told me she can't handle herself when she drinks too much.Why didn't I think about this before jumping into conclusions? Was she really telling the truth or it's just a way to cover up for her deeds? That night, after the games, I drank too much that I slept off and woke up with an headache the next day. Just like her, I couldn't handle much alcohol. I should have known! I shouldn't have just judged her without hearing her part of the tale.I acted rashly and I regretted my actions. I don’t know how Aramis and Joey felt about this but as for me, I felt devastated that I judged her wrongly.But still I shouldn't fully trust her yet! Where was she la
CHAPTER 38 Amber's POV As soon as I asked that question, I regretted it at once and I saw his eyes lit up in suprise as he stared at me in amusement. I bit my lips as I looked away, I heard him scoff lightly."Actually, I mean....I'm just worried.. I don't want you dying at the mansion, people might think we caused your death." He muttered hoarsely ruffling his hair as he walked out, his hands in his pocket.Jerk! So that was what he meant and here I was, thinking otherwise. Gosh!"Ma'am, according to our hospital policies, we can't let you leave just like that. I'm sorry but you would have to get back to the bed." The doctor announced and I rolled my eyes lazily."Aren't you concerned about your health?" Aramis asked as he walked out with Joey, leaving me hanging.I had no other choice than to just return back to the bed. I was weak and I was only doing that to leave their presence. I felt a little uncomfortable around them and I was trying my best to avoid them.But I will still
CHAPTER 39 Amber's POV I swallowed as my eyes followed his every move of his cute lips. I saw him pout a bit as he tilted his head, staring at me in confusion as he flickered my forehead. I jerked away from him at once as I arranged my hair unnecessarily, clearing my throats nervously. If he hadn't flickered my forehead, I might have lost it and just ....No! Snap out of it Amber! I'm never making that mistake."Oh! Okay....training...tomorrow...got it." I stuttered meaninglessly as I ran off at once, leaving him standing there and maybe staring at me and also admiring my cuteness. I scoffed at that silly thought, Dream on Amber! My inner mind screamed in my head as I sighed out. I doubt if he would ever look at me that way. I had long buried that mate bond I felt because I couldn't bring myself to tell them. They might just hate me more than they already did. Moreso, I was surely going to become a rejected mate if i ever told them because I was really no match to them. They are Alp
CHAPTER 40 Amber's POV It was night already, I fiddled nervously with my nails as I found myself walking down the corridor to the training room. Joey had ordered me earlier to meet him them and I had no choice but to comply. I held my neck, clearing my throat as I twisted my neck sideways. Diana almost choked life out of me. If not for the intervention of a delivery guy, that might have being my end."If anyone gets to know about this, I'm going to surely be the end of you." Diana's voice echoed darkly in my ears as my lips quivered. I made sure I wore a cloth to hide my neck injury.I approached the training room as I took in a deep breath before walking in. As I sauntered in, I couldn't help but glance around the massively stocked training room. It was extremely stocked with varieties of weapons and a large space for training. It had high soaring ceilings and a marbled wooden floor.I had passed by this door several times but I never got to see the interior of it. I walked in ful
CHAPTER 41Aramis POVMy eyes fluttered open when I heard my cell phone ring on the bed stand. I groaned tiredly as I rose up and stretched my hands to get it. It was an unknown number, I yawned heavily as I picked the call on the third ring."Hello..." I said, rubbing my eyes sleepingly. "Your brother got drunk at a night club....come get him." The unknown caller announced as I groaned in frustration.Not again!"Ok....hang in there....I would be there in a jiffy." I told him as I hurriedly stood up, rushing myself into a pants as I grabbed my keys and rushed out.I got out as I made to get in my car but I suddenly heard a loud splash, coming from the direction of the pool. I creased my brows in confusion but soon shook it away. Diana might just feel like chilling in there. I thought with a shrug as I was about getting into my car when I heard a loud scream."Help!" It sounded distant and my ears rose at alert as I tried to be sure I wasn't hallucinating. "Help please!!" I heard th
CHAPTER 42Diana's POV"What?" Joey and Brandon asked Aramis at the same time, their eyes widened in terror. "She said she got pushed!" Aramis mumbled, stroking his neck as they narrowed their gaze. I balled my fist in anger, why were they acting so concerned about her? She was just a slave here, even if she dies here, that shouldn't bother them."Pushed...how did that happen? Can't she swim?" I asked worriedly, throwing my hands in the air dramatically.Why was Aramis around at that moment? Just when I thought I was going to end her existence for good, this had to happen."It seems she can't swim because she drowned completely. I had to dive in to bring her out then I revived her." Aramis mumbled and the others stared at him in amazement.Soon his words became clear to me as I clenched my fist in anger. He revived her, that means he did mouth to mouth restricutation? That means they indirectly kissed. What the f**k!! I was fuming right there , my jaws clinched."Why not just disclos
CHAPTER 43Joey's POV I stared down at Amber as I watched her dazed expression. I narrowed my gaze at her, arching an eyebrow questionly."Uhh...she's still getting changed, I had to respect her privacy and take my leave." She stuttered and I cocked my head."Joey!" She called out, holding me back by the arm when I was about walking away as I furrowed my brows, staring at her hands on my arms."What?" I asked as she bit her lips, smiling sheepishly and she tugged back her hair beneath her ears."I helped Amber with that." I thought as I smiled Inwardly. "If you're chanced, can we go out for dinner tomorrow?" She asked, staring up at me with curiosity. "I don't think I will be chanced....I would be with Amber, we've got trainings to do." I said sincerely and walked away before she could say anything further.Why did she seem startled? I thought within me as I strolled to the game room. I tried playing several games to keep myself busy but I kept lagging behind because my mind was fa
AMBER'S POV The harsh knock came again, instilling more fear in me and I realised that I was done for. It was obviously Diana and worse still, the triplets weren't in the mansion so she was going to make use of this opportunity to bully me like she used to. My hands shook slightly as I reached for the door knob. On a normal sense, I shouldn't have opened up but I knew that if I didn't, it might lead to more trouble and that's exactly what I was trying so hard to avoid.I felt helpless once more and I had no other choice than to just open up. I shrank backwards in terror as soon as she barged in aggressively, a menacing scowl on her face as she glared hard at me. If looks could kill, I'll probably be six feets deep by now.“Why didn't you open up earlier…?” She asked, eyeing me with distaste and I shook my head, shaking like a leaf. “Nothing…I was about to sleep when you knocked…?” I explained sincerely as she frowned deeply. “Don't feed me that crap….I know you!!” She stated, movi
AMBER'S POVAramis stared down at me, his expression unreadable as usual. I swallowed as my heart began its usual flutters. Yeah!! It flutters anytime I'm around them. Most especially when I'm been close to them, his hands were literally wrapped around my waist as I shuddered a bit. His gaze held no emotions, just blank like the usuals and I find myself getting used to it.“I'm…I'm.. sorry..” I mumbled innocently, avoiding his intense gaze as I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear nervously. He didn't say a word, his intense gaze remained solely on me as I shimmered. I wondered what was going through his mind, they were so hard to read and understand. I suddenly felt choky and tried to gently wriggle out of his grip but he held me back firmly as I gasped out, my eyes widening a bit.He remained silent for a while before opening up to speak. “How about now..?” He suddenly asked, in a deep gruffy voice that got my thighs dampening with wetness.Yeah!! That's how much effect his voice
AMBER'S POVI instantly noted the sarcasm and jealousy in his tone. Why did it seem like he felt bittered about what I said…? And why does he seem to keep using my words against me…?“No…that's not true..” I called out as Aramis eyes sparkled with interest, his gaze solely on me. “I enjoy being around you all, I feel safe only with you guys…” I mumbled innocently, fiddling nervously with my nails as I noticed them staring at me, their eyes litting up with interest.And I thought I saw an affectionately gaze but I shook my head, it should just be one of my numerous imaginations again. “But..” I suddenly uttered as they creased their brows slightly but they didn't say a word. I took my lips in, wondering if I should go on with what I had in mind. I hesistated for a while but I soon summoned up courage to voice it out. “I don't like when you're being cold to me, that side of you all scares me to death.” I dropped the bombshell, facing down to aviod their intense gaze.I didn't know how
CHAPTER 60: AMBER'S POVWhy that tone..? It seemed possesive, it was also laced with a bit of jealousy and rage. Their stern gaze remained on me as my lips quivered slightly, finding the right words to use. For a moment, I threw Diana a swift glance to find her fuming, her fist clenched as she eyed me in distaste.“Why does all this sounds like an excuse to me?” She suddenly voiced out as the triplets turned to glare at her sharply. She flinched but went on with the crap she was saying. “Don't believe her lies. I said she confessed to me this morning that she actually went out to meet a guy and they had an intimate session. Amber…why are you saying something different now…? You were pleading with me earlier to forgive you for using me to cover up for your deeds….” She paused as fake tears slipped down her eyes. “And I forgave you, you promised never to do it again, so why are u doing this again…?” She asked, her tone croaky with fake tears as my eyes litted up in amusement. The
CHAPTER 59: AMBER'S POV I shut my eyes close as hot tears ran down my cheeks. I was slowly loosing hope, the more I thought about how Brandon threatened me last night, the more I lost hope as I became helpless. “And who says we won't believe you…?” Aramis asked, tilting his head slightly as I rose my head up. His intense gaze was boring deep into my soul as I averted my gaze, taking my lips in as usual as I began fiddling with my nails. I always felt nervous around them as memories of how he caged me in the kitchen flashed through my head in a split second. I almost blushed but I restrained myself, he claimed that he just found a pickle on my hair. They was nothing so special about that, a part of my heart seemed to shatter at that thought.“You all find it hard to believe any thing I say and I've got no proof, all what I utter seems like a lie so I've got no choice than to just admit it. But I'm promising you that it won't happen again. I won't step out at night anymore. Please d
CHAPTER 58: AMBER'S POVI lay on the cold floor as I watched as Diana lips quivered slightly. The triplets were really angered by Alpha Gerald's visit and they knew he couldn't just pay them a visit out of the blues. And they were sure that Diana might have informed him about this. Well, they guessed right because she was actually the one who informed him about it.“Have you suddenly gone deaf…?” Joey roared in rage, his jaw clinching as his eyes twitched. Diana flinched, avoiding his ruthless gaze as she fiddled with her nails. Inwardly, I loved the way she trembled in their presence but I was no different from her, mine was much worse.“I informed June about it.” Diana suddenly blurted out, as she fluttered her eyes close, tears streaming down her face. She knew the triplets weren't going to take this easy on her.“How dare you…?” Brandon muttered in a low but dangerous tone as Diana took in her lips.“You said you were going to torture her until she begs for death and she was al
CHAPTER 57: AMBER'S POVMy chest tightened as I felt a huge lump in my throat. The air around me felt choky as I struggled to breathe. My life was at their mercy and their choice alone determines my fate.But I was slowly beginning to accept reality, all hope was lost. I was nothing compared to their befitting title. How can anyone one in their right senses think of choosing me over such an enormous and ambiguous title. I obviously didn't stand a chance, it would be better I just lay back in the trunk and flutter my eyes close because their choice was so clear.Should that even be a question…?My eyes fluttered close slowly, already accepting fate as tears streamed down my eyes. No doubt!! I was returning back to the pack with Alpha Gerald and my existence is going to end there for sure. I doubt if I can spend more than a day in that pack. June has also sworn that if I ever returned, she was going to make my life miserable. But I was helpless, anywhere I turned to, I always had an
CHAPTER 56: AMBER'S POVI felt suffocated in the boot as my body shook greatly as darkness loomed over me. I was about to get sucked back into those tragic memories when I heard him roar the engine to life, throwing me out of it for a while as the car began moving. My unending tears kept spilling as I wailed, my mouth was clogged so I couldn't make a sound. He finally got me and there was no chance to escape right now, I was doomed and it was time to face real hell.I heard the tyres screech loudly, coming to a halt as my tears ceased a bit, my eyes widened in uncertainty. What could have caused the sudden halt…? I was definitely sure that we were still in the mansion, we hadn't arrived at the pack yet, that was impossible.I couldn't see anything but I was paying attention to the sounds around me. The engine was turned off and I heard several engines roaring in the distance as my brows creased in confusion.Soon, the engines were also turned off as the slamming of doors followed ne
CHAPTER 55: DIANA'S POVI laughed out maniacally, rubbing my palms wickedly, I was enjoying every bits of this. Finally, my plans were all working out now and I'm finally going to have the triplets to myself. My gaze narrowed darkly as my heart kept fluttering with excitement as I glanced over at Amber to see her trembling greatly as tears cascaded down her face. It was time to face her doom and I so much loved the look on her face.It felt like I should just take a memorial picture of her at that moment, since I might not be seeing her ever again. I summoned the guards to open up the dungeon gates as they pulled her out of it, ignoring her weak struggles.The fact that she was weak made things so easy and smooth for me and I took advantage of her vulnerability. I knew my plans will eventually work out one day. I just had to sit and plan it well, it was smooth, one without fault and trace and no proof she tried to bring to the table could save her from this. I made sure to do a good
