What's in the box?

Author: Dark Mage
last update Last Updated: 2024-03-23 02:16:50

I was eager to open the package to know what was in it, but Mitch considered otherwise. He wanted the others to be with us to avoid any problems. As I sat opposite him, I kept on stealing glances at the box, trying to imagine what might be in it.

My hungry, gluttonous mind thought it might be chocolates. Who knows? The killer has a crush on me and confessed this way.

How else did he send something to me and ask me to enjoy it? It must be something edible.

“Why do you seem excited to open the box?” Mitch questioned after I asked him to forget about the others and open the package so we could see what was in it.

I lifted my shoulders in a shrug at the question, running my hand through my hair. I removed my hair from the ponytails a few minutes ago, choosing to let my hair cascade down my back. “I just want to know what's in there.”

He nodded, turning to face his system once more, dismissing me. “Exercise a little patience, will you? The others will soon be here. We will check what'

    The tongues of those men and their private parts, dried and stuffed into a small plate inside the box were what he sent. A scream tore from my throat as I covered my ears with my palms, shaking my head. Even as I closed my eyes, I could still see the smoked meat. My mates held me as they tried to get me to cool down, but it was difficult for me to do that. I couldn't unsee what I saw. ....It took me more than an hour to calm down, after vomiting everything I ate.“He didn't just do that,” I whispered, looking up at Mitch. I could still see the roasted parts even though the box had been sent to the hunters. It was as if the image were ingrained in my memory, never ready to let go. “It's alright. Just think of it as normal steaks —”“That doesn't help at all,” I muttered, trying to rid my thoughts of what I just saw. I curled on the couch and closed my eyes, willing my mind not to think of it, but it was difficult for me. It seemed my mind wanted to remind me of it every chance it

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   He asked me to meet him

    I paced the floor, my mind over the place. I was trying to think of how to go about this without hurting anyone. The man said he would not meet me should I tell my mates about it. It means he would only show up when I meet him alone. Though that sounded like something I would do, I couldn't even fathom how pissed my mates would be should they learn I kept something like this from them. I doubt they will be happy, especially Mitch. He will have my head for hiding something like this from him. I sat back in my office chair — It's Mitch's, though — my gaze going towards the door. I knew it would only be a few minutes until they returned to their office, and I needed to think of how to go about this without making a mistake. I already made one by leaving the office to collect the package when Mitch asked me not to. I couldn't afford to piss them off more than I did. And going to meet the man without letting them know was something that would infuriate them more than anything else. I w

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   A suicide mission?

    I didn't get a message from Mr Lover until 6 AM the next day. I was already awake when I got his message. Unknown: Meet me in two hours. Don't forget, should you show up with your mates —any of them —I won't meet you. I frowned, getting up from bed. Yawning, I walked into the bathroom to have my bath and brush my teeth, looking at my hideous reflection in the mirror. I looked so bad, more than my mates did. Sighing, I placed my hand on my belly, mussing. Why did this have to happen at a time like this? I was supposed to spend the days with my mates, giggling as they took care of me. This was presumed to be a time of glorious memories. Why did the stupid man choose such a wrong timing? What was he aiming for?I got ready with my mates within thirty minutes. I didn't have to overdress or try to look nice because there was nothing nice about anything happening at the moment. The black gown I wore, stopped just below my knees. Before, whenever I put on the gown, it always clung to my

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   Change of plans

    MR LOVER's POVI watched them leave, a small smile playing on my lips. They were like pawns in a chess game. If I wanted any of them gone, all it would take was just a snap of my fingers to get that done. It wouldn't even take that long. They were just vulnerable, out in the light. Sighing, I relaxed on the roof of the house, looking up at the sun. What do I want? I'd asked myself this countless times, but couldn't find an answer to that. First, I did it to get their attention, to rile them up, but then it turned to fun. I wished to play with my victims and toy with the hearts of the men I wanted. And now? I had somehow fallen for their mate. What the freaking hell's wrong with me? Why can't I just decide on something to fulfil it? Why must my emotions be all over the place? It was draining as fuck, acting like someone I wasn't, whenever I'm not acting as Mr Lover. Pfft. What a corny name. I just sent it on a whim, not thinking it through. It wasn't until the message got delive

    MITCHIt didn't get any better after that. Though he stopped sending those 'gifts' to Summer daily, the homicides didn't stop. If anything, it seemed to increase a bit, showing how agitated whoever was behind it, was. Summer didn't follow us to work today because she was sleeping. For the first time in weeks, our baby girl could sleep peacefully without any nightmares. It was because of the pills we got from the doctor. He said it was okay for her, and we were thankful for that. It helped her a lot, and she was still sleeping as we left. If only we could have something like that, it would have benefited us a lot, but our body will just treat it like candies, not knowing it was supposed to freaking knock us out. “Summer needs to rest. She has been stressed, and I doubt that's good for her condition,” I blurted out of the blue, staring at my brothers, who looked up, stunned by it. They weren't expecting it because we weren't even discussing her. I just thought of it and said it out

    “I doubt. Why are you suddenly acting like a baby?” Miles demanded in an annoying tone, looking fed up with our twin. “That's not —” “Mike is right,” I stated, pointing to the last line. Together, we all leaned down to read the content, choosing not to think of the last night I pointed to because it would make reading it all creepy as hell. Unknown: How are you guys enjoying the game? Do you think I'm creative because of that? Well, I know how good I am. You don't have to praise me. You left summer alone at home, didn't you? Aren't you worried I might sneak in and snatch her from you? Sleeping peacefully on the bed, she won't know what's happening until she's on my turf.P.

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   An odd secretary

    SUMMERNot only did I have a peaceful sleep, but Mitch told me we were going on a date this Friday. This was the best news I'd heard since the last time we visited the human city together, and I couldn't wait for that. Mr Lover hasn't called since he asked me to meet him, and he has sent no dead animals this week, which was for the best. My mates revealed no deaths have been reported. They said he might have given up his hobby and wanted to try a hand at something else.“When are you returning, miss?” Janet demanded, bringing my focus back to the call I had. Lost in thoughts, I forgot I was on a call with my secretary. I called to tell her I wouldn't be back until I sorted things out with my mates, but so far, she had been going on about how work had been and the new workers she recruited. “I don't know about that. I still have some things to take care of with my husband. I will return after fixing the loose ends here, okay?” I replied, tapping my index finger on the table as I watc

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   I found something

    MILESIt happened so fast. Before we could arrive at her side, it had already fallen on her. I doubt we'd yelled as much as we did before when we saw her fall to the ground. With our hearts racing, we rushed over to her. Mitch was the first to reach. He carried her in his arms, and turned, rushing back to the car. We followed suit, forgetting what we were going to check. At that moment, the only important thing to us was getting our mate to the hospital. That was the only thing we could think of. I drove the car, while Mike and Mitch sat in the back with her. The fall must have stunned her because she was still unconscious. “She will be okay,” I heard Mitch mutter as he hugged her tight. “Nothing will happen to them. They will be alright,” he whispered, placing his right palm on her cheek as he rocked. “She will be okay.” We nodded, affirming his words. Our mate's a fighter. We all knew she would be okay. But that didn't stop the dread we felt as I drove to the hospital. Had this

    “But before that, you guys need to wash up,” I said in my way stern voice. “What do you do after a full day of playing out?” “We wash up!” Blue replied while the girls groaned.“Good. It's time to do that, darlings.” The girls sighed at my words. With their shoulders drooped and matching frowns on their faces, they strode towards the stairs, with Blue skipping all the way.“How was work, darling?” Miles asked as he placed a kiss on my left cheek. “Good.” Smiling, I stepped into the kitchen to announce my return to my other mates before I went upstairs to help the kids with their bath. The girls asked to go first, so they could rush downstairs and eat the cookies their dad promised them before Blue could finish. And being the best mummy I could for my son, I bathed him first, while the girls groaned about how unreasonable this was. Really? They thought it was unfair because I didn't honour their wishes. I couldn't be blamed for that, though. Not when Blue was the only one who wo

    Four Years Later“Mum!” I turned at the call, smiling as Hazel ran towards me. “See mummy, I drew a cat!” she yelled out. “Oh, darling.” I got down on one knee so I could hug her. “Let's see.” I took the drawing book from her and made a surprised expression at the cat she drew. “It's wonderful!” I leaned down and placed a kiss on her forehead. “Soon, you will be so good at this, you will beat the best artists in the entire world.” “Even the humans?” She looked up, her eyes sparkling.“Yeah, those.” I patted her red hair, which was so much like my father's. Well, our babies all had red hair and blue eyes. I assumed they would have the same hair as their fathers, but they took after their grandfather. “Mum!” Scarlet and Blue ran towards me, yelling as they tried to outrun each other.Seeing how delighted they were at my return, you would think I left them for a trip, not knowing I just returned from work. Ever since the pack opened the veil to welcome the human city, the human

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   The mating ceremony

    When I assumed things couldn't get any better, my mates proved me wrong. I didn't know they were still thinking of the mating ceremony. I had long given up on that. Despite the change of treatments from the pack; I assumed they wouldn't fully accept me. Who would have thought my mates would get them to accept me?They didn't tell me about that because the elders were still waiting for an auspicious day. As my due date got nearer, they became apprehensive. However, they didn't tell me the reason until the elders provided a date, two days before the date the doctor gave me. They were so thrilled, they almost hugged the living hell out of me. It felt like they were going to press our babies out from how happy they were as they expressed their happiness. I might not be a werewolf, but I understood how important it was for them to bond with me before the babies arrived. Father was, after all, the one who made the rules. Funny enough, I had forgotten about that until Mitch mentioned it.

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   I didn't mean to hurt her

    SUMMERIt appeared Helen was the one who followed me. While the others burned in the house, she escaped so she would get rid of me, as revenge. It turned out her lover died in the fire with the rest.We fought with each other, and she would have hit the stone on my head, but she slipped. When I saw her on the floor, I couldn't tell what got over me as I climbed on her and used the rock she intended to kill me with on her. It wasn't until she was dead that I realized what I had just done. My hands shook as I watched her, tears streaming down my eyes at the sight of the lifeless woman I had just killed. I didn't know what to do, and could only sit there bawling out my eyes as I tried to tell the world I didn't harm her intentionally. Had she not sought to kill me, I doubt I would have harmed her. It took a lot from my mates to console me until I stopped shivering. Though I kept on muttering that I didn't mean to murder her, I wasn't as scared as I was when I hit her head with the sto

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   Is this another trap?

    “I support that,” I added when I noticed my brothers were looking at me, waiting for my confirmation. “It's settled then. No matter how many fake tracks we will get, we have all decided to scale through them, right?” John lifted an eyebrow, waiting for our reply. “That's right.” We nodded. If he was pissed we spoke at the same time, he didn't let it show. Instead, he grinned as he turned, and soon took off. We followed him, my brothers having changed into their human form after our first fight. They realized it was easier to fight the bloodsuckers in our human forms since our wolves were vulnerable to their claws.And like that, we ended up going to ten bases. It wasn't until the last one that we got on the right track. We learned it from a vampire who recognized John. It turned out John was with the vampire prince, who ran away from home when he was eighteen and refused to return.The night we beat him up was his first day away from home. Hearing about that made us guilty. Though

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   Thrown off track

    MITCHIt turned out we were right by enlisting John's help. I doubt we would have discovered a trail had he not been with us. Though it was painful to say these words, I would do that. His nose was more sensitive and sharp than ours was. While we couldn't pick up a scent from the different ones in the air, he could do that. He didn't even have to continue sniffing as he went like we would have done.Not only did he discover Summer's scent among the millions in the air, but he also found out that whoever took her was working with vampires. I would have teased him about not knowing the things his pack members were involved with but thought better about it. We had far more pressing matters to do, and teasing wasn't part of it. John didn't immediately set out when he got the scent he was looking for. He kept on sniffing to make sure his nose wasn't picking up the wrong ones before he took off. My brothers changed into their wolf forms and ran after him, while I called Jeremy for reinfor

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   An unexpected helper

    I watched him without saying a word because I didn't know what the fuck I should say. This wasn't what I was expecting. When I called the murderer a psycho, I believed he did it because of the gratification he got from shedding blood. Who would have thought they forced him to do it? I didn't blame him at all. Even though his way of taking care of things wasn't right. He shouldn't have taken matters into his hands like he did. But I still didn't fault him.Had I been in his shoes, I would have done worse than that. I was aware of how soft-hearted I was, but not in such a situation. I wouldn't have let those men stay a minute more on earth, not after all the things they did to my best friend.“I wouldn't say I understand your pain, and I won't also claim to know how you feel because I haven't experienced something like this. However, I'm not faulting the actions you took. Had I been in the same situation, I would have done the same, even worse.” He looked surprised by my words. “Reall

  • My Alpha Stepbrothers Are Mine   Fred's side of the story

    SUMMERI watched Helen with a bored look on my face. “Why did you tell me that? I believe in actions and not words, Helen. I hope you realize that.” “Oh?” She grinned, not looking fazed by my remarks. “I do too. I love action more than words, Summer. Soon, you will feel a taste of it, but not now. I just want you to enjoy the peace of this place while you can.” I didn't reply to that. All I did was roll my eyes and hope she could tell her words did not bother me. The door opened and closed before I heard footsteps. Like I did when Helen stepped in, I didn't look back. I just kept my attention on the woman sitting on the bed, while waiting for the person who entered to show themselves. And when they did, I could only gape, watching Fred with shocked eyes and my mouth opened wide in surprise. “Are you two working together?” I demanded, looking from one to the other while trying to tell myself I was imagining things. I knew I wasn't when Helen smirked. “Stunned?” Fred didn't say a

    He arrived a few minutes later. It was faster than we expected. And to further stun us, he ran all the way. If that wasn't freaking crazy, you got to tell me what else might be. It wasn't until he stood in front of us that we realized why we thought the scent on Summer's body was familiar. On the night Summer ran away from home after we found our mate, we went to a human bar to get drunk and ran into him. He had the most awful smell in the entire world, and that pissed us off more than anything else. To cut a long story short, we ended up hitting him to ease our pain. We might have wounded him, but we didn't care. He was an outlet for us. Though we regretted it the next morning when we sobered up, we couldn't find him. He seemed to have disappeared after the fight. That's if you would call it that. It was more like a beating than a fight since we ganged up on him. “Fancy meeting you again.” He folded his arms, staring at us with his mouth pursed. “Didn't count on meeting the bulli
