Third person Pov: Bianca stood by the pool area, with her hands folded to her chest just as she paced around.Ashley was sitting on one of the lounge chairs, patiently waiting for the test Bianca had claimed that she would carry out to prove her point. Deep down, Ashley presumed that Bianca was only being paranoid and unnecessarily disturbed, but she decided to remain mute and observe. “Isn’t she coming? It’s been ages since you sent that servant to go get her”, Ashley sighed in frustration as she held on to her forehead that still ached her.Even if it’s been weeks since the accident with Kayla, Ashley was yet to be fit. Most times, she had severe migraines that prompted her to scream in pain. It ached her heart that Kayla was out there having fun while she was wallowing in pain. But then, there was nothing she could do about it since no one believed that Kayla did that to her. She did her herself and she knew it, but didn’t know how. Her only suspect in this case was Kayla.“She
JasonThe past days turned out to be smooth and not filled with so much events. Kayla was cool with everyone of us and that created a bond I never imagined that I could have with her. I knew that the mate bond thing was real, even if I claimed otherwise. This was because of how much I had Kayla in my thoughts, even in my dreams. It started feeling like I shared a life with her because my entire being was engulfed with things that concerned her.I tried to stay away from her as much as I could too, but that didn’t always work out because we would bump into each other during breakfast, lunch or dinner.I was on my way to the football field when I looked towards the pool area and saw three ladies. A closer look at them revealed Bianca, Ashley and Kayla.Ashley was sitting some distance away from them, but I could tell that she was interested or involved in whatever it was that was currently going on. “What are they up to now?” I asked myself as I stopped in my tracks to observe them.
KaylaThe quad all stood around my bed, staring at me as though I was a treaure that was just found. I finally sat up and cleared my throat, even if I had no idea of what I wanted to say. I had a lot to say, especially to Jason who saved my life. But then, looking at each of them suddenly made me lose my will to speak.“I didn’t do her anything! I can swear to that. She just pushed me into the pool”, I started, with a sincere look on my face.I had thought that they were going to start blaming me for upsetting their girlfriend, or something like that.“Are you okay?” Jason asked instead and walked over to me, placing his hands on my forehead to be sure that my temperature was good.Ethan was the next to come sit beside me. He pulled me into a warm hug that melted my soul. Jake and Mason stayed back, but their eyes were fixed on me.“You scared us back there! Don’t do that again”, Mason said and licked his lower lips that almost made me swallow my tongue. He never failed to display hi
JakeUsually, I’m that brother in the quad that is last to learn of situations or that is forgotten. Put in short, I am usually forgotten and sometimes, treated as though I don’t exist. I didn’t care about that though. I loved how quiet and simple my life was…until Kayla came into the picture. I had a thing for her right from the minute she was introduced as our step sisters. There was a longing for her in my soul, and deep down, I wanted to have her in my arms. However, we were the very popular alphas and I had to succumb to punishing her together with my brothers. That act of ours made us feel sort of powerful, even if we saw her in pain.Somehow, I felt glad that she was our mate, but still, I felt sort of inferior and shy whenever I was in her presence. She had a fierce aura that made me recoil and melt, despite how hard I tried to carry myself or feel aplomb.“I would go take a walk. Take care of her”, Mason said and patted my back, after which he walked out of the room.Deep
KaylaThe minute the quad left my room, Bella came in and took a seat beside my bed. She seemed to be lost in thoughts and I needed no one to tell me the reason why.“I heard that Bianca was only trying to carry out a test and it was just as she predicted”, Bella started, staring at me intently while I scrunched my brows in a bid to pretend as though I had no idea of what she was talking about. “A test?” I asked and she nodded her head in affirmation.“She intentionally pushed you into the pool because she wanted to see if the quad would come save you and just as she thought, they did”, Bella added, with a thoughtful stare that almost made me laugh.“I don’t think that’s true. I mean, there are always rumors at the pack and one can’t know which is true or false”, I said and waved my hands at her to signify an end to the discussion. However, Bella was not willing to end it there. She had a lot in her mind and this was evident in her expression.“No…it might be true. The quad never c
JasonI was fuming with rage as I made my way across to Ashley and Bianca, who didn’t seem to be moved by what had just happened.I grabbed Bianca on her neck until she winced in pain and struggled to free herself from the grip.“What is wrong with you? You tried to kill her”, I declared defiantly, while they gazed at me as though I’ve just uttered something I wasn’t meant to.“You never used to be concerned with that. What changed?” Ashley asked with a cracked voice. I could see a stream of tears in her eyes. But then, that didn’t seem to bother me a bit. I was just furious that they planned to kill Kayla.“That was only a test! That was a test”, Ashley blurted out, and for a minute, I thought that I had heard wrongly.My emotions almost gave me away at this point, but I braced up and upheld my stern gaze.“And what are you insinuating?” I asked sternly, gazing at the both of them with a blood shot eyes.“Bianca was trying to prove a point, that you all can’t watch Kayla getting hur
KaylaI can’t remember the last time I felt so much tension in the air. The air was extremely stuffed and the glares coming from Bianca and Ashley were enough to rip my heart apart. We were sitting round the large dining table, facing each other, with the quad also sitting beside us. My heart was beating frantically, and my body was shaking in anxiety. I knew that I haven’t felt this way in a long time…a feeling of anxiety. This was basically because of the powers that I possessed. However, deep down, it felt as though something would actually go wrong, even with the powers I have inside of me. “You both would have to apologize to Kayla”, Jason started as I shifted my gaze to stare at him. It was crazy to see him as the person who backed me up the most. I knew that each of them grew a soft spot for me the moment they discovered that we were mates. However, Jason’s overprotectiveness was over the edge, and it stirred weird feelings inside of me.Ethan was sitting at another end of
Ethan’s PovI had a book in my hands as I barely paid attention to what was currently happening. Whatever it was I read was more important than the meeting that currently took place and this was because I wanted to know what my fate with Kayla would entail. After discovering that we all had her as our mate, I indulged in an intense research session, to find out what could have prompted that and how to act in such situation.For the rest of the month, I was willing to continue with the research, right until I laid my hands on something tangible.Bianca gently tapped me beneath the table, with a soft eyes that made it impossible to believe that she was the one who attempted to kill Kayla at the pool.“Can you plead on my behalf? I can’t apologize to Kaya…it would be a wound to my ego”, she whispered, with a small frown on her face. I scoffed silently and shoved her hands away from my body. Even if she was my girlfriend, the last thing I was going to take was someone who would attempt
