KaylaThis morning was different from the others. I woke up feeling so dull and without the willingness to live. Memories of last night flushed into my head and mere thoughts of how Jason treated me made my heart twist in pure hurt. It was clear that he hated me but was only trying to be nice, just because I was his mate. The attitude he showed yesterday was a major indication of that.A deep sigh escaped my lips as I opened my windows and listened to the chirping noises of the morning birds. I watched show they happily flew around and I couldn’t help but imagine what life would look like if I was free like a bird. Birds didn’t have mates, not to talk of having four mates just like me. This was harder than I thought and deep down, I doubted that I would be able to tread on that path for a long time. “Hi”, I said to the little bird that perched on my window. It could clearly see me, but rather than running away, it came closer.I love talking to things that weren’t necessarily huma
KaylaI finally left my room towards evening. I had been absent since morning, and I knew that it would be a call for trouble if the head servant learned of that.At this, I went over to help out in the preparation of dinner.I thought of Ethan and how he brought me a tray of food and I couldn’t help but smile softly. Bella was throwing questioning glares at me, but we were so busy and unable to get in touch. We finally succeeded in setting the table, after which we went over to the servant’s quarters to have our meal. Usually, I had my meal in the servant quarters, except in cases where the alpha king invites me to the dining. That only happened when he had something significant to say…“Kayla…”, I heard a voice call my name just as I was about to head over to the servant’s quarters. “You should join us for dinner today”, Jake suggested, with a small smile on his face. He was quite shy as he said that to me, but I could see the sincerity in his eyes.“Yes…you should join us today
JasonNo…. I didn’t feel an iota of remorse for how I spoke to Kayla. She was beginning to feel like a special person, and I didn’t like that. She was making every one of us to behave like fools, and they all played along, without asking questions. Each of them liked her now and that was enough to irritate me to the core. I didn’t like that, and nothing was going to make me change my idea about that. She glared at me, and I almost choked on my meal. Despite how fierce I was willing to hold on to my ideology, I couldn’t deny the fact that her stares were piercing through to the deepest part of my heart. My brothers argued with me for a while, but Kayla remained silent. I caught a glimpse of tears in her eyes and my heart broke for a second. However, I recovered almost immediately when I realized that this was the little charm she had. She had a way of making herself the center of attention and making people's feelings flutter. Our father walked in at that point. He had earlier requ
Jake“But all of these happened!” I declared defiantly and immediately, everywhere turned silent. I had been quiet all these while, watching the banter between Jason, Ethan, and our father. My heart was heavy, and I knew that Ethan needed some backing. I like Kayla with all of my heart and Ethan’s suggestion came out to be the best. She shouldn’t be working as a servant when she is our step-sister. “Jake…what do you mean by that?” My father asked as his eyes turned red in rage. I gulped down hard and wiped sweats away from my forehead. The truth was that I was quite nervous, but I braced up the moment I caught sight of Kayla’s face. “Father…she is our sister and the earlier we take note of that, the better for us”, I stuttered, hoping that the words I just uttered made sense. Jason scoffed and glared at me, and I returned the dead glares as well. His sudden change towards Kayla was very surprising, and I couldn’t help but think or imagine why that happened. “I support them too
Kayla No, no, no…this wasn’t meant to be happening. I hated being in this sort of situation where some people supported me and others glared at me like I was a devil.The stares that came from the Alpha king almost made me faint on the spot. Jason was not helping out either, even if he was my mate. Which mate speaks against his other half? “What exactly is your plan, Kayla?” Jason had asked me, glaring at me and sending me cold stares that made me shiver.“My plan? Even the goddess knows that I never had a plan in all of this ”, I thought silently as I watched the brothers pouring out their different thoughts on the situation. “I’m truly sorry, father. I had no idea that the dinner would turn out this way. I shouldn’t have come”, I apologized and lowered my head to the ground.Mason didn’t stop pouring out his perspective, with the backing that came from Ethan and Jake. The dinner was a mess and I knew it. It was totally ruined just because they wanted name to be treated like the
Ethan’s Pov“Kayla…”, I muttered under my breath as I rushed over to her. She seemed to have passed out after gulping down the entire juice jar. “Is she okay?” Jake asked as he came over to take a careful look at her. Mason was not left out. He wore a panicked look as he rushed over to her, tapping her slightly and calling out her name. Jason sat still on the seat, stealing glances at us but looking sort of unperturbed. He was focused on his meal, barely caring about whatever might have happened to Kayla. “Kayla…can you hear me? Please say something”, I said as I tapped her softly. My heart was beating out of my chest at this point and the only thing that came to my mind was the drink.“Was it poisoned?” I asked Jake who exchanged glances with Mason.“I suspected something though. The speed she used in drinking this juice was quite strange”, Jake said and held Kayla who was barely conscious.“She is now being dramatic as always and that’s because she wants attention. All she wan
KaylaThe moment I took down the entire content of the juice jar, I knew that it was a wrong decision. It knocked me out almost immediately, but that didn’t last for long. My body system was suddenly numb and quiet, and then I felt a spark in the deepest part of my heart. There was a sudden rush of excitement and immediately, I felt the need to put out everything I had in the hidden part of my soul. I had no idea of what I was spewing, but I could feel my lips moving while the quad stared at me. I would rather not stop… I didn’t feel like. After a while, I felt my body in someone arms and that felt so good. I realized that they were taking me away from the dining, and this got me uncomfortable. Likewise, I wanted to pour out my thoughts, especially to Jason who was a thorn in my flesh. Whosoever it was that carried me in his arms was fierce because he was able to subdue and stop me from leaving his grip. I knew when we got to my room, even if my brain was in chaos. I landed on my
JasonI knew when the drama started in the dining. Kayla had gulped down a juice jar that was actually served for us. They brought that juice for us because it was our favorite, but she gulped it down before we could even take a taste of it. It was from there I knew that something was off. She was either searching for attention, or she was trying to prevent something. For a start, it looked as if she passed out because she placed her head on the table and remained like that for a long time. I was quite startled as I wondered why she behaved in such manner. But then, after several thoughts, it dawned on me again that she was only after attention.This prompted me to scold my brothers and remind them to face their meal since that was the most important. But almost immediately, Kayla started laughing in excitement and spewing things about being mated to us. I had no idea of what she took, but it was strong enough to make her bring things up from the deepest part of her heart. My bro
