"Happy birthday Skylar! Wake up right now!" I heard my brother Cole yell in my ear. I groaned and covered my head with my pillow, trying to block them out.
"Go away! I'm trying to sleep here!" I yelled through the pillow, though I'm sure it came out muffled.
"Well, if you don't get up right now we'll have to force you too. Are you sure you want that?" I hear Will, the oldest of the triplets ask me teasingly. Instead of answering him, I turned my head in the other direction.
"Alright Skylar. You leave us with no choice then." Liam, the youngest says before everything becomes suspiciously silent. Just as I'm about to check what they're doing, I'm on the floor with three huge oafs on top of me. I groan as they're weight crushes me.
"Why are you guys such jerks!" I yelled when they finally crawled off of me. I don't really mean that, I never could. Although they are highly annoying they're the best brothers a person could ask for.
"Because we love you!" Will sang loudly as he rested on his elbows, watching me with an teasing smirk. Yeah, and he's supposed to be the mature one. Not.
"Now get up. School starts soon and mom made you a surprise birthday breakfast." I look at them as if they're stupid (which they are), that they think that will get me up.
"Can't I just stay at home? It's my last day anyways, so what's the big deal?" I ask them while biting my lip, trying to keep myself from laughing, since they were wearing colourful party hats.
They eventually did persuade me to get up, it took a lot of convincing, and a bribe that involved oreos. I slowly stood up before making my way into the bathroom and taking a quick shower. Once done in there I walked out and got changed. I walked over to my mirror, assessing the outifit. I always dressed in plain clothing. I was wearing a plain black T-Shirt with dark blue jeans and sneakers. I didn't believe in dressing up for school. What's the point?
I put my hair up in a ponytail, not bothering with any make-up since I don't wear it. Some girls enjoy wearing it but I'm not one of them. I've just never liked the 'feel' of it on my face. Once I was satisfied with how I looked I headed downstairs only to be stopped and crushed into someones chest. I looked up and saw it was Will. I was then passed on to Cole, then finally Liam. By the time they put me down, I was gasping for breath.
I think they're trying to kill me.
I do love them with all my heart and I know that the feelings mutual but they sometimes forget that they're stronger than me. My big surprise breakfast was chocolate chip pancakes. Yum. Though Liam tried to steal some of mine, causing me to almost stab his hand. Twice.
No one touches my food.
After eating my delicious breakfast I went upstairs again to grab my bag and homework that I forgot to put away. Once I know that I have everything I head downstairs again. I say goodbye to my parents before jumping into my brothers' car. The trip there was silent, with me reading one of my favourite books, Liam and Cole on their phones and Will driving.
Honestly, I was so glad to be leaving this place for a year. For some reason my school is really behind and still pick on the 'nerds' of the school. Which is pretty much just me. Sure there are the 'geeks' but everyone classifys me as the 'nerd', stupid labels. I'm bullied constantly but hey, what can you do? Maybe I could stand up for myself? Yeah, just one problem with that.
Kyle Black.
He's your average, good-looking, football playing, jerk. And the big reason why my life at school is hell. Sure, somedays I just wish I could wipe that smug smirk off of his face, but then I remember that he's the future Alpha. Can't mess with them. People seem to like calling me 'Nerdy Skylar.'
It doesn't even rhyme! Though I just kept reminding myself that this is my last day here for a while, so I'll finally be free of them later today.
Finally pulling up to the school grounds I looked around and saw everyone hanging around and talking with they're friends. At least I know I have a few people waiting in there for me. They make being here a little less painful. As I climbed out the car, so did my brothers.
"What are you doing?" I asked them as they stood in front of me, folding their arms over their chest, trying to look intimidating. I rolled my eyes before giving them my attention.
"Now that you're sixteen and can find your mate, we want to discuss a few things with you. When you do find him, you will not let him mark you. Second, if you feel pains starting, you call us immediately. Don't try and act tough, just call us and we'll be over as soon as possible. Lastly we'll pick you up from here and hit the road straight after. Understand?"
"Yes fathers. Bye!" I yelled back at them, heading towards the front of the school. I watched them drive away, making me feel nervous now. I gulp as I feel people's glares on me. Though I couldn't concentrate on that as only one thought kept running through my head.
"I hope I don't meet my mate today."
Edited________________________________________Once I was by the courtyard, I ducked my head and began making my way to the front of the school. My family wasn't so aware of what happened when they dropped me off here. I couldn't tell them though. I need to just deal with it by myself. Well, it's not like I'm alone in this place.As I was about to walk up the front steps I heard someone call my name. I stopped and looked around me, searching for the person. I knew who it was, considering only two people in this school called me by my actual name.Dylan.We've been friends ever since we started high school. I still remember when we first met, I was eating lunch and him being the weirdo that he is, decided to try and steal my lunch. I may have punched him in the face, causing him to tackle me to the ground, ending with us both having detention. Having detention with him was interes
Edited_________________________________________No! No! No! No!This cannot be happening. I can't find my mate now. I'm leaving today. I won't see him for a year. And what if he rejects me? I can't be here for that, I just can't.After my wolf had said the actual word, I mentally started panicking. I kept thinking of so many different scenarios and none of them ended well. My hands began to sweat and I started hyperventilating.My wolf on the other hand was howling for joy, calling out to her mate over and over again. I knew that she wanted me to go follow the scent, and by the way it kept growing stronger, I knew that he'd be here any minute now. I didn't stick around to find out who I was destined to be with, I shoved my chair back and ran out the back door of the class.I wasn't ready for this. I didn't want a mate.My wolf kept how
Edited_________________________________________KylePOVWaking up this morning, my wolf was very excited. He continuously kept running around, smiling and just looking happy. It was odd for him though. He wasn't the type of wolf to be 'giddy', he was always calm and collected, not really taking interest in my life unless it came to pack issues.I had asked him numerous times why he was suddenly being like this, but he'd just ignore me, going on with jumping around. I eventually gave up, shrugging.I grabbed my school bag, lugging it over my shoulder before making my way downstairs. Walking into the kitchen, I saw my father sitting at the kitchen table, reading through a few files while drinking coffee. Mom was drinking her coffee, leaning against the kitchen counter. She smiled when she saw me."Good morning sweetheart." I smiled, sitting down
Edited________________________________________Finally we had made it to the airport, I swear my parents were getting lost on purpose. Not sure for the reason but I don't want to dwell on that. Climbing out of the car, I went to the trunk and grabbed my bags. I pulled it out before setting it on the floor. Thank goodness for roller bags.Once everyone had their things we walked to the entrance of the airport, walking through the doors people all around were walking quickly, some even running while others casually sat around. Not wasting anytime we made our way to the booth to get our tickets. As we stood there I couldn't ignore the fact that my heart still felt like breaking and that I wanted to cry a river of tears. But I had to be strong right now, I couldn't let anyone see my pain, especially my brothers.As we stood in line I felt my tummy rumble. I told my parents that I was gonna

Edited___________________________________________________________________"Home, sweet home!" I cheered happily, not caring if the entire world had just heard me. Walking into the foyer I immediately dropped my bags, having missed our old house. It all looked the same as we left it.
Trevors POV“You know this would be a lot easier if I didn’t have to drag you through this forest, kid.” I heard Gavin grumble for the umpteenth time. I continued to ignore him, not having the fight in me to argue or frankly do anything. All I could think about was the look in Evie’s eyes, the pure fear and sadness. I broke our promise. Mom had always told me that a promise is special, that no matter what you would do everything in your power to honour it. And yet here we were, Gavin dragging me through the forest while I wallowed in pity over losing Evie. I didn’t know her long, that was true, but she was the first friend I had made completely on my own without the help of Payton. Plus, when we got to talking, she kind of reminded me of him as well. I lost him once, now I felt like I lost him again.I wish we hadn’t come here; I wish we had just stayed where we were. Payt
Trevor's POVI lost track of how long I had been here. Days turned into nights; nights turned into days. There was no window in the dungeons for me to know. The only time I ever got to see even artificial light is when Gavin came down with those two scary men, who I still hadn't learnt the names of; along with the evil lady and Rob. Those two rarely visited me though. Everyday I would receive a beating, making me wish that they would just end it, that the
Trevor's POV"Mommy! Daddy!" I yelled out to her, watching as everyone tried to push past an invisible force that held them back away from all of us. I continued trying to escape the man's tight grip, kicking and screaming for my parents. I didn't like these people, they were evil. Just as I began screaming out to my parents once again, a bright light washed over us and my family was gone.
Everyone was rooted to the spot as Will's mate cried, trying to wake him up, even though all her efforts were futile. It was clear to see that Will's neck had been snapped. I turned and looked over to Skylar, tears were streaming down her cheeks as she collapsed to the ground. I understood her pain to an extent. Even though Troy had tried killing me and took my position as Alpha of my pack, he was like my brother. Just like Theo and I, we both had known each other since we were pups."Can't you
"I'd do anything to please my mate." He said with a smirk on his lips, wrapping an arm around her waist and bringing her close to his chest. He kissed her before pulling back and looking back over to Callie. I wanted to tear him apart, I wanted to rip off each and every limb. How could someone do this to our children? They were innocent, they didn't deserve what they were going through. My little Payton didn't deserve to be taken away so early. Now seeing Trevor cry in terror, tears falling down his cheeks, I wanted nothing more than to kill all of them with my bare hands.
Callies POVI couldn't even begin to explain my confusion as I stared at the men in front of me. Adrian stood tall, with his head held high, as did his father. They resembled each other in every single way, except I knew that Adrian cared for his children. Looking around, everyone here all had a glare set on Adrian. It didn't seem to phase him. He stood there, no emotions on his face.
Callie's POVDid he really do this?Was Adrian truly capable of killing Payton?
Adrians POVCallie jumped at me, ready to tear my throat out. Luckily I was quick enough to catch her, wrapping my arms around her tightly and she pounded onto my chest. She tried reaching up but her arms were stuck between our chests.
Adrian's POV"You better start explaining what happened to my grandson." Sky spoke sternly, her glare fixed on Troy. He gulped, looking up at her nervously. It had been over an hour since the doctor said Payton would be alright. How could someone have done this to him? He's just a little kid.
