[Raihan’s pov]
Fucking hell! How could my brothers be so blind and dumb? Both of them saw a mere girl and got smitten by her just like that. The offensive point was the type of girl they fell for. Svetlana, our step sister who does not even know how to talk, dress up and follow etiquettes. How could anybody fall for her? Right? I was still not willing to admit that somehow I had some attraction towards her like my brothers.How could they fall for someone like her? Both of my brothers had lost their minds perhaps. Why were they not seeing what was in front of my eyes? I admit that she had some kind of magical effect on all of us but it does not mean that we should turn blind to everything. She could be planning something against us, after all we never got along well ever since childhood. And now her arrival in our territory, with our father on her side, Lana had all the power she needed to plot against us three. Easily!
When we picked her up from the airport I could see both of them being friendly to her. Fucking hell! They had their teeth out to greet her, both of them totally forgot that she was the same person who snitched on us. She was the one who told dad about those stolen candies and cookies.
I knew they both were drawn towards her, even I was too for some reason but forgetting everything was not a chance. For a fact I was sure that she had used some kind of charm, spell or any mojo to bewitch us all. It was not possible for the three of us to feel the same way about her.
That cunning woman! I was sure that she also gave something to our dad too. Why else would he give her equal rights as us? Not to forget he even told us to protect her as if she was a little kid. It’s us who need to remain wary of her and the tricks she has been playing on us.
I was certain and still am that she wanted to snatch the alpha position to bring us brothers down. The way she had been seducing us with her scent was enough to drive us all crazy. I know what her plan is but there is no way she will succeed in that heinous act.
There was not a chance I was giving into her seduction at all. I am sure she used some kind of potion to lure us all so she could have an upper hand with us. And I could not let my brother drool over her like mindless simps. That is what she wants!
I knew my brothers and was well aware how far they could go. Both of them would not dare to act against me which was why I did not react when Sahan linked us all in his head. However, Lana seemed to be hellbent on staying and I had to scare her away.
When both of them took her to show the room it was my chance to intimidate and scare her. And I succeeded in my stance when I saw fear crawling in her eyes. But for some odd reason something in me felt guilty. I was sure it was the effect of that magical charm she used.
There was a limit to how much we could force and scare her because dad was already supporting Lana as his own daughter. Even though she had no blood relationship with us, brothers. That was why Sahan and Zuhan were having lewd thoughts about her.
However, I knew what she was trying to do and how Lana was executing her plans. But there was no way she could lure me into her trap. I could see the distaste on her face when I avoided talking to her at the airport. Yes, perfect first hit!
In the arcade it became easier for me to threaten her to leave the pack faster. I was sure that she would comply soon after her 18th birthday. After all, if the event of her disastrous birthday was fresh in her mind then she would leave immediately.
Everything was going according to my plan when dad proposed that dinner. Unlike Sahan and Zuhan, I had no interest in seeing her whatsoever. Not that she was not pretty but to me I was under the influence of that same spell as my brothers.
I was certain that if I would look at any other woman then the charm would wear out. That was why I invited Joselyn to the dinner, knowing she would be happy to accompany me. Not that I cared about her happiness at all because I was tied to her due to the child.
The child. Yes. All I knew was being with her in an event talking and spending some time. The next day I woke up with her in a hotel room and just after three months Joselyn popped up at my door. I wanted to deny that pregnancy report but was also aware of my pack’s repute.
Unwillingly, I had to accept her as my partner when the DNA results were a 100% match. I was certain about my theory regarding Svetlana but when she sat opposite to me, I could not help but occasionally stare at her. Something was definitely wrong with her.
When Joselyn asked Lana to accompany her to the bathroom I waited for a drama. Knowing that she might have sensed my attraction towards Lana, she would definitely take some action. I was expecting that Joselyn might find out some useful information from her.
To my dismay nothing such happened when I saw Joselyn coming back with a smile. My eyes waited for Svetlana who appeared after a few minutes. However, she looked confused rather than scared which enhanced my worry as to what had just happened.
The dinner night went awfully awkward as Svetlana kept on thinking if Joselyn was warning her or what. However, what she could not decipher was why the brothers hadn’t found their mates when they all were 21 years old now. How was it even possible for them to not be able to spot their mate?It could not be that the moon goddess had not blessed them with their mates. The triplets were in the line of being the next alpha which meant they were supposed to have their mates. Svetlana kept on staring at Joselyn from time to time, while wondering if she would be the next luna of the pack. Meanwhile, during the whole time Sahan and Zuhan continued to treat her as the special guest. One poured her food while the other kept on asking her if she needed more. Whereas, Lana became puzzled upon their sudden switch of attitudes. Nonetheless, the whole dramatic night ended sooner. “Haha, it seems Lana needs a shoulder.” Alpha Zaro spoke upon seeing her swaying silhouette as they all entered the man
The next day Svetlana woke up in her room and realised where she was. “Sighs, I have to get used to this or get out sooner.” Rubbing her eyes she sat in the bed with a hunchback posture. It took her a few moments to recall the last night and the talks. What an amazing and awful night she had, at the same time. “Goodness! I hope none of the brothers brought me in.” Lana hoped that it would be Saikus who put her to bed or her mum. Only if she had known how the boys bickered over her presence. Nonetheless, Lana crept out of her bed to get ready. After yesterday’s alcohol consumption she had been feeling a headache. Walking out of the shower naked with her wet hair, she opened the wardrobe while the carpeted floor began to get wet. Having no clue that her fresh scent was being pricked by none other than her hot step brothers. In the same lane the triplets were able to smell her in their rooms. Sahan was in his bed sleeping as it was sunday, when his nostrils sniffed a heavenly scent.
The same evening after dinner when Lana was heading towards her room, Alpha Zaro stopped her to talk about something. “Are you free for a few minutes, kiddo?” Standing in the empty corridor, Lana couldn’t refuse when the alpha had been doing so much for her.“Yes, yes.” She took smaller steps towards the tall burly man who was in his fifties but still looked great for his age. “Is everything alright?” Lana hadn’t been addressing him as dad or even uncle. The alpha smiled and head patted her, while gesturing towards his study.As soon as they both entered the room, the alpha shut the door and asked Lana to sit. The awkwardness in the atmosphere had been visible as she needed time to adjust. “I am well aware that you are trying your best to fit in, Lana.” The alpha started to speak to address her issues.“Being in a new pack, new city and an absolutely new home is certainly a hard thing. You need time to adjust and adapt, take all you need and want.” After hearing how his sons had been
Lana’s attention was snagged by that male voice. She immediately composed herself and clutched her bag. “Ah, yes. Yes, I am alright.” Lana knew she had entered the office but the guy standing in front of him appeared to be of the same age as the triplets. Walking closer to the desk where the man was standing she questioned. “Um…may I know the incharge here? I have to get some information regarding my classes.” She was expecting someone older in the office, not some brunette haired young guy. The man chuckled softly and put down his book, he walked up to the chair and settled himself. “At your service, miss.” Lana’s shocking expressions soon turned into embarrassing ones. Anyone would mistake Lars as an assistant probably. “Oh! I’m so sorry, sir. I was expecting….” Lana immediately bowed slightly with a soft flushed tone. She could not help but wonder what a youngster like him was doing there. Her eyes stared into his warm hazel ones, such a sweet smile and a comfortable aura. “So
As Saikus dragged her away from the little yet famous gang of the institute. Lana could not help but inquire about the situation which was ongoing now. “Who were they? Gosh! Why am I being hated so much?” She complained while pursing her lips in a pout.“Well, my dear sister. You dared to come with the triplets. Crossed a major line there. Believe me, you will see more than this soon.” Saikus walked her towards the classroom, knowing that someone else might pick on her now. Once again. Hate everywhere.“Be prepared!” He head patted her despite being the younger sibling. Saikus was taller than Lana just like the triplets. Of course, the same genes were running in 4 of them, from Alpha Zaro. “Have a good day, sis!” He smiled and waved, headed towards his own class. Lana stood outside her class when a elderly lady walked up to her. “Are you coming inside or not, miss?” She realised that the strict looking woman with a crooked nose and specs on the tip was her professor. The lady in her
After her last class Lana received a text on her phone that the triplets were going to pick her up. “Heck no! I am not going back with those devils.” She knew how their presence had already added trouble to her matters. Lana wrote a text back to the same number that she will come back home by herself. Not knowing that the contact belonged to Raihan, and she had just angered the scariest one among them. She grabbed her bag and headed towards the gate.It was the moment when a junior approached her. “Miss. Is your name Lana?” When she nodded, the kid informed her that she was called. “Professor Lars is calling you in his office.” Lana saw the time and headed towards the office.Knowing it would buy her some time till the triplets are gone. She did not wish to go out only to spot them in the parking lot. Having that thought in her mind she headed to meet Lars. His office was in the administration block, the one a few minutes away from where her classes were.The block was empty when she
Sahan and Zuhan called the junior who sent Lana inside and interrogated him. Upon asserting pressure and a few threats he blurted out the truth. Everybody knew there was no point in getting in the mess, which was between Creslorn and Dark Stone packs. Both of the packs were influential ones and had spread their claws into multiple businesses. There was no way offending any of them was a wise idea. Thus, the junior eventually gave up when Zuhan promised him that Alpha Asher wouldn’t harm him. Of course! Now he had to ensure that too. “I will break his face if he dared touch Lana!” Sahan was bubbling in rage upon knowing he was behind it. Both of them dashed out of the office and walked straight towards the men’s dorm. It was not hard to find Asher as everybody knew the playboy alpha of the college.“Oh! Don’t you dare do anything less than that!” Zuhan took bigger steps and cracked his knuckles. Meanwhile, Sahan smiled with the approval of his elder brother. Both of them were prepare
Just when Asher was about to grab Lana, Sahan lunged forward and threw a punch in his face. Alpha Asher was thrown back and bumped into the table which was right behind him. The impact was huge due to Sahan’s supernatural strength. He was already barely holding back and containing himself to not fully transform. “How dare you!” Sahan growled at him as he crouched near Asher who was bleeding from head and nose. Alpha Asher did not get a chance to retaliate or land a blow on Sahan with his spinning head. Meanwhile, the way he was thrown away made everyone else present outside the room shocked. “The audacity! You think you can touch her while we are here?” He spoke in an assertive tone leaning in and grabbed Asher. Sahan moved his hand in her hair and lifted Asher’s face to glare him in the eyes. “Be grateful that you are in one piece.” Releasing his head, Sahan stepped back and stood up. “Let’s go!” Zuhan dragged Lana out of the room, she was so shocked and tensed seeing all the mess
“Shh…it is alright.” Raihan held her face and tried to calm her down. “I am glad that you came here, at least no one can harm you here.” Looking into her eyes intensely, Raihan was elated that she was under his roof. The idea of Lana being harmed and harassed had already left him uncomfortable. “It doesn’t matter anymore whether you wanted us or not. Now you have no way out, haha. You are already mine.” Raihan smiled after a soft encouraging chuckle. He wanted to convey to her the utter realisation that at least he wasn’t going to leave her. “Don’t worry about anything, alright? I am here, your mess is mine now.” She nodded blankly seeing him convincing her. Svetlana didn’t wait for him to say anything further, leaping further she hugged him. “Rest well. You must be tired after stressing out.” He meaningfully winked at her. Svetlana smacked over his shoulder playfully while pouting. “You pervert!” Raihan sneered and chuckled at her, pulling her closer from wrist. “For you.” Replying
Her moans were getting louder while Raihan’s excitement filled the whole atmosphere. Lana was unable to keep herself in the spot while Raihan held her thighs. Seeing her making faces out of ecstasy satisfied him. Somewhere deep down Raihan was elated that he was the first one to get into her panties. With a loud growl he released inside her but didn’t pull out. “That was—damn!” Raihan chuckled softly while still holding her from butt. Whereas, Lana was exhausted and slumped over his shoulder carelessly. “Aww, love~” Making a loving pout, he scooped her and carried Lana to the bed. It was the moment when he noticed the marks on her back. Svetlana supported her arms around his shoulders while breathing heavily. Sitting on the bed while still being inside her, Raihan traced his fingers over those marks. “No–” Lana reflexively ebbed in horror with a yell, staring intensely in his eyes with hesitation. Raihan extended his arm to touch her cheek but Lana shrugged off his hand. “It’s alrig
Lana and Raihan laid on the carpeted floor with a white bed sheet over their bodies. Both of them stared at the ceiling without making eye contact. “That was—amazing.” Svetlana glanced at him only to see Raihan’s torso naked. The sweat beads over his forehead made him appear more handsome. Reflexively she extended her hand to touch his face when Raihan shifted his gaze. Holding her wrist while looking at him, Lana was caught off the guard. “I–I was just–” She couldn’t generate an excuse immediately. Raihan could see her flushed expressions knowing she was shy about whatever happened. “Admiring my looks?” Raihan bluntly spoke with a smirk as he turned over on his arm. Pulling her wrist with force, Lana’s breasts and hand landed over his torso. “You know–” He resumed, releasing her wrist, Raihan extended his hand and toyed with her hair lock. “You could admire me closely, all you want.”Svetlana could feel her heart getting out of control. She didn’t want to admit that he could move he
“Hushh, it will hurt when the wolf will bite.” It took a moment for Lana to actually get what he meant. A visible blush appeared over her cheeks as she averted her gaze. Raihan was amused by her sudden switch of behaviour and it aroused him even more. Smirking at her, reaching for her cheek, Raihan made Lana look at him forcefully. “Look me in the eyes when I am talking to you, Svetlana.” His tone wasn’t harsh like usual, instead it moved Lana’s heart. Raihan was now handling her gently like a blooming delicate rose. Svetlana could feel her body getting heated up, her heart beating in the ears along with Raihan’s fast heartbeat. He leaned in further with his lips barely touching hers. Lana’s irregular breath fell over his face making Raihan feel his dick getting hard. “Always look at me when I am feeling you under me.” Raihan’s whisper made her feel the wetness. Slipping his one hand down while the other rested on the carpet near her head. Svetlana laid under his silhouette with her
Lana couldn’t take it anymore, ebbing as she ran towards her room. It was hard for her to swallow that she was some prize. All her life she craved for attention, to be valued, to feel important. But this was not what Lana desired in any way. Leaving the pack was already in her plan, being trapped like a trophy was not in her checklist. Everything came down crashing for her as she didn’t want to stay. Things had started to make sense which made her hands tremble and steps to stumble. Somehow Svetlana reached her room and closed the door.“How could he do this to me? I thought he genuinely was concerned about me.” Slumping in the bed, Lana threw a pillow in anger. “My goodness! How could I be so naive to think that anyone here is actually my family?” Placing her palms on the bed, clutching the bedsheet in rage. Svetlana stood up and wandered, seeing the vase on the table. She picked it up and threw it to ventilate her anger. However, Raihan grabbed it using his sharp senses after enteri
[Svetlana’s pov]Ever since I had stepped in the Dark Stone pack my life had undergone a serious change. Having no idea why I was being targeted by every single person. It wasn’t even that I had some kind of liking towards the triplets. well, until recently but that too Zuhan was the only one I was interested in. At first it was Joselyn for assuming my curiosity in Raihan, her fiance. Later on, Priscilla also joined because she believed every single woman around them was her enemy. Somehow my luck, nature, fate whatever you call it, dealt with both. Until Asher joined the picture and didn’t leave my poor ass alone. Why did he have to lie about feeling the mate bond? That still raised the question in my head whether the triplets sensed it too or not. Nonetheless, upon finding that all three of them felt the bond. Alpha Zaro announced about picking only one guy. How was I supposed to pick one when Raihan was waiting to wring my neck?However, that’s when I decided about picking him due
After everyone was done with the dinner, Alpha Zaro and his Luna headed towards the rooftop for stargazing. Alpha Asher and his mother, Luna Mace, stayed there for some chit chat. Raihan went to his room to slip into a tracksuit as he was going for a run. Lars already wanted to sleep just like Sahan, who was the first one to leave the table. Meanwhile, Zuhan and Lana strolled towards the front side.Cool breeze brushed past them making both push the worries behind. “I am sorry about what Raihan said earlier.” Lana spoke in a shallow tone with her head lowered. There was utter hesitation and shame in her body language. Zuhan stopped his walk and head patted her. “There is nothing to be sorry about, Lana. He is my brother and I know what he means. You don’t have to feel guilty for his actions.” Lana was unsure what to say and react to his reassurance. However, she smiled at his remark and attempted to clear her position. “But still that was rude. And all three of you are now in front o
“Then what do you even want? Why are you acting weirdly now after setting everything up?” Lana confronted him while Raihan was holding her wrists. He had a lot to say but didn’t know if it was the right time to begin with. “Is there something on your mind? Do you want to do things in some other way?” Raihan shook his head and stepped back, releasing her hands he growled at Lana. Something was wrong with him.“No, everything is fine. You don’t have to overthink.” He spoke and stepped towards the window. Raihan’s gaze darted to the afternoon sky as he sighed. “As I said you have my word, I won’t back off from my decision. It doesn’t matter what the trials are and whomever is going to participate. You will pick me and I will assure it won't look like planned.” Raking through his hair, Raihan headed to the door. Svetlana could not comprehend the reason for his weird antics. In her head he was acting oddly for some hidden reason. Because there was no way Raihan could be in love with her.
Reaching the resort, Svetlana and others descended the vehicle. Everyone took their bags while Asher picked up and dropped hers on the ground. Raihan was right behind him and smacked Asher, who in turn grabbed his shirt. “Hey, hey!” Both of them were holding each other by the neck when Lars tried to truce. “Easy there, guys.” Raihan jerked Asher away when Lars smiled and patted his shoulder. It wasn’t like Lars had any liking towards Raihan suddenly. He was just amazed at his switch of attitude for Lana and the matters revolving around her. Asher dashed inside while intentionally glaring at Lana who stood beside them. It was the moment when Raihan blocked his vision by coming to the front. Meanwhile, Lars and the other two guys enjoyed the whole matter. Raihan was being protective over her. Strange. As soon as Asher headed inside, Raihan threw an angry glare at Lars. The royal blood vampire raised his both hands in the air and stepped away. Bending over Raihan picked up her bag, wor
