PLAYTHING OF THE ALPHA PREDATORS 170B
APRILMy toes curled underneath me when I felt hands teasing the zip behind my jumpsuit. Xander’s hands were in my hair as he kissed me silly, so I knew those weren’t his hands. They had to belong to Ace or Nick. It didn’t matter who it was though, their touch was equally electrifying and completely unraveling.“Every inch of you looks and feels absolutely perfect,” the words were engraved in a corner of my heart as soon as they left Ace’s lips. It turns out he was the one behind me afterall.“Mind scooching? I’d like to reward her specially for being such a willing party to be mated to us,” I heard Nick say and then Xander broke the kiss. Not for long though, he stood at my side, used two fingers to hook my jaw and turned it towards himself before rejoining our lips in a kiss full of frenzy and a beautifully burning passion. Then, I felt Nick drop to his knees before me and push my legs apart to accommodate him. My core throbbed at the thought of whatever he had in mind, especia

BROOKE The earth might still be spinning around its orbit for others, but for me, it stopped on the day Ace conquered the love spell. Even after contracting one of the most powerful witches in existence, his unexplainable and disgusting obsession with April still prevailed and allowed him outgrow the love spell. From speculations, I gathered that no one had ever fought past a spell done by the almighty Sage, so I was confident that Ace would remain obsessed with doing my bidding for the rest of our lives. So, imagine my utter horror and disappointment when he barged into my mother’s house a few days ago to denounce me and everything that concerned me. It felt like the last hope I had was ripped harshly away from me and I was left with a cold and aching hollow in my chest.Especially because my mother didn’t waste a second to rain all sorts of hell down on me as soon as Ace departed.She looked me dead in the eye and tagged me the biggest mistake of her life, claiming that if she

BROOKE My ex-fiancé was in the premises.I forced myself to swallow the dumpling in my mouth and my stomach felt hollow and painfully tight as I slowly turned around to get visual confirmation of my suspicions. Indeed, it was him. And as though his presence wasn’t ruining my appetite enough, I spotted my replacement beaming right beside him. Seeing her hold his hand as they walked into the restaurant made me so fucking nauseous and I was on the verge of exploding into a pile of jealousy where I sat. Ace being at her side was already enraging enough, but the fact that she also had his best friends wrapped around her little deceitful finger somehow managed to make me feel even worse. Xander and Nick were walking behind her and Ace and they all looked dressed up for a date. It made me green with envy that she was able to whip up not just one, but all three of the most powerful heirs in the country. What was so special about a human tramp that made them so eager to kiss her feet? W

NICK“Do we have to go?” Xander groaned, pouting childishly as Ace drove into the gates of Enigma. April rolled her eyes at him, smiling, “for the millionth time, Xander Davenport, you have to attend the mandatory meeting your fathers set up.” “Frankly, I’d rather not,” Ace shrugged as he turned towards the finance lecture halls, “What I would love to do is drive my friends to the nearest pub and get shitfaced with tequila.” A swat over the head from April made Ace yelp and burst into laughter. “What? I’d rather do that than entertain the assholes that tried to kill you barely a week ago?” he was still laughing, but there wasn’t a shred of amusement attached to it, just suppressed rage. “I don’t want to fucking look at them,” he spat.“Neither do I,” Xander backed him up. “Nor I,” I tagged along. April pressed a palm over her forehead, sighing tiredly as she looked from one of us to the other, then repeated the motion. “We talked about this all morning, guys,” she shut her eye

NICKOur fathers were seated at a round table, passing a bottle of whiskey amongst themselves in a way that was habitual.From the first glance, I could tell that they’d been seated at that table more times than I could possibly guess. What had they been plotting at every unfortunate meeting? April’s demise? I hoped the fuck not. “You called us here to drink?” Ace spat rudely, breaking the tense silence in the room. Xander, on the other hand, just pulled out a chair and made himself disturbingly comfortable in it, throwing his feet on the table and proudly crossing his legs. I considered myself a hothead, but I was definitely the cooler friend of the three of us, especially when our parents were involved. But after the way they’d treated April, I had no plans to show them even a shred of respect. So, I followed Xander’s lead and made myself as comfortable as I could, enjoying the annoyed looks that spread over our fathers’ faces. “That’s no way to speak or behave in the presence

APRILThe mating ritual was in a few hours, and I seemed to be the most antsy person about it. Xander, Ace, and Nick seemed to be feeling nothing but excitement. The same emotion they’d been rolling off in waves two days ago when they confirmed that they’d landed a sorceress for the ritual. Believe it or not, finding a sorceress to mate us officially was hectic.First off, their fathers had instructed every sorceress in the country not to attempt mating us or they’d rain hell on them. When I heard of that, I wondered bitterly why they hated our union so desperately when we were clearly in love with each other and having the best time of our lives. I mean, since their meeting with their fathers a few days ago, I learned the reason why they hated me so much, but I still didn’t understand it. Why were they so willing to hang on every word they’d been told by some messenger who conveyed a false prophecy? Why was that enough for them to plot my death without even giving our love a chan

APRIL We stood before the altar, hand in hand. Xenia, the officiating sorceress, was behind the altar, chanting something under her breath as she sprinkled a purple bubbling liquid all over the altar. I sucked in a sharp breath, finally experiencing the burst of excitement that the guys had been radiating for days. Now that it was about to happen, it felt like the most destined occurrence in history, nothing had ever felt as right as this decision to be mated with them. In realizing that, I figured out why I’d been a mess of nerves earlier. It’s because it hadn’t dawned on me that it was real, it had felt too good to be true. But now, as we were preparing to proceed with the ritual, it felt more real than anything ever had.“You’re fucking perfect, your ass looks like a peach in this dress,” Ace whispered to me and I blinked in shock, my cheeks turning red at how nasty he sounded. A sinful bout of heat washed over me and I poked him in the side with my elbow for toying with my e

APRILToday would go down in history, a day I would never forget. Why? Because after today, I’d have officially moved in with the loves of my lives and I had no intention of ever living with anyone else but them from today onwards. While I was glad that we’d be moving in later that evening, what I didn’t understand was how the entire college also knew about it. Ever since the mating ritual, everyone in school had found a way to dig their noses into our business because they guys and I arrived at school together almost every single day. Each time we went on a date, there were pictures of it flying around school the next day. It was borderline creepy that there were always people trailing us. I wasn’t spared from mean comments from girls that saw me as the poster girl for whoring, and there was a surprisingly disturbing amount of girls that just kissed my ass and begged for tips on how to bad three men at once. All the gossip and educational blogs for Enigma were carrying one new

PLAYTHING OF THE ALPHA PREDATORS EPILOGUE
PROLOGUEAPRIL“Sandy, stop making your brother cry. You promised that you wouldn't do that today, remember?” I groaned as my oldest child terrorized her little brother. She shrugged, laughing, the mischievous glint in her eyes matching that of one of her dads whose character she’d inherited; Ace. “It’s so easy to make him cry, I promise I wasn't even trying. I’m just being myself,” she flipped her dark lush hair over her shoulders, the glossy and stunning sight also resembling that of her fathers. She was such a daddy’s girl that she took every last bit of her being from them; her drop dead gorgeous looks and her fearless, stubborn personality. According to her dads, she got her stubbornness from me and not them, but I refused to believe that. “Sweetheart, putting a worm in your brother’s shoe doesn't count as being yourself,” Nick stifled laughter as he walked into the living room, dressed handsomely in suit that was identical to our son Samuel’s. “I’m a prankster and an anima

APRIL“Well, it’s a good thing I know exactly where that asshole is,” Nick’s mom said, the anger in her voice superseding his.At least Xenia’s trip across the world had proven to be the answer to our problems. But now, we had yet another broken hearted mate to add to the mix, and just like me, the pain sprung from parental issues. However, there was no time to dwell on that. The moon goddess had given us an opportunity to reclaim the peace in our city, so we had to focus our all on that. After the city was secure, we'd find a way to tend to our broken hearts and find the emotional healing we all deserve.But for now, all that mattered was find Nick’s monster of a father and putting and end to his evil attacks. “Are you sure this is the place, mom?” Nick asked as we pulled into the empty driveway of an abandoned factory in the middle of nowhere. “I'm certain. I'll never forget it because I traced his assets all over the city in a bid to uncover proof of his evil agenda, but he cau

APRILWe all followed behind him, running until we stopped outside what seemed to be a prison cell. There was a woman dressed in tattered clothes and covered in dust cowering in a corner and hugging her knees to her chest, and something about her was oddly familiar. My mates also seemed shocked by her presence, but not in the same way that I was. The look in their eyes told me that they knew something about this mystery woman that I didn't know. Before I could even ask about it, Nick grabbed the iron bars and broke them off with a deep growl before running into the cell and wrapping his arms around the woman. That? That was the most confusing thing I’d ever witnessed. And I needed answers right now.I started to stomp towards the cell when Nick said a word that made me freeze in place, understanding washing over me in a thousand waves. “Mom! It’s you!”I blinked repeatedly, awfully confused. “Mom?” Ace and Xander looked away from the emotional reunion unfolding before us and nodd

APRILGlinda was confirmed to have been dead for good, but our hellish experiences still didn't cease after her death. Personally, I was still grieving my mother and the wonderful life I would've enjoyed with my parents if she hadn't swooped in and turned things upside down. My mother’s burial was an emotional moment for me and I broke down completely while delivering the eulogy. The guys even had to come upstage and keep from falling apart some more. The days that followed weren't any greener, especially with the dark void around the city worsening and swallowing us into a vortex while I was still grieving.Of course we were terribly confused as to why the spiritual attacks had carried on even after Glinda’s death, but no one had a reasonable answer to that. It was fucking frustrating having to watch people in pain almost every damn day. It sucked the humanity out of one’s soul and replaced it with nothing but bitterness. The only thing that was clear to me about the pattern of

APRIL“You rotten lads, you couldn’t just mind your damn business? This is your fathers’ karma, why did you have to dig your stupid snotty noses in it?” she hissed angrily, overly displeased that she’d been found out by us.“We should be asking the questions,” I responded, upset that she hadn’t even made an effort to explain herself, “we came here thinking this whole fiasco was orchestrated by Glinda, only to see that it’s you, mom?!” The disappointment in my voice was thick, but she obviously didn’t give a shit about my feelings because she broke into hysterical laughter. “Mom? I’m not your fucking mom you idiotic little whore,” she rolled her eyes, and then she snapped her fingers, causing her face and physical appearance to warp instantly. Suddnely, she was a silver-haired woman with countless ancient tattoos of the moon and a shiv stuck in her heart that told us more than we needed to know. Later on, the Alphas had given us a more detailed tale of the day they finally took dow

APRIL It’s been almost a month of back to back horrors breaking out in the city.We’d successfully chased the rogues out of the city and the sorceres were stationed alongside the armies by the borders, making sure that no more enemies were able to breach our defenses and get in.Heaps of bodies had been buried over the weeks and the entire town was reeking of grief. Loved ones were being mourned in different corners of the city were candles were lit beside framed photos and bouquets of flowers. Each photo of the dead that I saw brought me close to tears, but for children’s photos, my heart literally ached and felt like it was going to explode. Living in a place that was shrouded with pain and darkness was suffocating. Even though the sun came out each day, it felt like there was a dark void enveloping the city because everyone was in a sunken mood. We had to find Glinda and put an end to her attacks before the city was ruined beyond saving. Our search for her so far has proven fu

APRILThe ticking clock in the ICU waiting room was the only audible sound.Xander had been taken in for an emergency operation a while ago and we were still waiting to hear back from the doctors.When we arrived at the hospital, he was barely breathing, and it seemed like they might’ve stopped his heart for the surgery because I couldn’t feel even a shred of his presence through the bond. On our way to the hospital, we’d dropped Natalie at one of the safety bunkers where security and magic borders were keeping people safe. If she was here, she’d have been a great distraction for me. And god, I’d do anything to be distracted from this godawful unending pain. My chest fucking hurt. Every nerve in my body was on literal fire. My head was pounding as though a line up of high school bands were in a competition. All I could think of was the pitiful state we’d found Xander in a while ago. The way he looked helpless and near death’s door. The way his blood was like a second skin masking

APRILThe city was a mess. A bloody one.“Natalie, stop using your fucking phone or you’re going to get us killed,” I whispered to my best friend whose face was a mess of dry tears. She glared at me. “If I’m going to die, I need Hector to know that he was the best sex I ever had and I always wished we became more.” I frowned at her, both disturbed and confused that she’d picked that as the most important thing to put in order in a life and death situation. What a freaking clown.“Nat, I’ve told you a thousand times, you’re not going to die,” I bit out, “Nick asked us to stay hidden here and he’ll come get us, and I know he will.”I reminded her of the instruction we’d gotten almost an hour ago when chaos broke out in the city.Apparently, some rogues breached the city’s gates and began to brutally attack every living thing in sight. They've been killing anything in their way and no one is exempt from their wrath.Not women. Not innocents. Not children. Not animals. It was a battle

XANDER Today, just like every other day for the last two weeks, we’d split up to search for Brooke. April was able to fully recover from the effects of the poison she was heartlessly fed by Brooke after a full day or more. Once we were certain that she was in a perfectly healthy state, we decided to go on a hunt for Brooke to make her pay for hurting our precious mate.No one seemed to know where she was. No one had seen her since she ran off that day. Even the city cameras had no footage of her since that day. It was almost like she’d vanished into thin air after that day, but we refused to give up on our search.We even had the authorities officially interrogate everyone she knew, especially those she worked with at her modeling agency, but no one had any reasonable information to share with us that would narrow her search.Even her personal assistant only heard that she was missing from us, he’d assumed she was taking a mental health break when she didn’t come to the office for
