Rejected And Claimed By Her Trio Mates chapter 84
AmoraQuinton called this place a “cage,”and that’s exactly what it feels like. I’m like a trapped animal, and I hate it.The small jail building at one edge of the village houses three cells. I’m in the one farthest away from the entry door, my view of the doorway partially obscured by the thick metal bars that run from floor to the ceiling around my cramped cell.I sit on a cot barely long enough for me to stretch out full-length. The only other object in my cell is a rusted metal bucket stained by ungodly fluids, and the two cells beside mine are empty, their tiny beds made up as if they’re shitty hotel rooms.The emptiness of the place doesn’t bode well for my future. Quinton may take prisoners often enough that he needs a jail in his pack lands, but it appears he doesn’t keep them long.At least the scratchy gray wool blanket from the cot is big enough to encompass my entire body. It chases away some of the cold, but for the most part, this stone cottage is as frigid as the world

I cling to that memory of kneeling in the woods while they callously cut themselves off from me, and I use it to shove away the last little bit of emotion vibrating between us. I embrace the void; grip it like a life raft on stormy seas.In the absence of phantom affection for Frost, my anger steps up.I rouse all the fury I have over everything the three of them have done to me and let it wash over me, erasing anything else I have left.“I’m going to kill you,” I growl, wrapping the fingers of one hand around the metal bar. I squeeze it like I want to squeeze his fucking neck.Our gazes lock, and I fight back the rising sensations inside me. Not the mate bond, but something else. I don’t want to have feelings for him. For any of them.The only feeling I want to have for them is hatred and the driving desire to see them dead.“I’ll kill you all,” I repeat, leaning into the bars, letting my anger burn in my gaze. If I say it over and over like a mantra, maybe I can will it into existen

AmoraI waketo the sound of the main door opening, along with a fresh blast of cold wind that brings the scent of salted meat to my nose.My stomach rumbles, and I sit up and rub away the sleep from my eyes, making sure the blanket is still covering all my naked bits. I’m not interested in giving a strange man a show this early in the morning.But it’s not a man. It’s a woman. She carries a metal bowl in one hand and a bundle of fabric in the other, a key dangling from her finger. She’s older, with graying hair, a thin, stooped form, and green eyes that seem to miss nothing. When she reaches my cell, she uses her key to unlock the door in the bars.“Breakfast,” she says in a scratchy voice, shoving the bowl through. “And clothes.”I slowly drop my feet to the concrete, side-eying her.She chuckles. “Girl, I’m here to feed you and get you warm, not kill you.”“No, but your alpha will,” I say caustically. I ease off the cot, my gaze on the bowl.The old woman shrugs. “Maybe. At least yo

“She was stupid enough to walk away from the possibility of ultimate power,” Quinton says. “Trying to stop me from bringing the shadow realm to earth is the wrong move. First, she attempts to send shadow beings after my men. Then she sends you, a weak, average wolf. The woman is a moron. Of course she needs protection. But she lost the privilege of mine when she turned against me.”“I’m sure she’s devastated,” I say wryly.I can read between the lines here. Maybe it’s because I understand men, but I can fill in the details of what really happened. He found a way to access some kind of power from the shadow realm through whatever means. He used that power to “create” Kian, Malix, and Frost, of course, which is why they’re formed of shadow realm magic. But that wasn’t enough for the alpha. He wanted more, so he went searching for more—and when his little feral shifters grew up, they became a part of that plan, too.Quinton’s obsession with finding a way to bring the shadow realm to eart

Quinton bursts into harsh laughter and releases my hair. “Are you serious? Felicity doesn’t know shit about the shadow realm or how to use the magic. The small amount of magic she has access to isn’t enough to even properly kill my men. I made them with my stone. I’m master of the shadow’s power. She is nothing.”I shrug, swallowing down the coppery taste of blood that still coats my mouth. “I don’t know, I’d say she’s something, since you’re clearly scared of what she’s capable of. If you weren’t, you wouldn’t have locked me away and tried to pry her plans from me when you thought I worked for her.”Quinton growls in fury, then hauls back for another punch.I let my body go loose and move with the force of the blow this time, lessening the impact. My captors hold me tight, which keeps me from falling to the floor. Nausea roils in my stomach and more blood wells in my mouth. Still, I force a laugh, just to piss him off more.“Lock her back up,” the alpha snarls. “I’ll decide what to d

AmoraI open my eyes in bed, blinking into the soft darkness of my motel room.Something woke me—some noise or movement. I sit up, the blankets falling away from me, then shiver as I realize I’m naked.Frost stands in the corner, his pale eyes glittering. He’s focused on me, his body vibrating with barely restrained tension. A pastel desert print rests on the wall over his head, though it’s watery and insubstantial. More like the suggestion of a painting than the actual thing. Frost’s tattoos wave gently over his skin, just as insubstantial in the darkness. We stare at each other as headlights pass the window and illuminate the sharp angles of his face. Chiseled like granite.We’ve already done this, I think, confused. The room in Oscura, when I woke up to him watching me right before the shadow attacked.Although, I wasn’t naked at the time.I glance around, looking for the shadow that almost killed us both through the poison, but it’s nowhere to be seen. Movement passes in my periph

“Shit!” I roll to the side, slamming into the bar-covered wall right as the shadow’s arm-like tendril stabs into the mattress where I’d been laying only seconds before.Before the shadow can untangle itself from the blankets, I tuck and roll around it, hitting the floor on my feet. I don’t have much room to move in this tiny cage, but I dance away, putting my back to the bars as I glance wildly around, like a weapon will have magically appeared while I fucking slept.The only things in this cell beside me and the shadow are the piss bucket and the blanket. I crouch and grab the handle of the bucket, thankful the old lady came back and dumped it after Quinton’s visit earlier. I swing it wide at the shadow as it twists around and darts toward me..The bucket goes right through it.Fuck me. God fucking dammit!Even a weapon can’t help me now. This isn’t my first rodeo with these things, and it appears that just like the last two times, I have no ability to fight back against these formle

MalixA familiar screamof rage barrels through my dreams.I wake up in the space of a split second and rocket out of bed, still half asleep even as adrenaline surges through me. I’m on my feet before I’m even fully awake, because I know that scream. I’d know it anywhere, even in my fucking sleep, apparently.A second scream draws me into instant alertness. The sound is faint, but it pierces through me like a knife.Amora.I break into a sprint, slamming through my bedroom door and into the living room.I’m coming.Kian and Frost emerge from their rooms right on my heels. I know, somehow, that they heard her too—even though it shouldn’t be possible for any of us to hear her this far on the outskirts of the village and far away from the jail. I can guess maybe it’s a remnant of connection left over from the broken mate bond, or maybe our hearing has just gotten more sensitive as time has gone on. But the truth is, it doesn’t make any sense.None of us say a word, nor do we bother stoppi

Fuck. Could Amora even survive what exists in the other realm? Unease prickles up my spine at how close we just came to losing her.We need to take those shadows out, I tell my brothers. As fast as we can.We’re yanked back into combat as several of Quinton’s wolves burst into our little circle, breaking up the party.I pounce on the nearest Blood Moon wolf, taking him down to the ground, while Malix and Frost tag team a shadow shifter. Picking up the wolf with my teeth, I fling him at two more advancing wolves, taking them down like pins in a bowling lane.When I glance back up, Malix and Frost are having trouble with their shadow shifter. The beast is big, and he must’ve been pumped full of more shadow magic than the rest, because he fights almost like a Berserker, wild and brutal. I leap over one of the fallen wolves and head toward them to help, only to stop cold as Amora screams my name.Kian!Whirling around, I find her darting over the uneven terrain in a mad zigzag pattern whi

KianJust like thenight when Quinton nearly executed our mate with a bullet to the head, I don’t hesitate.I’m in the air a split second after my old alpha’s paws have left the dirt. I intercept his leap and slam into him in mid-air, angling so that I hit his head with my chest. He’s so massive that it feels like a rock wall slamming into me, and I huff out a pained breath. If I were any smaller or weaker, I have no doubt his skull would have broken a few bones in my torso.Quinton flies away from me while I fall to the ground, winded. I barely manage to land on all fours as he skids away from me, kicking up dirt and stones and clumps of grass. All around me, chaos breaks loose as the Silver Crest wolves and Blood Moon pack launch into an all-out war.In the very short half second I have before Quinton stands, I glance around and consider our odds. We’re on Felicity’s turf now, and there are more of us physically than there are of them. Both will give us an advantage. Unfortunately, t

AmoraFuck. Not Quinton. Please, don’t let it be Quinton. We’re not fucking ready.I’m not sure who moves first, but within seconds of the piercing howl outside, the four of us are racing across the dark, silent cabin toward the front door.Kian reaches the door first and flings it open, launching himself out into the night with Malix and Frost right behind him. As I come even with the door and prepare to shift, I pause for a fraction of a second, mesmerized by the sight of them leaping from the small front stoop.They trail black smoke as they shift, morphing like shadows. It’s beautiful in a deadly sort of way, as if they’re more than limbs and torsos and heads, but something more metaphysical. More fluid. A macabre dance of shadows.Then they land on the dusty front lawn in full shadow wolf form and take off. I hurry to follow behind, letting my own shift take over my body in the split second after I leap off the porch stoop.Another howl lights up the night, and I put on a burst o

AmoraI surfacefrom a dreamless sleep to the deep, dark of night, cocooned by the warmth of the three men sleeping around me.I’m on my back, completely pinned in by them—something that, once upon a time, would have sent alarm bells clanging through my head. Instead, it’s peaceful and comforting, if a little too warm.The ceiling is barely visible in the blackness, small cracks in the paint standing out like spider webs made of ink. I take a couple of deep breaths, staring up at them as I try to figure out where I stand. How I feel.The past few weeks still weigh on my shoulders, although I imagine that’s not something that’s just going to go away. Things still aren’t good here. We lost against Quinton, and I’m not naïve enough to think he won’t retaliate. Felicity is dead, and that’s a pretty permanent problem that’s going to throw her whole pack into a state of flux for a while.On the other hand, for the first time in a while, I’m okay. Even if the external world is chaos, my inter

In this moment, it’s just me and my men.Finally, Malix lifts his head and drops a kiss to the tip of my nose. “God, I love fucking you,” he murmurs.“Good.” I chuckle. “Because I’ve got lots of plans for more of this.”He waggles his eyebrows. “Dirty girl. You really are my fated mate.”I breathe out another laugh at the idea that my dirty mind is the true proof that we’re a fated match, shaking my head and grinning at him as he draws back, his cock sliding out of me.Frost, Malix, and I all look toward Kian next.The final piece of the puzzle. My third mate.He’s kneeling on the bed beside me, and when I reach for him, he comes willingly. He settles between my legs, his cock hard and thick. But he doesn’t slide into me right away. Instead, he trails one hand down my stomach, and all four of us watch the path of his fingers as they move lower and lower. When he reaches my pussy, he dips two fingers inside. I moan at the feeling, and heat flashes in his eyes.“You look so stunning lik

His gold-rimmed eyes gleam darkly, as if he knows exactly what I’m doing—trying to get a rise out of him. But the heated possessiveness never wavers in his expression as he gives me an answer.“Because I want to look at you. I want my brothers to see what’s theirs. What’s ours.”Oh.Oh fuck.I didn’t expect his answer to turn me on so much, but after everything that just happened between us in the bathroom, every word he just spoke is loaded with meaning.So I don’t push back against his order, staying still just like he told me to and allowing the three men to stare down at me. Frost reaches down to grip his cock, and I wonder if he’s squeezing himself to get a little relief or to try to get his arousal under control. Maybe a bit of both.That thought makes me whimper softly, and although I make no move to reach for the feral shifters, I can’t resist reaching down to slide one hand between my legs.“Shit, kitty,” Malix chokes out as I use my fingertips to spread my pussy lips, giving

“Fuck prophecies,” I repeat as I swipe at the tears threatening to crest over my eyelashes. “I make my own fate. We’ll make our own fate. Together. And it won’t end in murder. Got it?” I jam my finger into Kian’s chest and cut a glare toward Frost. “We aren’t going to go down like that. Not like them. I couldn’t stand it. I can’t even stand the thought of… of hurting you or killing you. Jesus. I can’t believe I ever tried—”Suddenly, Frost’s arm snakes out and hooks around my waist. He yanks me to him, my arms crushed between us as my fingers still cling to my towel, and his lips cover mine, cutting off my rant.There’s a salty, spicy taste to his skin, and when his lips part in that tentative way of his, I’m surrounded by the familiar scent of his body. Warmth unfurls in my belly, heating my skin, and I tilt my face up to his, opening to his kiss.It’s soft at first, but then he catches my face in his hands and deepens the kiss, his tongue sliding against mine with deliberate possess

AmoraHeat risesin my eyes as I flip the water on in the shower and climb inside. I don’t even wait for the water to warm, and the shock of cold zings through me, giving me a rush of adrenaline to chase away the sheer exhaustion that’s settled over my bones. The cold quickly fades, replaced by lukewarm water. Another twist of the pipes gives me the scalding temperature I need to ease the emotional turmoil I feel.Weeks of grime slosh off my body beneath the shower head while my tears disappear into the water on my face. I dump shampoo on my hair and scrub vigorously with my fingernails, scratching harder than necessary. If I focus on the little pinpricks of pain, maybe I can get the sight of Quinton standing over Felicity’s body out of my head.If only for a moment.His mate.His mate.How could he do that?I turn, ducking my head under the water to rinse out the suds. I grab the bar of soap off the ledge beside me and lather my hands, then use my nails again to scrub at my face.How

So we travel quickly, digging deep into our energy reserves to race headlong across state lines. Micro-naps and brief pauses to eat or drink are the only breaks we allow, and surprisingly, nobody falls behind. I assume the weaker shifters are still running on pure adrenaline.Most of the adrenaline has faded by the time we cross the state line into Wyoming, but it doesn’t matter. We keep pushing anyway.When we finally reach the Silver Crest pack’s boundaries two days later, a heavy feeling falls over the group. Felicity’s shifters slow, as if dreading to bring the news of her death to those left back home.Many of the wolves limp or nurse wounds that have yet to fully heal, and it doesn’t take more than a glance to understand every one of them is completely demoralized by what happened. It’s late in the day, and although the last rays of the sun paint the buildings with a warm, glowing light, despair hangs around us like a weight in the air.When pack members begin to emerge from the
