Lucas I had a terrible night. I hated it. I couldn’t sleep. I kept thinking of the things that that bastard could be doing to my mate and I couldn’t bring myself to sleep. I hated how I felt but I couldn’t shake off the jealous feeling. It was pointless.“Mate.” My wolf wasn’t helping either. He has refused to take a break since we left Thalia with Cross. As if it wasn’t enough that I couldn’t sleep, my wolf spent the whole night nagging me. Twice I even had to walk around my house trying to tire myself out but it didn’t work. “Mate.” “Shut the fuck up,” I cursed and downed the remaining of my morning coffee. It usually worked to make me feel ready to face the day but today, it refused to have the desired effect. All I wanted to do was call Thalia and find out how she was feeling.“Like she would want to speak to you after how you acted yesterday.” I hated how my wolf was not on my side. As if I was the only one jealous yesterday. I had every reason to be jealous. How can I come
Thalia“Lia?”Fuck! I thought when I heard Steve call my name. All day, I have been avoiding him and hoping that he doesn’t try to talk to me and I succeeded until now. I guess I ran out of luck. I should have gone home the second the class ended but I wanted to check something out at the school library.“Are you and Steve close?”Elena has been by my side all day. She sat with me in all of today's classes. I told her she could go ahead without me, but she refused and told me that she promised her Alpha that she would stay by my side. I pointed out that she can’t really help me if someone tries to kidnap me or something.She Literally laughed in my face and told me not to judge her by how delicate and pretty she looked. I'm not going to lie, she said it in a very convincing way.“Yes, he is my boyfriend.”I said and waved at Steve as he walked fast towards us. I could tell that Elena was shocked at my words. I don’t even know why I told her that when Cross already knew the truth about
Thalia “What the f—“ I didn’t get to finish what I had to say, I was pulled by Lucas and slammed into his chest. I gasped and tried to get away from him in an effort to prevent anyone from seeing us together but the man was bigger and stronger than me. It was useless fighting against him. “Let me go,” I voiced in anger. He didn’t answer instead growled loudly which sent a shiver down my body. What did I do? I shouldn’t have provoked him, now people are going to find out and it was all my fault. “She is not going anywhere with you.” He growled. I made to say something but then I realized that he was talking to Steve. I twisted my neck and saw Steve getting off the ground. The angry wolf pushed him until he fell. What a loser. “Let me go, professor! You have no right to tell my boyfriend that!” He growled when I called Steve my boyfriend and tightened his hold on me. It was bad enough that he was being possessive of me in public and even worse that he didn’t give a fuck
Thalia“What the fuck was that all about and why do you know Alpha Lucas enough for him to act that way?”I heard Elena’s question loud and clear but I chose not to respond until what she said clicked. I stopped walking and turned to her.“What did you just call him?”I questioned. She paused and looked around before turning back to me.“Alpha Lucas?”“Oh shit. Don’t tell me that fucker is an alpha too just like Cross!”I let out a little louder than I had intended. I looked around to make sure no one heard me and saw Lucas still watching us. He hasn’t even moved from where everything played out a while ago. He had an arrogant and overall dominant stance that made me look away the moment our eyes met. It all kind of makes sense now. I finally figured out why he is so full of himself and why he acts like he owns the world and everyone.They were both alphas. The one time I decided to be freaky, I fucked two men two nights in a roll and then they ended up being wolves. As if that wasn’t
Thalia “That’s why he asked you to follow me around, isn’t it? It wasn’t because I needed protection but because he wanted to make sure I wasn’t seeing other men! Wow, what a fucking sick bastard and you are a fucking bitch for agreeing to something like that! I wasn’t done. There was so much I wanted to say to her right now. How could she say yes to watching my every move? What kind of a woman does that to another woman? Also, Cross. I told him I wasn’t really dating Steve so why did he still feel the need to still assign Elena to watch my every move? “I don’t know what you are accusing me of right now. I just asked a question. No need for you to be so disrespectful towards my alpha and me. Mind you, he is your alpha too, and your mate.” I already knew where her loyalty stands so I wasn’t surprised when she started to defend him and herself. “You just said that you will report everything that happened today to him. What do you expect me to think?” I fired at her. “I don’t
Thalia.“I am mated to Lucas too. Cross knows about it just like he knows that my relationship with Steve was fake.” She blinked, trying to make sense of what I just said. I gave her time for it to sink in. “That’s a lie, right? You just made that up, right? I mean, I get that you might not be dating that and I am happy that you are not but there is no way tha—“ “I am not lying. You can call your alpha or something. This.” I said and pulled my top to the side for her to see the mark. I leaned in and showed her where Lucas had marked me and then turned to the other side.“The marks might have faded but it’s the truth and they both know. Both found out yesterday. Why do you think Lucas is in our school?” I explained. She shook her head, looked at me, looked away, and then looked at me again. She opened and closed her mouth multiple times. “That’s n---“ “It is, why do you think he was so mad earlier? Cross said he is a jealous freak and I made a mistake earlier. I shouldn’t hav
Thalia“What?” I asked again. Elena smiled.“I know it’s a lot to take in but yeah, if you are mated to both of them then you are Luna of both packs which means that you are the heart of both packs because a Luna is the heart of the pack. That’s why I said you might be the one destined to bring both packs back together.”Now. That’s a lot of new information that I didn’t know.“I thought you said only alphas and betas have positions in the pack.” She nodded. “Then how?” “You see, there are two positions until the alpha finds his mate, and as you know, our alpha just turned forty, we all thought he wouldn’t find his mate well until he told me about you so yeah. That’s why but now that he has found you, you complete the whole piece and even have your job cut out for you already.” “I stared at her in confusion.“The fuck are you on about?” I let out. “You are the heart of the pack. The soul, the one who brings life, love, and peace to the pack.” “So, I am supposed to put a stop
Thalia “There’s enough alcohol at your house or do you want to come over to mine?” Elena asked me when we drove into the pack estate.“My house?” She nodded.“Your mate’s home is your home too.” Aha, right. I live with Cross now, at least for the week and yeah, the pack is my new home. I am Luna and of the pack and I am bonded forever to two men who are alphas of their respective packs. Yeah, I really need that alcohol.“My house, that way you won’t have to drag my drunk ass over. I can be very heavy,” I told her. She laughed.“You have a really nice laugh. You are very beautiful. You are practically a goddess.” I couldn’t stop myself from complimenting her. The car came to a stop in front of Cross’s house and Elena turned to me. “You are beautiful too. I mean, I have always thought so. Not to mention that you are super smart.” I could say the same for her, she was super smart too. Technically, I saw her as my rival because she was always one step ahead of me in everything. Sh
Thalia“You beat up a guy over two decades younger than you. You should be ashamed and hide your head in shame. You don’t fucking get to talk right now Cross because I am fucking disappointed in you. I expected something like that from him but you? He was nineteen and we were just fucking talking! Think about what you did and be ashamed of yourself.” I yelled at each word to make sure he got every one of them. At least he looked uncomfortable. That’s not enough, he should go bury his head in shame somewhere far away.“He’s nineteen?” I turned to Lucas at his words. He was no better than Cross. I am sure if he had walked in on us talking first, he would have beat the poor guy up too.“You didn’t stop him! I told you to stop him but you let him just keep hitting him. You are just as bad as him. I don’t like you both very much right now.” I told him firmly.“Can we talk about this more at home?” Really? At home? What home?“No, I am not going back to your house. I have decided to sto
Thalia “How could you do that to him? What did he do to you?” I let out.“He was hitting on you.” I couldn’t believe it. That’s it? That’s why he pushed him like that and beat him up. I opened my mouth to speak but couldn’t get any words out. I was too stunned to speak. Lucas took that moment to appear.“I took care of him and paid for his hospital bills. You don’t have to worry about him.” He didn’t say that to me. He didn’t even look at me. He said that to Cross and the fucker nodded. I pointed from one to the other.“You both came here to beat an innocent guy up and send him to the hospital? How is that legal?” I asked them.“I didn’t beat him up, he did.”Lucas said, pointing at Cross who fucking nodded. He didn’t even look remorseful. Wow, I must really have bad taste in men.“Why are you two even here? How did you find me?” I asked the most important question.“Did you really think that we wouldn’t find you? I told you to stay at home. Why didn’t you listen to me?” Cross
Thalia.“Oh no.” I cried out and tried to stop him but he was so fucking fast. Before I could reach him, he already reached my new friend, lifted him up, and started punching him relentlessly. I ran towards them and tried to push him away but he was bigger than me. By now, all the clubbers were no longer dancing, the music stopped completely.No one attempted to stop him. They were just looking and some were even on their phone, clearly recording. Fuck! “Cross! Stop it! What the fuck is wrong with you?” I yelled at Cross but he didn’t even move. It was as if he didn’t hear me. I tried to stop him again but it was pointless. I looked around and saw Lucas. I ran towards him without thinking and grabbed his arms.“Stop him! He is going to kill him.” I yelled at him but the fucker just pulled me behind him. I pushed him hard.“Stop him!” I yelled at him again and hit him hard but he didn’t make a move to stop Cross who was still busy hitting my new friend. I ran back to him and thi
Thalia“Are you having fun?” I cheered loudly so that Emily could hear me over the music. She nodded enthusiastically. I smiled and reached for our hand as we danced together on the filled dance floor. There were so many young people here too having fun for the weekend before the beginning of another school or work life.It was crazy that I even feared I would be unsafe while I walked in here. Funny, I let their words get to me. I was safe and having fun like every other young person in the room right now. The smiles, the laughter, and the mix of smells and sweat were everything. The adrenaline rush. It just felt right.Nothing could possibly go wrong.“Do you want to have another shot?” I called out to Emily and made a driving gesture just in case she didn’t hear me. She nodded, and her smile made me realize that she was already drunk. I wasn’t drunk, but I wanted to get drunk. We already called for a designated driver like we always do. We might not look it, but we are really good
Lucas “Get out of my way you fucking idiot!” I yelled at a car going so slow even though there wasn’t any traffic ahead of it. “Fuck you!” The driver in the car called out. I swore under my breath as I moved past him and made sure to give him the middle finger. If I wasn’t in a hurry, I would have found out about him and dealt with him. “You are going too fast!” The passenger in my car with me let out and I glared at him angrily. Why did I even agree to go pick him up? The time I spent going over to his pack would have been spent looking for my mate. “Shut the fuck up and make sure we are going in the right direction,” I fired at him. I was almost going crazy with worry and the fucker didn’t even look fazed. I shouldn’t have gone to pick him up. I should have focused on checking all the nightclubs around. Thalia turned off her phone so none of us could reach her and right now, we are tracking her car. Hopefully, we will find her safe and sound. I was fucking tensed
Cross “What do you mean you lost her? She has been with you for what? Two minutes and you already lost her?” I yelled out. I couldn’t believe he nagged and talked me into the one-week thing only for him to lose her just a few hours after she arrived at his house. “You lost her too, stop acting like she didn’t bail on you too.” “Yes, but not on the first day and you know why she left! I damn well know that it’s not for the same reason because your horny ass won’t let her leave,” Even thinking about it made me jealous. I hated it so much. “I didn’t stop you from having her and she was clearly ready and willing. Again, don’t blame me.” Lucas yelled at me. “Who said that I am blaming you? You lost her! You couldn’t even properly take care of her and ensure she stayed safe but you wanted so much to have her with you.” I should have expected it to happen. I blame too because I shouldn’t have hung up until I managed to talk her out of leaving the house but I had been too b
Thalia“You are right. I already did that and I would very much want to do it again but those two won’t do me and I hate it so much. I feel like I am the only one wanting them so much. I don’t even know why they aren’t feeling it too.” I let out begrudgingly.“Feeling what?” Emily asked with interest. I didn’t know how best to describe how I was feeling to her without sounding like a whore who couldn’t do without sex. I have tried to act like I didn’t feel the way I did but I feel it and there was no hiding it from myself.I felt the change in me since the first time both of them walked into my class. If I am being honest, I felt the charge from the moment I slept with both of them. It only got intense the more time I spent with them. I was in heat or something.I had never thought so much about having sex until I met them. Now all I can think about is being taken by them yet none of them want the same thing. I don’t even know if any of it made any sense but that’s just how I felt.
Thalia “Jack! It's so good to see you.” I told him when I walked up to him after parking my car in the space that it would be in until I came back for it. “You got a new car. A pretty expensive one.” Jack observed. I smiled and nodded.“Can I leave it here? My friend is coming to pick me up.” He nodded even before I could finish. I smiled and hugged him in thanks. I saw Emily’s car drive into the building and bid Jack goodbye after making sure that I locked the car properly and got everything that I needed from inside.“Why did you want us to meet here?” Emily asked when I got into her car. I smiled and gestured for her to drive out. She looked at me in confusion.“I came to drop my car. We can use yours. Let’s go.” I told her. She looked even more confused but started her car and turned it. I waved Jack goodbye and blew him a kiss. He laughed and shook his head.“Why are we leaving your car behind?” Emily asked as soon as we were out of Pretense. I sighed.“I didn’t want to b
Thalia“There’s only so much I can take. Open this gate right this moment or you will all regret it. Not just you but every member of your so-called pack! You don’t want to deal with humans and the cops. You don’t want to deal with my parents either. Look them up! Look up the Sinclairs! My parents will have you all locked up and your pack will be nonexistent if you don’t let me go!” I threatened the buffy security men. I hate bringing my family into my issues or threatening people but these fuckers refuse to listen to me. I have tried every other means to get them to open the gate but they have refused each one of them. If threatening them would get me what I wanted, so be it.Lucas, that fucker. I scoffed at the thought of him. Did he really think just because he told me that he knew the law I would stop? What? He wanted me to go back to the house? Never! If he cared a little about me, he would have stayed at home today not just dropped me off and dumped me immediately. Packing mee
