Thalia“Ste—“ I stopped talking when he smiled and waved at me. I let out a sigh of relief when I realized that he didn’t hear anything and was just surprised to see me and that’s all that it was. I didn’t realize how scared and in shock I had been to see him until he caught me in his arms as I collapsed.I almost pushed him off but realized very soon that the professors were watching and the best way to make them believe that Steve and I were a thing so they could let go of the mating thing.“Can you take me out of here? I don’t feel good.” I managed to whisper to Steve.“Why? Did they hurt you? Do I need to report to the Dean of Students?” He asked with concern, lacing his voice. I shook my head. The last thing I want right now is for anyone in the school to be involved.“No, they didn’t do anything wrong. We were just talking and I suddenly felt sick. Can you just take me away from here?” I pleaded with him. He nodded and helped me steady myself. I held on to him and turned aro
Thalia“You should run away while you still can. Oh, wait, you can’t anymore but still. Run.” My inner voice advised and for a second. I thought of taking her advice and just making a run for it but I held my ground and glared at Lucas. Only for a moment down. I lowered my eyes the second our eyes met and his fierce burning eyes met mine.“Sir,” Steve said in a shaking voice. What the fuck? How can he be so scared? I thought he was tough. I mean, he used to act tough and stand up for the whole class whenever we messed up or a professor was trying to be unfair to us. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe I made the wrong choice.“Thalia, let him go,” Lucas growled but I refused.“He is my boyfriend.” I insisted. He tightened his lips Just as Cross got to us. I looked around and saw some students looking at us with interest. I wonder if my lovers turned professors didn’t see that they were drawing attention. Or maybe they just don’t care. They have nothing to lose anyway.“You shouldn’t be with
Thalia I had to take the bus because my car went back like three semesters ago and my parents refused to fix it or get me a new one like they did for my other siblings. I don’t even like thinking about my siblings because they were just as bad as my parents.They hated me. They don’t say it to my face but I know that they hate me. They don’t call me. We don’t have any love between us like other siblings do. They had a rivalry. Two of them but me? Nothing. Nothing at all because I wasn’t competing with them and tried my best to stay off their part even when we were younger.I always got the barest minimum from my parents. The used stuff and worn down shit but I always don’t mind. Even the car I used to drive was a hand-me-down from my sister after she got a new car from my parents. Why? She got married to the perfect man they found for her after she graduated from a university they picked and a profession they chose.“Lia!” I heard Emily’s voice and was glad for the distraction. I a
Thalia “What did you just say?” She asked after a few minutes of complete silence.“You heard me the first time, Lily, I had sex with him.” I repeated. She looked at me in disbelief. She pointed at me.“Pull over.” She ordered. I already expected her to ask me to do that. I slowed down and pulled out of the road.“Repeat what you just said.” “Lily.” I let out. Maybe I should have told her three weeks ago when it happened. She doesn’t really keep things away from me but I tend to not tell her everything. I am not so open with people.“You slept with him but you guys only met today, wait, you have met him before?” I nodded.“When? When did this happen and why am I just finding out? I tell you everything.” She let out. I suddenly felt bad for keeping it all a secret. “Three weeks ago.” “Three weeks? Three whole weeks? Lia? I tell you everything. You couldn’t even tell me that much? Do you even see me as your friend?” She was offended and I kind of understood her. I let out a s
Lucas“Why are you still following me? She already left, you should walk away,” I told the lunatic who thought it was a good idea to follow me back to my office. I don’t like him and I am not trying to hide it. It’s not just me. It goes both ways for us. We have known each other since we were little boys and we have never gotten along. That’s not about to change now.“I am following because clearly, we have something important to discuss. This isn’t the time to act out. I hate you just as much as you hate me but we have a situation at hand that requires us to talk.” I hated the fucker. Today didn’t turn out the way I wanted and seeing him made everything worse. I finally saw my mate again after three whole weeks of not being able to see her and now, not only does she have some dumb human boyfriend, but I also have to deal with the fucker who won’t leave me alone.“I don’t want to talk to you about anything. In case you haven’t noticed.” He didn’t stop following me. I tried to shut
Lucas“I don’t think I have the time you think I have. Why will I go so far just to get under your skin? You are forty, start acting your age and start thinking your age. We have a situation and I am trying to be the logical adult here. I told you not to go after her when she left but you did and made a scene. Do you even think or are you so caveman that you don’t think before you act?” He shot at me. I clenched my fist and growled at him.“Stop doing that.” He warned me. “I don’t listen to you or take orders from you.” I fired at him.“We both don’t take orders from anyone but again, we have a situation. Do you think I want this? No! I don’t want it. I finally found my mate after so many years of waiting and now I find out that she isn’t just my mate. Do you think I am okay? I am not fucking okay but you don’t see me acting all angry and going around creating a scene. We want to protect her from them, not expose her to them. Think!” He yelled at me and for the first time, I actu
CrossI watched him pace around. He was finally getting it. He was acting like he usually does acting before thinking. It’s one of the things I hated about him. In all, I couldn’t stand him and would very much not want to be in this situation right now but I couldn’t change things.If I could, I would go back to that night three weeks ago and make sure that Thalia knew she only belonged to me. That she couldn’t be with anyone else. I didn’t do it and now, I have to live with the consequences.“Why did it have to be him?” I wasn’t the only one pissed by the idea that my mate didn’t belong to me alone. My wolf was too and he has been going crazy inside me. I was in control so he had no choice but to foam inside.Everything happened so fast that it still felt like some weird dream to me even though I knew that it wasn’t a dream. I don’t dream about stuff like this. My dreams were what people call nightmares. This might as well be a nightmare. My mate isn’t just my mate. She’s mated to a
Cross“I can’t let that happen.”I whispered to myself.“Damn well, we can’t.”He heard it even though I said it in a very low voice. Wolves have really good hearing so it wasn’t a shocker that he heard me.“So, you do agree that we can’t let them get to her. That we have to protect her no matter what?”I asked him. He scowled at me but nodded in agreement. We are finally getting somewhere.“What do you want to do?”It funny how he was asking me my plans now when just a while ago, he went crazy because I asked him what he planned to do. Honestly, right now, I don’t have a plan. Yes, I had a plan before. That’s why I applied to lecture in her school, I wanted to be with her.My plan had been simple, find her, ask her out, and make sure she was never out of my sight. They will definitely know she has been mated if they find her and it’s my job to protect her from that. Of course, staying away from her might be the only right way but I can’t stay away from my mate.The three weeks it too
Thalia “Turn it off!” I winced and covered my ears to block out the ringing of a phone that was disturbing my beautiful sleep. I hated being woken by a ringing phone or an alarm that I hadn’t set! Whoever owns the ringing phone better have a good reason for not turning on silent mode before dumping his phone near the bed. It had to be one of those two. Men! Hate and love them at the same time. Even after blocking out the noise, I could still hear the noise. “Lucas? Cross? Turn your bloody phone off or I am going to smash it against a wall!” I yelled out. “Lia, it’s your phone.” Oh shit! I opened my eyes immediately and took the phone from Lucas’s hand. I noted two things, one it was bright outside, and two he was all dressed. Which would only mean. “Oh shit!” I let out and sat up immediately. Looking around like a lost sheep. Did I oversleep again? “Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my fucking God!” I yelled and jumped out of bed. First day back to school and I o
Thalia “No guys but you can have other fun like dancing and drinking moderately. But you can drink as much as you want when you are at home.” Lucas told me. “Okay. You guys don’t need to worry about me clubbing right now because I have to focus on my schoolwork that I have been neglecting recently. I have a lot to do.” I told them. “You are free to do whatever you want within the packs. No unauthorized persons will get into any of the packs so safety won’t be a problem but when you are outside, you have to let us know where you are and you have to come back home early.” I smiled at the rule. A week ago, the rule would have pissed me off but not anymore. They were looking out for me. The council or whatever they called them must still be out there and they might be trying to get me. Not just them, my parents too. They won’t just back out like that. If I am careless, they might catch me unaware and the guys might not be available to come to my rescue so for my own good, it’s
Thalia “Okay, hit me with what you have for me.” I told them. “We want to spend time with you freely without the weekly thing over our head which means it’s left for you to pick whoever and wherever you want to spend time and we will accept it. It doesn’t matter how you do it.” Lucas explained. I knew what he was saying and what they were offering but it didn’t make complete sense to me. What if I have a favorite and decide that I want to spend all my time with him? Okay, that would mean choosing and I already promised myself that I wouldn’t choose between them. Still, I didn’t see how it would work. I don’t want to move from one house to the next every freaking day. I mean, if I want to equally see them, I would have to make it a day here and a day there, right? I don’t how they think that will work. “Can you explain more?” I asked them instead of jumping on the train and arriving at the wrong conclusions. “It’s easy. You pick where you want to be. If it’s here then we wil
Thalia “Something important.” His answer made me even more anxious. “What kind of important something?” I asked him, I couldn’t figure out what could be so important to discuss that would have Cross come over for dinner with us. I wanted to think positively but no positive reason crossed my mind. I couldn’t be losing any of them, right? Not after our night together. I wanted them both with me for a long time. I refuse to choose. If they are going to make me choose, I might cry. I might go as far as throwing things at them. They shouldn’t put me through the heartbreaking experience of having to choose between them especially not after showing me how good it could be with the three of us together. I won’t settle for that. “Why are you making that face? You don’t even know what we are going to talk to you about yet. Don’t make that face, ma’am, I promise that you will like it.” He assured me. I didn’t know if I should easily believe him. Not like he had a reason to lie. If he s
Thalia “Cross!” I yelled, got out of the chair, and ran to him. I threw myself into his arms. It has only been a day without him and I missed him so badly. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my hair. He obviously missed me too. “Hey, baby, I got this for you.” He said and handed me the bouquet he held. I took it from him, lifted myself to my tiptoe, and planted a kiss on his lips. “Thank you. We were just about to eat.” I said and turned to see my other lover watching us. I made a face at him. Only he didn’t get me flowers and only he could answer when I asked him if he saw me as a prey. I don’t know about werewolves but to humans, being seen as prey was offensive in a lot of ways. “Did he do something bad before I got here? I can scold him for you.” Cross offered. I shook my head at him. I didn’t want him to scold Lucas. I will do it myself. “Okay, I offered to help.” Cross pressed and took his head directly opposite his former rival and new friend. It was crazy
Thalia “Baby? Baby? Wake up we are home.” I opened my eyes at Lucas’s voice and blinked to clear sleep off my eyes. I looked around and we weren’t in the car anymore. We were in the car a few minutes ago and I only closed my eyes for a brief moment. How are we already back at the house? Does that mean I slept the whole of the trip back home? That can’t be. I spent the whole of last night sleeping even though I didn’t wake up on time. Also, Lucas didn’t wake me up this morning until ten am. That means I have gotten over twenty-four hours of sleep already. Almost forty-eight hours of sleep, if I am being honest.Still, I fell asleep in the car a few minutes after we hit the highway and woke up hours later. It has to be hours later because it takes at least four hours to drive back. The truth is, I wasn’t tired at all. I didn’t feel tired yet I was sleeping so much.“How long did I sleep for and why didn’t you wake me?” I asked Lucas. He even carried me into the bedroom and changed m
Lucas “She is beautiful.” My wolf commented. I nodded in agreement. She is so beautiful and she sleeps so beautifully. I left her in the living room to go change the bedding because I didn’t want her to sleep in last night's bedding. I came back to meet her snoring softly and I just stood there, watching her sleep. The diva didn’t get tired and just kept begging and asking us for more. Last night, I got what I wanted and it was way beyond how I imagined. Thalia was so sweet last night and she didn’t get tired. She took everything we gave her with ease. I didn’t even think she could take us for hours but she did. She matched both of us and even drained us. Thalia had been a pro last night with the way she handled our cocks and how she was able to go multiple rounds without getting tired or wanting out. We told her she could tell us to stop at any time but she never said the word “stop” she only asked for more. I wanted to ask her if she has done it before but I don’t th
Thalia “You did it with him?” I let out a little too loud. I looked around and remembered that I was alone in the suite. Thank God. “She did. She spent last night with him.” Emily revealed. It was my turn to look at Elena with pride. “You became a grown woman.” She laughed nervously. “Wait, how did you meet him?” I asked when I remembered that we were supposed to still be on our trip last night. “You are not the only one who got a man who traveled hours to come be with you.” Emily answered for her. “Valid. I want details girl.” I told Elena who went red with embarrassment. It was her first time so she was allowed to be shy. Some of us have been having sex since we were teenagers. Don’t judge. “We have to hear yours first, girl! You took two alphas. I think you have the juicer story to tell.” I rolled my eyes at Emily’s words. She just wanted to hear mine because Lena probably already told her about her time with her mate. “I think my story will be so much
Thalia “Your dinner is here.” Lucas announced five minutes later while I was still texting the girls. I flashed him a smile and responded to a text Elena said before dropping my phone to eat. I didn’t realize how hungry I was until I started eating. I didn’t stop until I finished the whole food and drank water. “Do you want me to get more? I can call them.” I shook my head at Lucas’s question and flashed him a smile. “Okay, I will just get this away.” “Thanks.” I said as he wheeled the dishes I used away. I picked up my phone again and laughed when I saw their response to what I sent earlier. They wanted to know all about my time with Lucas and they both think I was the reason they were getting a day off. I laughed it off. No way I am giving them that detail. Also, if they find out that Cross also came, they might leave me alone until I go into full details about what happened last night. Right now, I don’t think I can tell them because I still haven’t fully processed what hap
