Christos.

That night, sleeping was out of it and I did not make any attempt to even go close to the bed. Nurturing my glass of whiskey, I stared pensively into space while ignoring my heavy heart.

It was a long time before I realised I was no longer alone. Looking to my left hand side, I saw not just my Beta, Gamma and Delta watching me, but to my surprise my fourth and fifth soldiers were also present.

Knowing full well that I was not ready to share my thoughts, I glanced away after a brief connecting flash at them.

My wolf was still not talking and that’s adding to my heartache. I could feel his presence somewhere back there but he’s not willing or able to come close and share my sorrow with me.

Unable to contain a feeling of betrayal, I sipped at my whiskey, knowing I was not totally surprised to see my men around me. They are never far from me even in the human world and they always know when I am not in the best of mood.

This time is no different and during the moment of brief ac

    Christos.My men all looked at me without saying any more word. But then.“I am sorry, but from your words, she is not acknowledging you as a prospective mate? Does that mean she doesn't like you?” My Gamma pressed for more information and I winced visibly.What a dumbass Gamma! Can’t he be more kind with his words?“Shut up, Gabriel. You are not helping the situation.” My best friend and Beta finally intervened and I walked slowly back to my chair.“What are we going to do, Boss?” Always preferring to listen and observe, Joe is the quietest of my men and the fact that he found it important enough now to volunteer a word shows he is also concerned and disturbed.Which is not surprising. The topic of Luna is nothing to joke about. Especially when it has to do with a stubborn human mate.“I am working on it and I believe she is coming around. We are lovers already but according to her, she is not willing to act more on it or give a second chance.” I acknowledged with a grimace. What a s

    Christos.Looking at him now, I would say as a matter of fact, I am sure the only thing he has ever had to work for was this position as the Gamma. It had not come as a surprise though when he proved himself to be the third most powerful at the academy we all attended. We had all known that beneath that beautiful charming exterior, lurks a hard fighting warrior. Which is why many of the smart men are always weary around him, they know that charming laid back facet is basically to hide the real man beneath.So no, it is better if my unsuspecting stubborn mate does not meet my Gamma for now. Especially when she is so adamant about disobeying me. Who is to say she will not use him to make me more frustrated?Unable to stop myself from briefly imagining the scenario, I felt a sweat coming on from within and I had to quickly shut down that line of thought.Sending the innocent looking Gabriel an unsuspecting glare, I was now glad I punched his smooth looking jaw. Even though I knew it’s ju

    Becca.Of course there dramas had not stopped me from doing my thing, though after then I tried to limit the heavy stuff. At least when we are outside in the presence of others.“I will do what I feel is necessary, son.” I replied stubbornly at the moment and they groaned loudly and simultaneously as they followed me into the big mall where we usually come to do our once a month shopping spree.Walking down the aisle with my excited kids besides me, I ignored their loud whispers as they both planned the best way to push their interests.Pretending not to see their signs, I picked a favourite brand of cereal as I read the label, making sure it was the correct one.“What do you guys think? Should we pick a few cans of these or would you prefer to go for another type of cereal?” Knowing it’s possible they were tired of a particular flavour, I pushed the decision to them.“Hmm, this is okay Mum, let us go for it.” My son suggested and I could see they were too distracted to care at the mo

    Becca.I decided to play it safe and I started off softly.“Tell me, with whom would you like to have that with? I can’t think of anyone that I would entrust the welfare of my kids to, even for a night, kids. Except for your Cindy aunt of course.” I ended softly, hoping they would grab at the straw thrown to them.“Cindy Aunty?” My daughter’s expression was aghast and I saw her brother’s face contort in equal grimace.Okay! An adult is definitely out of the question.“Okay, you don’t want a sleepover at your Aunt's place. But pardon my curiosity, okay? What’s wrong with a sleepover at my friend’s place?” I murmured as I waved them forward in a push to keep going.At this rate we will spend the rest of today here without any success at shopping. Honestly, I can’t imagine why they would choose this place of all places for a talk such as this.‘Probably because they knew you would be too distracted to argue and ignore them.’ A tiny voice chuckled and I had to smile wryly. Considering how

    Becca.After a long minute of quietness that seemed like hours, I raised my head to give them a stern look. Never will I bow to their demands in this way. Else, they will always use this emotional tool every time I refuse to grant their request.Opening my mouth to tell them outright that there shall be no sleepover, not at Christos Fernandez’s house anyways, I saw a flash of colour from the corner of my eyes and I turned to it distractedly.Was that not the same person I thought I saw earlier? Turning more fully to confirm my suspicion, I raised my head and my gaze clashed hotly and directly with a familiar eyes.I could feel the shock from the other person even as the same shock went through my own heart and brain.Never would I have thought it would happen this way.That the place I would meet this person is in a mall of all places. With my kids beside me, probably wondering what was going on.Raising my hand weakly to my forehead in an effort to keep from fainting, I staggered sli

    Becca.I noticed the twins' alertness and i composed my emotions. Outwardly at least. There is no way I can take care of my kids, give them the best if their mother is locked away in the hospital as a psychiatric patient.Passing my credit card to the young clerk at the counter, I released a tiny breath of relief when a quick glance revealed the woman was nowhere to be found. Probably left because she could not stand to inhale the same air as me.Yet, there is no way I could relax unless we leave this place.“Let’s go, Mum. Everything is packed.” My daughter called softly and her voice brought me out of my retrospection.“Yes, let’s go, sweethearts.” I accepted quietly as we moved with our goods that are now neatly packed in plastics and arranged accordingly in the single cart.Pushing the cart in a manner that was considered harried, I urged my kids along, more hurriedly than usual.And before we walked out of the door, I saw them glancing behind their shoulders; As if checking for s

    Becca. It was a long time later that I saw the reddish colour on the floor of the bath and I stared at the reddish flow blankly in confusion. It took another long moment before I saw the bruises on my knuckles and it occurred to me that in my misery, I had injured myself and that was my blood mixed with the water coming from the shower. It finally dawned on me that I am more emotionally damaged than I thought and I know getting over this might take a long time. Raising myself unsteadily from the floor of the bathtub, I closed the shower tap before stepping outside the tub. Running my body briskly with the big towel, I stared blankly at the blood stains on it before dropping it in the laundry basket. Knowing I had to stop the flow of blood before I faint from loss of so much blood, I moved to the first aid cabinets and sluggishly, I brought out the white bandages and with more of doggedness than finesse, I soon had the bandages wrapped around both palms and knuckles. Moving to my

    Christos. Not sure of what was going on exactly, I opened the door and stepped outside just as she put the key back into the ignition with a mind to turn back and leave? Deciding there was no way in hell I would allow such, I quickly walked down the stairs in a wave. “Hey Becca?” I called casually in a non threatening voice. She must have come to me for a reason and the last thing I want is for her to go back without getting what she came for. Hopefully, she is here to take more of me. Even before I got much closer, I could sense the wave of pain and hurt from her and I almost stopped midway with the force of the pain that hit me in the chest. ‘Our Mate is hurt and in agony.’ Lightning mourned painfully and a deadly look came into my eyes. ‘Woe betide anyone who hurts her because I swear to mother goddess, I will tear them into pieces once I lay my hands on the person.’ I vowed fiercely even as I moved forward, knowing right now what is important is my mate and she needs me. “I

    Christos. “What?” They all screamed at the same time including the twins. “Becca didn’t give me a Baby. She—she delivered triplets.” He tacked along softly and it was a while before the meaning of his words penetrated their shocked brains. “A what?” Josh Summer finally murmured, unable to believe his ears. “She gave me a boy and two girls. The most beautiful healthy babies I have ever seen in my life. That’s what my Mate gave me.” He enunciated softly, so that there was no confusion about his meaning and almost at once, everyone moved to sit down weakly. Having thought he was going to deliver unwanted news after that statement of no baby, it was a real shock to hear that not only had she given birth to a healthy baby, but babies. “Triplets, oh my God!” Erica murmured in awe, echoing the thought in everyone’s head and Christos finally allowed himself to show a little of what he was feeling. Though he is still dazed, it’s obvious he’s happy and proud of his mate’s latest accompl

    Christos.Just in that moment, they heard movements behind them and they all turned to see the newly married and pregnant Cindy running towards them with her frustrated Mate in pursuit, trying to no avail to stop her from running on the dangerous floor of the hospital and it amused them all to notice that she was barely paying him attention as she almost barged into Josh Summer who was standing almost in her path.“Oops, I am sorry, Dad.” With an embarrassing blush covering her cheeks, she apologised wryly to her best friend’s Dad who sent an amused look towards her protruding belly.“You are not trying to bring that baby to the world yet. Are you, baby girl?” Josh Summer teased with a fond smile at his daughter’s friend who was now a member of his big loving family and Cindy chuckled wryly.“Of course not, Dad. And please, don’t joke like that, it takes little to make Micheal turn green at the edges these days.” She murmured mischievously to the man she now considered to be her fath

    Christos.Wondering if it would be considered bad manners to scuffle in the hospital room even though he’s the master of the whole place, the Alpha allowed himself to take a deep breath while his wolf gave the now silent Gabriel an unbelievable look. ‘Really! Is he so stupid he doesn’t fear for his life right now?’ Lightning murmured to himself as he watched his human companion trying to control his breathing.“You want to join my Mate on the hospital bed. Don’t you? I will not mind breaking your arms right now if that’s what you are asking for.” The Alpha promised tightly, almost with relish and Gabriel gave him an askance look.“You mean despite being tense about the birth of the new pups, you will still have energy to scuffle with me?” He then made a tsk tsk sound as if he couldn’t believe it.With slitted eyes that’s almost closed, Christos gave the annoying idiot a considering look and just when he thought the hell with it and was going to throttle the guy anyways, his Beta quic

    Becca.“Most proper way possible?” I could pick out the confusion in his voice and I smiled inwardly.‘Poor man! If only he knows what plans I have gat for him.’ I mused wryly to myself with another silent chuckle even as I stood to my knees again on the bed.“Yes. My darling slow Alpha, I mean that I need you and Lightning right now. In there, pounding me hot till I scream for your mercy.” I uttered slowly even as I removed the lapels of my robe to reveal my naked body to his gaze.Even before I revealed my boobs with its newly added weight, I could feel the charged atmosphere as Lightning immediately jumped to attention upon hearing my declaration and when I saw the almost unfocused slanted eyes of my beloved mate, I finally allowed my amusement to show.“You want to stare all day or you want to come have this?” I enticed with a little pat at my well rounded endowed ass and I saw him give a visible shiver.“I would really love to stare all day, my Queen, because damn, you are worth

    Christos. I inhaled sharply before looking at her with hooded eyes.“Okay Babes, what do you want us to clarify?”“This thing, this unnecessary burden you are carrying on your shoulders. I admit that you have sexy broad shoulders that seem capable of anything but the last thing you should let them take on is a burden that’s useless.” She intoned almost harshly and not just me, but my wolf also winced along with me.“Useless?” Is that how she sees it? And couldn’t she have phrased that more gently? Why make it seem as if I’m having an unnecessary pity party?“Yes, useless. Don’t get me wrong, I understand your feelings, I sure do. I know it’s possible to feel guilty over the past, because yea, I have been there, done it all but at the end of the day, I sat myself down and I asked myself if it’s worth it. Do I want to keep wallowing in the past, wallowing in guilt or do I want to move forward and be a better version of myself? So I ask you, Christos Fernandez, do you want to continue w

    Christos.“Not me. I was paying attention. Lightning is the one with a wandering mind.” I pushed the blame on my wolf without remorse and he gave an angry bellow before peeping out of my eyes to look at our Mate with soft baby eyes, probably hoping to soften her up that way but she was having none of it.“Don’t try to be cute, Lightning. I am a woman that is after answers and I mean to get it.” She warned softly and I felt my wolf releasing a little sigh of disappointment as he sat to listen. ‘Good! At least he can’t continue to think he is the special baby here, her favourite. No way man, if I suffer, he suffers!’ I muttered to myself with relish and I heard a long hiss that showed he knew what I was thinking. But who cares? As long as he isn’t trying to take my place in my woman’s heart, I am good.“Becca darling, you should relax and stop worrying yourself over nothing, okay?” I tried to pacify the heavily pregnant woman that’s still glaring at me so suspiciously, one would think

    Christos.Just when I felt a stumble and I was certain I might never get out of this dark void that’s consuming my body and soul, I felt a cool touch on my sensitive skin and I jumped as if scalded. “Christos? What’s going on? Why are you suddenly looking as if you just saw a ghost? And why is your body so hot to touch?” Becca’s tone sounded so faint, it’s as if she was speaking from afar and it was with a great effort I pulled myself back from my own self inflicted abyss to focus my gaze on her.Even at that, her face seemed blurry and I can’t find the words to explain how I felt. “Damn it, Christos, you are getting me worried and you are indirectly transmitting this to the baby, I can feel him in here right now kicking up a ruckus and to be frank, I don’t find it funny.” Her voice suddenly called more urgently as she gripped my bulgy arms for a significant shake.If the tone of her voice had not been enough to pull me out of my misery, then the word ‘baby’ instantly did the magic

    Christos.By now, my men and Cindy already joined us with her besotted mate walking closely beside her. I could see the way they kept touching one another slyly and I glanced away from the image it was creating in my head. Turning my head to the other side, I ignored them pointedly.I want no lovey dovey distraction until I sort my pups and can then give my woman my undivided attention. In the privacy of our bedroom, mind you. ‘Hopefully, I can wait to get there before thrusting myself into her welcoming abode.’ I mused wryly to myself and Lightning’s groan gave me a jolt.‘Will you stop it, man? You are creating ideas in my head and that is not fair. Not now, when our mate has something else on her mind at least.’ He rebuked with a childish petulance that got me so amused, I wish I could hoot in laughter.But I curbed the impulse, knowing that that was not the time, not with our parents standing close by, paying attention to every word and gestures.“I am not capping, Ric.
