CAMERON’S POVA soon as I walked out of the house, I felt like I could actually breath again. I has no idea of what was wrong with me. Things weren't meant to play out like this between Anne and I. The tightness I was feeling in my chest wasn't supposed to be there. The jealousy I was feeling wasn't legitimate. I had no right to. I was the one that rejected her not the other way around. Then why was I feeling like this?The main reason I rejected her was to stay away from the drama and to avoid unnecessary confusion.‘The confused one has to be you right now.’ My wolf said. It felt like he was mocking me.Thinking about how I met her, I really found her attractive and I wanted her. Until eventually got to know that she was to be the mated of the three of us. I found it so hot. Imagining my brothers and I having her at the same time was such a turn on. That was another reason I rejected her. I didn’t know how my brothers would feel about it. The happiness on Cadel's face the day he
ANNE’S POVIt has been two days since the encounter I had with Cam and I could confidently say that the bastard was avoiding me. I'd been speculating about it before but now I was fully sure. I know I was the one that jumped him because he looked so yum and irresistible but at least. He hasn't looked at me since it happened. Cadel didn't come around like he used too and I didn't even see Carson at all. I felt like I was going crazy and my mates were the reasons for it. The moment I had with him in the kitchen, I didn't regret it at all. I even wanted more. But I couldn't forget the look he had on his face when he left. He looked like he had done the most horrible thing in the world. That alone made me feel like shit. I started to think back to what I had gone through before. Feeling unwanted and alone. The fear that same thing was going to happen to me again took over my sanity. I stood up from the bed and started pacing around the room.‘Let's go talk to them.’ My wolf said. ‘Wh
CADEL’S POVTapping my feel impatiently on the floor, I went through the chart of the patient in front of me. I tried to concentrate at the matter at hand since it seemed like a serious case that will need surgery as soon as possible.But it was really hard to do. I was so restless. I couldn’t seem to focus what needed to be done. My wolf was not making it easy either. I thought coming to the hospital would make things better. That I'd be able to get my head together. But the method seemed not to be working.Anne really messed with my head.I knew that this situation was going to come one time. I knew we'd all have to talk about it. I didn't want to admit that my brothers share a mate with me.Now, the situation seemed to be getting out of hand. I'm kind of clueless on what to do. This was all on me. I know. I wasn't been reasonable enough. I hated the fact that Carson was going to have what I had. Treasure what I treasured. It made me feel uneasy. The craziest part of this whole dra
ANNE’S POVI sat on the window sill with a book in my hands. Surprisingly the library here had so many books. Intriguing books that made me feel like I've played all my life. Cause I've read loads of book and it just didn’t seem enough. I finally felt a little bit of peace since I spoke with Cadel about how I felt about his brothers. Even though I got the reaction I wasn't expecting, I felt better. I've not seen anyone of them since the day before yesterday. The link I had with them was calm. No much brooding like there would be normally. Maybe they could finally talk things out and there won't be any problem again. I would finally be happy with my mates.There was a sudden knock on the door."Come in." I said without raising my head from the book I was reading. "Now, I wasn't expecting you to be a bookworm. C'mon girl." Nicole's high pitched voice rang out as she walked into the room. I laughed."Hi. I haven't really seen you around." I replied."Yeah. I had to get myself in sha
CARSON’S POVIt's been a few weeks since the issue with the rogue. There hasn't been any thing out of the ordinary around the border since the security has been tightened. I couldn’t seem to figure out why though. Why Blackmoon pack was making a move after all these years. And I had a feeling about who sent this. I was sure it was not the current alpha. It had to be his father. He was the one that murdered our parents. I could still remember the look on his face that night. The night I would never forget in my life. The night that still haunted my dreams. I didn't tell anyone about what happened that night as I could not bring myself to say it. During the attack that day, our parents had told Kane to take us and our sister alongside with some other people through the tunnel that had been made in case of emergency. The tunnel had let straight to a safe house, where no one but my parents and Kane knew about. My brothers were in front of Kane, but I was following behind him. Then lo
ANNE’S POVI was sitting on the counter in the kitchen, keeping Lydia company and helping with things that I could. I blushed whenever I remembered what transpired between Cam and I in this same space weeks ago. To think that it has been almost a month now and the memory was still fresh in my mind."Anne, are you okay?" Lydia asked, with a mischievous glint in her eyes."What?! No, nothing is wrong?" I said as I tried to get myself together."You sure? Your whole face looks so red." She was teasing me. I just knew it. "Lydia stop it." I squirmed in the stool I was sitting on causing her to laugh softly."Or did you get any action from the Alphas?" She chirped in, winking her eyes mischievously."Lydia!" I exclaimed, giggling a little.When I informed her that I was mated to the three alphas shortly after I told Nic. She wasn't as surprised as I expected her to be.She wasn't awed. She told me we were not the first to go through this. I was so curious to know more that i had to ask h
THIRD PERSON’S POVEvery where was in chaos. The three Alphas were barking out orders at the medical staff. Nic had mindlinked them immediately Anne was shot. Carson almost went into shock when he heard that Anne had been shot. It felt like what happened the night that their parents died was about to take place again. All the pack members that were around were in awe to see the Alphas panicking over a female. She was pushed into the hospital beside the pack house. The doctors had been told to stay on standby. "She's losing a lot of blood!" One nurse shouted."Get her blood, Test and check if there is sample for her." One of the doctors said. Anne could hear some of their conversations as she was drifting in and out of consciousness. One of the nurses turned towards the Alphas.“Please step outside so that we can do our jobs.” She said."Don't fucking tell us what to do. That's our mate there, lying almost dead!" Cam said, obviously forming with anger. The nurse was taken aback
ANNE’S POVMy head was banging. There was ringing in my ears. I felt like the whole world weighed on my body causing me to groan internally. What the fuck happened to me? I was conscious, but I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes. My fingers clutched onto the edge of the sheets tightly. Gathering up all the strength I had within me, I forcefully tore my eyes apart. The brightness of the room hitting me with full force causing me to shut them as quickly as I could. The act sending another sharp pain to my brain."Anne….Anne. Are you awake?" I heard Cam's voice.Cam?He was with me?What happened to me? I tried opening my eyes the second time and I squinted until I could fairly adjust to the lighting of the room. My throat was patched. I needed to drink some water. I wanted to sit up but he didn't allow me."Hey, hey. Calm down." He said."Wa…wa..water." I croaked out. I watched him with intensity as he took a jug from the bed side and poured some water into the cup. Whole I st
Epilogue Anna’s POV: We were married for two and a half years. I lived with the brothers and our kids in one house, while Nicole and Lucas had their own homes nearby. I had a son with Cadel, a daughter with Cameroon, and was expecting a baby with Carson. But when the time came for the baby to arrive, something went wrong. The brothers waited outside the medical center, worried. Carson, especially, looked really concerned. An hour later, we got the sad news that the baby didn't make it. Carson couldn't hold back his pain and let out a howl of sorrow. Carson was devastated for months after we lost the baby. Cadel and Cameroon allowed us the time and space to heal. They didn't mind that I was spending more time with Carson than them. They didn't even mind that they had to look after the kids most of the time. Nicole did help us out a lot with looking after her nephew and niece. Slowly, Carson and I found comfort in each other's company. After a while, our intimacy rekindled,
Anna's POV:Inside the Alpha quarters, in the confines of the large living room, only three of us remained: Nicole, Lucas, and me. We hoped those who went after Cecilia's killer would return any moment, having faced little challenge in capturing him. But we were wrong. A primal roar shattered the silence around us twice. Nicole stood up abruptly. “That must be Bryan.”I joined her. “He's calling for his pack.”“What could have possibly gone wrong?” Lucas asked as he rose too."Let's go after them!" I declared.Lucas nodded, and we left the house, heading towards the forest. As we went after Bryan and the others, more pack members joined us, all responding to the Alpha's call. As we reached the edge of the forest, the scene before us made my blood run cold. Bodies lay strewn across the ground, the metallic scent of blood mixing with the earthy smell of the forest. The moon cast an eerie light over the carnage, illuminating the torn remains and the still forms of bodies.Nicole gaspe
Carson's POV:We moved swiftly through the pack house grounds, slipping back into the dense forest where the killer had disappeared. The night air was cool, and the scent of wet wood and damp earth filled my nostrils. Each step sent jolts of pain through my body, but I gritted my teeth and pushed on."Where did you last see him?" Collins asked, his voice low but urgent.I pointed towards the slope where the spears had shot out. "Down there. He triggered the trap and vanished."Cameroon led the way, carefully going down the slope and each of us descended after him. As we reached the bottom, I paused, sniffing the air."He's close. I can still smell him," I said, my voice a growl.“Isn't that strange?” Collins mused.“What is?” I asked. “If I killed my Luna, I wouldn't be lurking around still,” Collins said, with a thoughtful expression. “What if we are working into a trap?”Pausing briefly, I replied, “Well we outnumber him five to one. I say we get this son of a bitch, regardless.”W
Carson's POVCameroon and I chased after Cecilia's killer. He was fast, agile, and remarkably skilled at evasion. Just as my hands dove to catch him, he leaped over a massive log, and I ended up crushing an unfortunate firefly instead. I tossed it away in frustration.Cameroon lagged behind me, making me wish Cadel were here to assist in the chase. As we tore through the forest, which grew steeper with every step, the killer only seemed to get faster. We approached a particularly treacherous section of the forest, where he slid down a slope and pulled a lever. Suddenly, pairs of spears shot out, several piercing my body.“Argh, damn it, it hurts,” I yelled.“Whoa, whoa, whoa, careful!” Cameroon sang the last word, spreading out his arms to balance himself as he screeched to an emergency stop.I scanned the slope, but the killer had vanished after triggering his trap.“Wolfsbane,” I groaned. “The spears—”“It’s okay, I got you. I got you.” Cameroon pulled me back. “We need to head back
Anna's POV:Returning to my pack stirred up more trouble than I anticipated. Cecilia's disdainful remarks since our arrival only fueled my desire to leave. Yet, despite the ease of saying the words, I found myself lingering. Was it the twisted satisfaction of witnessing Cecilia and her mate's conflict over me that held me back?Alpha Bryan's decisive action, slamming the door on Cecilia, sent a strange thrill through me. I shouldn't feel this way; I didn't care for Bryan. Yet, his defiance of his Luna for hosting us made me feel oddly important."Hey, Anna, lost in thought?" Cadel's touch on my elbow brought me back."Yeah, just thinking about tomorrow." Damn, did I just lie to Cadel?He looked at me, towel hanging loosely. "What's happening tomorrow?""We won't be stuck in the alpha quarters forever. Eventually, we'll venture out, and I'll face werewolves who share Cecilia's resentment.""They can't all hate you. Collins and Bryan seem to support us.""Yeah, tell me about it."Cadel
Cadel's POVAfter Nicole's brash confrontation with Cecilia, the room fell into a thoughtful silence. Cecilia's eyes flickered with suppressed emotions as she briefly avoided meeting our gazes, perhaps acutely aware of the rift her actions had caused.Nicole, on the other hand, remained stoic, her expression guarded as she picked at her food, seemingly unfazed by the lingering hostility in the room. The tension between her and Cecilia stewed beneath the surface, threatening to spill over at any moment.Cecilia's fingers drummed impatiently on the table, her jaw still clenched with frustration. Finally, unable to contain herself any longer, she spoke, her voice sharp and cutting."You think you can come into my home and tell me how I should behave?" Cecilia's eyes blazed with defiance as she locked gaze with Nicole. “You came here unannounced and it's taking every fiber of my being not to kick you sorry lot out. So, while I begrudgingly extend my invitation, you all would do well to re
Carson's POV:As we stepped into the dining room, a space illuminated by mostly candlelights, Cecilia set a tray of potato fries on the table causing them to bounce with a soft thud. She pulled out the nearest seat and settled onto it, legs crossed in an ankle style. The hem of her silky nightdress revealed a tantalizing glimpse of her thighs. My gaze unintentionally lingered on the faint impression of her nipples against the fabric. “Hey, babe,” she purred, adjusting her dress as Bryan approached. “I’m really craving a proper massage after dinner.”Bryan slid into a seat beside her with a smirk. “Sure thing, I can be your masseuse. I just wished you'd pay me for it.”Cecilia playfully lifted her leg, resting it on his lap. “Oh, honey, I do pay you – just not in cash.”“Ceci, now is not a good time, please put your sexy creamy leg back down.”Cameroon and I shared a knowing look before settling down at the table, joined by Nicole, Lucas, Cadel, and Anna. With a coy smile, Cecilia
Cameroon POVSeeing my Uncle, Ben, had terrified me to a great length. He was easily the strongest werewolf I've ever met. I know this because I've seen him overpower even the strongest of adversaries with ease. His sheer strength and ferocity were unmatched. Even if my brothers and I were at the peak of our strength, we wouldn't have stood a chance against him, especially with five other werewolves backing him up. While grappling with Uncle Ben, we communicated through our mind link with Lucas, asking him to seek help in case we couldn't win. If we failed, the girls would be in need of rescue. Yet, I never dreamed we could stall Uncle Ben for so long. The Uncle Ben I knew, at his most aggressive, could have overwhelmed us within minutes.Was he growing weaker, or had we grown stronger? Regardless, he had us when it counted, but then Uncle Ben abruptly halted his assault and fled. Was it a change of heart, or did he detect a more pressing threat? His sudden departure left me both sur
Anna's POVThe forest trees blurred past us as Nicole and I ran for our dear lives. The sounds of growls and snarls echoed behind us. My heart pounded heavily in my chest, and dread enveloped me tightly as I stole a glance over my shoulder, catching sight of Uncle Ben and his pack tearing into the Alpha brothers ruthlessly. Was this going to be how I lost my mates? So much for going back home with three Alphas as mates. Please, moon goddess, don't let them die! "Nicole, why is your Uncle trying to kill us?" I gasped out between breaths, as we dodged between tall trees and bushes, hoping to escape our attackers. Nicole's expression was grim as she glanced at me. "Uncle Ben's desire to kill us comes from a deep-seated belief in the purity and superiority of the family bloodline. We come from a long line of werewolf alphas, with a family history steeped in the purity of our bloodline. Our father was only half werewolf, breaking the purity, and Uncle Ben, being full-blooded, resents us
