Chapter Three: Going Home Part One 

 

Phera POV: 

 

"Sweetheart, your sister's mating ceremony is this weekend, along with your brother's accession ceremony to beta." 

Were mom's words as they replayed in my head over in a loop. 

Newmara's mating ceremony? 

Mom hadn't mentioned if she had found her fated mate or if she had taken a chosen. The gut-wrenching feeling that maybe the triplets had chosen her as their mate and luna. Even though I felt that the triplets were my mates, I wasn't sure. It was just my instincts telling me that could be the case, but I had never returned to the Red Moon Pack on or after my eighteenth birthday. The thought of it being true and then probably getting rejected because they preferred my sister over me would have been the last straw. I would've dived so deep into an abyss that I wouldn't have been able to come out. Even though it was stupid of me to assume things, I didn't want to risk it. I always believed the triplets knew of my feelings for them. Hell, even they at times seemed to show affection more than they would to a best friend's younger sibling, but it could have been my delusional teenage mind convincing me that was the case. Whatsoever, it's been years, and no matter how fresh or old the wound inside me was, I would never admit that night still plagued my mind. Not like anyone knew either. The triplets and Newmara were alone on that baloney. Not even Nate was anywhere close by. Newmara and the triplets broke my heart in such a way that even if it was confirmed that the triplets were my mates and I their Luna, I don't think I would have it in me to accept them. 

"You okay there, beautiful?" I heard Josh say from beside me in the seat. 

His voice broke me out of my thoughts of my miserable teenage day. Despite arguing and making a gazillion excuses to mom and even dad, they didn't relent and forced me to come back for Nate' and Newmara events. And, being the scared little person I was when it came to the probable chance of facing the triplets, I dragged Josh with me. His pack is neighbours with my pack anyway, so it wasn't hard to convince him. Even though I was going more for Nate than Newmara, the journey and stay was still something I was dreading. From what my parents told me, Red Moon had become the most feared and powerful pack after the royal pack, which was run by the alpha king and queen in the wolf multiverse. According to dad, the triplets had become ruthless over the years, and wolves and packs feared them. And, with Nate ascending to beta, that meant the triplets would be present. If they were mating Newmara they'd be definitely there as well, but the point was the chances of hiding out and not being seen by them were slim to none. For all the tough shit I say at the academy and act all high and mighty because I'm top of the warrior class, that whole macho shimmers down to as tiny as an ant when the thought of me confronting the triplets come to mind. Goddess! I wish they didn't have such an effect on me! But my luck was absolute trash when it involved them. 

"Phera, Phera," Josh said, snapping his fingers in front of my face bringing me back to reality once again. 

"Lost you there again, beautiful. You okay?" Asked Josh as he put his arm around my shoulder. 

He stared into my eyes for a bit, and then a spark of realization sparked in his eyes as he gave my shoulder a comforting squeeze. 

"It's them, isn't it? The triplets. You're scared about coming face to face after so many years." Asked Josh, seeing right through me. 

I hadn't hidden anything from Josh, he was my best friend before my boyfriend, and he knew how much I cared and wanted the triplets. And then how mercilessly they and Newmara broke my heart and never looked back. Even though I had told him constantly that I wouldn't be able to love him like I did the triplets, Josh never seemed to care. Though he was cool with it, I wasn't. Josh had been hurt before when he found his mate, she had rejected him because she was human and too scared of our world. At the time, I was there to help him pick up the pieces, and I didn't want to be the cause of his heart shattering again. Because if my mate showed up and it wasn't the triplets, I would be accepting him. There's no bond like the mate bond, and as outstanding as Josh was, I don't think I'd be able to choose him over my mate. But, he was willing to take the chance and even said that if I found my mate and wanted to leave with him, he wouldn't stand in the way. Goddess! I always ask the goddess why couldn't Josh be my mate. He was perfect in every way! Feeling Josh squeeze my shoulder, I looked at him and gave him a small smile, not denying or agreeing with his question. And, being the amazing boyfriend/best friend he was, he immediately picked up on my feeble try and sighed. 

"I get you're scared or more like nervous but don't be Phera. Years have passed, and they haven't once asked about you or tried to contact you. I doubt they'll do it now. Plus, don't think about all this. What's supposed to happen is gonna happen. Why plague your mind about it now and torture yourself? You just focus on being there for your sister and brother, despite how much you don't want to be there." Said Josh. 

This time I gave him a genuine smile, pecked his lips, and laid my head on his shoulder. He was right! The triplets hadn't even bothered looking or getting in contact with me, and they even happily signed off my request to study at the academy. They wouldn't be wasting their time on me when I magically decided to return to the pack. Plus, Josh had a point, I should focus on my siblings. I was thrilled Nate was finally ascending. He denied taking the title when the triplets did, saying he wanted to train at the royal pack and complete his studies before ascending. This was a big thing for him and our family, and not being there because of something that was no one's fault but mine was being selfish. And, even with what Newmara did after knowing her baby sister's feelings, I still didn't wish for anything bad to befall her. Chosen mate or fated, I just wanted her to be happy. 

"Alright, we're here. Have your pack sigils and papers out before you get to the portal. Warriors will be there to check all necessary paperwork and allow you to pass to the wolf multiverse." The driver boomed over the speaker of the bus. 

Getting down from the bus with Josh right next to me. I held my pack sigil necklace tight in my palm and the pack affiliation papers in the other, looking deep into the woods where the tiny sparkles of the portal could be seen. 

It's now or never, Phera.

Paperwork needed to be present before crossing over to the wolf multiverse to ensure whether human or wolves crossing over were part of a pack. Humans were unaware of the presence of the supernatural world unless one was mated to a wolf. The portal had to be guarded twenty-four-seven just in case of any unforeseen hiccups. Not like a human could see the shiny white thing, but it was better to be safe than sorry. The anxiety that Josh had managed to calm down was slowly creeping back into my heart. In just a few moments, I'll be on the other side of the portal, in the wolf multiverse and then the Red Moon Pack. I hadn't been back to both places since I came to California. Had anything changed in the pack? Were Beth and Reese the same? Even though we facetime and talked over text daily, it wasn't the same as meeting in person. And

They fucking knew I was their mate on that night all those years ago when they cozied up with my sister. A Luna was supposed to make her alpha strong, but here were my alphas, my mates, who happily sent me off and didn't bother coming to me all these years. Even when I turned eighteen, and they knew I could feel the bond, they still denied coming forth. I was broken out of my thoughts when I felt Josh squeeze my hand, but before I could even turn to him or anyone else, three ferocious growls rang out in the air.

I didn't want to hurt Josh, but I also didn't wanna hurt the triplets by staying with Josh and then the third reason I didn't even want to be with the triplets. Their words about how they wouldn't leave their mate alone echoed in my mind. They had always known. They had known when I was thirteen, and they were eighteen, and despite that, they hooked up with everything that had two legs. Then they did the worse thing a mate could do: they made out with my sister while fully knwoing I was standing outside. Now thinking of it, did Newmara know? Did Nate know? That I was their bestfriends and alphas mate, their luna. The triplets, my siblings and the triplet's younger brother Adam were best of friends, thick like thieves. And, if they knew and despite that Newmara did what she did, I don't think I could ever even look at her again. Jealousy burned

After I recovered from the shock of Newmara and Adam being fated mates, I congratulated them and sat with the rest of my family for a bit till I made an excuse and came here. Josh and Nate had hit it off, seeing they were both future betas and pack allies, which made me less guilty for abandoning him back there with my family. The awkwardness between him and me was instantly gone after what had happened, but it still didn't make the guilt any less thinking back to his sullen face on our walk here. I wasn't sure what was going to happen now. I wasn't going to accept the triplets and be putty in their hands, especially after the fact that they knew I was their mate and they cuddled up with my sister. Then there was Newmara; she had always known of my feelings for the triplets, and despite that, she always made sure I was reminded how they wou

Then it was gone when a warrior of theirs had brought in a massive bouquet of yellow roses and a box of chocolates. And, just not any chocolates but chocolates from a specific family-owned chocolatier I loved back in California. How they knew that was beyond me. As much as I wanted to accept both things, I didn't. I left them on the kitchen counter, ignoring the red note that stuck out like a sore thumb begging me to read it. I couldn't. I needed to be strong if I wanted to get through today. I twisted and turned in my bed the entire night, thinking about the triplets. Life had gobsmacked me back to square one. Even though I wasn't reliving what they and my sister did on the balcony, but reliving every moment after their eighteenth birthday when they paraded some she-wolf in front

Be strong, P! You got this. I could hear the heels chattering against the sparkling black marble floor towards them; jealousy sprang in my heart at the thought of so many she-wolves throwing themselves at my mates, but I pushed it down. They were my mates by name. I hadn't accepted them, nor was I planning to, more like ever, anytime soon. So those girls could go and have fun; even though those thoughts and words sounded bitter to me, I pushed myself further towards the bar, where I could see Betty and Reese waving at me like mad women, which had me chuckling. If there was something that didn't change over these past few years, it was our friendship.We had been friends since we were in diapers; apart from leaving my family all those years ago, leaving them was the second hardest thing I did

My brother, forever the casanova of the pack, I pity his mate when he finds her. She would be in for a ride taming the famous Nate Evans. All the noise died down instantly when Axel lifted his hand; everyone became quiet as a mouse waiting to see what their alpha had to say."As everyone must've heard by now that, our younger brother has found his fated mate..." Axel started, then looked towards Newmara smiling at her. Even though it was small twitch of his lips and couldn't be seen because of their angle, I picked it up instantly. Hurt squeezed my heart, it was just a smile, but still, it was more than I got since I came back. All I was getting was their smugness or protectiveness. Pl

But, all of those things aside, what tore my heart into pieces was when they didn't even flinch when I mentioned them and Newmara. That meant they knew I was watching. Did they mean for me to see them together? That they preferred my sister over me, and now that she's mated to their younger brother, I'm their fallback while I should've been their number one priority the moment they turned eighteen and knew about me being their mate. "Ms. Evans!" I heard Mr. Maxwell shout my name, jolting me out of my thoughts. Looking up, I saw the entire class staring at me as I blushed, embarrassed. Fuck!

Pain radiates through my body, but I forced myself to get up. I couldn't afford to show weakness. Not now. Not ever.

I could feel the tension radiating off her, and it mirrored my own anxiety.Our allies from the surrounding packs had gathered, their warriors mingling with ours. It was a sight to see, the combined forces of Red Moon, Silver Moon, Blood Moon, and RavenClaw packs along with the alpha king himself and his top three elite teams ready to defend our home. The weight of what lay ahead was heavy, but it was balanced by the solidarity and strength we drew from each other.Vince, the Alpha of RavenClaw, stood at the front of the room, addressing the gathered warriors.

We were on the brink of an all-out war, and the lives of everyone we cared about were hanging in the balance.The door opened, and the Alpha King entered, his presence commanding immediate attention. What the hell was he doing here? His eyes were sharp, and his expression was unreadable. Behind him, his royal guards took their positions, their stoic faces betraying nothing. Instinctively, everyone in the room, including Phera and us, bowed in respect."Alpha King," Damon began, straightening up. "What brings you here?"The Alpha King’s gaze swept the room before settling on Phera. "I came to offer my support and discuss some critical matters," he said, his voice firm.

"Phera, sweetheart. Didn’t expect to see you here," he sneered, his voice dripping with mockery.I swallowed hard, forcing myself to remain composed. "Josh, we need to talk."He laughed, a sound that grated on my nerves. "Talk? About what? How you betrayed me? How you are with those bastards instead of me?"I took a seat across from him, trying to appear calm. "Josh, this isn’t about you and me. This is about
