“We need to talk.”.They nodded and stepped into the apartment. With a deep breath, I pick the door and turn around, noting how suddenly small the apartment looks with them in it.“Please sit down,” I said, and they did.I sat down across from them, waiting for them to continue what they were saying.When they just kept on staring at me, I sighed and pressed on, “So…you Said you were leaving?”They exchanged a glance before nodding.“Yes, we are leaving next week.” Damon responded.“Hannah,” Dean called, “we actually wanted to know what your response would be to what we told you last night. Do you forgive us?”I bit my lip, staring into his eyes.Do I forgive them?I had no idea what to say or do.Even now, staring at them, my heart still yearns for them. My whole body still craved to just go into their arms.“I don't know,” I whispered.“Baby…”“No,” I snapped, standing up, my eyes already burning with unshed tears, “No, don't call me that. You hurt me. All these while, you guys were
“Isabella…” Damian called, but I cut him off with one look.I tugged my arm from Isabella's grip and, without a single word, went into the kitchen.Mum wasn't around, but the lunch was ready, so I helped myself and went back to my room with my plate.I was barely done with the food when the door opened and the triplets came in, looking, sorry.“Sorry about Isabella,” Damon said ruffling his hair, “We just have to tolerate her bullshit for now, but it won't be for long, I promise.”.I sigh, “It's okay. I understand. So, how far have you guys come with the investigation and stuff?”They exchanged glances, then sat down on my bed.“Not really very far. All we have now is the video from the CCTV camera,” Dean answered.“Here's something I do not understand, though. What edge exactly does she have over you guys? What is keeping her in control?”Because it had to be something. She shouldn't have that much power just because of a pregnancy.“When Laura died,” Damon started, “Dad did everythi
“Excuse me?” Alex growled, standing up from his chair. “What on earth are you talking about?”I don't think I've ever seen him that upset.The veins in his head were building, his jaw was clenching, and so were his fists.“Come on Alex,” Isabella responded, rolling her eyes, “you cannot say you aren't surprised. I'm going to be the mother of their first child. ““That's not really criteria. You can't force them to make you the Luna of the pack, Isabella. That's totally unreasonable.” Mum chimed in.“No. What's unreasonable is murdering my daughter and covering it up with your power. Murdering my daughter and not doing anything to bring the murderer to justice. That's what's unreasonable, Elena. You don't get to talk because you don't know how it feels.”Her expression has changed completely to anger. Her whole body was tense as she shot dagger at everyone on the table with her eyes.“Isabella,” Damon called, “What happened was totally my fault and I can't ever live it down. I apologiz
My heart leaped at Alex's words. I dug my fingers in Dean's hands unintentionally, my heart suddenly racing.He pats my knees lightly to reassure me."I'm afraid that's not possible dad," Dean said and Alex raised his brow."Excuse me? Why not?""Hannah is our mate." The room fell silent again and the only sound which broke that silence was mum's gasp."You can't be serious," Alex whispered, his eyes wide."It's the truth," I said, "We are mates so I'm afraid there's nothing we can do about it."Alex opened his mouth then closed it again.I summoned the courage to spare my mum a look and the look on her face downright broke my heart.Her face portrayed a mixture of emotions.Betrayal, surprised and confused."I can't believe this," Alex says, dragging his hand through his hair, "I cannot believe this. And I can't even deal with you guys right now.""The fact that you hid this from us..." Mum whispered and shook her head standing up from her chair."I hope you know what to do about th
The next few days were a crazy blur of tension in the house, planning, and of course sex.No one has heard a single thing about Justin and I was almost starting to wonder how someone could be so invisible.Dean, Damon and Damian were laying in the bed with me, the four of us entangled in sheets and sweat after a hot sex session.Ever since we revealed our bond to our parents, they have never really confronted us about it. Mum never brought it up...not that she had the chance to because she has been avoiding me ever since.I know the topic will rise again. But I guess everyone already has enough headaches to worry about.Dean's fingers were tapping my stomach lightly while I listened to the beat of Damon's chest."So, tell me about Justin," I suddenly asked, breaking the silence.The room seemed to fill with a bittersweet nostalgia as the triplets exchanged fond smiles. Their expressions softened, and Damon sat up, with a sigh.They haven't said a word yet but from the expressions on t
Mum and I spoke for a while, before I went back to my room, feeling better than I felt all week.The triplets didn't come back till later that evening. I had no idea what happened but their faces were as grim as fuck when they came into my room before dinner."What's wrong?" I asked, as Damian threw himself on my bed, wincing a little. The other two sat down on the bed, their expression not changing."Nothing," Dean murmured rubbing his neck, "Just had a stressful day.""Awwwn.." I got up from the reclining chair I was sitting on and walked up to him, putting my hands on his shoulders, "I'm so sorry about that. You guys need to get some rest."Dean grinned, as his arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer so his face was directly before my breasts."I know, but we just wanted to spend some time with you. How was your day?"I told them about my day and the discussion with mum. Before I finished, I was already sitting on Dean's laps, and Damon's hands were moving inside my shirt to
“Justin,” It was Alex's broken gasp that tore me out of my shock.Justin? This is Justin?I mean, I could see him outside and glance twice because the resemblance between him and the triplets is very uncanny.“Hello Dad,” he responded with a wicked grin, dropping the bag in his hand.Bag?Oh, shit! Is he here to stay or what?I stared at the back suspiciously. What if there's a ticking bomb in there?“Justin…” Dean called and from the corner of my eyes I noticed him take two steps forward hesitantly as if he were unsure of what to do, “How are you doing man?”Justin was just smiling, grinning even, but it was all wrong. Entirely wrong. The grin on his lips doesn't even match the look in his eyes, a little.His eyes looked so cold, angry…that even from this distance, I felt shivers down my spine.He shook his head, and with slow steps covered the distance between us. He didn't spare me a glance as he walked past me to his brothers.Not that I needed his glance for anything, but…“Hell
I turned to see Damon glaring at his brother's hand on mine with a very dark expression.“Damon,” Justin sneered, “You do not have to interfere.”But he released my hand anyway and I slowly rubbed it to ease off the little burn from his grip.Damon blinked, his expression shifting from dark to calm, but the frown on his forehead didn't leave.“Interfere? I don't think it's okay for you to go around the house manhandling my mate.”Justin chuckled, “How rich.”Damon's expression remained calm, and he took a step a few steps forward, “Justin…I never got to ask this, but…how are you doing?”The question must have caught him by surprise because Justin's eyes widened, and his mouth hung open for a few seconds…at least ten, before he recovered from the shock and laughed.“Oh dear brother, how generous of you to ask about my well-being. Not like you care anyway.”“Of course I care, Justin. No matter what happens, we are a family, and you are still my little brother.”Justin's chuckle was bitt

The tiny cry woke me up from my nap.I opened my eyes slowly and the first sight my eyes caught, made my heart leap in joy.Dean was sitting on a rocking chair, with the baby in his hand…our daughter, and damn does she have a pair of lungs on her.“Are you doing fine over there, daddy?” I asked with a smile as he hummed to her.He lifted his eyes to me and grinned so widely my heart leaped again.“I'm fine. She will quiet down soon enough.” He said, “Damon and Damian went out to grab some provision. They will be back soon.”I nodded, resisting the urge to ask for the baby.I could tell he was enjoying the time with her.We were still at the hospital. Young Laura was born about twelve hours ago and that moment, the moment I heard her cry for the first time, was simply the best moment of my life.The triplets were equally thrilled too. I don't believe I've ever seen their eyes carry as much love and joy as they had when they stared at our little bundle of joy.Laura.Named after the you
I frowned. My daughter? What did he mean his daughter? Surely, it could not be my mum because he seems to be the same age as her. And I'm the only lady present. Or is he speaking of another lady entirely? My daughter? The man seemed oblivious of my shock though as he marched towards Justin who was shaking, his eyes widened in shock. “Adam…” Mum called again, and he stopped, pausing for a moment and took in a deep breath, perhaps to calm his temper. Then slowly, ever so slowly, he turned to my mum and his expression changed. From angry, to something else. Guilt, remorse, pain, and …love? Again…who is this man? But deep down I already knew who he was. However, I was too shaken to admit that to myself because it couldn't be. “Elena…” He murmured and took a step forward, but my mum retraced with one step… silently making it clear that she didn't want him close. He got the message because his face tightened with more guilt. I walked beside my mum protectively. I have no idea
“Excuse me?”“Take me instead, Justin,” I whispered and perched my ass on the edge of the bed, too weak to stand.I have no idea-absolutely no idea what I was doing, but mum never did anything wrong. Not for once. All she wanted was some peace and happiness.If Justin wanted a hostage, he should have held me instead.“Oh Hannah,” Justin chuckled, “Now that's very sweet and all, but I didn't leave any room for negotiation.”“Oh shut it Justin. This will be better for you, trust me. Holding me gives you more leverage over the triplets, the majority. Because they would never want to do anything to risk my life. Alex would sacrifice his wife for the pack. Your brothers would not do the same.”He paused for a few seconds while I struggled to calm my racing nerves. I can do this. I can do this.“What can I say? I'm surprised, Hannah, but who am I to say no to such a voluntary offer?”I breathed out a sigh of relief as he gave me details of where I was to come.“Now I have to warn you, beaut
This can't be.Absolutely notThe triplets burst into the room, their faces filled with alarm and Alex right behind them.""What is wro... where on Earth is Elena?" Alex growled brushing past his sons.He grabbed my arms, "Where is your mum Hannah?"Let her go dad!" Damian barked as u broke into uncontrollable above and twisted away from his painful grip.In desperation I pointed to the note and Alex picked it up immediately.I watched his expression darken with anger as his eyes scanned the note. His anger was palpable, matching mine.I was Shaking, tears rushing down my cheeks."Dammit!" Alex hissed.Dean snatched the note from him and they read it together."What the...how could Justin do this?" Alex roared again.The guys all rushed to my side and I grabbed the first arm that came around me. I held onto him tightly and placed my head on Damian's chest, my body shaking with sobs.Not again, dear God please not again."Hannah..." Damon called and I shook my head when I heard the sym
SHOCK FROZE MY FEET TO THE GROUND and I heard Andrea's gasp just as my hand fell to my mouth which was hanging open.“Oh.mine. God,” Andrea screeched snatching the stick from my hand, “I can't believe it. Oh my god this is so great”Great, I have no idea just yet if it was great.Hell, I was too short to feel anything.“I was not expecting this,” I whispered, and Andrea snickered.“With all that sex you've been having, lately, what were you expecting?”I shook my head.No, I definitely wasn't expecting this. A baby? I'm gonna have a baby?Oh my god!I'm gonna be a mum.I placed a hand on my stomach and shuddered in delight and shock.I have a tiny life forming inside me right now.“What am I going to do?” How am I going to tell the triplets? How are they gonna react? Will they even want this?Hell, I have no idea. We have never for once, brought up the topic of a baby before.“First off…" Andrea grabbed my hand and led me to the bed, “You have to sit down and take a deep breath. Sec
I don't believe I've ever seen Dean so angry. His blue eyes turned a darker shade of golden instantly, and he marched towards his brother, murder on his face.Before Justin could react, Dean's fingers were wrapping around his neck, pulling him up.“This is what you don't do, Justin. Speak that way about our mate. And don't you dare lay your filthy fingers on her next time. Because if the thought as much as crosses your mind, I'll forget the fact that you are my little brother, and I'll crawl your eyes out and send you to the grave.”Even I was scared at the tone of his voice. Justin was coughing and grabbing his arms, the veins in his face popping as his skin turned red.“Dean, let go of your brother this very instant!”None of us heard when Alex came into the room, but his loud and deep voice was enough to snap Dean out of his rage.He released Justin, who staggered back, coughing and scratching his throat.“Can someone tell me what's happening here?” Mum walked slowly towards Alex
Making lemonade out of lemons is one thing this family was really good at, no matter what.The way we always found time to laugh despite the threats lurking around.The way we don't have to glance over our shoulder every damn second in fear.One of those moments of making lemonades was now.The kitchen was alive with laughter and chatter. We had all gathered around, sharing stories, jokes, and enjoying each other's company. The clinking of dishes, the aroma of something delicious cooking on the stove, and the warmth of togetherness filled the air. It was a welcome break from the chaos and tension that had consumed our lives recently.Alex was entertaining us with tales of his youth, back when the pack was beginning to take shape.“So, you see,” he said, “back in the day, we didn't have half the luxuries we do now. We relied on our wits and each other to survive.”Damon chimed in, “Dad, you never told Ma'am Elena about the time you tried to cook and set the whole kitchen on fire.”Alex
How Justin manages to always come in when we are talking about him never ceases to amaze him.It's like he has a radar or something.Or he's a ghost which always appears when his name is being mentioned.He stepped into the room, his presence commanding and filled with an air of violence.“Oh finally, you decide to show up.” Dean's voice was laced with frustration.Justin gave a sardonic smile, his eyes narrowing as they roamed over our family. “Well, well, isn't this cozy? I can see that you guys don't even miss me at all. I'm almost heartbroken but then…"I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, my anxiety growing. “Justin, let's talk this through. We can discuss your concerns, but there's no need for hostilities.” Alex murmured.Justin waved a dismissive hand, a wicked gleam in his eye. “Hostilities? Oh no, dad. I'm just here to set things straight. You've all had your time ruling this pack, and look where that's gotten us. Chaos, instability, and secrets.”Damian chimed in, “What do y
