"Diana, over here," Jason yelled.Diana resisted the urge to groan in frustration. Now the whole school knew she was going to sit with him. Could her day get any worse?Gripping her lunch tray carefully, she made her way through the aisle, trying not to fidget under the open stares from some of the students. She was almost at his table when someone stuck out their leg and Diana tripped on it. Her tray slipped from her hand as she struggled to balance herself.Someone screamed and Diana looked up, her eyes widening as she spotted Syrena drenched in milk. Her tray had landed on the floor, spilling the content everywhere, and the box of milk had splashed its content on some of the students.Syrena took the brunt of it.Someone snickered, and a few giggles followed. Soon the entire students burst out laughing. Syrena turned red with rage and she marched towards Diana."How dare you?!" she screamed."It... It was an accident," Diana stuttered, trying to hold back her own laughter. To se
"For the last time Headmaster Walter, I see nothing wrong with what I did," Jason drawled, his voice etched with exasperation. "I like Diana, and I feel we could be mates. What's wrong with telling her that?"They were currently in the Headmaster's office;Headmaster Walter, Jasper, Jason and Diana, Syrena and the triplets, Alden, Asher and Axel.When Jason admitted that he liked Diana, no one noticed the murderous looks that passed through Alden and his brothers' expression."Didn't you have a thing with Syrena?" Jasper asked next."There was never a thing between me and her," Jasper denied instantly, much to the annoyance of Syrena who stood beside him. "I like Diana, and I told her I would love to know her better. I know she's my mate.""I suggest you wait until the next mating ceremony before you lay claim to our sister," Asher grounded out coldly.Diana looked up at her brothers in surprise. She knew they were possessive when it came to boys, but to show it in the presence of so m
There was a brief moment of silence, but it was long enough for Alden to consider what good it would do if they told Diana she was mated to them.If Diana realized she was indeed mated to all three of them, the questions would start. How was it possible to be mated to ones brothers? And then they would have to tell her she wasn't really their sister, which would lead to more questions because Diana would want to know who she was and why the truth about her birth had been kept hidden for so long.It wasn't the right time yet. They still hadn't told their parents that Diana was their mate. Everything had to be done right. The timing mattered.Which was why he was hoping Diana would wolf out on her eighteenth birthday, and feel the pull of the mate bond. When that time came, he would be ready with an explanation to all her questions."How can you say that?" Alden finally spoke out, a look of astonishment on his face. "We can't be your mate, Diana. We're your brothers."Asher and Axel sho
Diana just stepped out from the bathroom when thunder shook the mansion and the wind picked up.Holding her towel around her body, she hurried towards the windows and closed it before the rain could pour in. The room became chilly and she quickly dried her body and slipped on her night dress.Someone knocked on the door and she turned around, slipping her hands through the sleeves of the dress."Come in."The door opened and Asher stepped in. He took one look at her and froze.Diana's night dress was a bit transparent as she stood under the chandelier, and the curves of her breast were visible. His eyes lowered, slowly taking in the smoothness of her flat tummy, the flair of her hips and her long slender legs."Asher?" Diana whispered. The burning look in his eyes was hard to resist, and she felt her nipples harden. The throbbing between her legs increased and she bit her lips.Asher's eyes darkened with desire and he slowly moved towards her. Diana watched him approach, but did noth
"Are you sure you're okay Ana?" Luna Catherine asked as she pulled the thick duvet over Diana, keeping her warm.Diana smiled. Only her mother called her Ana and it was a pet name that she had grown fond of. "I'm fine, mom," she answered. "I just..."When she trailed off, Luna Catherine sat on the side of the bed and gently stroked her hair."You know you can talk to me," she said with a kind smile. "I'm your mother.""I know," Diana sighed. "I'm just worried. What if I never find my wolf? What if I remain mateless? People would laugh at me, and you and dad would be ashamed. Imagine the daughter of the Alpha and Luna being wolfless and mateless.""Your father and I will never be ashamed of you," Luna Catherine said fiercely. "We love you Diana. Just because you haven't found your wolf doesn't make you any lesser than the others who have. You're kind, and you're special. You're my daughter, a gift from the moon goddess to me. My love for you would never depreciate just because you hav
The moment Diana woke up the next day, she looked towards her side, expecting to see Asher there.He wasn't. So it had been another dream. And like the other dreams, it felt so real. She fell backwards and let out a pleased sigh. Memories of the dream replayed in her mind and she giggled happily. She had never felt this way about her other dreams, so why did she suddenly feel giddy after last night?Was it because last night has been slightly different from the others?"Get a hold of yourself, Diana," she scolded herself and jumped out of the bed. As she made her way to the bathroom, someone knocked."Come in," Two maids walked in holding freshly washed sheets and duvets."Pleasant morning to you, Princess Diana," the maids curtsied respectfully."Pleasant morning to you too," Diana smiled softly at them. "The Alpha and Luna have asked us to inform you that the school wouldn't be open today," Tessa, the blonde maid, spoke softly."Why not?" Diana asked."It is because everyone need
Syrena whirled around and the smile on her face disappeared when she spotted Diana.Axel was stunned, as well her brothers, to see Diana standing there, glaring at Syrena like a furious goddess."What are you doing here?" Syrena asked angrily. "Don't you have something better to do than stalk me?""I could say the same for you," Diana shot back. "Don't you have something better to do than throw yourself at every man you see?"Asher forced out a dry cough, a poor attempt to disguise his laughter while Alden and Axel looked away so they wouldn't give away the amusement on their faces."You know Diana, I think you're overstepping your boundaries here," Syrena slowly moved forward until she was glaring right into Diana's eyes. "Just because you're the Alpha's daughter doesn't mean...""I am the Alpha's daughter," Diana shut her up with a swift comeback. "And that means I am better than you. You're just a crazy shewolf who wants every man to get into her pants.""At least I have a wolf," S
"Diana wake up!"It was when her eyes snapped open that Diana realized she was the one screaming. She shot up in bed, breathing hard, eyes wide and darting around frantically. Her night dress was damp with perspiration, her hair plastered to her face.Someone touched her and she gasped, scooting away from the physical contact."Diana, it's me," Luna Catherine said worriedly. "It's mom. You just had a bad dream."Realizing that it was indeed her mother in the room with her, Diana's face crumpled and she began to sob."Oh, mom," she sobbed, letting her mother fold her in her embrace."There, there, that's enough," Luna Catherine whispered, caressing Diana's back soothingly. "It was just a bad dream. You're fine now. Just a bad dream.""I was so scared," Diana whimpered, her tears spilling down her cheeks freely. "It was so dark in the forest, and I was so scared.""It was all a dream," Luna Catherine repeated and kissed her hair. "No one will hurt you. You're safe."[Alaric, please com
