MITCHJust like our baby girl, we'd been super busy this week. We had a meeting with the elders of the pack two days ago about the Luna's position in the pack. They were still unwilling to acknowledge Summer, and we couldn't use our position to make them change their minds because she warned us against that. She wanted the pack to recognize her because she was capable. That was why she asked us to let things play out on their own. And we respected her wishes, knowing she was right in that aspect. We had just gone to a business meeting with the CEO of Infantile Wears. Summer would have gone there with us had she not been busy with work. The strain was showing on her face. The task she had been doing these past seven days was more than we had ever subjected her to, but she never complained about it. That is why we decided to reduce the burden. We planned a weekend away with her at her favourite hotel because she always spoke of how good their food was and how much she missed it. “Do
HELENI inhaled, sighing at the sweet smell of summer. Fall was close, I could feel it, and that sent tingles through my body. Things were finally getting into place. A smile crept over my face as I gazed at the sleeping woman. “It's a pity I have to do this.” I sighed, running my fingers over her smooth face. I would have sunk my claws into it and watched with satisfaction as the blood gushed, but I withheld the urge. I needed to make everything look real and perfect. Giving her a mark would cause her mates to suspect she was forced, and that wasn't something I was looking forward to. I picked her up from the couch and carried her to their shared room. I would have taken her to hers, but wanted to rub this in the faces of their mates. Knowing who they were, cheating on them, wouldn't hurt as much as seeing her with another man in their bed. I placed her on the bed, frowning when she tried to push me away. The drug I used on her was a heavy one, so I wasn't scared of waking her up
MITCHWe rushed home like possessed men, our hearts beating from both fear and the race we had down to our car. Instead of taking the elevator like we always did, Mike said it would delay us, so we ended up running down the stairs at the speed of lighting. Miles drove, and Mike sat next to him in the passenger's position. I was the only one sitting at the back, our thoughts all on our mate. The moment he drove into our compound and killed the engine, we jumped out of the car and raced for the door. “My Alphas!” Helen met us by the door. She was standing by the side of the house, but we failed to see her because our focus was on the door and nothing else.“Get out!” We growled at her, stepping to the door. I unlocked it with my thumb, frowning when I noticed the imprint of a hand on the handle. That wasn't caused by us, so there was no freaking way it could be there if someone weren't in the building. With our hearts thumping at that revelation, we stepped into the house, banging th

SUMMERTalk of something unexpected happening. I woke up when I felt a hand on my body. At first, I thought it was either of my mates' hands, but it felt so odd. Snapping my groggy eyes open, I screamed when I saw another man on the bed, naked and trying to feel me up. When I struggled to fight with him, he held both of my hands above my head, trapping me under him. I could even fight as I struggled to get him to free me, only to get caught by my mates. My gaze wandered around the room, at the lifeless human on the floor. I tried to wonder how everything went wrong. “I didn't do that,” I affirmed, looking up at them with tears brimming in my eyes. I sniffed, wiping the tears.“How do you expect us to believe you when we saw you in bed with another man?” Mike asked, a scowl on his face. I'd never seen my brothers as angry as they were, and I knew I was the cause. How the hell did I sleep off and get here? The human and —“Helen! Where is she?” I glanced around, expecting the werewo
Things were tense between us. I mean, the super strained one with an uncomfortable silence so thick you can cut through it with a sword and make a pie. After our confrontation, Mitch tried to act normal with me, coming up to tell me dinner had been made. I was the one who refused it, knowing they were only doing this because they'd gotten used to it, and were only feeling sorry for me. I didn't eat dinner that night, despite the many times they came knocking on my door. I was heartbroken, more than they were. Their accusations hurt me the most, not waking up to see a human in the same bed with me. It broke my heart to know that the men I'd loved deeply would think badly about me. The next day, I woke up before them, had my bath, and got dressed. I ate the last bread in the fridge, promising myself to get my food from now on. I would have moved out of their house, but the thoughts of what my father might say about it made me decide again. In a way, they weren't to be blamed. Anyone
I buried myself in work while seeking Helen. The woman has been hiding for a week now. Things were getting hot between my mates, and I knew it was just a matter of time before they snapped. We still lived under the same roof, but our conversations with each other had been strained. No day passes without me snapping at them, especially when they try to use that cheating word on me. Mitch was the only one who worked to act normal with me, but I could tell he was just acting. He was, after all, the one who cared for me the best when we were still harmonious. He'd gotten used to that and was attempting to keep up with it. The bitter one among them was Mike. He kept on snapping any chance he got. Miles remained silent. I doubt he'd spoken to me more than thrice since that incident. Most of the time, he avoided staying in the same place as me. They still send my work to me. Like I once said, my mates don't mix business with pleasure. Work was work. Our personal life had nothing to do wit
Mitch didn't speak of what happened in the sitting room, and I didn't press that. I just let him do whatever he wished, while looking for that slut, Helen. I had yet to find her, but I knew I would, and I did. I found her two weeks later, in a grocery store. I had just gone over to get some things when I met her. "Helen!" I called out, waving at her, smiling like one who had seen a best friend. I rushed over to her, still grinning. Her eyes widened when she saw me. She looked like a deer caught in headlights as she waited for me to arrive. The guilt in her eyes was enough for me to know she knew what happened that fateful day. “Hi.” She smiled. “What brings you here? Are you here to get groceries? What about your mates?” She asked, looking behind me as if they were hiding at my back. “Oh, them? I don't eat with them anymore. Since they found me in bed with a man, they haven't spoken to me. We are now like strangers sharing the same roof.” I sniffed, dabbing under my eyes with my h
