Saving The Alpha's Triplets 66: Flirty Stranger
JENNAI knew the direction of the bar from the tour Amaya gave us when we first arrived. I found it easily. But for some reason, going in didn’t seem like the right thing to do.I wished I was on call with Claire right now, she would have given me the words of encouragement I needed.No, I didn’t need any encouragement. I said to myself. I didn’t need anybody to push me when I ran for miles on foot. I left the only home I have ever known with barely enough money to get a solid meal. And I’m still standing.I own a restaurant. I’m a proud mother. I’m loved in my new home. I’m good. I’m fine.I kept repeating the words until I felt better. Until the fast pacing of my heart reduced to a gentle thrum. Then I huffed out a breath through my mouth and looked at the entrance again. No one is going to catch you, Jenna.It is just a club. I said for the last time. I took a step forward but didn’t fully go in.“You know, there isn’t a monster in there, right?” I was startled when I heard the dee
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 67: Reading People
JENNAReed, as I came to learn his name was, said he was here alone, for business. He’d laughed when he saw my expression after he said that. Of course, I thought he was lying.This is a resort and most people you see are couples. He didn’t ask who I was here with, to his credit. We sat and chatted, well, he mostly spoke and I listened. He was proving to be a really good distraction.This is probably not what Claire meant when she said I should put myself out there. But this is better than anything she would recommend.He ordered a martini for me, saying it would be best if I didn’t want to get tipsy. It would take a lot of alcohol to actually get me drunk, but I didn’t tell him that.He may have good humor and an amazing smile, but I’m not about to make myself seem like prey.“See, that woman right there is looking for a good time.” He motioned to a redhead who had been sitting alone at a booth in the end of the room.I shook my head no then turned back to him. “She is sitting alone,
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 68: Flirting Skills
JENNAAfter Reed dropped that bomb and we went out, I didn’t know what I was expecting to come out of his mouth. But I was somewhat looking forward to it. He was unpredictable in the best way.The sky was littered with shining stars. And the sight of the moon, along with the few candles lighted around the tents on the beach, made the place look ethereal. Like something out of a fantasy novel or book. It was almost like a dream come true.I made a mental note in my head to bring the kids here sometime, when they are back safely. This is something Nina would like specifically. And maybe Kai too. I could see him trying to get into the water and me following him and pleading for him to not do anything dangerous. Ryan will sit on the beach and paint or draw. Or play his games.I fought the urge to smile when I thought of that. Something tells me it’ll look even better with them here. My babies have the power to make everything they touch seem magical.He was right about the people being by
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 69: Lonely On the Beach
JASONI went down to the beach after leaving Jenna alone. I kept asking myself every hour if I was ready to go back. But I couldn’t.Call me a coward. Because it is who I am. I couldn’t stand her looking at me the way she did. I didn’t want to see her label everything that happened in the past few days as a mistake. To watch her regret all the special moments I know I would carry the rest of my life believing they were the best to me.And knowing I did this to myself. That hurt the most.If I hadn’t fucked up seven years ago she would still be by my side. She would still be mine.But we probably wouldn’t have a pack to stay in. The treaty was important and people’s lives depended on it.I try to think of what my mother would have said. And all the possible answers that came to my head made me loathe myself a little more.I felt lost. I had nowhere to go. No one to talk to because no one would understand. I didn’t know what else to do. What I felt right now seemed an awful lot like how
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 70: Didn't Expect That
JENNAI didn’t see him until it was too late and we were too close. Not I would have known what to do if I’d seen him. But saw us first.Jason’s green eyes were widened and his jaw clenched. I didn’t need extra lighting in the dark to tell me he wasn’t happy with what he was seeing.Not happy sounded too simple. The right sentence should be, he was pissed. He looked pissed and seconds away from throwing hands.He must have calmed his wolf down as he stalked toward us. Closing the little distance that stood between us. He stood in front of me, completely ignoring Reed as he stared me down.My stomach knotted. Something akin to guilt making a bitter lump form in my throat. I felt like I was cheating on him. Which didn’t make sense because we weren't together. We couldn’t even be together, even if we wanted to.“What is the meaning of this?” He asks through gritted teeth. His eyes throwing daggers at me.“Hey man, what’s your problem?” I bit my lip so hard that I tasted blood.Reed shoul
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 71: Low And Lower
JASONI have already fallen off the deep end, so what if I kept going downhill from there.Never in my twenty five years of life did I think I would ever raise my hands on someone out of jealousy. But at that moment, I wasn’t thinking. It didn’t make it right, I know that. I should get a better grip of my emotions for next time.I sure hope there won’t be a next time. Because just the thought of that has my hands itching, wanting to do more damage. Again.There is no way I’ll stand by and let him have her. And yes, she isn’t a possession or mine to keep. But I don’t fucking care, I’m going to have her either way and I’m keeping her with me. By my side.I couldn’t stand another man touching her. Thinking of him seeing her secret smiles, knowing her heart. Knowing what it felt like to be loved by her.The days we spent here and her letting down her walls, letting me see her heart. It made me feel like she was in love with me for real. Not as a teenager with a stupid crush. But a woman w
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 72: Next Step
JENNA I was up and ready to leave the resort by morning. The only reason I stayed back was because of Reed. It didn’t feel right to just abandon him when I was the one that put him in that situation. No, it wasn’t even my fault. It was all Jason. He made the decision to hit an innocent man without any reason. I shouldn’t take the blame off his head. And I didn’t have a means of transportation. At least I had my phone with me. I could call an Uber or something. I called for Amaya, probably for the first time since we arrived. She seemed a little distant, which I didn't even know how I noticed. It is not like we were best friends. She was just doing her job all through. “Do you know where they took the man that was hit yesterday?” She had to have known. This is a small island and I’m guessing the people around the resort kept tabs on all that is happening. Also, nothing beats workplace gossip. She knew where he was and I asked her to take me. She looked unsure at first but then I
Saving The Alpha's Triplets 73: A Lot In Common
JENNAThe more time I spent with Reed, the more I got to know about him and the more I liked him. I know I was moving way too fast but it felt right, which again, wasn’t like me.Did I care? At that moment. No I didn’t. I actually liked how I felt when I was with him.I know I’m not seeking validation or anything. But it feels great when he just sometimes pauses to look at me. When I call him out, he says he can’t look away because it feels I’m not real.I got to learn more about him and it felt great to know we had more in common. He said he left the small town he grew up in when he was eighteen. I related with him. And though he had his father’s backing and a big bank account. It was still somewhat scary moving to an entirely new place out of the blue. Starting a life where you don’t know anyone.We spoke about how it was, starting a business, building your roots.Many times, I wanted to mention I had kids. But thinking of how he would react made me hold myself back. This might just
