Brielle paced along the wooden flooring, muttering the odd swear word here and there as she rushed back and forth past her Beta and Gamma. The corner of Scarlett’s lips turned upright as she watched her best friend work herself into a frenzy of frustration. As insufferable as Scarlett found the triplets to be, she did enjoy the amusing affect they appeared to have on her Alpha. Brielle was never known to lose her cool, but these idiots seemed to really get under her skin. Harlie sighed as she plopped herself down on the edge of Brielle’s bed, before resting back on her elbows and twisting her lips. “Can you stop? You’re giving me whiplash with all this back and forth.” She groaned as her eyes glanced over the ceiling. Brielle came to a halt and faced her sister. “We weren’t supposed to see them outside of the challenges! The mate bond will be a distraction enough with the limited interaction, let alone if we’re getting freaking cozy over a dinner table! Ocean is stirring li
Brielle allowed a smug grin to grow on the edge of her lips as she sashayed her hips across the room, feeling confident she had managed to throw a curveball the triplets way. She looked hot and she knew it. Ocean whined within her as the leggy blonde still clung to one of the triplets like a koala bear, desperately trying to regain his attention, but Brielle knew better than to give them the satisfaction of knowing it had effected her. She had her game face on. “Wait until I get my paws on that bitch.” Ocean growled as she paced back and forth. Brielle chuckled at her wolf’s jealous threats as she took a champagne flute off a passing by waiters tray. She brought the glass to her lips, carefully taking a steady sip, before turning her attention to Harlie and Scarlett. Harlie crinkled her nose as amusement flickered in her blue orbs. “Worked like a charm.” She sighed contently. Scarlett burst into a fit of giggles as she shook her head in dismay. “Thing one l
Brielle swiftly spun to face the direction of the commotion, only to see one of the triplets storm raiding towards her. With his eyebrows furrowed and his jaw sharper than a knife, it was obvious he was furious. Gasps echoed throughout the room as each conversation came to a halt, choosing to focus their attention on them instead. As the triplet tried to take another step closer, his two brothers abruptly grabbed either shoulder to hold him back. The look of concern was evident on their faces, but Brielle noticed a hint of irritation too. Were they mad at their brother or her? “I told you not to dance with him.” Ocean muttered in infuriation, but Brielle brushed her off. In her wolfs eyes, it appeared to be one rule for her and another for them. Brielle’s eyebrows quirked as she wore an unimpressed expression, whilst she calmly watched the scene unfold. The triplet’s chest aggressively puffed in and out as he listened to the whispers from his brothers. The corners of Arlen
The night continued to be fairly drama free, once the reality of who Brielle’s new friend was dawned on the triplets. They proceeded to be on their best behaviour whilst they were graced with the presence of royalty, however that hadn’t stopped both Reid and Ryker subtly sulking in the corner as they watched their mate and the prince chat the night away. Once the official news of the Battle of the Alpha’s had been announced and the triplets made their rounds of introductions, they jumped at the opportunity to call it a night. Cassie had attached herself to River’s hip for the majority of the night, much to his irritation. Sure, he thought she was hot at first but he soon came to find her whining incredibly annoying. However, the more he watched the mate he supposedly didn’t give a damn about flaunt around with Arlen, the more he welcomed the distraction. So, much to Kane’s disapproval, when his brother’s returned to their suite, he agreed to accompany her to her r
“And then he ate my biscoff!” Brielle exclaimed in disbelief, as she informed her Beta and Gamma of the previous nights events. The corners of Scarlett’s lips turned up right as the raised a brow at her Alpha. “Did he now?” She teased. Brielle grabbed a pillow from her bed and threw it at her Gamma, before rolling her eyes at the girl’s insinuation. “You know that’s not what I meant.” Scarlett held her hands up in defeat, but the grin on her lips didn’t falter. Harlie chuckled as she reached down for the pillow off the floor, before placing it back in its rightful spot on Brielle’s bed. “He’s just trying to get under your skin, Bri.” Harlie told her. “After all, he did have to watch you flaunt around with a prince all night.” She grinned at her older sister, impressed with her choice of men. “I’d kill to be you right now.” Scarlett sighed as she plopped herself down next to Bri. “Three sexy alpha mates and a dreamy prince, what more could a girl want?” Scarlett
As Brielle headed through the castle doors, she was met with a familiar mischievous face heading towards her. She was desperately hoping she wouldn’t run into the third triplet just yet, the previous two had left her feeling exhausted. It felt as though she was swirling through a tunnel of mind games, one’s she didn’t agree to play. Arlen’s smile shined bright as his eyes landed on Brielle, he had been hoping to bump into her again before the challenges began. “Well if it isn’t the famous troublemaker herself.” Arlen teased as he joined her side. Brielle chuckled as she rolled her eyes at the prince. “I haven’t a clue what you’re talking about.” Brielle played dumb as she slightly shrugged her shoulders. “We both know you’re the trouble here, Mr Crown Prince.” Arlen let out a loud laugh, before a cheeky grin grew on his lips. Now that Brielle looked at him closely, she could see the resemblance between Arlen and the King. He was practically King Nathaniel’s twin. She had a
Brielle inhaled a deep breath as her eyes met Ryker’s. Butterflies fluttered within her upon the sight of him, whilst her mind grew frustrated by what she considered to be an unreasonable outburst. Fury transformed Ryker’s expression. He was already growing sick of the man before him. Prince or not, he needed to stay away from his mate. It seemed as though every time he turned around, he found the pair together. It felt like a dagger in the heart every time he saw her laugh with Arlen, seeing how comfortable and playful she was around him. He desperately wanted that for himself with her. Brielle noticed how Ryker’s once gorgeous blue eyes shone black with anger as they locked onto Arlen. With a loud huff and a roll of her eyes, she addressed him. “Would you calm down?” She insisted. “It’s not what it looks like.” Ryker’s brows quirked as he met Brielle’s gaze. “Oh, is it not?” He responded sarcastically. “Because what it looks like is every time I turn around he se
Brielle let out a deep breath as she stretched out her limbs. She rolled onto her side and admired the view from the floor-to-ceiling window in her room. The sun was shining bright, without a cloud in the sky. She smiled faintly as she wrapped herself deeper into her duvet, she had loved waking up to this scene the last few mornings. Oh and this bed, she thought as she sunk deeper into the mattress. She felt on cloud nine, at least for a moment, before she suddenly shot up in horror. Today was the day. The day it all really began. “Crap.” She muttered, as she shuffled to the edge of the bed. She let out a loud yawn as she scratched the side of her head, before shuffling to her en-suite. “You ready, O?” She questioned as she warily gazed at her reflection in the mirror. Ocean snorted confidently. “Please, I was born ready.” Now this was her confident Alpha wolf, Brielle had been questioning whether Ocean had turned soft lately, but her wolf’s words put a grin on her
