VIOLET’S POV“You’re hurting me.” Were the only words I could form amidst the pain I was feeling right now. And it was as if he snapped out of whatever it was he was feeling. He released me and backed away with guilt flashing in his eyes.I had nothing to say to him at this point and I wanted to be left alone to tend to my broken heart. I turned to leave but he called after me, grabbing my arm, only gently this time like he didn’t want to break me. “Vi, wait. I’m sorry.” For what? I wanted to ask.“You don’t know what happened back there and the moment you come in, you not only drag me away but you accuse me of hurting your sister and mate right? Because I don’t matter anymore, yes?”He shook his head, his eyes holding regret. I backed away from him like he had suddenly become a plague. He tried to touch me, but the icy glare I threw at him had him rethinking his steps. He paused and sighed almost looking like he was trying to choose his next words carefully but even then I knew it wa
VIOLET POVEmotions were meant to be silent but mine weren’t. I was a strong woman who decided to give the mate bond a chance but now here I was, reduced to a woman who was quick to tears.This is fucking why I never wanted mates in this first place.I hated how easily jealous I had become and where I knew shouldn’t be something to be blamed on me, I knew it was because I had to deal with the bond of not one but three mates. It was a lot to handle and now, it was beginning to take a toll on me.I still never saw them. Bayne’s flimsy excuse angered me more because they still didn’t bother with me nor cared to know how their mate was faring. Did they even know or realise that I had gotten injured that day? “I bet they’re still with her.” My wolf hissed and my heart broke for her.She was like a walking zombie, with no emotions that were stably her own. From a broken woman, to a grumpy one and now, numb to the bones she was.But Aria did spit out words now out of jealousy. That was certa
VIOLET’S POVIt was too much, all of it. Forcing myself to be strong just because I didn’t want to appear weak even though I had been for weeks now was beginning to take a toll on me. I barely ate, and I was losing weight too fast coupled with the fact that I was trying to search for the spies myself.It was exhausting to say the least. In the past, all I had to worry about was training my warriors into becoming the best, training myself to become better and working towards getting the army stronger. And sure it was a lot of work but I handled it perfectly.The matters of the heart however, were a different case. I was right to fear it. I was right to not want it because here I was losing weight over men that obviously didn’t care about me anymore.I touched their marks on my body, just before my collar bone, it tingled but not as intensively as it should. And I knew what it meant. Our bond was not as strong as it was or it was dying off, if that made sense. So I made it a point to no
VIOLET’S POVNot another glance was sent my way despite the shock in my expression. My mouth was opened agape and my eyes as saucers, almost as if they were about to pop out. Aria howled in my head, the pain in her voice was doing nothing but breaking my heart more. How could they do this to me? Was I really no one to them?“Just leave already!” Diana screamed when she saw that I had not moved a single inch away from them. I looked over to Laura, who had the three men around her, one checking for more injuries and another wiping her tears before she was picked up by the third man.Bayne shot an icy glare at the guards waiting for me to leave and a vein popped on his forehead. “The fuck, are you two waiting for? Take her away already.” He screamed at them, making me flinch. Whatever shock I had faded away in that instant.My unbelief washed away and I was now fully awake like I should be. The guards grabbed each of my arm and yanked me backwards to make room for them to pass through an
VIOLET’S POVMy eyes squinted from the brightness that shone into the room. It was so bright I couldn’t help the banging that sounded in my ears. From the little I could see, Laura stood pulling my curtains and I wondered how she got in here and why she thought it was okay for her to.“Are you fucking crazy?” were the first words that left my mouth that morning. One could say that I clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed but if she had let me, maybe I would have rolled back on the good side of it on my own. But being in a pack and in a situation where I was constantly in pain from having to see her with my mates, it was unlikely that I would ever have a good day. “What gives you the fucking right to be here after the shit you pulled last night?”From where I was, if I wanted to kill her, I could do it and still get away with it. I could feel Aria smile at the back of my head. She was already planning things in her head and I could see right through them. For a moment I even want
VIOLET’S POVI was fuming yet feeling drained at the same time from a conversation that was clearly not in my best interest. Hurt couldn’t even describe how I was feeling and whatever courage and confidence I had put on a show with for Laura flew out the window the moment she left.My soul was left wounded and to hear her speak this morning like she had more rights than I did, maybe she does, only added salt to it.Her words cut deep but the triplets actions cut deeper. None still showed up and I was glad that Aria and I were at least past the point of waiting and caring for them to or not. I think we had gotten to the place where I much preferred if they didn’t come at all because if they did, it would only mean that they had just left Laura’s place.My mind drifted to their last visit and I could recall how close to giving in and believing their lies I had gotten. “Can’t we just leave? I don’t want to be here anymore.” Came Aria’s words. I didn’t want to be here any second but sleep
VIOLET’S POVTrust. He wanted me to trust them but how could I?He wanted me to believe that they had nothing to do with Laura and yet they were still with her.Trust us. Like it was easy. Doing this was the most difficult thing I have had to do, moving past rejection being another.I was supposed to leave, I still wanted to but I found that Aria, just like me had second thoughts about doing so.“I think we should wait and see what they’re up to.” Were her words and I loved that she and I were thinking the same thing. But I guess that could be expected, seeing as we were literally one person.And so it was. There was a type of relief I felt after hearing Cecil’s words and even though it had been a few days since he was here, I couldn’t stop thinking about it.It also didn’t help that my body missed them, I craved to have them in bed with me. And when it got to the point that it aimed to depress me, I made myself as busy as I could get.Sure, they were looking for the spies but I had t
VIOLET’S POVThey didn’t like my response for sure. Not one of them did and I relished in their jealously. How did they think that my life was going to pause for their sake when they had a woman with them all the time? It was good that they knew that just because they said for me to wait for them, - I was going to, but they didn’t need to know my plan was to make them jealous – that I would.It also pleased me to finally get some reaction, something genuine come out of them. Maybe this was a good thing. Maybe getting them jealous would bring them back to me. I highly doubt it.I knew just how possessive Alphas could get and today, here and now, they showed it. Bayne was the angriest of them all and he looked just about ready to kill someone – any man he saw close to me no doubt.“You’re not fucking going Violet. The doctor made us know that you need to rest and that’s what you’ll be spending the evening doing.” Make me! Bayne was fuming but I stared at him with a bored and blank expre
