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

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

I assumed they wouldn't stay back, but they did. It was surprising because I didn't expect that. I thought they would play it off as me speaking a bluff and go their way without listening to me. At exactly 9:50, I asked them to enter the bathroom. They did so with so much difficulty, warning me with their eyes. Mitch was the only one who didn't look at me with suspicion as he entered the bathroom. I locked it behind me and went downstairs to wait for Helen. I played everything cool, so I wouldn't look like I was expecting her. I made a cup of coffee and sipped it while waiting for her. She showed up at exactly 10, not a second later. “Thank Goddess, you are here!” I threw the door open and ushered her in, grabbing her hand. “You don't know how much this means to me.”“I'm glad.” She patted my palm with a smile. “We are friends, after all. I can't just let you wallow in sorrow without extending an arm of consolation towards you.”“You are an angel!” I gulped down the coffee and drop

MITCHNone of my brothers wished to stay back. They thought she was bluffing and only wanted to spend time with us. It took a lot of convincing before they agreed to stick around with me. And when she locked us up in the bathroom, they almost broke down the door, thinking she wanted to do something disastrous.“Chill! Summer must have her reasons. Do you think she would shut us up if she wished to harm us? She could do that effortlessly without going to such an extreme.”And that shut them up. They knew I was telling the truth. Had Summer ever wished to hurt us, she wouldn't need to lock us up to do that. She had enough power in her hands. Despite what happened between us, we still loved her too much to let her go. Had it been someone else, we would have sent them out of the house. The only reason my brothers weren't kind to her was the thoughts of her betrayal. Having another of our mates cheat on us made us seem incompetent. We took the blame, but Summer didn't know that. The inci

Everything that happened within that hour was blurry to me. I lost consciousness because of the loss of blood and was admitted to a hospital. I woke up a few hours later to find myself in an unfamiliar room. I learned from my stepbrothers that they had arrested Helen, and she was awaiting judgment in their cell. They didn't kill her on the spot like they did to the man because there were rules guiding all the werewolves, laws they all keep despite their status. All her accomplices were caught and thrown into the cell with her, to await judgment. I stayed in the hospital throughout the day and was discharged the next morning. I didn't get a concussion — lucky me. They said it was just a mild injury. Aside from the small hole at the back of my head, I was good to go. My stepbrothers wanted to drive me home, but I refused. Had I not cleared my name, I doubt they would have let me stay in the same space with them. I asked a nurse to drive me back home because I wanted nothing to do wit
