Filed to story: The Luna Mated to Triplet Alphas Novel
Calix’s POV
Felix and Alex were going out of their way to annoy Chasity. My inner wolf snarled, sensing she was upset. They were too pushy with her. I never used to say anything when I was younger but we were all adults now.
“All right. Cut it out. Let her go wash the wares. Mom wants the place kept as clean as possible so there’ll be less to do tomorrow.”
I watched as Chasity scurried into the kitchen. My wolf whimpered. I quieted him. She would be fine. I wished our parents used to let her eat meals with us though. My brothers were already wolfing down everything in sight. I grabbed a stack of pancakes and some bacon before it all disappeared.
“Honey, aren’t you excited about being Alpha tomorrow? My little Calix a big Alpha!” Squealed Mom.
I grinned.
“Yeah baby boy Calix, aren’t you excited?” Asked Felix, trying to spear a piece of bacon from my plate with his fork. I slid my plate away just in time and his fork slammed into the table, the tines bending slightly.
Alex burst into laughter. Felix scowled.
“I’m excited, Mom. I can’t wait to make you proud!” I said.
Mom glowed. “You already make me proud, Honey!”
Felix pretended to vomit.
“You all do!” Said Mom, narrowing her eyes at Felix. “Even you, Felix!” She specified, pinching his cheek.
Felix smiled.
“Alex, you’ll still need to guide your brothers. Although you’re all Alphas, you’re still the eldest! Birth order is important in packs,” said Dad.
“I know, Dad,” said Alex, nodding seriously.
I felt sorry for Alex sometimes. He had the least fun among the three of us and it wasn’t always by choice.
Alex’s POV
I wasn’t too excited about even more responsibility but I had been preparing for this ascent since I was a child so I was ready. The pack was very important to me along with each member as an individual. I glanced at the table. We were a family of five werewolves with four alphas present so basically everything was gone. There was still a pancake left and some bacon.
Felix reached for it but I snatched both plates up, ignoring the scowl on his face. He was the greediest and ate the fastest.
“What’s wrong, Bro?” I asked innocently.
Felix rolled his eyes at me. He got up and left the table along with the rest of the family. I put the pancake and bacon back in the centre of the table. These were for Chasity. I should have put aside more for her. She didn’t know it but I usually took extra food as though it was for me and then put it back on the platters because I knew she ate from what remained if she did not have time to cook twice, once for us and again for herself. I was sure she would be tired today. She had looked a bit weary. I would also wait and watch sometimes, staring at her from anywhere she wouldn’t spot me while she sat and ate after us. I just liked looking at her. It was creepy though. I forced myself to go to my room, resisting the urge to stay and stalk Chasity.
Felix’s POV
Alex was such a stuck-up asshole sometimes. I loved both of my brothers to the moon and back but I’d never admit that, especially not to Alex. He was so bossy because he was the eldest triplet by five minutes. I spotted him leaving behind the pancake he had refused to let me have. What the f**k! I zoomed back to the table at werewolf speed once Alex was gone. Chasity was there and had been eyeing the pancake. I snatched it up.
“I haven’t eaten anything,” she said, her eyes wide.
My wolf whimpered, demanding that I hand over the pancake. My wolf was more annoying than Alex. Now, he was growling because he had decided one pancake wasn’t enough and I should go make pancakes for Chasity. Me? Make pancakes for the little housekeeper? What sense did that make? She could just make more for herself.
“Good. You’re fat enough as it is,” I said.
I ate the pancake in two bites though the guilt was killing me. I couldn’t let my wolf rule me. He was a lot more dominant than my brothers’ wolves. He literally took over my body sometimes. I supposed I was just more in touch with my animalistic side. Chasity was not fat. I just wanted to piss my wolf off. He was snarling at me like crazy for that. He was more upset about the insult than the pancake.
Chasity looked a bit crestfallen. I knew she thought of me as a shallow asshole. I pretended to go upstairs to my room as usual while she cleared the table and went off to school. I waited until I heard the door shut. I grabbed my coat and left the house quietly. Chasity didn’t have a car obviously because she was broke. She was here to pay a debt not to make money per say. It wasn’t safe for a young girl to go walking all over the place in this vast snowy wilderness. Our pack lands were tough to traverse even for Alphas. I knew she was just walking to the bus stop but it calmed my nerves to see her off. I walked yards behind her as surreptitiously as I could. She was wearing Alex’s old coat. My wolf was kinda jealous. She would smell like Alex instead of me. At least the male scent would deter boys at school. I would rather it be my scent though. She reached the bus stop. She was early. I stood far away from her. It was a wonder how she never caught me on mornings when I followed her to the bus stop. She would be a fully-fledged she-wolf tomorrow with amazing eyesight and hearing. How would I hide from her then and still manage to secretly walk her to the bus stop? She would smell me even if she didn’t see me. f**k. The bus came and she got on it. I smiled. Ok, she was safely on her way to school. I could breathe now.
I walked back home slowly instead of running back at werewolf speed. I really needed to figure out this whole bus stop situation. When we were both in school, I would insist that Chasity ride with me in my car. I used to put her in the back and make fun of her nonstop. She would just roll her eyes. When we left high-school at eighteen, Chasity was fifteen. That was when I started secretly making sure she got to school safe. Now, I had to figure out how to get her there safely after she shifted tomorrow when she turned eighteen. Sure, she’d be a she-wolf but there were crazy wolves all over the place. She would still need my protection. Ideally, I would like to get her a car and teach her how to drive. That was a lot safer than walking through the snow alone. I could not let Chasity herself or my parents or even my brothers know the car was from me. I could make up some s**t like a sweepstakes or something and convince Chasity to enter. It would be rigged or fake obviously. Chasity would “win” the car and then I would “begrudgingly” teach her how to drive. That was a great plan!
I was so into my kick-ass idea with the sweepstakes I didn’t even notice five people on the porch at first.
“Careful! You’ll walk straight into the door, Bro!” Laughed a very familiar voice. I looked up. Calix. He was sitting on the porch with Alex and all three of our girlfriends. Tonya, Sandra and Avery. Tonya was my girlfriend and she was obviously still pissed at me. She sat on the steps, arms folded, refusing to look up at me. I didn’t wanna admit it but most of the girls I had dated lately interested me because there was something about them that reminded me of Chasity. My most recent ex had been blond and cutesy like Chasity but pale instead of golden-skinned like Chasity. Tonya was golden-skinned with big brown eyes and a very sassy but sweet personality just like Chasity but she had dark, straight hair.
“You should curl your hair, beautiful,” I said, taking some strands of her long hair and flinging them in her face playfully.
She rolled her eyes at me but smiled slightly.
“And dye it blonde!” Said Avery, Calix’s girlfriend, who was tiny and blonde.
f**k yes!
“NO!” Said Tonya, flipping her hair.
I laughed like it didn’t matter.
Sandra was on Alex’s lap where he sat on one of the porch chairs. She had bright red hair, wavy and thick, and piercing green eyes. She fixed me with a glare.
I wondered if Tonya had told her what had happened the other day when I called Tonya “Chasity” at the most inopportune time.
“Where’s the maid?” Asked Sandra snidely, narrowing her eyes.
Yeah, Tonya had told her.
“Yeah, where’s your housekeeper, Babe?” Said Tonya, glaring at me.
“You girls mean Chasity?” Asked Alex, truly clueless for once, and not liking it. Being clueless was Calix’s job.
“Felix thinks no one knows that he walks Chasity to the bus stop every morning!” Said Calix, chuckling.
What the f**k?! How did Calix know that?
“No, I don’t, Calix,” I said as though the very thought of that was ridiculous.
“What?” Snarled Tonya.
“Oh hell no,” muttered Sandra.
Avery looked dumbfounded.
Alex seemed genuinely surprised.
“Is that true, Felix?” Asked Alex.
“Of course not!” I snapped.
Is it? Asked Alex, over mind-link.
Yes, I admitted privately.
Good! He said. I offered to keep driving her after we left school as she couldn’t catch a ride with us anymore and she said no politely but when I walked off and she thought I was out out of earshot, I heard her mutter, “f**k off, for goodness sakes.”
I snorted with laughter. Alex laughed too. Chasity had a mouth on her but she tried to hide it. I stroked my chin, thinking about what lie to tell Tonya for the time being.
“I was trying to get some pot cookies honestly. There’s a guy who sells them by the bus stop,” I said. “So yeah I was going in the same direction but I wasn’t walking her to school, Calix, you idiot.”
“Whatever,” said Calix, laughing, clearly not buying it.
I know you walk her to school every single morning! He said in my mind.
Well, shut the f**k up about it, then, I snarled back.
Be nicer to her then! Said Calix.
What? I asked, surprised.
If you care about her so much that you have to stalk her to make sure she gets to the bus stop safely then be nice to her when you talk to her, he said.
Are you in love with her or something? I asked sarcastically.
Are you? He asked seriously.
“Who’s ready for a pre-birthday bar crawl?” I asked, trying to change the subject.
“Did you get them?” Asked Tonya, eyeing me suspiciously.
“Get what?” I asked.
“The pot cookies,” said Tonya.
“Oh, s**t, no. The guy wasn’t there,” I said.
“You hardly ever have those things,” commented Sandra.
It was true.
“It’s my birthday week,” I said.
She snorted with laughter.
We went to a random bar. Come tomorrow, my brothers and I would not be this carefree so we might as well enjoy it. I didn’t have much time to organise the car and the fake sweepstakes. I called my Dad’s Beta, Keaton and stood away from the group. I couldn’t have Tonya hear this. She’d go ballistic.
“Hey, Keaton?” I asked.
“Hey! Felix! My favourite new Alpha!” He said.
I used to date his daughter and he had been thrilled about potentially having an Alpha son-in-law and Alpha grandkids but we weren’t fated or anything. When she found her mate, I’d been cool about it and he respected me even more for that. I wished I could find my mate. I’d been searching for three years along with my brothers. I couldn’t wait to hold her and kiss her and make her moan under me. I pushed those x-rated thought away.
“I need a small favour,” I lied.
It was a big favour.
“Sure thing!” He said immediately.
I would be his Alpha tomorrow so it’s not like he would have said no even if he didn’t like me as much as he did.
“Can you organise a car for me, a new one, a good safe one?” I said.
“Yeah,” he said slowly.
“You want another car?” He asked, confused. “Don’t you wanna pick it yourself.”
“It has to be bought secretly. I will wire you the money. Please don’t tell anyone not even my brothers that I asked you to buy it. I swear it’s nothing sketchy but it has to be secret,” I said, feeling a tad idiotic.
“Present for a girl?” He asked knowingly.
My wolf was happy we were getting Chasity a car and wanted to shout it to the world.
“No,” I chuckled.
“Come on! You found your mate, didn’t you?” He asked.
I wish!
“Nah. I wish though. It’s a prize sorta. It’ll go to a lucky winner,” I said vaguely.
“Ok, sure,” said Keaton.
“Top secret!” I reminded him.
“My lips are sealed,” he said. “How about a Range Rover?”
“Sure!” I said. “An SUV.”
I wanted her in something I could put a grill on in the back and the front so she could ram into another car without any harm coming to her and her car. I expected Chasity to be a shitty driver. I couldn’t wait to see her face when she saw her car! Ugh, I would love it if I could admit to her that is was from me.
“Felix!” Snarled Tonya. “What’re you doing?”
“I’m coming!” I said, annoyed.
Tonya was so clingy. She would show up to my house every single day. I needed a girl who had other interests and desires besides me.
“I missed you,” said Tonya sweetly when I came back to the booth everyone was at. A couple of our bros we used to play football with had joined us. I focused all my energy on enjoying my birthday week and on not thinking about Chasity.
