Filed to story: The Luna Mated to Triplet Alphas Novel
I was relieved that she would at least be in bed with me tonight. I had not completely blown it then. Alex let out a heavy sigh.
You’re not wrong, Felix, but you could’ve been kinder about it, said Alex in my mind.
He always knew just what to say to make me remorseful. Ugh. I wished I was better at conversations like this.
Alex rubbed Chasity’s back and kissed her cheek.
“Sleep tight, Luna,” I heard him murmur in her ear.
Alex gave me a pointed “fix this” look.
I know I was a bit harsh, I admitted.
I know the lying is on me but this is on you. Stay behind and make it right, encouraged Alex.
He left the room.
Calix hugged Chasity tightly and kissed both of her cheeks and her forehead.
Chasity is just protective of her parents’ memory because memories are all she has left of them. I know it’s make-believe when she acts like her parents were these amazing people but she needed something to get her through those years, explained Calix in my mind.
Ugh. Baby Boy Calix was right. Today was not my day. Even when I was the only one not on her bad side, I ended up putting myself there.
“I’ll be back, Goddess!” Calix promised, following Alex.
It was just me and Chasity now. I was grateful they were giving me some one on one time with her to ease the tension between us.
“I shouldn’t have yelled like that. Baby…,” I began, pausing, trying to find the right words.
“…I know you want your parents,” I said.
I wished I could magically deliver them to her. I could sense she was listening.
“I want you to have that chance but don’t go running off to do it,” I said decisively
I couldn’t believe I was doing this.
We’re doing this, insisted my wolf, in a rare addition. Don’t get me wrong. He loved snatching control and influencing my decisions but he was not a talker. He was as feral as they come in terms of Alpha wolves and that was saying something.
“I’ll help you,” I promised, feeling like I was signing all my common sense away like in that mermaid cartoon Calix used to make us watch on repeat when we were little.
Thankfully, it had the desired effect. A split second later, Chasity was sitting up in bed, her eager eyes on me.
“You mean that?” She breathed, hope blossoming all over her little face.
I nodded. She threw herself at me. Did I just say Chasity threw herself at me? Sure, I was used to girls doing that but never Chasity. This was a first. She wrapped her arms around my neck and her legs around my waist. I held her to me, wrapping her up in my arms securely. I buried my face in her fragrant silky hair, inhaling deeply. She smelled so fucking good. I knew this was not that kind of moment but I got hard instantly. Chasity had me wrapped around her little finger and she was beginning to realise that. I needed to lay down some ground rules fast.
“There’s one condition,” I said.
Chasity grew tense in my arms.
“You’re not leaving with them, once we find them,” I said.
She was grown now. She was mated and marked by her three alphas. She was essentially a Luna though she had not taken up her post officially yet. She belonged with us. It occurred to me that Mom was gonna freak the fuck out when Chasity returned from vacation our marked Luna. I was not gonna let Mom steamroll over Chasity and I was also not gonna let Chasity’s parents come between us either.
Chasity seemed to relax a bit. She did not find my condition that harsh.
“What if they’re not…” she said, stopping, unable to say what she was afraid of.
She was right. Her parents would have come back for her had they been alive, wouldn’t they? I sighed. I was still going to investigate the situation and make it right.
“Well, by find them, I mean find out the story, what happened?” I clarified.
If they were gone, I would have to rule out murder.
“Even…who did it if they’re…you know. And it’s no big deal to kill the people responsible,” I added nonchalantly, hoping that would reassure her.
I would make sure justice was served. I was an Alpha. It was what I did.
“What?” She yelped, not seeming reassured.
I laughed a little, realising she did not like the idea of me killing someone, even a murderer.
“Baby, you’re mated to three alphas. We have a huge pack to protect from rogues, vampires, wizards, witches, human werewolf hunters. You think we’ve never killed before. Even baby-boy Calix?” I said, making sure she knew softy-poo Calix had snapped necks before.
She stared at me. I could sense our wolves communicating. My wolf talked to Chasity’s she-wolf more than he talked to me. Chasity’s she-wolf was not shocked that we were skilled at killing. In fact, I could sense her pride and my own wolf’s smugness. He was basking in her admiration. Chasity, on the other hand, was shocked.
“I don’t want you killing anyone to avenge my parents if it puts you and my other two alphas in danger,” she revealed.
My heart soared. My Baby was worried for us. She didn’t want to lose us. She really wanted to be with us. She better not play strong woman and try sneaking out to help us find her parents. She could be as strong as she wanted safely at home.
“And,” I said, stressing each word. “Your pretty little ass stays home while my brothers and I do the digging and the dirty work to get to the bottom of everything!” I said firmly, and that was final.
“Why…” she started to complain.
“That part is not up for discussion,” I said, my eyes turning black at her defiance.
Shit, we had just made up. Instead of feeling scared, sad or angry, Chasity got wet for me. I smirked. So she did like a little dominating. Good. I had much more where that came from. I tossed her onto the bed with just enough force so that she bounced a little but landed unhurt. She squealed as she hit the sheets. She had not been expecting that. She looked up at me, anticipating my next move. I knew she wanted to get physical but I had a ton of shit to do now that I had promised to play cold case detective. I could not fuck this up. Also, I wanted to make her wait. I was giving her what she thought she wanted: space. That was the fastest way to make her see she did not actually want that. She giggled to herself and I almost lost it but I remained strong.
“I’ll leave you to your solo nap, Baby,” I grumbled, forcing myself to head to the door.
She pouted at me.
“It’s what you asked for!” I said pointedly.
She wiggled round, getting comfortable in the bed.
“My brothers and I suddenly have a lot of work to do, Baby. See you tonight, Princess,” I said, smirking as I left the room.
“The things I do for love!” I yelled in the hallway, knowing those chuckleheaded knuckleheads were probably around.
Alex came into view and clapped me on the back.
“Is she okay? Did you smooth things over?” He asked anxiously,
“Yes and yes,” I said. “I’m a Smooth Operator,” I said, cracking my knuckles.
Calix came into view too as I reached the end of the hallway.
“I want to nap with Chasity,” he said.
“No, Calix, let’s give her a little bit of alone time. You just told me she needed it, remember?” Said Alex.
“Oh, yeah,” said Calix, unenthused.
“We have to talk anyway,” I said, not looking forward to their reactions to what I had already promised Chasity.
“We have to talk,” repeated Alex grimly. “I can’t wait,” he said sarcastically. “Felix, what did you do?” He asked immediately.
I grinned.
“It’s bad,” said Calix softly, looking at my grin.
“I love you guys, my brothers,” I said.
“It’s really bad,” said Alex with a sigh.
“Bad to the bone,” I joked.
“If you reference another eighty’s song, I will throw you off deck,” grumbled Alex. “Just tell us what you did,” he said anxiously.
“Don’t make Alex Rock the Boat, Felix!” Snickered Calix.
“So you’re not mad at him?” I asked, stalling, gesturing towards Calix. “He’s doing it!”
Alex looked at Calix.
“Nah, that’s a seventy’s song,” said Alex. “He’s clean.”
“Why do you know the release years of all of those songs?” Asked Calix, amazed.
“He’s Alex,” I said, rolling my eyes. “That’s why!”
Alex led us to the game room.
“Why here?” I grumbled, wanting to have this talk by the bar where the alcohol was.
“There’s darts here I can throw at you when I find out what you did,” said Alex.
I shoved Alex playfully and flopped down on a couch. Alex and Calix sat.
“Talk,” prompted Alex.
Felix
I was gonna do this thing the way I did everything according to sock starch Alex: “with all the subtlety of a large bull sneaking out of a small China shop.”
“Ok, gents!” I said, clapping my hands. “I handled shit, man that I am, by promising my Baby, Madame Chasity, that we would track down her shitty parents and bring them to her alive or kill the motherfuckers who killed them if we find out they’re dead.”
Calix looked dumbfounded but he always looked like that so it was fine. He was just processing the sentence. I had used adjectives and whatnot so he would need some time. Alex glared at me and then relaxed his expression. This was a bad sign. He was about to wash his hands of it.
“I’m confused,” said Alex, lying.
He was never confused. That was anti-Alex. Confusion was a Calix thing.
“You said you promised your Baby something but then you said we when talking about your upcoming investigation,” mused Alex, stroking his chin.
I called his bluff.
