“Don’t help then. I’ll just do it alone. Even if I die trying to find out what happened to Chasity’s parents, Chasity will never stop obsessing over it,” I said nonchalantly. “She’ll also never forget that you two didn’t help. In fact, let’s all go tell her right now that you two aren’t interested in helping me achieve her dream of reuniting with her parents. Let her know you’re just interested in pounding her pussy not in her long-awaited dreams or actual personality or anything…”
Alex cut across me, “That is completely unfair and you know it, Felix! Do you think we’re stupid? Your manipulation isn’t that hard to unmask! You put us in a position where we can’t say no without risking losing Chasity whether she runs away to do it herself or shuts herself off because we don’t do it for her!” Yelled Alex, his eyes darkening as his wolf raged within.
I shrugged.
“Yeah,” I admitted. “So are you gonna tell her you don’t want to or should I?” I asked again.
“I never said I didn’t want to. You two don’t speak for me,” said Calix bluntly.
I was, as the kids say, “shook.” I leant all the way back as I looked at Calix. He was kinda commanding respect these days. Chasity had made a man out of him.
“You want to?” Asked Alex, softening, as he looked at Calix.
“You don’t?” Asked Calix, shocked, looking at Alex.
Alex sighed.
“Of course I want to help Chasity,” admitted Alex. “But whoever her parents were running from…they thought them too powerful even for their Alpha and Luna to help.”
“We are much better warriors than Dad,” I said brazenly.
It was true. He taught us how to fight but we had a knack for it separately, and together, we were unstoppable. We were so well connected. Essentially, each of us had three vantage points in every battle.
Alex shrugged.
“I say that with love,” I added.
It was time to pour some honey on this situation.
“And…I love Chasity so much. And I love you, Alex, as meticulous as you are and you, Calix, as Mommy-struck as you are,” I said.
Calix rolled his eyes. Alex pressed his lips together.
“I love you and Calix and I’m in love with Chasity and I don’t want the fiends, who probably did kill Chasity’s parents, coming back and targeting Chasity,” growled Alex, speaking with his wolf so that his voice was much deeper.
“And we’ll wipe the floor with them if they do,” I said confidently, adding my wolf to the mix so that my voice was just as deep.
Calix’s wolf was chilling.
“Let’s do it,” said Calix with a shrug. “It’s better to draw out these people if they’re our Luna’s enemies and deal with them.”
I nodded eagerly at Baby Boy Calix as he was speaking facts.
“Essentially what you’re saying is you promised Chasity that we’d track down her parents if they’re alive or kill her parents’ killer to avenge their deaths if they’re dead,” said Alex, nodding and laying it out on the table.
“Sounds like a cool movie plot. I like it,” said Calix encouragingly.
“Yeah, I promised her that because it’s what she wants most and what we want most is her. Until the chapter with her parents has some kind of conclusion on it, she won’t be fully present in the relationship,” I explained.
Alex and Calix exchanged a glance and then looked at me with wide surprised eyes. I knew they were shocked to hear me analyse Chasity. I secretly watched human talk shows like Oprah. I knew about investment in relationships. They should give me more credit.
After a long silence, Calix said, “I think we should do it. We owe her that much, but how are we going to get Mom to be ok with this?”
“We don’t need to tell her!” I grumbled immediately.
Just when Calix had earned my respect, he brought up getting Mom’s approval.
“We might, yeah,” said Alex. “We’ll need more information on Chasity’s parents like who their old friends are, where their old haunts are.”
Shit. Alex was right. We had no leads. We didn’t know shit about Chasity’s parents. We could probably get a few helpful details from Chasity but she had been just nine years old the last time she saw her parents. She might not remember that much. She also might not know certain things, adult things, things her parents would have kept from her, details our parents might have known. We could go after some old pack busybodies but Mom was sitting on the most knowledge when it came to her estranged stepbrother and his wife.
“Calix, are you willing to sweet-talk Mom into being ok with this?” I asked.
He was the apple of Mom’s eye but Chasity was a thorn in Mom’s side. She would want to help Calix but not Chasity but it was still worth a shot. She had to get with the program sooner or later. Chasity was ours and we were hers. The deal was sealed with our marks.
“Don’t tell her about the avenging their deaths part if they’ve been murdered! Just tell her about the finding out what happened for Chasity’s peace of mind part,” Alex explained.
Calix nodded. “I can do that,” he said.
“Work in how if Chasity finds out enough about her parents, she’ll be content enough to stay, thereby safeguarding our triplet hearts!” I added.
Mom’s main grievance with Chasity was that she was gonna break our…well, mostly Calix’s, her favourite’s…hearts.
“Good angle!” Commented Alex. “Mom will eat that up!”
Calix still looked a tad apprehensive.
“You got this, Calix!” Exclaimed Alex, psyching him up.
“Come through Baby boy Calix!” I cheered.
Calix grinned. He was ready.
Calix
I had to be the one to call Mom. I was not surprised. She told me a lot about herself. She might tell me about her stepbrother, Chasity’s Dad.
I put my iPhone on loud speaker.
Mom had designed this games room herself, making it like a casino, so it could be a man cave for Dad. However, she ended up stopping the gambling parties Dad would throw because of the rowdy wolves and sore losers. Dad would still have games nights where they played pool though. They just would not use the slot machines or play cards unless they could play without gambling.
Mom usually answered on the first ring and this time was no different.
The phone rang just once.
“Calix, sweetheart, how are you?” Cooed Mom. “Mommy misses you so much!”
I was regretting putting the phone on loudspeaker. Felix was stifling his snickering. Alex was nodding, trying to prompt me.
“Miss you too, Mom!” I said so her feelings would not be hurt.
Truth be told, I was a little glad to be away from her and Dad.
She could be a tad smothering at times and I was fed up of hearing Dad tell me to “man up” just for him to turn around and treat me like a child anyway.
Also, Chasity.
Chasity, Chasity, Chasity. Every time I got close to Chasity, they managed to ruin it somehow. Now that I knew she was my fated mate, I needed time with her away from my parents to build our mate bond.
“I’m not good. Mom, I made a mistake,” I said sadly.
Alex smiled encouragingly.
“What happened, sweetheart?” Asked Mom, instantly worried.
“I…don’t hate me ok?” I said shakily.
The easiest way to get Mom on my side was to fret a bit. My brothers were egging me on. They always did this whenever they nominated me to ask Mom to let us do something as kids.
“I could never ever EVER hate you, Calix!! You are my baby boy! Now tell Mommy what happened?! She’s worried sick,” gushed Mom.
I felt a little guilty for making her worried.
“I let it slip to Chasity about how your little stepbrother is her father,” I mumbled.
There was a pause. I was a little nervous about her reaction.
“Calix, you have to be careful, hun, ok, especially around her,” warned Mom.
My wolf got a little aggravated. She was making our mate sound like a dangerous lunatic or a conniving bitch or something.
“Ok, Mommy but she asked something of me and I wanna give it to her,” I said, pressing on.
“Ok,” said Mom cautiously.
I launched right into it.
“I promised her I would help her find out what happened to her parents after that day they drove and left her at the pack house,” I explained.
Silence.
“Felix and Alex promised too!” I added. “It was either that or risk her running away to find out on her own. She could disappear too, Mom, or get hurt or…we couldn’t handle losing her, Mom. I can’t even think about it. It makes me sick,” I explained, my heart racing a little.
What if she refused to help us or tell us anything? What if she took it out on Chasity? I was not twelve years old anymore. I had to stand up for and stand with my mate.
“You know how the mate bond, don’t you, Mom?” I pleaded. “How would you react if Dad wanted to go off and solve some criminal cold case but it was super dangerous but you couldn’t stop him either!” I said, hoping she would understand.
“I…I…I would help him,” Mom spluttered reluctantly.
“Exactly, Mom, and we wanna help Chasity. We want her to be at peace with the past somewhat,” I said, finalising everything.
Mom let out a heavy sigh. I felt that twinge of guilt I used to get every time I “disappointed Mommy” when I was little. She used to speak of herself in the third person whenever she would scold me. She would only say “You’ve disappointed Mommy” though when I had done something nice for Chasity. Over time, my nice deeds towards Chasity became fewer in number, especially after that time Mom cried because I had stolen money from her wallet to buy Chasity some new shoes. Her shoes had been so worn out and my parents had not gotten her any new ones. Whenever I had reminded Mom, she had said she would “get to it eventually” and yet every time we would go shopping, she would bypass the girls’ shoes sections. I would run to the sections and grab up a few pairs and toss them among the things Mom would buy for herself or us. I would get the right sizes and everything cause Alex had helped me check the sizes. When I would get home and look for the shoes in the bags to present them to Chasity, they would be gone. I would check the receipts and sometimes the shoes were not listed meaning Mom had put them back at some point. Other times, the shoes were listed and paid for so where had they gone? What had my mother done with all those shoes, all those winter boots? I felt sick just thinking about it but it stopped me feeling sorry for Mom. I had never confronted her about the missing shoes.
“Ok,” she said, sounding as drained as I felt when I ruminated over all the things I should have done to help Chasity and stand up to Mom. “What do you need from me,” she said matter-of-factly.
Thankfully, Alex took over.
Alex
Calix was looking really uncomfortable. Confronting Mom about Chasity was not easy for him.
“Hi, Mom!” I interjected.
“Aww my Big Boy Alex!” She said.
“What were Chasity’s parents full names?” I asked, taking my specially engraved Alpha Alex pen out so I could jot down some notes in my journal.
“They were Chalice and Chase Case,” said Mom dryly.
