Sue
To say that I am furious would be an understatement.
I was livid and bristling with anger, and as I looked between the three men, I got the urge to strangle them till they stopped breathing.
"What is your problem? I'm telling you that I do not want to stay here. I want to leave." I emphasize on the last word, hoping it would get through their thick skulls but once again, it was pointless.
"You can't leave." Angelo said this time and as my hands turned into fists at my sides, I had to force myself to not scream from frustration because that didn't seem like it would help my situation in any way.
"So, I'm a prisoner? Is that it?" I demanded as I glanced between them again, and from the corner of my eyes, I could see the ever scowling triplet start to massage his forehead in clear frustration.
That was Damon, the triplet who didn't even seem like he was fond of me In any way. Disinterest was starkly painted across his face since we got introduced last night, so I wondered why he was still here and why he wasn't rejecting me if he was so uninterested.
"You're not a prisoner, stunning." Landon responded this time, voice in a drawl and I let out an irritated scoff as I glared at him. He looked like all of this was amusing him, and a grim was tugging at the side of his lips.
"I'm not a prisoner but I can't leave? Can you guys listen to yourselves?" I demanded, gesturing at them with a wave of my hand. I was currently standing on the left side of the large hotel room Angelo brought me to since last night.
After he went out to talk with his brothers in private, I almost successfully escaped but he ended up catching me, and after that, I was still locked up in this room throughout the night, but a bunch of guards were placed in the room to watch me and prevent me from escaping throughout the night. I tried tricking them and even tried convincing them to let me escape but they all ignored me, leaving me to stew in annoyance throughout the night till the triplet arrived this morning.
They were currently standing on the right side of the room, and they all looked so alike that it was quite jarring. The differences between them was their hair and eye colors, apart from that, they looked the same in everything else.
Angelo had shoulder length blond hair and blue eyes. Landon had short black hair and gray eyes, and as for Damon, he had a silver buzz cut and pitch black eyes. They were all genuinely so handsome that it made them appear almost unreal in a way. It also made it impossible for me to actually believe that they'd really accept me to be their mate.
It had to be a sort of scheme, definitely. I wasn't stupid to believe people who looked like greek gods would actually accept a freak like me to be their mate, when they could have any woman they wanted.
"You want to use me as bait for my father or something, right?" I asked after a few moments, and then I folded my arms with a scoff.
"If that's your grand plan then just put an end to it because my father won't move an inch. If you haven't gotten the memo, I'm not exactly his favorite." I spat out, a brief stint of pain blooming in my chest.
"That's not our plan here. There's no hidden agenda here." Angelo said this time and I scoffed again.
"Liar. Or are you planning to use me as a way to attack my father's pack?" I blurted out and Angelo barked out a laugh.
"Your father's pack isn't that relevant to us, trust me. In Case you weren't aware, your father's pack was the one always provoking us and trying to start a fight with our pack." Landon spoke this time
"Yeah, right. That's what you're gonna say anyway but I don't believe you." I said firmly and Damon let out an irritated sigh.
"You don't have to believe us." He snapped out and I flinched, feeling taken aback.
I leveled him with an irritated look. He might look menacing and I might be a little scared but I definitely wasn't gonna act like I was right now.
"So what's gonna happen next? Are you going to release me already?" I said on a long exhale and Angelo stepped forward, a thoughtful expression across his face.
Their presences combined together was extremely intimidating. I was five foot ten inches tall, but these men seemed like they were at least six foot seven tall, so it didn't matter that I wasn't short, they still effortlessly towered over me.
And I hated that.
"We're not doing that, Sue. What we've decided is that you're gonna return back with one of us."
I blanched, instantly starting to bristle in annoyance.
"What do you mean?"
"We're had a discussion and we've decided that you'll be returning back with one of us. Since we don't stay together in the same pack but instead live as neighboring packs, you'll be returning with Damon first, then you're to spend a month with him before coming to spend a month each with the rest of us." Angelo explained and it sounded so much like they had held a thorough discussion about this topic.
That made me feel very appalled and hurt, that they saw me as some sort of object whose opinion wasn't needed at all. They had just decided that I'd be passed between them after every month like a ball and I just had to be okay with that.
Well, I wasn't okay with that. I won't ever be.
"Are you guys nuts? In Fact, scratch that, you're nuts!" I snapped out angrily. My chest was heaving with the force of my racing heart and I'd be lying if I claim to not be nervous right now, because the princes didn't seem fazed in any way.
Landon stepped forward this time and I had to force myself to not take a step back.
"Listen, Sue, I promise you that nothing's gonna happen to you. We aren't gonna hurt you, we're gonna treat you well and nicely. You're our fated mate and we're interested in accepting you. Don't make this more difficult than it's supposed to be." He spoke calmly, like he was speaking to a spooked animal.
"That's easy for you to say, but I'm the one who's being held against her will here." I reminded him and he nodded in understanding.
"The only reason why we weren't letting you leave is because we don't want to lose you after finding you." He revealed and my eyes instantly narrowed. No way was I believing that bullshit.
I folded my arms and stared between them again. They seemed pretty interested in making me stay with them, but why? Granted, I feel very flattered to not be rejected for once, and I should be happy, because this has always been my dream, but not when it was the famous monster alpha and his brothers. Their reputation wasn't only scary, it was very disturbing as well.
"How can you three even be okay with the thought of sharing a mate anyway? That's unheard of." I blurted out and Landon flashed me a grin.
"When you share a womb with someone, you tend to be alright with sharing literally everything with them." He informed me before winking and I felt the urge to slap his face.
I squared my jaw and folded my arms. "Well, no one is sharing me no matter what." I said firmly, but when Damon finally took a step forward, my breath stumbled in my chest and the dark pull in his eyes made me take a step backward before I could stop myself.
"You're returning back with me, Sue. And that's final." He spoke in a calm, deep voice that sent chills down my spine and I gulped, suddenly feeling too tongue tied to speak.
~~~
We didn't travel together.
Angelo and Landon had to go take care of other things, and as they bid me goodbye, I wanted to beg them to stay and to not leave me alone with Damon because Damon was the coldest and scariest of them all. But I held my tongue back and refused to let them touch me.
After they left in a jet, a thought settled within my heart.
I was fucked.
Damon didn't say a word to me during the ride to his pack, and I felt nervous with each passing moment. I kept my face as blank as possible, making sure to give nothing away, but I was panicking on the inside because I didn't know what awaited me in Damon's pack. Even if I wanted to keep putting up a fight, I had easily realized that it was pointless, which was why I was seated quietly right now.
We arrived at the destination at night time, and the bastard couldn't even help me out of the helicopter.
As we walked towards a large entrance, guards suddenly began to bow at Damon while I walked behind him, wishing I could disappear.
As soon as the large door got thrown open, a little kid ran out and flew at Damon, hugging his legs tightly.
"Welcome back, daddy!" He cried out happily and I did a double take, especially after a woman sauntered out, heading straight for the kid and it was clear that she was his mother.
Damon had a freaking son??!
