Chapter Four
The murmur that erupted in the hall increased and my heart slammed against my rib cage when I saw the pace at which they all walked toward me. I glanced at the Luna who shot me a death stare as I quickly stood to my feet and poured the pieces of glasses back into the tray.
Andre, Zachary, and Chase were now standing next to me and I felt their scents assault my senses, causing my nose to flare a bit. I dared not look at three of them and I knew that it was best to just return to the kitchen and wait to be lashed out by Mrs. Cara before being punished by the Luna.
I gulped and attempted to leave when Andre suddenly pulled me back by grasping me by the arm.
Stunned? Surprised? Shocked? That wasn't enough to describe how I felt at the moment. I was completely taken aback!
Andre pulled me next to him while I kept blinking my eyes a couple of times. Mustering all the courage left in me, I raised my head to steal a glance at him before ducking my head down.
He snapped his fingers before Khloe, Hailey, and Sabrina who had this fearful expression that was evident on their faces.
Andre's voice echoed through the air, causing shivers to run down my spine. It made me wonder how deep his voice had gotten in just three years.
"I saw the two of you push her so why is she being the one to apologize when you are the ones who were at fault " He snarled and I was taken aback by the fact that he was defending me!
The Andre that I knew would never! He alongside Zachary and Chase would add more fuel to the fire to humiliate me more.
"You three should apologize to her right now! We watched everything that you did and if you don't know, the way you assaulted this young lady has been recorded all along if you don't apologize to her, this video would be released on all media platforms and I know you understand what that means for your family" Zachary interjected and there was a flicker of rage in his eyes.
His voice wasn't as deep as that of Andre's and it caused me to raise my head and steal a glance at him. He was well-built, had beautiful hazel eyes, he had a romanesque nose that was sported by a high cheekbone.
He was literally like a god. They were all like demigods. Chase also had this high cheekbone that further accentuated his masculine features. He was tall, well-built, and had these brown eyes that gleamed like the rarest of stars gathered inside.
As for Andre, he was the most handsome out of the three. At least, that was what others said and no matter how handsome he was. All the bad things he did to me would never make me see him the way others did.
Zachary and Chase weren't saints either but they still had a little bit of conscience. However, Andre was much worse, he was the devil himself!
So, that explains how taken aback I was when Andre was at the forefront of those who defended me.
Not taking my eyes off Zachary, I was so lost in thoughts that I didn't even know that he was staring at me already. When I locked eyes with him, I quickly lowered my gaze and fixed it on Hailey and her g**g.
"My Alphas, you don't know the full story of what happened but I apologize for pushing her. Girls,1 let's go" Khloe forced out a smile that faltered and I could see the glint of hatred for me in her eyes.
She was about to leave when Chase stopped her by standing right in front of her. "You are not apologizing to us, you are apologizing to the young lady that you assaulted!" He said with a smile creeping at the corner of his lips.
"Young Lady?" I reiterated, wondering why in the world they were all addressing me as a young lady. Was it that they couldn't recognize me again? Have I grown so much that they don't even recognize who I am anymore?
What would they do if they found out that they were here protecting the same girl that they have always treated like trash?
A scoff escaped Khloe's lips. "I am a respected member of my pack and I am the daughter of a beta. I would never lower my head before an Omega! Never" Khloe scowled and as soon as she was done talking, Andre released his grip around my arm and ambled toward a table that had a cake placed on it.
He took the cake and strode in my direction while I was confused about what he was trying to do.
He clicked his tongue in his mouth as he walked towards us in a tiger-like manner. "So, you wouldn't apologize right?"
Khloe with so much boldness, scoffed. "I wouldn't apologize because I only owe the three of you an apology and I have apologized and......" Before she could finish talking, a gasp echoed through the room as my eyes grew wide.
Andre smashed the cake right on Khloe's face.
Chase took pictures of her and I didn't even realize that Zachary also had two cakes in his hands as he smashed them on Hailey and Sabrina's faces as well.
Everything that happened before me was so unbelievable! I wouldn't dispute the fact that three of them were mischievous but the three of them joining hands to defend me was something that I would have never in my wildest dreams imagined.
It was so unreal!
"I would make sure that I make good use of these videos that I have acquired tonight" Chase sneered as Khloe and her minions scurried out of the hall in embarrassment.
I was at a loss for words to say and didn't know what to do.
Chewing the inside of my mouth, I bowed before the three of them and quickly muttered a 'Sorry'.
I was about to leave when I heard a name that caused me to pause on my track.
"Amelia" Andre, Zachary, and Chase called.
My fingers trembled as I turned to look at them and at that moment, my nostrils were overclouded with their scents and I felt this surge of heat rising in my stomach
Before their scents were annoying and now, they drew me closer to them. It soothed my soul and it was like something that I wanted to get lost in for the rest of my life.
I could see the shocked look on their faces as they both chorused.
"Mate."
