The Omega And Her Triplet Mates

Chapter 17: Revelation

We were in a giant bathroom that was on the first floor, I hadn’t even known about it. It was done in creams and golds with brown towels. A giant bath was to the side and a shower further ahead.

He got out some medical supplies. He got a needle and some thread and I looked from that and up to him and whined.

“I’m sorry, you have a good chunk of your flesh torn and hanging from your hip, it won’t heal if we don’t stitch it.”

He tried to stitch, but I began yelping and howling in pain and fear. In the end, he got up and left.

He came back with Romulus, of all people and said to me, “Jax isn’t back yet, you two seem close, and while Romulus isn’t Jax, their scents are close enough that maybe having him nearby will help you feel like Jax is here.”

Romulus didn’t look any happier than I felt having to do this, but he sat down anyway and tugged me so that I was between his legs and held my head gently yet firmly against his chest.

Romeo began stitching again, I yelped and whined, and tried freeing myself from Romulus.

Romulus held me against his chest, so I couldn’t move and in my ear quietly said, “just pretend I’m Jax or something, focus on my smell and use me for comfort.”

I tried to do as he said, and it worked a little bit, but I still felt fearful of Romulus, so it wasn’t enough, and I couldn’t really relax with him.

His scent was slightly different like Fenris as well, where Jax’s third scent was power and Fenris’ was the forest, Romulus’ third scent was honeysuckle.

Romeo was halfway done when Jax burst into the room and grabbed me from Romulus, pulling me into his lap. “I’m here Rose, I’m here,” he soothed.

I snuffled my face into his body and inhaled his scent. Jax was my friend and I knew he would make sure no one hurt me.

Finally, I was able to relax enough and when it was over, Romeo left us alone, but Romulus stayed.

Jax stroked me for a long while, and he seemed relaxed and content like May had the longer he stroked me. “You want to change back? It should be ok to do if you want. I’m not sure if it’s less painful in your human form as you only seemed bruised, the more you change, the faster you will heal,” Jax said.

I gave a nod and stood up on shaky paws and started the changing process.

I was so used to being forced to do it in front of the pack who’d taken me that I just did it.

Both Jax and Romulus looked utterly shocked. “Rose wait! What are you doing?” Jax asked.

When I tilted my head at him confused, he shook his head in disbelief, both him and Romulus looked at one another and Romulus said in a disbelieving voice, “I think they made her change in front of them.”

It was such a deeply intimate and personal thing to change, it was when you were at your most vulnerable, anything could happen while you were mid-change and there wouldn’t be anything you could do to protect yourself. It also wasn’t a pretty sight. They had taken full advantage of that fact too and would hit me while I was changing.

Romulus quickly left the room to give me privacy and Jax said, “I’ll be waiting outside this door, ok, you should never have to change in front of anyone, Rose, not even your true mate or the alpha himself.”

He closed the door behind him and I finished the change in peace.

I barely even felt the pain of the change, I was so used to worse pain at this point, being attacked mid-change taking pain to a whole new level.

When I was done, I opened the door, hiding my body behind it and peeking my head out.

“Hey,” Jax smiled. He literally pulled his own t-shirt off and gave it to me. I pulled it on gratefully, and Romulus came over and handed Jax some spare sweatpants then left us. Jax gave them to me and I put them on and came out of the bathroom.

I asked what I’d been wondering the entire time. “Earlier, Fenris smelt me because May said my scent made her feel relaxed or something, but he seemed angry about it, do you know why?”

Jax gave a small laugh. “I think omegas are like catnip for wolves, that wasn’t why he was angry, though.”

“Then why?”

“Now isn’t really the time to talk about it.”

“Please,” I asked, needing to think of something other than what I’d gone through.

He sighed and ran a hand through his hair awkwardly. “Do you remember when he mentioned you turning twenty-one, and I said that’s when the male can find his true mate by her scent?”

I nodded.

“Well, before, your scent smelt like oranges and roses, ironically. Now it smells like oranges, roses, power, the forest, and honeysuckle.”

It took a moment for me to work it out, and then it clicked, Jax’s third scent was like power if power could have a scent, Fenris’ was the forest for his third and Romulus, honeysuckle.

“So wait, does that mean that…” I trailed off shyly, feeling too embarrassed and stupid to think an omega like myself could be mated to alphas, not just one but three! Ugly me! With three incredibly gorgeous and beautiful alphas? It was laughable.

Jax smiled softly and said, “yep, that joke I made back in the warehouse, turns out it came true, you’re our true mate Rose.”

“I have to be with three men?” I blurted.

He laughed softly and answered, “if you want us all, yes, but you don’t have to, like I said before, you can choose not to accept any of us although, you’ll always crave us, or you can choose Just one of us, or two.”

“Kinda sucks for the one left out.”

Jax shrugged, “it’s your choice, the female always gets to choose if she accepts or not, the male can choose not to accept her, but if he does accept her, she has the ultimate say, no one’s forced into it.”

“What would happen if I just chose you or Fenris, like what would happen to Romulus if I didn’t accept him.”

He laughed a boyish laugh at that and said, “I know you and Rom have this hate thing going on between you, but don’t count him out just yet. If you were to reject him though and choose me and Fenris, I think it would be like I said, you’d both still crave one another, it would be like a piece of you is missing, it might be a little easier on you as you’d still have two true mates, but it would still somewhat hurt. Think of it like a broken heart that you never get over, or the pain you feel from unrequited love.”

I was thinking all this over when he jogged me from my thoughts and said, “anyway, don’t worry about any of that right now, we have forever to figure it out and right now, you should focus on healing both mentally and physically.”

I looked at Jax and asked, “do you feel anything for me right now?”

“Rose, don’t worry about it.”

“Answer me.”

He wouldn’t meet my eyes when he very quietly said, “I do, but I’m not going to do anything, nor accept or reject until you are in a place to deal with such a big thing. I’m simply your friend for now. Ok.”

I nodded, knowing he didn’t want to talk about it anymore, and I allowed him to lead me to the kitchen.

He made sure I ate plenty, Pfft, not that I needed to, I was still big, the pack hadn’t starved me.

I was eating a sandwich absolutely fine and then out of nowhere I just burst into tears. Jax quickly slid into the seat next to me and with one arm, he pulled me in against his chest. “What’s wrong?” He asked.

I was sobbing so much I couldn’t get my words out, so he whispered, “it’s ok, don’t worry, I’ve got you.” He turned to face me, so he could hold me properly.

When I’d finally calmed down enough, I asked, “you m.assacred everyone didn’t you.”

He nodded.

“Are you allowed to do that stuff in the werewolf world?”

“Nope, mum and dad don’t know about it, Fenris and May chose to help come and get you and keep my secret. I don’t regret it at all.”

“Why would Fenris help, and keep your secret? He seems the sensible one out of you all.”

“Pfft, I’m sensible Rose,” he teased and then said, “he’s my brother and as moody and boring as he is, he loves me I guess.”

I grabbed his arm and said, “wait! Didn’t he say you lot were meant to be taking over the pack in a months time? It’s been a month, so how come you’re still not alpha of the pack?”

“Dad pushed it another month, I think him and mum are worried about letting a serial killer werewolf lead the pack,” he laughed.

“But you’ll have Fenris and Romulus too, right?”

He shrugged. “Yeah, but I think dad wants us all to have a meeting first about everything.”
