{ Lilly POV } As I stood there admiring my wolf, I glanced at the boys, as if they read my mind they turned around giving me privacy to get dressed and not to see me naked. Although most werewolves have no issue with nudity I like to have some decency to myself. I have already been through enough. As I shifted back my wolf bounced in my head wagging her tail. “Why are you going crazy?” I asked rubbing my temples, as I lifted my head telling them I was decent, it clicked. The one word I was about to hear was going to change my world forever. “Mate.” I took a step back, this is not happening, no no no no! The triplets could sense my unease and the fear that was spreading across my face. “Before you panic, we are just as shocked as you are.” Cree said putting his hands in the air trying to show that he is just as shocked as I am. Lee and Aziel nodded in agreement. “How in the hell is this even happening? I’m not even eighteen yet!” I shrieked as my hands shook. “We are truly sorry for treating you the way we have treated you. We want a chance to make this right.” Aziel took a step forward as I took another step back. As they kept stepping towards me, my back hit something solid. Lee stood behind me placing his hands on my shoulders looking apologetic. “Just give us a chance, please?” He whispered softly as I began breathing heavy, this was all too much, to overwhelming, so many questions swirled in my head. “You three have tormented me all these years. How am I supposed to forget any of that? Not to mention I am but a servant girl that your mother has entrusted me to, I am to not have any type of romantic feelings towards any of you!” I could feel the walls closing in on me, I was starting to have a panic attack, if it wasn’t for Lee standing behind me I would have fallen. “Come with us to the pack house… Maybe we can talk some sense into mother.” Said Cree said with my wrist in his hand as Aziel grabbed my other wrist. They all smiled to one another I shook my head at them, unsure as to what I was agreeing to. Why now? Why did it take now to treat me better? “No that’s alright. If Luna sees me come home with you three on a school day no less, I will be severely punished. I do not want to risk anyone getting into trouble because of me.” I managed to yank my wrists out of their hands stepping away giving us some space. They all looked at one another nodding their heads stepping towards me once more grabbing both of my wrists. “We will handle our mother. We also have questions as to why you’re our mate, we know we have a lot to make up for but we will do our best to treat you better, we have always wanted our fated mate.” Said Lee walking behind me to the pack house along with Aziel and Cree side by side. I sighed in defeat dreading going back to face the Luna she will not agree with any of this and she will most certainly punish me for running out on a school day. We trudged through the forest until the pack house came into view. Both Aziel and Cree never letting my wrists go, the feeling of the skin contact was sending tingles all throughout my body and I shuddered from how nice it felt, I know I shouldn’t be feeling this but it for some reason felt right. Lee opened the door, one of the servants named Linda bowed then saw me with her eyes wide looking nervous, I stared her with a plea for help but she then paid attention to her masters. “Alphas…?” She asked staring at me then to the triplets. “Go tell mother that we want to speak with her, we have some questions that need to be answered.” Lee demanded while looking back at Aziel, they nodded then handed me off to Cree. “Let’s go little servant girl. Where is your room?” He asked as if he didn’t know, I pointed to the hall that led to the servants quarters. I wonder why he is asking me where my room is. He nodded at me and gestured me to lead the way. We passed several servants who seemed to be caught off guard with me being followed by one of the future alpha boys, hell I was just as surprised myself. I internally sighed as we walked up to a wooden door that looked like it has seen better days, it looked as if someone had taken a cheese grater and just went hammy on it. I went to turn the knob opening the door, it’s creaking always making me internally cringe, it was a small space, enough room to sleep and enough space to place your clothing at to get changed with. The walls were all stone, and a small window was above my cot. I looked at Cree who seemed to look as if he had entered hell, I grimaced at his reaction. I was waiting for him to say something until he finally spoke breaking the tension, “Why would my mother put you in such a horrid place to live?” He asked anger lacing his voice. I creased my brow in confusion at his statement, didn’t him and his brothers know about my situation? I was an outcast. “why would you care? You and your family have made it clear that I am nothing more than a servant girl, even though my parents told the Luna that she is my godmother.” I said looking away from him as he sighed running his fingers through his sleek black hair. “So, tell me why are we even here? Is there something I should do?” I asked him. “We are going to move you up to the top floor of the pack house.” He said rummaging through my items, I blinked, shocked, I grabbed his arm still not used to the sparks. “Whoa, wait a minute. First off, I don’t think that is such a good idea, second off, why?” I asked staring into his stormy eyes,Why were they being so nice to me all of the sudden? I couldn’t understand what was going on. If the Luna found out that the boys were being nice to me, I’m sure she would not be so lenient with me. I shuddered at the thought, Cree cleared his throat reaching out to take my hands, I hesitated but I relunctly held his hands, they were warm. “Look, I know that me and my brothers royally f****d up, but we have never wanted to shun away our fated mate, I also know that we have a lot of apologizing and groveling to do as well. I will admit it was a shock for all of us, but we wouldn’t want it any other way.” He held my gaze with his, my heart thumping so hard I thought I was going to have a heart attack. I sighed, “I understand that. I also appreciate it, but I am not willing to forgive so easily, you and your brothers have made living so hard. You’re also going to have to explain this to your so called girlfriends as well.” I looked down. He gently squeezed my hands in his giving me a soft smile. “We will make sure to let them down as easy as we can. Just know they won’t give up.” He chuckled as well as I at his notion. I cleared my throat and looked at my clothes. “I am going to get changed if that is alright with you?” I asked as he became slightly awkward but nodded. “Yes, we will have someone move your items into your new room if that is alright?” He asked “Do I have any say in that?” I laughed for the first time in what seemed like forever. “Actually, no you do not. I will just step out and let you get a change of clothes, then here after we can grab something to eat?” He asked as I let out a grateful sigh, I haven’t had anything to eat since this morning and was happy that he asked because I was growing famished. “Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Now go, I am going to change out of these stained clothing.” I waved my hands at him in a joking gesture, He just chuckled and walked out the door. As soon as the door shut I stood in my small room feeling the walls close in even more than they should. I felt like I was dreaming and that all this wasn’t real. I walked over to my nightstand I opened the small drawer staring down at the letters that were kept away from the world. I was also expecting another letter this year, it’s always on my birthday that they arrive and I never know who they are from. Slamming the drawer shut staring at it with distaste I turned towards my small run down closet and grabbed a pair of torn skinny jeans with a plain black tank top. Hurrying, I put my feet into my shoes and opened the door to see Cree scrolling on his phone. He stiffened when I had appeared. He put his phone in his pocket and smiled at me. “So, are we ready?” I asked clasping my hands together. He looked at me chuckling . “Well how about we go get something to eat.” He said grabbing my wrist as I creased my brow in confusion. I gently yanked my wrist out of his hand staring at the ground. “If the Luna sees me with you or your brothers, she is going to start asking questions.” I said softly, staring down at my tattered shoes. “So what? She will understand soon, you are our mate and the moon goddess paired you with us whether she wants to admit it or not little servant girl. So, what right does she have being upset that you?” He asked lifting my chin up to meet his gaze, my heart started to thump loudly. I swallowed hard then stepped back from him to create some distance. “I am supposed to make sure that you and your brothers are taken care of as your servant, not be romantically involved than I am already being thrown into. I’m sorry…” I hung my head walking past him, he grabbed my wrist and pushed me against the wall. My eyes went wide, my heart was thumping loudly as his face became close to mine. “You are not going anywhere.” He said softly. I didn’t like where this was going, I was growing hot with need, my stomach was dancing with butterflies and this was the last thing I wanted to happen on this already messed up crazy day. I managed to wiggle my wrists out of his grip and made a run for the door as I heard him yell after me. I didn’t care I needed to distance myself and whatever I was beginning to feel. The cold air smacked me in the face but with being a wolf it felt like a cool summers night, it felt refreshing and less suffocating. The full moon shined down as I weaved through the forest trees, running to my favorite spot where peace stands and time stops. I stopped placing my hands on my knees, panting, what was with them? Why did they feel the need to change now? All these questions swirled in my mind and I just seem to be getting absolutely nowhere. I looked at my wrist watch checking the time seeing it was one more minute until midnight. The clock ticked midnight, I sighed. Happy birthday to me. Things were getting more confusing as I was at a loss for what I should do. I leaned against the big oak tree listening to the water fall, closing my eyes, I felt connected to the earth, the bugs, the flow of water, it just seemed to relax my most darkest thoughts. Things were just so peaceful, nothing could interrupt this moment. Just as if I had jinxed myself I heard a twig snap. My ears perked up, Whipping my head around I stood up growling. I sniffed the air and scrunched my nose in disgust, how did rogues get here? “Well now. What have we here?” A man said stepping into the moonlight, he was tall with dark brown hair. He had gray eyes but they looked dead as if the life was sucked out from them. I stepped back from him as he just smiled ever so menacingly. “What do you want?” I asked as I continued to step back with every step he took towards me. He chuckled which made me shiver in disgust. “I’m here because there’s someone who wants you.” His smile turned into a hard frown as his now gray eyes went completely black. He ran towards me as I managed to dodge his attack and booked it. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. Just as I was about to shift he lunged on top of me pinning me to the ground. “I’m sure the boss wouldn’t mind if I helped myself first.” He licked his lips grinning, my eyes went wide as my body shook in fear. I screamed at the top of my lungs only to have a rough hand cover my mouth. I tried to struggle out of his grip but he managed to have one hell of a grip on my wrists. I heard the sounds of his belt buckle being undone as he was getting ready to take what was not his. He ripped my jeans along with my panties off. I shut my legs as tears were pouring out. He began running a free hand down my stomach, I was thrashing around trying to get free but nothing was working. I shut my eyes waiting for the pain but then I felt a weight being lifted and growling, looking up I saw Lee holding the rogue in the air with Cree grabbing me up off the ground placing a giant t shirt over my body. I just stood there numb. MATE! MATE! My wolf shouted in my head. I snapped my head up at them. I hurried away from the rogue, crossing my arms over my chest as Cree hugged his arm around my shoulders. I had tensed at the sudden contact. I felt another hand be placed on my back as I realized I was still subconsciously shaking from what had just happened. “What would a filthy rouge want with our mate?” Aziel spat out at the rogue. With Lee still holding the rogue by the neck the rogue smiled darkly. “Our master is waiting for you Lilly Storm.” He forced out before Lee snapped his neck. My eyes widened in shock, was he the one sending me those disturbing letters? Why now? I felt sick, my body becoming weak, just as I was about to say something my world turned dark.
