Her Twin Alphas

Chapter 3

WANDA'S POV

I hadn't gotten a good night's sleep for the past few days and the bags under my eyes proved that. I had endured so much pain these past nights

Looking at myself in my cracked mirror, I couldn't recognize myself. I saw a ghostly pale face looking back at me, framed by rough hair. I had been feeling the excruciating pain of Jake cheating on me for days on end. The pain along with the betrayal I felt tore me apart from the inside out. Every touch he shared with another woman felt like a knife stabbing into my heart. The repeated torture made it impossible for me to sleep. I always felt an excruciating pain in my chest.

I sighed heavily, running a hand through my hair.

"How much s*x is he having?" I whispered to myself.

The thought made me nauseous. I had to control myself from throwing up at the thought. It seemed like he was doing this purposely just to punish me. But why? Just because I wouldn't get in the pool with him?

Luckily, I hadn't felt any pain that morning. Maybe he had stopped. Maybe the Moon Goddess had heard my silent prayers.

A knock on my door broke my thoughts.

"Wanda?" Julian's voice called from the other side. "Are you alright?"

I opened the door, trying to fake a smile for him. Julian's eyes widened when he saw my state. He had a worried look on his face.

"You look terrible," he said bluntly.

"I feel terrible," I said "But I'll be fine. I have to be."

Julian shook his head. "You need to rest. Sit out the party at the palace tonight. You can't keep pushing yourself like this."

There was a party tonight in the Alpha's castle. As an omega, the only way I could survive was by working menial jobs like serving food at parties. I didn't have the willpower to attend but I had no choice.

"I need the money, Julian," I insisted "I can't afford to miss any shifts. I have things I need to buy and I need to eat."

Julian looked at me like I had grown two heads "You're stubborn, you know that? I already told you I'll take care of you. You don't need to be so worried about money all the time"

I couldn't help the smile that formed in my lips. Julian was sweet, probably the sweetest man I had ever come across. He and his father and done so much for me already.

"You know I'm independent" I said "I can do this"

"If you must go, please be careful. And if you feel unwell, promise me you'll stop."

"I promise,"

The evening came too quickly. Dressed in a server's attire, I made my my way to the servants' quarters. When I got there, we were given instructions for the night by the manager. After that, we went to the palace kitchen through the back door.

When I got to the kitchen, I got to work immediately. The whole place was busy. From what I heard, tonight's party is an important one and there can be no mistakes.

Other servants walked about, preparing for the night's event. I prayed silently to the Moon Goddess, begging her to keep Jake from ruining this night for me. I couldn't afford any mistakes at the palace. I could get punished or even banished if I messed up.

The head maid handed me a tray fillled with drinks.

"Table six," she instructed, not sparing me a glance.

I nodded, gripping the tray tightly. My hands trembled slightly as I walked to the ballroom. I walked towards the table she instructed me to serve.

When I got there, my breath got caught in my throat. Sitting there, I saw two gorgeous men.

As I stood before them, I couldn't help but be captivated by their looks. From what I could tell, they were twins.

The one by the left had tousled dark hair, with some strands covering his eyes. He had the most beautiful pair of brown eyes I had ever seen. His eyes were like diamonds, piercing and shiny. They reminded me of the ocean. I could get lost staring at them. He was so perfect that he made it hard to look away from him.

The second man was breathtaking as well but in a different way. His hair was a blonde, almost golden. His eyes were a stormy shade of blue, sparkling like jewels.

They were both seated but I could tell that they were both muscular and tall. Another thing that drew me to them was the aura of authority they had around them.

I was in awe. They were the most gorgeous men I had laid my eyes on. I had never seen them in the pack before. Who were they?

Together, they looked like a picture of perfection. I could tell that they were twins. They looked the same but had their own unique looks. Their faces were like something out of a dream. I couldn't believe they were real. They looked like they had just stepped out of a magazine.

I felt a strong pull towards them and I didn't know why. In their presence, I felt small and vulnerable, yet drawn to them, like a moth to a flame.

My heart skipped a beat, and I stood frozen for a moment, staring at them.

Before I could do anything else, a sharp pain shot through my chest. It was the feeling of Jake cheating on me again. It was so unexpected and painful. It was so excruciating that my vision started to blur.

I winced in pain, making my grip on the try loosen a bit. In that split second, one of the men moved with inhumane speed. He stood beside me and steadied my hands. His touch was warm and as soon as his skin met mine, the pain began to fade.

I stared at him in shock, unable to understand what had just happened. I didn't feel pain anymore. How did he do that? Did he have some kind of healing powers? Was he a warlock?

His eyes met mine and in that moment, everyone in the ballroom seemed to fade away. I could feel sparks just from our body contact. His touch was electric. I wanted more of him, of both of them.

Then, as if reality just dawned on me. I felt it. The bond. Not just with him, but with both of them. My wolf stirred inside me, whispering something to me.

"Mates" she whispered.

My eyes widened in surprise at the realization.

These men were my second chance mates.
