Chapter 7

MIA'S POV:

"My dad wasn't going to come back. He wouldn't, and it wasn't like my mother and Alpha David weren't getting intimate. If Dad was bothered about all this, he should have been back, but he hadn't returned. I'll just reject the triplets. That's all I can do now, so I can concentrate on my studies," I said, and Molly shut me out. I couldn't speak to her again, and I sighed as I took my bath in the bathroom.

Once I got out of the bathroom, I picked up a white nightdress and put it on. I then moved over to my bed to sit down and use my phone. I saw a message notification and read it. It was from Vivian Adams.

"Hey, Mia. What's up? Do you have plans for the weekend? We can go shopping, and I want to introduce you to someone," Vivian texted me, and I smiled as I read her message.

"Who is it?" I asked her, wondering if I should ask her about werewolves and why she didn't tell me about herself.

"Don't worry. You'll get to see him tomorrow," she replied, and I was curious.

"Him? Who is he?" I asked her, thinking about all the boys at the academy. I didn't interact with the guys, and they respected me, maybe because my mother was the chairwoman of the academy.

"Tomorrow, Mia. Chill," Vivian replied, and I rolled my eyes. "Fine. See you tomorrow then," I said, before our chat ended.

Smiling, I kept my phone on the shelf and lay on the bed to sleep.

I thought about the Triple L. This was the first time I was thinking about guys, and it wasn't just one guy, but three. How could a girl have three boyfriends at a time? I thought about it, smiling, as I succumbed to sleep.

In my dream, I saw Leon taking his bath, his toned abs making me aroused. I was shocked by how huge his body was. Not just that, Luis and Liam were also nàked and bathing me. As they washed my hands, my legs, and their hands reached to touch my boobs and the intimate area between my legs like I was a baby.

"Oh no!" I awoke, sweating profusely. I peered out the window and saw that it wasn't yet morning. The sky was still dark, and the time was only 3 a.m.

Touching my body, I felt hot and aroused, and I swiftly got out of bed and moved over to the window to peer outside at the scenery. Shocked, I caught sight of a massive wolf—not just one, but three black wolves with thick fur.

"No way!" I shut the window and rushed back to my bed to sleep, feeling my heart throbbing faster in my chest.

The three wolves were black, and they looked at me with their intense yellow eyes.

"Calm down, Mia. They are ours and cannot hurt you," Molly, my wolf, said with an air of confidence in her soft voice, and I was stunned.

"What? You mean those three black wolves are the Triple L? No wonder I've been seeing the wolves before. What could they be doing outside at this time of night?" I demanded from Molly, scared to peep out the window again. The distant sounds of the wolves howling filled the air.

"They’re patrolling the pack and supervising it in case of any intruders or rogues. It's customary for them to protect the pack and ensure safety too," my wolf replied, making me sigh with relief, as I didn't know that was the Triple L's job at night.

"So that means they don’t sleep at night?" I asked inquisitively, feeling sorry for them.

"They do. I'm sure they only came here because of you, and also, they felt your troubled heart and know that you're extremely worried," Molly explained, her voice gentle, and I exhaled.

"What? You mean the Triple L knows that I'm worried? How is that even possible?" I asked aloud, sitting up on my bed. I moved over to the window and looked out, but they were no longer there.

"They can read your mind, hear your inner thoughts, and feel all your worries. You'll understand better when you turn 18," she said, and I sighed and went back to my bed.

"There's no way I can understand any of this. I hope to wake up tomorrow and not remember any of this—to return to my peaceful life, not a life of me having three hot boyfriends," I said, and Molly chuckled before going silent, as she didn't want that. She wanted them, their attention, love, and to sleep with them.

Clenching my thighs, I lay on the bed and tossed around. After a few minutes of turning around on the bed and trying to find a better sleeping position, I fell asleep.

The next morning, I awoke and felt a slight headache. As I glanced at the wall clock, I saw it was after 9 a.m.

"Oh no! I overslept!" I gasped and quickly got out of bed. I knew that I wasn't going to the academy today or tomorrow, but I had promised to go out with Vivian today.

Hastily, I went into my bathroom to brush my teeth. The loud sound of a car starting in the garage caught my attention, and from my peripheral vision, I gazed out of the bathroom window as I saw my mother hugging Alpha David and kissing him passionately on his lips in the driveway.

Mom stepped aside, dressed in her white nightgown, and shockingly, as I listened more closely, I marveled that I could hear them from the top floor, despite being in the bathroom.

"Take care, babe," Mom spoke to Alpha David with a soft tone as she stood aside and waved goodbye to him.

Alpha David grinned and hopped into his black Benz before waving goodbye to my mother and driving off.

Sighing, I finished brushing my teeth, had my bath, and got out of my bathroom. As I walked into my bedroom to find a stunning dress in my closet, the sound of my mother knocking on my door caught my attention. I moved over to the door and pulled it open for her. Mom was covered with red marks on her neck, and I rolled my eyes at the sight of it.

"Mom, good morning," I grumbled, moving back into the room to find my dazzling dress.

"Morning, Mia. How was your night?" she asked, walking into my room and moving over to my window. Her hands pulled the curtains aside, and she unlocked the window frame that I had closed last night after seeing the wolves.

"It was fine, Mom," I replied with a grumble, and she asked, "What's wrong, Mia?"

"Nothing, Mom." I stood by my closet as I wanted to enter and find a dress. Mom came over to the closet and met me; she asked, "You don't have to lie to me. What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm still overwhelmed by the fact that I am truly a werewolf. How is that even possible?" I asked her, my arms crossed over my chest, my eyes watching her face, and she smiled.

"It's hereditary. You are a werewolf by birth, and that's all you need to know," Mom said, stepping into my closet to help me find a dress.

"Mom, is it possible that a werewolf can have more than one mate?" I asked her curiously as I picked a yellow dress and glanced at her face.

"Yes. It's possible. Why are you asking? Are you interested in having more than one mate? Wait a minute, I hope you're not interested in dating the Triple L? They are going to be your stepbrothers now, so you shouldn't be fascinated by them!" Mom said, a hint of warning in her voice, and I sighed.

"It's not them," I lied, feeling the bitterness in my tone as my heart ached. I lowered my head, avoiding my mother's face, and she came over to meet me.

"Mia, you can have more than one mate, but in most cases, we do have one mate. I know of a woman who has two mates, and some do marry two or three men at a time. They call them their mates, and they understand each other and don't get jealous. As they love the woman, treat her equally, and also mate with her too. It's a reverse harem thing. But why are you asking me about that? If it's not about the Triple L, then it's about who?" Mom asked, her curious eyes peering into my blue ones to know the truth, and I sighed.

"I'm just asking because I was researching about werewolves last night, and I found out that it's possible for a wolf to have more than one husband and several pups," I said, looking up at my mother's face as she was taller than me.

"It's true. But on rare occasions, in our pack, we have many women, so we do not lack. Why would one person want to have multiple mates? Anyway, that will not be your portion. I'm certain you will have only one mate. Just be positive about it and don't think of the possibility of having three mates. Alright?" Mom advised with a grin, and I sighed.
