The Alpha Triplet’s Human Mate

Blue’s POV

“You will do great studying werewolves!” My beamed totally forgetting what I told her I wanted to study.

The whole drive to Runethorne College was filled with the image of my mother’s disappointed eyes because now I know she hates me being human. She thinks linking me up with the triplets is going to minimize the damage of the daughter not having superior abilities like everyone else.

I don’t even blame her but it isn’t my fault either. She got married to a human and she gave birth to a complete human. She might be Alpha Princess but they all bow to the Moon Goddess who pairs them off.

She still doesn’t know that my main bullies are actually the triplets and the entire pack just follows behind whatever they say. For some reason they cannot stand the sight of me.

I can understand that too because humans are not welcomed within the werewolf community. They all think we are inferior to them and they don’t need us like we need them. Also correct.

I never allow that to get in my head but after being bullied my whole last year of high school when we joined the pack, I was hoping college would be somewhere I can choose and leave this forsaken place. But no

Now I’m forced to study werewolf medicine to be a little important in a world that doesn’t want me. She refused to sponsor me in human college and I cannot afford it no matter what.

That is why I plan to look for a job as soon as possible to at least be a little independent. I can’t keep depending on her and Alpha Runthorne if I want to have a say in my life.

I knocked on the door and waited patiently for it to open. The college has many hostels along with off campus for the most elite rich ones. The alpha triplets have the largest off campus with a pool, gym and everything.

I still don’t want to live here. If I had other options, I’d be squatting in a hostel with some bitchy she-wolf and still won’t even mind it.

The door was pushed open by Azriel who raised a brow at me then walked back inside. See? Total prick! He didn’t even bother trying to help me carry the bag or something. Weston would have but Azriel? Hell nah and Tristan? I wouldn’t even go there.

I carried my bags inside and stood in the middle of the living room wondering where the hell my room was. Nobody was there to lead me anywhere and now I’m standing there stranded.

Azriel was nowhere to be seen and the place was quiet. I could see the kitchen from here then doors everywhere tha I don’t know where exactly they lead to.

I moved towards the door at the far end then pushed it open only to gasp and step back when I saw a very naked Azriel. I quickly closed it and rushed back to the living room, my heart pounding in my ears.

I have always known they were hot (even had stupid crush on them at first before they turned my life hell) but I didn’t know Azriel was THIS hot.

Standing there I sent prayers to whoever is above to please not allow Azriel to tease me.

My prayers were ignored because Azriel walked out five minutes later in nothing but low hanging sweatpants, his hair still wet from whatever shower he definitely wasn’t taking when I walked in on him.

“Lost, human?” He didn’t even look at me just headed to the kitchen.

“Where’s my room?” I tried to keep my voice steady, trying not to look at the water droplets sliding down his back.

“Upstairs. Last door on the left.” He pulled open the fridge, still not giving me the courtesy of eye contact.

I grabbed my bags and started dragging them toward the stairs. Of course my room would be upstairs. Of course no one would help!

“Blue.”

I froze because he NEVER used my name. None of them did. It was always “human” or nothing at all. I turned to find him finally looking at me and something in his amber eyes made my stomach flip. Not the good kind of flip but the kind that felt like warning.

“Stay out of our way here. This isn’t high school where you had your mommy and our father playing house. This is our territory.”

Right. Because I needed the reminder that I wasn’t wanted here.

I didn’t bother responding, just hauled my bags up the stairs. My arms were screaming by the time I reached the top, and I was definitely sweating through my shirt. So much for making a good first impression on my new prison.

The last door on the left was at the end of a long hallway, as far from everything as possible.

I pushed it open and -okay. I could work with this. The room was actually nice witj big window overlooking the backyard, decent closet and attached bathroom. It was clear no one had been in here in a while from the thin layer of dust on the dresser but at least it was private.

I dropped my bags and collapsed on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

Pre-med at Runethorne College. Werewolf anatomy and supernatural biology. This was going to be hell. My phone buzzed.

Mom: Settled in okay? I’m sure the boys will take good care of you.

I laughed. I actually laughed out loud in my empty room like a crazy person. Yeah. They were already taking GREAT care of me.

I didn’t text back. Instead I got up and started unpacking because that’s what I do. I adapt and then i survive. I’ve been doing it my whole life as the disappointment daughter and I’d keep doing it here.

I was hanging up my last jacket when I felt something happening inside of me.

There is this weird pull like something tugging behind my ribcage. I pressed a hand to my chest frowning. Probably just anxiety mixed with first day jitters. A little bit of stress from Azriel being an asshole.

It faded after a minute and I shook it off.

I had orientation tomorrow then classes started next week. I needed to focus on that. On getting a job and building a life that didn’t revolve around my mother’s disappointment or the Runethorne triplets’ hatred.

I could do this!

But that night, I couldn’t sleep. The strange pulling sensation came back worse. My skin felt too hot and tight. I kicked off my blankets then pulled them back on when I got cold. Nothing felt right.

And I kept hearing footsteps in the hallway pacing back and forth outside my door.

Stop. Start. Stop. Start.

I held my breath watching the shadow under my door.

Then whoever it was walked away and I was left alone in the dark with my racing heart and this awful annoying ache that I couldn’t name.
