That’s a valid question, but one I’d rather not consider. I guess I don’t really want to make any choices right now. I’m still trying to wrap my mind around everything that I found out.

Why did Ares lie to me about who he was? Why did he keep the fact that he’s one-third of triplets to himself? What did he hope to gain?

I let my body relax and lean back against the pillows. Esme is looking at me as if she can extract the answer with just her eyes. I really don’t know what the right choice is. I

    ~Third Person~The three sit on the floor, their despair filling the room. Apollo and Atlas both lean on Akia for love and support. She pushes all questions aside and comforts them. Being with them brings up her own loss, but she doesn’t take the time to dwell.The Alphas tell her all about their mother as they go through her things. They each bring up different stories about her that come to their mind. There are stories that the brothers didn’t know and some that they both hold fondly in their minds.Akia listens to all of their stories, not missing the love that echoes in their words. Her heart grows knowing that they had such an amazing person in their lives, even though they lost her so early. She tried to keep her mind on the present and not wander on how they all lost someone special at young ages.One glaringly obvious thing was that Ares was

    “YOU FUCKING LIAR! YOU LIED TO ALL OF US, YOU FUCKING BASTARD!” I pull back slightly and send my fist into his stomach. He doubles over and grunts again. He lifts his head to look at me, but I push my fist into his face before I make eye contact. I punch him again, making him fall to the ground. “You tell me the fucking truth! Why did you lie?! Why did you tell us that Mom ran away when you knew she was dead?!” I’m breathing heavily, almost overwhelmed by my and Luka’s anger.Father coughs, and I notice blood sprays out. I should feel guilty, but I don’t. Mom's leaving was hard on me. I kept hoping and praying that she would return. I didn’t know what to do with myself or how to navigate my teen years. I especially had a hard time with Ares. When mom would usually be there to comfort me and walk me through things, I was left without anyone. Father was hard on Atlas because he was the oldest.

    ~Atlas~I watch Apollo storm out, confusion taking root in my soul. Something is really wrong, and I have no idea what it could be. What I do know is that whatever it is, it has Apollo and Luka in a chokehold.I look down at the folder in my hand and know that whatever is inside is going to change my life forever. I’m barely aware of Marcus in the room with me. It’s his stench that reminds me he exists.I pull my hand away from my body with the intention of opening the folder. My hands are shaking, and I can barely breathe. I take a deep breath in and slowly let it out, opening the folder as I do.The white paper is bright with words in black jumping off the page. I let my eyes skim the paper, each section making my heart drop a little more. “Wh…” My throat is thick with emotion, and my eyes are starting to blur. “Where did th

  • Three's A Crowd   XCVIII

    As crowded as it is, Ares could be in the mall, and we wouldn’t know. He could be watching us, waiting for the perfect moment to snatch me. I wanted to get out of the packhouse and even wanted to get off packlands for a while, this is true. It’s also true that I didn’t think this through all that well. I didn’t fully consider the dangers and opportunities that being on packlands provided. I probably should have listened to Atlas and Apollo and stayed where I was. I swear if I make it back home safely, I won’t question their choices again.My anxiety is in overload, and though I haven’t seen him, I swear Ares is behind every corner. I just need a moment to pull myself back together. I pull Esme into a shoe store, wanting to escape the crowd and eager to look at shoes. We walk further in, but I bump into someone on their way out. “I’m so sorry.” I don’t look up, my mind pleading for

    ~Akia~It’s been amazing having those I’m closest to under the same roof. I feel bad because I’ve been spending so much time with them, and not much time with my mates. I know they are missing me, and I miss them. I guess I’m just basking in the comfort right now. It isn’t even that my mates don’t comfort me; I just have a lot going on.As great as this has been, I’m feeling a bit stir crazy. I haven’t been off packlands since I got here. It isn’t just me feeling this way, Esme agrees. Uncle D and Auntie Kyla are telling me to settle down; it isn’t that serious. I hear them, but I just want out. “So, have you asked them yet?” I sigh and turn my head to Esme. She really, really wants to get out of here for a bit.“No, not yet.”“What are you waiting for?” Esme flops on the couch next to me. “Just ask them already, will ya? They will agree because you’re their mate.” I shake my head.“Look, they are just trying to keep us safe. What if Ares appears and snatches me?”“Goddess! It’s not l

    ~Ares~I’ve been up and down this block, grabbing women. They are supposed to be professionals, supposed to excel at making men feel good. They are all shit! I feel nothing but anger. They can’t even help me get it up!I push another one out of the car and drive off, not caring to listen to her complaints. I’m quickly losing myself, and I don’t know how to stop the fall. I don’t know how to fix everything that seems to be breaking around me.I lift the block between Adolf and me. I can barely see him in the dark corners of my mind. The only thing visible is his eyes. Well, isn’t this an interesting development? Don’t start, Adolf.Don’t start what, human? Don’t start telling the truth? Don’t explain how royally you fucked up?I KNOW, OK! I know. My chest is heaving, my breathing heavy. I know that I fu.cked up and all of this is my mess.I told you to grab her as soon as we found her. She was amenable to us. She had hearts in her eyes when she looked at us. You should have marked her

    ~Selene~I close my eyes tighter and continue my chant. There are many deities who believe that humans are useless creatures, but I don’t share that sentiment. They bring some interesting aspects to life, and I’ve been guilty of indulging once or twice.Meditation was something that drew me in the

    ~Ares~BITCH!LIAR!DID SHE FUCK THEM?! DID THEY MARK HER?! I grit my teeth, trying to calm Adolf. He’s losing his shit, and I don’t blame him. This entire thing has gotten fucked up, and I have no idea how to fix it.I lead her upstairs to the Alpha floor, not saying anything. The truth is that I

  • Three's A Crowd   XXVIII

    Selene disowned me and sent me with Nyx. The rest of my time was filled with torture. It’s the kind of thing where it’s endless, there’s no way to escape and no reprieve from it. I plotted and planned because there was no way I was going to spend eternity like that. I had to get out and make it bac

  • Three's A Crowd   XXVI

    Breakfast starts innocently enough. Apollo takes over the conversation, talking about the pack. I’m invested in every word that comes out of his mouth, and Atlas is invested in his meal. His cuts are precise, and nothing is messy on his plate. The meal is slightly awkward at the moment, but I’m sur
