Mia's POV:

“It can happen. The first few times, you probably wouldn't have a notable reaction. But, after it's been introduced to the body, you can say there's a build-up. Until it's enough to cause a noticeable reaction.” The doctor explained.

“So, I'm allergic to that oxy thingy?” Genevive asked.

“Oxytocin. Yes.” The doctor replied.

“Well, shit. That's weird.” Genevive said. “So, how do I get rid of this?” she lifted her arm.

“If you take these,” he handed the prescription over to me and I read them over, “in about twenty-four to forty-eight hours, you should be as good as new.”

“Twenty-four hours?!” Genevive exclaimed. “I don't have twenty-four hours. I have a modeling shoot.”

“I'm sorry about that but I think you're going to have to cancel.” the doctor said. “Make sure to take the pills and get lots of rest. And water. You'll be fine in no time.”

The doctor left before Genevive began to make small noises. “Ohhhh…” she groaned. “This is terrible. I'm allergic to Oxytocin.”

    Mia's POV:For some reason, I glanced at the time. I needed to know how long I was going to be compelled.I remembered seeing his eyes change colors and Cassian saying, “Tell me everything that happened the day you went to Chloe and Armani’s apartment building. Every detail, including the color of the shirt you wore, the room Pedro was in, the state of the apartment, and the body language of the people you met. Everything.”When I came to, Jaxon and the others were sitting watching. I saw Jaxon's jaw thick. I guess he wasn't as pleased to find out that I had agreed to be compelled.I checked the time. Almost twenty minutes had gone by. I shivered. “Never do that again.”“I won't. These men would have killed me if I wasn't faster than they were.” Cassian said, taking notes. I noticed that his shirt was unbuttoned at the top and the tie was hanging loosely around his neck. “I had to tell them you agreed.”Damn. They'd tried to fight him?Jace sat next to me. “Are you okay? Do you feel d

    Mia's POV:There was a knock on the door. I was currently at the Triplet's mansion. Melanie came with me. She wanted to know what it was like living in a mansion, and this whole murder situation gave her the opportunity.I walked towards the door and unlocked it. There, on the other side, was a tall man with blond hair. He wore a navy blue suit with a patterned yellow tie. He wore round glasses, and I felt like I'd seen him somewhere.“Hi, how may I help you?” I asked, holding onto the door.He fished out a card from his pocket and handed it to me. “My name is Cassian D’ Angelo— defense attorney.” After I took his card, he held out his hand, and I shook it.“Oh, you must be the lawyer the Triplets talked about. Come on in.” I opened the door wider to let him in. We walked down the hallway to the first living room. “Have a seat. I'll go get them.”Cassian nodded, unbuttoning the jacket of his suit. He took a seat and crossed his legs.I looked at him briefly before taking the stairs.

    Mia's POV:I furrowed my brows. Did she just say they had evidence of me leaving the apartment?“Yes, well, Mia is denying everything, so…” Nick said. He sounded very convincing. Chloe didn't respond to that. I guess she didn't know what to say.“Did you see Pedro alive before Mia came?” Nick asked.“He was in his bedroom when I left for the gym. Like I said, I forgot something, and when I returned, Mia was hurrying out of my apartment like she'd seen a ghost. Pedro was the only one home then.” Chloe explained.We listened quietly to what she had to say in the car. I tried not to let my disbelief get the better part of my judgment. All I wanted to do was help Chloe.‘Agree that she's a little bitch?’ Cassey asked. I shushed her mentally, blocking her. I needed my focus.“Armani was returning home too, and we both talked to her for a while before she left in a hurry. We didn't think much of it until we entered the house. Armani had gotten some doughnuts he wanted to share. Pedro wouldn

    Mia's POV:The cat was out of the bag now. I had promised Chloe that I wouldn't say a word of what I saw in the apartment. But now, I was being accused of killing the man that they'd kidnapped.Did Armani frame me?So, I told them. They were extremely disappointed in me. I could tell from the way their eyes hardened ever so slightly. It brought tears to my eyes.“I was going to tell you. I didn't mean to lie,” I said, hoping that I wouldn't cry. “Chloe begged me. I trusted her and thought that I would keep it that way for a while. At least until I found out what her game was. I didn't know she was going to frame me for murder.”“Hey, hey, hey,” Jackson said, coming close to holding my head in his hands. He made me look into his grey eyes. “It's okay. Breathe. We're not angry at you.”“But you're disappointed,” I said, my voice sounding smaller than I wanted it to. I realized that I was scared of disappointing them more than anything. When this happened, I don't know.Maybe it was the

    Author's POV:Movement in the station stopped at the sound of the man's voice. Mia looked up with tear-stained eyes at the entrance. Her legs almost gave up under her.There, exuding an aura enough to make even the bravest men cower were the Triplets. Their hair was messy but it was the kind of messy that made them look sexy. They stalked forward, their eyes hard.“Who are you?” One brave detective asked, approaching them.Jackson folded his hands. He was holding himself back from punching the guy right between the eyes. But, the issue was that this was still the law. Although a lot of them here werewolves, there were still humans there. And it seemed that they didn't know who they were.Their eyes found Mia in the cell. Almost simultaneously, Mia heard their growls. But, the others didn't hear it. It took her a moment to realize— they'd mind-linked.“You seem to have the wrong person in your custody.” Jaxon began, his voice so calm.If they weren't here to save her, Mia would have be

    Mia's POV:Love?I tried not to blush. Love, I repeated in my head over and over again as Jaxon pulled away from the hug.“I don't like getting angry. Especially when it comes to you.” He admitted, stroking my hair.“I don't like when you get angry at me as well,” I said.I also realized that Melanie was right. In more ways than one, I've been more intimate with Jaxon than Jace and Jackson.And I wasn't complaining.Jaxon placed a kiss on my forehead. “I'll leave you to work.” He said, walking backward with a smile on his face.I smiled back and cocked my head slightly to the side. “Bye,” I said. He left.After that, I called Genevieve. “Hey, I just want to apologize for what happened the other day. I appreciate how you helped me out. It means a lot to me.”“I was looking out for a friend, Mia. I'm just sorry that I didn't tell the Triplets about it. I think it's Because of me that they're angry.” She said.“They're not. Jaxon just came to apologize for getting angry.” I explained.“J
