All Chapters of Three's A Crowd: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

~Akia~My time in the woods was amazing. Atlas is someone that you never see coming, but when he does, he overwhelms you in the best way. We talked, and we made out a little. It was such an amazing time.I hate that he was called away to handle Alpha duties. I wanted to spend more time with him. I will say that the time we spent made me feel worse about how I handled our breakfast this morning. I’ve made a decision that I won’t do that anymore. If I have plans with one, I will not let the other interfere.My walk back to the packhouse is slow as I revisit my time with Atlas. I just want to savor our conversation and our action. Before I can brace myself, my body is pulled to the side, and my back collides with a tree.The moment my body moved, I closed my eyes, trying to keep myself grounded. When I open my eyes, I’m shocked. Ares is standing in front of me, his arm leaning against the tree trunk. His facial expression is neutral, so I have no idea what he’s thinking. “You let him all

I’m not able to say anything more to Uncle D before the front door opens. Aunt Kyla had been out and about, trying to get done with stuff before my mates get here. She wanted to be free to spend time getting to know them. Aunt Kyla walks into the house with a smile on her face. She walks over to the table and stands next to Uncle D.“I’m sure your conversation is fascinating, but there are two cars on their way to the house. I’m pretty sure your guests are here.” I hop to my feet, my heart beating a mile a minute. I’m nervous about this visit, but I know it’s necessary.I hurry to the door and throw it open. I run down the walkway as the cars stop and doors open. Apollo is the first person to step out of the car. I run into his open arms without delay. He lifts me and spins before kissing me gently. When Apollo puts me down, Atlas grabs my hand. I hurry over to him and practically melt as he wraps me in his arms. The heat from his body is doing things to me that I can’t handle.Atlas

~Ares~We follow Akia downstairs after she frantically grabbed her things. She got the call unexpectedly, but has to hurry back to school. This couldn’t have been more perfect if I had planned it myself. All I have to do is hang back, and I can end her uncle without anyone knowing it was me.“I really need ot speak to you, babygirl,” Adolf growls in my head, and I’m close to letting it loose. I don’t like his little pet name for her. That’s something her mates should be calling her, no one else.“I know Uncle D, but I really have to get back. I need to be there for an early gathering. I swear I will come back as soon as I can. Or better yet, I can call you when I get a chance and we can talk there.” I step into the area where I can lay eyes on them both.Her uncle looks exasperated, but he knows that nothing can be done. Her aunt gets a call and steps away to take it. When she comes back, she lets her mate know that she has to go in and handle an issue.It feels like the universe want

We were let right through the gate without hesitation. We were also given directions to reach the pack hospital. The moment we pulled up, I wasted no time in pulling the door open and jumping out. I’m not even sure that the car actually stopped, but I can’t be bothered with that now.I run into the clinic hospital, and I feel Apollo on my heels. I scan the waiting area, looking for my mate. I see her in the back, huddled against her aunt. I hurry over to her, and the moment our eyes meet, a sob escapes her lips. I hold my arms open, and Akia launches herself against me. I hold her close as if my embrace is enough to push the sadness out of her. Apollo appears across from me, holding on to Akia. I close my eyes and hope that she can feel the love from me.~Akia~I feel like I can finally breathe, and it’s a glorious feeling. I’m still worried about my uncle, but with my mates here, some of that worry is taken away. They rushed all the way back here for me, and I can’t express in words

~Selene~Nyx turns again for what feels like the millionth time. I swear she’s pacing so much that she’s going to make grooves in the floor. I’m honestly starting to get dizzy with all of her back and forth. “Must you keep doing that?” She turns to glare at me, then continues moving. “Wearing a hole in my floor isn’t going to solve anything.” I stretch out on my chaise, shifting to get comfortable. Nyx turns to me again with a grimace.“How can you sit there and be so… so… so calm?!”“How would you suggest I act, hmmm? What would make you happy?” Nyx lets out a strangled noise that makes me want to laugh. I know better than to do that right now, though. She’s too worked up to take a joke.“He tried to kill her uncle!” Nyx steps in front of me. “Doesn’t that mean anything to you?!” I sigh and shift in my seat again.“Of course it means something. Don’t forget he also killed her parents and his own mother. I couldn’t interfere then and I can’t interfere now.” Nyx huffs, knowing that I’m
