And Then There Were Four Audiobook 소설 & 이야기

My brain was still somewhat foggy from the effects of whatever it was that had me in a mess before I woke up here. “It’s been four days. Interdimensional travel is never easy on a body, especially the body of a Human.” The kind voice said. “What? Four days? How?” I murmured, trying not to sound too alarmed. I was supposed to have amnesia, remember? I bit back the urge to call out for Rowen, but I wasn’t about to give up any information. I may only be a Human, but I'm not stupid. I know how to survive.

By the end of his sentence his voice had gone croaky as pain was laced threw his blue eyes I looked down at my hands, a pain soared threw my chest not doubled over excruciating pain, but I felt it run up and down my chest, what was happening, I've never felt like this before and I feel like it's all I've been feeling for the past couple of days. "My names Four" He spoke up, his voice was back to normal now, deep and slightly raspy causing my head to snap in his direction. Four? His name was four? What type of name was four? I felt a tingly feeling soar across my neck as he spoke, I always thought his name would be something like Alec, Luca something that reminds me of power, not Four.

For now. END OF CHAPTER 4

I just told him I was going to visit Jax’s grave. At Jax’s simple headstone, I opened a bottle of his favorite strong moonshine. “Jax, I’m leaving,” I said softly to the cold stone. “I’m taking Lily somewhere far away to start a new life. Don’t worry. I’m going to fly high, just like you wanted.” The next day, at the air-shuttle port to the Storm Coast. The giant screen in the terminal was broadcasting a public hearing between the Northern and Southern Alliances. Kian was standing before all the Alliance elders.

"What do you mean by that? You pretend you don't know us? Oh, or did you have amnesia after the accident?" "Remember this carefully!" another said. "We are masters of dorm two and loyal supporters of B4. Who was it that you swore at? Immediately correct your words, loser!" "Well, he's right. It doesn't matter if you are the brightest student in this school; if you insult Hunter Abraham and the other members of B4, then you will have to face us!" "B4!" Jonea grinned. "True to their name—BEASTS Four, the four of them are monsters!"

I can't imagine spending time with him outside the hospital; I'd be too awed to speak. "All right, ladies!" Cindy taps a spoon against her glass to get our attention. "We're a book club, so we need to at least look like we're talking about this week's read." She reaches down to take a hardback book out of her bright pink beach bag. "Elin Hilderbrand's The Rumor-so much to unpack here. Who wants to start?" When none of us say a word, Cindy heaves a loud sigh. "Okay, children. I see you're going to make me work for this one. The book is told from four different points of view. Which did you relate to the most?"

Thank God Zion steps in again, smoothing out the tension like it’s nothing. “Sorry if I came off rude earlier, Hayden,” Mom says with a thin smile. “I just want Phoebe to take things seriously… especially since she doesn’t even have a mate yet.” Mate. The word drops into my stomach like a stone. If this is her reaction over something this small, what happens when she finds out the truth? That I have four mates. ** We said our goodbyes not long after. Zion handled everything—Finley left with Adonis on his bike, while Hayden and I rode back with Zion. Honestly, I just wanted to vanish, but of course, that’s not an option.

The audio on the tablet kept playing. It clearly captured Susan ordering Ms. Thompson to feed Lucas “poisoned milk powder”. “Don’t let him live too long. After some time has passed, when no one’s asking, just say he got an infection and died. The manager stood on the side, fumbling to end the livestream. But she was stopped by Sam. “Ms. Thompson, don't rush to turn off the livestream. Let everyone see it. Let others see how you and Susan swap out Lucas and plan to kill him.”

If indeed he had been abused, how was he going to cope with the mischievous four who were in men? Was he going to trust that no one would ever molest him?

The line went dead. --- End of Chapter Forty.
