Trip Book Novels & Stories

THIRD PERSON’S POV The triplets had picked a day and cleared their schedule for when they were going to get their mother. Declan did not know what to expect, because for all he knew she wasn’t even related to any witch in any manner and it was all just a big misunderstanding. But he was not going to forgive himself if he did not at least explore the chance of it, and basically two birds with one stone. He was going to find out about the woman who birthed him and also get help about his mate.

By evening, three more minor accusations had flared up across the compound, a pack member who’d been seen speaking with a trader outside territory lines, another who’d questioned Griffin’s handling of the search too loudly, a third who simply hadn’t been sleeping well and looked, according to whoever started the rumor, guilty. Cassian found her near the kitchens, exhaustion carved deep into his face. “This is what betrayal does,” he said, dropping onto a bench across from her. “It doesn’t just cost you the traitor. It costs you the whole pack’s ability to trust each other for months afterward, sometimes longer.” “How do you fix that?” “Carefully. Slowly. Usually by proving, over and over, th

Get the hell out. In the end, Sophia forced a bitter smile. "Fine, fine. It's all my fault for being so pathetic." With that, she turned and fled, leaving behind a trail of humiliation. But honestly, she only had herself to blame. Taking advantage of their distraction, I quietly slipped into a colleague's car and left. To help clear my head, Jane had signed me up for a group tour. The destination was Thornbridge—a place I had dreamed of visiting since I was young.

However, her three beloved husbands were currently fast asleep. Ann deliberately didn't wake them up for fear of not getting out of her bedroom. However, her husbands were so naughty and passionate that the triplets almost spent most of the time making love with Ann in the room if the opportunity arose. Ann wanted to take a walk to enjoy the scenery on the cruise ship. That's why she sneaked out of the room quietly and decided to go for a walk alone.

It was a crazy roller coaster of emotions. I thought the tour ended at the restaurant, but instead of driving the car to the packhouse, he took us along the road to the hills. Arriving at the top, I got out of the car. Too bad the triplets were fast asleep in the backseat and couldn't enjoy the view of the sea of stars in the night sky. Xander stood next to me. The wind teased his black hair. I swept my eyes over the entire visible area of the Blue Moon. Every light came from the safe and peaceful villages. There were no flaws in any of the pack members I met. They lived in enviable harmony.

Beside it sat a photo album. I opened it. Nina and Shane. Smiling. Close in every shot. Little notes scribbled on the backs like they meant something. I flipped another page. Two plane tickets slid out—Switzerland. A sticker was stuck on them: [The seventh stop for Shane and me as we travel the world. Can't wait.] So her "trip with a best friend" was a lie. The real trip... was always him. I'd asked her to travel with me more times than I could count. She always had an excuse.

Not that it was enough security, but at least I was okay with that. I found two women at the door who were smiling softly at me. “Good morning. The triplets requested you join them at breakfast.” One of them who had her hair in a bun said. The other one extended a box towards me and said, “They also wanted you to wear this.” I took the dress. What were those three up to? They rejected me; now they were looking for ways to win my heart? “Thank you.” I told the maids. “Tell them I'll join them soon.”

The sight was incredibly satisfying. "You're finally here! Come on, let's go!" Shanine grabbed Phoebe's hand, and the three of us boarded the train together. When we bought the tickets, I had suggested getting cheaper ones so we could spend more money on the hotel and activities. The train we took was an old one. The entire journey was slow and shaky. The car was packed, especially since it was a holiday travel peak. None of us had reserved seats. Luckily, I reacted quickly enough and grabbed an empty one as soon as we boarded.

I sigh deeply. “Oh?” I can practically hear him sit up. “Talk to me.” I lean back, rubbing a hand over my face. “They’re sending me on a trip.” “Okay… that doesn’t sound bad,” he says. “Three weeks,” I add. “Still not hearing the problem,” he replies after a slight pause. “No laptops,” I say again. “Okay, now I’m concerned,” he says. “Just go straight to the point, will you?” “With her.”

she said. "Just trust me." The word perfect did not sound right to me. I looked like I was trying too hard to fit in. The dress was too small and too short. I did not have any other choice. All I had were servant clothes and hand-me-downs that made me look poor and the worst part was that I didn’t even have money to get new dresses. Maddison reminded me of the rules. "Remember, do not go near the triplets. They do not like people in their space. Do not look them in the eye. Do not talk to them unless they talk to you first.. Please do not embarrass me."
