CHAPTER 7 WATCH YOUR BACK

Chapter 7 Watch Your Back

Becca

I waited for her after school to let her know her place when I watched Tristan’s truck pull up behind her and I listened to him beg her to get into his truck, beg her to give him some time it made my blood boil as I watched him kiss her and hold her, carrying her and putting her in his truck and speeding off. I tried to mind-link him and he blocked me. I tried to call his phone blocked, and I tried every form of communication but I was blocked at every turn. I screamed with frustration. I ran to the pack house to tell his father what I saw. I knocked on his office door.

“Yes, come in.”

I walked into his office.

“Alpha…”

Closing the door behind me

Tristan

I couldn’t stay away from her after she disappeared for a week. I needed her like I needed to breathe. I took her to our secret spot where we used to meet before we broke up. I could hear her heart speed up.

“So, you remember our spot?”

“How could I forget?”

“I don’t want us to reject each other but I don’t know how to keep you and fulfill my responsibilities.”

She doesn’t say anything, just hops out of the truck and walks to the waterfall.

“Kay”

“I understand you have duties and responsibilities, which is why I think it's best to pull off the band-aid and end it now.”

I could hear the tears in her voice, but her back was to me. I walked up behind her holding her and she leaned her head back on my shoulder. I leaned closer kissing her neck up to her ear and nibbling it a little bit she grinded her juicy ass against me I growled picking her up and taking her back to the truck. I laid her down in the back climbing between her legs and kissing her.

“Tristan, is this a good idea?”

“You’re my mate it’s the best idea?”

Listening to her breath catch

Khione

Feeling him slide into me sometimes made me feel like I forgot how to breathe. He intertwined both our hands and stroked slow and deep whispering how much he loved me that I was the only one for him, and that he wished things were different. So many emotions flooded me, his and mine combined every moment only cementing our bond further and further into our hearts, minds, and souls. It will be so hard to let go when the time comes.

“Fuck baby you’re always so tight cum for me.”

I was screaming his name each thrust harder than the last making the truck bounce and rock with the force of him making us cum together.

“KAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!”

We spend the rest of the afternoon together studying laughing and fucking ignoring the truth of our reality.

After I made my way back home, I took a long shower before Ethan brought us dinner.

“I thought since he got you all afternoon I can get you all night.”

I smile at him.

“Now that we are mates, I love that you’re less jealous and I’d love to spend time with you.”

“Did you tell him you had another mate?”

“No, I think I’ll wait until school ends when we will be free to leave.”

He hugs me whispering how much he understands, and that he would not force me before he kisses me.

“Omega, I don’t believe I gave you permission to kiss me.”

“Please.”

“Strip and get on all fours on the bed.”

He moved quickly and eagerly. I walked into my closet and slipped on my strap-on before locking the door and turning on some music.

I stand behind him on the bed pushing him down lower pulling his lower half to hang slightly off the bed, reaching between his legs and stroking him from the back a deep moan vibrating through the mattress.

“SHHHHHH…...everyone is home remember.”

He whimpered.

“I can’t help it.”

I stand up, grab his hips, and pull him back towards me sliding the tip between his cheeks.

“Were you a good boy today, Firefly?”

“Yes, Alpha I was good please…”

“Please what?”

“Please fuck me.”

He wiggled his ass trying to get it to slip in I smacked his ass making him moan again.

“Do you deserve it?”

“Yes, I d…...”

I slam into him he screams into the mattress digging his nails into his palms. I made him cum three times a puddle of his cum on the floor between my feet, as he lay panting in my sheets. I go and shower again and by the time I step out he is sleeping I eat quietly and study before sliding into bed and holding him falling fast asleep myself.

That’s how I spent the next three months sneaking off with my two mates. I haven’t been able to tell Tristan the truth, but Ethan knows everything helping me to cover my tracks. Becca has been on a constant rampage because Tristan will not touch her. Now it is time for the winter solstice.

Tristan

I was grinning from ear to ear, having Kay as my mate has been the best thing. I was standing in front of the mirror getting dressed for the winter solstice ball when someone knocked at my door letting me know my dad wanted to speak to me in his office. I sighed heavily and made my way to him.

I walk in and see my parents, the Beta family, and some of the elders. Becca’s smirk told me I was not going to leave here with the same smile I walked here with.

“Mother, Father?”

“Tristan.”

They say in unison.

“What is going on?”

“Why have you been dragging your feet?”

He asks me.

“Dragging my feet?”

“Why haven’t you rejected that omega?”

I freeze and my gaze slides to Becca.

“We know you’ve been secretly meeting her daily.”

“Why would I reject my goddess-given mate?”

“Because she’s nothing, she is not Luna material.”

“Oh, please she absolutely is, she’s fierce, protective, loving, kind, nurturing, intelligent.”

“She comes from a useless family.”

My mother says.

“No one is a better fit.”

“Becca is she comes from a good line her father a Beta.”

I couldn’t help the humorless laugh that escaped me.

“Becca is selfish, cold, unforgiving, cruel, useless, defenseless, self-centered.”

She glared at me, but no one argued those were the facts of her character, her mindset.

“Fuck you Tristan it’s just your mate bond that has you blind.”

Becca growls out.

“I’ve loved Khione since we were nine and all of us kids were playing in the woods and I fell out of the tree breaking my leg everyone ran off afraid to be blamed and she stayed by my side holding my hand to calm me reassuring me before she carried me on her back to the pack hospital. As I remember Becca you just said gross flipped your hair and walked away.”

She winced and everyone looked away. Her father cleared his throat.

“That may be the case, but you did end it with her you did promise yourself to my daughter.”

“I did no such thing I made no promise that was a plan you and my father forced onto me. And yes, I ended things at my parents’ insistence, and I broke her heart now you want me to do it again all so your daughter can get her way.”

“Tristan don’t be disrespectful.”

My mother scolded me.

“Everyone in this room has their true mate besides Becca could you honestly say you would reject your mate because someone else told you.”

There was an awkward moment of silence before my father spoke again.

“For the betterment of the pack yes, I would. But I was lucky to be mated to an alpha’s daughter.”

“This is bullshit.”

I turn to Becca.

“Why in the world do you want me to settle for you? I can’t stand you I don’t even enjoy having sex with you.”

Her father growled.

“Could’ve fooled me.”

She snorted.

“I did fool you that is the point. I have only been able to finish in your mouth closing my eyes and thinking of her.”

For a split second, I see hurt in her eyes before she covers it up, but I do not feel guilty because she wouldn’t stop forcing herself on me.

“You’re a liar”

“You’re delusional”

“TRISTAN ENOUGH!”

“Whatever the pack is waiting for this celebration this conversation can wait.”

I stormed out and I needed to see her to calm down. I hear them screaming my name but I don’t stop I hear the music coming from the hall I smell her before I see her but when I see her she’s walking in with her cousin in a green satin dress with a plunging neckline with a split up the middle literally stopping right under her delicious pussy my heart races and my dick gets hard instantly. She spots me and gives me the sweetest smile.

Khione

I loved the way he looked at me. We started walking towards each other.

“Hey”

I couldn’t stop the cheesy grin.

“Hey”

He whispered as he ran his nose up my neck.

The DJ started playing Jacob Banks Found and it was almost like everyone melted away. I only felt my two mates, as Tristan took me into his arms and danced slowly with me. What surprised me was when he started singing to me, I had not heard him sing since we broke up, and my heart ached at the familiarity of the boy I’ve loved since I could remember.

“I love you.”

He whispered.

“I love you too.”

“I don’t want to hide us anymore.”

“Wait what?”

“I want to mark you, to fully claim you.”

“Seriously”

“Yes”

I bit my lip I wasn’t expecting this as much as I was happy, I had been preparing myself for an eventual rejection. My heart clenched with guilt at the secrets I have kept from him.

“Tristan….”

“Yeah?”

He paused to look at me.

“There's somethings you need to know first.”

“Like what”

The happy glow in his eyes, in his smile, made me hesitate. Would he hate me, would I lose him, would he feel betrayed?

“I….”

Howling could be heard in the distance, and an explosion, screams. The pack mind-link went crazy as rogues attacked us. Tristan went into Alpa mate mode.

“Go to your family hide!”

“No, I can fight!”

“Don’t argue I am needed at the border. GO!”

“TRISTAN!!!!”

He was running out the door without another word.

I ran to Ethan, grabbing his hand. I went after Tristan. Before I caught up to him in front of most of the pack Becca stopped me and with no warning, she stabbed me in my stomach with a silver blade. I howled in pain as her father and the Alpha held back Ethan.

Tristan

I ripped out another rogue’s neck when I felt a white-hot searing pain in my gut making me shift to my human form and I knew, I knew it was Kay her howl shook my body as I pushed through the pain I ran back and on the ground kay was in a pool of her own blood my father and his beta holding her cousin and Becca holding the blade. I dropped to my knees crawling to Khione. This couldn’t be happening I wasn’t losing my heart, my other half the one who always held my hand no matter how much I hurt her in the past.

“Kay? Kay wake up baby please….”

My voice was so hoarse from the tears I could no longer hold in. I had forgotten about the rogues that broke through our defenses while most of us were distracted they lunged at us. When Kay’s body jerked and started shifting. I have known her our entire lives, and I never saw her shift, she never let me. Kay jumped over my head ripping the head of the rogue’s leader, standing there under the moonlight. A magnificent silver wolf with a white crescent moon on her chest and a white patch on her back her snowflake birthmark Kay’s wolf was an…...

“AN ALPHA!”

Becca screamed. Khione was an alpha wolf, not an omega and not just an alpha the crescent moon was the mark of the royal blood line she was a royal alpha, she was a Princess.

“NO!!”

She shifted back but she did another thing that blew everyone else’s mind she used magic to dress herself. A witch a fucking witch too I was torn between amazed and hurt that I had known nothing of her.

“BECCA! That was the last straw this time I will not turn the other cheek or settle for one broken bone.”

Kay’s aura was intensely oppressive even having my father and I on our knees.

“Who are you?”

My mother asked.

“Princess Khione Aniera Aruna Romario daughter of the King of Alphas Alessandro Romario and his True mate Danica Adamos the Supreme High Priestess.”

She released her aura from me, and I stood slowly running to her holding her and so did Ethan leaving me confused.

“LIAR!”

Becca screamed.
