Chapter 31


    Chapter 31: A Nauseating Night


    The rest of the day was more of the same. Felix was stared at by everyone and was incredibly


    comfortable with this and frankly used to it. I was more used to being invisible and mostly hid behind


    Felix. Teachers were thrilled to have one of the Alphas grace their ssrooms.


    At lunchtime, everyone surrounded us, listening intently to Felix talk about anything and everything.


    They hung off his every word and tried to extra friendly with me. The four football yers who had


    come to my rescue that day came over to say hello. Felix seemed to know about them helping me. Of


    course, Calix must have told him. They all bounced knuckles with Felix and talked about ys and


    strategies when it came to football. Felix, Alex and Calix had been the star yers back when they


    were students here which was only about three years ago. Eventually we surrounded by the entire


    football team and the cheerleaders as Felix recounted how he and his brothers had been instrumental


    in winning the championship game. Everyone gasped and cheered during his tale. I ate quietly and


    kept my eyes downcast on my food. Felix nudged me.


    “What’s wrong, Baby?” He murmured in my ear.


    “Nothing,” I mumbled, smiling halfheartedly at him.


    Felix frowned.


    He had not done anything wrong, per say, but it was difficult feeling like the only thing that suddenly


    made me worthy was being mated to the triplets. Almost no one, including the triplets, had treated me


    like a person before I had been mated to the three beloved Alphas. Felix and I were invited to some


    house party by the head cheerleader, Moxie. I had no intention of going.


    “You’re not going to this party without proper supervision, ok?” Said Felix sternly.


    “I’m not going at all!”I protested.


    Felix stopped in his tracks on the way to the parking lot. “Why not?”


    He looked concerned. “Why don’t you want to go?” Asked Felix, his eyes wide. “If you want to go, one


    of us will take you, whoever’s shift it is will take you, ok?”


    I shook my head furiously. “I hate parties!”I eximed.


    Felix looked at me like I was insane.


    “Why?!” Demanded Felix incredulously.


    “Because, I hate dancing and crowds so naturally I don’t like something thatbines those two,”||


    said simply.


    Felix smirked. “Chasity, you’re in high school! You should try to enjoy it. Make some happy memories,


    “said Felix encouragingly.


    “Ok, sure, good talk,” I said dismissively, Felix frowned,


    We had reached the car. Alex was here to pick us up with Calix in the passenger seat. Felix opened the


    door for me and then he got in.


    “How’d it go?” Asked Alex as though he’d been worried.


    “Perfectly!” Purred Felix. Alex rolled his eyes but smiled, clearly relieved.


    “No more bullies?” Said Calix, looking at me, his eyes questioning me.


    “No more bullies,” I replied, smiling.


    “None, whatsoever,” added Felix. “In fact, our little Princess Chasity here is loving school and her new


    friends so much she wants to hang out with them tonight at a party they’re throwing!”


    Ugh! “No, I do not!” I said immediately.


    “A party sounds like fun!” Calix said brightly. “Why don’t we all go?” “A high school party?” Asked Alex


    twisting his mouth in disdain.


    “Nah, I know the girl who’s throwing it. Her sister is in college. It’s a joint thing with high school seniors


    and college kids,” exined Felix.


    “That sounds cool,” Alex said, smiling a little.


    “I don’t wanna go,” I wailed.


    “Why not, Luna?” Asked Alex. “I just don’t,” I grumbled.


    “Please, Goddess, let’s go have some fun!” Whined Calix. “Come on, Baby!”Felix insisted. Why were


    they so hell bent on me going to this stupid party?


    “Chasity, my Luna, you don’t know many of the pack members very well, old and young alike,” said


    Alex gently.


    “I know you’re shy, Baby, and we’re sorry if we’re part of the reason you’ve always been in your little


    shell,” added Felix.


    “But this is a good opportunity to at least get to know some of the pack members in your age group,”


    continued Calix.


    “A Luna is what holds a pack together. She’s a mother to the entire pack and the Alpha is the father


    figure,” said Alex.


    “Most Lunas try to learn the names and basic info about each member to keep a check on them, see


    who needs what. You can’t help your children if you don’t know what their issues are,” said Felix.


    “A good mother knows what’s up with all of her babies. A she-wolf has to keep a track of her cubs!”


    Calix said.


    Triple Ugh. I hated when they were right. I squirmed a little bit. Being with the triplets meant I had to be


    their Luna. I technically already was in a biological sense. I’d been fated to them and they’d mated and


    marked me. Ronnie was just holding the post for me until I finished high school. I sighed.


    “Let’s go to the stupid party,” I grumbled.


    The triplets all grinned and cheered.


    Third Person


    The triplets were ready early for the party and waiting on their mate, Chasity. They hoped this party


    would serve two purposes: one, to help their little luna get to know her pack members and two, to help


    get her mind off of whoever was out there trying to get her. They had already arranged for several pack


    warriors toe to the party dressed in in clothes as party goers just in case they should need


    back-up of any kind.


    The investigation looking into the attempted kidnapping had notified them of something concerning.


    The kidnapper, whose finger prints had all been burnt off and who did not seem to have been


    registered as a pack member, bore an interesting identifier, a full moon with a serpent curled around it.


    Didi’s tattoo.


    S


    The one she had said Chalice also had. The triplets had not shared any of this with Chasity yet. It was


    not keeping secrets. It was all part of an ongoing investigation. They wanted to present Chasity with


    somethingprehensive and satisfying. They wanted the whole story. What was the connection


    between the tattooed werewolves: a cult, a gang, a mindless trend.


    Chasity’s POV


    I was so nervous about this party. I really didn’t socialise much. I was relieved that Mina and Tina would


    be there. I had just messaged them to make sure. I wore a sparkly ck figure-hugging mini dress and


    high heels. I left my hair down. I put on red lipstick that I felt suited me. I was thinking about changing


    as I turned to and fro anxiously scrutinising myself in the mirror when Alex walked in. He raised his


    eyebrows, shing them upwards quickly. His lips parted in surprise. He gave me an “ok” sign with one


    hand. He drew me to him and pressed his nose to my neck.


    “You look gorgeous, Luna,” he murmured against my skin.


    I shivered a little as the cold nip of his nose slid along my jawline. I raised my chin so he had better


    ess to the area and he took that as an opportunity to nt kisses down my neck to my shoulder. He


    swayed with me back and forth on the spot as though we were dancing. He twirled me and dipped me.


    As he dipped me, he leant down and pressed his lips to mine.


    The triplets and I drove to the head cheerleader’s house. She lived in a sprawling mansion almost as


    large as the pack house. Out front there were dozens and dozens of cars parked in the huge driveway


    and snow-coveredwn. There were teenagers and young adults in the porch, smoking, drinking,


    laughing and nodding their heads to the upbeat base-heavy musicing from inside. As I walked up


    to the porch, I noticed several guys trailed their eyes over me and licked their lips. They quickly looked


    away and


    stiffened when they spotted the triplets with me. Felix walked in front of me and Alex and Calix were at


    either side of me protectively.


    The whole party seemed to stop or perhaps slow down as we entered. Every gaze was on us. Girls


    ogled the triplets, grinning, blushing, swooning and squealing. Guys nodded, bowing their heads


    slightly in


    respect and submission towards the Alphas. The crowd parted a little. Moxie was in a hot pink bondage


    dress and her sister from college, Roxie, was in a simr dress in a dusky pink shade. Both girls had


    light ash blond hair and big brown eyes. They seemed smug beyond belief that the triplets were at their


    house


    and their party


    “Wee, Alphas!” Squealed Moxie. “It’s an honour!” Added Roxie.


    Felix grinned. Alex nodded but kept his face neutral and Calix smiled sweetly even winking at each


    sister in turn which annoyed me honestly. Calix caught my expression and grasped my waist. I tried to


    pull away from him but hetched on to me, pressing his mouth against mine in a shockingly


    passionate kiss right in the middle of the living room where the thick of things were. All the party-goers,


    mainly the girls,“ oohed” and squealed. The guys “whoa-ed”. Everyone cheered when he broke away


    from me grinning and


    winking again. I blushed deeply and hid my face in Calix’s shirt.


    Mina and Tina found me. I threw my arms around them like they were lifesavers in the middle of the


    Ocea


    ocean. They hugged.


    “Chasity’s first party!” Squealed Tina. “Let’s get drunk!” Shrieked Mina.

    “We can’t. It’s a school night and we really shouldn’t drink because…”


    An hour and four shotster, I was pretty tipsy. I was on Felix’sp on the living room couch while he


    chilled with the same four footballers that idealised him and the other Alphas. The entire team and


    some of their mates joined us one by one, taking up all the couch space. About three dozen people


    were dancing, mostly just girls grinding on their mates on the dance floor. Calix was winning at beer


    pong, getting the ball in the right cup of beer every time surrounded by a crowd of admirers. Alex was


    in the kitchen fetching me some water. He came back. A few girls were edging closer and closer to him,


    giggling. Ugh, I was so sick of this. I drank the water quickly, feeling a little better. I Calix’s back was


    turned, Felix was deep in conversation and Alex was exining packws to the stalker girls. I climbed


    the stairs. I was out of breath. I had been told by Roxie that there was a bathroom on the


    was how he had known her sister, Moxie, the current head cheerleader. Roxie, his ex, had been head


    cheerleader back when he was the star quarterback. How cute. I grumbled inwardly. The light in the


    bathroom flickered on before I could turn it on myself. There were people around here and there but not


    as many as in the living room and half of them were passed out on the stairs or maybe just asleep. I


    realised who had turned the light on before me.


    Sandra, Avery and Tonya. The most recent ex-girlfriends of the triplets. I gulped at their pissed-off


    expressions, their arms akimbo.


    “Congrattions on your engagement, Charity!” Spat Tonya.


    “You know it’s funny, girls, I remember a certain pathetic little girl who lied to our faces saying she had


    no idea who the triplets’ mate was! Don’t you, girls?” Asked Avery.


    “Oh, yeah, I remember that. She was a maid one minute and their mate the next. You know without the


    mate bond forcing them to be into you, you’d never be their type, ever,” snapped Sandra, watching me


    up and down.


    Thugged myself feeling self-conscious and nauseated from the shots. “Do you hear me?” Asked


    Sandra angrily. “She’s ignoring us!” Said Tonya indignantly. “We’re talking to you!” Shrieked Avery.


    My stomach burned. The burning shot up my throat. I couldn’t help it. I spewed vomit all over three girls


    who already hated me. I wiped my mouth, looking at my own clean dress. Thank goodness. I nced


    at the soiled girls, six coal-coloured eyes filled with anger towards me. I gulped.
