Chapter 77
Chapter 16: Counting down the minutes until reunited with Chasity Alex
I tumbled out of bed and rushed downstairs.f**k! I overslept. I could hardly sleepst night without my
Luna’s scent and heartbeat tofort me. I had finally fallen asleep around three or four in the
morning. I should have set an rm. It was after eight! Chasity waste for school. She wasn’t in the
kitchen. Maybe she was still asleep. She probably overslept too. I ran to her room and flung open the
door hoping I wasn’t walking in on her changing. My wolf hoped that we were walking in on her
changing. I was surprised to find Felix sitting on her bed, looking forlorn,
“Where’s Chasity?” I asked, my eyes wide. “At school,” he said simply with a shrug. I breathed a sigh of
relief. “You took her to school,” I surmised. “Yeah,” said Felix sadly. I sat next to him. “I overslept. I
thought I had made herte,” I admitted. “She has three mates, Lex,” said Felix. “There’ll always be
someone there for her! “Yeah,” I said, lying back on her bed. “What’re you doing moping around in
here?” “I miss Chasity,” said Felix. “She’s at school! You’ll see her in a few hours,” I said with augh.
“Maybe she can be home-schooled!” Suggested Felix, his face lighting up. “No!” I said sternly. Felix
frowned. “School is important,” I said. “I knew you would say that,” grumbled Felix. “She would not
learn anything in home-school with you sniffing around,” I joked. Felix grinned.
“Also, don’t you want her to socialise? School will be different for her now that she’s with us. Better.
Easier. She can be a normal teenager now for a while. She won’t have a ton of housework to rush
home and do. She can take extra-curricr activities even,” I added.
“Oh, hell no!” Said Felix. “Then I’d have to be away from her even longer!” Heined. I chuckled
to myself.
“Come on! We have our territory lines to go over! We’re expanding further eastwards and giving the
rogues in the wilderness there a chance to be adopted into the pack,” I reminded him.
“And what if they say no?!” Asked Felix. “They can shape up or ship out,” I said. “I like that,” said Felix
with a grin.
“We’ll give them the choice of joining the pack or leaving the area but there are too many rogues
eastwards for my liking. It’s time to clean up that area. It could be a problemter on if left unchecked,”
I exined.
Thend to the East of ours ran the length of our territory’s East border. The other northern packs
agreed that we had the most im to it so we were going to absorb it before they changed their minds
and tried to take it themselves.
“We can’t let the other Northern packs have that strip! It would be too much of an advantage if they had
our eastern border blocked off like that. I know we’re peaceful with them but peaceful does not have to
mean stupid!” Agreed Felix.
“We should give the rogue families a mary incentive to join the pack,” said Calix,ing into the
room.
“Baby boy Calix!” Eximed Felix.
Calix rolled his eyes. “We should offer them work and a property they can pay off over time on our pack
lands,” said Calix.
“I’m willing to give them housing free if they have useful skills or any warrior training,” I reasoned.
Felix nodded eagerly. “You never know. Some of the rogues might find their mates here on ournds.
We should be sure to mention that,” said Felix.
“Yeah, we’lly out all the pros for them,” I said. “We’ll make it worth their while to join the pack. They
can also leave peacefully. Thest resort will be to use force but thatnd can’t stay wild. It leads to the
sea. There’s a lot of potential there for the whole pack. Let’s go over it my room,” I said, getting up.
Felix snatched one of Chasity’s pillows to carry with him so he could have her smell near him. Calix
snatched another pillow for the same reason. I wanted a pillow too and she still had several on the bed
but I refused to act as childishly as my younger brothers.
“You know you want a pillow,” teased Calix as we walked up the stairs. He was dangling Chasity’s
pillow in my face. It was covered in her delicious scent. “No,” I said curtly. “We have work to do.” “Yay!
Work!” Said Felix sarcastically. Calixughed. Felix

I could scarcely stay awake listening to Alex drone on and on about territory lines. The part of being an
Alpha that I liked was the physical side to it.
“We should practice sparring,” I suggested.
“Beta Keaton’s squad have already secured the first quadrant of the new East territory,” stated Alex
triumphantly.
“Quadrant?” I asked.
“We decided to split the East territory into four from north to south. It’s arge strip ofnd,” exined
Alex.
“I wanted to be there for the actual taking over of the territory,” i fumed. What the f**k! The one part I
liked and I missed it!
“It didn’t get violent, Felix. Beta Keaton sessfully negotiated with the families of rogues there, on my
command. There was no need for intimidation,” exined Alex.
Oh. Intimidation was my specialty. “Intimidation is Felix’s specialty,” said Calix, grinning. Was I that
transparent?
Call me a caveman but the only thing I liked more than fighting also began with an F. That reminded
me. I needed to pick up my mate.
“What time is it?” I asked.
“It’s three o’clock,” said Alex, shuffling some papers.
“I need to go pick up Chasity,” I said, getting up. “Her school ends at four and it’s only like fifteen
minutes away,” said Calix,ughing. “You want me to bete?” I said, rolling my eyes.
Chasity was sneaky. If she didn’t see me parked outside the moment she walked out of that school,
she would try to take the bus or walk.
“I wannae with,” said Calix. “Me too, actually,” admitted Alex. “Look at the two of you,” I said,
shaking my head in mock dismay. “Whipped.”
“You’re the most whipped. You wanna wait outside Chasity’s school for practically an hour,” said Calix.
“I’ll drive slow,” I said impatiently, grabbing my car keys and bounding down the stairs. “You’re
incapable of driving slow,” muttered Alex, following me.
Calix came running after us. I had to hide how gleeful I was as I practically ran to the car. Calix tried to
get in the front seat but I locked that door from the inside. He pulled on it. He tapped on the window. I
rolled it down.
“Both of you, get in the backseat. The front passenger seat is for mydy,” I informed them.
They rolled their eyes but got in the back. I pulled out of the driveway and did not acutely drive slowly.
We were at the high school in ten minutes if so much. I parked right in front so I could spot my Baby as
soon as she came out. There were a few parents and elder siblings in their cars waiting. I even spotted
a few other werewolves waiting on their mates. Many of the high school seniors were eighteen and
might have found their mates already. I knew many of the pack members by name, not all because our
pack was huge but I tried tomit most faces to memory at least. I could certainly spot an outsider. It
was important for pack leaders to be aware of outsiders passing through, in case they were here to
cause trouble. It had been about fifteen minutes or more since I had gotten here. I asked Alex the time
expecting it to be almost three-thirty.
“It’s 3:07,” he said. “f**k!”I growled. Calix burst intoughter. Alex looked at me disapprovingly. “How is
that possible?!” I roared. “That’s impossible!” I insisted.
“It took me ten minutes or more to get here and I’ve been waiting like fifteen minutes and we left at
three!” I reasoned.
Alex snorted withughter.
“No, speed demon, it took you five minutes to get here and you’ve clearly been waiting two minutes
with puts you at seven minutes past three,” chuckled Alex.
“f**k,” I reiterated. Calix was in a fit ofughter.
“Maybe I should go make sure Chasity is ok,” I suggested, looking at Alex in the rearview mirror.
“Absolutely not!” He said sternly, just as I had expected. I sighed.
“Don’t you dare interrupt herst ss of the day,” he said. “You’ll look nuts like some stalker boyfriend
and that’ll reflect poorly on all three of us as Alphas.”
“He is nuts,” joked Calix. “I think Chasity is allergic to peanuts,” said Felix ofthandedly. “We get it, Felix,
you miss Chasity. She’ll be out soon,” said Alex reassuringly.
There was a long pause. Calix and Alex were talking about some random thing. “What time is it?” I
asked. “You’re acting like Calix when Mom and Dad would take us on road trips,” chuckled Alex. “That
was a low brow,” I said dryly. “It’s 3:12,” said Alex.
Texhaled slowly. The next forty-eight minutes went by agonisingly slowly. When the bell rang and
students started running outside, I almost jumped for joy. I scanned the crowd eagerly for Chasity.
“Where is she?” I grumbled.
Alex smirked. Calix wasughing at me again. They were both enjoying this a bit too much. I was
usually the least anxious about everything by far but Chasity did crazy things to me with her presence
and even crazier things with her absence. I got out of the car and leant against it. I was a cool guy,
before Chasity came along and batted her eyshes at me. I wanted to look cool and chill when she
got here like it was no big deal.
“Oh! I forgot!” Eximed Calix. “What?” I asked quickly. “Chasity’s math club is meeting today after
school. It usually runs quitete!” Said Calix. “WHAT?!” I yelped.
NO! Before I freaked out, I spotted her, walking outside with a man! My wolf snarled but as they got
closer, I recognised Coach.
“It’s Coach!” I said excitedly to my brothers. “And not funny, Calix,” I added, frowning.
Calix was in hysterics. He calmed down by the time Chasity and Coach reached us. Our old football
coach was one of Chasity’s teachers?
“Hey, squirt,” I said, smiling at Chasity and Coach as they reached the car. “Hey Coach,” my brothers
and I said in unison. “Hey, my star yers are my Alphas now!” Thundered Coach Johnson, beaming
with pride.
My brothers and I grinned. He had been the best coach honestly. He was alpha material. He was even
built like an alpha. He had been a sigma back in the day which was like a lone alpha. Dad convinced
him to join the pack when we were really little. He ended up coaching the football team and even the
wrestling team. He also helped out with sparring for the pack warriors. He was a fitness junkie in
general.
“Be very careful and gentle and patient with this girl” He said, fixing me with a stern stare. He fixed Alex
and Calix with the same stare. We all nodded. Chasity was blushing. She was so cute! I could not do
this whole sleeping separately thing on top of the fact that school was eight hours for five days a week.
I had to convince Chasity to share a bed with us again.f**k! I should have brought flowers! I was
supposed to be wooing her. I had been so eager to get here, I was forgetting the basics. I didn’t even
know what her favourite flower was. I hoped it was roses. She smelled like them. I looked at how the
sunlight was hitting her dark golden blonde curls. The wind tousled them back and forth. Yellow roses
maybe.
“Don’t think I can’t still whip you into shape,” joked Coach Johnson.
Iughed. My brothers grinned. He waved goodbye. He had just been walking Chasity out. I
remembered football practice being practically every afternoon during the season so he was probably
heading to the locker room or the field. I did not miss training in the bitter cold. In human schools, they
did not y non-winter sports like football in the snow, but we were werewolves. We were expected to
brave all types of wether and we always had a huge home advantage whenever we would y against
werewolf schools from down south. They could handle the cold too but they were not as used to it as
we were. They were also not used to ying in the snow. It was something one had to train for,
werewolf or not. We were undefeated back then, about three years ago. When we would go to sunny
ces to y, we would also win because it was soparatively easy in good weather. The team
was still undefeated to this day ording to Dad. He tended to take note of stats like that. It showed
how we measured up to other packs in terms of strength. Beating them at friendly sports games left an
impression. They knew not to mess with us otherwise.
“Bye Coach,” my brothers and I said in unison.
I held open Chasity’s door. Mydy got in the passenger seat. I shut the door and hurried to my side.
My Baby was back from school and I had a lot of home work for her. I smirked to myself.
Calix “I didn’t know Coach liked you,” I said, smiling at Chasity.
I was happy she had someone tough looking out for her at school. Coach would keep an eye on her for
us. He was a stand-up guy and people did not mess with him because of his size. He was as big as an
Alpha.
“Yeah, he’s also the math group’s coach too,” said Chasity as Felix sped home. Don’t drive so fast with
Chasity in the car! Warned Alex, over our mind-link.
Our triplet mind-link was exceptionally clearpared to the fuzzier mind-links we had with other pack
members. We were technically naturally urring clones so I always joked that our mind-link was
crystal clear because it was like one dude talking to himself. Felix slowed down withoutint or
hesitation. He was always willing to do what was best for Chasity.
The three of us snickered at the thought of Coach leading the math group. “What’s so funny?” asked
Chasity. “I just can’t picture Coach like that,” I said, more to myself than the others. Alex leant forwards,
admiring Chasity’s curls. He stiffened suddenly, his eyes wide. What’s wrong? I asked him, worried.
“That’s not the hair tie I gave back to you! It smells like another male!” said Alex angrily.
WHAT?! I was going to murder that guy. I kept my expression neutral so I would not lose my nicest
triplet reputation with Chasity. I couldn’t have other males coveting my mate and gifting her things!
Disrespectful. All gifts from male pack members should pass through us and then we would decide if it
was eptable enough to present to our Luna. Wolfw was strict. Wolves mated for life and all pack
members respected that.
You’ve got to be f*****g kidding me! Roared Felix over mind-link. He stepped on the breaks and the car
screeched to a halt.
