Triple Alpha's Threat

(GN) Ch. 120 - Trouble

Kiera POV

I don't know what came over me, but I also didn't care. Seeing Chase awake and desiring my body to be close to his was everything to me. I knew he was still too weak despite his insistence to take my body. Pleasuring him felt so incredibly natural, and it filled me with joy, and I pleased him just the way he needed.

I was so determined to leave him, but now I don't think I can be more than a few feet from his side. My fingers played in his silky black hair as I watched him fall back into a deep sleep. I had worn out the strongest Alpha, which was amusing.

I could sense his brothers outside the door, knowing our reunion wouldn't be as pleasant. I had to go to them and talk this through, though. We had more significant problems than our mate bond, and now that I rejected them, I doubt either of them wanted to be anywhere around me.

"Drake, River." I bowed my head to them in respect as I closed Chase's door behind me.

"I see our brother is being taken care of nicely." Drake looked me over with a hint of anger and amusement while River just glared at me like I was the damn destroyer of worlds.

"He isn't fully healed, but he is doing better," I confirmed.

"I'm sure you sucking him off will help him heal." River crudely commented.

"If you came here to be a dick, then just leave. I rejected you, remember." I crossed my arms in annoyance at him. I hated how River looked at me like his enemy or how he thought he controlled everyone around him.

"We didn't come for you, sweetheart." River had such hate in his words, and I knew he purposely chose that pet name to rattle me. Athena growled deep in my soul, but she was still a little dizzy from the fill our Alpha just gave us.

"Good, then leave!" I demanded, my eyes boring into River's.

"Kiera, we didn't come to fight." Drake injected, pushing River to the side, so my focus was on him.

"Why are you here then?"

"Chase wasn't well, and then he disappeared. We also had an encounter, one too close of a call to ignore. In all honesty, we aren't strong enough to defend ourselves if parted from you." The way Drake spoke, I knew he was being honest, but his words were hard to believe.

There was something different about him, too. There was no coldness in his dark green eyes. His tall, broody body was no longer tense with hatred for the world around him. He looked genuinely... scared.

"You are weak being apart from me? How is that possible? I rejected you, all of you." I nearly shouted the last part. This was too much, and I didn't want them to stay. Chase, I can handle. Chase, I wanted.

"Maybe you didn't really mean it." Drake's lip half grinned at me. Did he think this was some joke? My stomach was in knots just seeing the both of them, remembering how I rejected them and how I left them crippled in the ground.

"I meant it, and I felt the bond sever," I said through a tight jaw.

"Well, it appears to be trying to mend itself back together." Drake countered, his eyes glued to my body. I wasn't sure what he was feeling, but it wasn't hate or love, maybe indifference.

"This isn't a good idea. I don't trust you, either of you." I shot a death look at River.

"And Chase? You seem perfectly content sucking his dick dry to comfort him." River spat out.

"Are you jealous or just that much of an asshole?" I yelled back at him.

"If I wanted you, then you would be mine." River stepped closer to me. "I don't want you, not ever." He spoke with perfect clarity.
