"Our dads want us to represent them at this year's Alphas summit," I told my brothers Ash and Adonis while we sat in the game room.
"Why?" Adonis asked.
"Too busy buried in mom," Ash said with a smirk.
"Okay, when you're done getting your head out of the clouds, our dads are going out of town to see about some recent vamp attacks that have been going on within the packland," I explained.
"Typical of them to leave us with women," Adonis said with a smug look.
"What about women?" Our mom asked, coming in with our sister Camilla and our grandma Elena following behind her.
"Just saying how glad we are to have you planning the summit gathering for the Alpha Kings," Ash says, getting up and hugging mom and grandma. As the youngest triplet, they always gave into him, and his puppy dog mix matched eyes.
"We will help you, yes, plus you are representing your dads as Alpha kings until the vampire issue is dealt with," Grandma Elena says, leaning against the wall.
"Fine," Ash and Adonis groan. I swear, sometimes they act like they are still two years old.
"We will start the preparations. I'm sure you will do fine representing the Alpha Kings. You three are already doing amazing, as the pack alphas," mom says.
"Plus, you never know; you may meet your mate," Camilla threw out. Now it's my turn to groan. The women look at me and laugh, but my brothers just simply glare. They know I don't want a mate. The three of us together have slept with some pack members, and they know if I find my mate, I'm going to reject her. It puts us at odds, though, because the three of us know she may get all three of us as mates.
"Well, if we do, I'm sure she will be everything I ever dreamed of," Ash states, putting emphasis on the letter I. Out of the three of us, he is the most caring, and he has only slept around once compared to Adonis and me. Ash decided to wait for his mate and be loyal to her, which I admit is a quality about him I am envious of, but I still stand by what I say. I have never and will never want a mate. I see how my mom acts around my dad's and how our grandparents are with each other. I just don't want to be subjected to that kind of commitment or weakness. That is what it is.
My brothers and I walked out and started ordering everyone to prepare for the summit. As the biggest pack in the USA, we don't need to show any weakness at all, as there are always those who look to question our authority. They question our dads, but I dare them to question my brothers and me. My brothers and I have a reputation for violence, but only half of it is true. We are only violent if, in any way, we are threatened or feel our pack is. The rumors' of our torture spread throughout the world, and we let it. It will incite fear and let those know to never question us.
While we're walking around the grounds getting things set up, I see pink eyes. Briana, or as my brothers call her, "The Pack Whore," is walking up to us. She is pretty, with her short, blackish blonde hair and green eyes. I can tell she is wearing tons of makeup, though. All three of us had a fling with her once. Somehow, she had got it in her head that we were going to mark her and make her our Luna. That will never happen.

The pack whore walks up to her with a huge smile on her face, grabbing both Ares and Adonis's arms. She throws me a lusty smile, and I roll my eyes. Ever since we slept with her, I have heard she has been telling everyone we are going to mark her and make her Luna. I haven't slept with anyone ever since, as my Lycan was very pissed I touched anyone but our mate, and he is right.
Out of the three of my brothers, I can't wait to find my mate. I know we have to put out this bad boy look, and I'm fine with that, as long as wolves stay in their place, but I always wanted someone I could just be around myself with, break down in front of, and not feel like I have to keep my guard up constantly. Adonis is okay if he finds his mate or doesn't. His attitude sort of goes both ways, but I know he is just keeping his walls half-up in case we never find her. I'm positive we will end up sharing the same mate, and Ares knows this.
He doesn't want a mate at all and just randomly sleeps around, even though our mom and dad both tell him not to or it will lead to issues, but he doesn't care. I know it's going to cause me to hate him if he rejects her if we indeed share the same mate, and he knows it too. He sleeps with the pack slut so much. I'm sure he is the reason she is still trying to worm her way into Adonis and my arms constantly.
"I'm going to help finish setting up for tomorrow": I addressed my brothers without as much as a look towards her. I know I was being rude, but I didn't want anything to do with her. If I were not drunk that one time we slept with her, I know I would never have done it to begin with. I just want my mate. Wherever she is,

We watched Ash's walk-off, seeming annoyed. I know it was because Briana linked arms with Ares and me. I'll admit I'm annoyed too, but I'm more chill, so I don't let it get to me. Besides, she's never done anything to me to make me not like her. Ares seems more interested in her than we are anyway. He and I know we all may end up sharing the same mate. If we do find her, I know I'll probably fall for her quickly, especially if she is cool and chilled like me. I also know Ares may reject her, which will weaken the link and possibly cause it to break, so I'm not going to get as close as I would like. I prefer to stay ahead of things.
"I think Ash hates me," Brianna pouts as we keep walking around the pack grounds.
"He doesn't hate you, babe; he just has some stuff going on in his head. He will come around," Ares tells her, and I mentally roll my eyes.
"What about you, Adonis? Do you still like me?" she asks, flashing her fake tits in my face. I hate that nickname, and she knows it. She likes to push my buttons so I can punish her. My eyes flash before I smell our beta coming close. I broke away from her instantly.
"I'm going to finish up with Kyle," I tell her, flashing a fake smile before walking off to Kyle.
"I see Pack Slut is trying yet again," Kyle says, seeing her put her arms around Ares and kiss him.
"Yeah, I don't know what she is going to do when we find our date," I tell Kyle. Ares pulls away from the kiss and glares at me before walking away. I knew he would hear me.
"Anyway, I've already called to confirm everyone who said they were coming; I just need you to sign off on this. I scribbled my signature on the forms. Tell Gamma Clair to double-check the decorations and to help my mother and grandmother with any decorations.
"Why is it that all women are forced to worry about decorations? I'm gamma of this pack. I certainly should have more respect than that," Clair says, coming up behind me. Claire is my mom's friend's daughter. She looks just like her mom, with her blonde hair pulled back neatly into a bun.
"Your right, males, like you should be helping with other stuff," Kyle jokes, which earns him a punch in the chest from her. Kyle looks at me playfully, shocked.
"Don't look at me like that; you set yourself up for that," Clair said, and I laughed at his fake tears. Growing up, other than my brothers, I was always closer to Clair and Kyle. They just have this vibe that I appreciate, and that's all we know.
"Just go help them, Clair," I told her, and I walked away.
We have so much to do and not that much time. I'm about to go pull Ares out of his lust-filled session. We're running this pack together, dammit.
