Chapter 175 - Bullied Mate Of The Alpha Triplets

Tristen's POV

My encounter with Priscilla was unexpected, and at that moment, I felt so many emotions. Anger was the strongest of them all, but for some reason, I felt relieved.

I thought I wouldn't ever get to see her. I thought she had been kidnapped or, worse, was dead. After all these years, she was alive and looked like she was doing well.

She looked and acted so different, but with one glance at her, I could tell it was Priscilla. We were never on good terms or really friends, but when I found out she was carrying my child. How I felt at that moment, I couldn't explain, I couldn't describe it.

All I knew was I wanted to protect her; I wanted her by my side, and at that moment, I thought of many possibilities. Many scenes flash in my head—including a family with her.

She ruined it all by running away; she ran away and left without a word or a single reason. I was worried sick, and I couldn't stop blaming myself. I felt I had been too harsh, and she thought I hated her and ran away. I still couldn't forgive her until I saw her after opening the door.

Her eyes widened in surprise as she stared at me. I felt a strange feeling, and my wolf let out a growl for some reason. She looked better than I'd imagined. She wasn't the little bratty teenager from years ago. The wisdom she had acquired over the years was evident in her expression and demeanor.

The way she walked, the way she talked. Had Priscilla always been this way?

How did she end up here?

I had so many questions for her, and she didn't look like she was willing to give me any answers. And when I asked her about my child, I could see her panicked. I could easily read through people, but with Priscilla, I couldn't tell.

She said she had lost him, yet something didn't sit right in me. Was she lying?

Why would she lie about losing our child?

Could she be hiding him or her from me?

I took a deep breath and went to my pool. I took off my shirt and dived in the cool water. What could be Priscilla's true intentions?

She looked nervous around me and wanted to leave as soon as possible. A part of me felt like she was lying; she was hiding something. I needed answered. I needed to know why she left the pack, how she ended up in this pack, and this hotel.

Did she lose the baby, or did she abort him after promising not to?

I needed to investigate. I left the pool and dialed a number.

"Tell your manager to see me immediately," I said before the person could breathe a word and hung up.

I sat down, and my eye caught something. It was a flyer for a festival happening later today in the hotel.

"Hmm," I hummed to myself. "Might as well have fun since I'm here on vacation."

Just then, the doorbell to my suite was rung, and I got up to get the door. I saw the tall bald man dressed in a tux standing outside my suite. He bowed immediately, and the door was opened.

"Alpha," He called respectfully. "Thank you for blessing our hotel with your presence; I heard you called for me."

"Hmm," I hummed, resting by the door.

"I have questions, and I need you to answer them," I said coldly, and he nodded.

"Of course, Alpha. Anything you want to know," he said, sounding slightly nervous.

"That girl that works here, Priscilla," I started going straight to the point.

"P.. Priscilla? I sent her here early to get your lunch order; she said you were quite tired and had nothing to order for lunch." He gulped and I raised my brow at him.

Priscilla said that?

I scoffed, and the manager started sweating. "S.. she must have offended you. I.. am so sorry, Alpha; accept my deepest apologies, and please pardon us. She is just a new employee who has barely worked for a year here. I will make sure to punish her and have her fired right away-"

"Stop!" I raised my hand, stopping him from blabbering even more. "She did nothing; there's no need to have her fired. I am just intrigued by her, and I have questions," I mumbled, and he let out a breath of relief.

"Y.. yes sir. I will tell you everything I know." He was such a wimp, shivering In front of me.

"Who is she? What pack is she from? How long has she been working here? Does she have any relatives here? What's your relationship with her? Tell me everything you know about her." I shot my questions at him. He looked surprised and nodded.

"I have no relationship with Priscilla other than being her boss, Alpha, and I know absolutely nothing about her. A friend of mine who owns a restaurant nearby recommended her as she also worked in her restaurant. She begged me to take her in, and I did." The manager explained, and I frowned. He knew nothing about her?

"Alright, you can leave." I waved him off and slammed the door. It seemed like I would have to conduct an extra search and investigation.

I decided to take a little nap, and when I woke up, it was evening time already. I threw on my clothes and decided to walk around. I took the private elevator down, and then I remembered about the festival that was being held in the hotel. I decided to head there, and every lady kept giving me seductive looks and winked at me, biting their lips. Some even walked up to me to flirt with me, but I had no interest in them.

After what happened years ago, I'd unknowingly been avoiding ladies. For some reason, none of them could attract me or even lure me to their bed.

The festival was quite pretty and was also very colorful. The hotel was quite massive and spacious, and the festival grounds were so vast.

I headed to the bar to get a coconut drink when I heard a voice that made me freeze. I turned to see two women standing not so far from me, holding drinks in their hands as they chatted casually. I recognized one of them.

"Priscilla," I mumbled as if she heard me; she turned her head from the blonde woman she was talking to me. Her smile froze and slowly fell, disappearing.

I pushed my lips to a thin line, and she stared at me, her look of surprise turning to an uncomfortable one. I watched as her smile slowly turned to a frown. The woman she was talking to noticed she no longer had Priscilla's attention, and her attention was elsewhere. She slowly turned and saw me standing a few feet away from them. Her brows were raised as she stared at me in surprise. I took my drink and walked towards them. I watched Priscilla frown, and the woman beside her couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear as she blushed.

"A.. alpha Tristen," She called shakily as I stood in front, her face bright red. "Omg, it really is you."

I ignored her and turned to Priscilla, who, unlike the blonde woman, didn't look happy to see me.

"Hello, Priscilla, it seems like we meet again." I gave her a small smirk, and she narrowed her eyes at me.

"What do you want, Tristen?"
