Chapter 69: Troy P.O.V.

Chapter 69: Troy P.O.V.
Murdering wolves is deeply frowned upon and against the law if we aren’t in a war but I kind of have a deep desire to murder her old pack. If my stupid mad brother hadn’t already murdered them I would be in the first ready vehicle back to that pack and they would suffer things i haven’t even thought about yet. 

I need to figure out just how sure we are that they are dead but that is a thought for another day. I took in a deep breath, “baby, I could never hate you no matter what you did.” I whispered, breathing in her scent. Her hair smelled so freaking amazing even with the smell of her fear coating the room. 

“Are you sure?” She asked with so much uneasiness in her voice. It is killing me that I can’t erase the hurt and pain that she has gone through. What good am I as the heir to the werewolf royal throne if I can’t even make her feel how deeply obsessed I am with her?

“Baby, I am the most sure of this.” I pulled her closer to me. I didn’t want any small gap between our two bodies right now. 

“There’s more.” She stated and I felt my whole body go rigid and tense. What else could she want to tell me? 

There was a knock on the door. It wasn’t a calm knock either. The banging of the door told me one thing. We are under attack by every single pack in existence or her mates and my best friends are on the other side of the door and they can feel exactly what I am feeling right now. 

There is so much anxiety and fear coursing through her that I felt like I was shaky and about to pass out. I don’t know how someone as small as her could feel such overwhelming emotions and still lay there perfectly still. She looked at me startled at the banging on the door, “I’ll be back okay?” I asked her because if she told me it wasn’t okay then I would not be leaving this bed. 

“Do you have too?” She asked me with so much emotion. There is so many different emotions swirling through her that it is physically making me dizzy at this point. 

“Why don’t you come with me and we can see what they want?” I offered, maybe that would bring her some level of peace.  She huffed and nodded. I held her hand and we got to the door. I opened it with her pressed into my side and of course both of them were standing there completely frantic. They didn’t even give her a second to explain what was wrong. 

“What did you do to her!” my beta shouted. Accusing me of something with his eyes while he glared at me. I couldn’t believe the balls that he had to sit here and accuse me of hurting her in any possible way. 

Lilith again showed me just how much of a mate she is for me. She moved between the two of us with a hand on my chest and then on Sebastian while she looked between the three of us. She took a big shaky breath, “Don't you dare talk to him like that. If you want to know what is wrong you can ask me. But that means you have ASK me and not have such an attitude.” Shr growled, looking at Sebastian with as much as ire and attitude that she could have. 

He cowered for a minute. Something in his eyes changed and he looked sad,”Yes, love.” He sighed, and scratched the back of his head. I chuckled and then she looked at me.

“You don’t laugh at him. He was worried about me and if you were in his shoes. I’m pretty sure-no scratch that. I am almost one hundred percent sure that you would have busted this door down and pulled me into your arms.” She smirked, looking at me. 

It seems like my mate is growing more and more confident as she gains more time with her mates. I can’t wait to see how she develops this new snarky attitude with the rest of the kingdom. 

“Feeling confident are we?” I asked her. Her eyes brightened instantly something between surprise and cockiness while she gaped at my question before she shook the thoughts from her mind. 

She looked back at Sebastian and Reynolds, focusing on the faces they were both making, “Did you have something that you wanted to ask?” She said as sweetly as she could.  I don’t know how she does it. Just dealing with her emotions alone feels incredibly taxing and she has been dealing with the feelings and thoughts from three mates.

Sebastian paused for a minute and looked past her and into me and then back to her. His mouth never moved but the questions is his eyes swirled while he took a deep breath and exhaled, “No, my love. I’m okay I’m sorry for intruding on the situation between you and Alpha Troy.” He apologized sincerely and stepped away from her. 

“I do.” Reynolds spoke up. If I didn’t know any better. I would have thought that these were regular wolves, not the esteemed, proud and violent Royal Pack Beta and Gamma. In the small time that she has been the mate to the three of us she has made us stop and really think about everything we do in a way I would have never thought possible.

“Okay, Reynolds. What do you want to ask me?” She said with the sweetest tone I have ever heard. It is almost alluring. 

“Are you okay?” He asked, nervously.

“Yes, I promise that I am okay. “ She reassured him, grabbing his hand and giving it a squeeze. The moment that she grabbed his hand he took in a deep breath of air. I would  have thought that he was drowning and her touch brought him up to the surface.

“You didn’t feel okay.” Reynolds whispered, his jaw clenched tightly while he looked at anything but her. 

“Troy, can I have a minute alone with Reynolds in the hall?” Lilith asked, looking at me with those damn eyes. She knows I’ll do anything when she looks at me like that. She has to know.

“Yeah, love. I can give you a few minutes with him.” I said, kissing her forehead. She stepped into the hallway with him and I closed the door. It is killing me right now that she even expects me to sit in here while he gets to have her all to himself. 

‘Take care of her.’ I demanded. Reynolds might be her mate but he isn’t me, what did he know about taking care of her?
