The Alpha Triplets And The Rogue
Chapter 121

Erica POV

At some point during the ride, I must have fallen asleep. My head bounces lazily up and down as I am woken by the sound of voices.

“We should probably dose her one more time,” the gruff rogue sitting beside me says. “Just to make sure she doesn’t run.”

I hold my breath while I wait for Alice’s response. I know that too much wolfsbane would be detrimental to my pregnancy.

“We can’t risk it,” Alice says. “The baby is too important.”

I hear the car door open and feel the rogue get out of the seat beside me. I let out a sigh of relief as my eyes flutter open. Lifting my head lazily, blinking quickly, trying to get my vision to focus. As my vision clears from my sleep, I see that Alice is turned around in her seat staring at me.

“Alice,” my voice is dripping with malice as I say her name.

“We are at our destination,” she looks me up and down with hatred in her eyes. “If you run I will let them r**e you.”

I cannot help but gasp at the bluntness of her words. “You would put your own grandchild in harm’s way?”

“If you run, I have no problem with it,” she says coldly. “Now you are going to get out of this car and walk peacefully into that cabin. If you do anything to draw attention to yourself or try to run, you have been warned about the consequences of your actions.”

Alice’s eyes bore into my own and I can tell that she is not joking. She will let these men abuse me if I do not comply. Tearing my eyes away from Alice, I look out the window at my surroundings. We are in the middle of a forest. The trees are so tall that I cannot see over the top of them. I have no idea how long we have been on the run or where we are. If I run, I cannot get away without being able to shift into Envy.

With a heavy sigh, I know that I have no choice but to comply with Alice. “I will behave,” I say through gritted teeth.

“I thought that you would see things my way,” Alice sneers in my direction.

The door beside me opens, and another burly rogue stands outside waiting for me. He grabs a hold of my arm and manhandles me out of the back of the car. His claws dig into my skin and I can feel them cutting into my flesh.

I try to wrench my arm out of his grasp but he only tightens his hold on me. “I said that I would come quietly,” I growl.

Alice chuckles from the front of the vehicle. “This is just a precaution,” she says with a wave of her hand. “Rex here will show you to your room.”

The rogue, Rex, drags me by the arm to the small cabin that sits in a clearing amongst the trees. By the size of the cabin, it can only be one or two rooms at the most. Rex pulls me inside the cabin and I see that I am right. There is one large room with two smaller rooms off to the side. Without giving me a chance to look around, Rex pushes me into one of the smaller rooms.

Once I am inside, he slams the door shut behind me and I hear the lock click. Standing in the middle of the room, I look around. There are no windows, there is no way for me to escape. The only way in and out of the room is through that door and I don’t have to check it to know that it is locked tight.

There is a bed in the room and nothing else. Walking over to the bed, I sit down and finally let the tears that I have been holding back stream down my cheeks. As I sit in this room I realize that this will be my prison until I give birth to the baby or babies that are growing within me.

The lock on the door clicks and it opens just wide enough for Alice and Rex to come inside. Only this time they are not alone. Much to my surprise the doctor from the North Pack walks in with them.

Rex stands in front of the door, blocking my only means of escape. Alice steps forward with the doctor and gestures for him to approach me.

I shimmy away from the doctor and press my back against the wall of the room. The doctor looks back at Alice before he grabs me by the ankle and yanks me across the bed.

“I assume that you remember Doctor Wilson,” Alice says with a proud look on her face.

“Exactly how many people are under your employ?” I hiss back at her.

“More than you know,” Alice says with a smug look on her face. “Now be a good little girl and let the doctor check you over.”

I am torn. I don’t know what the right thing to do is. Of course, I will need to be under the care of a doctor until I give birth. But I don’t want anyone that is employed by Alice to come near me.

“Shall we get started?” Alice asks with an evil grin on her face. “Or do I need to leave you alone with Rex for a few minutes?”

“I will need more than a few minutes with a beauty like her,” Rex raises his eyebrows up and down as he talks.

Bile rises in my throat at the thought of a man other than my mates touching me. I push myself up to a sitting position and scoot across the bed closer to Doctor Wilson.

Doctor Wilson begins his exam and I comply with his every request, even when he requested that I lift my dress so he can examine my belly. He presses down hard on my stomach and I wince a little at the discomfort. It does not go unmissed by Alice.

“If you think carrying twins is uncomfortable you should try triplets,” she says with an air of arrogance.

“Twins?” I ask even though I already know the truth.

“Don’t be stupid,” Alice hisses at me. “We both know what the oracle told you.”
