The Alpha Triplets And The Rogue -
Chapter 211
Raven’s POV
A knock on my door wakes me from a restless sleep. My night was filled with dreams of Leo and Oliver. Most of the dreams were filled with Leo and Oliver fighting. But not the last one. The last dream was different. Both Leo and Oliver had their hands on me.
The dream felt real. I could feel the tingles of the mate bond, even through the dream. I woke up in a sweat with heat pooling between my legs.
A knock raps on the door again, and I try to smooth my nightgown and hair. “Who is it?” I yawn loudly.
No one answers, but the door inches its way open. Ashley’s blonde hair peeks around the door, and she has a frown on her face.
“Why are you still sleeping?” She grumbles. “The car leaves in an hour on your orders.”
I yawn again loudly and return her frown. “I don’t need an hour to get ready for a car ride.”
“You need to look your best when you arrive at the South Pack,” Ashley m***s.
“No one is going to look their best after a ten-hour car ride,” I retort quickly.
“That’s why you aren’t driving,” Ashley rolls her eyes at me. “We are taking a flight to the South Pack.”
“Why wasn’t I notified?” I say as I try to get out of bed as quickly as possible.
I get to my feet, and my knees buckle under my weight. Ashley rushes to my side and helps me back to my feet. I want to push her away, but I have done enough damage to our relationship over the past twenty-four hours.
“Thank you,” I say through gritted teeth as I gingerly return to my feet.
“You’re welcome,” Ashley says coldly, disappearing into my closet.
I sit back on the bed, and an Omega from the West Pack pushes in a wheelchair. The Omega nods to me with a look of pity in her eyes. I growl out another “Thank you” before the Omega enters the closet and begins packing my things.
Ashley emerges from the closet with a baby blue dress in her hands. “You are going to wear this,” she snaps at me.
She throws the dress on the bed beside me and turns to leave the room.
“Ashley,” I call after her, but she doesn’t wait to hear what I have to say. Ashley storms out of the bedroom and slams the door behind her.
Guilt rises in my chest. I know that she is still angry at me for using my Luna command on her. I wanted to apologize for losing my cool while I was in the hospital, but Ashley doesn’t seem to be ready to hear it yet.
I look at the blue dress that Ashley had picked out for me, and my eyes fill with tears. I miss my mother, and I miss Kieran.
“Oh my Goddess,” I scream. “Kieran!”
With all that had been going on, I had forgotten Elise’s threat. Supposedly, the recusants have Kieran, and the last time I tried to call him, he didn’t answer his phone.
Scrambling for my phone on the bedside table, I quickly dial Kieran’s number. I drum my fingers on my leg as the other end of the call continues to ring.
“For f**k’s sake,” Kieran’s grumpy voice rings out on the other end of the call. “Do you have any idea what time it is, Raven?”
I breathe out a sigh of relief. “It is early,” I answer him with tears streaming down my face. “I didn’t mean to wake you.”
“If you didn’t mean to wake me, then why are you calling me?” Kieran asks grumpily.
“I just needed to know that you are okay,” I tell him honestly.
“Why wouldn’t I be okay?” Kieran asks.
“I am worried about you,” I cry into the phone.
Kieran sighs loudly into the other end of the phone. “I don’t understand why you are so worried about me,” he grumbles. “You are the one getting pushed down the stairs by your personal aide.”
“You knew about that?” I feel wounded. Kieran has yet to call me once since I started my tour.
“Everyone knows about it,” Kieran says with a bit of humor in his voice.
“Are you laughing?” I scream into the phone.
“I am not laughing at you,” Kieran chuckles. “I am laughing with you.”
“I am not laughing, Kieran,” I snap at him.
“You are just so clumsy, Little Bird. Are you sure that you didn’t accidentally trip down the stairs?” Kieran asks, and my heart breaks a little.
I suddenly feel small. “I didn’t trip,” I mumble. “She admitted to pushing me.”
“I know, Little Bird. Dad filled me in,” he says cheerfully. “He really likes one of your mates. He says that the other one is a nerd.”
“He isn’t a nerd,” I gasp in defense of Oliver. “He is well educated.”
“Whatever,” Kieran g****s. “Are you done worrying about me yet? I want to go back to bed.”
“I guess,” I say. “I miss you.”
“Same, same,” Kieran yawns before he hangs up the call.
I stare at my phone in disbelief. Kieran has never just hung up on me before. We have always been extraordinarily close and told each other everything. But this conversation was different. It was like he didn’t even care that I was injured.
“Hey,” Leo’s voice breaks me out of my thoughts. I look up and see him leaning against my doorway. “Are you okay?”
I shake my head from side to side as tears roll down my cheeks.
“Do you want to talk about it?” Leo asks.
“I don’t,” I say quietly. “I just need to get ready.”
“Do you need help?” Leo smirks and wiggles his eyebrows up and down.
I can feel a blush spread across my cheeks. “I actually do need help,” I whisper. “But there is an Omega in my closet that can help me.”
“Absolutely not! No one sees my mate naked but me,” Leo says as he storms into my closet and pulls the Omega out by her hand. Dragging her to the door, Leo gently pushes her outside and slams the door in her face.
“Arms up,” Leo says as he walks toward the bed.
