The Alpha Triplets And The Rogue
Chapter 94

Erica’s POV

Envy takes off running as fast as she can through the forest. She weaves in and out of trees, occasionally lifting her nose to the air looking for the scent of our mate. Every now and then we catch the faint scent of hot chocolate but we are running too fast to follow the trail properly.

The sound of heavy paws hitting the ground behind us, only serves to make us run faster. Envy doesn’t dare turn around to see who is chasing us. Taking a hard right, trying to lose whoever is chasing us, Envy slides on the leaves of the forest floor and falls on her side. She skids painfully across the ground and lets out a loud whimper.

Suddenly, someone pounces on top of us, pinning us to the ground. Envy keeps her eyes closed, waiting for the impending attack, when the smell of hot chocolate fills our senses.

Opening her eyes one at a time, Azul finally comes into focus, smiling goofily down at us with his tongue hanging out of the side of his mouth.

Envy retreats to the recesses of my mind, mumbling something about arrogant Alphas. As she disappears from my mind I can feel my body begin to shift under the weight of Azul’s massive form.

As soon as I am back in my human form, I expect to feel Azul’s massive paws on my shoulders. But I don’t. I feel a pair of warm hands rubbing my shoulders.

Opening my eyes, I look up and see Ace smiling at me. “Did I scare you?” He asks.

“A little,” I admit. “Envy is pretty grumpy about the whole situation.”

Ace scratches the back of his head awkwardly. “I wanted to see if you could use the same powers that you used last night to save yourself.”

Sitting on the forest floor, I try not to be too angry with Ace. I know that he was just being curious about my powers. “I don’t know how to use my powers. It just happened when I saw that you and your brothers were in danger. I didn’t want anything to happen to my mates.”

Sitting beside me on the ground, Ace wraps an arm around me. “So you can use it to save others but not yourself?”

“It would appear so,” I respond not really knowing if that is the truth or not.

“How can I ever thank you for saving my father’s life?” Ace nuzzles his nose into my neck and inhales deeply.

I giggle a little at his touch. “This is a good start.”

“Is that so,” Ace whispers next to my ear.

Ace runs his tongue over where his brothers have already marked me and my toes curl with excitement. Slowly he gets to his feet and holds out his hand for me to stand with him.

“I want to show you something,” he whispers.

Getting to my feet, the wind finally picks up and I realize that I am still naked from my shift. “Ace,” I pull back on his hand. “We are naked.”

“Where we are going, it won’t matter,” Ace says with a smirk on his face.

Slowly I allow Ace to lead me through the forest. I keep my eyes on the ground, making sure not to step on anything that could injure my feet.

Suddenly Ace comes to a stop and I run into the back of him. I raise my eyes and look around us. A small gasp leaves my lips. There is a beautiful lake in the middle of the forest. The water sparkles under the moonlight and it looks like diamonds are floating on top of the water.

“We all used to come swimming here in the summer,” Ace explains. “It is my brothers and my special spot. I thought it could be our special spot now too.”

I take a step away from Ace and dip my toe in the cool water. “It is beautiful here.” I say in awe.

“Not as beautiful as you,” Ace says, not taking his eyes off of me.

My face heats with embarrassment when I realize that he is staring at every inch of my naked body. I look down at myself and realize that I am covered in mud.

“How can I be beautiful if I am covered in mud?” I ask, placing my hands on my h**s.

“Then maybe we should wash some of that mud off of you,” Ace chuckles as he leads me into the water.

As I follow Ace into the cool water it sends a shiver down my spine. Seeing me shiver, Ace steps behind me and wraps his arms around me while he guides me slowly into the water. Soon the water is over my shoulders but I don’t mind the chill. All I can feel is the electric tingles of the mate bond growing stronger between Ace and I.

We stand in the center of the small lake and Ace runs his hands all over my body, rinsing the dirt and much from my skin. The longer that he touches me, the more turned on I become. My core begins to clinch tightly as I anticipate what could happen next.

Leaning my back against Ace’s chest I can feel his e******n pressing against me. “I want you to mark me,” I whisper.

Ace inhales deeply before he continues to rub his hands over my body. He doesn’t respond to my request. Gliding his hands down the front of my body his fingers find their way into my folds. Holding me steady with one arm, Ace gently strokes my slit.

“Are you sure you can handle another round tonight?” He asks as he slips a finger inside of me. “I know my brothers already had their way with you tonight.”

“I will always be able to handle the three of you in one night,” I pant out as Ace expertly runs his fingers along my opening.

He plunges another finger inside of me and I m**n loudly, the sound echoing loudly through the silent night.

“As long as you are sure,” Ace says as he plunges another finger in my core.
