Fated To Three, Betrayed By All… Until She Rose.-Chapter 54: What happens?

Zevran.

"You guys can’t be serious right now, right?" Leilani hissed, her eyes widening in bewilderment as she glanced between my brothers and I.

And for the first time, I realized something: she was utterly done with us.

The look on her face wasn’t surprise, it was of horror. It was fear. Fear of being tied down to us. Fear of being with us.

That realization made my chest ache. It made my breathing go shallow and my body tremble with a mixture of fear and pain. And then panic began to creep in.

I stretched out my hands towards her when I noticed she was trembling uncontrollably but she stepped back, her eyes thinning in disgust. She snorted; "You’re all insane. You’re inhumane!"

"Leilani, sit the fuck down and stop acting like the world is revolving around you!" Caelum spat, and at that, she quickly turned to him.

"Oh, that’s where you’re wrong, dickhead!" She hissed, making me stunned. "The whole world doesn’t revolve around me, but my own world does. My life does! And all you’ve ever done is create chaos in it!"

That stung. That stung like a motherfucking bitch.

"We reject your rejection, Leilani," Kael seethed from beside me. "...and I’d advise you to look for better, more effective ways to cut us off if that’s really what you’re after."

Tears pooled in her eyes. One that she didn’t bother stopping as they trailed down her face. At this sight, even the usually brazen Caelum went silent. I felt frozen in place.

Kael however, was the most brave one. He tentatively walked over to her, but just as he was about to wipe the tears off her face, she slapped off his hand so aggressively that Kael stumbled, his eyes wide in shock.

"I’ll destroy you," she seethed, her voice cold. Raw. Flat. It sent shivers down my spine. It sent Caelum sitting his ass on his chair. My jaw dropped. "I’ll destroy you three for destroying my life... that I promise you." She spat, and with that, turned and stumbled out of the restaurant like the devil was hot on her tail.

For a moment, no one moved. No one tried to go after her. No one even spoke.

We had been so shaken by the entire event. Still experiencing aftershocks from the storm that had been Leilani’s threatening voice that we couldn’t even afford the luxury of breathing.

But for some reason, I didn’t regret it.

I didn’t regret holding onto her, even though I’d seemed desperate. I didn’t regret refusing to reject her.

Kael finally turned to me after a moment. Something in his eyes felt like he was troubled. He mumbled; "Her eyes glowed."

At that, Caelum finally raised his head, a flicker of unease settling on his features. He nodded briskly at Kael, his eyes never leaving mine as he added; "She had an aura."

And they were both right.

There was something definitely different about Leilani these days. Something strange in the way she had pushed me earlier this morning. Something different in the air surrounding her.

A shiver ran up my spine at the thought. I whispered; "I’m afraid you’re both right. I feel it too."

"Is it her wolf? Does she really have a wolf now?... Isn’t that, like, impossible?" Caelum asked, but because I had no real response, I remained silent, musing over it myself.

Silence descended upon us until Kael finally spoke again. "Maybe she’s an exemption."

"Huh?"

"Maybe she’s one of the few werewolves that manage to get their wolves later in life. How old is she? Isn’t she like twenty four?"

"She’s twenty three." I snapped irritatedly, fighting the urge to roll my eyes. "How can you not know her age?"

"Because she’s not so important?" Kael clapped back, and goddess, I almost ripped his lips off.

"Yeah, she can never be as important as Chalice." Caelum spat, and gods, I hated that I would be tied to these two dumbos for the rest of my life. That I was cursed to be born with them in the first place.

I downed my drink in one fluid motion and pointed to the two of them, one after the other; I asked; "And do you know Chalice’s age?"

"Of course, we do!" Kael and Caelum scoffed in unison. "She was twenty three in June."

"And they’re twins, you idiots!"

Embarrassment colored their faces a bright shade of red. Caelum shrugged. "She still isn’t important."

Now, that succeeded in riling me up. I scoffed. "Yeah, right, she isn’t! But you just refused to reject her."

"You also refused to!"

"Well, I can admit that. I’m not you! I won’t lie that she isn’t important to me!"

"And what does that mean?"

"That she is! She is important to me!" I seethed, glaring straight at him. "I don’t know about y’all but she’s my mate. And maybe she may have been bitchy to us in the past but I’ve learnt to move on."

That finally caught Kael’s attention. He quietly placed his wine glass on the table, clasped both of his hands together and turned to me;

"And how do you move on when someone from the said past reminds you that you’re with a murderer? Not a one time attempted murderer but twice? And that she succeeded in one?"

Caelum added; "What makes you think she didn’t even kill Jennifer and tried to pin it on us because we weren’t giving her the attention she craved?"

Kael continued; "What makes you think she’s a saint and not the bitch we all always thought she is?"

As the questions settled in the air, none of us spoke anymore. We seemed to ponder over it for a long time, and by the time we finally left the restaurant hours later, I wasn’t sure anymore.

I didn’t know what to believe anymore. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

And I sure as hell didn’t want to forgive Leilani anymore.

—

We arrived home to find our house almost empty. Almost all the staff were gone. Father and mother had gone on a trip and Chalice was in our dining room, a feast on the table, whilst she waited for us in nothing but a sheer bikini set that did nothing to hide her voluptuous figure.

As soon as she saw us approaching, she began to shed off each piece of whatever clothing was left, one after the other until she was stark naked in front of us, her round breasts calling us in like moths to a naked flame, and her pink swollen nipples driving me mad in ways I hated to admit.

She slowly sat on the table, ignoring the feast beside her and spread her legs wide when her eyes met our hungry ones. She smiled sultrily before dipping two fingers into herself right in front of us.

I gritted my teeth. My brothers growled.

She purred; "Will you have me first before dinner? Or dinner before me?"

My cock stirred. Even Caelum looked like he was already salivating.

Her legs spread further apart, her pink lower lips gleaming with her juices. And when she tipped her head backward, moaning into the air as she plunged her fingers... one then two then three deeper into her pussy, I almost lost it.

I gritted my teeth and stepped back. Back. Not front.

Not towards her but away from her.

Because strangely, she looked like a Temu version of Leilani. She looked like a slutty Leilani with blue contact lenses and an auburn wig.

Caelum however went to her, his hand circling around her breasts as he leaned close to whisper; "The food can wait. My brothers and I are starving."

And yes, that was true.

It was true that I was hungry. But not for her.

The smell of her arousal drifted into my nostrils and the sound of skin slapping against skin filled the air as she continued to pleasure herself relentlessly while Caelum kissed her fucking brains out.

And I cannot deny it, but the scene was hot.

The scene definitely made a tent form in my pants, and maybe, I could fuck her and imagine her to be Leilani playing some stupid weird character.

And that was what I did.
