Filed to story: Triplet Alphas’ Secret Love
The below-deck indoor pool was on the opposite end of the large yacht from the covered on-deck bar and kitchen area. I was panting, relieved to not be in the water anymore and too tired to protest being held anymore even though I wanted to be alone right now. My wolf was whimpering at how sad Calix looked as he trudged out of the pool.
“I was trying to grab her. She didn’t want to be held by me,” said Calix softly, practically wincing at the thought. He rubbed the back of his neck. His dark wavy hair was drenched and sticking to his forehead. He looked really cute but I was so mad at him. Why did he not help me back out of the water as soon as I asked? He was holding me and keeping me in the water to talk. I was livid.
“Felix, put me down,” I said, close to tears.
They could hear it in my voice from the way they acted. Felix quickly but reluctantly placed me on my feet. Alex came dashing in a second later.
“Chasity!!!” Alex said, rushing over to me. “Calix and Felix both mind-linked me! I didn’t hear you, honey! I was near the front of the ship where the wind is powerful. What happened?”
“It doesn’t matter,” I said, sniffling. I held back my tears as best as I could but I was shaking. Alex reached for me to embrace me.
“No! Please! Don’t!” I pleaded. I did not want to be touched right now.
“Alex, please, may I have a separate room from the three of you for the rest of the trip?”
“Baby,” said Felix softly, his voice sounding heartbroken. My wolf was upset. She wanted me to forget about the past and just be with the triplets. She couldn’t stand the idea of sleeping separately from them.
Alex took a deep, slow breath. “Chasity,” he breathed, “you can have whatever you like, whatever makes you feel comfortable, but please, I’m begging you, let’s talk about this first!”
I got even more upset. A little anger intermingled with my sadness.
“You knew all along!” I said to Alex, my voice shaking. “You knew my father was your mother’s stepbrother! That means she probably even knows where my parents are!”
“Wait! What?!” Growled Felix, turning to Alex angrily.
“I shouldn’t have kept that from you! I’m sorry! I meant to tell you when the time was right! I’ve only known since we became Alphas and realized you were our mate, Princess. I wanted you to enjoy life a little bit! Not worry for once! That’s all!” Insisted Alex.
I was crying quietly now. Felix was moving towards me really slowly. He hesitantly drew me to him. My wolf purred at the warmth of his body. Calix came up behind me suddenly and hugged me tightly.
“I’m so so so sorry! I shouldn’t have kept that from you but I also shouldn’t have blurted it out like that! I love you, Chasity! Do you remember New Year’s a few years ago when I kissed you. I’d wanted to do that since I saw you on the doorstep of our house!” Murmured Calix.
Calix was hugging me from behind and I could feel so much of his skin against mine because we were both in our bathing suits. Felix was in front of me holding me to him also. They sandwiched me between them, overwhelming me with their body heat Alex was actually crying really quietly. He played with my damp curls and put his lips against my forehead breathing on my face. I was crying too. Alex licked my tears off of my cheeks, grooming me. I was so furious and upset with them but the skin to skin contact with my mates was making me wet between my legs. I was shivering but certainly not from the cold. Not with all their body heat enveloping me. I knew if they tried to convince me to go back to the bedroom and talk I would end sleeping with all of them. My body ached for that. I halfheartedly pushed at Felix’s bare chest and he pushed back forcefully making me gasp. He moved my hands away and kissed me passionately, lifting me off my feet. My bare legs instinctively wrapped around his waist and he held me up with his hands under my thighs.
I returned the kiss until I came to my senses. I pushed gently against Felix’s chest and broke the kiss. I extricated myself from the triplets and stood apart from them. I put my hands up, palms facing forwards. I sighed at their heartbroken expressions.
“I won’t change rooms if we talk about this. And if you promise no more secrets?!” I said, looking each of them in the eyes.
Felix folded his arms, narrowing his eyes.
“I promise but I never kept any secrets to begin with!” He said, annoyed, glaring at his brothers and then turning back to me. “I don’t want to be treated as if we’re one person. We’re three individual people. And I didn’t know about this! So why should I be punished by you too? Is that fair?”
He had a point. I felt a pang of guilt. He was right. They were different.
“When you were mad at Alex and I, you were nice to Calix still at Christmas! So why now that you’re mad at Alex and Calix, you don’t want me in your bed?” Continued Felix.
Ugh! He was right.
“Sorry, Felix,” I mumbled. “You didn’t know either.”
I walked over and hugged him. He embraced me warmly and tried to pick me up again but I would not let him though I giggled this time and his eyes darkened.
“We’re so sorry, Chasity!” Said Calix. “I promise! No more secrets!”
“I did what I thought was best!” Said Alex. “I’m sorry too. No more secrets. I promise.”
I gave Alex and Calix a kiss on the cheek each.
“I didn’t get a kiss on the cheek!” Complained Felix.
“You got a real kiss just a second ago!” Whined Calix.
Alex rolled his eyes at his younger brothers. He held out his hand to me. I took it.
“I’ll tell you whatever you want to know, Chasity, my Luna,” Alex murmured in my ear, his lips brushing against my skin. “Let’s talk!”
The triplets and I went back to our room. We all sat on the bed. Alex looked determined. Calix had puppy-dog eyes. Felix looked grumpy, clearly annoyed that he had been dragged into this.
“I’m angry too, you know,” said Felix, to the room in general. He turned to his brothers. “Since when do we keep secrets from each other.”
Alex and Calix stared at him and then at each other.
“I’m sorry, Felix,” said Alex, in a diplomatic fashion.
“Sorry, Felix,” mumbled Calix.
Felix was still seething.
“We thought you’d blab to Chasity!” Calix said.
“Yeah, except you blabbed to Chasity,” Alex said.
“I deserve to know,” I said softly.
“Of course, you do,” Alex said just as softly. He pulled me onto his lap. I let him draw me to him this time. “I wasn’t lying when I said I’ve always thought you were beautiful. I wanted a chance with you. I didn’t want to complicate an already horrible situation. That was selfish of me and I’m sorry. Felix, I almost forgot I was keeping it from you and Chasity. I kinda pushed it aside. I just wanted to be happy.”
My wolf was completely satisfied with that apology, but she would be satisfied with any apology. She was team triplets all the way.
“It’s ok, bro,” grumbled Felix. He smiled half-heartedly.
“Chasity,” whispered Calix, pouting, with his big blue eyes on me, “do you hated me?”
“No! Calix, I love you. And I love Alex. And Felix didn’t do anything this time but I love Felix. I love all of you,” I said, looking at each of their faces.
They all lit up.
“That’s why it hurts so much,” I said, closing my eyes for a bit.
I could feel their smiles falter.
I looked at them. “I want to know where my parents are,” I said resolutely.
“I don’t know,” said Alex, looking me straight in the eyes. I could tell he was being honest.
“We really don’t,” added Calix.
Felix shrugged.
“Do your parents know?” I asked.
“They might,” Alex said. Calix nodded.
“So your Mom really cared about my Dad even thought he was just her stepbrother?” I asked, raising my eyebrows incredulously.
“Yeah, she was devastated when he drove away and left you,” said Calix. “She had thought he was coming back into her life after being estranged because of her dislike for your Mom only for him to leave again, skip town and leave you behind on her porch.”
I winced. I sighed.
