Chapter 6 How Good You Are At Taking My Brotherš
- āThe Alphas must never find out that youāre wolfless, Lilith. Under no circumstances. Wolfless women arenāt allowed to participate in the ritual because they can never have a mate and the whole point of the ritual is to help the Alpha triplets find theirs. If they realize theyāve been deceived, they might end your life. So be careful.ā
- Her words echoed loudly in my head as I dropped to my knees.
- Two gold bars. That was what I was selling my body for.
- A single gold bar was enough to buy a small house in the main city of the Fangspire Pack, where the wealthy lived, where I once lived. With two gold bars, I could live without ever having to worry about food or stability again.
- I could get a place, open a small restaurant, and try to restart my life. But I couldnāt do that.
- Because if I got those gold bars, I would be able to pay my motherās hospital bills without worry, at least for a year. I might even be able to afford a skilled witch doctor who could cure her of the poison and save her life.
- And that⦠that was the reason I was doing this.
- That was why I had begged Thalia, the head attendant who had once been close to my father when he was alive, to secretly slip me into this ritual.
- Now, all I had to do was sleep with these three men.
- When they were done, they would mark me to see if I was their mate. If I was, the mark would remain but if I wasnāt, it would fade.
- But I was wolfless. A girl who couldnāt have a mate.
- So I was certain the mark would fade.
- I just hoped they wouldnāt realize the truth before theyā
- My thoughts cut off as a hand suddenly grabbed my chin and tilted my head upward.
- My eyes widened as I looked up, only to find an amused smirk tugging at Claude's lips as he stared down at me, towering above, his blonde locs slightly obscuring his eyes.
- āWhat are you thinking about, she-wolf? Are you scared?" he asked, leaning in slightly.
- My breath hitched as his thumb slowly grazed my bottom lip.
- āDo you want to back out? Want to run away?ā
- Ragged breathing escaped me as I stared at him. The way he looked at me⦠the way he spoke⦠for some reason, it made me feel like he was the predator and I was the prey.
- My body trembled with fear, but I fought to keep it from showing. Still, as he chuckled and slowly closed the distance between us until our lips were only inches apart, it was getting harder not to.
- I knew he could smell the fear on me and the glint in his eyes made it painfully clear that he loved it.
- āIf you're scared, you still have a chance to back away now before we begin anything, Lilith,ā came the deep voice from behind meāSilas.
- I could feel his piercing gaze on my back.
- āThis is your only chance to walk out that door if you donāt want to do this, because once we start, thereās no stopping. Your body will belong to all three of us, and weāll use it as we please⦠and how we please.ā
- His voice faded at the end, calm, almost emotionless despite the concern laced in his words.
- āAnd we are anything but gentle. So the choice is yours.ā
- āWhen have we ever given them a choice to make?" a cold voice echoed, and my eyes instinctively flicked to Lucien.
- He walked over to the bed and sat at the edge, his legs crossed, the slightly unbuttoned shirt revealing a hint of his bare chest as he took a casual sip of wine. His eyes, almost empty, flickered to me as he spoke.
- āThe moment they walk through that door, theyāre ours, whether they like it or not. We simply fuck them to see if any of them are our mate⦠so why does she get to have a choice today?ā
- Despite asking, he didnāt look even slightly curious.
- āI agree with Lucien,ā Claude hummed, gripping my chin and forcing my gaze back to him. āEven if she isnāt our mate, I want to have her. For some reason, she smells really good⦠and Dervic keeps aching to have a taste.ā
- āYour wolf aches to taste everyone, Claude,ā Silas said, sounding unimpressed.
- āWell, that is true,ā Claude chuckled.
- My head felt like it was spinning as I listened to these men speak about me like I was an object, like I wasnāt even human. But I wasnāt a person to them right now. I was just the girl they were going to pay to spend the night with.
- And honestly, I couldnāt even pretend to be surprised. These were the men the Moon Goddess herself had cursed for their carnal desires. To them, women were nothing but a means to an end.
- Still⦠I couldnāt let them think I didnāt want this. I couldnāt afford for them to send me away. I needed the money.
- So despite the fear rising in my chest, despite the fact that I was already breaking one of the rules: Do not try to strike up a conversation with them unless given permissionā
- I forced the words out, voice trembling.
- āI want this, Alphas.ā
- The moment the words left my lips, their gazes sharpened, locking onto me. Claude slowly released my chin, and I lowered my head before continuing.
- āIāI want this. Iām not scared. I want to participate in the ritual.ā
- A heavy silence settled over the room. I couldnāt see their expressions, but judging from the low, amused laugh that slipped from Claude, I could tell he was both entertained and excited. Sure enough, in the next second, I heard his voice, thick with anticipation.
- āYou heard her, brother. Can we start now? Because Iām dying to feel those lips wrapped tight around my cockābeen craving that mouth since the second she walked in.ā
- As soon as Silas grunted as a response, before I could react, Claude hand shot out and grabbed mine, catching me off guard.
- I stared in shock as my fingers met his sculpted chest, a surprised gasp escaping me as my heart rate quickened. He held my hand there, making me feel the rise and fall of his breathing.
- And to my surprise, I felt it slowly quicken. And for a brief moment, it felt like the whole world had blurred, and all I could hear was the steady thumping of his heartbeat.
- āDo you feel it, she-wolf?ā Claude asked, a grin stretching across his lips. āYouāre the first one whoās made me feel this excitedāfor some reason.ā He hummed, then slowly began trailing my hand downward, from his chest to his rock-hard abs.
- As my fingers brushed the lines, I felt my core tighten and a shiver crawled down my spine. I held his gaze, unable to look away, as he guided my hand past his v-lines, stopping at the hard bulge pressing against his trousers.
- With slow, deliberate movements, he made me stroke it.
- āYou make me really excited, she-wolf,ā he hissed the last words with a low groan. āSo be a good girl, donāt be scared and take it inside your mouth.ā
- At this point, as I stared at the man in front of me, I wasnāt sure what was happening to my body. But one thing I knew for certain, I felt hot, like my entire body was on fire. Most of all, my panties felt soaked, just from his words alone.
- What was happening to me?
- I just wanted this to be over and nothing had even begun yet, I was already soaked?
- āWhat are you waiting for, Lilith?ā
- I stiffened as the low, sultry voice sounded in my ear from behind, and before I could react, Silasās hand slid to my neck, wrapping gently around it. Not too tight, but firm enough to make me gasp as he murmured in my ear,
- āPull down his pants, open your mouth, and suck. Let me watch how good you are at taking my brother.ā
- My eyes widened at how direct his words were, and my gaze instinctively flick
- ered to Lucien. He sat silently, watching from the bed without a word. But then I remembered the attendantsā instructions:
- Be submissive. Please the Alphas.
- That was my role here and I had no choice but to obey.
