The Challenge Two Alphas, One Girl



Katrina's POV

I had been discharged from the infirmary officially. I walked to the room I had been given. My heart almost stopped when I saw Fang sitting on my bed flanked by his twin brothers, Fallon and Fargo. My pulse started to quicken. I blushed deeply. I tried to take a few deep breaths.

"Close the door," instructed Fang. I did as he said.

"Let's talk," said Fang.

I grumbled inwardly but sat obediently, perched on the edge of an armchair facing the three brothers.

“Katrina,” said Fang. "I know you must be a bit...confused by your sudden interest in my brothers or perhaps their sudden interest in you."

Fang's eyes swept over me and then trailed over the room as he spoke. The twins' heated gazes never left me, making me flush more. I squirmed in my chair. I bit my l!p. I tried sitting all the way back so I could relax. I kicked my shoes off and put my bare feet on the chair, h.ugging my knees to my c.hest. Fallon was staring at my face and Fargo was staring at my feet so I hid them under me self-consciously. I realised they were waiting for me to give some kind of response.

"I...guess it is confusing," I admitted softly.

"Can you give us a minute?" Fang asked suddenly. The twins looked surprised but they left the room.

"Katrina," Fang said very softly so I had to lean forwards. "I know you think you were in love with me but I think you were...sensing how similar I was to the guys you were actually meant to be with. Maybe you could smell them?" Fang said, shrugging.

Fang did smell good, really good but the twins could arouse me by scent alone. However I was strongly terrified of them. They were two of them. What if they really want me back and were just playing games? I was a vampire. They probably didn't like that. I could barely handle seeing Fang coddle his pregnant wife Astrid. I felt so stupid for thinking him coming to save me like that meant his love was romantic.

"I do love you, Katrina," said Fang as if he had read my mind. I blushed.

"You're smart, resourceful, annoying," said Fang, listing my attributes. Annoying?

"You're beautiful, you always try your hardest, you never give up or give in," Fang said.

I smiled.

"You're strong considering you're in one piece emotionally after what your stepfather did to you," Fang said. I was upset that he sold me off to be married but he had never been the most traditionally loving father figure. Ezra and I were more an heir and an heiress to him than children but he had forewent even that since he had turned on both of us and Ezra was biologically his. I sighed, feeling sorry for Ezra. He had his Raelynn though so I knew he was thrilled and distracted by engagement stuff. She was everything to him. Raelynn! She was a she-wolf after all. I stared at Fang.

"I love you like a little sister and I hope that doesn't hurt to hear. I have a mate and wife whom I love romantically. We're having a baby. I don't want anything between us to be awkward. It really doesn't have to be. I am so happy for you, Katrina, especially if you choose to become part of our family. You would definitely have my blessing. And the twins would be over the moon," said Fang, grinning.

Part of their family? Huh. Did he mean because my stepbrother Ezra and his half-sister Raelynn were getting married.

"I really hope you can give them a chance," murmured Fang.

I raised my eyebrows. Fang came over and gently k!ssed my forehead. He nuzzled me which was weird. It was a wolf thing between relatives or mates. I had seen Raelynn nuzzle Ezra even back when we all thought she was human. It irked me that Ezekiel had known all along she was a she- wolf and had not bothered to say anything to help her along. More genuine people in my life would be nice. Fang headed to the door.

"I...wait! I love you, too. I'm not sure in what way. I won't get in the way of you and Astrid anymore! I promise...and I'm...embarrassed that I acted like that," I said, looking down.

Fang grasped my chin to make me look up again. "Keep that chin up!" He ordered. He left me with a slight smile on my face.

The twins returned and shut the door. They sat across from me. I felt a lot calmer now.

"Katrina," they said in unison then glanced at each other. I giggled. They grinned.

"You're our mate, Katrina," said Fallon.

"We know there's two of us but we're identical so in the wolf world identical siblings like twins and triplets may have just one mate." My heart was beating so loudly, I wondered if the twins could hear it. Oh, wait, they were werewolves they could always hear it.

"Don't be scared, ok," pleaded Fallon, his eyes widening.

"I'm not scared," I said simply. The twins smiled.

"I...I think you guys are my predestined but I didn't know it was possible to have more than one predestined. I'd never heard of it," I whispered. "I thought I was imagining things because you were younger versions of Fang!" I blurted out. Ugh! I had just admitted I wondered if my liking for them was because of the crush I'd had on their brother. How awkward.

"It's the other way around," said Fargo. "You liked Fang because he was similar to us and you hadn't met us yet so you got confused."

Oh.

"It's kinda like um...if Maze for instance saw Raelynn before Friday, he would think she was really beautiful..." said Fargo.

"No! NO! Not a good example! That's actually his sister so hopefully not. I doubt," said Fallon.

"Platonically beautiful," Fargo said.

"That makes no sense!" Fallon said.

They started to argue.

"Thaddeus is a better example!" Fallon said.

"Ok, whatever," grumbled Fargo.

“If Thaddeus met Raelynn before Friday, he might think she was pretty and he could get confused but when he actually met Friday, then he would be head over heels!" Instead Fallon.

“Thaddeus is one of those mate-stuck Alphas who went traveling to different packs hoping to find his Luna. He wouldn't be with someone he wasn't fated to unless he blatantly told them it wasn't serious," Fargo retorted.

They glared at each.

"It's true. Thaddeus is very pro-mates only!" Fargo began.

"Ugh! That's not the point. It's still a better example than yours!" Fallon snapped.

Fargo opened his mouth to argue.

"Ok!" I said, raising my palms to face them, signalling for them to stop. "I get it, I think," I said nodding.

"Who had the better example?" Demanded Fargo.

I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. I smiled slyly feeling really excited all of a sudden.

"I'll show you," I said. "Close your eyes." They obeyed, shutting their eyes.

I walked over and kneeled on the

bed. I cupped Fargo's face and pressed my lips gently to his. He responded enthusiastically, grabbing me and making me straddle his lap. I squealed a little. Werewolves moved so fast! I felt a huge hard bulge press against me between my thighs. Even through our layers of clothing I felt it distinctly. An involuntary moan escaped me. He deepened our k!ss and slipped his tongue in my mouth, caressing my tongue with his. I could feel myself getting we.t between my legs. My whole body flushed. I tried to make myself stop. We were strangers. I broke away from him.

"So I was right then?" Asked Fargo breathlessly. I smirked. That was what he was thinking about. I straddled Fallon's lap. He smirked but kept his eyes closed obediently. I could feel his arousal too as it hardened because I was near. I kissed him urgently and he pulled me to him, tangling his hands in my hair Fallon pushed me gently onto my back on the bed and settled himself between my legs, not breaking our k!ss. I groaned at all the

et

contact. I put my palms up and pushed gently against his c.hest to break the kiss. Fallon stared at me, his nose brushing against mine. I noticed Fargo had already ripped off his shirt to reveal ripping muscles and rock-hard abs. My mind felt

fuzzy. The twins were very dangerous. I quickly extricated myself from Fallon and tossed Fargo his shirt.

"Out!" I ordered them.

Their faces were comical.

"You're rejecting us as mates?" Asked Fargo, his eyes wide and fearful as he pulled on his shirt.

"NO!" I said making them jump. "I'm just making you leave my room before I get pregnant. This pack house is at capacity with pregnant people. Astrid and Elizabeth are enough. Maze will throw me out probably rather than plan another shower!" I joked. Maze was fuming these days over all the work involved in "big families" for a "sensitive and sophisticated only child" like him. I was pretty sure he enjoyed all the commotion and excitement with the packed pack house but refused to admit it. I needed the twins out before I made a big rushed mistake.

The reluctantly and very slowly walked to the door. They looked back at me with hurt puppy-dog eyes. I knew werewolf men were pretty dominant but I thought maybe the guys wouldn't mind if I initiated something.

"Before you go, I wanted to ask...would you go out with me? Like on a date tomorrow?" I asked, blushing and wanting to hide somewhere.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

They grinned.

"No!" Said Fargo.

"Fargo!" Said Fallon. "Yes!" Said Fallon.

"NO!" Said Fargo "Will you go out with us? We are asking you out?” Fargo folded his arms defiantly.

"We will go out with you," said Fallon smiling.

Fargo glared at me. Ugh! He would be the troublemaker. It was too early in the relationship to make a h.uge fuss so I said, "Yes I'd love to go out with

you Fargo and Fallon thank you for agreeing to go out with me."

They both seemed pleased by this very specific answer. Ugh, twins!

Thaddeus' POV

"If Fang doesn't walk me down the aisle," said Friday defiantly, "I'm not walking down it. I'm standing in the doorway in my dress. Everyone can just sit

there."

Maze snorted.

“Point taken, Luna," I said, splashing her with water.

"And?" She asked hopefully.

"What?" I said. Maze looked up.

"What will happen to Fang?" She asked, anxious and impatient now that it had been brought up.

I sighed. Maze sighed. We looked at each other, Maze and I, from enemies to friends to brothers. We had decided on a few things. We just hadn't told

anyone yet.

You tell her! Maze insisted over private mind-link.

Oh wow thanks Alpha Maze the Brave! I said.

You're welcome, he replied snidely.

Caturday walked in and meowed. He eyed us, judging us, also waiting to hear Fang's fate.

I cleared my throat.

"We decided that Fang should be..."

I was interrupted by Caturday coughing up a hairball. We all stopped and looked over to make sure he was ok. Maze picked him up and patted him. Caturday went back to looking at me and so did his Mommy.

"Hey!" Whined Friday, wanting attention from both of her alphas.

“It's Thaddeus' day, Baby, I'm tired, we will play a game after my nap," mumbled Maze.

Friday pouted. I scooped her up and smiled again, snuggling into me.

"Thank you Thaddeus, thank you Maze,” she whispered. Maze began to snore softly, actually dead asleep. I snorted.
