CHRISTIAN POV
“what about you” she gushed
“what you want to know about us” I asked
“h-how old are you ” she asked
“we are triplets and we all are 28 years old” I said and then her next question was way too obvious
“but you don’t look same , how ?” she asked bewildered .
“yes because we are the fraternal case that’s why” ron replied and she mouthed a big ‘ohhhhhhhhh’
“so tell me belle what were you doing here in italy” ron asked and for a second she reeked of a huge amount of fear and then her face morphed sadness and she zoned out.
I tried reading her mind but failed , I tried again but failed miserably ...I was shocked to how was that possible ..being a king me and my brothers had the gift to read anyone’s mind ...but I wasn’t able to read her mind ..i then mindlinked ron and vic to read her mind but they too failed
“tesoro” vic called her and broke her chain of thoughts
“huh” she blinked coming back to her reality .
“ummm actually I was on a solo trip and then some emergency came so I needed to head back home soon” she said after thinking a lot ...even though we couldn’t read her mind ..we knew that she was lying , it was clearly written on her face , there was something that she was hiding but we didn’t know what it was ....i was angry at her because she was lying but ron and vic somehow prevented me from leashing my anger out on her .
After a little chit chat session we observe that our little mate was trying her best to keep her droopy eyes from closing , I could tell the medicines were taking their troll on her , rubbing her eyes like a kitten she yawned and then by rote she leaned on me , unable to resist , I slowly buried my fingers in her deep black locks and caressed them , her scent making me crazy yet making my soul serene , her touch was making my heart beat so fast that I worried I would wake her up even though she was already in her deep slumber.
“calm down your heartbeats Chris or it will wake her up” ron smirked
“f**k off” I mouthed him and enjoyed the feeling of my mate being so close to meclose...it was divine ...I was lucky to have such a kind and pure soul as my mate ,as our mate.

“so did you find out why couldn’t we read her mind ” Christian asked aaron who just shook his head in no .
“no , I called the oldest of the werewolf and vampire but they said it was impossible that we couldn’t read her mind . he said she isn’t human then but I assured them . she smelled 100% human , there was no other soul present inside her” aaron explained.
“but still she is hiding something from us ” vicenzo remarked “she zoned out when we asked about her stay in italy” he added recalling her previous actions .
“don’t worry I know how to get the answers out of her pretty mouth” Christian quipped with a smirk
“don’t do anything stupid brother that would make her hate us” aaron warned him in a threatening voice
“I know or you guyzz will kill your own brother” Christian huffed at his brother’s warning .
WRITER’S POV
The next morning grace again woke up with the same nightmare that were nothing but flashback of the worst events of her life , she was covered in a cold sweat, shaking wildly she clutched the sheets to stable herself, her heart was pounding so much that she dreaded it would explode inside her chest, she looked around the room suspicion and paranoia clouding her mind , she was afraid that her nightmare may have followed her here, she gets up cautiously,still shivering , she rubs her head and eyes and tries to fully awaken herself. She looked towards the window through which the sun was shining brightly, washing away the vestiges of the horror, leaving her somewhat relieved to return to her mundane existence. The skin crawling nightmare was enough for her to leave this country as soon as possible . the country she once admired and fascinated about was nothing but the biggest mistake of her life , a mistake that cost the life of her parents
Regret filled her heart making it clench in pain as she realized that if she had never forced her dad and mum to take her here on vacation then they would have been alive , and she would have been with them .
“I am not gonna stay here anymore” a lone tear tumbled down her already drenched cheeks “I will do what my dad said ” she wiped off the tear with the back of her hand
“I need to go to trevor , dad told me he would tell me everything ” she thought to herself but then facepalmed when she discerned that the card was in her jeans pocket ..
“oh no the card was in my jeans and it’s not here , if I lost the card then how will i contact trevor ...he is the last hope ” she swung her feet on the marvelous floor but winched in pain , her ankle was still healing but it wasn’t paining as much it did yesterday
“Tesoro , may I come in ” her thoughts broke when a knock on the door hit her ears . it was Vicenzo who was asking for permission to enter .
“y-yes” she replied and the next second he was standing in front of her
“good you are awake , I have brought clothes for you so , go have shower and then I’ll take you downstairs for breakfast” he chirped with a charming smile showing off his cute dimples .
“umm no , actually my ankle is better I think you should go , when I’ll get ready I’ll come on my own ” she politely declined his offer but vicenzo’s next move made her tremble in fear . slamming her hard against the wall , with one hand he pinned her both hands in a tight grip above her head and snaked his other hand around her dainty waist tightly , pressing himself more into her ,their chest touched clashed against eachother ...pleasure erupted in both of them but fear was much more dominant in her case .
“I wasn’t asking you , I was telling you and I DON’T TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER” he said huskily , his voice was dangerously cold making her shudder in his hold .
‘vicenzo is not himself what happened to him suddenly’ she thought trying to free herself from his death grip but the man didn’t even budged .
“vic-vicenzo pl-please y-you are hu-hurting me” she struggled in his grip but he just keep staring into her fearful eyes , the way he was looking at her made her want to run for hills , her heart was throbbing uncontrollably .
“no Tesoro , say yes first” he smirked , his voice was demanding and dominating but the words didn’t dare to left her mouth, the fear made her throat dry ...the expression he held were enough kill her voice
“say” he roared that made a sob escape her mouth
“y-yes” she stuttered in fear followed by her cries filling the whole room
