Chereads / His Three Mates / Chapter 9 - Chapter 9

Chapter 9 - Chapter 9

VIOLET'S POV

He lied when he said he would split the time equally. Out of all three of us I've been the one secluded. For the past week and a half I've been watching him take Charlotte and Luna out without even glancing at me. It's like he fully blames me for what went down to the point I wonder if I am the scapegoat. Did the girls plan to let me take the fall for our behavior? Did they lie and say it was my idea? Why am I the one being secluded and made to watch as the other girls light up at his attention while I'm left out from it all?

My wolf whimpers as we recall how radiant both girls have looked this past week and how evilly content Charlotte looked every time she glances in my direction. Sure we said our feud was behind us for the time being, but I don't think Charlotte has any real intent to keep her word on that. Not with the snarky smiles she's been throwing my way every time they walk out the house arms wrapped around each other's.

I wipe a stray tear from my eye as the feeling of rejection courses through my body. I told myself I would never let a dumb man make me cry, but looks like I couldn't keep that promise to myself. I'm not accustomed to the feeling of jealousy and self loathing. It's something that causes depression and anger to take ahold inside of me making me want to be over the top and emotional all at once which is something I am not.

Our bedroom door opening causes my head to snap up as Luna walks in concern etched on her soft features.

"Hey Vi, are you doing okay?" Luna asks her voice softer and lower then her usual upbeat tone.

"I'm fine, why?" I force a wide smile across my lips as I lock eyes with her hoping she won't see through my bullshit.

"Because I've noticed Talon has been avoiding you when you guys use to be so close. I keep asking him when it will be your turn, but he shrugs me off and changes the topic. I'm just worried what that could be doing to you and your wolf mentally."

I feel the tears well behind my eyes as I quickly blink them away. I know he's been avoiding me, but to have it confirmed to me that it's one hundred percent purposeful somehow causes it to hurt worse. Like any inkling of doubt that it's accidental dissipates the moment those words leave her mouth.

"I don't know why he's acting the way he is. I guess he just never really wanted me and this was his excuse to get rid of me in a sense. You and Charlotte were wrong about him liking me. That's all." I keep the pain I feel out of my voice acting like this is a casual normal conversation to be having with your mates other mate.

I watch as her brown eyes soften even more while gazing at me. I can feel the pity she has for me weighing me down instantly making it harder to breath. The feeling of rejection has never felt so strong before. The fact that a girl I barley know is trying to comfort me causes the loneliness to swallow me whole. Even she doesn't really care. She just pity's me probably thinking about what it would be like if she was in my shoes. She doesn't know me so why would she genuinely care? She's just thanking the Goddess it's me in this situation and not her.

"Violet I don't think we were wrong at all. I just think that he is putting unnecessary blame on you for some reason. I tried to tell him the idea began with me, but he told me he was putting the whole situation behind him and that he forgives me. Maybe you just need to talk to him and find out what the real issue is."

"If he can't be man enough to come to me and have a conversation then I don't have anything to talk about with him. Anyways I'm about to go for a run, my wolf has been begging me to come out." I say sliding myself off the bed while holding my head up high. In all actuality my wolf felt too ashamed to even want to be seen right now I just needed out the conversation and out this goddess forsaken house altogether.

"Can I come with you?" Luna asks worry still shining her eyes.

"My wolf would like some alone time, thank you though." I respond before slipping past her and out the room. As I walk to the front door where my Nike slides lay I pass Talon who is cuddled on the couch with Charlotte watching some movie. As I pass I notice his eyes fly over to me for a second before looking back to the screen not paying me or where I'm going any mind. Whatever his reason is for treating me this way doesn't matter. I cannot forgive being treated like shit nor will I put up with it for long. If by the end of next week he's still treating me like I'm nonexistent then I will reject him.

Even if I die from rejection I would rather that then suffer an eternity with a man who doesn't care for me. A man who can go from being sweet and kind to treating me like I'm a ghost. I don't want that for myself nor will I allow my wolf to be tortured in this manner. If he thinks I will lay down and allow myself to be walked on then he has another thing coming.

I open the door to the house and close it gently behind me. I may be mad, but I don't want anyone to know how much this is effecting me. I refuse for Charlotte to get any satisfaction from my pain and whatever game Talon is playing he will not win. He's known me most of my life so he should no better then to play the silent game with a stubborn person like me.

As I walk further and further from the house a slight weight is lifted from my chest. I haven't been here more then a two weeks and I'm already starting to loose my sanity. I wish I could just speak to the Goddess and ask her why the hell she would do this to us. Did we all wrong her in some way and this is our punishment? Why must we endure such torture?

It doesn't take long until I end up on the beach when my phone suddenly rings startling me. I fish my phone out of my short pockets answering it with slight hope that it's Talon calling to apologize for everything and asking me to come back home, but when I hear the voice on the other end my heart plunges realizing it's just my mom.

"Hi Sweetie, are you by chance with the others? There's something I need to talk to everyone about."

"No mom I'm on the beach I just needed to take a walk. Is everything okay?" My brows knit together curious about why my moms calling as she sounds slightly frantic.

"Well… it's okay as can be. There will be a very slight change of plans here. The second daughter of the retired Oak Pack's Alpha gave me a call worried about her nephew and his mate. She expressed that they were in danger and needed a place to hide that wasn't on any pack grounds for a while. Our Luna is good friends with her and we all talked about it and think it would be best to let her Nephew and his Mate hide out on our private Island for a while where they won't be found. We have a few extra houses on the Island that we originally weren't going to tell you about since they are scattered and more so emergency hideouts in place in case the pack ever got attacked by an unbeatable force. We had a whole just in case plan made before you were even born that is too detailed to talk about over the phone that we can discuss later. Just know that soon you will be joined by two others on the Island, but know they will have their own place so they won't bother you all inside the house. Please inform the others of what's going on when you get back from the beach."

"Ok that's fine it would be nice to have more people to interact with out here. Also did you just expect us to not find these other houses? What you thought for three months we would be cooped up in the house doing goddess knows what?"

"You are all newly mated wolves we honestly thought you guys would be jumping each other's bones by the third day there. Why do you want to interact with others? Is everything okay Vi? Are you getting along with everyone? I know Charlotte can be a lot at times, but she's also a super sweet girl who I know you could come to like over time."

"Yes mom I'm fine we are getting along. Why wouldn't I want to interact with others? It's not like I'm a lone wolf. I don't want to be confined to just my Mate and his Mates I want to have friends as well. Just like you and Dad have friends."

"Yes we do have friends, but we didn't interact with them until I got pregnant with you! We were too busy mating and bonding to do much else. I find it odd Talons wolf even let you go off alone."

"Talon knows not to keep me caged in and non of us are at that level yet. Chill mom. It's weird having this kind of talk with you."

"Sorry, but I do worry about you all. All I want for you is happiness. Is that too much for a mother to ask for?" A sigh escapes my lips as I roll my dark eyes. Sure I'm somewhat fibbing to my mom, but I'm a grown wolf and there's just something's moms don't need to know. If I told her what's actually going on in the house I fear she herself will fly out here and raise hell upon us all.

"No mom it's not, but remember I'm grown now and I'm going at the pace that makes me comfortable. I got to go now. Love you, bye." I say quickly clicking off the phone before she could drill me any further about what's been going on this last week and a half.

As I trail back home I wonder why the daughter of an Alpha's nephew is in trouble along with his mate. What could possibly be going on there that makes them have to run to safety? I've never meet anyone from the Oak pack before, but I do know they are part of the top Ten rankings being number three putting them right below the Jasper Pack.

When I walk in the door I notice Luna has joined Charlotte and Talon on the couch while munching on popcorn. I roll my eyes as I strut towards them walking in front of the television causing Charlotte to groan at me and quickly shout at me to move.

"No, turn off the TV we have something important to discuss real quick. After that I don't care what you do."

"How about you get the fuck out the way and leave us alone to finish our movie and talk to us after?" Charlotte clips black glaring at me with her cerulean eyes.

"How about you learn how to use the pause button on the remote and fucking listen for once? My mom called and told me something important you naggy bitch." I feel the anger and jealousy bubble up in my chest as I continue to watch Talon with his arm draped around both girls looking at me with careless eyes. My wolf is prowling in my head feeding my animal instincts to pounce on this bitch who dares to talk down to me and then to take what should of been mine.

"Oh no your mommy called so now we all just have to listen to what a depressive unhinged bitch has to say. Get a grip and some manners while you are at it. You don't have to interrupt us all because your mommy called. I bet you are just interrupting us since Talon has been ignoring you. You are looking for attention from any angle possible, huh?"

"Charlotte what the hell! That's fucked up don't talk to Violet like that! Just pause the movie it's not a huge deal we can listen real quick then finish the movie. What happened to us all being civil?" Chimes in Luna trying to defuse the situation as Talon seems to be ignoring it all.

"Luna I genuinely adore you, but Violet wanted to name call first so I'm just giving back what she threw at me. If she can't handle it then maybe she should learn to keep her mouth shut."

"Come on Char, you know Vi isn't having the best day. Let's just hear what she has to say."

"Nah let Charlotte say what she wants. It will show how ugly she really is. If she makes me too mad I'll just silence her for good."

"Is that a death threat?" Charlotte shrieks at me looking taken back.

"No, but if you took it that way then so be it."

"How else would I perceive it you crazy bitch?"

"Call me one more name and I'll fucking show you."

"Talon please lock your psychotic mate up in a padded room." Charlotte says turning her eyes to Talon causing a low growl to leave my mouth. That's it I'm putting her in her place. Without warning I lunge myself across the room quickly hooking my hands into her golden hair and throwing her on to the floor before jumping on top of her. A shocked shriek leaves her mouth before I punch her with my fist.

After landing a second punch she jabs me in the stomach with her knee before grabbing me by my hair and pulling my head down making it hard to see as she throws a punch at the side of my cheek. Before I can retaliate a hand is forcefully pulling me off of Charlotte successfully separating us. I realize I'm now wrapped in Talons arms as the sparks fly across my skin causing a wave of shock to roll through me forcefully calming me down. Talon takes me to the other side of the room before letting me go causing the sparks to stop and the light warmth that accompanied it vanishes.

"What the hell is wrong with you attacking Charlotte like that? Get a fucking grip!" Talon seethes at me his chest heaving up and down as his eyes glow and icy blue showing his wolf is at bay.

"Oh shut the fuck up Talon! You are all team Charlotte now huh? Well fuck you and her! You are both pieces of shit! All I was trying to tell you is that the Oak packs son will be coming with his mate to stay at one of the houses on the Island, but you were too busy watching a damn movie to even give me five seconds of your time! Go fuck yourself you pompous, arrogant, piece of shit!" With my last words I turn around stomping away into our room. This time I do slam the door shut allowing the bang to ring through the house before quickly locking it. I don't care if they know I'm pissed right now. I've been pushed to my limit and ruthless Violet is ready to take control.
