Chapter 6: 6) cursed mate!
Authors pov
The triplets always thought about how they would react when they will find their mate. They heard everyone talking that it's the most beautiful feeling in the world. A mate's smile is enough to change everything and they thought like that too.
They thought that when they will find their mate she will come running towards them, she will smile and happily accept them.
But their badluck was not ready to leave them. Total contrast to their imagination their mate was not a person but a statue. A sculpture of stones.
Lucifer looked at the statue with a frown. The workers has cleaned it but it still had some dirt on it. But now one could tell that it is a statue of a woman. Perfectly carved with every inch in it's place. Like it is a real human.
From clothing they understood that it is from the ancient age.
"It's impossible, she can't be our mate. It's a stone Nicolai. It's a fucking statue for God's sake."
Vincent yelled.
"Don't you feel it brother. The scent, the spark, the feeling. She is our mate. She is not a statue..."
Nicolai argued.
"It's impossible."
Vincent shook his head.
Lucifer slowly walked towards it and touched it. He felt the same emotion like his brothers and the scent got stronger when he got closer. Vincent and Nicolai was looking at him waiting for him to give his opinion.
Lucifer slowly trailed his hand upwards towards the heart of the statue and when he did his own heart skipped a beat.
"Her heart is beating..."
He mumbled in disbelief.
"What?..."
Vincent frowned and placed his hand on her heart. He felt the heartbeats, almost faint on the verge of dying but it was there. Her heart was beating. "Holy shit..."
"She is alive but she is a statue, how can a statue be alive..."
Vincent looked at his brothers flabbergasted.
"Maybe someone turned her into statue, it looks like a curse..."
Lucifer stated still not taking his eyes off the statue. Even if it was a piece of stone one could see through her, those stony eyes were filled with sadness.
The trio's hearts clenched in pain looking at their mate's condition but their fist tightened in anger thinking about the person who did this to their mate. Who dared to turn their mate into stone. "It's ok princess, we are here now. You will be fine..."
Vincent said looking at her.
"But how?..."
Nicolai questioned.
"We have to take her home. After that we will decide what to do..."
Vincent answered.
"You don't have to worry my king I have already called the men and machinaries to take the statue home. The manager told me that they tried to move the statue but it's impossible..." Dimitri informed and the trio nodded in agreement.
In no time the castle was full of men and bulky machinaries to move the statue from it's place. The triplets were standing away from the statue to give their men space to do their work.
"I swear when I find that person I am gonna give him/her their worst death possible..."
Nicolai gritted and his brothers growled in approvement.
Hybrids asked Dimitri to inform their trusted men. Werewolf and vampires to move the statue. If humans can't move it then supernaturals might do it.
They decided to dig around the statue so they can lift it but they failed miserably.
The trio were watching everything and were getting impatient second by second.
"King nothing is working, it looks like the statue itself doesn't want to move..."
Dimitri said.
The trio saw everyone struggling to get the statue out of there. They understood that it won't be easy to move her, when they decided to take statue with them they thought it will be easy but after watching all the scenario it was not simple at all, maybe it was another curse?
Finally they decided to use their hybrid powers. The three of them took off their coats and rolled there sleeves up. If machines and highly skilled manpower, supernaturals are not working then they had to do it. They decided to get their mate out of that place by themselves.
"Get everyone out of here and tell Ace to compel every human to forget. I don't want anyone to know about it. Understood?... And tell everyone to keep their mouths shut."
Vincent ordered and Dimitri quickly nodded in understanding. Ace was there third in command loyal and honest like Dimitri.
The trio still has many things to do and they don't want anyone to interfere in it. Specially their 'beautiful fiance' and 'lovely grandmother'.
All three of them surrounded the statue, Nicolai was standing behind it. He pushed the statue with all his strength, he thought it will be very difficult to do it after watching all the struggles by the men but to their surprise the statue moved forward and by the amount of strength he used it was falling down. Lucifer and Vincent quickly catched it before it fell on the ground.
Their eyebrows scrunched in confusion when they realised that the statue is lighter than feather.
Lucifer lifted it up easily with one hand and placed it in front of them away from the place where it was previously placed.
"Why was it so difficult for them to move it when it's lighter than a feather..."
Nicolai questioned.
Dimitri with the help of Ace compelled all the people who were present their and send them home. Every supernatural present there were loyal to the brothers and assured that they won't talk about this to anyone. He came back and saw that the brothers had already removed the statue while the brothers stood there puzzled on what's happening.
They asked Dimitri to push the statue forward to just check if it's really difficult to do it or the people who tried to do it were at fault.
Dimitri tried to push the statue but failed just like others and the trio's eyebrows raised in amusement. Dimitri took of his coat and with all his power tried to lift it up but it didn't move. Dimitri was their beta and one of the strongest wolf, they had seen Dimitri lifting pounds of weight like it's nothing for him but he was failing to lift their mate's statue.
"Sorry king, it's impossible I can't..."
He said between his pants while wiping his sweaty forehead.
Vincent came forward and gave a light push to the statue and it moved.
"Fuck..."
Dimitri cursed in shock when he did it so effortlessly while he almost shit in his pants doing that.
"No one can translocate it but we can... Any logic why?..."
Nicolai asked.
"Simple... Because we are her mates..."
Vincent shrugged.
"Maybe it's not about the weight of the statue..."
Lucifer stated.
"Then what is it?..."
Vincent questioned.
"That's what we need to find out..."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
