SWNOVELS Chapter 108
108-They Think I Want Their Dicks.
Colt and I spoke for hours and didn't even realize how late it was until I looked around and saw the darkness. He kind of comforted me and walked me to the road and the rest of the way. I just couldn't help but wonder what to do next. He told me not to get on Gwen's wrong side for now until we are cer-tain she can be defeated.
He simply meant that she should not be triggered into transitions around the pack or populated areas.
I walked on the empty road without fear in my heart any- more. I had taken the pills, so nobody was coming for me. In fact, I couldn't tell why anyone would come for me anymore.
While I had all these thoughts in my head, I finally reached the pack and found some angry alpha kings waiting for me. The instant I walked into the kitchen to grab something to eat, as I was starving, they chased me down from the living room.
"Where were you?" Zane asked first, obviously mad be- cause I didn't attend his single call.
"I was not feeling well, so I walked out of the building." I said, not turning around to look at them.
"Why didn't you call me to come pick you up?" Akin ar- gued, wanting my attention.
"And if you were that sick, why didn't you come home? Where did you go spend the entire afternoon?" Maddox pitched in, crowding the kitchen and not even letting me drink some juice in peace.
"I was with my friend, okay?" I answered them in an ex- hausted tone and sat down with a frown on my forehead to finish the juice.
"Who is this friend of yours who is keeping you so busy that you don't even want to attend our calls?" Zane slammed his hand on the island to make me raise my face and give him. the satisfaction of eye contact. "A friend, duh!" I rolled my eyes at his stupid question and then continued with the bag of chips.
"Beatrice! Fine! We get it. We were harsh on you that night, but don't tell me you don't think you were wrong for hurting Gwen." Akin joined his brothers across the island to question me.
"I realized it. I shouldn't have hurt her. She has been noth- ing but very sweet and kind to me. And that helped me realize how I needed to change myself. I figured maybe I was so clingy because I didn't have any friends. So after getting a friend, I feel like I have finally gotten over you guys and the complete attention seeking phase," I said in the calmest and sweetest tone because I wanted Gwen to hear me and think I have backed down.
Instead, I got the attention of the brothers.
"You were not clingy," Helel scoffed, trying to let me know I didn't need to change.
"That's so kind of you, but I feel like I was. Or else why did you slap me?" I asked, and he buried his head in guilt.
"That was a reflex!" he murmured. His brothers shared a glance, and then Akin took the lead.
"We are all sorry for what happened," Akin stated in a clear tone.
"Rest assured! You were not clingy, and neither did we think you were bothering us," Maddox added as he realized I was not going to be chasing after them and patting their egos anymore.
"Thank you!" I said and proceeded to focus on my food. It was crazy how they were now telling me not to change when they used to beg me to.
"So are we good?" Maddox asked as he smiled at me, a kind of forceful smile.
"Yeah!" I nodded with a smile. I bet they didn't know this new me was here to stay.
"I can stay in the room with you tonight," Maddox sug- gested, as he really thought I would be back to wanting their dicks again.
"Or we can decide who will take care of her on what days," Zane added, and the others nodded. Akin didn't say much, and neither did I care anymore.
"Actually, I have managed to find a way to remain calm. even when I am alone. My friend told me a way, and it worked. So, I don't want you guys to give up on your sleep or rooms for me," I said, taking a pause from the food to alarm them that I don't want anyone barging into my room for the nights anymore.
The brothers only stared at me as if they were going to eat me alive. In order to escape their hungry eyes, I put the bag down and got on my feet.
"Dinner will be served in a few minutes," Akin voiced after me when I had walked out of the kitchen. I wasn't too hungry, but I had to join them for dinner only so that I could speak to Gwen.
I took a quick shower and joined them in the dining room. Gwen had worn a large blue sweater over booty shorts, while the brothers were in their casual shorts and shirts.
"Gwen!" As soon as I sat down, I got her attention. She turned to me with a weird look on her face, but then she forced a smile on her lips to avoid creating a scene in front of the brothers.
"I am so sorry for last night. I had missed the pills, so my head was all over the place. My eyes landed on your pendant, and I thought it was my mother's because she wears jewellery of all sorts. I am sorry!" As I lied with the most genuine smile on my lips, the brothers didn't look too impressed.
"It is okay," Gwen answered, but her smile was forged.
"Thank you!" I smiled back at her and started munching on the food when I heard Zane say something to Gwen.
"You look exquisite when you smile." As he said that, I raised my head and watched all of them staring at me for my reaction.
I knew it was my moment to burst their bubbles.
"True! she is incredible and very forgiving," I smiled and their smiles withered away in a second. Gwen didn't even know Zane used her to make me jealous just now. However, Akin looked at Zane and shook his head at him.
It was getting interesting now. My life was not going to revolve around these alpha kings. I had taken over the duty of saving the world by finding the white warrior.
