Chapter 12
Saturday 15th January
Stars POV
I slowly wake up feeling so warm and comfy. The sound of soft breathing, mixed with gentle snores, fills my ears. Opening my eyes, I find all three triplets asleep. I am leaning on Ashton, his head leaning on mine, Ace has his head on my chest, my legs over his, and Alexei, mmmm, Alexei has his head in my lap, his face in my tummy.
Thank you, moon goddess, for giving me these perfect, yet sometimes annoying, men. My mates….. MY MATES!, and that k**s, or is it k****s, it feels like both, individual k****s but all part of the same first k**s, does that make sense? If not then, I have a head injury, so suck it up buttercup.
The door opens and Luna’s head pops through the door, she smiles when she sees I am awake and then her face melts, “aww you look so cute together, you would sleep like this when you were little,” she whispers, “happy birthday Luna, we are so happy to welcome you into our family darling”, she k****s my forehead, Alpha comes over and leans in to k**s me as well, but stops when a very groggy, “take your lips away from my girl old man”,
Alexei turns on his back, smirking at his dad. Alpha grabs my face, kissing me all over my face. Then pins his middle son lifted his shirt and blew the biggest raspberry I have ever heard on Alexei’s stomach, causing a peel of laughter, ok ticklish tummy, good to know.
Ace laughs and turns to me, “happy birthday Tink,” he gives me a peck on the lips. Ashton turns my head to k**s me. “good morning Starlight, happy birthday,”
I feel light k****s on my stomach and look down at a grinning Alexei, he crooks his finger at me, lightly pulling my hair so I bend forward so he can capture my lips, my hair falls down around us like a curtain, I feel him smirk against my lips and his tongue licks at my lips demanding entrance, I open my mouth and suck on his tongue, “mmmm, morning baby, did you sleep well?” I nod as I sit back.
The boys get up and pushed the bed out of the way, and grabs a chai for Luna, she ignores it and climbs on my bed, pulling me in for a hug, “mum stop steeling my girl” Ashton tries to sit on the other side of me, but Luna pushed him off, “the moon goddess gave her to me, as she knew I needed a daughter, you three were a means to an end.” I giggle at the identical frown on their faces.
Ace. comes over and picks me up. I wrap my arms around his neck and he nuzzles my cheek. He takes me to the bathroom and sits me on the counter. After turning on the shower, he grabs a duffel bag and starts pulling out wash things, and a black and silver track suit and underwear. Cupping my face, he k****s me gently, “have a shower, and get dressed. We are having breakfast with everyone in the hospital restaurant.”
He gazes into my eyes, and k****s me again, “I am so happy you are mine Tink,” then he is gone and the door is closed. I strip off my clothes and get my first look at myself in the mirror.
My face is a patchwork quilt of purple and green, and don’t even get me started on the bags under my eyes, my cheeks look hollow. Looking down my collar bones and ribs are sticking out, and I have a new scar from surgery on my ribs.
Turning around to see my back, I am covered with old scars from past beatings, how can the boys be attracted to this? I wonder if they have make up in that duffel bag. I wrap a towel around me and crack the door, six eyes turn to look at me, they look down at the towel and their eyes fill with l**t, ok so I am not that unattractive, “do you have makeup in that bag?”
Ash lets out a g***n, “f**k, I knew I would forget something, I am sorry babe Maxine Told me to bring the makeup bag. I can go get it.” I run to him “no Ash it’s ok, I just… umm, I look awful.”
The three look at each other and then Alexei pushes me into the bathroom, and puts me back on the counter, he cups my cheeks, “ok baby, what’s going on? Tell me what’s happening in that brilliant head.”
I sigh, and shrug my shoulders, “I look like s**t, not just the bruises, I have scars over half of my body, it’s ugly, and you guys are f*****g gods.” I cross my arms and look at my feel.
suddenly my knees are pushed apart, and my legs are wrapped around Lexi, he cups my chin so I am looking into his eyes, “Star, you are the sexiest, smartest, funniest person I have ever met, I have wanted you to be mine since we where kids, you remember when I kissed you? I told mum that you were going to be my mate because I loved you,” he k****s me softly, “and I do baby, I love you and I want you so f*****g much. If I need to k**s every scar on your body everyday for the rest of my life then I will. Now go shower , before I f**k you on this counter.”
with a quick k**s he leaves me to shower.
Once I had taken a shower, I put on the underwear Ace gave me; I have never owned something this nice, of sexy, the bra is balcony style, with deep green silk, and lace, the matching panties are mostly lace shorts, leaving the bottom of my a*s cheeks on show. I quickly pull on the tracksuit and open the door.
