Chapter 39: Interum Vivere
Chasity’s POV
I woke up in the immaculately white room in my spotlessly white clothes. I felt like I was in a weird dream. Everything monochromatic. It was a little difficult to look at. Sharp. It hurt my eyes. The only relief was the colours of photographs of all the
supermodels in their vibrant makeup and clothing. I sighed.
I believed it was my third day of being kidnapped but i had become unsure. I felt that Dante or Maurice or “Boss” was putting something in my food. Something to make my senses and perception dull. There was no reason why I should not be able to connect with my three alpha mates if I was still on their territory.
Suddenly, I felt my neck throb, Owl i felt the marks. The three silvery marks were burning. I rushed to the bathroom to look in the mirror. The marks were angry and red. There was something sticky on them like a salve. I gasped. I grabbed a piece of tissue and wiped off the cream. Someone had put something on my marksl I washed my neck with cool water. That soothed the burning. I kept treating the area and the searing pain slowly subsided. The skin was still irritated but it was just a bit pink.
My golden skin was back to looking sallow after it had begun to healthy. It wasn‘t gleaming anymore like it did on my trip with the triplets. I was back to shitty eating habits and stress, that‘s why. And now, I couldn‘t afford to be unhealthy! I gingerly touched my lower belly. I wondered how far along I was.
Dante came into my room just then and quickly rushed into the bathroom, his eyes wild. He must‘ve thought for a moment that I’d escaped. I stared at him blankly. I was seething but I didn‘t want to start an argument.
“I‘m right here,” I said plainly.
“I can see that,” he snarled.
Prick.
“Did you put something on my marks?” I asked softly.
Dante fidgeted uncomfortably. It was a very quick almost imperceptible movement but I spotted it. He did put something on
them.
“Why would you do that?” I asked.
Dante just glared at me.
“You‘re a werewolf, you know just as well as anyone else those marks cannot be removed. They‘re permanent,” I said, trying to stop my brown eyes from turning black with rage. How dare he try to remove my mates‘ marks. That was beyond heinous. I‘d never even
heard of such a thing.
Dante shrugged. “It was magic. I thought it would work,” he said.
I must have lost my mind for a second. Temporary insanity. I lunged at him and tackled him to the ground, canines bared. I wanted to rip him to shreds.
