CHAPTER 76: 76; HATRED

Sue

I felt against the side of my throat again, praying that I was wrong, but I could feel certain marks on my throat that weren’t there before, and they still felt fresh cause touching them was sending slight sparks of pain and something else through my entire body. After I focused on my insides, I realized that I now felt three more people along with myself on the inside.

When I glanced between the three men, none of them were saying anything, and I felt a deep stab of betrayal shrug through my entire body, filling me with the urge to burst into tears right now.

"How could you?" I cried out, my hand still pressed against my throat.

"You really marked me?" I whispered again, cause I was unable to believe this and was desperately hoping for it to be a lie. But from the expressions on their faces, I was certain that deep down, I wasn’t wrong, and that they really marked me.

How could they do this?

"Listen, Sue, this happened because..." as he spoke, I let out a breath of disbelief as I regarded him through the gaze of hurt over my eyes.

"You asked them to do this, right? You suggested to them to bind me to them so I’d never be able to leave with my second triplets mates, right?" I screamed at him and he flinched, having the audacity to appear confused, but if I was strong enough to strangle him to death right now, I’d do just that without thinking twice.

I could vividly remember when he told me he and his brothers could do this to me, how they could mark me then I’d be bonded to them and be unable to leave with the triplets. So they really did that?

Disgust filled my entire insides as I regarded them right now.

"We marked you cause it was the only option to save you." Landon pointed out and I scoffed in disbelief while scowling at him.

"You seriously expect me to believe that??" I hurled at him.

"It’s the truth. You were on the verge of death, marking you was the only way." Angelo said this time, his voice quiet and a grim expression on. As I stared at him right now, all I still felt was disgust cause I still didn’t believe them.

I dragged a hand over my face, then I glanced around for a few moments, trying to remember how I got here.

Slowly, memories started to return back to me at a really strong wave. Me having dinner with my new mates, being dragged off to the new lunas, then ordering that I get flogged, till I ended up fainting.

I let out a scoff. Was that why I was here? Cause they got guilty after I fainted in the hands of their psycho lunas?

"I was flogged till I lost consciousness, all because I refused to kiss the legs of your new lunas’ feet." I bit out as I glanced between them.

They didn’t look surprised, just grim faced. Dan looked annoyed though.

"Yes, we figured that out, and that’s why we saved you and brought you here to prevent you from dying." Landon informed me and I let out a snort while shaking my head.

"Why did you do it? You felt guilty?" I demanded before rolling my eyes, still feeling a lot of pain flooding through my entire body. "You should have let me die instead!"

"We can’t do that." Landon gritted it this time and I let out another scoff.

"Why? It’s not like you all care about me. You all don’t. You hate me. You detest me and you love to rfmimd me of that. Which is why you all marking me hurts even more, cause it’s out of hate, it’s to punish me by making me unable to go with my new mates." I bit out, and as I kept speaking, I slowly grew teary eyed.

Angelo still had the same grim expression on as he spoke. "We aren’t lying, we only marked you to send your life, cause we didn’t want you to die, despite what you might think of us."

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, right. And why do you care so much about me not dying? It can’t be because you were genuinely worried about me, you all hate me, there’s no denying that." I hurled at him.

After a few seconds, it slowly clicked and I let out a bitter laugh. "Oh, wait, let’s say I was really dying, you saved me cause you still have a use for me, right? You’ve all said you have a use for me, right? That’s the only reason why you all cursed me with this wretched bond?" I let out another scoff just as two tears rolled down my eyes. "You should have really let me die. Being bonded to you three is worse than any other suffering that’s waiting for me in your hands."

When none of them said anything yet, I angrily wiped at my cheeks. Of course I was right. This wretched bond that they’ve forced on me, it’s because of their selfish wants and nothing more. If they had been honest about me being on the verge of death, it means they bit me because they needed me, else they’d have let me die and that was so hurting for me to still keep processing right now, so I shoved that to the back of my mind and blinked a few times so another stupid tears dosent fall.

I was feeling so much pain throughout my entire body, especially from my back. Those lunas bitches... I was gonna kill them with my bare hands once chance.

When I faced the Prince again, the anger that moved through my entire body was so intense as I spoke.

"So, are you gonna sever this bond right now or when? Being bonded to you three is making me feel sick." I gritted out. I know that I was crossing a line, and that I should be talking more respectfully since they’re now kings, but I was too angry and hurt to care.

"You just woke up. You should sleep for now, get more rest till you become stronger." Damon spoke this time and his voice grated on my nerves so much.

"No, I want the bond severed first." I insisted and Damon snickered.

"Well, that’s just too bad cause it’s not happening anytime soon. Now, get some sleep." He drawled and I scowled at him.

"Bastard." I gritted out at him but he only rolled his eyes.

I pushed the covers off my body and rolled out of the bed, intended on heading for the slave quarters right now, cause no way would I remain in here now that I’m awake. The thought of doing that was making me get consumed with disgust while my skin felt like it was crawling.

"Where are you going?" Landon asked, regarding me wearily.

"To the new home you all gave me." I snapped as I took a single step.

Then at once, I felt all the strength melt out of my limbs like breeze, and the next moment, I was falling, a startled sound leaving my mouth.

Angelo was by my side in the next second, catching me before I could meet with the ground, and his touch instantly had sparks zinging into the spots of my bare skin that he touched, which angered me and made me feel more sick. When he dropped me in the bed, I couldn’t get away from him fast enough.

"You can’t go anywhere yet, you’ll still too weak." Angelo sighed out, and when I stared at his face closely, I noticed he looked exhausted.

Not like I care anyway.

"You have to stay here till you’re strong enough, okay?" He continued and for a moment, I felt confused that they were all yet to start speaking to me harshly and that he just put this statement in like a suggestion and not an order.

"I can’t remain in here, being in here makes me sick. I’d like to return back to the slave quarters." I demanded and Damon snorted, and I threw him a withering look.

"Why can’t you stay here? Here is certainly more comfortable." Landon grumbled and I scoffed.

"Well, cause it belongs to you and your brothers. I don’t feel comfortable here, I feel very disgusted, so I’d like to..."

Damon cut me off. "Oh my gosh, you’re so annoying. It’s like after coming back to life whereby you almost died, you managed to become more annoying along the way. Just stay in this bed till further notice and stop whining." He snapped and I felt myself bristle as I kept staring at him.

I was about to say something in response to him when Angelo cut me off. "Damon is right, you should remain in here till you’re strong enough to live."

I opened my mouth to object but his eyes briefly narrowed as he added. "That’s an order."

Of course it’s a fucking order!

Fucking bastards.
