Lexi’s p. o. v
I stood outside Ryan’s tent debating whether to call out his name or not.
“Ryan, your mate is outside your tent.” A man walking past me said on top of his voice.
“I know.” Came his response.
I brushed my hair backwards then hesitantly excused myself before walking in.
Evan was lying on the bed facing the entrance while Ryan was half dressed buckling his belt.
“I’m sorry I didn’t knock.” I said then faced the side.
“I mean I’m sorry I didn’t call out your name.” I corrected my sentence and swallowed hard.
He was shirtless and his body looked amazing.
I felt very shy to look at him. I also didn’t want to start thinking about how well built he was.
“You did excuse yourself.” Evan answered.
“So what brings you here?” Ryan asked, then moved to where I was, standing in front.
I looked him in the eyes then lowered my gaze to his hard chest.
“I.. um.. I….. Wanted to tell you something.” I stammered.
“Brother, stop teasing her.” Evan called out.
“Why shouldn’t I when it’s actually fun?. You should try it someday.” He answered with a chuckle then moved his hand to my waist.
I stood frozen, waiting for him to kiss me as he had done in these past few days.
“You like what you see don’t you?” He asked in a whisper after he had leaned in.
I swallowed hard again and nodded without a second thought.
He slid his hand to my ass and slapped there making me gasp loudly.
“Cute.” He whispered between laughter then turned and went to grab his shirt which was on the bed.
I was embarrassed over how I was acting in front of them and I was feeling wet between my thighs.
How could he do that to me in front of his brother?.
Were they always this open with each other?.
The past few days we decided to spend our time together.
After breakfast they went to train while I stayed in my room reading a book Toni had given me.
Then we sat down and ate lunch together. After that, we all took a bath in the evening and went out for a walk or a ride.
Our walk and ride was usually filled with laughter and great stories.
I got to learn what the twins liked and hated, and they got to do the same with me.
We also talked about our fears and strengths. It wasn’t much of a romantic ride but it was very heartwarming.
Whenever Ryan kissed me from the blue, Evan watched reluctantly. And whenever Evan wanted to touch my hand or hug me, he would first get my permission.
By now I was very comfortable around them and I got used to how they both acted in front of me.
I understood that Evan was more reserved and matured while Ryan acted how he wanted without much restrain.
Either way I loved them both and I usually found myself looking forward to spending more time with them.
“Lexi.” Ryan called snapping me out of my thoughts.
He was buttoning his shirt.
“Yes.” I answered.
“You said you wanted to tell us something.” He pointed out.
“Yes.” I answered sadly then bit my lower lip.
“What is it?” Evan asked.
“I came to say goodbye.” I whispered in a low tone hoping they wouldn’t get my words.
“Okay, are you going out with Whitney, Or is it Luna Amelia?” He asked.
I put my hands together then dropped them.
“No.” I answered.
“Then who are you going out with?” Ryan asked after he had sat down on the bed facing me.
“You see, Whitney, Leomord and I are going back to the late Alpha king’s territory.” I answered then lowered my gaze to the ground.
“Oh, okay. Then what time are you coming back?” Evan asked.
“We are not coming back.” I answered in a tiny voice as tears filled my eyes.
“What do you mean you are not coming back?” Ryan asked.
I blinked back the tears then looked at them.
“That place will be my new home, so I am not going to come back here.” I answered honestly.
A few minutes went by in silence and that made me even more sad.
My heart was aching badly and beating rapidly.
I was scared of them not seeing me off. I was also very scared of them telling me they no longer wanted me because I was leaving them behind.
Ryan stood up and kicked a chair that was next to him startling me.
“Fuck.” He spat in a low growl.
“Ryan!” Evan called in warning.
My body was tense and I found myself trying to keep my composure.
“Damn it Lexi?” He growled at me as his eyes switched.
I could see anger on his face and it reminded me of that day when we met. He even raised his hand on me.
“I’m sorry.” I said loudly then rushed out of the tent running towards the pack house in tears.
He said he would never hurt me and that I believed, but I was still scared of him.
I walked in and immediately went to my room where I lay down crying for a few minutes.
After feeling much better. I wiped off my tears and sat upright.
“Lexi.” Whitney called at the door.
I stood up and went to open it.
“How are you feeling,?” She asked softly. Immediately I opened the door.
“Sad.” I answered honestly.
“I know honey but we have to go back to the territory now, we can’t stay here any longer.” She said,
“I know.” I answered.
“Good, then get ready. We are living in a few minutes. Let me find you outside.” She said,
“Okay.” I answered and watched her leave.
I came out and walked out of the pack house, dragging my legs.
I didn’t know whether to go back and say my goodbye to them again or let them be.
Once I was outside, I found Toni, Nana, Neo, Ian and Amelia standing opposite our car.
“There they are.” Amelia said while looking past me.
I turned and saw Leomord and Whitney approaching hand in hand.
“Thank you all for having us here. Unfortunately we have some important task to carry out at the territory.” Whitney said happily then let go of Leomord’s hand and went to the car to open the front door.
She gave a slight bow then got into the driver’s seat.
“Alpha, Luna, thank you for your great hospitality.” Leomord said then gave a bow and stood upright.
“We will deliver good news soon enough.” He said, then went around the car and got into the front passenger’s seat.
I looked at everyone then the road that led to the tents.
I was expecting my mates to see me off but I guess they didn’t want to because they were angry with me.
“I’ll leave now.” I said in a cracked voice then went to get in the car.
“Lexi, remember, you are now a part of our family.” Alpha Ian said loudly.
“Thank you.” I answered then got in and closed the door.
When Whitney started the car, they all waved at us happily.
“See you soon.” She said on top of her voice then drove out of the pack.
All I could do was look behind with tears in my eyes as the pack house and people became smaller and smaller the further we got.
