Fated To Three, And I Broke Them All

Verity:

"Jaguar," I gasped, almost out of breath as I tried to get his attention.

"What?" he asked, pulling away as I quickly covered myself.

I quickly grabbed the sheet and pulled it over my chest, moving completely away from him as I sat on the bed.

I watched him and handed him the phone.

"It says your brother had a heart attack," I whispered, barely able to contain myself.

I didn’t know what had happened, but tears suddenly filled my eyes.

I just didn’t understand.

I mean, I’d always thought I wouldn’t care if he died, but why were tears suddenly filling my eyes?

Why was my heart pounding so hard?

Jaguar reacted the same way.

He froze, but he had far more control over himself than I did.

I’d already seen the notification when it appeared on the screen, so he opened the message to confirm what it said.

However, that was all it contained.

There wasn’t any other information.

He jumped out of bed and grabbed his trousers.

"How can that—," While he was putting on his trousers, I spoke, hugging the sheet tightly around my body, my eyes fixed on the floor.

I tried to convince myself I was only upset because if anything happened to the Alpha King, how would I ever get my revenge on him?

It would be an easy way out for him.

"He’s the Alpha King. How can he have a heart attack?" I muttered to myself.

I guess that caught Jaguar’s attention because he turned around while buttoning his shirt.

Then he came back to the bed.

"Are you okay?" he asked, climbing onto the bed on his knees and wrapping his arms around me.

"How can—how can he have a heart attack?" I couldn’t even speak properly.

My voice caught in my throat.

"Are you okay, Verity?" Jaguar asked, gently shaking me.

I had no clue why I was reacting this way.

It didn’t make sense, but I couldn’t stop.

My eyes kept filling with tears.

"Hey, hey," Jaguar murmured as he shifted onto his knees in front of me, cupping my face in his hands.

"He’s a powerful Alpha King. Like you said, there must’ve been a misunderstanding. Don’t worry, okay?" he reassured me, gently brushing his thumbs across my cheeks.

"Can— I come?" I asked.

The request slipped out before I could stop it.

Jaguar looked at me for a moment, then slowly straightened up.

"Of course. I’m so sorry. I don’t know what I was thinking. If I come with you, they’ll think we were together," I said, immediately pulling myself together.

"If you want to, it’s okay," Jaguar replied suddenly, cupping my face again.

I hadn’t expected him to agree.

I studied his face, weighing my options.

Why the fuck was I so worried?

It wasn’t like I cared about that motherfucker.

"Oh, no. It’s okay. I don’t want to. But let me know how he is, okay?" I said as I adjusted myself on the bed, making sure I was completely covered by the sheet.

"Okay. I’ll let you know," Jaguar replied, leaning down to kiss my forehead.

Then he got out of bed and headed for the door.

As soon as he left, I rushed over and locked it before Mrs. Baker could barge in.

She always did.

I turned around with the sheet still wrapped around me, clutching it tightly at the front.

Confused.

As I replayed my reaction in my mind, I frowned.

"What the fuck happened to me?" I scratched my scalp.

I’d been so overwhelmed by feelings I didn’t even realize that I hadn’t reacted properly to Jaguar.

I should’ve shown him I was worried about how he was feeling.

Instead, I hadn’t.

I hadn’t even asked if he was okay.

Then I realised why he’d been so willing to take me with him.

He wanted to be seen with me, and it was far too soon for that.

I didn’t want Theodore to think we were together.

Sighing, I walked into my bathroom, dropped the sheet, and stepped under the shower, once again realising I’d almost made the mistake of giving myself to Jaguar so easily.

We were supposed to have two hundred interactions.

He could get himself off a thousand times before he ever got anywhere near my pussy.

Once I walked out of the bathroom, I felt a strange pain in my chest.

It was confusing and worrying because how could such a young Alpha King have a heart attack?

Then another thought crossed my mind.

If an Alpha King could have one, then a human like me definitely could.

I was basically human since my wolf hadn’t awakened.

Clearing my throat, I sat down and checked my phone, waiting for Jaguar to tell me what was going on.

I’d messed up before, and I had to make up for not reacting the way I should have.

Me: Are you okay? Please don’t stress. Everything will be okay. Your brother will be fine soon.

I felt better after sending it, even though I was lying comfortably in my bed, hugging my pillow without a single worry.

Just when I thought I was about to fall asleep, a thought hit me.

It was as if I was desperately trying to convince myself that I was completely relaxed.

But something inside me wouldn’t let it go.

"Oh," I groaned, grabbing my phone, pulling my hands free from my pillow, and opening a search engine.

Man in a fox mask.

I typed the words and hit search.

Countless results appeared.

Masquerade masks.

Fox masks.

Costume parties.

People dressed as foxes.

Fox costumes.

But none of it was what I was looking for.

What confused me even more was that I’d convinced myself it had all been a dream after I’d hit my head.

Now, suddenly, the urge to look into it has returned.

This time, I grabbed my laptop instead.

Man who is a fox.

I tried search after search until I suddenly remembered something.

"Fox King," I whispered, immediately typing it into the search bar.

A large warning instantly appeared on my screen.

Not allowed. Inappropriate search.

My eyes widened.

I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, wondering if I was seeing it correctly.

Who is the Fox King?

I tried wording it differently.

The same warning appeared.

Invalid.

It was as if the words Fox King were blocked on every search engine.

Every thought that maybe it had all been a dream disappeared.

What the fuck was going on?

Could it be real?

It had to be.

Otherwise, why would such a simple, harmless phrase be banned?
