Mated to alpha triplets at all-boys school Chapter 37
Ethan pov
Really pisses me off to sit back and wait. Even more so when my brothers suddenly take over the situation like some princes fucking charming.
First, it’s Elias who’s sent to find Ash, not me. Why him, damn it? Haven’t I made it perfectly clear that I’m into that little thing and I would die to chase him around wherever he goes?
Alright, I can let that slide. I know, yes, that’s me - the man of the self control of a saint, yes, sir.
However, when Elias returns and Everett is the one who leaves to check on Ash, again, instead of me, I feel like I’m left hanging on the brink of my life. Why them and not me?
I swear, life is so against me that even the Goddess decided I’m of no use to her. Why can’t she, I don’t know, like mate us or some shit? That way, I could keep Ash all to myself and he wouldn’t have a chance to escape me ever again.
Honestly, if that was the case, the little shit would be marching around, proudly showing off my mark to every fuckface in his way. Am I obsessed? Maybe just a tiny bit. Am I crazy about getting to know him and making him mine? Fuck yes.
“Stop sulking,” Elias grumbles and slaps my shoulder. “Ev will check on your little friend, ensure he can follow the damn commands and bring him here. You’ll see your little sweetheart in no time.”
“I’m not sulking,” I grumble and glance at my phone screen, as if someone would be texting me these days.
Ever since we joined the Academy, our social life has gone down into the drain. Everett rarely plays hockey anymore, Elias is still somewhat lucky because he can just jump on his motorcycle and drive off to see his friend, but me.. Well, I haven’t gone to even one band practice in ages so I wouldn’t be surprised if the guys already tossed me away.
“Yes, you are,” Elias chuckles. “This is the first time I see you like this. You’re acting so out of character, I’m getting a little worried. Don’t get me wrong, I’m amused as shit to watch you follow that boy like some lost puppy, but this behavior worries me too. Should I call mom and dad?”
At the mention of our parents, panic surges through me and my eyes widen. Not because they would be dicks about the situation or my sudden obsession, but because of how they worry. Everything that concerns their sons is a catastrophe and they would likely try to pull me out of school. Yeah, not happening.
I start shaking my head like crazy and open my mouth to protest, but Elias just laughs at me.
“That’s what I thought. Look at yourself, I nearly have to threaten you to get you to pull your head out of your ass, brother. Start focusing a little more and I won’t have to pull off dirty tricks like this one.”
When he throws his arm around me to pull me closer, all I can think about is how much I want to punch Elias right in his jaw. Preferably break it in the process to teach him a lesson.
I really hate how my misery is his entertainment. Both Elias and Everett act like they’re super older than me and smarter too. They won’t let go of a chance to bully me like some youngest child and completely disregard my emotions.
“It would be kind of awesome, cool and overall amazing if you could cut your shit, Elias.” I growl and slap his arm away from me.
In response, he raises his hands and starts laughing again. “I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings, baby brother. All I’m doing is pointing out that you’re getting a little overboard with this new obsession. I swear, you might like the guy more than you like your guitars at this point. And must I remind you that you really love your guitars?”
“Well, maybe I do,” I admit, but not loud enough for Elias to catch on the words the very moment Everett and Ash stride into the stupid room.
As expected, Everett looks full of himself, the embodiment of confidence and calmness while Ash remains behind, an anxious ball of stress.
His so-called best friend rushes to Ash’s side and pulls him into a tight hug. That should have been me who hugs the little thing to his chest and whispers reassuring words. It should be me who gets to hold him close and never let go. Moreover, it should be me who’s hugged by Ash like that.
Life is fucking unfair, damn it!
As those two stand there, embraced, whispering something to each other, I keep glaring at them both. Funny enough, I feel like my brothers are doing the same thing. The only problem is that I’m not sure why - are they standing by me and showing support or are they trying to steal what is mine now?
That’s right, fuckers, I said it - Ash Kingston is mine and I’ll be damned if any other guy gets closer to him than I can. It’s just that the little thing doesn’t know that yet.
It’s fine, time will teach him the lesson of a lifetime and if he learns how to behave, in no time, Ash will enjoy the perks of my mark. Fuck yes, imagine how awesome would it be to have two Alphas mated to each other. Epic.
Stuck in my thoughts, I nearly miss the moment when Ash and his friend start walking towards the back of the room. My legs move towards them before I can process the action, but both of my brothers are at my side to stop me from doing anything stupid.
“I get it, but don’t. Ash already tried to run away, I found him in the forest. If you really are serious about the guy, I suggest you really pull your head out of your ass and think for once. Stop scaring him away.”
“Agreed,” Everett adds. “And besides, if you haven’t caught on the stench of shit yet, Kaiden is here and we’re supposed to be on our best behavior near that asswipe. Calm the fuck down.”
