Bonus Shackled Angel..
When I wake up, it’s already dark.
The window is open, and I can hear the guys talking on the porch.
“Do you think she will suspect anything?” Stefan asks.
Is he talking about me? Suspect what? About Viviane? Are Stefan and Reyes in on whatever Alekos is trying to do?
“Angel is smart, but she’s been so tired lately that she didn’t notice she was wearing her skirt crooked earlier,” Alekos replied. “You know how she is when it comes to clothes.”
Dios. Mio. El muy gilipollas no me dijo nada.
Oh, my God. The dickhead didn’t say anything to me.
I need to call Wasp. She is the only one I know who will show up with a bottle of tequila and a shovel at any hour.
Alekos keeps talking. “As long as we act normal, she won’t suspect a thing. I’ll let Viviane know the details tonight.”
Tears sting my eyes. I thought I could trust the love Reyes and Stefan have for me, but even they don’t feel any remorse when it comes to cheating on me.
If they plan to act normal while scheming behind my back, I’ll do the same until we return to Veross City. Leaving them will most likely kill what’s left of my heart, but I’d rather raise my child alone than teach her that it’s alright to be cheated on.
I curl up in a ball and sob quietly in my pillow. I absolutely hate being a hellstar. Except for being emotionally tied to three assholes, there’s no advantage in being one. I wish I would have stayed in the Sanctuary. Then I would not be here, feeling worthless.
“Angel is in distress,” Reyes suddenly says.
“Do you think she heard us?” Alekos asks in a panicked voice.
I quickly clean my face of tears and focus on calming my breath.
Footsteps are heard around the bungalow, and seconds later, the door to the bedroom opens. They are checking to see if I’m awake. Not wanting them to know that I’ve overheard part of their discussion, I pretend I’m still sleeping. They stand in the doorway, watching me. I keep my breath even and my emotions in check.
“She is fine now,” Alekos lets out a sigh of relief.
I want to scream in his face that I know what a scumbag he is, but I know what they will do to me. I’m not about to be locked in another dark room or tied to a BDSM bench.
Stefan whispers, “Maybe we should continue our conversation later.”
I have already heard more than enough to know what they want to do.
“She must have had a nightmare. That’s why she was so… terrified,” Reyes murmurs. “I’m going to cuddle with her.”
“We will join in a moment,” Alekos says.
I don’t want to be touched by anyone right now. When Reyes slips inside the bed, his arm comes around my waist, and as he pulls me into his chest, I let him. Being betrayed by him hurts more than the heartache caused by Alekos. I thought we had something special. It was only in my head.
The night passes slowly, with Reyes holding me in his arms. When Alekos and Stefan join, it takes them minutes to fall asleep. I guess they don’t feel any remorse for plotting behind my back. The only one who knows something is wrong is Reyes. He doesn’t speak, and I’m grateful for the silence because I can think about what I’m going to do—how I’m going to convince my husbands not to cheat on me. I shouldn’t entertain this idea, but what option do I have? Alekos probably wants me as his baby-making machine while having a beautiful woman as an alternative. I’m not about to let that happen.
I never thought I’d do the pick-me-dance with the men who vowed to love me for all eternity, but I’m willing to do anything for my child. If I leave them, I’ll be too crippled emotionally to take care of her as she deserves. I understand why they want to cheat on me with Viviane. She is a bombshell. I get that, but why do this now when I am finally happy with them?
Alekos and Reyes have been clear from the beginning—they want a submissive wife, and I haven’t been that. Except in bed, where the guys have absolute control over me, I still fight them all the time. If I give them what they want, maybe they won’t break my heart.
