《Rejected Mate》Chapter 15: The unexpected meeting
Advertisement
"Jacqueline what do you think of my outfit."
Jacqueline turned around she was already heading for the door but I caught her before she could even grab the handle
"you look beautiful."
she smiled and that's all I need but I still needed to apologize to her.
"OK let them in. I'll be waiting on top of the stairs until everybody's here."
------------------------------------------------
30 minutes later
------------------------------------------------
Jacqueline text me saying it was time for me to come now. so I text back telling her to tell everybody that I was coming down.
As I descended down the stairs all I heard was beautiful, wow, gorgeous, Magnifique, and other words.
As I made it down everyone said hello and hi to me.
"Hello everybody. Jacqueline is everyone here already."
"Yes, your majesty. everyone is accounted for already."
"Everyone as in who."
I whispered to her.
"Alpha Damien his beta Carsten which is his twin brother and delta Sergio. Also, the triplets are her Morticia, Matilda, and Marnie."
OK everyone's here then. no one is missing.
"OK then follow me then."
After a few minutes, we finally made it to the dining room but I really just wanted this day to be over with because I need to talk with the girls.
"Ok. Please sit down."
When I went to go sit down all three boys came to help me with my chair. I laughed a little but I said thank afterwards.
"Your house is very lovely. I'm surprised you kept most of the natural wood." Morticia announced. why did it have to be her? Why couldn't it be somebody else? I mean, to be honest, I thought she would've been quiet since we're eating but I guess not.
So like I said we were eating something for the appetizer right now, and we're eating prosciutto crostini with burrata and lemon honey drizzle.
after finishing the appetizer we moved on to the entrée which was spicy prawn linguine ( aka - spicy spaghetti with shrimp).
Once we were all done finishing or at least kind of full we moved on to the last meal. Desert.
"Is anybody ready for the desert?"
I received a lot of yes and mmm hmm so I took that as a yes.
"Jorge!"
1 minute went by
"Jorge!"
My patience is giving up. Where is this man?
"Yes, your Majesty."
He looked like he came running from somewhere cause he was out of breath.
"You ok there. can you breathe or do you need to sit down."
"No, I'm good."
"Are you sure jorge? Estas Bien. cause if your not you can leave and go home or to the doctor."
"May I please go then."
"Yes, you may."
"Jacqueline come and help me in the kitchen."
both me and her walk towards the kitchen and grabbed all the desserts needed. we walked back and gave everybody one then started eating.
There were four desserts to choose from a chocolate cake with moose and strawberries or vanilla cake with strawberries and whip cream or a raspberry cream yogurt with a waffle or you could choose a side of fruit cocktail in a glass filled with white wine.
Everyone ate each dessert especially the fruit. I knew why. It's because it had alcohol in it. But if they liked it then ok.

It was time for them to go but I told the girls to stay. I needed to talk to them. I need to figure out what secret they are keeping from me.
Damien and the boys left. it was time for me to talk to the girls.
"Jacqueline round up the girls and meet me in the library. now!"
she looks scared but all she did was shake her head and left to find the girls. I went to the library. that is where my office is. That is where I will let my wrath on them for keeping a secret. and that they should have told the queen the secret. they shouldn't have kept it because sooner or later I was going to find out.
I waited in my office. the clocked ticked and ticked, but finally, they all walked in one by one.
They looked nervous so I told them to sit in the gray chairs except for Jacqueline. I told her to stay standing. She has some explaining to do. They all have some explaining to do.
"Y'all are keeping a secret and I know what it is. if one of you finds out something and doesn't tell me. what makes you think I won't find out."
They looked like they were gonna have a heart attack or something but they were OK. they're just confused on how I know about the premonition. I mean I really don't know. I just know somebody didn't tell me she saw something bad that's the reason but they should have all told me.
"Now, who's gonna tell me who was the one that said no let's not tell her."
"Jacqueline."
"Jacqueline."
"Jacqueline."
Morticia Matilda and Marnie all said, Jacqueline. So when I looked towards her she was looking at the triplets with sadness like they through her under the bus. So I pulled her to the side and asked her but she started crying well not crying but her eyes were red and she looked like she didn't even want to be here anymore.
So I took her all the way on the other side of the room and asked her
"Who really did it."
"I..i...i..it .w..wa..was..wasnt..m..me."
She didn't even answer my question. She couldn't even speak properly. So I asked again.
"Jacqueline who was the one that said no to not telling me."
she kept on crying so I had to grab her by the shoulders.
"Jacqueline calm down now!"
Her crying started to calm down but I needed her to speak.
"Do you think you can tell me now? which one out of the triplets told everybody not to tell me."
She just looked at me and then looked back at the triplets.
"Don't tell me you're scared of them."
"No!"
"And she speaks. So you gonna answer me or what."
"It was Morticia." I barely heard the name since she whispered it to me but I knew they didn't.
Morticia has been doing this a lot lately and I need to get a hold of her.
"Go sit down on the white chair."
"triplets I need to talk to y'all. I know all three of y'all work together. apparently throwing miss Jacqueline under the bus or something means One of you are the liars."

"You have no Proof."
"She's lying. "
"accusations."
"I'm guessing I'm right. Jacqueline get out of here and go check the kids."
She leaves and I turn back to the triplets. they look nervous but the masked their face so I won't see fear.
"You know one thing Jacqueline never told me the one that said no. she's a true friend witch. I gave her a decision. she didn't backstab y'all and y'all did. So for that and not owning up to it, I'm the one that gets to find out on my own."
"How?" Morticia had asked so I just gave her a stare, and then I started the spell.
to see the truth,
to know the way,
I cast a spell in every way.
by the power of one
I conjure thee
to give thy truth unto me.
"What are you d?...aaaaaahhhhh...."
That's what most of them said until they went unconscious and Jacqueline came in Asking if everyone was ok but when she saw the girls unconscious she asked if I was ok. I just nodded my head and she left.
After five minutes, I decided to wake them up so I said a word.
'despertarse'
and then they woke up, gasping, looking around. until all of their eyes were on (me).
"well, it was about time y'all woke up."
Morticia was the first one to talk. she's always the first one, can't she ever let the others talk
"what did you do to us? "
" Oh Morticia you just don't learn, do you. do you want me to do it again." I raised my hand and they all said no. they knew if I raise my hand there's some kind of spell was going to come out but I was just going to play around and see if they were going to say something but they were quiet. I guess I gotta talk now cause if they're not talking then I have to talk.
"so who's going to tell me the one that said no because I told y'all that Jacqueline did not tell me. I know what you're keeping from me. I just don't know who got a premonition. Even though y'all are that bonded do you really think I won't bring out the voice?"
they all looked at each other and then they looked at me and then they all looked at Morticia. Marnie wanted to say something but it's like when she did it didn't come out.
"what's wrong Marnie. you have to say something or somebody holding you back."
she shook her head then went back been quiet.
"OK if that's how y'all wanna do it. fine. "
I told them all to stand up and they did right next to each other and I got right in front of them but not to close. they did this on themselves. all three of them have premonition powers. all witches have premonition power. some just don't know how to control it or there is some that do know how to control it but there are some witches that are more powerful and there are some that are less powerful and that's what I'm trying to figure out right now who had a premonition and who decided to not tell me.
[Queen Voice]
"I asked y'all twice before. I put y'all to sleep and when I woke y'all up. do I have to use my authoritative voice on y'all all the time for y'all to listen? Huh, tell me. because right now my Darkside is creeping up and for you to hide something this crucial you shouldn't even be here right now. do you know that none of y'all should be here and yet I have you right here in my office? inside my house, each of you better start talking."
"it was Morticia!" Marnie said. she looks like she was going to cry because she blabbed on her sister but she didn't wanna get a fireball thrown at her so she's safe for now no I just need another sister to tell me if Morticia was the one.
"Anyone else to make that claim. What about you Matilda." Morticia gave Matilda a stare but Matilda said sorry and turn back towards me.
"Yes, it was her. I'm so sorry sister."
I looked towards Morticia and she looked like she was gonna cry. So I went to talk to her in private.
"let's go talk in private. girls go with Jacqueline in the living room, me and Morticia are going to talk."
Once they walked out of the room I turned towards Morticia. I called her to sit down next to me on the white couches so we could talk.
But as soon as I called her I saw a tear fall.
She tried to act hard but I could see she lost trust in her sisters.
"What's wrong? "
"I thought I could trust them. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I was the one that had a premonition and I told Jacqueline Matilda and Marnie. they wanted to tell you but I told them no. I was still trying to figure out a way to tell you. a calm way to tell you. but I was too late and now you know and I'm sorry please forgive me. I am so sorry."
"The thing is you can trust them but I gave you an ultimatum. I told you that Jacqueline didn't give y'all up but none of y'all told me who was responsible so you made me go the hard way. you know I do not like using that voice. I only use it when I need to. you could've just told me why you kept it from me."
she stopped crying and I was happy about it. I don't know why though I lied to them saying I know about the premonition. the thing is I don't know about a premonition. I just know one of them had a premonition and it was terrible. I have to figure out what Morticia saw.
"so can you explain fully what you saw in your premonition?"
she looked at me like wondering why would I ask a certain question if I already knew the answer but she told me anyway.
"I saw you with a man.
you were in a library this library
he has come back for you. to take you back home. when you heard those words y'all fought but then y'all made up and then y'all fought again and then y'all made up again and that's when The premonition stopped and I told the girls and Jacqueline told me about Tristen.
if Tristen is coming to get you this visit won't be so pleasant. y'all might fight and you might not. that is all up to you."

The life of a teenage hellworlder
We've all heard of the trope that Earth is a deadly planet by galactic standard; and has thus honed humanity into a ruthless species bent on surviving at all costs. As it turns out, that trope is true. Sapient species that evolve on safe planets develop to be peaceful and compassionate - and the ones that do on dangerous ones become violent and selfish out of need - usually wiping themselves out. But obviously, not every violent species drives itself to extinction - resulting in them being feared and ostracized - including humans. The life of a teenage hellworlder is a sci-fi slice of life story that revolves mainly around Thomas, a sixteen-year-old New Britannian attending a Xeno high school, who befriends a lonely apex predator named Javqua. Getting written by two amateur teen writers, things may sometimes be inconsistent or be confusing - feel free to comment and point out these problems. Gore, profanity, and traumatizing content tags are only for minor events in the story and do not happen often. Chapters are around 1k - 2k words - pretty short, but that's because we're all busy with our own lives and school. Trust us - we would gladly upload 5k word chapters if we could. We tend to upload new chapters every Saturday or Sunday. Please consider supporting us on Patreon!

8 243Shattered Realms - A Pathfinder/D&D game
Broke adventurers looking for a quick and easy paycheck are thrust together as circumstances around them get weirder and weirder. Authors note: This is an ongoing Pathfinder (DnD) game, which will inevitably contain references to other works due to the nature of nerds. Chapters will be random lengths, mostly as long as a game session and depending on how much I can embelish it. Also, some details may change retroactively to maintain consistency. I'm not going to write it as LitRPG, mostly because that's extra work. I'd rather the flow of the story not be interrupted by numbers. I am aiming for updates within a week or two of the game session, which will usually be weekly. Finally, there is a light swearing, gore and sexual references warning. I will update this warning if needed, but will also not write in anything that's too graphic or irrelevant to the story.
