The Triplet Alphas' Secret Mate

Chapter 203: Pregnant

​Scarlett’s POV

​"So, you bitch, you are back," a familiar voice snapped. It was Bianca, Leo’s wife. Her eyes were filled with pure hatred as she glared at me.

​I completely ignored her. I didn’t give her the satisfaction of seeing me upset. Instead, I walked right past them and sat down calmly on the edge of the bed, crossing my legs.

​Bianca took a step closer, her face turning red with anger. "I thought you were supposed to be dead! How the fuck are you still alive?"

​I kept my face like stone and still ignored her, acting as if she were nothing but thin air. My silence was clearly driving her crazy.

​Then Talia, Leonard’s wife, spoke up. Her voice was sharp and cold. "You have to leave, Scarlett. You are not welcome here. This is our pack now, not yours."

​That was when I finally decided to speak. I looked up at them, my voice completely flat and unbothered. "You have no right to drive me away. Only the triplets can do that."

​Bianca let out a harsh laugh. "And we are their wives! We bear their marks!"

​I secretly scoffed at that. A wave of dark amusement washed over me because I knew the truth. The triplets had just admitted to me that those marks were fake, that they had never actually marked them. But I decided to play along with their little game just to see how far they would go.

​"Then if you are their wives and their chosen mates, why do you feel so insecure?" I asked, tilting my head with a mocking smile. "I am nothing to them now. If your bonds are so strong, my presence shouldn’t matter."

​The three of them instantly looked tense. They shifted on their feet, their angry scents turning a bit sour with nerves.

​"We know you were the triplets’ first love," Talia said, trying to hold her ground. "We know what you used to mean to them."
