On the day of prom, her dear mate rejected her claiming she meant absolutely nothing to him and mocking her body size. She was humiliated and mocked by fellow students as she battled to leave the crowd, she thought her misery had come to an end not until she pumped into the Trio brothers and broke and artistic pearl that belongs to them. "You belong to us! consider it a bondage contract."
CHAPTER ONE.
I stumbled back, the pain struck me like thunderbolt, leaving my senses shattered as a broken vase.
I shivered, swallowed by an abyss of despair, one that could lead me agonizing for eternity.
Tears raced down my burning face as I watched everyone laughing and mocking me scornfully.
"I Braden Inez, future alpha of the stone moon pack, reject you useless omega as my mate."
His words hit me like a stray bullet and I struggled to gain balance.
My shoulders slumped, the weight of my grief pulled me down, the embarrassment of being called a DUFF (dumb, ugly, fat,friend.)
I pulled my mouth to speak but my strength failed me, my tears uncontrollable as I watched those I called "friends." laughing and taunting me.
"Don't cry Ava, you're stronger than this." I muttered to myself trying to get off the floor.
"I'm so sorry you had to find out this way darling." Jessica giggled, her eyes burning with hatred. Everything seemed weird, a few hours ago, we were all gossiping and laughing about how fun prom was gonna be. To crown it all, Jessica had specially given me the dress I wore to the party. She said she wanted me to look good so Braden won't be able to resist my charms.
She wrapped her hands around Braden who kissed her softly on the lips, right in front of me.
The pang increased inside me and I sniffled, amazed, all these things had been happening and I never got a hint about it.
"I thought we were best friends." I spoke, my voice trembling.
"Really? Why would a classy girl like me want to be with an ugly bulldog like you? Your dressing sense is terrible, you look worn out! And you disgust me, hell! you're only good at math and running errands and that's the only reason why I was stuck with you for so long." She blurted almost immediately.
Just then, students started cheering at them and throwing empty cans of soda and beer at me, while others watched and laughed while the rest brought out their various cell phones and started taking pictures of my shameful moments. I knew what was coming next. I'll be on everyone's social media page for at least two weeks, not that I cared, I'm getting used to it, but I knew they could get even more violent and I could get severely hurt.
I started making my way out as people started pushing me, my dress was stripped off by Jessica who was the devil who had given it to me in the first place, I sobbed, my eyes swollen and I was unable to see clearly any more. I was left wearing my shorts and bra. How worse could my day turn? I weeped racing towards the entrance. As I ran I felt eyes on me and people laughing but I didn't care, I just needed to get out of this hell.
I suddenly bumped into something, sorry someone! The shattering of glass got my attention and I was forced to look back, there he was, standing and glaring angrily at me as though I had done something beyond pardon.
I wiped off the tears on my face that prevented me from seeing who I had bumped into and the moment I realized who it was, I gulped down knowing I had gotten myself into deep shit.
Grey Academy, which is my school is owned by the famous business tycoon Colby Lynch.
Known to also be the Mayor of the city and a prime minister of country. Just a few weeks ago, the school was stunned when his sons transferred to our school.
Three hot, sexy, super cool, ruthless and charming demons joined the school. Girls drooled over them and graced at their feet while the guys wanted to be in their good books.
I shivered, as my attention dropped on the glass he was holding,that had just shattered into a million pieces. My gaze returned to their angelic faces that had already turned dark and I took a step back realizing the implication of what I had just done.
"I'm sorry." I fumbled, unable to speak properly as I drifted further away from them and made my way towards the exit.
There was a sudden calmness and graveyard silence as everyone was stunned the triplets let me go so easily.

"Thank you." I said to the taxi man, who dropped me in front of my house.
By now, my drenched cloth had dried up and my hair stuck to my scalp looking all dirty and scattered, but I didn't mind.
I just walked into the house, composing myself in the best manner possible. My wolf whimpered in hurt, she was just as pained as I was. One thing we never expected, was the people closest to us, treating us this way, or should I say being the cause of our current predicament?
I remembered, when I just joined the school, I was body shamed, bullied for having a sick, weak mum, no friends to stand up for me,nor defend me. I was valuable, and craved for how it would atleast feel like, to be cared for. So, when, Braden came and offered to be my friend, I immediately agreed, for he was the head of the popular basket ball club in school and I so baldy deserved warmth, and care, since, I never really experienced them.
He introduced me to Jessica and Francesca, who I immediately warmed up to. I ran alot of errands for them, did their homeworks and sometimes, even took blames for their wrong behaviors at school..I always did what they wanted, for I never wanted them to get angry at me and leave.
' How foolish I was' I thought. The signs were clearly there, but I choose to be stupid and just ignored them. The mockery looks, they sometimes had on their faces, Braden and Jessica sneaky meetings, their laughters together, the seductive smile and winks.
I clasped my mouth over my mouth, to hold back my cry, as I leaned against the door of my room and slid to the floor gently. The signs were all there and visible, and those two never tried to really hide it from me, for they knew I was an idiot.
I remembered a time, I, Braden and Jessica went to the mall for shopping. Braden and Jessica left together not too long,with the excuse of having a program together. Another time, we were suppose to go, watch a movie together. This time, including Francesca. Braden and Jessica bailed on me, and Francesca coincidentally also left, receiving a message from her mum to come help her.
' Oh! no' I thought in disbelief, shivering and hiccupping from too much tears.
' Where did it all go wrong?' I wondered. Tonight was prom, I was to be Braden's date ofcourse. Jessica lent me, one of her hand me gowns, since I had no extra money to spare for a dress, after paying my mum's hospital bills.
I had a late shift, and when I got home, Jessica and Francesca already left, so I got dressed alone for the night and went to the party. Upon on getting there, I started looking for my friend and boyfriend immediately, when I started perceiving the most delicious scent ever. I craved for the scent, and Gilly, my wolf started jumping up and down in my head.
" MATE!' she growled, and I gasped in shock, forgetting my mission to figure out where my friends were, and started chasing the scent, till it led me to Braden, my boyfriend. I was stunned, and at the same time, happy.
I guess, he also figured it out, for he widened his eyes in shock, before it was filled with absolute disgust, rage and hatred. I stumbled back in shock at those expressions, I just witnessed in his eyes. I blinked, hoping I was perhaps hallucinating, from too much excitement, but when I opened my eyes, it was still there.
" It can't be" He growled so loudly attracting attention.
" There is no way in hell, I would ever accept a fatso, unattractive, looking girl like you, as my mate" He yelled at me furiously, and I stumbled back in excruciating pain, feeling my heart slicing into two.
The loud music blaring suddenly stopped, as everyone gasped, turning to look at the drama going on. I was now the center of attention.
