“Ask what?” I said. Then I dropped my fork in surprise when I saw all three alphas get up from their chairs and kneel on one knee before me with Sergio in the middle. My heart beat fasterwhen Sergio pulled out a little red box from the inside of his blazer.
“With your family’s blessings, I am here before you now,” he started to the sound of low music playing on the radio. “My pack stands united, not only by the bond of brotherhood but also by the love and devotion we hold for you. I don’t want to spend another day without you, Olivia Moonworth.”
Tears streamed down my face as I watched him open the box containing a ring for me. An actual engagement ring. They didn’t think I was too damaged to be with them, and my heart pounded furiously in my chest.
Evan and Ian were gazing at me with love in their eyes.
“Will you do me the honor of marrying myself and my pack?” continued Sergio. I was already nodding and crying as he slipped the ring onto my trembling finger.
“Yes,” I said. “Yes to all of you.”
I got up from the chair, hugging Sergio and kissing him on the lips to the cheers of my family in the background. I turned to kiss Ian and Evan next, who were equally as excited to marry me as I was to them. The ring was beautiful, with white and rose gold intertwined in an elegant braid, and in the center was a diamond surrounded by three gemstones of different vibrant colors.
The sapphire, ruby, and amethyst representing each alpha formed a colorful halo.
“Our omega fiance,” said Ian.
“Will you move in with us then?” asked Evan, and my heart beat even faster at that question. It was a major commitment. But it was a commitment I was willing to take part in.
“Yes,” I said, laughing as they all looked at me with shock in their eyes. “I love you all.”
“We love you too, baby,” said Ian, lifting me in his arms, and I squealed.
“Smile for the camera!” my mom said.
I looked up, seeing my mother ready with her camera, and I smiled as she took several pictures of me with my alphas. It was a peaceful, beautiful moment as I took pictures with my alphas and my dads cracking jokes with their future sons-in-law.
I will never forget tonight.
“Let’s get your things packed,” my mother said after we were done taking pictures. While the men laughed and talked outside, I joined my mom back into my bedroom. She magically pulled suitcases out of nowhere.
“You knew this was going to happen,” I accused laughingly.
“I did,” she said, unzipping the suitcases. “As long as you’re happy about it, then I’m happy for you.”
I lifted my clothes from the closet, dropping them into the suitcase. “Trust me, I’m happy. The alphas make me happy.”
“I knew it,” she said, carefully packing my accessories. “Your face glows when you’re around them. Even before everything that happened to you, you seem happiest when you’re with them.”
Thirty-Three
OLIVIA
As we drove away from my childhood home, a sadness settled over me. I was going to miss home, but it had gotten to the point where I had to make a decision. And I didn’t regret it. I had spent enough time with Sergio to know that I trusted him with my life.
My suitcases jumbled around in the trunk as we drove away.
“I can tell that you already miss being at home,” said Ian, observing me in the darkness of the backseat.
“Not really,” I said. “It’s gotten too suffocating being at home with my parents since I’m their only child. It’s about time I move out.”
“It’s okay to feel a little sad,” said Ian.
“Okay, fine, I do,” I said, and he tightened his hand around mine. I was going to miss my mother’s cooking, painting with her, and writing in my room. The little life that I had known forever was gone now. Ian wrapped his arm around me while Evan gripped my right thigh.
It felt warm and comfortable being surrounded by them. As I played with the ring on my finger, my heart swelled when I reminded myself that they were my fiances now. I was going to be a wife soon, and that feeling just felt right to me.
“Ah, we’re to be married soon. I hope you’re excited about wedding planning,” said Sergio from the driver’s seat.
