Shackled Chapter 113
- Angel
“This place is an absolute paradise,” I hum with happiness while we eat ice cream in a small coffee shop in Bora Bora.
Our ‘short‘ vacation has turned into a long one, and we have visited a few places before we return to the States. Today is Bora Bora, and tomorrow…we shall see then, as we haven’t made a plan. We only stop when we need fuel and to
restock our pantry.
Things between Alekos, Reyes, and Stefan are back to normal, which makes me very happy. I never want them to fight
again.
“It is,” Stefan agrees.
For months, the pain in my chest made it difficult for me to breathe, but lately, my heart is lighter, the pain slowly disappearing. There are many things we need to work on, but they managed to gain my trust and somehow my-
“The beach is very beautiful at night. How about we take a walk after dinner?” Reyes suggests.
1 smile. “I think it is a wonderful idea. Can I have a milkshake?”
Alekos chuckles. “Lately, you have been craving ice cream and sweets every day. We better fill up the freezer before we
leave.”
“Can we get a chocolate cake as well?” I want to know.
My belly seems to grow more each day, and with it, my love for food as well. If I keep eating the way I did in the past week or so, I will gain a lot of weight.
Alekost hand covers my stomach. “Whatever you want,” he k*sses me, “Agapi.”
Our start was rough, and he hurt me many times, but spending time with him on the yacht allowed me to see the real him. He might be dominating and possessive and controlling, but he also loves to take care of me and makes me feel
sale.
I never thought I would say such a thing, but they are slowly starting to learn that it’s not all about them. But being on a yacht made us get really close. They even organized date nights or movie marathons. My favorite time is when we cook together or snuggle in bed and talk for hours.
I think my baby and I will be alright.
After I am done with my milkshake, we go to the beach. We spend a few hours enjoying the warm water of the Pacific Ocean and then watch the sunset,
The ocean fills with sparkling dots. I remember reading once about it, something related to plankton. I watch the waves for a long time and even take a few photos with my phone.
“This is so pretty!” I squeal suddenly.
The guys are quiet, and I turn to look at them.

A low gasp leaves my l*ps.
My heart starts racing.
All three of them are on one knee, Stefan holding a small ring box in his hand, Reyes a pair of custom metal BDSM cuffs, and Alekos a discreet leather choker.
“What are you doing?” I ask. A small part of my brain already knows, but what if I am wrong?
“Schatzi,” Stefan starts to say, “be our wife.”
He said these same words back in Tazacorta, the first time we had S**. I thought he was bluffing, but he really meant
- it.
“Nena, you were mine from the moment I saw you. Casate con nosotros.”
Marry us.
And then Alekos says, “Monadiki ke pantotini mou Agapi, tha mas pantreftis?”
I don’t know Greek, so he translates for me, “My one and only forever love, will you marry us?”
Tears swirl in my eyes, and I can’t even speak.
I fought so hard against them but why do it when it is so obvious they want me forever.
-love.
I love them. My heart is shackled to them for all eternity, their names a permanent tattoo on my soul.
They wait for me to reply.
“Yes,” I somehow manage to find my voice.
I choose to forgive and forget everything and have a fresh start with them and our unborn baby.
And then I feel it.
Invisible strings wrapping around us, binding us together, our souls merging, and a link establishing between us.
They stand fast and surround me,
“The bond,” Alekos starts.
“Is back, Reyes continues.
“And a mark is forming behind her left ear,” Stefan finishes. “A bumblebee?”
I rub the flesh behind my ear. My nickname in the Sisterhood was not a random choice. It is my hellstar mark. I have felt it for a long time, but it only becomes visible when a hellstar accepts her mates. Or so Wasp claims.
Bonu

Through the bond, I can feel their happiness and love for me and our baby. Alekos is the first to hug me and k*ss me and then he spins me.
“The bond is back,” he shouts with so much joy it makes me so emotional, that I start to cry.
“Happy tears,” I say when he stops in the middle of the beach.
Reves snatches me away. “Te amo.”
“I love you, too,” I confess and he k*sses me with so much gentleness my heart fills with happiness.
Stefan takes me from Reyes” arms. “You are my one and only Schatzi.”
“My heart belongs to you also,” I say and his eyes shine with unshed tears. I k*ss him and say, “Let’s go home and have
the Piercing Ceremony.
