AMAYA POV 

"I heard, Kristen disvirgined you". Amanda began, how could she have possibly heard that but did not hear that Kross's initial plan was to marry me?

"You must be important, despite everything Kris still making you his partner" Amanda Said smiling devilishly.

Hi

I turned to look at Kris who nodded meaning I could go ahead and tell her a piece of my mind.

"You are right, it turns out that Kristen couldn't resist me," I said dishing out my breakfast and Kris couldn't stop smiling either.

"Ohh least I forgot Kris, why is Kross not coming home frequently?." I asked Kris who smiled before responding.

"Maybe he is avoiding something." Kris played along while Amanda just stared at both of us.

"Is it because I refused to marry him". I whispered and Kris just chuckled.

"That's true he seems to be avoiding you because he still feels embarrassed due to the rejection" Kris added before calling the maids to bring his coat.

"Are you going somewhere?" I asked.

"I need to be somewhere but I would be back before dinner." He replied and walked out. Why, how could he leave me alone with Amanda, does he want us to start fighting with each other?

"So you have the triplets wrapped around your fingers because of what?" She asked standing up from her initial seat and now standing at my front while I just ignored her presence, she pulled my hair aggressively making me shout in pain as I tried to push her away from me but shouldn't let go.

"Amanda, stop pulling me and talk ". I pleaded but all she did was giggle at me.

"I was gently talking to you like a person but you kept pretending like you were deaf or something". She said before letting go of my hair and pushing my head at the same time.

"You bitch". She added and just as she turned around Kross was standing at the doorway looking very angry.

I know my hair which she pulled pained me like hell but still I loved the fact that Kross caught her trying to manipulate me.

"Why are you back in this house Amanda?." Kross asked giving his coat to the maids standing beside us.

"Honey, this is my house too". She cooed like a child which was annoying.

"I don't want you hear, pack your stupid belongings and leave". Kross instructed but she was still seated like she could not hear any of the things he just said.

"Are you deaf!!". He yelled making the both of us shiver.

"Kross, stop this rubbish you know I am still pregnant with your child and I am supposed to be under your care so don't try to abandon me". She pleaded.

"You already made a mistake by saying stupid things to Amaya, despite knowing how impossible she is to me". Kross said to her while I tried my best to hold in the laughter in me.

"I never knew she was important to you". 

"But you were aware that she belongs to Kris". Kross asked making Amanda more surprised that Kris was not trying to protect me when he called me his partner but it was the truth, I belonged to Kris.

"I thought it was a joke and nothing else, I never believed anything I heard". Amanda opposed making me laugh.

"Well, you better believe it because she belongs to my brother and Kristen marked her so be careful how you talk to her". Kross warned before walking upstairs, after he had climbed up the stairs everything started to make sense to me. Kross ignored me earlier, the only thing he did was warn Amanda not to harm me.

Amanda sat there totally silent, I stood up and found my way to Kross's bedroom.

I prayed to my God multiple times and breathed in heavily before knocking on his door which he opened almost immediately.

"Amaya no". He said about to close the door when I quickly placed my foot on the door stopping him from closing the door.

"I am trying to not disobey Kris". He said.

"I am not here to flirt or tempt you, I just want to know more about Kris". I replied.

"You should ask him that, the only thing I can tell you is Kris can be very crazy sometimes". Kross replied but everything was still very confusing.

"Please Kross, I want to know what I wrong and why Kris I training to be like him instead of just a mere fighter". I asked but he groaned.

"Kristen told you all this right?" He asked which I nodded positively to.

"That bastard, can you believe what he told people in the club?" How was I supposed to know that, all I have been doing since I came to this mansion was training and becoming good at standing up for myself not gossiping, but I can't say all that to Kross.

"He claimed you and said I got interested in you after you accepted him, he is making it seem like we are all at war with each other because of you ". What's going on with the triplets, they all seem to be saying different things to me but all in all end it with a war between themselves. I don't love any of them, even with what Calvin did to me he remains the only man I ever loved.

"Kristen would never get through to me and that includes loving him, he is just playing tricks with you because of what conspired between you two so do not worry about him anymore," I said about to leave when Kross pulled me back.

"Don't fall in love with any of us, that is the only way to protect us from each other's wrath". He whispered before letting go of me.

Later in the night after training with a few other fighters, I still couldn't feel at ease so many things were going through my

mind and mostly the fact that Kris was no longer reacting about the gem I lost, they said it was his most precious possession and I lost it.

Does that mean that I am his most priceless possession?
