Adopted by an Alpha, Claimed by three Chapter 26
CHAPTER 26EDENKalen's eyes widened, his royal guards instantly unsheathing their claws that hovered inches from Jaxon's throat. Up on the balcony, Princess Rhaenys stood up from her throne, her lips curving into a sharp dangerous smile. “Step back, Alpha Vance,” Kalen said, his voice dropping into a deadly, quiet register. “I hope your intention isn't to hold the crown back.”Jaxon didn't move a muscle. His grip on Kalen's wrist turned his knuckles white. I could feel the raw, suffocating heat of his Alpha aura radiating off his back wrapping around me like a physical shield. He was going to get himself killed right here on the sand, and he knew it.“Jaxon,” Asher's voice cut through the air, cool and razor-sharp.Asher stepped down onto the dirt, completely ignoring the swords. He placed a steady hand on Jaxon's shoulder, his gray eyes locking onto the Crown Prince with smooth, practiced diplomacy. “Forgive Professor Vance, Your Highness,” Asher said softly, his voice carrying e

CHAPTER 25EDEN Jaxon's grip on my arm was crushing, his fingers digging straight into my flesh as if trying to anchor me to the dirt.I stood frozen. The thick, metallic taste of copper was heavy on my tongue. My heart slammed against my ribs as I stared into Jaxon's panic-stricken eyes.I had done something terrible, I knew it. Kia had taken control for a second, and I didn't even know what she had done to Maya..Before I could demand and answer, three Council Judges cut across the field, their heavy robes kicking up dust as they mounted the stand and called out the results.“That strike carried out by Eden Thomas was unknown which in turn makes that win none and void!” The Lead Judge shouted, pointing a gloved finger at the dead assassin on the floor. “She moved with unnatural speed, killing another wolf when she could have easily granted mercy. She acted like a savage, like a complete mongrel. We demand her removal from the matches!”I pulled against Jaxon's grip, stepping up t

CHAPTER 24EDEN Chaos exploded across the sunlit dirt. Entrants clashed in a sudden bloodbath of steel and fangs.Maya immediately ducked behind me, her hands grabbing the back of my leather vest like a shield.“Eden! Don't let them hit me! Block the right! Incoming from the left!”Let me out, Kia screamed in the back of my mind, her claws tearing at my consciousness.My vision flashed dark red. The urge to submit to her, to let her tear through every throat on this sand, slammed against my ribs.I shoved Kia down with every ounce of my willpower, Exposing my true wolf in front of Crown Prince Kalen and Princesses Rhaenys and Flora meant instant execution. “Shut up, Maya!” I gritted out through clenched teeth, my muscles straining against the pressure, as her grip on my caused more harm on my neck. “Let go of my vest or I'll throw you to them!”Maya fell back, scrambling back a foot, her face pale,The initial wave of fighters cleared, leaving a brief lull in the dust. as the assassi

CHAPTER 23EDEN It's just an aura-blocker, Eden!” Maya choked out, taking a slow, shaky breath as she forced her trembling hands to drop into her lap. “My mother bought it so I wouldn't faint when the high-tier Alphas drop their command pressure in the arena.”I stared at her, my hand holding steady on the hilt of my dagger. The metallic seams and glowing runes on that cylinder were far too complex for a standard charm. It was a lie.The heavy arena bell tolled its final warning outside, vibrating through the stone walls.I stepped back, letting my blade slide half an inch into its sheath. “Keep it tucked away, Maya. If that device turns on me, I'll slip my blade through your ribs before you even know what's going on. Don't make me hurt you.”she swallowed hard, zipping her kit bag shut and sliding the strap over the shoulder without another word.We turned and stepped into the shadow archway leading to the arena floor, waiting behind the heavy iron gate,Bright sunlight spilled acro

CHAPTER 22EDEN The two heavy iron guards froze, their steel blades hovering inches from my throat. High up on the royal dais, Crown Prince Kalen raised a single hand, silencing the arena with one casual gesture, and the guards brought down their swords immediately.Shocked whispers rippled through the stands and across the Elite seats high up in the stadium.Prince Kalen leaned over the golden railings, his bright blue eyes locking down onto me. “Why do you walk into a field where you can lose your life? Do you seek death, or are you simply foolish, Slave?”Every high-tier gaze in the stadium weighed down on my shoulders –including Princess Rhaeny's sharp, dangerous glare and Jaxon's white-knuckled silence on the balcony above. I held my posture straight, keeping my chin high. “I seek victory for Thomas Pack, Your Highness,” I said, my voice echoing across the quiet sand. “I am an adopted ward, but my blood belongs to this arena. I came to earn my badge as a commoner and the adop

CHAPTER 21EDENMorning Broke cold and grey over the arena staging grounds.The slaves who were going to join the competition had already been woken up earlier and we were prepped with survival speeches.I stood in the cold long path of the assembly archway, my jaw set, my body coiled tight. I haven't slept a minute since last night and the thoughts of the words I said to Killian weighed heavily on my mind.The cold weight of my folded sponsorship paper pressed against my ribs, hidden inside my shirt, I looked up toward the elevated Elite Station overlooking the stadium Jaxon and Asher sat near the front rail.Killian was nowhere in sight. Jaxon's jaw was white-tight, his eyes locked on the staging floor. Asher sat motionless beside him, his hands resting flat against the stone railing.“Look at the screen, Eden,” Maya whispered, stepping beside me in the prep line. “Vance looks like he's about to kill everyone here and Asher hasn't blinked in five minutes, I thought he was a statue
