Selena's POV

The morning came gray and still. Fog clung to the trees like a ghost refusing to leave. I woke on the old couch in the corner of the cabin, my back aching and my mind already spinning. Magnus had left without another word, and I hadn’t slept well since. I didn’t trust him. But I needed him. That was the difference between being desperate and being foolish.

I pulled on my coat and stepped outside, the cold air biting my face. The forest was quiet. Too quiet. My breath came in short puffs, and I listened for any sign of life. Nothing. No birds. No wind. It felt like the world was holding its breath, waiting.

Inside, I started a small fire and boiled water in an old kettle I found buried in a cupboard. The cabin had been abandoned for years, but it still held traces of a life long gone—dusty books, broken furniture, a cracked photograph of a family I didn’t know. This place had stories, like me. Forgotten stories.

As I sipped the hot water, the bitterness reminded me of the

    Selena's POVA week passed.The days were quiet now, but it wasn’t peace—it was silence before the storm. Anastasia had been exiled. Not killed, not locked up, just sent away. Banished, like I had been. It should’ve been enough.But it wasn’t.I walked through the village again, my hood pulled low, eyes alert. Whispers followed me wherever I went. Some still didn’t trust me. Others looked at me like I was some sort of tragic hero. The girl who took the fall for her maid. Who forgave her father. Who came back stronger. I let them think what they wanted. Let them believe what they needed.I was back. That’s all that mattered.I avoided Ivy for the first few days. Not out of fear, but because I didn’t want to rush. Revenge isn’t loud and messy. It’s slow. Quiet. Like poison in water.But on the seventh day, we crossed paths.She was outside the healer’s tent, gathering herbs in a woven basket. Her hands trembled as she moved. She looked tired. Pale. Haunted.Good.I slowed my steps just

    Ivy’s POVThe air outside was thick with frost, but the chill that clung to my skin wasn’t from the cold. It came from the truth still settling into my bones—someone wanted me gone. And they were willing to go far enough to poison one of the most powerful women in the pack to make it happen. Or maybe Selena had gone that far herself. The line between victim and villain was so blurred now, I didn’t know what to believe.I sat cross-legged on the window seat of Kiernan’s quarters, my wrist still wrapped tightly. The healer finally came and left, murmuring instructions to rest, to stay calm. As if calm was even possible anymore.Kiernan hadn’t said much since we left the Alpha’s study. He stood near the door, arms crossed over his chest, his gray eyes focused on the hallway as if expecting trouble to walk right in.The silence stretched between us, heavy but not uncomfortable. It was strange, how his presence made me feel more secure than anyone else ever had in this place.“You’re still

    Ronan’s POVThe training grounds were nearly empty. Just a few warriors still practicing as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the dirt. My knuckles were bruised, my shirt clung to my back with sweat, and my muscles burned with exhaustion. Still, it wasn’t enough to clear my head. I landed one more punch into the training dummy, watching the way it swayed from the force."That thing didn’t insult you, brother."I didn’t have to turn to know it was Elias. His voice always carried that edge of sarcasm that grated on my nerves."I needed to hit something."He walked closer, tossing me a water bottle. I caught it without a word."You’ve been out here for hours. Trying to forget about her?"I didn’t respond.Elias exhaled and leaned against the fence, his blue eyes watching me carefully. "She’s still under Kiernan’s watch. The Alpha hasn’t made a public decision yet.""He will," I said. "He’s just waiting to see which way the wind blows."Elias was quiet for a mo

    Ronan’s POVThe training grounds were nearly empty when I arrived. Just the dull thud of fists meeting sandbags and the occasional shout from warriors sparring in the distance. The cold wind bit at my skin, but I welcomed the sting. It kept me grounded. Focused.I needed to be focused.My brothers didn’t know I’d come here alone. Elias was probably off somewhere brooding like always. Kiernan… well, he had his own reasons for hiding things. But me? I had no excuse.I tightened the wraps around my knuckles and threw a punch at the practice dummy. Again. And again. Harder each time until the sound of flesh meeting leather drowned out the thoughts in my head.Ivy.Her name had burrowed deep under my skin since the moment our bond had awakened—and I’d rejected it.Foolish.The moment I looked into those eyes of hers, soft hazel that turned silver when she was angry or afraid, something inside me cracked. But I did what I was trained to do. I crushed it. Shut her out. Denied what the moon g

    Ivy’s POVThe morning came slowly, dragging a pale gray light through the thick clouds outside the window. I hadn’t slept. My body was tired, but my mind had stayed wide awake, thoughts turning over again and again. Everything felt too loud inside my head—Ronan’s words, Kiernan’s silence, Selena’s lies.I sat curled on the edge of the bed, knees pulled to my chest, a blanket wrapped tightly around me. The air was cold, and the fire in the hearth had died sometime during the night. Still, I didn’t move to relight it. I just watched the flames that weren’t there.I didn’t know what time it was when the door opened softly. Kiernan stepped in without saying a word. He looked like he had been up all night too. His shirt was wrinkled, and his hair was messier than usual.He walked over and placed something on the small table. A bowl of soup. Warm bread. A cup of tea."You should eat," he said, voice quiet.I nodded, though I didn’t move.Kiernan walked to the window, arms crossed as he star

    IVY'S POVThe morning light crept through the thin curtains like a quiet whisper. I sat up slowly, my muscles sore from another night of restless sleep. Kiernan hadn’t said much since the meeting with the Alpha. He stayed close though—always nearby, always watching. It was strange having someone care, even a little. I wasn’t used to it.The events of the last few days swirled in my mind like a storm. Selena poisoned. A forged letter. A trap meant for me. The pack still watched me like I was dangerous, like I might snap any second. But now they whispered behind their hands instead of shouting in my face. That was progress, I guessed.I sat by the window with a piece of bread in my hands, chewing slowly. I wasn’t hungry. Food tasted like ash when you didn’t know who wanted you dead.Kiernan sat in the corner, arms crossed, eyes trained on the door. He hadn’t slept either. I could see the tired lines under his eyes."You don’t have to babysit me all day," I said quietly.He didn’t move.

    Selena's POVThe first thing I felt was cold.It crept under my skin like icy fingers, stiffening my limbs, wrapping around my lungs. I opened my eyes slowly. My body was weak, heavy like stone. Every breath hurt. Every blink sent a throb through my head. But I was alive. That meant my plan hadn’t gone completely wrong.The ceiling above me was unfamiliar. Wooden beams, old and cracked. Not the luxurious ceiling of my father’s home or the healer’s hut in the center of the pack grounds. This was a side room, one of the less important healing chambers. Hidden, quiet, empty.I moved slightly and regretted it. My side ached, and my mouth tasted of metal and dirt. Poison, I realized. The bellroot worked faster than expected.I had used only a small dose. Just enough to scare them. Just enough to make me look like the victim. Just enough to make Ivy look guilty.Ivy.Her name flared inside my mind like fire. I hated her more than anyone. Her presence, her voice, her soft eyes that fooled ev

    Selena's pov.I studied her for a moment. She wasn’t like the others. She didn’t look at me with fear or awe. She seemed almost... curious. That could be useful."Yes," I said, my voice soft but firm. "Tell me about the Alpha’s mate. Ivy."The maid hesitated. Her eyes flickered nervously, but she answered.“She’s... quiet. Very quiet. Keeps to herself, mostly. The others in the pack don’t know much about her. Only what they’ve been told.” She paused, as if considering how much to say. “Some say she has a... connection with the Moon Goddess. Like she’s touched by her somehow. That’s why she’s so... special.”I grimaced, the bitter taste of jealousy rising in my throat. The Moon Goddess had nothing to do with it. Ivy was nothing but a weak, pitiful Omega playing at being the Alpha’s mate."Do you know how she got here? How she met the Alpha?"The maid looked uncomfortable. "No one knows for sure, my lady. There are rumors. Some say she was found... wandering the forest. Alone. Others sa

    Ivy’s POV,It was cold that morning, the kind of chill that settled into your bones no matter how many layers you wore. I stood by the window in my room, watching the frost creep slowly along the edge of the glass. The world outside was still and gray, mist coiling low over the hills like a breath held in a lung too long. I wrapped the blanket tighter around my shoulders and tried not to think about the silence pressing in from all sides.Kiernan had left before sunrise. He didn’t say much—he never did—but his eyes had lingered too long on my face. Like he wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words.Or maybe he didn’t want to.Either way, he was gone.And I was alone again.It felt like everything was shifting. Every step I took felt watched. Every word I said was weighed and measured. The pack pretended to smile, to accept me, but their eyes still held that edge. Suspicion. Fear.I was the outsider. The cursed girl. The one they whispered about when they thought I couldn’t h

    IVY’s pov,I kept my eyes on the fire, letting its low crackle fill the silence in my head. It was late. Everyone else had already gone inside, but I couldn’t sleep. Not with the way my thoughts kept spinning, nor with the way my heart kept pulling in three different directions.I’d told Ronan I loved him. And I meant it. But love didn’t stop the ache in my chest when I thought of Elias. Or the steady calm Kiernan gave me, like a lighthouse in the storm.I didn’t know how to love them all. I didn’t know how to stop either.The sound of footsteps made me turn. I expected Kiernan. Maybe even Elias. But it was Ronan again, a blanket over one shoulder, two mugs in his hands.“You left without tea,” he said, sitting beside me.“I didn’t want to wake you.”“You didn’t.” He handed me a mug. The scent of chamomile drifted up, soft and familiar.We sat in silence for a while. The kind that stretched, but didn’t hurt, not with Ronan. With him, quiet was easy.“I don’t regret last night,” I said

    Ronan’s Pov,The wind had a bite to it that morning, a sharp edge curling around the keep's corners and slipping under collars. I stood in the training yard, arms folded, watching the younger wolves run drills. They were too fast, forgetting the importance of patience, of reading your opponent before striking. I should’ve corrected them. But I didn’t.Ivy hadn’t come down yet. I told myself I wasn’t waiting for her, but that was a lie, and I no longer believed it.The dream from nights ago still haunted me. Not the image of her in the storm—that had faded—but the way she called my name. Not with love. With fear. With anger. It had etched itself into me, deeper than any scar.When I finally saw her, it was like the air shifted. She wore that heavy coat again, with the fur lining that brushed her jaw when she walked. Her hair was braided to one side, simple and loose. But her eyes—gods, her eyes—held something that made my heart stutter. Determination. And something else. Sadness maybe.

  • Bullied By My Alpha Triplets   Chapter 71

    Ronan’s POV,I left Ivy in the garden with her hair tangled by the wind and her eyes turned toward the stars. She didn’t say much after resting her head on my shoulder. She didn’t need to. There was a quiet peace to her that I hadn’t seen in days. Maybe weeks. And I’d take whatever pieces of calm she could find in this place.I couldn’t sleep again. Not that I expected to.I tried. I lay there, staring at the cracks in the ceiling, listening to the sound of my breath. But every time I closed my eyes; I saw her face. Not the peaceful one from the garden—but the one from the dream. Wild. Afraid. Calling for me in the storm.So I got up, dressed in silence, and walked until my feet led me somewhere new.The eastern edge of the territory was quiet this time of night. Cold, even though spring had started to thaw the ground. The moon hung low, half-shrouded in clouds. The air smelled of frost and pine. And I walked.It wasn’t the kind of walk that had a destination. It was the kind that hel

    Ronan's pov.The sky was painted in dusky gold when I stepped out onto the back terrace. The garden below glistened with dew that hadn't burned off from the morning. It had rained just before dawn, leaving everything soft and damp. The air smelled like pine and wet stone. And something sweeter—like a promise just waiting to be broken.Ivy was already there. Barefoot, in an oversized shirt that didn’t belong to her. I knew because it was mine. I’d left it in her room last night, folded neatly at the foot of her bed before I slipped out just before the servants stirred.She didn’t say anything when she saw me. Just looked. Like she was memorizing something small and quiet. Like she needed to carry it with her a little while longer.“You’re up early,” I said, softening my voice.“I didn’t sleep.” Her words were low, brushed with something heavy. Not sadness. Just tired.I moved to her side, close but not touching. Not yet.“You okay?”She hesitated. “I keep asking myself that too.”I nod

    Ronan’s Pov,I stood by the window longer than I meant to. The sun was already past the ridge, bleeding color across the trees like spilled wine. Ivy’s scent still lingered on my shirt, soft and warm like wild violets crushed in the heat. I hadn’t changed. I hadn’t moved. My hand was still tingling from where she held it last night, curled beside me like something fragile and breakable.I knew I shouldn’t let it get to me.But it already had.I didn’t hear the knock until it came again, louder this time. I turned away from the window and opened the door to find Kiernan leaning in the frame like he owned it. He didn’t smile. Just looked at me, slow and quiet.“We need to talk,” he said.I stepped back and let him in.Kiernan paced once, twice, then turned on me. “What are we doing?”The question was short, blunt, sharp enough to cut bone.I didn’t answer right away. He crossed his arms, waiting.“I don’t know,” I said truthfully.“She was with you last night.”It wasn’t a question. It

    Narrator's POV.The morning mist clung low to the ground, curling between the tree trunks like a secret. Ivy stood barefoot in the clearing behind the main house, the grass cold and wet under her toes. She wasn’t sure why she came out here. Maybe to breathe. Maybe to remember what it felt like to be something other than caught.She wrapped her arms around herself and stared up at the grey sky. Everything felt too quiet. As if the whole world was waiting.Behind her, she heard a step. Slow. Careful.“I thought I’d find you here.”Kiernan.She didn’t turn around. She didn’t flinch either. He always moved like a shadow—quiet but strong, like the storm inside him had learned to walk soft.“I couldn’t sleep,” she said.“Me either.”He stopped just beside her, close enough she could feel his heat, but not touching. He never touched unless she let him. That used to frustrate her. Now it felt like kindness.“What’s wrong?” he asked.She didn’t know how to answer that without giving too much a

    Elias’ Pov.I haven’t seen Ivy all day.Not since that moment in the hall. When I passed Ronan and didn’t say a damn word. He didn’t either. But his silence said everything. They’re getting closer. I’m not blind.And it’s killing me.I shouldn’t care. I told myself I’d let her go if that’s what she needed. If it made her happy. But I didn’t mean it. Not really. Not when every breath feels heavier without her near. Not when I can still hear the way she said my name the night she almost kissed me.I’m losing her.I go to the training yard. I hit the dummies until my knuckles bleed. Then I shift and run. Fast. Hard. Until the trees blur and the air burns in my lungs.But I can’t outrun this.Ivy’s in my head. She’s under my skin. She’s every damn heartbeat.By the time I shift back, it’s dark. My clothes are soaked with sweat. My body aches. But it’s not enough.Nothing is.I make my way back to the house and stop at the river trail. I smell her before I see her.Ivy.She’s sitting on a

    Narrator's Pov.The storm rolled in slow, creeping like a secret across the mountains. By mid-morning, the clouds had settled thick over the valley, muffling sound, muting light. Ronan stood at the edge of the training yard, the steady drizzle soaking into his cloak and boots, but he didn’t move.He was waiting.Ivy had said she wanted space. That morning, she'd left early without a word. No note. No goodbye. Just gone. It wasn't like her, not anymore. Not after last night.He had barely slept. Her warmth had lingered on his skin like a ghost. The scent of her hair still clung to his pillow. But when he opened his eyes, she was gone.Now, the absence felt louder than thunder.Footsteps behind him pulled him from his thoughts. Kiernan. Ronan didn’t have to turn to know. The younger twin’s presence always came with quiet tension, like a wire pulled too tight.“She’s at the chapel,” Kiernan said without greeting.Ronan glanced back. “Alone?”Kiernan nodded. “She wouldn’t let me stay.”Th
