Alpha Nyxion's POV

"Hey...hey, it's not my fault your meals are the absolute best," I said, raising my hands in surrender.

"Yeah we'll keep your growls to yourself. Some people are approaching a hundred and twenty next month, and would not like a heart attack," She grumbled, returning to turn the stew in the pot.

I sat on the stool in the middle of the kitchen and watched her work. Avery was more like a second mother to me and my brothers, and we never made her feel any less. She was also the only one Varek listened to whenever he threw his tantrums.

Our mother's death was something no one could ever explain to us, and after years and years of searching, I just concluded that we would never be able to understand what happened to her. Even father couldn't give us a valid explanation, until he died too.

"Quit sulking and taste the broth. I want to add the rootherbs in it," Avery said, snapping me out of my thoughts. She held the long wooden spoon in her hand, with broth steaming from

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    The Things I Can't Ignore.

    Nyxion I still hated how slow my body felt. A week had passed since the council room mess, but the damn poison still had its claws in me. The healers called it “steady recovery.” I called it pathetic. I could walk, talk, even lift my sword for a few minutes before my muscles started trembling like a pup in the snow. Every time I tried to train, my body reminded me it wasn’t mine to command yet. I’d take a few swings, feel the fire in my arms turn to water, and have to stop before my pride cracked in front of whoever was watching. It wasn’t the kind of weakness I was used to. Pain I could handle, fatigue I could push through, but this was slow, stubborn—like it enjoyed mocking me. It made me feel caged inside my own skin. Aerila hadn’t spoken to me much since that day. She hadn’t stormed into my room demanding answers. She hadn’t given me her icy, cutting glares. She just… stayed away. Which should have been a relief. It wasn’t. Not because I missed her—at least, that’s what I

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    You Are Distracted.

    Naeris's POV The moment the council room doors shut behind me, I let out the breath I’d been holding. My palms were still warm from gripping my skirt too tightly, my chest tight from Varek’s smug “good girl,” and Nyxion’s unreadable golden eyes. I kept walking, my boots clicking against the polished stone floor, telling myself I wasn’t running away. I just needed air. “Going somewhere without me?” The voice was lazy, smooth, and already smiling before I even turned my head. Aeron was leaning against the corridor wall, hands shoved in his pockets, as if he’d been waiting there for hours. His dark hair was perfectly messy, the kind of mess that looked like it had been done on purpose. “I thought you were in there,” I said, keeping my voice neutral. “I was,” he said, pushing off the wall and falling into step beside me. “But then I saw you leave, and I thought—why sit in there talking war strategies when I could follow you?” I rolled my eyes. “You’re supposed to be helping them.

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    An ambush.

    Naeris's POV I held her hand midair, forcing my wolf back down with every ounce of restraint I could muster. I shut my eyes and took a deep breath, tossing her hand to the side where it belonged. Then I stared her straight in the eye. “I have done nothing to warrant your violence, and I would appreciate it if you stayed within your boundaries, just as I have been.” The room was silent. I could feel all three alpha triplets' eyes on me, and instead of feeling nervous or jittery, I actually felt….excited. No, that was my wolf. She was already going haywire. A fleeting expression passed Aerila’s face. She narrowed her eyes, gritting her teeth loudly. Then, she laughed. It wasn’t a normal laugh. It was the kind that sounded maniacal, like she would let me go now and strangle me in my sleep. Without warning, she pointed a finger at me, her sharp nails catching the light in the room. “You have just begun what you can’t finish, peasant,” she spat. I cocked my head an

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    Don't You Fucking Dare!

    Nyxion's POV A week. That’s how long it took to stand without feeling like my legs were made of stone. The poison had left my muscles stiff, my chest sore, but I’d be damned if I stayed in bed another day. I was Alpha, not some fragile old wolf waiting for the end. So yes, I pushed myself out of bed and started my duty before mutiny happened. The council room smelled of parchment, ink, and the faint musk of wolves who’d been in meetings too long. Varek stood near the far table, leaning over the map of Talon’s territory. Aeron was on his right, arms crossed, his jaw locked in that way that told me he was either uninterested in what was going on here, or just tired. Draven, of course, looked the same as always; unreadable yet slightly intrigued. “We’ve discussed this before. I don’t get why we’re still at it. We hit from the middle,” Varek said, tapping a spot on the map with his finger. “It’s their weakest point. The flanks are guarded, but the center—” “—is a chokehold,”

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    Draven.

    NAERIS I didn’t realize how fast I was walking until I nearly slammed into one of the castle guards turning the corner. “Sorry,” I murmured quickly, ducking my head and picking up my pace. My hands were trembling. My heart hadn’t settled since I left the room. Nyxion. He looked like death had brushed its lips against his mouth and only barely let him go. And yet… he still looked at me like he could burn me alive with just a glance. I needed air. I needed to get far away from whatever I felt brewing in that room. The silence had been unbearable. The way Aerila held him was like she was clinging to the last breath in her lungs. And the way he— I blinked hard. No. I wouldn’t think about the way his eyes had softened when he saw me. That wasn’t mine to hold onto. I shoved open the back doors leading out to the east garden. The moment I stepped out into the evening breeze, my lungs expanded. Flowers I couldn’t name drooped lazily in the dying light, their perfume soft and heady.

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    What She Doesn’t Know

    Nyxion's POV The room fell heavily silent after she left. Avery, Varek, and Aerila were still in the room, all staring at me with concerned eyes. “I’m alive. You guys can rest easy now,” I muttered. I felt a bit too uncomfortable with how they were paying all their attention to me. Aerila still had her hands wrapped around my head, cradling me like I was an egg about to crack. “We need to find out what this stupid poison is. I can’t lose you, Nyxion,” she whispered brokenly, running her slender fingers through my hair. For a second, I allowed myself to lean into it. For another, I wanted to forget about her. And for the third, I realized I couldn’t, and this was pointless. The hallucinations I had seen were strange, but not abnormal. What I didn’t understand was why they looked similar to Naeris. Or was it my wolf being annoyed that I refused to reach out to her? I couldn’t tell. But the second it seemed like I saw her in the room, I pushed myself to get up. She didn’t acc
