Nyxion’s POV

The hall outside Aerila’s chambers was heavy with jasmine before I even reached her door. It seeped from beneath the seams of the carved oak, clinging to the air like a net. Sweet, cloying.

She always made sure her scent arrived before she did.

The corridor was cleared—her order, no doubt. Guards gone. Servants scattered. Privacy for her wasn’t about secrecy; it was about control. The fewer eyes that lingered, the more she could stage whatever performance she wanted.

The door opened before I touched it. Aerila stood in the threshold, framed by golden lamplight. Her gown glittered with stitched pearls, her lips painted the deep red of blood. She smiled as if she’d already won.

“Right on time,” she purred. She was indeed beautiful.

I stepped inside and looked around. The room looked more like a throne hall than a chamber. Dozens of candles flickered in polished silver holders. Roses overflowed from tall crystal vases, their scent battling with her jasmine. A table dressed i

    Aerila's POV“What brings you here, Magnus?” I paid attention to the male servant who had been kneeling for hours.“L-lady Aerila,” He stuttered, his body covered in sweat. “I sincerely apologize if my presence disturbs your-”“Go straight to the point, Magnus,’’ I indifferently waved him off. My attention was drawn to the string injected into my arm. The new Pack's doctor, Eren smiled warmly as he noticed my glance.“I bring news concerning the slave,” He said, pausing to breathe heavily. “Alpha Nyxion and the Council cast their votes half an hour ago, and they have thrown the slave in the dungeon,”My ears perked up at the news and I turned sharply to him, “Really? Are you sure she's in the dungeon?”“Yes, Lady Aerila," His face brightened and his lips stretched into a smile.A twisted smile curled on my lips as joy surged through me. 'Finally! Nyxion discarded that bitch! Now she knows where she truly belongs!'My hands squeezed the armrests as I savored my victory. How I wished to

    Nyxion's POV“A-alpha Nyxion,” Her face went pale as she stared at me, her eyes wide with shock.I stood frozen in place as her words echoed in my head. I never wanted him!She had never once considered me as her mate. Was that why she did it?My hands clenched tightly, squeezing the paper in my hand. My wolf snarled, pacing back and forth in my head while laying words of mockery at me.“Alpha Nyxion.” A cold voice sounded behind me. “ What's with the delay? We already have enough evidence to support the incident. Why are you not issuing the order?”Elder Xavier's words echoed through the hall, and my eyes fell on Naeris. I saw the confusion on her face and I nearly believed she was innocent.However, the crumpled paper in my hand said the complete opposite.“Give me a minute.” My voice sounded hoarse in my ears. “I have to question her to know if the content in the paper is real,”“That's unacceptable, Alpha Nyxion. We made an agreement back in the Council Room to throw the instigato

    Naeris’s POVI laughed, a soft, genuine sound.Aeron shifted until he sat beside me, stroking my hair and telling me about his plans. Apparently, there was this competition coming up, and he wanted to try out.“With all the times you go for training, I think you’ll do pretty well,” I said, brushing my fingers against his arm.He smirked, that same innocent smirk that always got me. “You think? I have a lot of practice wounds.”I chuckled. “Part of the process, isn’t it?”He smiled fully, pulling me into his arms and planting a kiss on my temple. His scent calmed both me and my wolf, even though we both tried to ignore the throbbing pain in my heart.Silence settled over the room for a bit, but a comfortable one that almost made me drift to sleep.He watched me for a long moment before finally breaking the silence. “Naeris.” His tone was gentle, but I heard the steel beneath it. “I’ve been thinking… I don't think you should stay in the pack house with us. It’s not safe for you here.”M

    Naeris's POV“What do you think is going to happen?” Hushed voices echoed in my ears as I slowly regained consciousness. “I don't know. I heard from the foot servant that the Alpha has gone mad. There's no telling what will become of us if it consumes him.” A softer voice whispered, and the sound of water splashing in a bowl filled my ears. I felt a presence beside me, and soon after, something warm was placed on my forehead. A warm cloth.“Tsk, why do we have to be the ones suffering from the clashes? I hate working here,” The first voice snapped, anger visible in her voice. “Shh, Anna.” The softer voice whispered, paused, then continued, “You should be careful with your words else you might get killed.”Anna humped, then said, “Isn’t that what will happen to every worker in the pack one day? What's wrong with speaking my mind?” “Well, I agree with you on that but you still have to be careful,” The girl said. “Fine, I hear you, Gwen,” Anna grumped, paused, then continued, “Who's

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    You Damned Fool!

    Nyxion’s POVThe fire in my heart crackled, but it did nothing to soften the chill in my chest.I had dismissed the servants an hour ago, yet the scent of Aerila’s perfume still clung to me like a reminder. Every time I closed my eyes, I didn’t see her face, or the thin cut on her wrist she’d flaunted as proof of Naeris’s supposed treachery.I saw Naeris instead, her eyes wide, her lips parted as though she wanted to speak but couldn’t. And then the sharp sting in my chest when I’d turned my back on her, letting Aerila’s words cloud my reasoning.A low growl slipped from my throat before I could stop it. My wolf stirred uneasily, pacing inside me.“You damned fool!" He snarled.Clenching my hands, I ignored him. Or at least I tried to.The door opened without a knock, and I snapped my head towards it. A familiar scent wafted through my nostrils, causing my brows to knit tightly. Only one person had the audacity, and it wasn’t my brothers.“Busy thinking again, Alpha?” Draven’s voice c

  • Claimed By The Alpha Triplets    Promise.

    Aeron’s POVNaeris’s tears undid me.I had seen her angry, seen her stubborn, seen her stand tall in front of people who wanted her to shrink.But this shattering was new. Her hands clutched the blanket like it was the only thing keeping her from breaking apart entirely, and the sobs wracked through her chest before she could stop them.Her tears weren’t delicate. They were raw. Ugly. The kind that carved lines down her face and made her breaths hitch sharp enough to hurt.And I hated it, not her, never her, but the world that had driven her to this.I sat on the edge of her bed, not touching her yet.My wolf strained forward, restless, wanting to hold her, to cover her in warmth and strength until she forgot pain existed. But Naeris was proud, and I’d learned the hard way that she didn’t let anyone see her weakness easily. So I waited, let her cry until she needed me.When she finally looked up at me, her eyes were swollen, her lashes clumped with tears. Her voice cracked as she whis
