Barbara’s pov

By the time I got back to the dorm, my entire body ached from all the vigorous and rigorous exercise and workouts Tristan had made me go through.

It was not the normal kind of ache and definitely wasn’t the soft, dull soreness that comes after a long day.

This time around, it was deeper and sharper like my muscles had been pushed past their limits and were now quietly protesting every movement I made.

I dropped my bag on the floor and shut the door behind me with my foot, lett

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   Things Left Unsaid

    Barbara’s povI didn’t remember how I got back to the dorm.One minute, I had been standing outside the cafeteria staring at my phone while the video played in front of half the academy, and the next minute, I was running.I was running past students, past classrooms, past people whispering behind their hands and past people who suddenly knew something intimate about me that I had never intended to share.My chest hurt, my throat burned and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t stop hearing those whispers.“That’s Barbara?” I kept hearing people mutter as I ran.“She is with Tristan?” Another one said.“He chose her out of all the girls in this school?” Another one said.“What about Cheryl?” Another one said.“Didn’t he used to hate her? What changed?” Another one spat.“That video is so insane. I didn’t even know she was that skilled.” Another one muttered as I ran past her without even thinking of turning to check who it was.I pushed open the dormitory door and practically stumble

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   The Video

    Barbara’s povThe tension in my chest didn’t fully disappear even after Cheryl left.It lingered there quietly while Tristan and I stood in the middle of the courtyard watching her walk away like a storm that promised to come back worse.For a few seconds, neither of us spoke.I think both of us were trying to process what had just happened or maybe recover from it.Honestly, I wasn’t even sure anymore.One moment I had been getting ready for what I thought was a simple lunch date.The next moment Cheryl was standing in front of me talking about Tristan like I was stealing something that belonged to her.And maybe that was the worst part because despite everything, a small guilty part of me still wondered if she was right.“You’re thinking too loudly again.” He said.I blinked and looked up.Tristan stood beside me with his hands inside his pockets, watching me carefully. “You can hear thoughts now?” I demanded.“No,” he said calmly. “But your face gives you away.”“That’s rude.”“It

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   Barbara

    Tristan povMy pulse spiked instantly because I’d texted Barbara earlier.I had told her to meet me at the courtyard.If Cheryl had my phone, then she knew exactly where Barbara would be.“Shit.”Professor Hale looked confused. “Tristan, is there something wrong?”But I was already moving too fast.I rushed out of the classroom and straight down the hallway.Students stared as I passed them.Some moved aside immediately and others whispered.I ignored all of them because now the terrible feeling in my chest finally made sense.This wasn’t about the phone.It was about Barbara, Cheryl had planned this and if she cornered Barbara alone…Who knows what she’d say to her or even worse.I pushed harder through the crowd outside, barely slowing down as I crossed campus toward the courtyard.Every ugly possibility kept replaying in my head.Cheryl exposing the video, threatening Barbara again, manipulating her and humiliating her.And honestly?The thought of Barbara standing there alone deal

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   The Missing Phone

    Tristan’s povSomething felt wrong the second I left the dorm.At first, I ignored it.I thought maybe it was just nerves which was ridiculous already because I did not get nervous.Not before fights, not before exams and definitely not before meetings with my father.So there was absolutely no reason I should be nervous over lunch with Barbara.Yet there I was, walking across campus with my heartbeat acting strangely and my thoughts completely scattered.I felt a bit pathetic which was unlike me.Geoffrey would never let me hear the end of it if he knew.Actually, both of them would especially Jeremiah.I could already hear his annoying voice in my head. “You are so whipped, brother.” I scoffed quietly to myself and shoved my hands deeper into my pockets while continuing toward the café district near the courtyard.The weather was nice for once.There was cool breeze, cloudy skies and some of the students everywhere laughing and walking around like they didn’t have assignments threa

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   The Wrong Person

    Barbara’s povThe second Tristan disappeared down the hallway after class, my heart started acting stupid again.I think it has completely gone stupid now, and it feels so dangerous being stupid than being mad at him. I stood outside the classroom for a few extra seconds pretending to adjust my bag while internally trying to calm myself down.“Lunch. It is literally just lunch, barbar. Why are you so excited about it?” I pondered.People ate together every day without acting like their entire world was shifting off its axis.So why did this feel so terrifying?I hated the answer immediately because it mattered and that was exactly the problem I had with it.Somewhere between the training sessions, arguments, stolen kisses, sarcastic remarks, and late-night conversations, Tristan had somehow become important to me.And honestly?I didn’t know when that happened or how or even why?But now I was standing in the middle of a crowded hallway trying not to smile like an idiot because he as

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   None Of Your Business

    Tristan’s povThe entire class felt unbearably long.It was not because the lecture was difficult, and also wasn’t because Professor Hale was droning on about ancient territorial laws for nearly two straight hours.The main reason was because Barbara sat three rows ahead of me, and for the first time in my life, I couldn’t focus on anything else.It was ridiculous.I’d survived years of academy training, brutal combat sessions, political dinners, impossible expectations from my father, and Cheryl practically stalking me since childhood.Yet somehow, one girl agreeing to eat lunch with me had me distracted like an idiot.I hated that realization, especially because Geoffrey noticed immediately.Of course he did, that idiot noticed everything.“You’re smiling again,” he whispered from beside me.I didn’t even look at him. “I’m not.”“You literally are.” He pressed.“No.” I said.“Yes.”I sighed sharply. “Do you ever shut up?”“Sometimes.”“When?”“When I’m asleep.” He rolled his eyes an

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   Trapped Feelings

    Barbara’s povThe moment the bathroom door clicked shut behind Tristan, I finally allowed myself to breathe. Not fully and freely but just enough to remind myself that I was still alive.My fingers curled tightly at my sides as I stood in the middle of his room, unsure of what to do with myself. E

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   Mate

    Barbara's Pov Tristan's grip tightened around my throat but not enough to choke me, just enough to remind me he could.The cold brick wall pressed against my back as his gray eyes burned into me. Up close, they were even more terrifying like storm clouds about to break.“Barbara BlueMoon,” he repe

    Barbara's Pov“What’s your name?” I asked my new friend.“Lily.” She smiled.“That's a pretty name. I'm Barbara.” Then I leaned in to whisper. “I contemplated changing my name to something else so students won't call me Barbara."Lily chirped a little laughter. “Brabara is a funny name but I prefer

  • Claimed By The Three Alpha Princes   Outcast Among Wolves

    Barbara's PovThe students clustered together in circles too tight for a newcomer to enter, their eyes dark and quick as they darted over me.It was as though they could see down into the panicked fluttering of my heart. To me, it seemed that they all looked alike, not in any obvious way but in the
