Audrey’s POV

The knife was cold as its Pressed against the soft part of my throat where every beat of my pulse slammed up against the steel.

“Don’t move,” the hunter whispered again, but this time…...this time he said my name.

“Audrey.”

He wasn’t barked, and wasn’t snarling, he just called my name gently, akin to a secret that someone may whisper into my hair at night. It wasn't simply the knife's menace that made my entire body tremble.

Adrian stopped in place, and his claws half-formed, half-retreating, his chest still wet with blood. His entire body tensed up like a fraying wire.

"How on earth did you find out her name?"

The hunter tilted his head and came closer, drawing me into his body, and I felt the leather of his mask scrape my cheek, but it wasn’t painful.

“Because she’s not just yours.”

My stomach dropped.

And then the mask came off.

The room seemed to tilt when I saw her face.

Lucia.

Ohh…. This is not a stranger and she is not some nameless killer. I thought as I look

  • Claimed by Three Alphas, Fated to One   Chapter 92 Unwanted Protection

    My stomach drops.I stare at the paper until the words blur. The hallway feels suddenly too empty, and quiet, like the air’s been vacuumed out.Footsteps echo behind me. Caleb’s voice, soft, close. “You okay?”I shove the note into my pocket before I even think. “Yeah. Fine.”He studies me, eyes narrowing. “You’re lying.”“I’m fine, Caleb. Seriously.”He doesn’t believe me. Of course he doesn’t. He reaches out, brushing his thumb against my wrist, though light, but enough to make my breath catch.“You don’t have to face this alone,” he says. “Not anymore.”I almost laugh. “You think any of this looks like I have a choice?”His jaw tightens. “You always have a choice. Even if it kills you.”Before I can answer, Derek appears at the end of the hall, and the look he gives Caleb could set the whole school on fire.“Bell’s about to ring,” Derek says. “She’s with me.”“Funny,” Caleb replies, not moving. “Didn’t realize you owned her.”“Not yet.”The way he says it, with low voice , unfilter

  • Claimed by Three Alphas, Fated to One   Chapter 91 Branded

    Audrey’s POVThe whispers start before I even make it past the parking lot. They rise like smoke—thin, curling, poisonous.“Traitor blood.”“She’s back?”“She actually showed up after that?”I keep walking, chin up, backpack hanging off one shoulder because I refuse to let them see me shrink. The air feels heavier than usual, like the sky itself knows something’s changed, and it has, because the whole damn council session was streamed across the packs last night. My humiliation is a public record now. My bloodline questioned. My mother’s name dragged through dirt that didn’t even belong to her.The worst part? The council didn’t even look at me when they passed judgment. They just nodded, muttered things about “heritage contamination” and “loyalty to the Alpha line.”And now here I am, back in Ravenfalls High like I didn’t just have my entire identity dissected under moonlight and protocol.Someone laughs behind me. Too sharp, too loud. “Guess they let the half-breed back in!”I don’t

  • Claimed by Three Alphas, Fated to One   Chapter 90  The Blood Oath

    Audrey’s POVThe claws never came for me. Not really. The sound just dragged and dragged, echoing in the dark like it wanted me to choke on my own heartbeat, and then there were torches and voices and a dozen hands dragging me down a hall I didn’t even recognize. By the time I realized where they were taking me, I was standing under the vaulted ceiling of the council chamber, the stone walls sweating with old damp, and every elder in Ravenfalls staring at me like I was already guilty of something.I wanted to scream that this wasn’t fair, that they couldn’t just drag me here after Adrian had blown my whole world apart, but the words stuck in my throat. My wrists still hurt where the guards had grabbed me. My chest felt like it was vibrating from the inside out.Adrian was there already, standing stiff near the front. His eyes found me the second I walked in, wide and frantic, but he didn’t move. He didn’t even blink.Caleb leaned against one of the carved pillars like he wanted to bre

  • Claimed by Three Alphas, Fated to One   Chapter 89 The Family Betrayal

    Audrey’s POVThe shadow at the window was gone before Derek could even reach the glass. He yanked it open, claws still half out, his chest heaving like he’d tear through whoever it was. But there was nothing. Just the cold night air, a branch swaying, the sound of some damn dog barking far down the street.“Nothing,” he muttered, but his shoulders stayed tight, his wolf still pacing under his skin.Nothing. Yeah, sure. That’s what everyone kept saying. Nothing. Like my whole life wasn’t unraveling, like my mom wasn’t suddenly a stranger, like every single person around me wasn’t hiding pieces of a story I wasn’t allowed to have.I couldn’t breathe in that room anymore. My chest felt like it was splitting open, as if I was choking on the lies, on Derek’s words, on Caleb’s face still burned in my brain. I pushed past him and yanked the door open.“Audrey” Derek started, but I didn’t stop. I didn’t care if the whole council was standing out there with claws ready. I just needed air. I ne

  • Claimed by Three Alphas, Fated to One   Chapter 88 Derek’s Discovery

    Derek’s POVI couldn’t sit through another second of hearing Caleb’s voice echo down the damn hallway, his low, calm bullshit about “protecting” Audrey when he’d just admitted he’d known something all along. The look on her face wrecked, like someone had yanked the ground out from under her, was enough to set my chest on fire. I walked away before I snapped his neck.But walking away didn’t help. Running didn’t help. My wolf was clawing at me, whispering that if I couldn’t protect her with my fists then maybe I needed to do it with the truth. And the truth wasn’t gonna come from Caleb, or from Adrian, or from the council.So I ended up in the archives.Every pack had one, even if they pretended they didn’t. Locked in the basement of the old lodge, stacked floor to ceiling with ledgers and dust and the kind of smell that hit the back of your throat like burnt paper. No one came here unless they had to. And nobody “had to” unless the council ordered it, which meant everything in these

  • Claimed by Three Alphas, Fated to One   Chapter 87 Caleb’s Truth

    Audrey’s POVAdrian’s words wouldn’t stop echoing.“If this is real, then your mother wasn’t just a hunter, she was one of them”.It rattled in my chest long after I stormed out of Mrs. Beaumont’s study, letter clutched so hard such that my fingers ached. I should’ve confronted him again. I should’ve screamed until he broke and told me everything. But I couldn’t. My legs carried me somewhere else before my brain caught up.And where I ended up was Caleb's place.He was outside, leaning against the wrecked frame of what used to be the school’s main entrance, blood still streaking down his arm where that wolfsbane arrow had grazed him. He looked like he’d been carved out of stone, steady, controlled, but his jaw was tight like he was grinding down words he wasn’t saying.“Caleb.” My voice cracked. He turned, with eyes flashing gold for a second before softening when he saw me.“Audrey.” He pushed off the wall, reaching for me, but I flinched back before he touched me.His brows furrowed
