Chapter TenLyra's POV"What do you mean 'protect me from your father'?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.Damon and Damian exchanged another silent glance. The tension in the room was palpable, pressing down on my chest until it was hard to breathe."Power like yours," Damon said finally, "isn't something that stays hidden for long. People will want to use it—control it."I swallowed hard, the weight of their words sinking in. "I don't understand what's happening to me."Alpha Dominic burst into the room before either twin could respond, his eyes blazing with a mixture of fury and fascination as they landed on me."How long have you known about this?" he demanded, striding toward the bed.I shrank back instinctively, my heart hammering against my ribs. "Known about what?""Don't play games with me, girl!" His voice reverberated through the room. "Power like that doesn't come from nowhere. What are you hiding?"Backed into a corner, with three pairs of eyes drilling into me, I
Chapter NineLyra's POVThe moon cast long shadows across the abandoned training field as I focused on the boulder before me. My breath came in shallow gasps, sweat beading on my forehead as I concentrated harder than I ever had before. The stone—larger than anything I'd attempted to move—trembled, then slowly lifted an inch off the ground.I'd been practicing every night for weeks, pushing my abilities further each time. What had started with small pebbles had progressed to rocks, then larger stones, and now this. My muscles shook from the strain, but I held the boulder suspended, feeling a strange thrill of power course through my veins.I lowered it gently back to the ground, collapsing onto my knees in exhaustion. This power—whatever it was—grew stronger every day. The woman in my dream had said it came from my bloodline, but I still couldn't make sense of it all. Who was I really?Morning came too quickly, and with it, another brutal training session. My limbs felt heavy as I dra
The revelation I stood face to with a very beautiful woman in white flowing gown. Her hair was also long and white."Who are you?" I asked her scared."I am someone who is here to help you and I know that you must have a lot of questions but you must be strong Lyra." She said.I looked at her confused about what she was talking about."What do you mean?" I asked her."Your gift as as a result of your bloodline. You are the last descendant of a lost and forgotten bloodline in the werewolf world and you were mated to the twin Alphas for a reason so don't give up." The figure said."What do you mean do not give up, what's going to happen? What reason?" I asked but instead she smiled and left.I woke up with a start and drenched in sweat. What was that dream all about? Still there was no one I could talk to so I kept it to myself.One day, during a particularly harsh training session, everything came crashing down.I was running through drills, my body sluggish and uncooperative. The ins
The first day of training was worse than I ever imagined. The cold morning air bit at my skin as I pushed myself through the drills, each movement more painful than the last. Every muscle in my body screamed for relief, but I couldn’t stop. Alpha Dominic had made it clear—I had no choice. I had to prove that I could be an Alpha’s mate, even if every fiber of my being felt like I didn’t belong."Again!" the instructor barked, his voice harsh.I gritted my teeth, forcing my bruised legs to move. Sweat dripped down my face, stinging my eyes, but I blinked it away, trying to stay focused. My lungs burned with each breath, and the weight of exhaustion pressed down on me, but I refused to give up. Not yet.But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t keep up with the others. They moved with precision, their bodies strong and agile. I was slow, clumsy—an easy target for ridicule."Look at her," Vivian’s voice cut through the air, sharp and cruel. She stood at the edge of the training field
The next day, Alpha Dominic and the Luna called Alpha Damon, Damian and Kyle and me to have a conversation with us. "After much deliberation, I have decided that Alpha Kyle cannot claim Lyra because she already has being mated to Damon and Damian." Alpha Dominic said. "Unbelievable! They already rejected her because she is a weak Omega, why can't I take her since I already accepted her! This is partiality!" Kyle thundered. "We met her before you and even if we rejected her, she is still our pack member and we decide if she goes with you or not." Alpha Damon said. "Enough, since neither of you want to let her go, why don't we ask her to choose." The Luna said. "Fine!" They all agreed and all eyes turned to me. I wished the ground could open and swallow me, I was not used to such scrutiny. "Lyra, tell us, who do you choose as your mate among the three of them?" Alpha Dominic asked. I was confused as I did not know what to choose. Damien and Damon had already rejected me
The room was filled with tension, the type that made it hard to breathe. I stood off to the side, feeling small and insignificant as Kyle, Damon, and Damian faced off in the middle of the room.My heart pounded in my chest, the sound of it loud in my ears. Kyle’s voice was a low growl, his eyes burning with frustration."I’ve made it clear," Kyle said, his tone deadly calm, "Lyra is my mate, and I’m taking her with me."The words sent a shiver down my spine, and I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to suppress the unease that twisted in my stomach. The pull between Kyle and me was undeniable, but that didn’t make this any easier to understand. My legs felt weak, like they might give way any second, but I stood my ground, my gaze flicking between the three of them.Damon and Damian stood in front of me, like twin walls of stone. Their expressions were grim, muscles taut with barely contained anger."You’re not taking her," Damian said, his voice cold and sharp. He stepped forward
I could not understand what was happening. One minute I was rejected by my mates and the next minute I was getting another one?"I don't understand Alpha Kyle, I already had two mates." I told him."And who are they?" He asked with sparks in his eyes."Alpha Damon and Damien." I said."And they have claimed you already?" He asked."No, they rejected me." I said and bowed my head in shame.Alpha Kyle’s dark eyes didn’t waver. His lips curved slightly, not into a smile, but something harder, sharper. "Good because now they no longer matter." His voice was low, confident, and it sent a shiver down my spine. "What matters is that my wolf feels the bond. It’s stronger than anything."His certainty made my head spin. How could he be so sure? Everything felt wrong—how could I belong to three Alphas? It didn’t make sense. Nothing made sense. "But I can’t be…" I began, but the words faltered, my voice trembling. I felt so small, standing in front of him, my thoughts a chaotic jumble. "Ho
Morning arrived with a dull, overcast sky, casting a cold light over the packhouse. I moved through the corridors, numb, the pain of last night sitting heavy in my chest. My mind replayed every moment of Alpha Damon and Damien cruel rejection.I had cried all through the night but I woke up with a resolve to let go of everything.As I passed by the Alpha’s office, I heard voices. Damon and Damian’s. My steps faltered, and I pressed myself against the wall, listening even though I knew I shouldn’t."So tell me sons, what happened last night, did you find your mate yesterday?" I heard their father ask them."Nothing happened last night," Damon’s voice was casual, almost indifferent. "No, we didn't find our mates.""None," Damian added, his tone flat, emotionless.A sharp pain shot through my chest, and I bit down on my lip to stifle the cry that threatened to escape. They were denying it. Denying me . The bond I had felt, the pull that had shaken me to my core—it meant nothing to t
I barely made it out of the ballroom when Alpha Damian caught up to me. I didn't even know that he had followed me"Stop!" He shouted and my legs ceased to move.I turned back to face him and I saw Alpha Damon coming from a distance.I didn't understand why he was also here.I was cornered, heart pounding so hard I thought it might burst from my chest. Damian reached me first, his hand gripping my arm with a strength that made me wince."Why are you running?" He demanded.His touch sent a jolt through my body, a sensation so foreign and powerful I couldn’t comprehend it. How could I answer him? How could I stay?How could I—an Omega—be his mate?I blinked up at him, my lips parting as if I could force the words out, but nothing came. My speech disorder always got worse in moments like this. The words I wanted to stay tangled up in my throat, choking me, and I could barely breathe, let alone speak.Before I could process what was happening, Damon arrived. He stormed toward us, his
