Lucy's POV

Weeks passed by in a blur. Normalcy returned to Moongrowl and its environs.

After Vladimir's plot met its end at the cliffs, the next thing we had to face was actually freeing the slaves from Bloodbath pack. Shaun was relentless, storming brothels and homes that didn't comply.

I handed over the responsibility of Luna to Rosa, whom I trusted with my heart and my soul. Even in captivity, she had always believed in me, even when things got tough. She deserved to lead. She left along with those who wanted to return to Bloodbath and rebuild, promising to visit whenever time permitted.

Not everyone left, though. Some of the slaves preferred to remain in Moongrowl, picking the established land over one wrought with so much uncertainty. Some explained that they had already found their place in Moongrowl, and expressed trust in me being able to take care of them, while others simply wanted to leave the past behind because reliving the memories would have been too painful for them.

  • Claimed By My Triplet Alpha Stepsons   Chapter 60

    Author's POV13 YEARS AGOIn the dead of the night, not all were asleep. Agatha Blaine rose from her bed, and stepped out of the little home she shared with her young daughter. She had an appointment that she couldn't have missed, unless she wanted to get on the wrong side of a man that should never be crossed.All was quiet in Bloodbath, save for the occasional hooting of an owl and the chittering of mating crickets. There were still a few pack members wandering around in the dark of the evening without a care in the world, but none of them mattered to Agatha as much as the person on her mind whom she had to meet before midnight.Midnight had become their perfect meeting time. After their first meeting had culminated in a desperate sharing of physical pleasure, they had chosen that time because of how perfect it appeared to them. A time where the dark could cover everything else and make it so that they appeared to be the only ones left in the world.Or so, the woman believed.She ti

    Lucy's POVThe next day, Shaun had to leave early to have a brief meeting with his brothers regarding the message he received from the scouts. I should have gone with him, but he assured me that I would get feedback as soon as they were done, and advised me to get some air. I still hadn't told him about my little ‘discussion’ with his aunt, but maybe he didn't need to know about it. Knowing him, he might have taken it even more seriously than I had.After finishing up the breakfast which had been brought up to me, I took a quick bath, did my hair, and put on a fresh set of clean clothes. Gowns had become tiring to me, so I opted for some free pants and a loose flowery top that slipped past my shoulders. After confirming my appearance in the mirror, I exited the room and stepped out. As I went down the long winding hallways of the palace, I couldn't help but remember the conversation I had witnessed between Annabella and the other woman I didn't know. I didn't understand how people co

  • Claimed By My Triplet Alpha Stepsons   Chapter 58

    Lucy's POVFinally alone, I found a little spot in the palace where I could take a seat and just think about the many ways that fate had dealt me a severe bow to the chest. It was exhausting always trying to explain myself, and the more I had to, the more I started to doubt why I should even have cared in the first place. The main thing that kept me moving was the realisation that despite everything, there was still hope for my future.My stomach grumbled, and I finally got up from the little crevicd where I had almost allowed myself to wallow in self-pity. As I did, Annabella appeared in front of me. She appeared to have been on her way to somewhere, with the way her chest gently rose and fell with each breath.Today, her hair was let loose, and it cascaded over her shoulders like a wavy, glossy curtain. Some blood had flowed into her cheeks, making them slightly pale. I remembered then that I didn't even know how her meeting with Scott had gone. Although it might not exactly have

    Lucy's POVA day flew by, and fortunately, the only surviving scout from the attack finally became conscious. We returned to the infirmary, where the smell of death still looked in the air, waiting and watching for whom to snatch up into its claws.The scout was younger than I had imagined—barely even older than myself, with luxurious dark hair that fanned out on the pillow underneath her head. Her skin looked pale, but it was obviously due to the severe wounds she sustained. A thick bandage had been wrapped around her torso, and one of her legs was incomplete from below the knee. She had been staring blankly at the ceiling when we had stepped into her room. Desolation was etched over her small, innocent face.After a moment, she turned to us, and I caught a full glimpse of the tears running across her face. The Luna stepped forward and took the scout's hand in hers, looking apologetic. As though she was the one who had put the scout in such a position in the first place. “. . . L

    Lucy's POV“The Southern border is completely compromised,” Adrianne said, leading us to the infirmary—although I had some doubts as to why corpses would have been taken there, unless it was merely for the sake of investigation. “The rest of our men had to evacuate the area immediately, or risk losing their own lives.”“Good goddess, what is all this madness?” asked the Luna, lifting both hands into the air to lay emphasis on her rhetorical question. “It's been barely a week since we got the first account of suspected rogues roaming the South. Now this?”We made a sharp turn, and had to wait a little for the warrior to open a large set of doors before we could proceed further. The doors led to another hallway, but this one had a distinct look to it.The floors were pristine, and the faint smell of rubbing alcohol filled my nose as we proceeded. People wearing white walked back and forth with hurried steps, while some moved people on small, movable beds into rooms. One woman in partic

  • Claimed By My Triplet Alpha Stepsons   Chapter 55

    Lucy's POVMy first day in Moonstruck Pack went exceedingly well. When night came, we were all shown to our respective rooms to close off the day. Initially, I had been assigned my own separate chambers, but Shaun seemed to think that I might get stolen away by some unknown entity, and smuggled himself into my room.“Can't you stay away from me for just one night, Shaun?” I asked, on the verge of laughter as he acted like one sneaking in, looking over his shoulder as he closed the door to the room.Confident that we were now alone, he stood to his full height. Even in the dark, I could feel his contented smile as it fell on me. “Why should I stay away from my bride-to-be?” he said, slowly walking over to the bed, where I lay. “Because courtesy demands it. It's considered bad practice for a couple to spend the night together before they are wed.”“Hm?” He was on the bed now, gently pressing it down with his weight. I made space for him by moving out of the way, but remained close eno
