LOGINCAN I HAVE A GOODBYE KISS?•••MIRA'S POV•••Every Human-Wolf knows the rule.If the male's rejection fails to break the bond, then the female must reject it instead. And if her rejection fails too... then they are bound to each other until death.Unfortunately for me, my bonded mates weren't just ordinary males.They were Alphas.The Ravencrest triplets.And as if fate hadn't mocked me enough already, I was only a nameless half-blood with no status, no protection, and no one powerful enough to stand beside me.It was pointless to even ask the triplets to keep the bond a secret.What was I even thinking?They would probably be too ashamed to admit that all three of them were tied to someone like me.An outcast.My biggest fear now wasn't even the bond itself.It was the fact that they couldn't fully control it. Sooner or later, people would notice. Especially if one of them entered heat because of me.And when that happened?I was finished.If jealous girls in the academy didn't kill m
WHEN CLARITY COMES WITH A COST•••MIRA'S POV•••I dragged a cold palm down my face, my heart pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of my chest. Even my hands were trembling."I think there's been some kind of mistake," I breathed out slowly."Really?" Kael asked, the corner of his lips curling into a faint smile, like he actually found this amusing."You should be happy. Who wouldn't be happy finding out that three Alphas are bonded to her? The Ravencrests, for that matter." He lifted his chin arrogantly, but I still caught the bitterness buried underneath his tone.Damn. This guy seriously had no sense of timing.I felt irritation twist in my stomach at the way he looked down on me. A part of me wished I had the courage to slap him across the face. I would probably feel so satisfied seeing the imprint of my fingers on those perfect cheeks.He thinks that's what everyone wants.Maybe for others, but not me. I wanted peace more than money, power, or status.What did he eve
NOT WITH THE RAVENCREST BROTHERS•••MIRA'S POV••••I snapped my eyes up at him immediately, hoping he wouldn't curl his lips in disgust at my childish tone, but as usual, Kael's face remained unreadable.I cleared my throat loudly and shrugged my left shoulder."Even though you indirectly arranged for me to get murdered in that fight..." I paused, watching carefully for his reaction.He only lifted a brow at me like I was saying complete nonsense."Yeah," I muttered, nodding slowly. "Even though I almost died in that cage, I'm still grateful for everything you've done for me these past few days. Thank you."I pressed my lips together tightly afterward.Honestly, I didn't even want to look at him while saying that, but his stare was burning holes through me. He stayed silent, studying me like I was some difficult mystery he couldn't solve.The silence stretched longer than expected, and my palms slowly turned sweaty."You're not denying it... and you're not accepting my appreciation ei
SPARKS FROM HIS TOUCHTWO WEEKS LATER •••MIRA'S POV••• Several days and nights had passed without me attending a single class. At this point, I honestly hoped the entire academy didn't think I was dead.Still, I felt relieved that everything involving my fight with Seraphina had finally settled down after all this time.I hated being locked inside this room all day, so I usually begged Kael to let me take short walks in the little garden behind his so-called hidden room.Of course, he always came with me too.He refused to let me out of his sight, even though he knew I wouldn't dare try escaping.Not that I even could.I had once thought about it, but I didn't know my way around this ridiculously huge mansion, and every path from the garden to this room stayed heavily locked anyway.Sometimes I felt like a prisoner with too much comfort and no freedom. Because despite everything... Kael never let me lack anything else.Every morning, afternoon, and night, he asked what I wanted
A DECISION TO KEEP EVERYONE CALM~~KAEL'S POV~~"Will you be able to clear the rumors I heard yesterday during my meeting? The ones saying my sons are fighting over a poor girl?" He crossed one leg over the other again.There's more to this."That nonsense is a disgrace to me. How do you expect me to hold my head high among my associates when rumors are spreading like wildfire that my sons, Alphas I proudly raised, are chasing after a weak half-blood on scholarship?" He kept throwing insults at both my brothers and Mira.Someone has been feeding him information about our movements, and it only started recently.He never cared this much before."She isn't weak. You should've seen the way she defended herself against Seraphina yesterday. And I'm very sure she isn't a half-breed either. Her birth record is sealed. I found out something about her father. She's not an ordinary girl," Lucien said calmly, trying to reason with him.The room fell silent.Damn.Lucien had just poured salt into
RUMORS REACHING THEIR CRUEL FATHER~~~••KAEL'S POV••~~~Alpha Cassian Ravencrest.The sight of him standing at the mansion entrance made me suck in a sharp breath like I had just witnessed something horrifying. For a second, I genuinely thought my eyes were deceiving me.I blinked twice to be sure. But the figure remained the same.Cold.Tall.Terrifying.Him.A part of me desperately wished it was someone wearing his face as a disguise. "You know damn well nobody would dare impersonate him," my wolf muttered darkly inside my head.A cold shiver crawled down my spine as I slowly looked at him again. He was the only person alive capable of forcing emotions out of me without even speaking.The man behind every nightmare I had ever suffered.The reason for my sleepless nights. The reason I had nearly gone insane years ago. There was once a time I wanted to abandon the Ravencrest name completely and disappear somewhere far away.But he threatened me with my mother.My helpless, sick mothe
REJECTION✤✤MIRA✤✤A cold shiver ran down my spine when Kael repeated those words firmly, "No, she is not our mate!"This time, you can hear the hatred dripping from his voice as if I were the one who started all this.I will never try to claim them.'I told you they are ours,' my Wolf chipped in a
THE MATE BOND ~Mira's POV~ Nobody moved. The wind stopped as fast as it started. But something it brought stayed between us. It hung in the air, like a song note you can't hear yet. Or like right after lightning, before you hear the thunder. Lucien's words faded into the dark. 'That
THE FOREST TRIAL •••**Mira's POV**••• The list went up at seven a.m. Teams of four, assigned by rank. Everyone paired with their bloodline match, their combat level, and their pack alliance. It was neat, logical, hierarchical — the way everything at Apex Moon was organized. At the bott
WEAK WOLVES DON'T BELONG ••~Ronan's POV~•• Combat training was the one place I did not have to think. Everything else at Apex Moon required patience I didn't have — politics, scheming, the careful leadership of who owed what to whom. That was Kael's language. Lucien's game. I was good at
