Elena’s POV

The silence that followed the pack’s departure was heavier than the noise of their transition.

Marcus had gathered the kneeling wolves, his old eyes lingering on Zack one last time before he turned them back toward the lower valley.

Julian had taken the triplets down the SUV. They were tired, and rightly so. I could see them from the distance; Colin was sitting on the bumper with his head in his hands, Cindy was leaning against his shoulder, and Caleb was standing perfectly still,

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   The mistress?

    Elena’s POV“I’d like to take you out,” Those words from Nathan lingered in my mind all day long, I could barely hide my excitement.I kept my chin tucked into my coat collar as I walked down the street after my shift at the clinic. My shoulders ached from a long day of charting, and my fingers still felt stiff from the scrub sink, but my mind was entirely somewhere else.I stopped in front of the small boutique on the corner of Elm Street.A single mannequin stood behind the glass, wearing a simple, deep forest-green dress. I stared at it for a long minute. My mind kept trying to tell me that it was just a dinner; a friendly cup of coffee that had somehow turned into an invitation for a meal. I didn't need a new dress, I tried to convince myself. I had plenty of sensible trousers and neat sweaters in my closet at home.But there was a smaller, quieter voice inside me; one I hadn't listened to in a while that wanted to look beautiful tonight… For him.I pushed the glass door open, th

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   No longer running

    Elena’s POVA few days later…The morning of the coronation, Julian's office in the villa smelled of old paper, strong black coffee, and furniture polish.I found him standing by the window, staring out at the grand courtyard where the pack was already beginning to gather. He had his heavy wool coat off, wearing a simple black button-down shirt that looked a little too loose around his shoulders, and oddly, he looked pale."I don't know about this, Elena," he said, not turning around as my boots clicked on the floor. "I'm a tracker. I spent my whole life looking for things people lost in the swamp. I don't know how to be the person everyone looks to when they need protection.""You already are everything they need," I said, walking up beside him. I reached out, and adjusted the collar of his shirt. "You're the one who brought this pack back to life. They don't need a warrior, Julian. They need someone who knows how to survive, and that's you."Julian let out a dry, quiet breath, as h

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   Rightful Alpha

    Elena’s POVThe villa’s courtyard was completely silent as four hundred pairs of eyes were fixed on us, cold.Beside me, Colin struggled to breathe. His chest rose and fell in quick, shaky breaths, and I could feel the heat coming off his body.The weight of everyone’s gaze seemed to pull him back into that dark basement and his knees began to give way.Before he could collapse, a cool breeze swept across the brick courtyard. It was soft and carried the faint scent of salt and the sea. Somehow, it seemed to lift the heavy silence hanging over the villa.Then Cindy stepped forward, and somehow, she no longer looked like the frightened teenager she used to be.She walked over to Colin and gently took his shaking wrist.The moment she held him, the tension in his body slowly eased. His breathing became steadier, as though her touch was calming the storm inside him.Then Caleb also stepped forward. Slowly, he rolled up the sleeve of his green hoodie and raised his left arm for everyone to

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   The late Alpha’s seal

    Elena’s POVThe moment we crossed the border into the Silver-Crest territory, I realized my brother had not been idle.The decaying, muddy roads I remembered from our escape were gone. It was replaced by clean gravel roads, paved pathways ran through the lower valley, and solar-powered streetlights stood like quiet guardians along the treeline.Even the old cabins that belonged to the pack had been repaired. Their roofs had been patched, their walls cleaned, and they no longer looked like they were falling apart. Julian had dragged this place into the modern world in less than six months.Julian was waiting for us at the border gate, leaning against a clean black pickup truck. He wore a heavy wool coat, his hair was cut short and neat; different from the long hair he was forced to keep when he was still under his father’s command. Though he looked tired, his green eyes were sharp and clear.He quickly escorted our SUV up to the main pack building; the Alpha’s villa. It was a massive,

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   A silent prayer

    Elena’s POVThe front door had barely clicked shut behind Nathan when the heavy, suffocating reality of what lay ahead settled over the living room.I stood in the hallway for a long moment, with my hand resting on the smooth wood of the railing. Upstairs, the house was too quiet. The soft, rhythmic hum of the ocean outside the window, which had felt so comforting just an hour ago, now felt like a cruel mockery.I took a deep, shaky breath, letting go of the small white granite stone at my neck, and walked up the stairs to Caleb's room.The triplets were all there. Colin was sitting on the edge of the mattress, his head was bowed, and his large, copper-skinned hands clasped tightly between his knees. Cindy was curled up on the window seat, her chin resting on her knees as she stared out at the sea. Caleb sat at his desk, staring blankly at his left hand; the hand that was now completely warm, moving, and human.When I stepped into the room, all three of them looked up. The silent, he

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   Zack is dead

    Elena’s POVThe floor tiles were freezing against my bare knees, but I couldn't feel them.My hands were still pressed flat against my face, and my breath was coming in short, choked gasps as the silence of the kitchen closed in around me. The satellite phone lay a few inches away on the floor, a low, dead hiss of static coming from the speaker before the line finally cut out.Last night wasn't a warning or a pulse of anger. It was Zack, using the very last ember of his soul to break the final link between himself and the earth, leaving us behind."Mom?"The soft, hesitant voice came from the doorway.I forced my hands down, swallowing the thick, bitter taste of grief in my throat as I looked up. Colin and Cindy were standing there, their faces looking pale in the bright morning sun. Caleb was right behind them, wearing Leo's oversized green hoodie, his silver eyes wide with a quiet, terrified understanding. They had heard me. They had heard the raw, desperate sound that had torn out

    Elena’s POVThe surgery took six hours. By the time I stepped out of the operating theater, my back was aching and my hands were stiff, but Elder Thomas was stable. I had removed the blackened tissue around his heart. The tissue hadn't just been rotting, but was literally saturated with a dark, oi

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   Get out!

    Elena’s POVThe interior of the SUV felt like a trap. Outside, the city lights blurred into long, neon streaks as Zack pushed the car to its limits, but inside, the air was stifling.I sat in the passenger seat with my hands folded in my lap. I looked like a calm, professional doctor, but my heart

  • The Alpha’s Secret Triplets   You lied

    Elena’s POVThe air in my small front garden felt like it had been sucked out of the world.Zack stood like a statue, his fierce energy, the desperate Alpha who had come to save his dying elder, vanished; it was now replaced by a silence so heavy it made my ears ring. His gaze was no longer on me.
