บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha's Triplets With a Rejected Mate: บทที่ 161 - บทที่ 170

Lyra's POVI couldn't say exactly how I felt when I heard those words. But I knew that my whole body felt like I was tossed into an ocean with my ankle tied to a boulder and I sank down, my fingers wrapped around my heart as my breath failed, my nostrils packed with water.In other words, I could not breathe.I was feeling my clothes sticking to my body and that was how I knew I was sweating profusely. I wanted to look at Philip, I wanted to turn to him to clarify if that was the truth. For him to tell me that this beautiful woman I was seeing was nothing more than his ex, the ex he had no sort of relationship with any longer. The ex he never told me about. I wanted to know if her story ended there as being an ex because I could feel my sanity slowly slipping from my fingertips."Oh yes,'' I heard Tristan's voice. It sounded so far away but I knew he was merely twenty feet away from me. "I forgot to mention that bit, Lyra. Fiona and Philip have a sexual relationship".My thoughts were

Asher's POVI didn't know where they were running to but surely I was going to find out. I ran after them and I saw them enter the courtroom, exactly where I guessed they would be headed.I made sure not to enter, I didn't want Lyra or Philip to think I was being nosy, even though I was. But I didn't want them to think so.I stayed by the door looking through the small space there in order to see the people who were inside the room.I saw two new faces, however, I could only see the side profile of one of them but I didn't need to see her whole face because I knew exactly who she was.Fiona.An alpha.I didn't have any opinion about her, she was strong, she ruled with the flower and the sword. Her pack wasn't great in number but she didn't care. Instead, she focused on turning them all into killing machine. In the matter of skill, her pack was number one.I had seen her around Tristan a number of times. It seemed that they were closer than mere acquaintances. She looked like she also

Asher's POVI watched the two of them argue, to the extent that Lyra fell on her knees for him. I didn't think he meant so much to her. I never expected the possibility of her being enthralled by him like he was the best thing that had ever happened to her.She begged him, pleaded with him and although he was angry, she was relentless, she didn't want to give up on their relationship.And that realization made me feel a bile rise up in my throat. The cruelty made me realize that I was missing a lot. This was what I wanted from her. These petty fights, these jealousy, these affections, these bickerings, I wanted to live it all with her. I wanted her to be so scared to leave me the way she was scared of Philip leaving her. I wanted her to want me as much as she wanted him.But it wasn't anyone's fault but my own. I had messed up every chance of the two of us being together because of my uncertainty and utter foolishness. These moments that I feel nothing but pure love for her despite kn

Lyra's POVI knew those words had been said from a place of hurt. His eyes looked like they were about to release a major stream and watching him cry because of me was definitely heart breaking. It was funny how everything had turned around. It was I who was supposed to be angry, who was supposed to be pleading with but the ghost of my affairs from the past had surely caught up with me.Looking at how he was behaving over the issue of me coming in between his friendship with Tristan made me wonder if I had ever had a friend like that. Philip obviously loved me and I could see it in everything he did. For him to be mad at me over something like this when he had not been angry that I had almost slept with Asher nor was he angry when I left him because I had hoped that Asher was mine, meant that he really cared about this friendship he shared with Tristan.I wondered how he managed to stay friends with someone who was so toxic that he had to.embarrass his best friend in a room full of ot

Lyra's POV"What?" I asked to be sure.It was at this time, when she opened her mouth to confirm that I had not heard wrong that another person joined us. It was Philip.His eyes looked over to where Fiona was before he sat down beside me. I was instantly sandwiched between the two of them.I could not believe that Philip had been the one who rejected her, he never mentioned they had been mated or was it that Philip never lost his mate?There was no way anyone would lie about such a thing. It was impossible to say such a thing, to give oneself a kind of hurt that didn't exist."Why did you suddenly return?" Fiona asked, "scared that I would say something that shouldn't be said?"He frowned. He didn't look disturbed like he even cared about what Fiona said. He didn't look scared, he looked like he had nothing to hide as he just mindlessly played with my nails.If that was the case, that he wasn't really bothered about me finding out then it could mean that it had no sort of importance
