Lahat ng Kabanata ng THE TRIPLET ALPHAS AND THEIR REJECTED MATE: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Shannon’s POVThe morning sunlight gently streamed into the room and stirred me awake. As I opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed was Brendan’s comforting arms wrapped protectively around me.The memories of the previous night immediately flooded my mind – from the degrading encounter with Ricky to seeking comfort in Brendan that night.Turning to face Brendan, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of gratitude as we both sat up. “Thank you for being there,” I whispered, my voice carrying the weight of the vulnerability I’d exposed.Brendan offered a reassuring smile. “It’s alright. I’m just glad I could help. No one should have to go through that.”As we sat there in a moment of understanding, Brendan’s words hinted at a deeper connection between us, a bond that was more than mere friendship. The thought of having someone who genuinely cared for me gave me some hope.Recalling his innocent attempt towards me, I promised Brendan, “As mates, we’ll spend more time together. In every way,

Shannon’s POVEven the scent of freshly brewed coffee couldn’t put away the tension that clung to the air. After the moment with mom in the kitchen, I retreated to my room.The routine of getting ready for school had become an automatic process, each action a distraction from the uncertainty that awaited me beyond my doorstep.A quick brushing of my teeth, a warm shower, and the rustling of clothes followed. The face of everything being fine that I had to maintain for the outside world felt like a stupid mask.With my schoolbag slung over my shoulder, I was ready to face another day at school. Yet, the small container in my hand, containing the mysterious potion I’d been made to take since childhood, made me to pause. The liquid held both a familiarity and a mystery.As I popped the container open and allowed the liquid to flow into my mouth, the taste triggered a series of questions. Why have I been taking this portion every single day of my life? What secrets did it hold? Mom’s insi

Shannon’s POVAfter Brendan left, the day continued with a strange mix of emotions, as I continued my experiment of abstaining from the mysterious potion. The absence of the daily routine allowed my senses to sprout in ways I hadn’t anticipated. My wolf, usually subdued, now seemed to stir with an intensity that was alarming.As the hours passed, I noticed an never-seen clarity in my perceptions—every scent, every sound, and every detail of the world around me became vivid. It was as though a veil had been lifted, revealing a sensitivity that definitely extended human experience.The most surprising revelation was the shift in my perception of the triplets. Once seen as my tormentors, my wolf now regarded them differently. Their scents, once sources of fear and panic, now carried a certain allure. It wasn’t mere tolerance; it was a wild craving that stirred deep in my core.The mating bond that linked me to the brothers, a bond I assumed would die off as I embarked on a new journey wi

Shannon’s POVSwollen eyes and a deep ache within, I turned from my sleep. Having nothing else to do, I had cried myself to sleep again after the boys left me there. I looked out the window and seeing the brightness of the sun, I glanced at my phone and the device revealed that it was already noon.The remnants of despair clung to my mind as I tried to get myself together. It was time to forget about it and face reality. It was time to rewrite my fate, and by this, I meant shattering the plans for today’s mating ceremony with Brendan.Stumbling down the bed, I glanced at the mirror again, and this time, I captured the reflection of a girl who was ready to start afresh. Determination then shone in my eyes – a spark that helped me decide on what I wanted.Out the room and down the staircase, my legs led me through the heavy silence of the house as I marched to find mom. As I approached the living room, I caught fragments of conversations there, my mother’s voice mixing with Robin’s.I b

Shannon’s POV Certainly, Ricky wasn’t bluffing, whenever he said a word, he always followed it until the end even if it was going to cause him to spill blood. Even if I wanted to make him feel the same way I feel whenever they bring Selena home, I will have to find another option. It would be wicked of me to risk someone’s life just to get him jealous. Besides, I was only bluffing, had no other guys to bring in, every guy I know hated and looked down on me.“Where have you been pretty? I checked your room and everywhere you always visit but I didn’t find you.” Jules said with a merry tone, snapping me from my revive. “I went out.” I replied, flashing a coy smile at him. “Really? And you couldn’t tell me?” “I’m sorry. Excuse me.” I said then turned around to leave. For the rest of the day, Ricky’s words continued to ring in my head, hence making me uncomfortable. I even tried to get a nap in a bid to forget about it, but I woke up with the thought still on my mind. At this point
