As I held Ky in my arms, I felt the weight of his grief. He was breaking under the strain of losing his father, the confusion over his fated mate, and everything else that was crashing down on him. Glancing up at Kael, I beckoned him over with a gesture. He understood immediately, moving to wrap his arms around both Ky and me.There was a palpable sense of unity as Kael joined our embrace. I wondered if it was because of my new role as Luna, the influence I had on those around me. It was a strange, new feeling, one that I was still trying to comprehend.After a moment, Kael spoke up, his voice gentle but firm. "Okay, I hate to break this up, but we need to go to the living room and tell everyone who lives in the house first. Then I'll send out an emergency meeting announcement, and we will announce our takeover."Kyran, still in my embrace, corrected Kael. "It isn't ours, Kael. It's yours."Kael let out a short laugh. "Yeah, well, I've stopped telling myself that lie, so you should as

Knox emerged from the basement cellar, dragging Fletcher with a grip as firm as iron. He tossed him unceremoniously at Kael's feet, the thud of Fletcher's body hitting the ground echoing through the tense air. I watched, my heart pounding in my chest, as a palpable wave of raw, unbridled alpha power radiated from both Kael and Knox. It was overwhelming, almost suffocating in its intensity, and I found myself struggling to reconcile these fierce, commanding figures with the men I knew.Kael loomed over Fletcher, his presence dominating. His voice was a menacing growl, each word laced with a ferocity that sent shivers down my spine. "Listen to me, Fletcher, because this is the only fucking chance you're getting," Kael snarled, his face inches from Fletcher's. "You've been hiding behind Dad's protection for too long. Shape up, or I swear, I'll end you. Do you fucking understand me?"Fletcher's response was a defiant sneer, a silent challenge that hung heavily in the air. In an instant, K

As I stepped into the chaos in the master bedroom, it dawned on me why everything was in such disarray. The omegas hadn't been given clear instructions because, as the Luna, that responsibility fell to me. Taking a deep breath, I gathered the omegas around and asserted my role. "Okay, everyone, let's get organized," I started, my voice carrying a newfound authority I hadn't realized I possessed until now. "We're going to install a privacy panel in the center of the room. Each bed will be placed on opposite sides so there's no line of sight between them." I watched as they nodded, their actions finally guided with purpose. "Mirror the setup for both sides," I instructed, ensuring privacy and respect for personal space were always maintained. Given the unique living arrangements, it was a practical solution, albeit born out of necessity. Kael entered just as we were putting the finishing touches on the setup. His brows raised in mild surprise. "Well... not what I would have gone with

As Kael stammered, a trace of panic shadowing his eyes, I recognized the storm I had unintentionally ignited. "Sky, no, I... no..." His voice was a mix of hesitation and alarm, his eyes a storm of emotions I hadn't meant to evoke. Our fingers were locked, resting against his lower abdomen, but he held firm, not allowing further exploration.I urged him to meet my gaze, seeking to bridge the distance his fear had created. "Kael... listen to me, look at me..." I whispered, trying to pull him back to the moment, to me. But as I leaned in for a kiss, his response was distant, his usual passion dampened by his inner struggle.Realizing the depth of his discomfort, I prodded, "I thought you said you trusted me?" His struggle to maintain composure was evident as he attempted to deflect. "We can't. He'll feel this. You know... we can't," he reasoned."Since when have you cared about that? Plus, that's foolish... he isn't going to feel you touching yourself." It was a playful jest, aimed at ea

My consciousness fluttered on the edge of darkness, where pain and relief danced in a delicate balance. Vague impressions and disjointed thoughts ebbed and flowed, a confusing vortex that seemed to pull me under, only to toss me back to the surface. Suddenly, a shocking cold surrounded me, opposite the burning that consumed my skin. It took me a moment to realize I was being submerged in an ice bath. The chill was penetrating, but it brought a numbing relief that my tortured body craved. More startling was the sensation of being held, strong arms wrapped around me, securing me against a solid chest. There was a presence with me in the water, unmistakably one of the triplets, but the fog in my mind made it impossible to discern which. I strained to catch the voices swirling around me, but it was the one murmuring soothingly near my ear that I tried to latch onto. Despite the disjointed nature of the situation, the voice brought a small amount of comfort. I was almost certain it wa
