Lahat ng Kabanata ng HOWLSTONE ACADEMY:300 DAYS WITH THE ALPHA-BETA TRIPLETS: Kabanata 171 - Kabanata 180

THIRD PERSON POV:When Bella heard this, she sensed her father knew something, but she couldn’t betray Ryder by coming clean because that would only anger Herald more. “Now?” Ryder asked, and Herald shrugged. “I have a lot of papers to go through, from the pack’s budget to other matters, but I got a little bored, and you came to mind,” he said, and Ryder glanced at Bella, who had her gaze fixed on her father. “Is there a problem, sweetheart?” Herald asked Bella, but she didn’t speak. Hazel stood behind the Alpha, trying to decipher his motives. She felt he was aware of what had happened, and she, too, feared what he planned to do to Ryder. “You know he doesn’t have to, right?” Bella said to defend Ryder, and Alpha Herald said nothing. Then she turned to Ryder. “You don’t have to do it if you don’t want to,” she said to him so he would know she supported him. Ryder was scared because the look on Herald’s face didn’t show this would be a friendly match. For days, Herald had given

THIRD PERSON POV:When Bella opened her eyes, she found herself enveloped in darkness. She felt the damp chill of stone pressing against her skin, which made her bones feel as though they were breaking. She blinked, her vision adjusting to the faint glow of flickering candles mounted along the walls of a shadowy cave. The air was thick with the scent of herbs and something metallic, almost like blood, mingling with it.She tried to move, but her limbs refused to obey. That was when she realized her wrists and ankles were bound with chains. Her mind became clear at once, and the memories from the mountain flowed in. She glanced around with her heart racing, taking in the jagged rock walls, which had figures carved into the stone. Shadows danced across these markings, drawing her attention toward the front of the room, where a cauldron bubbled in one corner, sending up a thin stream of greenish vapor that wove through the cave like a serpent.Two women stood before the cauldron, but she

THIRD PERSON POV: Bella and her mates didn’t need to be told twice before they rushed out of her room, making their way downstairs. They met the alpha in the living room. “You kids, stay back!” Herald yelled at them, and they came to a halt as he made his way out of the house with some of his guards. They headed for the gate, which was surrounded by a group of angry pack members with torches of fire, chanting heavily. “We want the hybrid! We want the hybrid!” The chant intensified as the alpha made his way towards them. Bella and the triplets rushed back upstairs, then stood by the window, looking out to see almost the entire pack surrounding the walls of the alpha’s house. They listened carefully, making meaning of the words being chanted from afar. At first, they doubted it, but they spotted a placard which said: “All hybrids and vampires must die!” “I shouldn’t have come to this pack,” Bella muttered, crashing to the ground. The triplets crouched around her.

Bella:The horrific image of Beta William going up in flames still burned in my memory. I couldn’t believe the entire pack had done that to him without consideration. The boys and I were ushered back into the house as soon as the arena became rowdy, but we couldn’t forget. We all sat still in the living area, staring into blank space.“Bella!” Hazel called out, throwing her arms around me, drawing me back to reality. My body shuddered underneath hers as I spread out my arms to take her hug.She pulled away, then placed her hand on my forehead. “Took away your memory of being a hybrid,” she whispered, then walked over to the boys, who were still seated in one spot.They came back to life with Hazel’s touch.“I do not think I am enjoying this holiday,” Kai said, and we all sighed simultaneously. Once more, I felt terrible for dragging them into a mess like this.The times they had planned the holidays, it turned out much better, but with me, all they got was chaos.“I think we should ge

Bella:The island had been nothing but a fairytale. I had only one week left before the break ended, and being with my mother seemed surreal. Every day with her was like a party, and I had been relaxed for a while. Well, temporarily, and this was because we were having so much fun—or she wanted me to think we were having so much fun. Something felt off about her, and I couldn’t tell if it was my intrusive thoughts that abhorred happiness or my gut telling me the truth.This morning, I woke up to her yelling on the phone with my father.“And you thought it was okay to tell me this after one week?” When I heard this, I knew what she was talking about. “You say you want to be with her, and you want us to come together as a family, but you continuously expose her to danger. I had to put myself out there just for you to look good, Herald. I forgave you multiple times because I believed in you, and you were not your mother. But let me tell you something, Herald, I was opportune to meet only
