All Chapters of An Affair With The Triplets: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

ElaraThe wave of golden energy that had emanated from me had dissipated, but the commotion it had caused in the training center was palpable. I felt like a cornered animal with all eyes on me.Most people's eyes were a mixture of fear and awe.The triplets approached me with concern, but there was a hint of pride in their eyes that shook me. Aiden and Brayden took me by the shoulders, and Jayden finally helped me up and guided me to the exit.I didn't protest to any of them.The reality was that I wanted to run, but my body wouldn't respond.I felt as if my legs were about to give way, and I let myself be led like a puppet without a will of my own.I didn't notice anything; I ignored the people and the world. I only know that we arrived at the principal's office because I recognized a familiar place. I felt strange, very strange, and I didn't understand exactly why, although I could figure out what it was because of.Once I sat down, I took a deep breath.Something inside me ignited.

ElaraDays after the incident at the training center, life at the academy had returned to a tense normalcy. My physical wounds from the fight with Darian had healed thanks to Luna Kate's care, but the spiritual wounds remained open.Rumors about me spread like wildfire, but the silence and vigilance of my mates protected me from curious glances and whispers. Going to the oracle was my only hope, like a light at the end of a dark tunnel.But I had to be very patient.We were heading to the morning classroom, a ritual that had become strange. I walked between the triplets, feeling their auras surround me in a protective shield. On the right was Aiden, his presence a rock, a solid wall of calm and power. On the left, Jayden, a calm volcano, his aura fiery and protective. In front of us, Brayden, his aura a mist that helped me not to feel panic. I walked in the middle, a pawn on a chessboard, an object of protection, a person who was no longer a person but a strange being, a monster.Stop

ElaraThe healing was rapid, almost unnatural.The dagger imbued with dark magic had mortally wounded me, but my body, with the help of the healer, had recovered in a matter of days. I felt the wound, the place where the dagger had lodged, like a scar. But it was a scar that didn't hurt. It was a scar that reminded me that I was more than I thought I was.The problem was that my quick recovery was not a relief but a source of further concern for my mates.And yes, I had already admitted that they were my mates.The funny thing about all that was that they didn't leave me alone for a second. The overprotection, which at first felt like a security blanket, became a straitjacket.And I wanted to explode.Aiden was my guardian.His presence was constant, like an immovable wall. He sat in the chair next to my bed, and his eyes never left me. He didn't talk much, but his hand, which rested on mine, was an anchor that held me steady in the storm. His hands, which were so big and strong, felt

ElaraMy words echoed in the air, cold and sharp.The silence that followed was heavier than any blow. My mates, the triplets, stood motionless, their faces masks of astonishment. The rage that had consumed me dissipated, leaving me empty, alone, and full of regret. I wanted to take it back, but I couldn't.I had said what I felt, what I had been holding back for days.They left, and I remained broken on the steps.Hours later, I arrived alone at the castle, and just as I was ready to go to my room, Alpha Kaelen called me.“Elara. Come with me,” he said seriously, and my heart stopped.I saw that the triplets were behind him.Their expressions ranged from concern to surprise, so I clenched my fists to calm myself.What was the Alpha going to do? Was he going to scold me? Was he going to punish me?My body tensed at the thought, but the Alpha looked at me wearily, and his voice, which was normally authoritative, was now pleading.“Let's go into the library,” he said, and I nodded.I fo

ElaraThe astonishment on the Oracle's face was a palpable force, a force that filled the cave and made me feel as if my world had stopped. His eyes, which had been a silvery glow, were now filled with a mixture of reverence and terror that made me tremble as darkness clouded them.The Oracle said nothing, just looked at me, and in his gaze, I saw that my destiny was not a normal one but one that would change the world.That terrified me completely.My skin bristled, and bile rose in my throat. I wanted to vomit, but I couldn't.Nerves attacked my stomach viciously.Then, in a slow movement that felt like it lasted an eternity, the Oracle leaned over the sacred fountain, and his lips touched the water. He drank as if he were parched with thirst, the water, a source of light, sliding quickly down his throat. And then, a sound, the sound of a heart breaking, was heard.My ears roared strangely, and my wolf cried without explanation.A strange tension overwhelmed me, then the Oracle stra
