บททั้งหมดของ Bound by the Moon: Mated to Triplet Alphas : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Ava POV “I didn’t push her, I was only trying to defend myself” I tried to explain as Orion lunged at me.Tracy had already run to him, tears streaming down her face, accusing me of shoving her.“Shut up, you dimwit,” Orion snarled, laughing darkly as he shoved me to the floor. My back hit the ground hard, before I could move, his foot slammed into my stomach, knocking the air from my lungs. Again and again.He stomped on me like I was nothing but dirt beneath his boots.I didn’t cry, didn’t scream, not even a whimper escaped my lips.I just lay there, swallowing the pain like poison, refusing to give him the satisfaction of watching me break.“You worthless human,” he sneered, his voice dripping with hatred. “Just die already, you piece of trash.”His kicks came faster now, each one bruising bone, crushing my pride. Tracy stood beside him, smiling.Smiling.She was supposed to be my best friend. My sister by bond but now she found joy in my suffering.This has been my life for the p

Ava's POV “Mate.”The word slipped from my lips before I could stop it.Gasps echoed across the hall, conversations stopped. All eyes turned to me.The birthday celebration faded into silence.Zack, one of the Alphas of the Moonclaw Pack stood still, his golden eyes wide in disbelief.His gaze scanned me from head to toe. His jaw clenched.Then he said it.“What?” His voice was low, cold. “How can someone like you be my mate?”The words hit harder than any slap I had ever received.My mouth opened, but nothing came out.Luna Carla let out a laugh, sharp and cruel. “Surely, you’re joking, Alpha Zack. This girl? She’s just a servant.”Orion smirked from across the room. Tracy’s eyes were wide, her hand gripping his arm.“She’s not even a real wolf,” someone muttered from the crowd.“I… I just shifted,” I said, barely above a whisper. “Tonight. My wolf, she awakened.”Zack’s eyes narrowed. “You expect me to believe that now, suddenly, you have a wolf?”“I’m not lying,” I said quickly. “

Ava's POV Before I could even react, he was on his feet.In one swift movement, he pulled me into the room and shut the door behind us. My back pressed against the wall as he leaned in, his face dipping into the crook of my neck.“Damn,” he murmured, his voice low and rough. “You smell so good.”I stood frozen, too stunned to move, too overwhelmed to speak.His scent wrapped around me like smoke and fire. His breath was warm against my skin, sending shivers down my spine.Then he pulled back just enough to look me in the eyes.And that’s when I saw it.The same sharp jawline, same piercing gaze and same dangerously beautiful features.He looked just like Zack.Too much like him.But this wasn’t Zack.And it definitely wasn’t Kane.Could this be... Lucas?The third brother.“Could this be Lucas?” I whispered, barely able to breathe.His smirk deepened, eyes glowing slightly with amusement or maybe hunger. “So you’ve heard of me.”I nodded, unable to tear my gaze away.Everything about

Kane's POV When we reached the room I’d given her, I shut the door behind us.She turned to face me, eyes wide. “Kane—”“Don’t.” My voice came out rougher than I intended. “Not right now.”Her hands twisted together. “You can’t just pretend that didn’t happen.”“I’m not pretending,” I said. “I’m thinking about how to keep you safe.”Her brows pulled together. “Safe from what? They’re your brothers.”“They’re still Alphas,” I said. “And when it comes to a mate bond, blood doesn’t stop a fight, it only makes it worse.”Her throat bobbed as she swallowed. “I didn’t ask for this.”“I know.” I stepped closer, letting her see I wasn’t angry with her. “But it’s here and until I figure out how to handle it, you stay close to me. You can’t just wander off here,” I said, my voice still low. “Not with Zack sniffing around and especially not with Lucas being… Lucas.”She hesitated, then nodded. “Alright.”I brushed my thumb along her jaw. “Good.”Immediately my thumb came in contact with her ski

Kane’s POVThe council meeting hadn’t even started before I knew it was a waste of time. It was just a quick exchange of formalities, a few lines of posturing and we were dismissed. Which was fine by me because the sooner I was back at the pack house, the better.During the entire drive back, Rafe hadn’t stopped pacing inside me. We left her for too long.I told myself Lucas wouldn’t be stupid enough to try anything but the mate bond doesn’t lie and right now, it was a live wire in my chest, humming with something hot and unfamiliar.The second I stepped inside the pack house, I knew.Her scent hit me first, it was sweet and warm, the one thing that always settled me but layered under it was something else, it was heat from something intimate.Rafe’s snarl rattled my ribs. He touched her.I crossed the hall, walking fast following the pull of her scent like a trail. It led straight to the dining room.Ava was there, standing near the table. Her cheeks were flushed and her breathing wa
