Semua Bab Bound by the Moon: Mated to Triplet Alphas : Bab 61 - Bab 70

Kane's POVThe night air was cold against my skin as we left the pack. To the outside world, it looked like three Alphas heading out on another hunt but inside, I was breaking apart piece by piece.The bond with Ava was there, but faint, It was like a candle flame blown by wind. Not gone, not dead. Just suppressed so low it was agony to reach for her and feel nothing but a thin, trembling thread. It was worse than pain, it was emptiness.Zack walked beside me, quiet as ever, his jaw locked tight. Lucas was on my other side, restless, his eyes flashing gold every time his wolf surged forward. None of us spoke, what words were there when all three of us were thinking the same thing? She's gone, she's hurting and we can't get to her fast enough.At the edge of the forest, our Betas, Elias, Marcus and Jake, all waited with three horses. "They went north," Elias reported quickly. "Scouts picked up their trail just past the ridgeline but Alpha..." he hesitated, his eyes flicking between us,

Ava’s POVI don’t know how long I’ve been here. Days? Weeks? Because it felt like eternity, the cold seeps into my bones, blurring time until it feels endless. The walls don’t change, neither did the statues. Their empty, cracked eyes seem to follow me everywhere I go, their shadows stretching long across the floor like grasping hands. The dolls with broken faces sit in the corners, silent and twisted.My stomach twisted painfully. I was feeling very hunger and the wolfsbane was still dragging through my veins.The door creaked open suddenly, spilling a slice of light into the room. A guard shoved a plate inside.“Eat,” he muttered, his voice flat, before slamming the door again.The sound echoed, leaving me alone with the smell of bread and meat.I stared at it.My hands shook not just from weakness but from the war inside me. Every instinct screamed at me to crawl across the floor and grab the food. I clenched my fists. My stomach was rumbling but I shoved the plate away with my fo

Ava’s POVMia’s screams hadn’t left me. Even after days later, I could still hear them echoing in my skull, sharp and piercing, like claws scratching the inside of my head.Her face, soaked in tears, twisted in agony as the silver blade carved her skin. The smell of blood and burning flesh clung to me and my own voice, broken and desperate, rang again and again in my memory.“I’ll do it! I’ll be your Luna! Please, just stop hurting her!”The moment those words left my lips, I felt something inside me collapse. My wolf whimpered deep in my chest and my heart cracked. I had promised myself I will never give in, never bow to him but the second that silver dagger was on Mia’s skin, my resolve shattered.And he knew it, the Alpha with the red eyes knew I would break.That cruel smile of his still burned in my vision, the kind that said he had already won long before the game even started.Now, I sat in a chamber far from the cold room, on the edge of a bed that wasn’t mine. The black dress

Ava’s POVI was in the chamber, when two guards came for me.“Luna,” one of them said flatly. “The Alpha requests your presence.”The word still struck me like a knife. Luna, It wasn’t honor or respect, it was a leash.I followed them down the halls and out into sunlight. For the first time, I saw the center of his territory. The courtyard was alive. Warriors sparred, blades were clashing. Women rushed past with baskets, while pups darted around, laughing. Then people noticed me.“That’s her.”“The Alpha’s Luna.”“She doesn’t look like much.”Some bowed stiffly, while others sneered. One woman spat at the ground, her gaze full of disgust. My chest tightened but I held my head high.Then a small voice cut through the murmurs.“Is she… really our Luna?”I froze.A boy no older than six stood just ahead, holding a stick in one hand like it was a sword. His brown eyes were wide, hopeful, too innocent for a place like this. His mother gasped and rushed forward, tugging at his arm but he p

Ava’s POV“AVA!”The Alpha’s voice was deep and booming, it sounded closer than I wanted to believe it was.Mia whimpered, she was flinching so hard the chair was shaking. My stomach dropped.My heart was pounding. I yanked the ropes harder desperately. Sparks flickered against my fingertips, Ella’s strength pushing through me. Smoke rose as the rope began to burn, the strong smell of burnt fibers filling the cell.Mia’s eyes widened in shock. “Your hands, Ava, you’re burning yourself—”“It doesn’t matter,” I snapped, my voice trembling. Tears stung my eyes. “I’ll burn myself to nothing if I have to but I’m getting you out of here.”The footsteps grew louder, faster and it was getting closer. The Alpha’s voice rumbled again, deeper this time, reverberating through the dungeon.“You think you can run from me, Ava? You think you can slip away from me?”My whole body trembled but I leaned close, pressing my forehead against Mia’s. “You’re not alone anymore, do you hear me? Whatever happe
