Todos os capítulos de Owned by the triplet: Capítulo 41 - Capítulo 50

The fire from last night had burned down to glowing coals, but the warmth in the room stayed. I woke up feeling different. For the first time since the night at the bar, I didn't feel like a bird in a cage. I felt like I was exactly where I was supposed to be. I looked at the ceiling and realized I had stopped dreaming about the city. I was dreaming about them.I got out of bed and walked to the large balcony. The estate was waking up. I could see the guards moving in the distance and the sun hitting the trees. I touched the Mark on my neck. It didn't sting. It hummed with a soft, steady pulse that felt like a second heartbeat."You're up early," Alaric said. He was standing by the door, wearing a simple black sweater. He didn't look like a cold professor. He looked like a man who had finally found peace."I couldn't sleep," I said, turning to him. "I was thinking.""About running?" he asked. There was no anger in his voice, just a quiet curiosity."No," I said.

The air in the bedroom was so thick and hot it felt like a physical weight. After weeks of running, fighting, and pushing them away, I was finally the one who had opened the door. The brothers didn't waste another second. They moved like a single shadow, surrounding me on the massive bed until I couldn't see anything but their glowing eyes and the moonlight hitting their skin.Alaric moved over me first. He didn't say a word, but his expression was more intense than I had ever seen it. He gripped my wrists and pinned them above my head, holding them easily with one hand. With his other hand, he guided himself to my lips. I opened for him instantly. He was large and hot, and as he pushed inside, my eyes rolled back into my head. I couldn't speak even if I wanted to. I could only make small, desperate whining sounds in my throat as he began to move, filling my mouth with a slow, steady rhythm."Look at her," Silas whispered. He was kneeling beside me, his hand sliding over my

Sarah turned out to be exactly what I needed. She didn't treat me like a Queen, and she definitely didn't treat me like a prisoner. She treated me like a normal person who just happened to be having a very strange week. We sat in the sunroom, the afternoon light hitting the floor in long, warm stripes. She had brought a bag of yarn and was working on a tiny blue sweater."How far along are you exactly?" I asked. I watched her needles click together in a steady, calming rhythm."Seven months," she said. she stopped for a second to rub her belly with a tired smile. "Jax is a total nervous wreck. He won't let me walk to the mailbox without four guards trailing behind me. Lycan pregnancies are intense, Elena. The babies grow fast and they are a lot stronger, even before they are born. I feel like I'm carrying a little bowling ball that likes to kick my ribs.""I can imagine," I whispered. I thought about the raw power I had felt from the triplets last night. If their childre

 The man didn't wait. He lunged, the silver blade cutting through the air with a hiss. I swung the glass vase with everything I had. It shattered against his shoulder, but he didn't even flinch. He backhanded me across the face, and I hit the floor hard. My vision spun in circles, and the taste of blood flooded my mouth."Elena!" Sarah screamed. She tried to reach for me, but she was struggling to move with the weight of her belly."Get up," the man barked, reaching for my hair to drag me up."No!" I scrambled away, grabbing Sarah’s hand. "We have to go! Sarah, run!"We stumbled out of the sunroom and into the main hallway. It was filled with thick, black smoke that made me cough. I could hear shouting and the sound of heavy boots everywhere. The front of the house was already crawling with masked men. I knew we couldn't go that way."The servant’s exit," I gasped, pulling her along. "The woods are right behind it. We can h

 I sat at the head of the long table, my hands flat on the smooth surface. Across from me sat the five elders of the Council. They were old, they were arrogant, and they were currently trying to tell me how to run my territory. Silas sat to my right, leaning back with his arms crossed, a look of bored annoyance on his face. Killian sat to my left, his jaw tight. He hadn't said a word in twenty minutes, but I could hear his fingernails drumming a slow, warning rhythm against the side of his chair."The decision has been made, Alaric," Elder George said, his voice thin and raspy. He tapped a stack of papers in front of him. "The human girl is a liability. The treaties are very clear about inter-species mixing. We need to remove her from the estate before this turns into a war we cannot win.""A human mate is a stain on our history," Lord Thorne added from the corner of the table. He looked at me with pure disgust. "She cannot shift. She cannot run with the p
