All Chapters of JASMINE'S CLAIM: THE ROYAL TRIPLETS AND THEIR MATE.: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

~Jasmine~"Jasmine!” “Princess! What's going on, I can feel your fear!" Lucien’s voice sounded through the mate bond.Moments later, the bushes tore open.The triplets wolves burst through moving so fast the ground shook beneath me, Kane was at the front, his black eyes locked on the dead wolf lying beside Rhet and i. A growl ripped out of his throat as he sprinted up to me kicking up dry leaves in the process, he shoved his nose into my neck breathing in my scent. He was checking for bites, he stopped when he realized the blood on my face and my dress belonged to Rhet and not mine. Caspian’s light brown wolf trotted up behind him nudging my shoulder, then he turned his attention toward the woods where the wolves who attacked us had run through.Kane and Caspian shared one look, turned around, and ran straight into the front, I figured they were going to hunt the wolves down.Luke stayed behind rubbing his nose all over me, then he transformed back into his human form, went ove

~Jasmine~I woke up feeling numb and disoriented. I blinked twice as my vision cleared, then remembered what had happened. I had fainted, slumped right into Lucien's body outside the cells. The image of Kalean coldly slitting the necks of the queen's personal men appeared in my mind, making me suddenly feel chilly. I moved, trying to drag my sheet over my body, only to see I wasn't the only one on the bed.Caspian was laying facing the other side, snoring softly.I looked around, I was in my room. Apart from just I and Caspian, there was no one else. I felt my body soften as I moved closer to him, but tried not to touch him, just close enough to feel his heat, he stirred a bit then turned, as if he could feel me already. I watched him open his eyes to look at me. I smiled at him as he rubbed his face."What are you doing in my bed?" I whispered as he drew me closer to his body until his naked chest was touching my body.He wrapped his arms around my waist, sniffing me as he inhale

~Lucien~It took everything in me to stay calm when Kalean said he was sending those severed heads to our mother. The words left his mouth easily, like he was talking about something light. But the shock of them still had my body shaking with anger. I stood there, staring at him.I found it hard to believe that our mother would actually send her personal men to kill our mate. It made no sense. My mother was a queen, yes, but she was also the woman who raised me with gentleness. I felt something was wrong somewhere. There had to be a missing piece, a misunderstanding, or a lie. I tried so hard to remain in that room, to act like a prince and keep my composure.Then, the worst happened. Jasmine fainted.Kalean lost his mind, turning all his anger on me, glaring with his jaw clenched, accusing me with his eyes as if it were my fault she collapsed.It wasn’t my fault. I had warned her before we even stepped foot down there. I looked her in the face and told her how brutal his questioni

~Lucien~"What kind of woman would send her men to attack her son’s mate? She isn’t an enemy. She’s like our wife, our princess. She belongs to this family now."I watched as her lips twisted into a tight line. She turned around to face me fully, slamming the brush down onto the table."I will not just watch you and your brothers get mated to that girl," she said, her voice rising to match mine. "She has seduced you three with her gentle look, and you are all too blind to see it. Lucien, can’t you see what is happening? How can she keep three of you to herself? It is greedy. It is a scandal. The three princes of the werewolf clan with one single mate. The packs will talk. She will be sleeping with all three brothers. Don’t you see the kind of gossip a mate like that will create? Don’t you see the shame it will bring to me and your father, the king?"She took a step toward me, her chest heaving in anger. "This throne... we have toiled for it over the years. We bled for this territory

~Kalean~ “But... the King... my oath compels me to report all royal matters to him—” “Your current oath is replaced by a direct command from the Alpha Prince,” I cut in, stepping directly towards her. “I hit twenty-five in two months, Rivera. The crown is already mine. An oath to me is an oath to the future King. Choose.” I let the words and unspoken threat hang in the room. “Sign the paper, heal my mate in secret, and take the power and name you’ve earned over two decades. Or walk out that door and find out what happens when you make me your enemy.” She didn't ask for clarification on the threat. She knew what I was capable of. “Where is she?” Rivera asked after a moment of thinking, she pulled a pen from her coat, stepping past Benjamin to flatten the contract on my desk. Her signature was quick. “Excellent,” I said, turning to Lucien’s Bodyguard. “Benjamin, bring Jasmine here. Wake my brothers and bring them too. We finish this before the whole castle wakes.” “Right
