Aria’s POV: The world shifted as Lucien moved with impossible speed, his grip on me unwavering. The hallway blurred into streaks of candlelight and shadow until he kicked open a heavy oak door."Lucien, what…”My words cut off as he slid me from his shoulder and deposited me into a leather armchair that seemed to swallow me whole. His room was darker than Jasper's, filled with shadows that clung to every corner. The air smelled of him. Dark spices, old books, and something metallic that made my fangs ache."Running was fun," he said, his voice low as he circled the chair slowly. “But now you're caught."I swallowed hard as he stopped directly in front of me, caging me in with his arms on either side of the chair back. His dark hair fell across his forehead, those red-tinged eyes burning into mine."So," he tipped my chin up with cool fingers, forcing me to meet his gaze. “Would you like to tell me why you're running from me, little one?"Heat flooded my cheeks. "You know why.""Did

Aria’s POV:The morning light filtered through the heavy velvet drapes, casting long shadows across the room. I woke to the sensation of smooth skin beneath my fingertips. Lucien. I was tangled in his arms, my head pillowed on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. I traced the lines of his abs, following the hard definition with my eyes. It felt like a dream, a beautiful, terrifying dream that I wasn't sure I would ever wake up from.Yesterday was a blur of fire and ice. The blood. The intensity. The bond snapping into place. It had all been all-consuming. When our bond had finally cemented, it wasn't just a connection; it was an ocean. I could feel everything he felt. His hunger, his pride, his overwhelming need to possess me. It was different from Jasper. Jasper's bond had been a warm, steady light, grounding and comforting. Lucien's was a storm, wild and demanding. I knew Lucien cared about me, but I never thought it went this deep. I looked up to see Lucien

Jasper’s POV:I had never been this angry with Aria. That realization alone should have frightened me.I had spent most of my life being the charming one. The flirt. The fae heir who could smile his way out of almost anything. Anger had never been something I carried for long. Why waste energy being furious when a clever remark or a crooked smile could usually get me whatever I wanted?But this wasn’t something I could smile away.This was Aria. My mate. And apparently, I wasn’t the only one. I walked through the hallway without knowing where I was going, my hands clenched at my sides as Lucien’s words replayed over and over in my head.My mate.He had said it so naturally. So possessively.As if I hadn’t been standing there. As if Aria hadn’t already been mine. The thought was unfair, and I knew it. Aria wasn’t property. She had never been property. The bond between us didn’t give me ownership over her, and I would never want it to. But that didn’t make the pain any less real.I’d on

Aria’s POV:Two days…It had been two days since Jasper found out about Lucien. Two days since I had watched the hurt spread across his face after Lucien called me his mate. And two days since Jasper had walked away from me.The worst part was the bond. It wouldn’t let me forget him. Every hour of every day, I could feel the distance between us like an ache beneath my skin. The bond kept tugging at me, urging me toward him, telling me to fix what I’d broken. But every time I thought about going to him, I heard his voice again.Out of all the mates I could have got, I got one I have to share.The words still hurt. I knew he’d regretted them. I could feel it through the bond. But regret didn’t make them disappear. I pushed my fork around my plate without actually eating anything.The courtyard was crowded with students enjoying their lunch, but I barely noticed them. My mind was somewhere else entirely. How was I supposed to fix this?I hadn’t asked for three mates. I hadn’t chosen Jasp

Aria’s POVI should have known breakfast was going to be a disaster. The moment I walked into the dining hall, I found Lucien and Jasper already waiting for me. Both of them looked up at the exact same time and smiled at me. Then stood up walking my way. I stopped walking. Oh no… “Good morning, little one,” Lucien said.“Morning, little nightmare,” Jasper said at almost the exact same time.I looked between them. They looked at each other. The tension was immediate. I sighed.“Good morning to both of you.” I sat down between them.For approximately thirty seconds, everything was peaceful. Then Jasper pushed a plate toward me.“I got you breakfast.” Lucien immediately slid another plate in front of me.“So did I.” I stared at both plates.“You didn’t have to.”“I know,” Jasper said.“I wanted to,” Lucien added.I smiled awkwardly. “Thank you.”I reached for a piece of fruit. Two hands reached for the same time. Jasper and Lucien both stopped. Their eyes met.“I was going to give that
