Todos os capítulos de LUNA OF THE THREE ALPHAS : Capítulo 21 - Capítulo 30

Chapter 21Renn's POVThe atmosphere inside the grand assembly hall remained tense long after Theron declared that Lyra would remain under Ironveil's protection.Although no one voiced another objection, the silence itself spoke volumes. Every Alpha present understood exactly what had happened.Ashveil had arrived expecting to reclaim a disgraced prisoner.Instead, they had found themselves questioned before every neighbouring pack, forced to defend accusations they could no longer support with evidence.Ryker stood beside me with his jaw locked so tightly that I thought his teeth might crack. His pride had suffered a blow unlike any I had witnessed before.He wanted to argue, challenge Theron, and even drag Lyra back to Ashveil by force. And I would be lying if I said I didn't want the same thing. Unfortunately for us, none of those options existed inside Ironveil.To challenge Theron in his own territory would insult every Alpha seated in the hall. Even if Ryker's anger demanded ac

Chapter 23Theron's POV"My Alpha..." For the third time that day, Coren stood before my desk wearing the same helpless expression."She refused again?" I looked up from the report in my hands."Lady Lyra thanked you for your concern but insisted she preferred having dinner in her room." Coren gave an apologetic nod."And she still claims she's unwell?" I sighed quietly before setting the parchment aside."Yes." He nodded, and I leaned back in my chair.The corners of my mouth twitched despite myself. She was obviously hiding from me. The thought should have annoyed me. Instead, I found it strangely amusing.Coren waited for further instructions. Instead of giving any, I rose from my chair."Very well, I will speak to her myself" "As you wish, my Alpha." His brows lifted slightly before he bowed.The corridor outside Lyra's room was unusually quiet, and a single lantern flickered gently against the stone wall as I stopped before her door.I knocked once, but there was no answer. I k

Chapter 25Lyra's POVThe beautiful woman stopped beside Theron as though she had done it a hundred times before. Her movements were effortless, carrying the confidence of someone who belonged in Ironveil just as naturally as the mountains that surrounded it. "There you are… I've been looking everywhere for you," she said warmly, and Theron smiled.It wasn't the polite smile he reserved for guests or the restrained expression he wore during meetings with the elders.It was familiar, and comfortable."You have returned sooner than I expected.""I finished my business yesterday evening. When I heard there was a celebration this morning, I couldn't resist seeing what everyone was talking about." She laughed softly as she took the empty seat beside him. My gaze lowered to the untouched cup of tea before me, and something inside my chest tightened unexpectedly.She knew him well enough to greet him with a kiss, and he knew her well enough not to be surprised.Around the table, none of t

Chapter 27Lyra's POV The sound of Theron's deep voice sent a jolt through my entire body. My fingers froze around the towel resting on the smooth rock, and for one horrifying moment, I forgot I was still standing ankle-deep in the river.Slowly, I turned my head.Theron stood several feet away at the edge of the clearing, dressed in a fitted black tunic with his hands resting loosely behind his back.The fading sunlight filtered through the trees above him, casting long shadows across the riverbank.The moment our eyes met, realization crossed his face, and his gaze immediately shifted away."My apologies, I did not realize you were still in the water," he said calmly, turning his back to me without another glance."I... It's alright." The embarrassment burning through me eased just a little."No, it isn't," he replied. He folded his arms across his chest as he continued facing the forest."I will wait.” He suggested and walked away a little. There was something oddly comforting a

Chapter 29Lyra's POVI stood where Theron had left me, my eyes following him as he disappeared between the trees beside Selene. Their voices gradually faded into the evening breeze until the forest swallowed them completely, leaving only the gentle sound of the river flowing past my feet.My fingers unconsciously brushed against my cheek.Only moments ago, those same fingers had rested beneath his hand."I like seeing you smile."A small smile almost found its way onto my lips before another image pushed its way into my thoughts.Selene!Her cheerful voice had interrupted the moment so naturally, as though she belonged beside him.Perhaps she did. I lowered my hand and let out a quiet breath.With one final glance towards the forest path, I turned and began the slow walk back to the Alpha residence.The journey was quiet, giving me far too much time to think.The more I replayed the afternoon in my mind, the more embarrassed I became. Every smile, every lingering glance, and every
