Chapter: Chapter 03 “What do you take me for? some sort of whore?” The man asked but there was no anger in his voice and that gave me hope that perhaps, I could really get him to do this. Just maybe.“No-no i am sorry but that is not…”“Are you drunk?” He leaned closer as if to perceive my breath and I frowned.“I can assure you that I am of sound mind and -” I stopped and blushed in shame.Goddess above what on earth was I doing?Is this really how bad I had fallen?“Don't worry.” I whispered, “I am sorry for being so rude.”I stood up from the chair. Best that I just accept my fate.But before I could turn to leave the man grabbed my arm and stopped me in my tracks, “Wait!”I did, heart racing so wildly in my chest.‘Tell me why you want to do this.”I took a deep breath, “My father has arranged for me to marry a stranger and… I just want to do something out of my own will before I throw my freedom away forever.”He had a contemplative look on his face as he stared at me then nodded, “Fine. Come on - i

Chapter: Chapter 02I froze, my heart beating against my chest wildly because surely he had to be joking.Surely I heard him wrong.There's no way…there's no way on earth that my father would sell me off to a stranger for money like I was some sort of commodity. My own father.‘What?” I gasped, unable to form anymore coherent thoughts. This had to be a nightmare. It better be a nightmare.“You are finally getting an opportunity to become useful to the community, Xenia. You should be grateful.”His words were like a slice of a blade into my heart.Grateful?I had to be grateful that I was being sold off?“Besides, he is an Alpha which means you are going to be a Luna. A blessing we were expecting to fall on you.”A blessing?Tears burned my eyes and I felt rage building up in me as I looked at my father. MY father.“When he said your daughter - did you for once think of handing lyra over ?” I asked my voice calm, “Of course you didn't. Even though she was the only one worthy to be called your daughter. Bu

Chapter: Chapter OneInvisible.That was one word that relates with me the most these days, a word that best describes my life.And invisible was exactly how I felt as I sat by the window of my room, staring down at my family gathered in the courtyard below.And that feeling of not been seen dwelled on as I watched them fawn over my sister, who was covered in sweat and dust from sparring with a guard.A sigh escaped my lips, when my mum drew her in for a hug, not minding that the dust and sweat might stain her elegant white gown.I drew the curtains closed, shielding myself from the sight that never failed to prick at my heart.One would think that I'd be used to it by now.It's been five years since the local Mage confirmed my parents' worst fear - that I was born powerless.Five years since my parents all but abandoned me. Five years of them treating me like an outcast.Five years of being relegated to the sidelines, the shadows and watching my sister bask in a spotlight.But even though it's been long,

Chapter: 009 - Your girlfriendErix awoke with a start, his body drenched in sweat and his mind still tangled in the remnants of an intense, vivid dream. He could still feel the electric tingle of Lyra’s lips against his, the warmth of her body so close to his. The dream had been so real, so overpowering, that he struggled to shake off the remnants of desire and frustration that clung to him. His heart pounded in his chest as he swung his legs off the bed, the sheets feeling far too warm. The dream had left him with a throbbing heat that he couldn’t ignore, and the only thing he could think of was finding a way to cool down. Grumbling to himself, he made his way to the kitchen, hoping that a glass of cold water would help.As he entered the kitchen, the first thing he saw was his brothers, Dyrion and Tyson, already gathered around the breakfast table. They looked up as he walked in, their expressions shifting from casual conversation to concern as they noticed his distressed demeanor.“Morning, Erix,” Tyson said,

Chapter: 008 - Dear Lila...As Erix and Lyra’s kiss ended, the air seemed to cool, and a palpable tension filled the room. They all stood in silence, the intensity of the moment lingering like a charged current.Erix cleared his throat, stepping back. “That was... not what we intended.”Tyson nodded in agreement. “Yeah, it seems like we all got a little carried away.”Dyrion, who had been watching with a mixture of surprise and contemplation, added, “Maybe we should just stick to our original plan and keep things professional.”Lyra, her cheeks flushed and her emotions in turmoil, nodded silently. “I think... I should go. I need some space.”Without another word, she turned and headed toward the door. Her mind was a whirl of confusion and conflicting feelings about what had just happened. As she stepped out into the hallway, she tried to steady her breathing and clear her thoughts.However, before she could leave the academy, she was stopped by a familiar voice. It was Principal Salvatore—her new stepfather. He

Chapter: 007 - First lessonThe next morning, Lyra woke up with a nervous energy coursing through her veins. The events of the previous day were still fresh in her mind—how she had found herself beaten down in more ways than one, how the triplets had offered her a way out through training, and how, for the first time in a long time, she had felt a spark of hope. After dressing in simple athletic wear, Lyra made her way to the large, airy room that the triplets had told her to meet them in. The space was mostly empty, except for a few mats scattered across the floor and equipment hanging from the walls. Erix, Dyrion, and Tyson were already there, waiting for her. Their casual stances hid a deeper seriousness, one that made her nervous about what was to come.Erix, leaning against the wall, looked up as she entered. “Morning,” he greeted. His voice was calm, but there was an intensity in his gaze.“Morning,” she replied, trying to sound more confident than she felt.Tyson, who was adjusting some equipment, gave h

Chapter: 006 - I am readyThe next morning, Lyra woke up with a sense of dread gnawing at her chest. She wasn’t ready to face the world, especially after everything that happened the night before. But skipping school wasn’t an option, not if she wanted to avoid her mother’s worried questions or the triplets’ infuriating presence. So she pulled herself together, dressed in her usual simple clothes, and made her way to school.The day started quietly enough. She avoided most people, keeping her head down and slipping into her classes without making much noise. But during lunch, as she made her way to her locker to grab her books, she heard a voice that made her stomach drop.“Well, well, well. Look who we have here. The little tramp.”Lyra froze. She didn’t need to turn around to know who it was. Maria, her ex-best friend, and Aiden, her ex, were standing just a few feet away, their sneers sharp enough to cut through her resolve.She swallowed, keeping her back to them as she rummaged through her locker, hoping

Chapter: Chapter 05 - TrappedLyra stormed out of the restroom, her emotions swirling in a chaotic mess. She marched back to the sitting room, her heart heavy with the weight of the betrayal she felt. The moment she stepped inside, her mother’s eyes were on her, filled with worry and regret."Lyra, please," her mother’s voice cracked as she stood up, taking a tentative step toward her. "Don’t leave. Just… hear me out."Lyra crossed her arms, still trembling with frustration. "You’ve already said enough, Mom."Her mother’s eyes shimmered with tears. "I know I should have told you about the marriage sooner. I was just… scared. Scared that you’d hate me for it. I thought I was protecting you.""Protecting me?" Lyra let out a dry laugh, her throat tight. "You kept me in the dark, Mom. How is that protection?"Her mother took a deep breath, wringing her hands. "I didn’t want to overwhelm you. My health, the stress of everything—it clouded my judgment. I thought I was doing what was best, but I see now that I’ve hurt yo

Chapter: 004 - I am done!!Lyra stared at her mother, her mind racing in a million different directions. The triplets—Erix, Tyson, and Dyrion—were her stepbrothers? How had she missed this? More importantly, how had her mom kept this from her?"Mom…" Lyra's voice was barely a whisper as she struggled to process what was happening. "You’re married to HIM?" She pointed at Mr. Salvatore, who looked completely unbothered by the whole situation.Her mother gave her a sheepish smile, as though this was nothing more than a minor inconvenience. "Yes, honey. I wanted to tell you sooner, but—""But what, Mom?" Lyra snapped, her frustration getting the better of her. "You just married my principal—who happens to be the father of them—" she gestured toward the triplets, still standing there with their signature smug expressions, "—and didn’t think it was important to tell me?"Her mother winced at her tone but didn’t back down. "Lyra, I’m sorry. I didn’t want to overwhelm you. This all happened so fast… and I knew you were
