Daniel's POV
“What do you mean she is your mate?” I asked David, the youngest among us triplets, with a placid expression on my face.
He had gone with Damien, the eldest among us on a mission in the Fiery Fang pack the night before.
David came back early and he had this blonde green eyed beauty with him, and now my wolf has chosen her for me as a mate.
“I found her, and my wolf chose her for me as a mate… what's so hard to understand there?” David asked me and it only infuriated me the more.
“Well then, let her choose between us,” I said and shoved him aside.
My jaw dropped when my gaze fell on the empty car, “Where is she?”
David bent down and looked in the car and he balled his fist in anger the moment he realized she wasn't there.
The door on the other side of the car was open and she had run away from there.
David gritted his teeth and pushed me.
“You see what you've caused!” He growled at me.
I worriedly looked around but there was no sign of her.
“You share my face, you share almost everything I have, you also want to share my mate too?” David asked me, still infuriated.
I had no time to fight with him.
I had to find her, as soon as possible.
I took to my heels and raced inside the woods, leaving David standing there.
I turned back to see him fist his hair in frustration and sat on the bumper of his car.
“I have to find her… I have to bring her back,” I muttered as my heart started to beat faster.

It was late at night when I got back home, I found David pacing the corridor waiting for me.
“Daniel, did you see her?” He asked with so much hope in his voice.
I looked away in sadness and the look in my eyes gave him the answer.
“Fuck!” He grunted.
“Fuck you, Daniel… Fuck you.” he turned and stormed out of the house in a rage.
I slammed my forehead with my palm, “Where could she be… she doesn't know anywhere around here.”
I walked up the stairs, entered my room, om and sat on the bed, my hands ran through my shoulder-length wavy blonde hair, combing it back.
Damien, Daniel, and David.
That's the name of us triplets.
Damien is the eldest so he is the Alpha, he is the strongest, very calm and collected, and he talks less but he has a hot temper.
Damien takes care of the pack's politics.
I am Daniel, the second son, I am more in the middle, I do things fifty-fifty, some days I am jovial, other days I am grumpy, and I take care of the company and family business.
David the youngest is the most carefree among us, he is always talking and doing the most, he doesn't care about politics and he always gets on the nerves of Damien because of his nonchalant attitude sometimes.
David is a doctor and even though the ladies like me, they like David the most.
All three of us do our things, and we barely talk to each other or get along so well.
David and I have chosen the same girl as a mate, could it be that she is also Damien's mate?
“Darn…” I looked out of my room window and then at the moon.
“What are you up to?” I asked out loud to my great godmother who is the moon goddess.
“Why have you made me and David have the same mate?”
I stared at the sky for a while as though I was expecting a response.
The stars around the moon soon formed a smile and I shook my head at them.
“Please bring her back… I want her.”
I got up and took off my clothes before walking into the bathroom and taking my bath.
As the cool water rushed down my body I closed my eyes as I breathed in slowly, her picture still vivid in my mind.
Her blonde wavy hair, her green eyes, her skin.
“Fuck!” I groaned out loud in frustration.
“Why can't I get her off my mind?”
I fisted my hair as I blew out water from my mouth.
I looked down to see my cock semi-hard.
“I want her so bad…”
I walked out of the shower shortly took the towel on the stand and tied it around my waist.
I strolled up to the table in front of my dressing mirror and picked up my body cream.
My eyes went down a bit and I saw the bulge on my towel.
I sucked in air through my softly parted lip as I pressed my cock down.
“Stay down young man… you don't even know her name and you are all worked up.”
My cock popped back up and became harder as I took my hand off it.
“I need to relieve myself,” I said and stared down at the body lotion in my hand and I turned to go to the bathroom.
Grmm Grmm…
My phone ringing on the bed made me turn to it.
I walked up to it and the name on the screen made me smile.
Isabella, my girlfriend.
I touched the green icon and then I touched the loudspeaker icon.
“Hey babe.”
“Hey darling,” her soft voice rang from the speaker of my phone.
“What's up… I heard you were in town?”
“Yes I am darling… how did you hear it, I wanted to give you a surprise,” she replied in a disappointed tone.
I chuckled and kept mute.
“I wanna come over babe… I feel so lonely over here,” she said over the phone.
Does she want to come over?
I looked down at my cock still hard and I gulped.
“Baby?” I heard her call from the phone.
“Yes… that's fine… I'll be waiting for you at home.”
“Okay baby, I love you,” she giggled and ended the call.
She didn't bother to wait for a response from me, she knew I would never lie to her, that I love her.
Our relationship is just for fun and she knows it.
I walked up to my wardrobe and opened up my box of condoms.
I pulled out three condoms and threw them on my bed as I took out a loose shirt and pants to wear and waited for Isabella.
“I think this will help me get my mind off her… Isabella is so good in bed, sex with Isabella tonight should take my mind off her.”
Damien's POVI shuffled my feet as I sat in the car heading back to my pack.I was deep in thought.A war is coming.I had gone to the Fiery Fang pack for a political meeting, but everything went south when the Alpha insulted my late father.My late father was a man of virtue, he never agreed to be fraudulent like most of the other Alpha.That was why he was loved by many, he was also hated by many because of his honesty and transparency.The other Alpha's saw it as him being weak, and also distanced themselves from him.I couldn't sit and watch the Alpha call my late father weak and I pounced on him, almost choking him to death, save for the invention of five of the guards that managed to pull me off him.The fight was bloody and even though I won and I had the upper hand, I knew a war was brewing.I turned around and saw my Beta, Henry sitting by my side, his expression was brim as he stared out of the window.“Was I wrong?” I found myself asking him.He turned to me and smiled soft
Daniel’s POVI heard my room door open and I looked up to see her standing in front of me.The light from outside couldn't make me see her face.I got up to my feet and approached her quickly, “You are here?” I said smiling.“Yes, my love,” she replied.I recognize that voice, “Isabella?” I asked.She nodded and stepped into the light and my heart sank.I bit my bottom lip in disappointment as Isabella stared up at me with her big brown eyes.“Of course, it's me… who else would it be, you asked me to come remember?” She asked and rolled her eyes before she batted her full lash at me.Fuck, I thought it was my mate.Why would I be so stupid to think it was her, she ran away from here so why would she come back here again?Isabella turned and walked towards my bed with her perfect curvy figure, she turned sat on the bed, and crossed one of her legs over the other as she placed her hand on the bed and rolled her head back.“I missed you, baby,” she said in a slow moan.I couldn't help bu
Serafine's POVI blinked open my eyes as the chirping of birds woke me up from my sleep.This scent, smells heavenly, where am I?I looked around the black-themed master's room with furrowed.I sat down on the king-sized when I felt a bang pain on my head, I grimaced and touched my temple to feel a plaster on my head.I felt it further and jumped down from the bed to a large mirror on the wall to see if it was a plaster around my head.I looked at the mirror and the first thing that caught my eye was the oversized pajamas I wore.I raised the collar and sniffed it.“Oh… it smells so nice,” I found myself saying with a smile.“Who could have brought me here?” I asked out loud and I stared at my wounds, “He even helped me dress my wounds.”I walked around the room as I shrugged, “Must be a nice person… he smells nice too,” I giggled to myself.The creaking sound of the door opening made me turn back to see who was coming in.My jaw dropped immediately when I saw a lady wearing a maid's
Daniel's POVI gritted my teeth as I stared at Isabella.“I thought I asked you to stare in the room, Bella?” I said as I approached her.She pursed her lips and balled her fist, “Daniel, I need an answer, who is she?” She yelled.I turned and saw her staring at us with large eyes.I faced Isabella, “Sshh,” I tried to make her calm down.“Why should I keep quiet?” She yelled out again.“You'll scare her, keep your voice down Bella,” I said through gritted teeth as I grabbed her arm.Isabella looked down at her hand where I held her tightly, “You're the one scaring me Daniel,” she looked back at me with wet eyes.I gulped. I had never handled her this way before. I was sure she was feeling so bad right now.“Isabella, why can't you just stay calm, I'll talk to you about this later, okay?” I said to her softly.“No Daniel, right now,” she said.I closed my eyes as I breathed out slowly, “Fine, let's go out from here first.”Isabella nodded and was about to move out, and I closed my eyes
Serafine's POVI reached the study and saw Isabella race out of the study in tears. She glared at me in anger as she passed me.I looked up and saw Daniel staring into space with his fist balled up.I was about to leave and maybe come another time, but I was frozen to a spot.He was boiling in anger, he turned and was about to kick the table when he yelled at me.“I thought I told you to get out!” He yelled and I flinched.I turned and was about to leave when I heard him call my name softly.“Serafine?” He called.I turned to him slowly, and he walked up to me.“I am so sorry, I never knew you were the one standing there.”I nodded at him, and he held my hand and led me inside the study.He pulled out a chair for me and made me sit on it.“Thanks,” I said as I tried to avoid his gaze.He took his seat and closed his laptop as he pushed the table aside and faced me.I looked up at him and noticed that his anger was gone, and he had a calm look on his face.I looked away again. I couldn
Damien's POVI drove my car into the mansion and I furrowed my brows when I saw Tina pacing the corridor with a sullen look on her face.I had left the girl in my room and rushed out early this morning for some political meeting.I hope nothing is wrong with her. My heart tightened in my chest as I thought of what could be wrong.Did she leave?As soon as Tina saw my car, she rushed up to me with tears in her eyes.I bit my bottom lip as she approached my car with her slutty outfit.I had told her to stop dressing like this in the mansion.I packed the car and got out of the car. Tina rushed up to me and started crying.“Sir…” she wailed, shaking her legs and her boobs almost fell out of her dress as she shook.I looked up from her boobs and at her face to see her eyes were red and puffy.“What happened, Tina?” I asked, my heart throbbing as I prayed silently that she wouldn't say something had happened to the girl in my room.“Sir Damien, it's Sir Daniel,” Tina cried as she threw her
David's POVI have been out all night, and still no sign of her.I ran my hand through my blonde hair as my chest tightened.Who knows where she might be, is she safe?I walked in through the gate into the mansion and my eyes caught Damien making a phone call.I gritted my teeth as I saw how he stared at him. He is always cold and emotionless.There is no need to talk to him, he would never understand what love truly means.I sighed as I walked past Tina, and I raised my gaze to see Daniel standing in front of someone.I tried to see who it was, but Daniel was obstructing my view.Why is my heart throbbing all of a sudden?Why am I itching to see who that is?I hastened up my step and I walked up to Daniel.I shoved him to the side and my eyes met the most beautiful green eyes I had ever seen.My heart shrunk immediately when I saw her. I cupped her face as I tried to see if it was my eyes playing games with me.But no, it's her, I can feel her.“Where…” I said dryly.She looked up, a
Serafine's POV“Ughhh” I grunted as I reached the corridor.“Why can't they just be together in peace… why does it have to be this way?”I turned towards the room I had woken up in.Damien's room.“I guess this isn't where I should be… it would only make them fight about it… I'll just find a vacant room and stay.”I said as I walked down the corridor with my hands holding each other behind my back.I passed a room and I paused.Why does something pull me from this room?The same happened this morning while I was walking down this alley and ended up in the study.I faced the room and I stared in through the top glass part of the door.All the furniture was covered with white cloth, including the frame on the wall, which grabbed my attention.I sensed someone breathing slowly beside me and I flinched when I turned to see Daniel's sea-blue eyes peering at me with his head just beside mine.“What are you doing here?” I asked as my heartbeat increased because of the shock he gave me.He st
"You are free to choose your path, Abigail. You are stronger than his lies."The voice of Serafine sounded in my head-a small beacon of light tearing through the darkness that had consumed my mind for far too long. I felt the magic of Lucian clutching at my throat, seeking to snuff out the light, but something buried deep within me had started to stir-a truth hidden even from myself.The visions that had wracked my mind finally dissipated, and I saw Lucian's face, twisted in anticipation. He thought he had me, that he'd won, but he had no idea yet.I drew a deep breath and let the tumult of what was happening around us fade to a silent hush. Now or never. "You're right, Lucian," I said, willing my tone to stay even. "I do know what I must do."His face twisted in a triumphing leer. "Then fulfill your destiny," he hissed, reptilian.I met his stare, eyes slitting. "I already have."Before Lucian could even react, I harnessed a surge of magic deep within me and let it explode, shatteri
As we entered deep into the tunnel , the walls seemed to close in on us. Every step that we took resounded against the blackness.With every minute, the air grew heavier as we re-approached the stronghold of Lucian, taut with tension, as every step weighed upon me. I wasn't sure if I was ready to face him; there was just no more time left for doubts. The course of events that would ensue would seal my family's fate. and maybe even my own.As we emerged from the final tunnel, the entrance to Lucian's lair loomed ahead: a dark fortress built into the side of the cavern wall. Shadows seemed to gather around it, twisting and curling like smoke. A shiver crawled down my spine as we approached, but I forced myself to stay calm. We had a plan, even if it was full of risks.We burst through the main entrance, our magic flaring to life as we fought our way inside. The clash of spells and clash of swords was heavy in the air as Lucian's forces swarmed us. I fought beside Damien, my heart r
"We have to go after them!"Still, the last words of Damien were echoing in my ears when I finally found a moment to slip from the crowd. I pounded inside my chest, not just from the fight, but from the turmoil inside me-from Owen's betrayal-but something clanged furiously in my head. The storm at my center tore me asunder.Down a catwalk, I came to a small alcove where the darkness just about ate up any light. The cool stone walls bit into my back as I leaned against them trying to calm my breathing and the thoughts that raced through my mind. Just as I closed my eyes, a voice whispered from behind me in the dark."You look troubled, Abigail."My eyes flew open, and in that instant, my pulse shot up as finally the man stepped out of the shadows. The air seemed to have grown cold with his presence, his eyes shining with both mirth and something darker."What do you want?" I asked, trying not to let my voice show the shaking inside me.He leaned his head, lips curling into a thin s
"Make your choice."The lieutenant's voice continued to ring in my mind, even as I ran wildly through the tunnels, my breathing rough. My heart pounded in my chest, and for one wild moment, the dark temptation of his offer pressed upon me. Betray Serafine and the pack… save myself. It was a coward's choice, a traitor's path. But a small part of me, the part of me that had doubted whether I was strong enough to protect them-whispered that maybe it could be our chance. No, I told myself sharply. I couldn't let my mind go there. I pushed it away and refocused on finding the others. I would never betray my family no matter how bad things got.Rounding a corner, I nearly collided with Damien. Relief danced across his face to see me, yet was speckled with urgency. "Daniel, thank the Moon you're here. We need to regroup—Lucian's forces are closing in fast."I nodded and fell into step beside him as we sprinted down the tunnel. The sounds of far-off fighting got louder with every step.
The earth around me opened with so much fierceness, a low rumbling that seemed to tear the very earth asunder.Before I could even turn, the ground had split, and I was tumbling into chaos. I landed on hard earth, the impact knocking the air from my lungs. It was all chaos, dust, falling rocks, the sound of distant shouting echoing off cavern walls. As I struggled to my feet, the dust began to settle and my eyes adjusted to the dim light filtering down from above.I froze, the image around me blurring as my mind tried to wrap itself around what was happening. We fell into some sort of large underground chamber, ancient and hauntingly beautiful. Strange symbols carved into the stone walls glowed with a silvery tint of light, unlike anything I had ever seen before. It was a relic left behind by some lost, magical civilization, long forgotten by the world above.But it was what was at the center of the room that took my breath away, there was some sort of pedestal, and on top of th
"Mom!"My own voice is returned in the darkness and the storm pounds until I feel the edge of exhaustion. The darkness courses through my body, shaking me to the core, threatening to swallow me whole in its depths. I pulled myself together, trying until I was suddenly aware that the air had shifted. The temperature drops, a coldness running down my spine. I sense him before I see him-Lucian.Lucian emerges from whirling shadows, stepping forward. Something authoritative in his figure, something coldly calm about the manner in which he advances through the chaos erupting in the air around us, draws my gaze irresistibly his way. Gleaming dark eyes fasten on me, a cold dread rising up in my chest. He raises a hand, and in but a gesture, the whirling storm around me begins to settle, as if even magic I struggle to grasp bends to his will."Enough of this, Abigail," he says smoothly, tone laced with a command. "Stop struggling with the man. You waste your breath on one not even worth
"This is my fight now."I can feel the weight of those words as I unleash the magic inside me, channeling everything I have into this strange man who surprisingly was as strong or perhaps stronger than I am. The air crackles and hums, vibrating with energy that seems to move with time to my heartbeat. I watch as his expression changes, his eyes widening in surprise. Then I feel something else, a shift deep inside, a change that isn't altogether my own.I feel some strength gathering within me, and in an instant, it runs hard through my veins. The energy suddenly surges and explodes inside me like a continuing storm ready to tear me apart. With each surge, it becomes so much stronger than the one before and I am fighting hard to keep it inside me. My hands are shaking terribly, and my breathing is reduced. With a sense of anticipation, I realize that I could be losing this battle not to this man in front of me but to myself.Stay back!" I scream, but it sounds more like I'm plea
"Do you feel that? What is this?"The words echo in my mind as I step into the clearing,the chaotic power, like a hurricane, surrounds me. I followed my mother for quite a long time when the air changed, it tugged at me begging me to follow her to this place before it was too late.Now, from behind the scenes, I finally see before me the scene of Serafine standing in front of the mysterious man who had set into action so much pain and manipulation, The air is really crackling with tension, and the dark magic wraps them like a cover."Let her go!" I scream, my voice carrying across the clearing. The weight of my power surges forward inside me, tightening against the reins of my control. I don't think, I act.They both turn to me then, surprised across the man's face. "You!" he exclaims, his composure cracking for a moment. "What are you doing here?"I move forward, my veins coursing with determination and fear. "I felt your presence," I say, locking eyes with him. "I knew you we
"We have to keep running until there's no other choice but to fight."With every step, it beats in my chest, fighting my way through the thick underbrush of the forest, placing distance between myself and chaos at the stronghold. The darkness wraps around me. My mind races with thoughts of all that has brought me to this moment in life. The weight of the world is held on my shoulders and with it, the balance of my family's fate.Before me, I see the bush he told me to meet him at, with every step my pulse quickens. The thought of his wicked grin seems to flash before my mind a chilling reminder of my bargain struck. A deep breath is taken and in it, I steady myself for what is about to be. Strong, though frightened, I must be.Finally reaching the place, it is bathed in moonlight, the tall grass gently swaying with the wind of the night. There he was, waiting to see me with that annoying smirk, arms folded at his chest, as if the world belongs to him. "Serafine," he calls, with
