Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 67
Aiden I stood in the hallway, watching as Selene unpacked her things, her old room slowly coming back to life around her. It felt surreal, like stepping into a memory that had long since faded, but was now being forced back into focus. She moved around the room with a certain ease, as if no time had passed at all, like she hadn’t been gone for months and everything was still the way it had been before. But things had changed—I had changed.She glanced over her shoulder, catching me watching her. “What? You’re just going to stand there?” she asked, raising an eyebrow with a hint of a smirk.I didn’t respond immediately. I was still trying to wrap my head around all of this, the fact that she was here again, alive and unpacking as if she planned on staying. I leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, my mind running in circles.Selene turned back to her suitcase, folding a shirt neatly before placing it in the drawer. “Well, I guess it’s my turn to ask questions now,” she said, her v

Valeria The morning air was crisp as I made my way down the hall, lost in my thoughts. Aiden had been doing everything he could to make me comfortable here at Stormclaw, and for the most part, it had been working. But ever since that woman—Selene—had shown up, I felt a tension in the air, one I couldn’t ignore. It wasn’t that I feared her, but I knew she wasn’t here without reason. People didn’t just come back from the dead without some agenda.As I turned the corner, I wasn’t surprised to see her standing there, leaning casually against the wall. Her blonde hair fell in perfect waves down her back, and she had this smug expression on her face like she was waiting for me.“Valeria,” she said, her tone dripping with false sweetness. “I was wondering when we’d have a chance to talk. Alone.”I kept my expression neutral, refusing to rise to whatever bait she was trying to dangle in front of me. “Selene,” I replied, keeping my voice calm, though I could feel the heat simmering just benea

ValeriaThe moonlight streamed through the large windows of the packhouse, casting a soft glow across the room as I sat on the bed. My mind was still reeling from my encounter with Selene earlier in the day. It was hard to shake off the tension her arrival had caused, but I knew I needed to focus on more important things—like Aiden. He had been quiet, his face tight with worry ever since Selene showed up, and I could sense the turmoil brewing inside him.I heard the door creak open and glanced up to see Aiden stepping into the room. His brows were furrowed, his shoulders tense. He had been on edge since our conversation with Selene, and I knew it was eating away at him. He paced the room for a moment before sitting down heavily beside me, running a hand through his hair.“I can’t believe this is happening,” he muttered, his voice low and strained. “Selene… of all people, she shows up now. After all this time, when I thought she was—” He broke off, his jaw clenching as if the words wer

ValeriaSelene took a seat at the dining table, her eyes flicking between Aiden and me with an air of entitlement. The tension in the room was suffocating, a quiet storm building in the spaces between us. I could feel her gaze burning into me as she delicately placed her hands on the table, giving a sweet, mocking smile.“You know, I’ve always found it amusing,” Selene began, her voice light and casual, “how some people think they’re so special just because they’ve been labeled with a title.” Her eyes darted toward me, thinly veiled venom in her tone. “Being called the Luna Queen doesn’t make you royalty, Valeria. It doesn’t change the fact that you’re still… well, let’s just say, inexperienced in a lot of things.”I clenched my hands under the table, willing myself to stay calm. I wasn’t going to let her rattle me, no matter how hard she tried. But her words still stung, especially with Aiden sitting right there. He remained silent, his eyes flicking between us, clearly trying to avo

Valeria The soft rustle of pages turning was the only sound in the library, my eyes scanning the text before me, desperate to uncover anything that might give me some insight into the Nightshade family. I had found the book myself, tucked away in the far corner of the packhouse’s library, one that had piqued my curiosity. It had an old, worn leather cover, its pages yellowed with age, and the scent of dust and parchment filled the air as I flipped through it.The book wasn’t like the others I’d come across; it wasn’t just about history or magical theory—it was a lineage book, a collection of stories and records about the Nightshade family. My heart beat faster with each page I turned. The further I went, the more details I uncovered about the Nightshades’ legacy. They were no ordinary family. This was no mere royal bloodline. This was the family that had been at the center of everything—controlling not just packs, but holding unimaginable power and magic. They weren’t just royalty—t

KadeThe weight of everything pressing down on me was almost unbearable as I walked through the corridors of the Shadowfang packhouse. My mind was still on Valeria—on how much she had been through, how her world had been turned upside down, and how, despite all of it, she was still standing strong. She had gone through so much already, and now she was living with the constant threat of Malachai’s twisted ambition looming over her. I couldn’t help but feel helpless.But I had responsibilities here too. I couldn’t let Shadowfang fall apart while Valeria was away. The pack needed me. The pack needed me.As I walked past the pack’s dining hall, the clinking of silverware and low murmurs of conversation caught my attention. It wasn’t the first time I’d heard this particular voice, but it always grated on my nerves just the same. I paused for a moment, glancing into the room. There, seated at the long dining table, was Mikaela.Her eyes met mine immediately, and the smile that spread across

Kade The night was quiet, too quiet. It had been gnawing at me since the sun had dipped below the horizon, leaving the Shadowfang pack cloaked in uneasy silence. My senses were sharper than usual, every shadow in the packhouse casting doubt, every sound making me tense. Something was coming. I could feel it, like a storm brewing just out of sight, ready to tear everything apart.As I moved through the packhouse, making my usual rounds, I found myself thinking about Valeria—again. She was safe with Aiden, but the distance between us felt like an open wound. I hated being away from her, hated not knowing exactly what she was doing, if she was alright. I knew she was strong, capable, but with Malachai lurking around, I couldn’t shake the fear that something could go wrong. And I wasn’t there to protect her.Shaking off the thought, I kept walking. The weight of my father’s earlier warning still hung over me. “Don’t cross any lines,” he had said, but what did he know about the lines I wa

KadeWhen I opened my eyes, the harsh light of the infirmary made me wince. The smell of antiseptic filled the room, and the dull ache of my injuries reminded me of the fight with Malachai. My chest throbbed with every breath, the bandages tight against my skin, and my head was still foggy from the blood loss. I tried to sit up, but the weight of exhaustion kept me pinned to the bed.“You’re awake,” came a soft voice beside me.I turned my head, and there was Mikaela, sitting in a chair by the bed. Her eyes were red, probably from worry, but there was also something else there—frustration.“Doctor said you’ll be fine,” she added, standing up to pour water into a glass. “But you were lucky. Another few hits from Malachai, and you might not have made it.”I took the glass from her, sipping slowly. My throat was dry, and the cool water was a relief, but I couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling growing in my chest. Malachai had almost killed me, and he was still out there, plotting his next mo

Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 170
Valeria The sun was setting, casting a golden hue over the rolling hills of our land. I stood at the edge of the valley, watching as the horizon stretched out before me, peaceful and calm for the first time in what felt like an eternity. Malachai was gone. The prophecy, the endless fear, and the war that had nearly torn us apart were finally behind us.Yet, as I stood there, I couldn’t help but feel the weight of everything that had happened still lingering in the air. The scars of war were everywhere—our people were still healing, physically and emotionally. The land, once ravaged by battle, was beginning to bloom again, but it would take time before the wounds fully closed.Aiden came up beside me, his presence quiet yet strong. “It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” he said softly, his voice low and thoughtful. “A reminder of what we fought for.”I nodded, feeling the warmth of his words settle into me. “It is. But it still feels surreal.”He didn’t respond immediately, but I could feel the

ValeriaThe battlefield felt like a living, breathing entity of chaos. Bodies clashed, blades rang out in the air, and the ground trembled beneath the weight of war. My heart pounded in time with every step, every breath, as we closed in on Malachai. He was a towering figure in the distance, cloaked in shadows that seemed to stretch into eternity, feeding on the destruction around him.And yet, for the first time since this war began, I felt an odd sense of clarity. I had spent so much of my life fearing the prophecy, its every word haunting my choices and decisions. But now, as we faced the monster who had manipulated us all, I realized something profound—the prophecy wasn’t a binding force. It was a reflection of potential, a set of paths laid out before us, not an inescapable fate.It was always about choice.The roar of the battle faded into the background as I focused on the task ahead. Aiden, Rylan, and Kade flanked me, their presence a constant reminder that I wasn’t alone in t
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 168
ValeriaThe night before the final battle was heavy with anticipation, but as I stood among the gathered forces of our united packs, I felt a quiet resolve settle over me. The stars above us twinkled like distant watchers, indifferent to the war we were about to wage. My heart was steady, though. I had faced impossible odds before, but this time, I wasn’t alone. Aiden, Rylan, and Kade stood with me, their presence a reminder of the strength we’d built together. The pack—our pack—was ready to follow us into whatever hell Malachai had prepared.The wind shifted, carrying the scent of danger on the breeze, a prelude to the battle that awaited us at dawn. I could sense Malachai’s army just beyond the horizon. His power had grown, infecting the land like a spreading disease. Every day we delayed, he became stronger. The prophecy still loomed, a dark shadow hanging over our heads, whispering of betrayal and ruin. But I had made a decision—I wasn’t going to let fear dictate my choices. The o
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 167
ValeriaThe preparations for the ceremony were unlike anything I’d ever imagined for myself. Growing up as an Alpha, I’d always known that duty would take precedence over personal desires. The idea of a grand union or formalizing any bond had always seemed like a distraction, something that could weaken my resolve. Yet here I was, standing before my mates—Aiden, Rylan, and Kade—ready to pledge myself not just as their partner but as a leader who understood the power of unity.I never thought I would reach this point, where personal love and leadership could coexist in harmony. But now, as I stood alongside them, I knew this wasn’t just for me. This was for the pack, for the future we were building together.We had chosen a sacred place in the heart of the forest, where the borders of our packs converged—a symbol of the unity we were about to solidify. As the evening sun cast its golden light through the trees, the air around us buzzed with anticipation. Both packs—mine, Aiden’s Stormc

ValeriaKade’s presence was like a wildfire, unpredictable and consuming, always threatening to pull me out of the rigid control I kept over myself. He had been my constant reminder of the passions I often pushed aside in favor of duty and leadership, and there was no denying the electric connection that sparked between us whenever we were near each other. Yet, despite everything, I had resisted him. Resisted the bond that tied us together, just as I had with Rylan and Aiden.Now, as I stood facing him, feeling the intensity of his gaze, I knew I could no longer run from the truth. He was a part of me, a part of the strength I had yet to fully embrace. And Kade, with all his wildness and fire, knew it too.“Valeria,” he said, his voice low and steady, though there was an undercurrent of emotion there that I couldn’t ignore. “You’ve been keeping me at arm’s length for too long.”I swallowed hard, the truth of his words hitting me deep. I had kept him at a distance. I had feared the par

ValeriaRylan stood beside me, his sharp eyes scanning the map laid out in front of us. Every line of his body radiated confidence, strength, and a sense of calm that had always been a source of comfort for me, especially in times like this. But there was something different now—something between us that had shifted. It wasn’t just the shared battles or the way he had become the glue holding our pack together in my darkest moments. There was a deeper connection, one that I had been resisting for longer than I cared to admit.For so long, I had seen Rylan as my Beta, my trusted second-in-command. His loyalty to me had never wavered, even when I had doubted my own leadership. But now, standing so close to him, I realized that what lay between us went beyond loyalty. It went beyond duty, beyond the bond of pack leadership. The truth was undeniable, no matter how much I had tried to ignore it. He wasn’t just my Beta. He was my mate.Rylan caught me staring and raised an eyebrow, a small s

ValeriaThe moment I saw Aiden approaching, my heart clenched, a swirl of emotions rising to the surface that I had tried to bury for so long. Anger, hurt, relief, and something else—something deeper, something I had been too afraid to name. His steps were measured, careful, as though he was unsure of his place in my world now. And after everything that had happened, I couldn’t blame him.We hadn’t spoken since the fallout, since the day our paths had diverged in opposite directions. I had chosen unity, alliances, and cooperation; he had chosen isolation, dominance, and the old ways. We’d been too stubborn, too set in our beliefs to bend for one another. And now, here we were again, standing on the edge of something new, but the scars of the past lingered.Aiden stopped a few feet away from me, his gaze meeting mine. There was a storm of regret and determination in his eyes, and I couldn’t help but notice how much he had changed. The weight of the prophecy, the battles he had faced al
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 163
ValeriaThe weight of everything that had happened—the rogue attacks, the betrayal, the doubt—pressed down on me like a heavy cloak. I had always prided myself on being strong enough to carry that weight alone, to lead my pack without faltering. But as I sat in my quarters, my head in my hands, I realized that I couldn’t do it by myself.I needed help.It wasn’t an easy realization to come to. My pride had always been a fortress, keeping me standing tall, keeping me independent. But now, that same pride was isolating me, closing me off from those who wanted to help. I had resisted fully embracing the mate bond with Aiden, Rylan, and Kade, thinking it would somehow make me appear weak. I didn’t want anyone to think I couldn’t lead without leaning on them.But the truth was, I needed them.With a deep breath, I pushed myself off the chair and wiped the remnants of tears from my face. I would seek them out. Despite everything that had happened, they were still my mates, and I knew they w
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 162
Valeria The rogue attacks came like a storm—relentless, unpredictable, and brutal. My warriors fought valiantly, but each clash left us weaker, more uncertain. And the worst part? It wasn’t just the enemies outside our borders that I had to contend with; it was the growing unrest within my own pack. Doubt had taken root, spreading like wildfire among my people.I could see it in their eyes as they returned from battle, bloodied and exhausted. They looked to me for answers, for direction. And for the first time in my life, I wasn’t sure if I had any to give.It started as murmurs, whispers in the shadows. Some believed I was too focused on diplomacy, on maintaining alliances and seeking unity when what we needed was brute strength and aggression. Others feared I was leaning too heavily on the prophecy, trusting in an ancient foretelling instead of leading with action.I stood in the center of our war room, staring down at the map that detailed our territory, the areas where the rogue
