The first thing I noticed when I turned away from the door, was Peter sitting on his sofa, and tapping his foot frantically on the floor. He was livid too. But if he was here alone, it meant that Laura was with the three Lycan boys in the clinic. He left her alone?

“She had demanded we leave, when we…” Diana stuttered, having noticed my expression, and ruffled her hair, before looking at her father.

I greeted Peter then, and marched to a seat and sat down. “What is happening? How are they here? Why did Laura accept to treat him? Why are you not with her?”

Peter wasn't forthcoming with answers. He was still stewing in so much anger that he couldn’t speak.

I looked to Diana for answers.

“Some minutes after we arrived home, mother received a call from the Queen…” Diana started, coming to sit beside me. “She had mentioned that the Lycan Prince had requested for mother’s services. She had insisted that since he was a special guest in the community, there was no choice but to obey

  • Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets   treason

    ADAMI was still frozen when Noah’s words landed. The room seemed to still tilt, reality folding in on itself as if the truth I had just uncovered had loosened the seams of the world. My chest was tight, my thoughts colliding, overlapping, refusing to settle. Sage was my Maya. Maya was Dora. My wolf paced restlessly inside me, a low, savage satisfaction rolling through him like thunder. I told you.I barely heard him.She was here.After all the blood, the years, the searches, the ghosts—I had my mate back.The realization hit me all over again, sharp and blinding. Maya. The innocent girl I had tainted with experiences she hadn’t known how to name, had become Dora—who had looked at me like I was the embodiment of everything she despised—and finally had become Sage.Sage, who met my authority with sarcasm and fire, who had bent the laws of magic like they were suggestions.How did someone become that? How had she alone become three women with different dispositions, different fire?

    ADAMI sat beside the bed and watched her breathe.The room had gone quiet after the priest and doctor left, the incense fading into something softer, something almost intimate. The only sound was Sage’s steady inhale and exhale, the faint rustle of sheets when she shifted. I lowered myself slowly onto the chair near the bed, then found I couldn’t stay there. Restlessness drove me closer, until I was perched on the edge, elbows on my knees, hands clasped so tightly my knuckles whitened.Could it be? Could my wolf be right all this time? The question slid through my mind like a blade, fanning the flames of restlessness within me.Could it be? Could it really be? Oh gods…Could Sage be the one I had been circling all these years without knowing it? Could she be the answer to a longing that had never truly gone quiet, no matter how hard I tried to bury it beneath duty and conquest and crowns?My gaze traced her face—the curve of her cheek, the faint crease between her brows even in sl

    ADAMI watched them work on her as if I were already losing her.The priest murmured prayers under his breath, fingers glowing faintly as he traced sigils in the air above Sage’s body. While the doctor moved with efficient calm, checking vials and bandages, checking her pulse, her breathing, her pupils. Magic and medicine mingled in my room, the air thick with incense and herbs, sharp enough to sting the back of my throat.I paced. Back and forth, from the foot of the bed to the window, then back again. My boots thudded softly against the polished floor, the sound grounding me just enough to keep me from tearing something apart. Or someone.She lay too still.Her face was pale against the dark sheets, lashes resting against her cheeks, lips parted just slightly. If not for the steady rise and fall of her chest, I might have thought her gone.And yet, even unconscious, there had been that smile.The memory of it gnawed at me. Before her eyes had fluttered shut—she had smiled at me, af

  • Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets   Trap Set

    SAGEI was dimly aware of Adam before I even opened my eyes, before his arms came around me, before his voice reached me—raw, frantic, cutting through the ringing emptiness in my head as he shouted my name like it was a lifeline. Strong arms tightened around me, hauling me up before my knees could even think of giving out. I felt him pull me against his chest, felt the way his grip tightened, even more, possessively, violently, as though daring anyone to come closer.“Don’t touch her,” he snarled at someone. “Get back. All of you.”I smiled faintly to myself, even as exhaustion dragged at my bones. He really was exactly where I wanted him.Adam carried me as if I weighed nothing, his strides long and purposeful. I heard him bark orders as we moved—telling them to go home, telling them they were safe now, telling them that I had completed my side of the bargain. His voice carried authority, certainty, and the unmistakable thread of relief.Smug satisfaction curled through me, warming

    ADAMI woke up with a shout lodged in my throat.The dream clung to me like rot.Sage stood before me, cloaked in darkness so thick it swallowed the world. She pointed at me, her mouth stretching into a laugh that echoed too loudly, too wrong. Then she was Maya—bleeding, broken, slipping through my fingers as I begged her to stay. Then Dora. Always Dora. Her eyes wide with betrayal as my hands closed around a blade already buried in her chest.They all died in my hands. Again.I jolted upright, breath tearing out of me, my heart slamming against my ribs like it wanted out. Sweat slicked my skin. My fingers dug into the sheets as I tried to orient myself, tried to remember where I was, when I was.I dragged a hand through my hair, tugging hard enough to ground myself. That was when I realized that I was alone. Where was she?The space beside me was cold. Empty. No warmth. No scent. Like we hadn’t even happened. How… Did she erase the scents with magic? Why?Did she not want the matebo

  • Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets   not mates

    So this was what it meant to be intimate with your mate. I opened my eyes slowly, languidly, as though my body had forgotten urgency.Pleasure still hummed beneath my skin, a low, satisfied thrum that made even breathing feel indulgent. My limbs were heavy, loose, pleasantly sore, as if every muscle had been stretched and claimed and then carefully set back into place.I turned my head slightly, the sheets whispering against my skin, and a soft sound escaped me before I could stop it—half sigh, half memory.Heat curled low in my belly again, uninvited but welcome.The intimacy replayed itself without mercy. Adam’s strength. His relentless focus. The way his restraint had finally shattered, the way he had said my name like it was both a prayer and a curse. It hadn’t dulled with time. If anything, it had sharpened. Being lifemates had made it worse—better—more consuming than it had ever been when I had been Maya.My breath hitched as the memory crested, and I pressed my lips together,
