One Day To Lyla's Birthday

Lyla POV:

Beneath the lavish canopy of the four-poster bed, my thoughts churned and bubbled, like a potion over a fire. The room was a stark contrast to the grim revelations I'd just endured. It was bathed in a soft, golden hue, with intricately designed wallpapers and elegant furniture that screamed affluence. But the grandeur was lost on me. Instead, the gilded cage only amplified my sense of entrapment.

I paced the room, every footstep echoing my rising panic. There were so many questions - about Noah, about my own mysterious abilities, about why any of this was happening. But in the face of such vast unknowns, the most pressing question became: How do I get out of here?

I cautiously approached the heavy mahogany door, pressing my ear against its cold, polished surface. Hearing nothing, I gently turned the handle. Locked. Not that I was surprised.

I moved to the large windows next, drawing back the curtains. It revealed an expansive view of a forest, the

A little confused…. How did she know his name is Noah? Is she in the woods or the city? I know possibly two different views. And she found out twice that he was a prince, from two different women?

So Noaha wants her as his mate, too. That's about right.

    One Day To Lyla's BirthdayLyla POV:Following Elara through the winding corridors of this dark, foreboding palace, I couldn't help but feel like a mouse in a snake's den. Every step I took on the cold, hard floor echoed through the emptiness, adding to the tightening knot in my stomach. The walls seemed to close in on me, their towering heights a constant reminder that I was no longer within the safe confines of the academy or the comforting proximity of my brothers, Cameron, and Samual. Oh, how I missed their protective auras, their warm smiles that could light up even my darkest days.Elara's heels clicked authoritatively on the floor as we neared a set of large, intricately designed double doors. They swung open as if anticipating our arrival, revealing a dimly lit room adorned with ancient tapestries and dark, heavy furniture. Sitting at the far end, behind an antique desk, was Noah. His eyes, green as a serpent's, locked onto mine."Ah, you've brought her, Elara," he said, his v

    Samuel POV:The tension in the room was thick enough to cut with a knife. I sat beside Cameron, my identical twin, in the office that now seemed more like a war room than an academic space. Across from us were Lars, Kaiden, Aiden, and Fiden—Lyla's brothers. Their faces were drawn, lined with worry and frustration just like ours. Jax, Lyla's former fiancé, looked awkward, uncomfortable, but concern was etched in his features too. Members of the Royal Army stood in rigid formation along the walls, and it felt like the whole room was a pot, ready to boil over. Cameron was the first to speak, his voice razor-sharp."What's the status?"The senior warrior from the Royal Army cleared his throat."We've gone through the surrounding areas, checked every place where she could be, and still, nothing. No traces."It was like a punch to the gut. I clenched my fists, nails digging into the flesh of my palm. The beast within was growling, itching to be let out, to hunt, to find her. I could feel my

    Samuel POV:The air in the Dean's office was thick, almost suffocating, as if the walls themselves could sense our collective anguish. Seated alongside my brothers, my sister, and various members of our royal army, I found it hard to focus. Cameron's jaw was set, a telltale sign of his inner turmoil. Our sister Alana, who had been through a harrowing ordeal, began her recount for the second time. We had asked her to repeat her story, not out of disbelief, but out of desperation to catch any detail we might have overlooked the first time. Alana cleared her throat."As I said, we had formed a protective circle around Lyla. The explosion happened so fast; it was disorienting. They had the element of surprise on their side."Her eyes met mine, haunted and remorseful, as if she could have single-handedly fended off the attack and saved our mate."After the explosion, I remember fighting back. I was outnumbered; we all were. But they were particularly interested in Lyla. They managed to sep

    Lyla POV:Within the walls of this lavish room, I find no comfort. The golden adornments and intricate tapestries are meaningless distractions. No matter how much I try to focus on the artwork or the view from the window, my thoughts relentlessly drift back to Cameron and Samual.An inexplicable pull tugs at the very core of my being, growing stronger with each minute that ticks away. It's as if an invisible force keeps telling me they should be near. Could it be? But the rational part of my mind dismisses the thought almost as quickly as it surfaces. I'm a nobody. How could princes ever be destined for someone like me?The door to my room suddenly swings open, and he walks in—Noah. Dressed impeccably as always, he exudes an aura of enigmatic charm.

    Lyla POV:My heart felt like it was being ripped apart as I absorbed the monstrous nature of Noah's plan. The ritual, the blood, the forced bond—every word he spoke was a dagger into my soul, tearing at the fabric of who I was and who I was meant to be with."So this ritual of yours," I hissed, struggling to keep my voice steady, "it's supposed to replace the fated mate bond I have with Cameron and Samuel, with a forced bond to you?"Noah's eyes gleamed with malevolent delight."Exactly, mi cara. You catch on quick. You see, it's the perfect plan. Your blood is special. You're an Eternal Wolf, with abilities akin to gods—strength, speed, healing—powers that would make anyone invincible. And once we are bonded, that invincibility will extend to me."The revelation that I was an Eternal Wolf shook me to my core. The weight of its significance was overpowering, almost mythical in its implications. And this man, this abomination, wanted to corrupt that?"You're playing with things you don

    Samuel POV:The moment the clock struck midnight, a piercing howl erupted in my mind. It wasn't just a howl; it was a cry, a scream of anguish that shook me to my core. Beside me, Cameron recoiled as if struck, his eyes wide with the same torment I felt."It's midnight," Cameron muttered, his voice tinged with disbelief and something darker, something like despair. "It's her birthday, Sam. It's Lyla's birthday today, and our wolves are—""In agony," I finished for him. "As if a part of them—of us—has been violently ripped away."The room we were in, usually a haven of strategy and planning, seemed to close in on us. The charts and maps spread out across the table faded into insignificance. Faces of council members turned toward us, concern etching their features, but their expressions were a blur. All I could hear was the persistent howl of my wolf, a haunting melody of pain and loss."We know it's Lyla's birthday," I said, my eyes meeting Cameron's. "But why would that cause our wolv

    Cameron POV:As we stood there amidst the charged atmosphere, I could feel everyone's gaze on me. The tension was palpable, like a thick fog that had enveloped the room. Lars and Lyla's triplet brothers looked like they were ready to tear the place apart, their eyes fiery and full of accusation. I glanced at Samuel; he nodded, and I knew it was time to lay our cards on the table."Lars, we found out that Lyla was our fated mate during the first day of the welcoming party at the academy," I began, steadying my voice. "From that moment, we've made sure to gather all the information we could on her, especially after we heard that she was being positioned as Jax's mate.""And you decided to keep that information to yourselves? And make her a part of your plan?" Lars interjected, his voice laced with disbelief and anger."I understand why you would feel that way," Samuel jumped in, "but we didn't manipulate her. We took time to get to know her, to be with her. We showed her that there was

Her hand, delicate yet trusting, was clasped in mine, while Samuel walked beside us, his presence a comforting shadow in the moonlit night."We're nearly there, my heart," I whispered to Lyla.Feeling her anticipation mingling with ours. The path under our feet shifted from the crunch of gravel to the softness of lush grass, signaling our arrival at the heart of our surprise."Can I look now?"Lyla's voice quivered with excitement, her other hand reaching out, perhaps feeling the change in the atmosphere, the music that floated around us like a tender caress."Just a moment longer," I replied.My heart pounding with a mixture of nerves and excitement. Samuel and I had planned this moment with painstaking care, wanting everything to be perfect for her. Guiding her to the center of the clearing, where the gazebo stood adorn

    Lyla POV:As the witch's blade hovered perilously close, a surreal calm washed over me. My heart pounded in my chest, my eyes fixated on Cameron and Samuel, their expressions a tapestry of worry and love. I silently mouthed, "I love you," expecting the sharp sting of betrayal. But instead, a shocking warmth enveloped me – blood, not mine, splashing against my skin.Confusion reigned as I saw Vincent standing defiantly, the witch's heart gruesomely clasped in his hand. He nonchalantly tossed it aside, his eyes locking with mine in a knowing wink. The ritual was broken, the air charged with a mix of disbelief and newfound hope.Noah's enraged voice shattered the moment."Vincent, you traitor!" he screamed, lunging at his brother with a viciousness that chilled my bones.The brothers collided with a force that resonated through the clearing. Their fight was a deadly dance of pent-up rage and familial betrayal. Vincent's every move was precise and calculated, countering Noah's blind fury

    Lyla POV:Vincent's laughter echoed through the room, a sound filled with sinister undertones."Oh, brother, why do you insist on these little charades? Just be honest with her. There's no coronation. Instead, we have a lovely lineup of witches eager to drain every ounce of that precious eternal wolf essence from her," he said, his eyes flashing dangerously.Noah's face remained impassive, but there was a flicker of annoyance in his eyes."Vincent, I've got this under control," he said coolly.I glanced between the two brothers, my heart pounding in my chest. They were planning to kill me, to use me for my power. A surge of anger and determination rose within me. I wouldn't let them. Without warning, I shifted into my wolf form, the transformation enveloping me in a wave of power and strength. My grey fur, streaked with lavender, bristled with energy, and my lavender eyes blazed with defiance.Noah's expression turned to one of shock, then quickly morphed into rage."You think you can

Our position at the vantage point offered a panoramic view of the chaos unfolding below. Alana, my brothers, the coven witches, and I were like sentinels, guarding against the tide of darkness that threatened to engulf us.The sounds of battle were deafening - the clashing of power, the hissing of spells, and the cries of the fallen filled the air. We stood our ground, our magic a beacon of light amidst the encroaching darkness. Each of us fought fiercely, our spells weaving intricate patterns of defense and attack.I could feel the raw energy coursing through me, the power of my eternal wolf stirring within, ready to leap into action. The witches beside me chanted their incantations, their voices rising and falling in a rhythmic cadence that was both haunting and beautiful.

    Samuel POV:Stepping through the dense forest that borders Vampriya, the charged air crackles with tension. Cameron and I tread softly, our senses heightened. The dim moonlight filters through the trees, casting eerie shadows that dance on the forest floor."We need to be smart about this," I whisper to Cameron as we move closer to the outskirts of Vampriya. "No rash moves. We hit them hard and fast, but with precision."Cameron nods, his eyes scanning the darkness."Agreed. The element of surprise is on our side. Let's keep it that way."We huddle with our group of warriors, their faces a mix of determination and nerves. I can feel their energy, pulsing like a heartbeat in the night."Remember, our main goal is to distract and divide their forces," I instruct, my voice low but firm. "We need to create an opening for the main assault team to breach their defenses."One of the warriors, a burly man with a scar across his cheek, steps forward."We won't let you down, your highnesses.

Today was the day we would confront Noah, the day we had been preparing for. Anxiety bubbled inside me, but it was tempered by the resolve that came from the love and support of my mates, Cameron and Samuel.Cameron's arms encircled me from behind, his warmth a comforting presence."You ready for this, my love?" he asked, his breath tickling my ear.I leaned into him, feeling the solid strength of his body."As ready as I'll ever be," I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt.Samuel joined us, his eyes filled with a mixture of concern and determination."We're in this together," he reassured, taking my hand. "Always."Their reassurance fortified me. We were a team, unbreakable in our unity.

    Lyla POV:The quiet of the early morning was a stark contrast to the whirlwind of emotions that had engulfed me the previous night. Sitting by the window, I watched the first light of dawn filter through the leaves, casting dancing shadows on the floor. The warmth of the sun seemed to reach deep within, soothing the turmoil of my thoughts.I was still wrapped in the blanket Cameron and Samuel had tucked me in with, their scent lingering on the fabric, offering a silent comfort. The memories of last night, the intense kisses, the affirmations of love, and the heartfelt conversation with my brothers, all swirled in my head, a mix of joy and poignancy.Lost in thought, I didn’t hear the door open. It was Alana, her bright smile instantly lifting my mood.“Hey there, babe,” she greeted cheerfully. “You seem deep in thought. Everything okay?”I returned her smile“Just reflecting on everything.

Memories of the night before, entwined with Cameron and Samuel, flooded my mind, sending a warm flush through me. The intensity, the love, the unspoken promises we shared – it all felt like a beautiful dream.But as I stretched languidly, the other side of the bed was cold, empty. A twinge of disappointment nudged at me. Where could they be so early in the morning?Just then, the door opened, and both Cameron and Samuel walked in, their presence filling the room with an electrifying energy. My heart skipped a beat as they approached the bed, each wearing an expression that was a mix of tenderness and something more serious, more intense.Cameron leaned in first, his lips meeting mine in a kiss that was both gentle and demanding. The familiar scent of cedarwood and pine engulfed me, grounding me in the moment. His kiss was a reminder of the passion we shared, a prom
