Amara’s POV

The first thing I felt was the heat—a slow, languid warmth radiating against my back, steady as a heartbeat. Sunlight filtered through the gauzy curtains, painting golden streaks across the tangled sheets and the arm draped possessively over my waist. Jaxon’s breath tickled the nape of my neck, his lips grazing my shoulder even in sleep.

His fingers, calloused from years of wielding blades, were interlaced with mine, a rough contrast to the tender way he held me. I didn’t dare move, afraid to shatter the fragile peace of this moment. Here, in the quiet, there were no wars to fight, no secrets gnawing at my ribs. Just his scent—cedar and smoke—and the safety of his body curved around mine.

“You’re thinking too loud,” Jaxon murmured, his voice gravelly with sleep. His hand slid up my side, leaving a trail of fire beneath the thin fabric of my camisole.

I smirked, tilting my head to glance at him. His storm-gray eyes were half-lidded, his dark hair tousled from my fing

    Amara’s POV We were still a cozy mess of limbs and blankets when Jaxon stirred again, stretching like a cat. “Alright,” he groaned, “if we’re doing this whole ‘four in a bed’ thing, I call dibs on the blanket.”“You’re literally already hogging it,” Ryder grumbled, tugging the sheet toward himself.Caden sat beside me, sipping his coffee like the calm center of the storm. “If you two start a tug-of-war, you’re both getting kicked out.”I bit back a laugh, hiding my smile in my mug. “You all act like brothers.”Jaxon grinned. “Hot, sexy, emotionally scarred brothers who happen to be in love with the same gorgeous girl?”I choked on my coffee, and Caden patted my back with a chuckle. Ryder rolled his eyes but smirked. “He’s not wrong.”“You guys are ridiculous,” I mumbled, cheeks burning.“But you love it,” Ryder said, leaning over to kiss the tip of my nose. “You love us.”I didn’t answer right away. I looked at each of them—Jaxon, still smirking with tousled hair and sleep-heavy eyes

    Amara’s POVThe weight of the world seemed to lift with the deepening silence of the night. Outside our window, the sprawling academy grounds were bathed in the ethereal glow of the full moon, casting long, silver shadows from the ancient trees. The usual cacophony of nocturnal creatures was muted, a distant hum that only emphasized the stillness within our room. Caden, ever the anchor, was curled spoon-like behind me, his arm a comforting weight across my waist, his breath warm against the nape of my neck. At the foot of the expansive bed, Jaxon was a study in unconscious relaxation, limbs splayed out, a soft snore escaping his lips as he somehow managed to pilfer a significant portion of the shared blanket.But Ryder… Ryder was a different kind of presence in the quiet darkness.I felt the subtle brush of his fingertips against the back of my hand, a slow, deliberate caress, as if he were trying to tether himself to the present. His touch was feather-light, yet it resonated through

    Amara’s POV We stayed in that embrace for a long time, my head resting against Ryder’s chest, listening to the steady thrum of his heart beneath me. His hands traced slow, absent-minded circles on my back while my fingers toyed with the collar of his shirt.The world outside was hushed, the car windows fogged with our shared heat and secrets, but inside, everything felt perfectly clear.“I missed this,” I whispered.Ryder tilted his head down, brushing his lips over my temple. “Yeah?”I nodded against him. “I missed you like this. Just us. No noise. No chaos.”He pulled back just enough to meet my eyes, and his voice was rough with emotion. “You still have me, Amara. Even when I’m being a jealous ass.”I smiled. “Especially then.”He groaned softly, dropping his head to my shoulder. “You’re trouble.”“You love it,” I teased.“I really, really do.”He cupped my face again and kissed me—this time slower, like he was trying to memorize the shape of my mouth. My hands gripped the collar

    Caden’s POV The morning had been a delightful storm of laughter and spilled coffee. Her playful jabs during breakfast, the way her eyes crinkled at the corners when she teased me – it was a stark contrast to the heavy silence that used to define my mornings. Even the usual competitive energy between the pack members felt lighter, somehow infused with her easygoing presence. The day unfolded with a comfortable rhythm, punctuated by her bright smiles and the soft brush of her hand against mine whenever we were close.But it was in the quiet of the late afternoon that I found her, a vision of serene beauty that stole my breath away. She stood in the backyard, the manicured lawn soft beneath her bare feet, her face tilted towards the heavens. The setting sun painted the sky in strokes of fiery orange, melting into soft lavender, and the golden light caught in the strands of her hair, turning it into a halo. She looked utterly at peace, a part of the earth and sky in equal measure, and a

    Amara’s POV The quiet at the overlook deepened, a comfortable hush that settled over the valley as the last vestiges of daylight surrendered to the encroaching night.

His arms were pillowed behind his head, his gaze fixed on the celestial display unfolding above. There was a quiet intensity in his eyes as he traced constellations only he seemed to recognize. I sat beside him, my knees drawn up to my chest, the denim of my jeans rough against my skin. I found myself stealing glances at him, drawn to the way the faint moonlight sculpted the sharp angles of his jaw and the slight furrow in his brow as he concentrated on the stars.

    Amara’s POV The drive back with Caden was a bubble of quiet contentment. The stars had begun to fade behind the encroaching city lights, but the memory of them, and the feeling of Caden’s arms around me under their vast expanse, lingered like a warm embrace.

The rapid thud of footsteps echoed from inside, and then Jaxon was there, framed in the doorway, arms crossed dramatically over his chest.“Finally,” he declared, his voice a theatrical mix of relief and annoyance. “I was this close,” he pinched his fingers together with a tiny sliver of space between them, “to unleashing my inner tracker and dragging you two back by your ears.

  • The Triplet Alpha's Outcast    Behind The Mask

    Amara’s POV The familiar scent of ink and paper filled the air as I pushed open the heavy doors of the school library. The quietness here was a reprieve from the chaos of the hallways, where girls swooned and giggled, whispering excitedly about the triplet brothers. Ryder, Jaxon, and Caden had enrolled in my high school a few days ago, and their arrival had turned my world upside down. Despite everything we had been through together, I couldn’t shake the tension that followed me like a shadow. The triplets were used to being the center of attention, their powerful presence drawing people toward them like moths to a flame. The girls at school were no exception. They fawned over the brothers as if they were celebrities. But I hated it. I hated the way the girls hung on their every word, and more than that, I hated the way they always seemed to find me, even when I tried to stay far away. Today, I had a free period and all I wanted was to escape to the library, bury myself in books,

  • The Triplet Alpha's Outcast    I hate them.

    Amara's POV The rest of the day blurred into a haze of pain. My tears had dried, but the ache in my chest only grew heavier with every passing second. The stares, the whispers, the laughter—it all haunted me, replaying in my mind like a broken record. Every time I thought of Ryder’s mocking voice and the way Jaxon and Caden had laughed at my misery, my hatred for them deepened. I hated them. I hated how they made me feel so small. How they made me feel like I didn’t belong, even after everything we’d been through. The weight of their cruelty crushed me, and all I wanted to do was disappear. I felt dirty, humiliated. My face was sticky with tears and my throat raw from holding back sobs all day. Needing a moment of privacy, I decided to head to the girls' bathroom to wash my face and try to collect myself. Maybe if I splashed some cold water on my face, I could numb the pain—if only for a little while. I pushed open the bathroom door and stepped inside, the cold, sterile smell o

Jaxon’s car ride, Ryder’s warmth, and now Caden’s soft kiss in the library—all of it tangled inside me like a storm with no end.I dropped my bag by the front door and sighed, running a hand through my hair.“Rough day?” Ryder’s voice floated from the kitchen.I turned to see him leaning against the counter, a soda in hand, hair messy, sleeves rolled up. He looked like sin and safety all in one breath.“You could say that,” I muttered, stepping into the kitchen.Before I could even process it, he set his drink down and pulled me into a hug—arms wrapping tight around my waist, face buried in my neck.“You smell like Caden,” he murmured, voice low. There was no anger in his tone. No bitterness. Just quiet hurt.I stiffened.He pulled back slightly, eyes dark and unreadable. “I know he kissed you.”I bit my lip. “Ryder…”“I’m not mad,” he said, brushing his fingers along my cheek. “Not really.

And too many unspoken words between four people tangled in something too big to name.After grabbing my smoothie from Jaxon and kissing Ryder goodbye on the cheek—though he tried to pull me back into bed—I followed Jaxon out to his car.He was already leaning against the passenger side, sunglasses low on his nose, smirk firmly in place.“Took you long enough, princess,” he teased, opening the door for me like the cocky show-off he was.“Sorry,” I said, brushing past him. “My other boyfriend was being clingy.”He let out a low chuckle, shutting the door behind me. “Mm. So it’s like that now, huh?”I looked at him as he slid into the driver’s seat. “Like what?”He shot me a sidelong glance, something dark and playful dancing in his eyes. “Like you’ve accepted that you’re ours. All of us.”I didn’t answer.Mostly because I was
