Willow’s POV
“Mate!” I heard a loud growl which startled me from my slumber. My gaze met with that of the triplets who were staring at me intensely, unlike they had ever done before. Asher slowly approached me with Aiden and Axel hot on his tail.
“Mine!” they growled again. I thought I had heard them wrongly the first time but my ears weren’t playing tricks on me. I heard right. Everyone was well aware, that their birthday was today. A huge preparation that I had helped with was in progress. They had gotten their wolves and I was their mate. My heart was pounding heavily. I scooted over on my little bed when I saw them approaching.
Asher’s hands gently caressing my thigh made my thoughts all jumbled together. I couldn’t bear to look them all in the eye. It should be a crime for people to look so perfect. Aiden raised my chin up with his hands. As soon as my gaze met with their ocean-blue eyes, I melted.
“W…we shouldn’t be doing this,” I stuttered. They never liked me. If the Alpha and Luna someone like me had laid with their sons, I would be in so much trouble.
“Who says we can’t? You are our mate and we can do whatever we like,” Axel replied in a husky tone. All rationality flew out of the window. The truth was that I had a huge crush on them for a very long time and now I was their mate? It felt like a dream come through. Asher began to take off my nightgown. I knew what they wanted from the look on their faces and I wanted them too. I always had. When their lips fell on mine, I felt on top of the world.

The following morning, I woke up with a smile on my face. I glanced around but the Thane brothers were gone. My smile faltered. I was a bit disheartened but I understood they had to get ready for their birthday party. My body ached from last night's activities but I was happy. My insides were filled with more joy than I could fathom because my first time had been with the triplets just like I had always dreamed of.
“You lazy girl! Isn’t it time to get to work already!” The loud voice jolted me from my reverie. It was the head maid. If I wasted any more time, I would get seriously punished. I got on my feet and threw on my clothes, I folded the bloodied sheet from last night and threw them among my things in the cramped basement after making a mental note to wash them as soon as I was done with my chores. I rushed out of the room combing my hands through my hair.
“Your royal highness, I see you’ve decided to grace us with your presence,” the head maid sneered.
I stopped abruptly looking down at my feet. “I’m s…sorry…”
“Keep your useless apologies to yourself. I have a party to plan and I want to start on a good note. I’m not about to let you ruin my mood,” she declared. I nodded.
“Well then, why are you standing there shaking like a leaf? Get your filthy self out of my sight before I change my mind!” she yelled at me. I rushed out of her presence and made my way to the kitchen. I still felt a little sore from yesterday. It was quite a wild night and I was tired but I wasn’t about to tell anyone that. I kept glancing around in search of the triplets but I didn’t catch sight of them anywhere.
“Oh look, the fatty is here,” A maid like myself called out to the rest. They all wiped their hands with towels and dropped the work they were doing before I arrived.
“Get to work,” she muttered with a smirk. I glanced at the pile of dishes and my jaw dropped.
“I can’t possibly finish all of that,” I mumbled.
“Do we look like we care? Put your weight and strength to good use,” she retorted. She bumped her arm into mine before walking off. The rest followed after her leaving me all alone. One would think that after years of being called words like fat, pig, and overweight, I would begin to get used to it. I never did. It still hurt each time. I made my way towards the dishes before the head maid would find me once again.
Everyone looked down on me in the pack. I was treated worse than an omega even by the omegas themselves. There wasn’t a day I wasn’t reminded that I was still alive thanks to the Alpha’s generosity. My father was the beta to the Alpha, that was until he was accused of betraying the Alpha, planning a coup to take his position. My father was labeled a traitor along with my mother. They were both killed as punishment for their crimes while I was spared. I was asked to be grateful that I wasn’t killed just like them.
However, my life was worse than hell. I got bullied by everyone. I’ve always been bullied in school since I was a child because of my weight. It only got worse after my parents died. I was bullied in school and in the pack house. The only place where I could be safe and have time for myself was my little room which was the basement. I even had thoughts of running away after high school because I couldn’t take it anymore. But all that was about to change. The triplets were my mates now. I never thought I would find my mate but now I have and it was the best feeling in the world.
As soon as I was done with the dishes, I began to clean the pack house. Everyone was busy preparing the pack house for the triplet’s eighteenth birthday. The house was bustling with activities but I still hadn’t seen them anywhere. I didn’t dare go towards their room. I knew we had a connection now but it still wasn’t possible. There was a huge difference in our status. They were the Alpha’s sons while I was the daughter of a traitor worse than an Omega. The moon goddess brought us together. I was sure they were going to accept me as their mate in front of everyone just like the custom demanded.
By the time I was done with cleaning, it was getting dark and the guests were beginning to arrive. I rushed towards my room and took a shower. I wore my favorite dress, styled my hair, and even applied makeup on my face. I smiled brightly into the mirror. If they were going to accept me as their mate in front of everyone, I had to look the part.
I walked outside to the garden and it had the most beautiful decoration I had ever seen. I glanced around in awe till I bumped into someone. The glass she was holding fell from her hands.
“I’m sorry. It was a mistake,” I hurriedly apologized. I recognized her because she was part of the students who bullied me in school.
“Your existence is a mistake! How dare you touch me!” she yelled drawing the attention of others. I knew where this was headed and I didn’t have any time for that. All I wanted was to meet with the triplets and as the goddess would have it, my gaze met with theirs, just a little distance away. I smiled and walked towards them. I was well aware of everyone’s gaze on me.
“What do you think you are doing?” Asher’s cold tone stopped me in my steps. The smile disappeared from my face. There was something wrong. This wasn’t how they looked at me during the middle of the night.
“Seems like the pig has a crush,” someone called out in a sing-song voice. They all laughed at me.
“Just take a look at her clothes. She looks like a clown,” another added. I looked towards the triplets and they had smiles on their faces. I couldn’t say a word. Everyone’s attention was on me and I was here for their amusement.
“Has she no shame? Traitor daughter!”
“How dare she set her eyes on our future Alphas? Disgusting piece of shit!”
Their words hurt me but I was more interested in what was going on with the triplets. I took in a deep breath and made up my mind to say something. Just as I opened my mouth to speak, Axel beat me to it.
“You think you are worthy of being with us? Do you think you are worthy of being our mates? That’s not possible. We will never accept a mate such as yourself. I Axel Thane…”
“I Aiden Thane…”
“And I Asher Thane, We all reject you as our mate. Your place is in the gutter like you belong. Not with us,” they declared coldly. Their words hit me like a ton of rocks. I couldn’t believe my ears. Someone pushed me to the ground and I fell with a thud bruising my knee. I winced.
“Mates? Does she really think she’s your mate? What a joke!” Someone laughed throwing their drink at me.
“B…but I thought..,” I stuttered with tears in my eyes. I thought we had something special going on.
“B…but…but,” someone mimicked me and they laughed again.
“Hey Nina, you wanted some pork earlier. Why wait for the pig to arrive when we have her?” Axel asked pointing towards me and they all laughed. Their laughter echoed in my ears as more drinks were poured on me. My heart was shattered into a million pieces. Dreams come through? More like a nightmare.
Chapter 114Plans on the WrongJason's POVThe sound of my boots echoed in the empty hallway as I made my way to the dungeon. Each step felt heavier than the last, but I kept moving. My chest burned with anger, humiliation, and something I couldn’t quite name. Asher’s words from earlier replayed in my head, each one sharper than the last. “Illegitimate bastard.” I clenched my fists, the memory of his taunt making my blood boil. He had said it so casually like it was a fact everyone knew but dared not voice. Not in front of our father. He wasn't scared of the old man and I wondered how he was able to do that. Knowing that my mother had been nothing to my father unlike the rest of the woman in his life hurt me deeply. It was almost like I had made a mistake and for years I thought that. Not until my father had reached out to me to claim me as his son out of the blues. Asher had mentioned that father was not someone who does anything without something else behind it. But Asher had
Chapter 113The Ultimate FusionWillow’s POVThe first thing I felt was the pressure. The weight of the earth above me pressed against my chest, making every shallow breath a struggle. I opened my eyes to total darkness, the realization sinking in that I was still buried. For a split second, panic clawed at my mind. My instincts screamed to thrash and claw my way out, but I forced myself to remain calm. I wasn’t the same Willow who had been laid in this grave three days ago. Closing my eyes, I drew in what little oxygen I could and reached out with my mind. Before the moon realm, connecting to anyone via mind-link had always been a challenge for me, requiring intense focus and effort. Now, it felt as natural as breathing. Lina. Her response was immediate, her voice clear and steady in my head. "Willow! You’re awake! Hold tight; we’re coming to get you." I could feel the ripples of excitement emanating from her wolf and I could only imagine how worried she must have been before
Chapter 112Truth UnfoldingAsher's POVRegret settled deep in my chest, as heavy as a mountain. I stared at the cold stone floor of the dungeon, my arms bound tightly behind me. The air was thick with despair and the coppery scent of blood. I should never have come here. My impulsive decision to confront my father had not only put my life at risk but had also escalated his wrath to levels I hadn’t anticipated. Six-pack members were already dead. I flinched as another agonized scream echoed through the chamber, cutting through the silence like a blade. My father, Alpha Thane, stood tall and imposing, his silver-streaked hair glowing in the dim torchlight. Beside him was Elana, his loyal, sadistic partner-in-crime, a twisted grin etched on her face. Each scream ended the same way, an abrupt, eerie silence that signified another life extinguished. “Asher,” my father said, his voice dripping with mockery as he turned to me, “do you enjoy the sound of their suffering? It’s all bec
Chapter 111Ethereal Willow's POVI woke slowly, the weight of the world lifting from me as I blinked open my eyes. Except...these weren’t my eyes. They were sharper, keener. The colors around me were dazzling, the world a canvas of ethereal light and shifting hues. Streaks of gold, blue, and lavender rippled through the air, blending into shapes and patterns that seemed alive. I tried to move and realized I wasn’t in my human form. My paws pressed against the soft ground beneath me, my silver fur shimmering like liquid moonlight. My wolf senses were heightened beyond anything I’d ever experienced. The air hummed with energy, and every sound and scent was more vibrant than I thought possible. Where was I? Looking around, I realized this wasn’t the world I knew. This place wasn’t earth, it was something else entirely. It hit me like a thunderclap: this was the Moon Realm. The stories I’d heard whispered since I was a pup, were the eternal resting place for wolves like me, where
Chapter 110Held HostageAxel’s POVI hadn’t slept. Not properly. The grave where we’d buried Willow loomed in my mind all night like an unspoken challenge. Every time I closed my eyes, I imagined her struggling beneath the earth, reaching out, needing us, and we weren’t there. The hours dragged by and even the soothing light of the moon did little to quell the storm inside me. The others didn’t seem much better. Aiden stayed awake sharpening his knife, over and over, his face an unreadable mask. Kingston sat with his back against the oak tree, pretending to be calm, but his eyes betrayed him, they flicked toward the burial site every few minutes. And Lina? She hovered like a shadow at the edge of the clearing, muttering under her breath as if running through a list of problems I wasn’t privy to. I was desperate for movement, a sign, anything to indicate that Willow was okay. “Lina,” I said sharply, louder than I intended. She stopped pacing, turning to me with an annoyed expr
Chapter 109The Beginning of the EndAsher’s POVThe firelight flickered in the corner of my vision, but my eyes stayed locked on the shallow grave. None of us spoke. We’d all decided to stay outside, camped out beside the ritual spot where Willow lay buried under the moonlight. Each of us carried a weight that grew heavier with every passing second. Daniel and Ella had woken up earlier to ask for their mother. They were asleep now but it had taken a lot of convincing to get them to believe that Willow went to get them something and had not been captured by their father.Axel paced a few feet away, his boots crunching against the frost-covered grass. Aiden sat cross-legged, absently tracing patterns in the dirt with a stick. Kingston leaned against a tree, his arms crossed, watching the grave like a sentinel. I was seated on the ground, knees pulled to my chest, trying not to let the gnawing worry consume me. What if something went wrong? What if she needed us and couldn’t call ou
Chapter 108The Moon RitualLina's POV The fire crackled low in the hearth, casting flickering shadows on the walls of the living room. Everyone had gone to bed hours ago, but sleep was the last thing on my mind. My hands clenched the edges of the blanket draped over me, the voices of doubt from earlier replaying in my head.“Half-baked plans,” Axel had said. “Do you even know what you’re doing, Lina?” Asher’s voice, though softer, was just as sharp.It wasn’t the first time they had questioned my abilities as a wolf seer, but today, it had cut deeper than ever. I wasn’t just a part of this pack, I was their guide, their protector. To hear them doubt me made me feel smaller than I ever had before. I leaned forward, staring into the embers as if they held the answers I sought. The truth was, I didn’t have all the answers, not yet. But I would. I threw the blanket aside and rose from the couch, determination swelling in my chest. If they didn’t trust me to lead, I would prove to
Chapter 107A Call Out Willow’s POVThe house was unnervingly quiet, the kind of silence that made every creak of the floorboards and whisper of the wind feel amplified. The faint light of the television flickered across the room, illuminating the tense faces of those around me. It felt like we were waiting for something inevitable, something we couldn’t stop even if we wanted to. Asher sat closest to the TV, his arms crossed and his jaw set in a tight line. Aiden leaned forward, elbows on his knees, his usual calm veneer cracking under the weight of the situation. Axel placed near the window, restless energy radiating from him like a storm waiting to break. Lina and I sat together on the couch, her steady presence a comfort I didn’t know I needed. We were waiting for the broadcast. Waiting for Thane. The children were upstairs, blissfully unaware of the danger looming over us. I envied their innocence, and their ability to sleep soundly while the rest of us were drowning in u
Chapter 106Warrior LunaWillow’s POVThe silence in the house felt heavier than the walls pressing in around us. Everyone seemed lost in their own thoughts, weighed down by the uncertainty of what was to come. As the day dragged on, I found myself sitting cross-legged on the floor with Lina in a quiet corner of the house. Her eyes were intense, her voice steady, but her words were like sharp arrows aimed at my heart. “You know this isn’t something you can avoid, Willow,” Lina said, her tone leaving no room for argument. “The longer you wait, the stronger Alpha Thane becomes. He’s not just going to stop at the pack. He’s aiming for complete dominance. You heard him, he won't stop, once he was down here, he would be moving on while Jason took over from him.” I sighed, leaning my head back against the cool wall. “You make it sound so simple like I can just wake up one day and decide I’m ready to fight an evil Alpha who’s backed by dark magic. Lina, I don’t even know what I’m doing.
