Willow's POV

I glanced at the city skyline from my office window, thinking about how quickly things had shifted since partnering with Triple A Corporation. The deal had undeniably boosted my business, providing the sort of influence and connections I could have only dreamed of before.

Yet, being involved with the three powerful triplet brothers who ran Triple A came with complications I hadn’t foreseen, and I didn’t want anyone else at my company to catch wind of our relationship. This was strictly business, or so I kept telling myself.

The day was wearing on, and Ruby, entered my office, bringing her typical no-nonsense attitude. “Afternoon meeting with the board,” she announced, holding up a planner as if to prove that she had everything under control, just as always.

“Thanks for the reminder,” I replied. “But listen, Ruby, no one here can know about the connection I have with the Triple-A owners. I don't want them to water down my hard work as evidence of having such men in my l

    Chapter 16Hell Hath No FuryAsher’s POVThe phone slipped from my hand as Willow’s words echoed in my mind. A date? She had a date? Fury coursed through me like wildfire, igniting every nerve. I didn’t bother picking up the phone, I just turned and stormed out of my office, barely aware of where I was going until I found myself striding toward the training grounds, where I knew Aiden and Axel would be.There they were, standing side by side, aiming steadily as they shot arrows at the distant targets. The clang of each hit barely registered as I approached. The two of them glanced over when I got close, their expressions curious but unconcerned. That would change soon enough.“Hey,” Axel called, tossing me an extra bow. “Fancy joining us for some target practice?”“Not today,” I snapped, barely stopping myself from breaking the bow in half. “We have a problem. Willow is moving on.”My brothers’ hands froze mid-motion, their arrows poised to launch. Axel’s gaze sharpened instantly, whi

    Willow's POV The room was aglow with chandeliers, crystal, and light sparkling across the expansive ballroom. I felt a little like Cinderella, stepping out of the car with Jason and Ruby, the weight of the evening buzzing through me. The dress, a deep red satin that clung to my figure and flowed around my feet was enough to make me feel glamorous, but also exposed. Jason glanced at me and muttered, “You look incredible,” before turning to offer Ruby his arm.The warmth in his gaze was genuine, and for a moment, it lingered, making me wonder if I imagined it. As quickly as it came, his expression hardened, replaced by a more professional detachment. The night was about networking, he’d reminded me, and I clung to that reminder now. I was here for work, not personal dreams or complications.“Come on,” he whispered, his voice confident as always. “You’re the CEO of Winterlock Pharmaceuticals. Tonight’s yours to own.”I squared my shoulders and tried to believe it. The lights, the laught

    Asher's POV As soon as Willow stormed out of the gala, I knew our plan had worked. The mission to separate her from anyone she’d come with, to ensure she didn’t spend her evening in the arms of some overly friendly “Alpha’s son,” had been executed perfectly. Aiden, Axel, and I exchanged satisfied glances. But this wasn’t over yet. There was still one person who needed to be reminded of where the boundaries were. I spotted Benjamin at the bar. He looked mildly confused, maybe a little ruffled by the drama, but still composed. I walked up to him, letting my steps land heavier than usual as I came to a stop right in front of him.“Benjamin,” I said, keeping my tone civil, “could we have a word? Privately.”He hesitated, glancing at Aiden and Axel standing like shadows at my side, before nodding. “Sure. Follow me. You are being gentlemen now after being total assholes to me barely thirty minutes ago.” He protested but we ignored him, we had more pressing matters to address. He led us

    Willow’s POV The door clicked shut behind me, and silence settled over my apartment as I let out a deep, shaky breath. After the gala, my nerves were still buzzing with a blend of anger and disbelief. I couldn’t shake the feeling of being trapped, cornered, and all thanks to the triplets. They had the nerve to make an appearance at an event I was attending, and not only that, they turned it into a spectacle that practically screamed: “territorial.” But I wasn’t their territory. I wasn’t anyone's. And the sooner they realized that, the better.I poured myself a drink and ran a hot bath, trying to scrub away the evening’s tension. The warmth wrapped around me, soothing my muscles, but not the storm of thoughts swirling in my mind. I wished I could forget the way Asher’s gaze had burned through me, or how Axel had watched me, almost daring me to resist them. I wished I could just erase Aiden’s smug grin from my memory. They were everything I wanted to escape, and yet…they were undeniab

True to their word, the triplets were gone. For a moment, I thought it had been a surreal dream, but the faint scent of their cologne lingering in the air and the sheets scattered on the couch reminded me that it was real.As I stretched and sat up, I spotted a note propped neatly on one of the sofas. My heart skipped as I reached for it, wondering if it was another one of their taunts. It read:"Willow, thank you for your kindness. We’ll find a way to pay you back soon. With love,Aiden, Axel, Asher."I shook my head, feeling an odd mix of relief and annoyance. I crumpled the paper and tossed it in the trash, refusing to let their charming words and smooth handwriting sway me. I’d had enough of the games they played, and if this was supposed to be a peace offering, I wasn't buying it.After tidying up t

    Asher's POV The city lights stretched out beneath us, a sprawling sea of flickering bulbs illuminating the skyline from our penthouse. I leaned back into the plush leather couch, drink in hand, and took in the familiar sight of my brothers. After the chaos of the past few days with Willow, this quiet moment felt long overdue. Aiden lounged across from me, his focus split between his phone and his drink, while Axel, the schemer of the group, was looking pensive, the gears in his mind clearly turning.We were back here, together, but the issues waiting for us back home loomed larger than ever. And it was Axel who finally brought it up, the problem that none of us could dodge forever: the arranged marriage pact with the girls in our pack. The sheer thought of it grated on me. No matter how much I might try to push it aside, the obligation hung over me like an unwanted shadow.“We need a plan,” Axel began, tapping his glass thoughtfully. “Once we go back, our father is really going to pr

    Asher’s POVThe tension in the air was thick as we walked through the estate grounds, past dimly lit pathways and the occasional chirp of a night bird. I could feel the weight of our plan pressing down on me, and I couldn’t help but wonder if we’d really thought this all the way through. Benjamin wasn’t the easiest person to talk to today, and if we wanted him to consider our proposal, we’d need a perfect balance of diplomacy and, well, a little luck.As we approached the fountain where he was standing, gazing at the rippling water, I knew he’d already sensed our presence. Benjamin turned, his expression guarded, hands tucked casually into his coat pockets. He looked at us with an arched brow, clearly unimpressed.“Well, well,” he said, his voice laced with skepticism. “Here we are again. What is it this time? Another one of your brilliant ideas that’ll make my life more complicated or you have decided that I do not deserve to see the next day for daring to talk to your mate?”I shot

I had barely settled into my chair when Ruby came in with a cup of coffee and a quick rundown of the day’s meetings. She had the perfect balance of energy and professionalism that made her indispensable; as much as I liked to think of myself as independent, having her support let me breathe a little easier. “Looks like you’ll have a break right before lunch,” Ruby said, scanning her notes. “I think that’s the first time in two weeks you’ve had a morning free.”I smiled, sipping my coffee. “Maybe I’ll take up knitting.”She rolled her eyes with a grin. “Knowing you, you’ll just fill it with something work-related. But hey, a girl can hope.” We laughed, and I let myself savor the moment before diving into my inbox.It wasn’t long before the peace was interrupted by a knock on my office door. Ruby’s eyebrows shot up, and she tilted her head toward the door with curiosity. “Expectin

    Chapter 70OverreactionAsher's POVI paced the floor, checking my watch for what felt like the hundredth time. It was past the time Willow was supposed to have arrived. The evening air outside had grown cooler, and the shadows in the room seemed to stretch farther as if reflecting the tension gnawing at my insides. Willow should have been here by now. We had planned for her to get picked up by mid-day but it was almost dusk and there was still no word from her.Axel had already tried calling her more times than I cared to count, his face growing darker with each unanswered ring. We even called the hotel, only to be told that she wasn’t picking up her room phone either. A knot formed in my stomach. What was going on? "She’ll turn up," Aiden said, trying to reassure us, though the uncertainty in his voice betrayed him. Axel’s jaw tightened. “I don’t know, Aiden. I feel like she might have left. Everything she came here to do is done, she’s helped me recover, helped you get back, an

    Chapter 69Ended RealitiesWillow's POVThe ride back to my hotel felt like an eternity. The world outside was a blur of lights and shadows as the car sped through the city streets, but all I could focus on was the whirlwind of emotions churning inside me. I had barely been able to think straight since I left Jason’s hotel room. His words echoed in my mind, sharp and accusing, and then, just when I thought I couldn’t take anymore, he confessed that he loved me. Love. The word seemed so out of place, so foreign coming from him. My heart ached at the thought of it, not because I wanted to return those feelings but because of the way he had said it like it was a plea, a desperate cry for me to see him the way he wanted me to. I couldn’t help but wonder if there was truth in some of the things Jason had said. He had called me cheap and made me feel like I had somehow been used by the triplets. There had been a part of me, a dark corner I didn’t want to acknowledge, that wondered if he

    Chapter 68A Thin LineWillow's POV I stared at the phone in my hand, the weight of the decision I was about to make settling into my bones. It wasn’t that I wanted to confront him, Jason. He had been there for me, I couldn’t deny that. But sometimes, his protectiveness over me, his constant need to guard me from every little thing, felt like a chain wrapped around my heart. It was smothering. He needed to know that. I pressed the dial button, and the phone once, twice, three times before he picked up. “Willow,” Jason’s voice was flat, tired like he already knew what I was going to say. “I don’t want to talk right now.” My heart tightened. I wanted to scream at him, but I forced the words out instead, keeping my voice steady. “I’m not giving you a choice, Jason. I need you to tell me where you are.” There was a long silence on the other end. I could almost feel him weighing his options, deciding whether to comply or push me away further. I couldn’t let him. Not this time. F

    Chapter 67A Romantic HorrorAxel's POVI couldn’t shake the feeling. Every minute since we returned from Willow’s hotel room, the tension had settled in my chest like a weight. My thoughts were consumed by the idea of our father. The old man, where was he? What would he do when he returned? How far had he gone in his plan? I tried to push it out of my mind, but it wasn’t easy. Asher, of course, noticed my mood shift. He always did. “You alright?” Asher asked, his voice cutting through the quiet of the living room. I had been staring into the empty space in front of me for what felt like hours. I blinked, the reality of the question pulling me back to the present. “Yeah, just… wondering what our father will do when he comes back.” His brow furrowed, and I could tell he wasn’t buying it. He knew better. I had to be careful. “You think the poison from the bullet is acting up again too?” he asked and I wondered why he thought that. I ran a hand through my hair, trying to shake

My eyelids fluttered open, and as soon as they did, I knew, this wasn’t just any sleep. No, this was the kind of sleep that made everything feel distant like I had traveled somewhere far away and then returned. The best sleep I’d had in eight years.The weight of everything, the trauma, the heartbreak, the loss that had been crushing me for as long as I could remember had been lifted in that quiet, undisturbed rest. I felt light, lighter than I had in so long. There was no tension in my body, no gnawing worry. I could finally breathe. For a fleeting moment, I believed that maybe I was okay again. That everything would somehow be okay. But as the fog of sleep started to lift, the reality of my situation slammed back into my consciousness. The triplets. Asher, Axel, Aiden.I reached out instinctively, hoping to find their warmth

    Chapter 65Desperate Measures Asher's POVThe first light of dawn was soft, creeping through the curtains of Willow’s hotel room. I could still hear the steady rhythm of her breathing next to me, her body tucked into the sheets as she slept soundly. I wanted to stay, to lie next to her forever, to savor the fleeting moments when the world seemed perfect when nothing outside this room mattered. But Axel’s sharp voice broke the spell.“We can’t stay, Ash. We have to go. Now.” I sat up, rubbing my eyes, but I already knew what he meant. We couldn’t risk waking her up, not after everything that had happened, not after everything we had left finished. Our time here was temporary. Willow needed rest, and we couldn’t afford to stay any longer.Axel was already moving, gathering his things and moving as quietly as he could. A small part of me wished I could stay longer, and hold Willow in my arms just a little bit more, but Axel was right. There was too much at stake, and if we stayed, we

    Chapter 64Debt RepaidWillow’s POVThe pull was undeniable. It wasn’t just them; I felt it too. A simmering heat, an ache that had lingered for years, now amplified in the small hospital room. The triplets tried to hide it, masking their desperation under layers of stoicism, but I saw the truth. Their wolves were battling for control, and I could feel their struggle like it was my own. It wasn’t just the bond, it was what they had done. They had saved my children without even knowing they existed. For that, they deserved something, even if it was temporary. My body trembled as I came to a decision. I had to just not make it look like this was also coming from a place of need for me, it made more sense for me to justify it as that than as anything else. “I need to step out for a moment,” I said, my voice softer than I intended. The three of them looked at me, their eyes glowing faintly, as though their wolves didn’t want me to leave. I reassured them with a small smile before ste

    Chapter 63A New EmotionAxel’s POVThe first thing I noticed was the pull, sharp, undeniable, and wild. My wolf surged forward, its growl resonating in my chest as I gripped the edge of the bed. My vision blurred, the room spinning around me. Across the room, I saw Asher stagger, his fists clenched, his entire body trembling. Aiden wasn’t far behind; he leaned against the wall, his glowing eyes betraying his own internal struggle. “What’s going on?” Willow’s voice cut through the haze. The sound hit me like lightning, reigniting the fire that was already roaring inside. My wolf clawed at the walls of my control, desperate, relentless. Every word she spoke only made it worse. Aiden’s voice was low and rough, his struggle evident. “We feel… like letting them take over. Letting our wolves do what they want.” Her brows furrowed in confusion. “What do they want?” Asher’s growl rumbled through the room. “You,” he said, his voice raw and guttural. “They want you. Our mate. It's be

    Chapter 62Bonded and Broken Willow’s POVI didn’t know what had drawn me back to Axel’s hospital room at that exact moment. Maybe it was the lingering tension in the air or the unsettling energy that had been nagging at me all day. Aiden had texted again, asking me to come by, but his message had been more cryptic this time around and not as always. It was almost like something had happened and he now just wanted to tell me. Even though I knew the men felt disappointed with what Kingston could come up with after accusing their father of so many terrible things. Jason trailed behind me, his footsteps heavy against the polished floor as we walked down the corridor. I could feel his presence like a protective shadow, and while I appreciated his support, I wasn’t sure how much of it was necessary or welcome today. Then I heard it. “Asher?” Jason’s voice was puzzled, but I barely registered it. My ears buzzed, and my heart stuttered in my chest. That voice. I hadn’t heard it in t
