All Chapters of Triplet Alphas and Their Reluctant Mate: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

IZZY POVThe five of us looked at each other in confusion.  A shriek from one of the offices propelled me into movement and I was first out the door, racing after Griz.It wasn’t hard to figure out where he was going.  He was a big guy, even in human form, and he left a path of destruction.  It started with my broken door.  Outside my door I had a little table that held a snacks for anyone visiting my office.  The table was across the hall, on its side and the cookies were scattered on the ground.  I turned to see that one of my bookcases had been crashed in to, and was now sitting lopsided with the little nick knacks on the ground and the books skewed sideways in the shelves.  A huge vase in the foyer that I had filled holiday ornaments was now on its side, broken, half of the ornaments smashed under his huge feet, making it look like confetti strewn about.  The door to the dining room was broken, the half that was still a

IZZY POV“It’s about time,” I heard a deep, familiar voice say.  I looked over to see Cornelius sitting in a huge chair, much like a throne.“Is this a vision?” I asked.  I was pleased to see that my voice didn’t shake.Cornelius looked amused.  “Of sorts,” he said, the corners of his mouth twisting up.I looked around me.  I was in a dark room, lit only by the fireplace.  The stone walls and stone floor were drafty, and I could feel the cold seeping up into me from my bare feet.  I moved to the left where a fur had been thrown on the floor, seeking the insulation for my feet.“How’s Vanessa?” I asked, continuing to look around.  A bed was set in the corner of the room and a pair of chairs, one of which Cornelius was relaxing in, was around the fireplace.  Other than that, there were no more furnishings in the room.  It was a cold, forbidd

REESE POV“What did he mean that he could call for her?” Alpha Steven asked.  We had just filled him in on Izzy’s strange journey a few days ago. Ethan shrugged.  “We have no idea.  We’ve been taking turns watching her while she’s sleeping to make sure she’s safe.  So far, nothing.  That we know of, anyway.”“I feel like this has to do with the prophecy,” Elder Johan said.  “So much has come to pass already.”“Okay, let’s go over it again,” I agreed.  We were all in our office, trying to make sense of the prophecy and Izzy’s vision.  She had wanted to join in the meeting, but she was busy going over the final touches for the ball with her mom and Luna Jacqueline.  When that was done, she still had to figure out what she was wearing tonight.  She made me promise I would recap every moment of our meeting for

IZZY POV“What do you mean?” I asked.  Joanna was scaring me.  She looked very intense.  Ethan put his arm around me protectively.“How do you know this?” he asked.  Joanna looked at him.  Her eyes looked panicked.“Alphas, do you trust me?”  She was blunt. “Yes,” Reese said, instantly.  “But we would like to understand.”Joanna took a deep breath.  “Alphas, my father was a werewolf, but my mother was a witch.  I am a half-breed.  Please believe me when I say I have never used my magic for anything but good, but I am skilled.  I recognize this as old magic.  When Cornelius poisoned Luna, he put a piece of himself, his venom, inside her.  He can call that piece of him back to him whenever he wants.  And since that piece of him is inside Luna, she goes too.  The moonstone will help, but he can be stronger.

ETHAN POV“Bart, you’re not in trouble,” Caleb said, kindly.  “We just need to know who you talked to.”“But I never told anyone here that I’m not happy.  I am happy here, Sir,” Bart protested.  “I wouldn’t say that I wasn’t if I was.”  He was clearly nervous.  I sighed.  We were getting nowhere.“Bart, Cornelius was able to call Izzy to him a few days ago.  She is fine, obviously, but he did say that someone in our pack is talking to him and giving him information.”  I laid out the facts, ignoring Reese’s glare.  We had decided not to tell anyone about what had happened so that we didn’t alarm the pack, but Bart wasn’t getting it.  We knew he said something to someone, and we needed to know who.  This was too important.Bart looked confused for a moment and then his expression changed to abashed.&nbs
