All Chapters of Triplet Alphas and Their Reluctant Mate: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

 IZZY POVI was confined to the house for two weeks.Elder Johan had kindly told me it was best if I voluntarily submitted to that.  He said it would be easier for me to prove my innocence if something else came up.  I agreed.  For my safety and to prevent anay sabotage of my testimony, my mates stationed warriors around the Alpha House with explicit instructions to stop me from leaving and to detain anyone from coming in.  I was a prisoner in my own home.I didn’t think it would be hard because the Alpha House is so big and there’s everything I could ever want inside of it.  I trained in the basement, read in the library, and ate in the huge dining room.  Turns out, when someone says you can’t leave, it doesn’t matter how nice the place is.  You just want to leave.My trial will take place tomorrow.  My mates were on edge but trying to pretend to be normal.  One of the triplets was

IZZY POV We spent a beautiful night together, our sweaty bodies entwined with sweet words and tender touches.  I dropped off to sleep right before dawn. They let me sleep, but I almost wish they hadn’t.  My dreams were plagued with horrors.  I had found out from the gardener how the sentence was carried out.  The council gave a dose of wolfsbane to kill the wolf, first, and then euthanized the person.  He had told me, with sympathy, that it looked painful.   I wasn’t afraid of the pain, but I was afraid for Heka.  I woke with a start to see my mom standing in my room, an apologetic smile on her face.  “Darling, it’s time to get up.  We need to be at the arena in an hour.” I pushed back the blankets and stood on my unsteady legs.  I was trying to be brave, but my insides were a turmoil of emotion, mostly anger.  I was pretty sure I knew who was behind all of this and I couldn’t believe they we

ALPHA STEVEN POVWith Anne’s statement, the crowd began to grumble.  My mate pressed close to me, and I smiled down at her.  “This is all because of you, my love,” I told her.  She turned her head up at me with a grin.  It was due to her empathic powers that we had realized why Anne Thorne had given her original testimony.“I love it when there is justice,” she whispered back.  We both listened for a bit to Silvo’s blustering, insisting that there was foul play involved.  I finally grinned at my mate.“Is it time?”“Yes, darling.  I think it is.”  She gave my arm a squeeze and I left the shadows I was standing in and approached the dais in the middle.  “Give him hell,” I heard her whisper.“Honored Councilmen,” I began, interrupting the murmuring from the crowd and Silvo’s weak attempts to discredit Anne.  When

IZZY POV“We, the members of the High Council of the Americas, find Isadora Killian innocent of all charges.  The verdict will be noted in the permanent logs of the Council and this charge may never be brought against her in the future.  We are also noting the false accusations that were made against She-wolf Killian and those records will remain on the accuser’s records for seven years before being removed.  During this time, they will not be able to testify or give evidence in any council matters.”I wasn’t totally sure what this meant, but I heard the important part.  I was innocent of the charges.  I would be going home to the dinner Joanna was preparing for me.“There is a further matter that has been brought to the attention of this Council,” Elder Trey intoned.  “The matter of Silvo Dargas, Vanessa Dargas, Katie Dargas and Leo Calvichi.  Silvo Dargas has had evidence brought agai

ETHAN POV I got Izzy home and took her up to our bedroom. She was moving like a sleepy little girl, and I realized that she was just drained, emotionally and physically. I gently helped her out of her clothes and tucked her into bed before heading down to our office. “We would really appreciate that,” I heard Reese say as I approached the door to the office. Alpha Steven was sitting on the couch with Luna Jacqueline sitting next to him. “Appreciate what?” I asked. “How is the Luna?” asked Jacqueline in her lilty accent, ignoring my question. “Resting,” I said. “She is exhausted.” “She’s been through a lot today,” Caleb said. “She’s been through a lot this past year,” Steven corrected. I looked down, ashamed. “Yes, she has. And we haven’t helped much.” Steven gave me a sympathetic smile. “No, you haven’t. But I’m done berating you boys. I’m here to help. Jackie and I have two weeks to give you. We’ll help you get things sorted out and taken care of. Jackie will hel
