Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

RylanThe familiar sight of Blackridge pack’s towering trees and the cool mountain air did little to settle the unease brewing inside me. I had returned, but my heart was still in Shadowfang. Valeria. I couldn’t get her out of my mind. The thought of her being there, alone with Kade, filled me with a deep sense of dread. She could take care of herself—she had proven that time and time again—but something about Shadowfang always felt off, like a shadow looming just beneath the surface.As I approached the main packhouse, the usual warmth of coming home was muted by the tension running through me. My family greeted me at the entrance, their smiles wide but not reaching their eyes.“Rylan, welcome back,” my father said, clapping a hand on my shoulder. “We’ve missed you.”I nodded, trying to focus on them and not the whirlwind in my mind. “It’s good to be home.”But before I could even settle into the comfort of familiar surroundings, my mother spoke up, her voice laced with anticipation.

RylanThe next morning, I was in my room, staring out the window at the early morning mist that blanketed the forest. My thoughts were still on Valeria, as they always seemed to be these days. I couldn’t shake the image of her face, the way she had looked at me before I left Shadowfang. How was she holding up? Was she safe? My gut twisted with worry.A knock at the door snapped me out of my thoughts. I sighed, turning to see my father standing in the doorway, his expression unreadable but stern, as usual. He didn’t bother waiting for an invitation before stepping inside.“Rylan,” he began, his voice cold and authoritative, “we need to talk.”I already knew where this conversation was heading. My jaw clenched, but I forced myself to stay calm. “What is it, Father?”He didn’t waste time getting to the point. “You will marry Seraphina.”My muscles tensed at the command. “Father, we’ve already been through this. I told you—Valeria is my mate.”My father’s lips curled into a frown, the lin

ValeriaFor the next few days, I avoided Kade and his father as much as possible. There was a tension in the air I couldn’t shake, and every time I saw Kade’s father’s dark eyes watching me, I felt like prey being stalked. His presence lingered like a shadow, always near enough to remind me that I was never truly alone, never out of his reach.I stayed on my guard, but it wasn’t easy. Shadowfang was Kade’s territory, his home, yet somehow, I always felt like I was trespassing, especially now. My suspicions about Kade’s father were growing by the day, but the more I tried to avoid him, the more he seemed to find ways to corner me.One evening, I was wandering through the woods near the packhouse, trying to clear my head. The trees provided some comfort, their towering presence grounding me as I processed everything that had been happening. But my peace didn’t last long. I felt a prickling at the back of my neck—the unmistakable sensation of being watched.I stopped, turning slowly. The

ValeriaThe night was quiet as I made my way back toward the house, my thoughts still lingering on everything Alaric had told me. The partial revelation of my so-called destiny hung heavily over me, and I couldn’t help but feel like I was still stumbling in the dark, unsure of where to turn next.But one thing was certain—I needed more answers. And those answers, at least some of them, were with Kade. The more I thought about, the more I felt like he knew more than he was letting on.I hesitated outside the door to his room, the cool night air swirling around me. My heart pounded in my chest, a mixture of anxiety and anticipation coursing through me. Despite everything, despite the secrets and the uncertainty, there was something undeniable between us. A pull I couldn’t ignore, no matter how hard I tried.I raised my hand, knocked softly, and waited.“Come in,” came his voice, low and steady, sending a shiver through me.I pushed the door open and stepped inside. Kade stood by the win

ValeriaThe unease lingered long after Kade’s father left the room. I couldn’t shake the chill that settled deep in my bones, the knowledge that he was plotting something far more insidious than I’d ever imagined. His words echoed in my mind—his alliances with the rogues, his hunger for power. It all felt too big, too dangerous, and we were running out of time.Later that afternoon, I found myself pacing the small study, unable to sit still. Kade was out handling some pack business, but even that seemed like a diversion compared to the storm brewing just beneath the surface. I couldn’t stop thinking about the implications of what we’d uncovered.We knew now that Kade’s father was the mastermind behind rogue activities, but there was more to it than just his control over one faction. I had overheard conversations, picked up on subtle hints during my own discreet investigations. Kade’s father had been meeting with other rogue leaders, making deals, solidifying alliances. It wasn’t just
