All Chapters of My Triplet Alphas: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Irish’s POVI sit in class, staring at the open textbook in front of me, but I don’t see the words. The letters blur together, meaningless shapes on the page. My fingers grip the edge of the desk, my knuckles turning pale. My mind isn’t here. It’s on her. It’s on Ava.She had refused to let me follow her home yesterday. I had wanted to, my entire body itching to chase after her, but she had looked at me with those stubborn eyes, daring me to respect her space. I had known it was a bad idea to let her go alone, but she didn’t give me a choice. And now, regret sits heavy on my chest like a weight I can’t shake off.I don’t know if she made it home safely. I don’t know if she’s okay. And it’s driving me insane. My fingers tighten even more around the desk, my jaw clenching so hard it aches. I should have followed her. Rules be damned. Ava always acts like she doesn’t need anyone, but I know better. She’s reckless. She does things on her own, even when she shouldn’t.I bounce my leg under

 Ava’s POV I remember waking up to that awful burning sensation. It felt like my whole body was on fire, itching so badly I could barely breathe. I shifted in bed, trying to get comfortable, but even that didn’t help. The sheets scraped against my skin, making it worse. Why did I feel like that? I rubbed my arms, hoping it would ease the itch, but it didn’t. If anything, it made it worse. I remember sitting up slowly, feeling my heartbeat pick up as I pulled back the blanket. That’s when I noticed my skin. Red blotches covered my arms, the skin looking raw and irritated. It wasn’t just my arms either, my legs were the same. I tugged at the neckline of my nightgown, and my stomach dropped when I saw the

 Ava’s POV I froze as soon as Steve said it. “I’d rather take Ava,” he’d said, his voice calm, but the impact of those words hit me like a punch to the chest. Sarah’s face hardened immediately. I could see the anger flash in her eyes, even though she tried to hide it by forcing a smile. My stepmom was watching too, her lips pressed tightly together, and I could already feel the Anger.  I needed to fix this, fast! I swallowed hard, trying to think of something that would smooth things over. Then, without giving myself time to hesitate, I grabbed Steve’s hand and gave it a little tug. His hand was warm and strong, and for a second, my mind w

Ava’s POV“Can we be friends?”Friends? With Vanessa? I didn’t see that coming, and from the look on Vanessa’s face, she didn’t either. Her eyebrows shot up as she stared at Sarah like she’d just grown two heads.“You want to be my friend?” Vanessa asked, her voice dripping with pride. She tilted her chin up and gave Sarah that smug, know-it-all look she loved using to make people feel small. “Do you even realize who I am? I’m the Alpha’s daughter. The one and only Alpha’s daughter.”She said it like she expected Sarah to back down, like just hearing those words would make her rethink her decision. But Sarah didn’t even flinch. Instead, she smiled wider and let out a soft laugh, like she wasn’t intimidated at all.“I know exactly who you are,” Sarah said sweetly. “And that’s why I want to be your friend. You’re strong, confident, and, well… I can tell you’re a good person deep down. I think we could really get along.”For a moment, Vanessa didn’t say anything. I could tell she wasn’t

 Ava’s POV Steve’s lips brush against mine softly at first, like he’s testing the waters, and my heart skips a beat. I don’t know how it happens, but before I can think straight, I’m kissing him back. His hand cups my cheek gently, and for a few seconds, I let myself melt into the moment. It feels… strange. New. His lips are warm, and there’s a softness to the kiss that makes my chest tighten. I’ve never felt anything like this before. But then, like a slap of cold air, reality comes crashing down on me. I pull away, gasping, my face flushed, my heart racing so fast it feels like it might burst out of my chest. Steve stares at me, his green eyes wide with
