Claimed by the Triplet Alphas: Breeder for the Lycan King
To the world, Ryder, Liam, and Kratavak are the Triplet Alphas of the elite Volkov Pack, powerful, untouchable, and lethally handsome. To me, they are the stepbrothers who made my life a living hell from the moment my parents died to save theirs.
I am the "charity case." The wolfless girl who cleans their floors and endures their cruelty. But the triplets carry a dark secret: a blood-curse that is slowly driving them feral. And for some reason, my touch is the only thing that can quiet the storm in their veins.
They hate that they need me. They despise that their inner beasts howl for a girl they consider beneath them.
When my fated mate finally appears, he doesn't bring me flowers. He brings a cold rejection, eyeing me with a mix of hunger and disgust. In a moment of shattered pride and burning rebellion, I find myself in the arms of a dangerous stranger for a single, forbidden night.
I thought I could run. I thought I could raise my secret babies in the shadows, far from the Volkovs and the mate who threw me away.
But the stranger from that night wasn't just a drifter. He is the Lycan King, a man with secrets more dangerous than the triplets’ curse. Now, he’s coming to claim what’s his, and my stepbrothers aren't ready to let their "cure" go.
In a world of Alphas, I was meant to be a breeder. But I’m about to become the spark that burns their empires to the ground.

Chapter: One Hundred and ThirteenKiaShe came back to herself slowly, the way surfacing from deep water required patience rather than urgency.She was on her knees. She didn't remember kneeling. Her children were in her arms, both of them quiet now, their eyes their ordinary dark color, no longer glowing, simply looking at her with the specific calm of two beings who had just completed something significant and were now, for the first time in their short lives, fully at rest."Kia." Xander's voice, close, his hands on her shoulders, steadying her. "Kia, can you hear me.""Yes," she said, and found her voice steady, clearer than it had been in months. "Yes, I can hear you."She looked around the room. Everyone was still standing, still in their positions, the circle unbroken. Sable was crying, quietly, her notebook clutched to her chest. Declan looked as though he'd witnessed something that had finally answered four years of obsessive research and found the answer larger than he'd prepared for. Liam and Kratavak and R

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred and TwelveKiaShe woke before dawn with the specific knowledge, arriving complete and certain in her chest, that today was the day.She didn't need Declan's countdown or Sable's notes to confirm it. The wolf told her first, rising in her chest with a steadiness that had nothing tentative left in it, and a moment later, both twins woke simultaneously in their crib, their eyes already lit, gold and blue, bright and present, with none of the gradual transition through sleep that usually marked their mornings."Xander," she said quietly.He was already awake beside her, his hand finding hers in the dark. "I feel it too."They moved through the waystation together, gathering the household with a calm urgency that had been rehearsed, in its way, across seven days of waiting. Liam appeared first, fully dressed despite the hour, as though he too had known. Kratavak and Ryder followed within minutes. Sable came with her notebook already open.

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred and TenKratavakHe found Sable on the sixth day, sitting near the window with her notebook now nearly full, page after page of careful observation building steadily toward whatever was finally coming for all of them."Are you ready?" he asked, lowering himself into the chair across from her."As ready as forty years of practice can make a person," she said, not looking up immediately from her notes. "Which is to say, I've prepared everything within my power to prepare, and I'm doing my best to make peace with everything that remains entirely outside it.""That sounds like good advice for all of us, honestly," he said.She looked up at him properly then. "How are you doing, Kratavak? Genuinely, not the answer you'd give anyone else."He considered the question with more genuine care than he might have given it only a few months earlier, back when deflection had still been his default setting."Settled," he said finally. "Which surprises me more than I expected it to. I spent six years feeling

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred and NineRyderHe spent the fourth day reinforcing the waystation's outer perimeter alongside Kratavak, the steady physical labor offering a welcome distraction from the specific, gnawing anxious waiting that filled nearly every other hour of the day now."You've been different since the stability test," Kratavak observed, hauling a fallen support beam into position against the southern wall with the easy strength that had always characterized him."I felt them choose me," Ryder said, bracing his end of the beam. "Not forgive me, exactly. Choose me, for now, for this specific and particular purpose." He set his end down carefully once it was secured. "It's different from earning her trust gradually, the way I've been trying to do for weeks now. This happened all at once, in a single moment, and I'm not certain I fully understand yet what to do with that kind of grace.""Maybe you don't actually have to understand it completely," Kratavak said, wiping sweat from his brow despite the cold. "Mayb

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred and EightSableIt began on an ordinary morning, nothing in the room suggesting anything unusual, which was exactly what made Sable notice it at all. The absence of warning was itself the warning, after weeks of learning what these two children's signals looked like before anything happened.She was recording routine measurements when Soren went still.Not the alert stillness she'd documented before. Something deeper. His gold eyes stayed open but unfocused, as though he were listening to something arriving from a great distance, something only he could perceive yet."Kia," Sable said, keeping her voice carefully level so as not to alarm anyone unnecessarily before she understood what she was seeing herself.Kia was across the room instantly, lifting her son, searching his small face with the specific urgency of a mother who had learned to take every signal seriously. "What is it. Talk to me, Sable.""He's not distressed," Sable said, watching closely, her trained eye cataloguing every detail.
