All Chapters of THE TRIPLET ALPHAS’ HUMAN MATE : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

AVA POVI kept getting calls and texts from Dante and Collin all weekend, but I ignored both of them. I also avoided running into them at school.During lunch break, I had to go to the cafeteria because I was starving. I hated spending money there because the food was ridiculously expensive, but I hadn’t had time to make lunch for myself, so I ended up buying the overpriced meal anyway.As I walked back to my seat, someone suddenly stuck out their leg, causing me to stumble and crash hard onto the ground. My tray flew out of my hands, and my food scattered across the floor.Laughter erupted around me.I looked up to see Jessica and her friends laughing while taking pictures. My eyes immediately drifted to my ruined food, and anger boiled inside me. I had just spent the last of my money on that meal, and now it was lying on the dirty cafeteria floor.I pushed myself up and stormed toward Jessica. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed my ex-best friend, Lisa, sitting with them. She was

AVA’S POV. I was washing my hands in the washroom when I heard a strange noise. I turned around, but there was no one else in the washroom, so I shook it off and made my way out of the bathroom. Just as I was coming out of the bathroom, I was attacked by a group of people. I couldn’t see their faces because I was instantly covered with a black bag. I struggled to get out of their embrace, but they were three times stronger than me and seemed to be larger. I struggled to fight with them, but when they placed me on their shoulders, the next thing I knew, I was in a moving car and being taken somewhere. Throughout the ride, my eyes were blindfolded, and I could not see a single thing. The men in the car rarely spoke, and when they did, it was in a foreign language I did not understand.The car abruptly stopped, signalling our arrival at our destination. The man hoisted me onto his shoulders, and by then, I was calmer, no longer interested in resisting. Eventually, he placed me onto a ch

AVA’S POV.“I’m sorry, Ava—”“No.” I shook my head violently. “No. Don’t do that. Don’t sit there and tell me you’re sorry like that’s supposed to fix this.”My mother lowered her eyes, guilt flashed across her face.“Maybe everyone was wrong about you.” I hissed. My mother frowned. “What?”“You’re not a good person.”Her face went white.“Ava…”“Because a good person wouldn’t do this to their daughter. What the hell were you thinking?”“I thought…. I thought if it worked, we’d never have to struggle again.” She whispered I dragged both hands through my hair and started pacing the room. “You stole half a million dollars because somebody promised you’d get rich?”My voice cracked.“I wanted to help,” she whispered.I laughed. “Help?”“Help?” I repeated. “Five hundred thousand dollars, Mom. Five hundred thousand. Do you have any idea what that number even means?”“Ava—”“No, because apparently you don’t.” I pointed at her. “You know what my life has been?”Tears blurred my vision.“

COLLIN'S POVWatching Ava laugh with her mother did something strange to my chest. Maybe it was because twenty minutes ago she'd been crying so hard I thought she might break apart or maybe it was because my wolf was practically wagging his tail watching our mate smile again.Either way, I couldn't stop staring.Her mother had finally fallen asleep after talking with her for a while, and Ava quietly slipped out of the room, carefully closing the hospital door behind her.The second she spotted me, a small smile appeared on her face and Moon Goddess help me, I nearly forgot how to breathe."Hey.""Hey yourself."She shoved her hands into her hoodie pockets and her eyes softened. "Thank you."I frowned. "For what?""For staying." She glanced toward her mother's room. "I don't think I could've gotten through this without you."My wolf preened immediately.Mine. I ignored him.A smile tugged at my lips. "Ava, I'm your mate."Her eyes rolled so hard I almost laughed. "There he goes again

DANTE’S POV. The chains rattled loudly through the empty gym as sweat dripped down my neck and soaked through my shirt. My knuckles had long since split open, staining the white wraps around my hands crimson, but I barely felt the pain anymore. It was easier than thinking, because every time I stopped moving, I heard her voice again.“Leadership clearly isn’t in the blood.”My fist slammed into the bag hard enough to make it jerk sideways.I hit it again.“Kris would have made a better first son than you.”Father’s voice echoed inside my skull until I wanted to rip it out of my own head.I threw another punch.“Fuck!” I roared, driving my fist into the punching bag so hard the impact shot pain up my arm.My vision blurred slightly. Sweat burned my eyes, my chest heaving violently as rage and shame twisted together inside me like poison. I wasn’t angry at Ava, I was mad at myself because every cruel thing I had done looked pathetic under her gaze. Like she had ripped away all the excu
