Bonded to Her Triple Alphas

Kaya’s POV.

My eyes open to the sound of wood crackling as it burns. As I stand up, adjusting my weight so I can sit up and rest on one arm, I watch as the fire burns the woods.

It’s a beauty that lights up the space and leaves it cozy and warm for me, but what damage does it do to the woods? I think of its beauty and see that, but what happens to the woods? They burn and turn into ashes and are finally blown away, and the coldness is back except more wood is burned.

It’s a theory that rings in my head in relation to all that’s happening around me. My anger justifies my actions for me. It makes me feel like I’m doing the right thing or what anyone would expect of me after all that I’ve faced, but at what cost? What more damage have I done and not realized?

It’s all sweet until it hits back at me, and thankfully, I know better than to think that darkness is the path to healing me.

Anyway, thinking of where I am, I look around to see a grumpy shape, and then my eyes pop out of their sockets.

“Where is…” My voice trails off as I realize that I’m inside a cave. My senses heighten, and I stand up as my eyes wander around for any hint of danger.

“I thought you’d wake up with a concussion.” Says a familiar masculine voice, and my head snaps over to the opening of the cave.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

My eyes come into contact with a teeth-flashing-at-me like he’s won some sort of lottery, Chester, and I cock my head away for a brief moment.

“How am I here?” I think back to my memories, and then it hits me with so much churning in my stomach.

I had helped Olivia and the other Alphas catch the triplets, and I was crying at the burial ground of my family when Chester came over and captured me.

He captured me!

My eyes flare, and my body goes straight into the undivided attention of alertness. “What do you want? What are you doing here? How did you bring me here?” Switching my eyes from his face to the woods he has gathered in his hands back to his face, I scream, “Say something.”

He raises his hand into the air, and the woods fall. “Ouch,” he mutters when some of it falls onto his feet. “You’re asking loads of questions.”

While he attempts to pick back the woods, I run towards the entrance, only to stop when I arrive at the edge. “oh, goodness. That’s fucking dangerous!” I’m breathing heavily as I halt at the end of the entrance.

We are literally in the middle of a mountain, and I can’t wrap my head around it. I’m losing it as I quickly step back and turn back inside. We are so high up from the ground that the air here is choking and chilling to the point where it can freeze a person into a bag of meat.

I wonder how many hours he would have spent crawling down before he’s able to go and gather these woods. But I shouldn’t care about it now. I must find a way for him to get me out of here.

“How did you bring me here?” My palm is directed at him as I spread them out with my eyes squinted, readying myself to cast a spell to ruin his face. “Tell me, or I’d ruin your face with that fire.” The two of us darted our eyes to the burning fire.

“You can’t remember, can you, Kaya?” He sounds like he is cautioning me rather than being afraid of me, and it sends a chill down my bloodstream, resulting in goosebumps.

“Come and sit, Kaya.” He adds that, and to be honest, I really need that.

“What do you want for me?” I ask him with my eyes squinted, still not wanting to miss any chances.

He smirks, “nothing that you want to do with me if given the chance.”

When he says that, I lower my guard. He’s right. In my head, I would burn him with the spell repeating inside my thoughts, but for me, he hasn’t hurt me before, and nothing inside me tells me that he’s about to do that now.

I remember something and ask him. “You seem calm, why? I remember how you evaded my spell. How did you do it?”

He chuckles, finding my words to be funny, and it makes me raise my brows in annoyance. “I’m sorry, but I think you’re forgetting something. Since childhood, I have been taken by witches who make use of dark magic. What did you think they did with me all those times?” He leaves me to wonder for a minute before he goes ahead to cleanse the curiosity. “Of course, I learned a great deal. I was to be a weapon for them to destroy anything until the triplets saved me and they suffered their curse.” In fact, I am still confused about how they are just cursed and nothing more.

If there’s anything my mother once taught me about witches who use dark magic, it’s that they don’t just curse. There’s always something more dark looming over it.

“I can see the rays or waves of each witch’s magic. As powerful as you are, you haven’t reached your full height, so I can see you evade yours. And that’s why I wish to talk sense into you before Olivia helps you reach your Maxima, and you kill us all without thinking of it twice.”

I stand up and shake my head. “You can’t change my mind, Chester. You’re right, and I’m sorry for wanting to hurt you when you haven’t done anything to hurt me before, but I don’t wish to hear more of your words. If you value your life, you will take me out of here and let me continue my burden.”

For a second, there’s silence before he grabs one of the woods and hurls it against the inside of the cave, crushing it in the aftereffects. “Why are your eyes closed, Kaya? What anger resides inside you that, as a spirit of good, you can’t break down?” He seems pissed. “Sit now.”

He looks like he isn’t in the mood for any disagreement. I am about to threaten him when he speaks up. “And I swear, if you lit me on fire like you wanted to do the other time, you’d only have more regrets inside you, but are you ready to bear that?” Finally, I see sense in his statements, and I calm myself.

“Maybe I should just hear whatever you have to say out.” My voice is low as I’m muttering to myself.

“Truly, you’ve been wronged by these people, but have you seen the damages you’ve done in return? You suffer in pain, but to settle, would you love to inflict pain on others?” He shifts closer to me. “Enough of the questions, Kaya, and look deep inside yourself. I don’t know you at all, but I can tell you don’t want this. Olivia is using you. She tells you how much her species has hurt you without thinking of the consequences when you finish the triplets’, and what if you get so angry and decide to destroy her and the other alphas too? We need to reason, and Kaya, you don’t want to hurt these people. You don’t want to have these deaths, and you can still redeem yourself? This can’t be what such a beautiful soul like yourself wants for anyone.”

He spreads out his and nods for me to place mine atop his. When I did, he clipped mine and his together. “Feel the warmth from my skin; don’t you like it? You can’t keep hurting these people because it’s simply what anyone expects of you. Yes, you’ve suffered, and it’s stupid to forgive your prisoner, but they are your mates, and you’re better than them. You’re the bigger person here. Let this thing go. Find absolution within yourself. Redeem. Rejuvenate. Find bliss. Your parents, your brother, your loved ones-everyone suffered before they died, but did you ever connect with them and know if this is what they want you to do in return for their deaths? Find out and tell me.” He tells me, and I look away from his eyes.

There’s silence between us before I suddenly smack his head and force out a smile. “You’re actually smart. A bit.”

Standing up, I go to the end of the cave and sit on my legs before I close my eyes and exhale softly.

“Welcome back, Kaya.” Begins with an echoing feminine voice that I recognize very well.

My witch side.
