Bonded to Her Triple Alphas

84

Kaya’s POV.

“No one is going to kill themselves here today.” I repeat my words as I step into the middle of the arrangement. The other packs’ men have surrounded us in a circle, so there is no way to run to them.

And I don’t plan on doing that anyway. Now that I think of a different approach to finding a solution to this war, I realize that I can relate to everything that everyone here has faced.

Olivia lost her mate, and hence, she became the vile woman that she became, yet she has a nice part of herself. I don’t care if it was all a facade or something of the sort, but when she was being nice to me, that was a different part of her that she could have chosen to live with.

And the other alphas. Knowingly that they have all shared a pain through the triplets, they have also spread such hate to every other part of this world. They judge the triplets for their pain, but given the ruin they’ve caused, who would they blame that on?

Everyone of us drifted into darkness because we thought it was the only way to actually get what we wanted. Because we expected ourselves to get revenge for the pain we’ve faced; hence, being evil is the right thing to do.

Maybe, after all, I can help us find a settlement.

“All of us here suffer from an experience that changes who we really are. This world is born out of pain and pleasure, darkness and light, good and evil, but why is it so swift for us to shift to the bad side and not the right one?”

Uhho. I don’t think this is working at all. Everyone is boiling with anger, and it doesn’t seem like they are in any way wanting to hear any speech right now. When I look at Chester, the look from his wolf tells me that I should hurry with whatever I want to say and pick my words carefully. But then, I never planned this, nor is this a performer where words are scripted.

Breathing with a count of one to three inside my head, I continue, “I beg of you, Olivia, command these men to stand down. Talk sense into these alphas and make them stop this right away. And allow us to leave here in peace.” I squint my eyes at her when she raises her brows in surprise as she steps down more and walks to my front.

“And why should I do as you say?”

“Because I am in the middle of everything. I have encountered all the pains each and every one of you has faced. The loss of a mate, the hatred of another breed, the loss of your rights, slavery from a being who is nothing greater than you are yet subjected himself to. I have lived each life and I know the pain, and I am in the best place to decide for everyone.”

She cracks up a laugh as she looks back at the alphas before she faces me once again. “You remain the novice that I helped escape that night, aren’t you?”

I shake my head in response. “No, you’re wrong. See the end of all these. If you kill each other, hunters will end you all, and as a witch, I must balance everything in between. I cannot be bais, and I never would be. I have suffered too in the hands of all men, in your hands too, Olivia.” I step forward, closing all space between us, “yet I see things from a different perspective.”

My eyes glow with freckles of gold as my body lights up with a glow of emerald green. The light streams from deep in the strands of the hair on my head down to my entire body and fills my lenses, too.

“Raise me above all, as you once did my ancestors.” Then, I add, “I need your help, mother.”

Flying into the middle of the air, I look down at everyone, filling every space with my power, leaving them in astonishment. They watch my power. They watch how it glows and overwhelms any alpha aura. They watch as I clasp every control in the spot.

My voice is not my own. It is of many voices. My throat releases tones coming from other witches, and I’ve never felt so close to my mother before. Even in the void, it wasn’t this close.

I feel as though I could feel her breath on my skin, and it’s all the courage I need to say these: “The need to destroy each other ends with the start of my reign. I vow to be the balance between each and every breed today. Witches, werewolves, hunters, and humans. No one must suffer at the hands of another. Every food chain or cycle severs today with the birth of a new witch.”

When I’m done, my body goes back to normalcy, and all the wolves howl into the air. Giving Chester and his men the order to take the triplets out of here, I bow lightly at each of them. “Luna Olivia. Alpha Damon. Alpha Frederick. Alpha Lucas. Alpha Xander. I know this war doesn’t end today.” Darkness doesn’t end in a day, but I continue, “but your species, under my watch, must one day learn to do right by one another. If not this generation of ours, but the other.”

And that’s all I needed to say before I left the cabin.

“Ugh, what the heck…?” This is the third time I’m holding myself back from breaking this door to pieces.

I just saved the triplets from eternal torture, and this is what I get? I just saved Chester and his men from dying at the hands of Olivia and those menacing four alphas, and I must remain in this room, locked, because they don’t want the kingdom to know of my return yet.

It seems rumours have spread that I now have my powers, and Chester wouldn’t want attention placed on me, especially with the curse I placed on the kingdom. Honestly, I appreciate that he’s trying to help me cover my tracks, but then, I don’t want to be locked in this room.

Not long after, the door opens, and it is Chester. “Please tell me you’re getting me out of here.”

I don’t know, but maybe because of the great power that has erupted out of me today, I feel so bubbly inside.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m taking you to the triplets.” Chester says on my walk down a path.

“How’s their condition?”

“Fairly better. I figured since they are your beloved, you’d be longing to see them.” He darts his eyes at me, watching me from the corners.

I smile and… lie? “You and I both know I don’t yearn for them.”

“If you say so.” As I want to enter the room, he adds, “thank you, Kaya. You portrayed the acts of a queen tonight. The knights, including I, owe you our lives.”

My smile grows stronger as I enter the triplet chambers and pause to take a long look at them. They seem peaceful, as the crinkles on their foreheads and the horror that I sniffed earlier in their aura are gone, and it warms my heart to know that.

They have been taken care of too, their heads stitched back and their skin gaining warmth once again, its colour settling back to its initial flavour.

I take a seat at the other end of the bed and look at the three of them as they lie on a monochromatic, king-sized bed. I’ve never seen them so vulnerable, so weak, or so in need of help before.

Tonight, I see a different side of them. I see a side of them that needs help, a side that shows that they too need love, care, and attention.

My thoughts wreck suddenly as a wave overwhelms my senses. Gravity changes course, and I’m brought back to the front of my house, standing in front of a burial ground… oh, fuck. Burial grounds?

“Kaya.” In unison, the triplets speak.
