Sacrificed To The Triplet Alpha Kings novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101: We leave For Shadowmere In Three Days

Finn nodded and fell into step behind him, following as Lucian made his way through the Blackwood estate toward the main administrative building.

The walk gave Lucian time to process. His mind was racing with possibilities. Why would Nicholas call both of them? What could be so important that it required an immediate summons during training?

Unless it was about the plan. About Shadowmere. About her.

The thought made Zev surge inside him, eager and focused.

Lucian forced the wolf back down. Control. They needed control. They’d spent two weeks practicing control, refining their ability to maintain human composure while the wolves screamed for action.

By the time he reached Nicholas’s office, his expression was composed, his body language controlled.

He pushed open the office door.

Sebastian was already there, seated in his usual chair near the window. He was fully clothed but there was a rawness to his energy that suggested he’d also come straight from training or some other physical activity. His dark eyes looked up as Lucian entered.

Nicholas was behind his desk, looking exactly as he always did....composed, controlled, alpha in every sense of the word. But there was an undercurrent of intensity to him that suggested he’d been waiting for this moment.

"Lucian," Nicholas said, acknowledging his youngest brother’s arrival.

"Nicholas. Sebastian." Lucian nodded to both of them, then waited.

Nicholas stood from behind his desk and moved to the front of it, leaning back against the polished mahogany. His posture was relaxed, but his eyes were sharp.

"We leave for Shadowmere in three days," Nicholas said simply. "I hope you’re both ready."

Sebastian raised his head and looked at his eldest brother, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.

"What sort of question is that?" Sebastian asked, his voice carrying an edge of possession. "You know we’ve been ready since the day she left the estate."

There was raw hunger in his tone. Not just physical, though that was certainly present, but deeper. Recognition of what was about to happen. Of the fact that they were finally going to see their mate. Finally going to be in the same space with her.

Lucian nodded in agreement, his gold eyes flickering with Zev’s agreement. The wolf was vibrating inside him, excited and focused on the coming journey.

Sebastian turned to look at Lucian directly.

"Hope you’ve gotten your wolf under control," Sebastian said, his voice taking on a more serious tone. "I don’t want us appearing feral in front of Shadowmere when we get there. We need to look like we’re there for the Summit, not like three desperate alphas hunting our mate."

It was a valid concern. The three of them together, consumed by the bond, desperate to claim Lilith, if they appeared unstable or uncontrolled, it would raise immediate suspicion. Garrett would know something was wrong. The other alphas attending the Summit would sense the desperation.

They needed to appear normal. Composed and In control.
