Sacrificed To The Triplet Alpha Kings novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57: How Is She? Is She Back To Normal?

The morning light was still soft when Lilith’s eyes opened.

For a moment, she didn’t move. Didn’t think. Just existed in that strange space between sleep and consciousness where nothing made sense yet. The world was quiet. The estate was quiet. Even the birds hadn’t started their morning chorus.

She blinked slowly, and her vision cleared.

Agnes was sitting in the chair beside her bed.

The old housekeeper was leaning back in the chair, her head tilted against the high back, her hands folded in her lap. She was asleep, had been asleep for hours, judging by the way her body had settled into the cushions. But even in sleep, there was an alertness to her. A readiness that suggested she would wake the moment Lilith needed her.

Lilith stared at her for a long moment.

The sun was rising slowly, painting everything in shades of amber and gold. Agnes’s weathered face was peaceful in the morning light. Her grey hair was slightly disheveled, her clothes wrinkled from a night spent sitting vigil.

She had stayed. Through the entire night.

Lilith tried to sit up.

The moment she moved, pain exploded through her entire body. Not the sharp, manageable pain of bruising. Not the ache of sore muscles. This was something deeper. Something that suggested every single cell in her body had been brutalized and was still recovering from the assault.

She gasped, and the sound was sharp in the quiet room.

Agnes’s eyes snapped open immediately.

The old housekeeper was on her feet in seconds, moving to the bed with the kind of purposeful grace that came from decades of service. She placed her weathered hand on Lilith’s forehead, her fingers cool against the skin.

Her expression shifted. Relief flooded across her features.

"No fever," Agnes said quietly. "Thank the gods, no fever."

She withdrew her hand and looked at Lilith with eyes that held genuine care.

"Do you remember what happened yesterday?" She asked her, her voice filled with concern.

Lilith looked at her and shook her head, indicating that she doesn’t remember.

Agnes looked at her face and then said " It is okay if you do not remember, what matters now is that you are awake"

Lilith nodded in agreement.

"Do you need to use the bathroom, child?" Agnes asked.

Lilith nodded. Her throat was dry. Speaking seemed like too much effort.

Agnes helped her up slowly. Every movement was careful, deliberate, designed not to aggravate whatever injuries Lilith had sustained. The older woman wrapped her arm around Lilith’s waist and supported most of her weight as she guided her toward the bathroom.

Lilith’s legs were unsteady. Her entire body ached. But worst was the burning pain between her legs.....a deep, throbbing ache that suggested she’d been used thoroughly and brutally.

Agnes helped her to the bathroom door and then withdrew, giving her privacy.

The moment Lilith was alone, Agnes eyes glazed off immediately, the mindlink opened instantly....she could feel Sebastian on the other end, alert and waiting.

"Alpha Sebastian, she’s awake"

The response came back immediately, sharp with tension.

"How is she? Is she back to normal?"
