Triplet Alphas Gifted Luna novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46 Presents

Thea’s marks were sore but beautiful the following morning. When she looked at them in the mirror for the first time, she cried. Her fingers traced the lines and shapes that were still forming on her skin. Down her shoulders, her back, across her collar bones, up her neck. Lizzy was right. Something felt familiar about them, but she couldn’t place it.

Alaric walked up behind her in their bathroom and kissed his mark.

“They’re beautiful,” Alaric said. “You’re beautiful.”

Alaric traced his part of the design with his fingers.

Pleasure and warmth radiated through them both.

“It’s more than a dream come true,” Thea said. “Before we got together, sometimes | would let myself think about us being mates, you guys marking me, what my marks would look like. I never imagined this. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

“It’s the most beautiful mark I’ve ever seen,” he said. “ And the biggest.”

Thea laughed. Most marks were the size of the palm of a hand. Alphas’ marks were bigger. No one had ever seen three Alpha marks on one person. They seemed to feed off each other and grow exponentially.

“It’s like you guys are screaming to everyone that I’m yours,” Thea said.

“We are,” Alaric said. “People need to know you’re ours, that we’ll protect you, and that they should stay far away from you.”

She turned her head around, asking for a kiss. He turned her body around, brought her into a kiss, and held her tight.

Kai and Conri came in, still waking up. They went straight to their marks, hands roaming Thea’s body, sending relaxing sparks everywhere. She felt the pull to the triplets growing. She craved them, needed them near, needed to touch them.

The triplets’ eyes glazed over.

“Dad wants us in his office,” Alaric said. “Now.”

“We smell like sex,” Thea said. “I’m rinsing off real quick.”

The triplets joined her in the shower, and soon they were all sitting in the Alpha’s office. The triplets couldn’t stop staring at their marks, caressing them, kissing them. It sent sparks through all of them.

“Try to pay attention,” Alpha Ulric said. “Liam has his Teport on the mating ceremony.”

Thea sat up straight, but she kept her hands on her mates. The triplets also sat up but kept contact with their marks on Thea.

“There were a few stray wolves that didn’t belong to our pack there last night,” Liam said. “We’re not sure how they got onto pack lands. They never made a move on the future Luna. That’s why we didn’t act. They masked their scents, but we planted bugs on them and are tracking them as we speak. If I were to make a guess, I’d say they were doing recon to find out if Thea is goddess gifted or what her gift is. Maybe to scout out our defenses, her vulnerabilities.”

“From last night,” the Alpha said. “They would see that she is unshifted. While last night’s ceremony was powerful, it wasn’t out of the realm of possibility for a regular Luna. They may come to the conclusion that she isn’t goddess gifted, just a good Luna.”

“We can hope,” Liam said. “We know no outsiders were at the oath ceremony, so they couldn’t know about that because no one in that room would ever talk about it to anyone else.”

“I don’t like the fact that these wolves got onto pack lands without us knowing,” Kai said.

“I think that suggests witches are involved,” Alaric said.

“I agree,” Liam said.

“We should ask my father to find out what he can from the witch in his brother’s pack,” Thea said.

“I’ll talk to him tonight,” the Alpha said.

“While you have bugs on those wolves, would this be a good time to send me off pack lands as a trap?” Thea said.

The Alpha looked at Liam, mind linking.
