Bound to the Triplet Alphas

ARIA POV

Before I could knock, the door of Alpha Darius’ office crashed open. His enormous hand grabbed my arm and jerked me inside so hard that I staggered and nearly fell to my knees.

"You’ve caused enough trouble," he yelled, slamming the door behind us.

My heart pounded against my ribcage. Two guards stood at the corners of the room, faces blank but eyes alert. I straightened my spine, refusing to cower despite the horror that was creeping up my throat.

"I didn’t ask to be summoned here," I murmured, shocked by the calm in my voice.

Alpha Darius circled his desk, like a predator. He was much bigger than Kael, taller than Jaxon, and lacked Lucien’s kindness. His eyes were cold steel, unlike the golden warmth that his boys had inherited.

"Do you have any idea what you’ve done?" He slammed his fist upon the desk. A fissure shattered the wood. "Generations of careful planning, bloodline preservation—all threatened because of one worthless omega."

I flinched but stood my ground. "I didn’t choose this."

"No?" He leaned forward. "Elder Malin informed me that you’ve been seeing visions. Power awakening. Isn’t this very convenient timing?"

The allegations cut deep, but Lucien’s medicines allowed me to think clearly. "I can’t control the mate bond any more than your sons can."

"Renounce it." His voice lowered to a deadly whisper. "Publicly. Tonight."
