Pregnant with the Alpha king's Triplets

Episode 9

The palace shook violently as another explosion echoed through the night.

Dust rained from the ceiling.

Outside, terrified screams filled the air.

The Alpha King rushed to the shattered window. Flames were already rising from the eastern wall, where dozens of guards battled masked attackers.

The palace was under siege.

The captain of the Royal Guards burst into the room, his armor stained with blood.

My King, the enemy has broken through the eastern gate. We are losing men.

The Alpha King's eyes turned icy.

Seal the inner palace.

The captain hesitated.

They are not attacking the treasury or the armory.

The Alpha King frowned.

Then what are they after?

The captain looked toward Lyria.

They are asking for the future Luna.

Silence fell over the room.

Lyria's heartbeat pounded in her ears.

They knew.

Someone had told them she was the woman from the prophecy.

The Alpha King looked at the physician.

Take her to the hidden passage beneath the west tower. Do not let anyone see you.

The physician nodded.

Come with me.

Lyria refused to move.

No.

Everyone turned toward her.

The Alpha King stepped closer.

This is not the time to argue.

You keep telling me to run while everyone else risks their lives because of me.

You are not the reason they are here.

Then why are they asking me?

He looked into her eyes.

Because they know what you are carrying.

Before she could ask another question, the palace doors burst open.

A wounded guard stumbled inside.

Blood covered his chest.

My King...

He collapsed onto the floor.

The captain knelt beside him.

Speak.

The guard struggled to breathe.

There is...

There is an Alpha leading them.

The room fell silent.

The Alpha King's expression hardened.

Who

The guard whispered a name before taking his final breath.

Alpha Darius.

The captain looked horrified.

Impossible.

He died ten years ago.

The Alpha King's jaw tightened.

That is what everyone believed.

A deafening roar echoed across the palace grounds.

It was so powerful that every werewolf inside the palace felt their wolf tremble.

Lyria covered her ears.

The Alpha King's face darkened.

He is here.

Without another word, he rushed from the room.

The captain followed close behind.

Lyria stood frozen until another explosion shook the floor beneath her feet.

The physician grabbed her arm.

We have to leave now.

He led her through a narrow corridor hidden behind a bookshelf.

The passage was dark and cold.

Only the light from his torch guided their way.

After several minutes, they reached a heavy wooden door.

The physician pushed it open.

Outside was a dense forest behind the palace walls.

You will be safe here until the battle is over.

Lyria looked back toward the burning palace.

I cannot leave him.

The physician sighed.

If you stay, you may lose your life.

Before Lyria could answer, a familiar voice echoed from the darkness.

You are not going anywhere.

A tall figure stepped into the moonlight.

It was Princess Selene.

She was no longer wearing her elegant gown.

Instead, she was dressed in black leather armor, a sword hanging from her waist.

The physician stared at her in disbelief.

Your Highness...

Selene smiled.

You finally know who I really am.

In one swift movement, she drew her sword.

Before the physician could react, the blade pierced his chest.

His eyes widened.

Blood spilled onto the ground.

Lyria screamed as he collapsed at her feet.

The physician looked at her one last time.

Run...

Those were his final words.

Selene slowly pulled the sword free.

Blood dripped from the blade.

Her sweet smile was gone.

Only hatred remained.

You have caused me enough trouble.

Lyria backed away in terror.

Why are you doing this?

Because everything that belongs to me is being stolen by you.

The throne.

The King.

And now the prophecy.

Lyria shook her head.

I never wanted any of this.

It does not matter what you wanted.

Selene lifted her sword.

You should have died the night you met him.

Lyria turned and ran into the forest.

Branches whipped against her face as she raced through the darkness.

Behind her, Selene followed without mercy.

You cannot escape me.

Lyria's lungs burned.

She could hear Selene getting closer.

Just as she stumbled over a fallen tree, a powerful Alpha aura exploded through the forest.

The ground trembled.

Selene stopped running.

Her face turned pale.

Slowly, she turned around.

The Alpha King stepped out from the shadows.

His silver eyes glowed with deadly rage.

He looked at the physician's lifeless body.

Then at the bloodstained sword in Selene's hand.

His voice was colder than the night itself.

Did you kill him?

Selene's smile slowly disappeared.

For the first time, she looked afraid.
