I scoffed. “It doesn’t matter anymore.”
Cade squeezed his face into displeasure as he stepped closer to me, “What doesn’t matter anymore?” His blue eyes turned a shade darker than they should.
“You are our mate, Isn’t that what you wanted all along?” Kael spoke and I snapped my gaze at him.
It was too late! Nothing could ever make me want them. I loathed them so much that it hurt. Perhaps that’s what happens to a broken soul who was given a second chance.
“Iris…” Zane called. He was the calmest of the three, his eyes were soft, trying to reach out to me and I stepped back avoiding him like a plague.
They were monsters. All three of them.
I find it hard to breathe but this was my decision to make. Gone was the fragile old me.
“I, Iris Orlene…” I stared at the triplets dead in the eyes, inhaling sharply. Not a single drop of emotion was left in me.
“Reject you all three Alphas; Cade, Kael, and Zane Verek to be my mate.”
***
Iris Oren, once the cherished daughter of Alpha Oren Roland and Luna Selene of the Blackbane Pack, I faced a dire accusation of treason for allegedly poisoning the former beta who’s now the current alpha, Alpha Darius Verek, the current ruthless leader who betrayed and murdered my parents when I was just a kid, accused me of their murder and took over the alpha throne. Now, I am a despised maid in my own pack. I am publicly condemned in the council room, surrounded by hostile pack members, including Alpha Darius, his sons who are triplets, Cade, Kael, and Zane, my childhood sweet hearts, and my former best friend Liora. Despite my weak protests of innocence, no one believed me, and Darius sentenced me to death by being buried alive but the council pleaded as he shifted the punishment to 200 strokes of whips with sulfur powder but unknown to me, it was changed to a silver powder, very dangerous to werewolves.
During this brutal public punishment, I couldn’t make it, I died.
Waking up again, I realised I'd been brought back to my past life, on my 18th birthday, days before my death.
In my past life, I am a weak and wolfless omega who can’t even defend herself and has loved the triplets so dearly that I could do anything for them without considering my dignity. Now I am reborn, I am determined to change my fate.
Dearest Readers, As you embark on this journey within the pages of my book, I want to take a moment to speak to you from the heart. I pour a little piece of myself into every story I craft, and this one in particular, holds a special place in my heart. In the chapters that unfold, you might find your emotions stirred in unexpected ways. There may be moments that tug at your heartstrings, perhaps even bring tears to your eyes. You might feel frustration, annoyance, or a deep sense of empathy with the characters and their experiences. Please know that any emotional response you have is valid and understood. As the author, my intention is to create a story that resonates, that feels real, and that explores the complexities of the human (or perhaps not-so-human!) experience. Sometimes, those explorations can lead us through challenging emotional landscapes. If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, please bear with me. Trust in the journey I’ve set out to tell. Every twist, every turn, every moment of heartache or frustration is part of the larger narrative, and I hope that by the end, you’ll find meaning and connection within it all. I am just the storyteller, weaving together the threads of imagination and emotion. Your engagement, your feelings, and your willingness to immerse yourselves in these worlds mean everything to me. Thank you for opening your hearts and minds to my words. With all my love and gratitude, Authoress Blessing Oguwike.
