15 Chapter 15: Wedding Night Nightmare
I couldn’t breathe. Every bit of oxygen in my lungs seemed to evaporate at the sight before me. My mates–my husbands–naked and entangled with Lilith Thorne on what should have been our wedding bed.
“What is this?” The question escaped my lips in a whisper before I could stop it.
Lilith’s laugh cut through the tension like a knife. “Oh, sweetheart. Did you actually think they wanted you?” She stretched languidly between them, completely at ease in her nakedness.
I looked from one triplet to another, searching for any sign of remorse or hesitation in their faces. There was none. Only cool indifference and annoyance at my interruption.
Kaelen’s green eyes narrowed. “You can stand there and watch, or you can leave. Either way, you’re not joining us.”
My voice trembled despite my attempt to sound strong. “This is our wedding night.”,
“A wedding in name only,” Orion replied, his fingers still lazily trailing along Lilith’s bare hip. “We fulfilled our obligation to the Moon Goddess by marking you. Nothing says we have to spend our nights with you.”
I clutched the thin robe tighter around my body, suddenly feeling ridiculous in the revealing lingerie underneath. They’d never intended for me to wear it for them. This had been planned- another humiliation designed to break me.
“You knew,” I said, understanding dawning. “You knew I’d be brought here like this.”
Ronan shrugged, his blue eyes–so similar to mine–cold and dismissive. “Consider it a lesson, Seraphina. You may wear our marks, but she has our attention.”
To emphasize his point, he leaned down and kissed Lilith deeply. She moaned against his mouth, her eyes still fixed on me over his shoulder, gleaming with triumph.
I took a step back toward the door, desperate to escape this nightmare. My hand gripped the handle and twisted–but it didn’t budge.
“It’s locked,” Kaelen informed me casually, a cruel smile playing at his lips.
Panic rose in my chest. “Let me out. Now”
“What’s the matter, Luna?” Lilith mocked, emphasizing my new title with contempt. “Don’t you want to learn how to please your mates? You could take notes.”
I yanked harder on the door, “Open it!”
“Not yet, Kaelen said. He turned back to Lilith, cupping her face and kissing her passionately.

The sight pierced my heart, but worse was the strange burning sensation that began to spread through my body, originating from the three fresh mating marks on my shoulder.
I pounded on the door. “This is sick! Let me out!”
“She sounds upset,” Lilith giggled between kisses. “Poor little Omega, did you really think three Alphas would be satisfied with trash like you?”
Ronan began removing what little clothing Lilith still wore, revealing her body inch by inch. “Lilith is more than happy to take your place, aren’t you, sweetheart?”
“Always,” she purred, arching as his hands explored her curves.
I slid down against the door, the burning in my marks intensifying. I’d heard stories about mate bonds, how they created connections between wolves that were both emotional and physical.
What I hadn’t known was how it would feel to have those bonds violated–to feel echoes of their
pleasure with another woman.
“Please,” I begged, hating the weakness in my voice. “Just let me leave.”
“The door will unlock when we’re finished,” Orion said, positioning himself between Lilith’s thighs. “Consider this part of your wedding gift–seeing what real desire looks like.”
The pain was becoming unbearable now. Each touch they placed on Lilith’s skin sent searing agony through my marks, as if the Moon Goddess herself was punishing me for their betrayal.
“We never wanted you, Seraphina,” Kaelen stated coldly. “You were forced on us by some cosmic joke. Did you really think we’d honor a matę bond with the daughter of a traitor?”
Their words cut deeper than any physical pain, but both were quickly becoming too much to bear. I curled into myself, back still pressed against the door, as I watched Kaelen kiss down Lilith’s neck, making her moan loudly.
“You see,” Ronan added, “Lilith has been warming our beds for years. Why would we give that up for someone like you?”
Lilith’s triumphant eyes found mine again. “I’ve had them all, Seraphina. Sometimes together, sometimes one by one. All those nights you spent alone in your little servant’s room, I was here, learning exactly how they like to be pleased.”
My vision began to blur as the pain from the mate bonds intensified. It felt like acid was coursing through my veins, burning me from the inside out. Each touch between them sent fresh waves of agony through my body.
“You can watch or you can close your eyes,” Orion said, his voice husky with desire as he began to move against Lilith. “But you’re staying until we’re done.
I tried to look away, but the pain kept drawing my attention back to them. The bond was forcing

me to witness their betrayal, making sure I felt every moment of their rejection. Tears streamed down my face as I struggled to maintain consciousness through the torment.
“Look at her,” Lilith laughed breathlessly as Kaelen’s hands roamed her body. “Pathetic. Even with three mates, she’s still unwanted.”
The room began to spin around me. The pain from the mate bonds had spread from my shoulder throughout my entire body, setting every nerve ending on fire. I could barely hear their continued taunts over the roaring in my ears.
“This is what happens when you dare to think you belong with us,” one of them said, though in, my agony I couldn’t tell which one.
I pressed my hands against my ears, trying to block out Lilith’s increasingly loud moans and the triplets‘ grunts of pleasure. But there was no escaping the pain. The mate bond made sure of that–forcing me to feel echoes of their physical pleasure while enduring the emotional devastation of their rejection.
“Please stop,” I whispered, knowing they wouldn’t listen. “It hurts.”
“Good,” came Kaelen’s cold reply. “Remember this pain, Seraphina. Remember your place.”
My body convulsed as another wave of agony washed over me. I couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think. The room tilted dangerously as darkness began to creep in from the edges of my vision.
Through blurry eyes, I watched as they continued their passionate encounter, completely unbothered by my suffering. Lilith’s face contorted in pleasure, not pain. The contrast was the final blow to my already shattered heart.
“I… can’t…” I gasped, feeling consciousness slipping away.
The last things I registered were the sound of Lilith’s ecstatic cries, the triplets‘ names on her lips, and their responding moans of pleasure. My body gave in to the overwhelming pain, darkness finally offering mercy as I collapsed fully onto the floor.
The last thing in my ears being their moans.
