Claimed By The Alpha Triplets

NAERIS'S POV

“The Vaelens are hereby sentenced to death by the gallows for treachery.” I watched from a corner as they dragged my mum and dad, hands bound with chains, to the front of the field, but there was no sign of remorse in their eyes.

“Any last words?” One of the gamma's voices rang out, and I fidgeted as his eyes glued onto me once for longer than usual.

“If we had the opportunity, we would do it again. The King is making a mistake by going against other packs unnecessarily.” My mum yelled, and I could feel a lump in my throat as I heard the words protrude out of her mouth.

If only they could be so humble as to beg for their lives, I might have been able to get on Talon's good side so he could talk to his father.

But there was no remorse. It made me wonder if, for some reason, maybe they were right, but now wasn't the time to make assumptions.

“Very well then. Proceed.” The gamma ordered, and they dragged them up to the podium while his eyes settled on me, and I saw him whisper into the ears of another warrior with his eyes still fixated on me, where I stood in front of the crowd, tears slipping out of my eyes.

“Come with me.” I felt a cold tap on my shoulder and I jerked, swiveling to see the same guard that the gamma had whispered something into his ears.

“Why?” Those were the only words that could come out of my mouth as he began binding my hands with chains and dragged me towards my family.

“Vaelen are traitors, and you are one of them. You should be sentenced.” He whispered into my ear, and I kept struggling harder in the chains.

“No! No, you can't do this.” I yelled, but it was quite visible that I was overpowered and had absolutely no say.

“Talon. Talon, please.” I yelled to Alpha's son, who was also my mate, but his face remained stoic and cold, clearly letting me know that he had no choice in the matter.

I kept struggling, thrashing out and throwing a tantrum as I wiggled against the chains till I was able to slip away and run in the direction of Talon and his father, the Alpha.

“Please, please, you have to spare my life. I didn't do anything wrong. My parents are traitors, but you can't judge the sins of the father unto the children.” I begged on my knees, sniffing as tears blurred my vision, as I turned to stare at Talon again, but this time, he wasn't even looking at me.

His
