The Triplet Alphas' Secret Mate

Chapter 134: The Familiar Bangle

Leo’s POV

​The training room was filled with the sound of my breathing—heavy and full of a restless energy that felt like it was clawing at my skin. I had been hitting the heavy bag for two hours, my knuckles raw and bleeding, but I didn’t care. Physical pain was the only thing that could drown out the silence of this empty life.

​The door opened, and the scent of jasmine drifted in. I didn’t even have to look to know it was Bianca. After a year of living in the same house, just the smell of her made my wolf snarl deep in my mind.

​"Leo, please," she said, stepping closer. She reached out a hand to touch my sweaty shoulder. "It’s been a year. You can’t keep acting like I don’t exist. We are married. We have a pack to lead together."

​Before her fingers could even graze my skin, I spun around. My movement was a blur of anger. I grabbed her wrist, my grip tight enough to make her gasp in pain. I leaned in, my eyes glowing with rage.

​"Don’t touch me," I hissed. My voice was like a serrated blade. "I told you that the day we stood at that altar, and I meant it. You might have a ring on your finger, Bianca, but you are nothing to me."
