The Triplet Alphas' Secret Mate

Chapter 137: They Are Hiding Something

​Leo’s POV

​Camilla and Talia both fell to their knees, their hands clasped in front of them as if they were praying to the Moon Goddess herself. "Please, Alpha Leo... please," they begged, their voices trembling with a desperation that only made my lip curl in disgust.

​Father Lennox stepped forward, his expression carved from stone. He looked at the sisters, then at the healers who were struggling to keep Bianca steady. "Go with your sister," he commanded, his voice leaving no room for argument. "Take her to the medical wing. I will settle this."

​They didn’t wait for a second invitation. They scrambled out of the room with the healers, the sound of their sobbing fading down the hallway until only the six of us remained: me, Liam, Leon, Father Levi, Father Lennox, and Father Louis.

​Father Lennox turned to me, his eyes narrowing. "Leo, I know what she did was wrong. I know the gravity of her actions, but—"

​"Father, there is no ’but,’" I cut him off, my voice sharp and final.

​"There is," he insisted, stepping closer, his scent flaring as if to remind me that he was still the head of this family. "You are forgetting she is your mate. The bond is sacred, Leo. You cannot simply discard a marked mate because of a lapse in judgment."

​I frowned, a bitter taste filling my mouth. It was obvious Father still believed that the Moon-Lily mark on my neck was real. He still thought the Goddess had sanctioned this misery.

​Liam stepped up beside me, his shoulder brushing mine. "So what?" he spat, his voice dripping with hate. "Even if she has his mark, he is going to reject her. Bianca and her sisters are not worthy to be Lunas. A Luna who uses dark magic is a poison to the pack. Imagine what else they’ll do once they realize their tricks aren’t working anymore."

​Father Levi’s face was a mask of purple-tinged fury. "We will caution them! We will bring them before the Council and ensure they are disciplined. But you boys cannot divorce them. Under the High Treaty, a divorce is only permitted if the mate is caught being unfaithful. That is the law."

"No. I am
