Offered to the Triplet Alphas

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Surrounded by Love

His kiss was desperate, almost angry—the kiss of a man who’d been fighting himself for too long.

And despite everything, despite all the complications, all the reasons this was a bad idea, I found myself kissing him back.

Leo’s hands tightened on my waist, pulling me closer as if afraid I might disappear. The scent of sandalwood enveloped me, intoxicating and warm. My fingers tangled in his hair, my body responding to his touch with an intensity that surprised even me.

When we finally broke apart, we were both breathing hard. Leo’s forehead rested against mine, his eyes closed as if savoring the moment.

“That wasn’t a rejection,” he murmured, his voice rough.

I couldn’t help the small laugh that escaped me. “No, it wasn’t.”

His eyes opened, those grayish-brown depths studying me with an intensity that made my heart skip. “Are you sure about this, Hazel? There’s no going back.”

Before I could answer, the door to the cell burst open with a bang. Three identical figures rushed in, their movements halting abruptly as they took in the scene.

“We heard you both go quiet and got worried—” Lucas began, then stopped mid-sentence.

I felt my face flush hot with embarrassment as I realized what they were seeing. Leo and I still stood close, my lips swollen from his kiss, both of us looking thoroughly disheveled.

“Well, well,” Liam said, a slow grin spreading across his face. “Looks like someone finally stopped being stubborn.”

Lucas crossed his arms, his expression unreadable for a moment before softening into something almost like relief. “It’s about time.”

I blinked in surprise. “You’re... not upset?”

“Why would we be upset?” Lucas asked, raising an eyebrow. “We’ve been waiting for you two to stop dancing around each other.”

“It was getting annoying watching how emotionally constipated you both are,” Liam added with a laugh.

I noticed Levi hadn’t said anything yet, which was unusual for him. His face was serious as he studied Leo and me.

“Levi?” I called uncertainly.
