Fated to the Alpha–And His Triplet Brothers novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186: We win or we fall.

**~ Cayden’s POV ~**

Aurora suddenly jumped up, eyes wide as she stared at the woman standing behind me.

"Sister?" she whispered.

The woman’s eyes welled up. "Aurora?"

I turned to get a better look. They looked so alike—same red hair, same piercing green eyes. Their features mirrored each other almost perfectly.

Aurora didn’t wait another second. She ran into the woman’s arms, and they embraced tightly, clinging to each other as years of separation poured out through their tears.

I had never seen Aurora cry. Not once.

Even now—bleeding profusely on the floor

she still tried to hold her head high. That was Aurora. She had faced countless challenges and never once broken. She was rigid. Cold. Unshaken.

But now... she was crying. Aurora was really crying.

I turned to Lilith, who mirrored my expression—utter confusion, disbelief. We were both lost.

The woman beside Aurora clutched her tightly, sobbing.

"Oh my God... It’s really her," the woman whispered. "I can’t believe this..."

Aurora slowly raised her head, her voice trembling.

"Mom and Dad told me you were dead," she said. "They told me you ran away... that a werewolf killed you. Alice... you’re really alive."

They cried harder, holding each other tightly.

Alice. So her name is Alice. And they were sisters.

Since when did Aurora have parents? I’d never thought to ask. Never thought to look that deeply into her past.

Lilith stood slowly. "You two... you’re sisters?" she asked.

Alice turned, wiping her tears. "Yes, Lilith. She’s the sister I always told you about. The one I was separated from when I ran away."

Aurora’s eyes widened. "Wait...what? Mom and Dad stopped you from seeing me?"

Alice nodded solemnly. "Yes. They took me to perform the Crescent Ritual. After I became a Crescent, they kept me away from you. Said I’d be a bad influence."

"But... they told me you died," Aurora whispered.

"I’m sorry," Alice said gently. "I’m sorry they lied to you."

"Where are they now?"

"They’re dead," Aurora replied. Her tone was hollow, but not completely sad

more resolved than broken.

"They left me in Dahlia’s care," she added.

Alice’s expression dimmed, but she didn’t crumble.

Aurora wiped the last of her tears away, and I could see the version of her I knew returning

"I was kept under Dahlia’s care," she explained. "She trained me to be a good witch. I learned a lot from her. Too much. Especially how to wield dark magic."

She paused. "Until I realized she was not the person I should be learning from. And that’s when I turned—when I helped the High House. Their current Alpha."

She looked directly at me. Alice followed her gaze, immediately understanding.

"She’s the one," Alice whispered. "The one you told me about."

Aurora nodded. "I’ve been in the High House ever since. That’s why you never saw me in the streets. When I was unfrozen... I became the wolf here."

"I came looking for you," Alice said softly. "You were the first person I searched for when I got free. But I couldn’t find you."

"I’ve always been here," Aurora replied, her voice low.

I blinked, absorbing it all. "Okay... let me get this straight. You’re sisters. You" I pointed at Alice, "you’re a Crescent. And you" I gestured to Aurora, "are a witch."
