"Tell me, Barbie..." Dante's voice was low and sinful as he leaned in closer. His fingers trailed down my neck, slow and inviting, making my breath hitch. "Are you trying to run from us... or are you waiting for one of us to catch you?" I hated how my b^dy reacted, how w^rmth curled between my th^ghs despite the warning bells in my mind. "You're trembling," Dante murmured, his l^ps brushing the sensitive sk^n of my neck. Knox chuckled, his grip tightening. "You're so s^ft, Little Moon. So e^sy to te^se. Tell me..." His voice dipped lower, "Are you shaking because you're afraid... or because you're turn^d on?" A small g^sp escaped before I could stop it. Adonis's gaze darkened, his thumb dragging over my l^p. "We should punish her for trying to leave," he mused. Dante's smirk was pure sin. "Oh, I have so many ideas." "We could ti^ her up," Knox added casually, fingers tracing slow, lazy circles against my h^p. "Make her beg for mercy." Three ruthless Alphas. Her step-uncles. Her fated mates. In her past life, Adonis, Knox, and Dante Logan hated her-tormented her, rejected her, and cast her aside. She died knowing they had never loved her. But fate has given her a second chance. Now, she's running before they realize the truth-that she is their mate. Because once the Logan Alphas find out? They'll never let her go.

STEPUNCLES ALPHA'S PUNISHES ME EVERYNIGHT Chapter 1 No.1

AUTUMN POV

The grand hall of the Logan estate was suffocating, the thick air pressing against my skin like an unbearable weight. Every eye in the room was on me-some filled with judgment, others with curiosity. But the worst of them? The three pairs of silver-blue eyes that had once looked at me with love, now burning with cold fury.

Adonis sat in the center, his presence an unmovable force. Knox stood beside him, unreadable, calculating. And Dante... Dante leaned against the table, his fingers drumming lightly, his expression unreadable, but his eyes? They were darker than I'd ever seen them.

Knox unfurled the scroll in his hand, the parchment crinkling as he spoke. "The evidence speaks for itself." His voice was calm, but his tone carried weight. "And we have testimony."

My breath hitched as the side doors creaked open. Two figures stepped inside. I felt the color drain from my face.

Ivy and Rowan. My supposed best friends. My confidants. The ones I trusted most.

"No." The word escaped my lips before I could stop it. "No, no, no..."

Ivy wouldn't meet my gaze, her head bowed as she stepped forward. But Rowan? His eyes were steady, cold.

"Speak," Adonis commanded.

Ivy swallowed hard. "I saw Autumn arguing with Thorne three nights ago. She threatened him."

The weight of the accusation crashed into me. My throat clenched. "He was blocking my return to the pack!" My voice wavered, but I forced myself to look them in the eyes. "We argued, yes, but I never threatened his life!"

Rowan stepped forward. "I saw her retrieving herbs from the eastern forest-wolfsbane and nightshade. She said it was for protection, but..."

"But what?" I snapped, my voice sharp, desperate. "You know exactly why I was gathering those herbs! I was helping Healer Willow prepare a salve for the warriors-nothing more!"

His expression didn't waver. "You told me yourself that wolfsbane in high doses is lethal."

I gritted my teeth. "Because it is. That doesn't mean I used it!"

Dante pushed off the table, walking toward me, his pine scent wrapping around me like a cruel reminder of what I had lost. He stopped just inches away, his voice dropping to a soft tone. "I want to believe you, Little Moon. More than anything."

Little Moon. The nickname he had given me when we were younger. My heart cracked. I searched his gaze for the warmth that used to be there. For the protector I had known since childhood.

"Then believe me." My voice wobbled. "Someone is setting me up."

For a moment-just a moment-doubt flickered in his eyes.

Then Adonis slammed his hand on the table. "Enough!" The sound echoed through the hall, and my body flinched involuntarily. "The council will deliberate on your punishment."

My lips parted, disbelief washing over me. "What about a fair trial?" My voice rose. "What about justice? Since when do the Logans condemn without a proper investigation?"

Knox stepped closer, tilting his head slightly as he studied me. "You speak of justice while Beta Thorne lies dead? Your dagger in his heart?"

A sharp laugh bubbled out of me-hollow, broken. "A dagger anyone could have taken from my quarters! I was helping Healer Willow all that night-ask her!"

Adonis's voice was cold. "Healer Willow confirms you left her side for over an hour."

An hour? My stomach dropped. That wasn't possible. I hadn't left except to... Oh gods. Except to retrieve more supplies from the storage room.

An hour. That was enough time. But I hadn't. I forced myself to breathe. "There must be someone who saw me in the storage room," I pleaded, desperation clawing at my throat.

Knox arched a brow. "Convenient that the storage room has no windows and only one entrance, which no one passed through during that time."

I shook my head, my pulse roaring in my ears. "Someone is framing me. You know it. You have to know it!"

Dante's jaw tightened. "Who? Who would go to these lengths?"

I met his gaze. "Agatha." The silence that followed was deafening.

Adonis scoffed, shaking his head. "Again with your jealousy, Autumn?"

I felt sick. Jealousy. That's what they thought this was? That was the lie Agatha had spun around me for years. Since she came into their lives five years ago, she had played the perfect little sister, the fragile victim. She ran to them every time, crying, pointing fingers, weaving her web of deceit so tightly around me that I could no longer breathe. Every punishment, every cruel word, every time their gazes turned colder-it was all her. And now, it had gone so far that she had orchestrated a crime and placed the blame on me.

The doors slammed shut with a resounding thud, the echo reverberating through the empty hall. Everyone was gone. Everyone except them.

Adonis stood in the center, his broad frame stiff with barely restrained fury. Knox leaned against the long wooden table, arms crossed, silver-blue eyes unreadable. And Dante-Dante stood perfectly still, his wolf tattoo prominent as he clenched his fist.

My breath came shallow. I was alone with my mates. Alone with my accusers.

Adonis's voice sliced through the silence. "Take her."

Knox stepped forward first. Before I could react, his hands-so familiar, so warm once-grabbed my wrists. "Don't fight, Autumn," he said, voice deceptively calm. "You'll only make it harder."

He guided me roughly toward a heavy wooden chair. In seconds, thick ropes coiled around my wrists, securing them to the arms of the chair.

"No. No," I pleaded, twisting against the bindings. "Knox, please-"

His grip tightened. "It's Alpha Knox to you now."

"You used to call me Barbie." My voice cracked.

His silver-blue eyes met mine, something unreadable flickering in their depths. Then, just as quickly, it was gone. "Barbie was innocent," he said simply. "Barbie wasn't a liar."

I wanted to scream. Wanted to force them to see me.

But then Adonis stepped forward, a stern, unyielding look on his face. The phoenix tattoo on his neck flexed. "Your sweet words and that innocent face once had me fooled." He leaned down, his golden-brown eyes locking onto mine. "But I was the one who was deceived, wasn't I? You hid your true nature well."

"I didn't do it!" I choked out, fighting the burning in my eyes. "Agatha-she's the one who-"

Adonis let out a cold chuckle. "Blaming your stepsister again, Autumn?" He shook his head. "It's a pathetic refrain."

Knox stepped in, his presence quieter, more intense. He crouched beside the chair, checking the ropes. "I kept giving you chances," he murmured, voice low. "Thinking you'd change. That you'd understand. I thought you were fragile-something to be protected."

The rope pressed into my skin. My fingers tingled. I gasped. "Knox, please-"

His lips thinned. "But you?" He gave the rope a final, firm tug. "You betrayed that trust. You hid a darkness we never saw."

I begged. "Please, just listen to me!"

But then Dante moved. Dante. The one I was closest to. The one who valued truth above all else. I turned to him, desperate. "You know me, Dante. You know I wouldn't do this."

His jaw was set. "Yeah?" His lips quirked in a humorless line. "And yet, the evidence is here."

He stepped closer, his gaze sweeping over my face. "You know what I used to love most about you, Little Moon?" His voice was a low murmur, filled with a bitter nostalgia. He reached out, his fingers barely grazing my cheek in a ghost of a touch. "I thought you were the one pure thing in this world. Someone whose heart matched her face."

Then the fleeting softness vanished, replaced by a chilling resolve. His hand fell away. "But that was just another illusion you crafted, wasn't it?"

His words were the final blow, colder and crueler than any physical strike. The last vestige of hope within me shattered into silence.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

My five-year-old daughter was dying in the ICU, her heartbeat replaced by the continuous, electronic scream of a flatline. I gripped her cold hand, my throat sealed shut by a terror so absolute I couldn't even cry out. I dialed my husband Grayson's private number, the one reserved only for me and his assistants. He declined the call instantly. A second later, a text buzzed against my palm: "In a meeting. Do not disturb. Stop calling." Five miles away, Grayson was at a luxury gala, adjusting his silk tie and laughing with Belle Escobar. He told her I was just being "dramatic" and using our daughter's "fever" as an excuse to avoid the event. He had no idea Effie's heart had already stopped. When I finally reached our penthouse, soaked from the rain and carrying Effie's small socks in a plastic bag, Grayson didn't even look at me. He snapped at me for ruining the hardwood floors and asked if I'd left Effie with the nanny just to "feel sorry for myself." Three days later, while I buried our daughter in a small, lonely ceremony, Grayson was at the Hamptons. Belle posted a photo of him golfing with the caption: "A mental health day with the boys." He didn't even attend the funeral, but he returned home demanding I clear out Effie's room to make a study for Belle's son. The injustice burned through me until there was nothing left. I swallowed a handful of sleeping pills, desperate to join my daughter. But instead of the darkness, I woke up to blinding lights and the scent of Grayson's expensive cologne. I was standing in a ballroom, wearing a blue silk dress I had already burned. Above me, a banner read: "Happy 5th Birthday Kaiden & Effie." I was back, exactly one year before the tragedy. This time, I wasn't going to be the grieving wife. I was going to be their worst nightmare.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.
