Triplet Alphas Gifted Luna Chapter 87

Retraining

The triplets and Thea resumed their early morning training the next day, Thursday. The first set of Delta team members joined them—Owen, Liam, Wyatt, and Oz. The triplets tried to make it as much as possible like their sessions from when they were kids, hoping it might trigger her memory. Thea didn’t magically recover her memories, but she remembered how to fight. It helped that she could anticipate her opponent’s moves, sense their intentions.

“That’s pretty cool,” Thea said after the session. “I had no idea we could fight like that.”

“Train in wolf form next?” Liam said.

Arella, Cassandra, and Ophelia had snuck down to watch them train. Thea sensed them hiding.

“Hey, let’s take a breather,” Thea said. She went over to the girls. The Delta team members watched the three girls and Thea.

“Do you want to learn to fight?” Thea said to them.

“We will never be strong like you,” Cassandra said.

“Why not?” Thea said.

“We never see us being strong,” Ophelia said.

“In your dreams about the future?” Thea said. They nodded. “That doesn’t mean you can’t learn to defend yourselves. Do you want to try?”

“We like watching you,” Arella said.

“Okay, you can watch,” Thea said. “Maybe one day you’ll do this yourself.”

“You should work on your gift,” Arella said. “Sense what they’re thinking.”

“Okay. I will,” Thea said. “Guys, switch to gift practice?”

“What do you want to do?” Wyatt said.

“Sense what you’re thinking,” Thea said.

“Okay, what do you want us to do?” Owen said.

“Let’s all sit in a circle,” Thea said. “Let’s make it simple. Everyone choose a thing to think about, write down what it is, and only think about that. I’ll write down what I get off each of you, and then we’ll compare.”

Everyone sat down and typed on their phones what they would think of. Thea went around the circle of men, felt into them until she got something off them, and wrote it down.

When she was writing down the last one, Arella came up behind Thea and whispered in her ear. “Make him think about something you want.”

Thea got an image in her mind. An ice cream sundae. She brought it with her when she went into his mind. She thought it over and over inside his head.

“Oz,” Thea said. “What are you thinking right now?”

“I’m craving a vanilla sundae,” Oz said.

“Interesting,” Thea said.

“Try it for the whole group, ” Arella whispered. 2

Thea pushed an idea into the circle’s minds.

“What are you all thinking right now?” she said.

“I’m thinking I should wear a pink shirt today,” Conri said.

“Me too,” everyone echoed. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Hmm,” Thea said. “That’s interesting.”

“Did you make us think that?” Alaric said.

“I think so,” Thea said.

“That’s something,” Liam said.

“It’s just a thought, though,” Thea said. “It’s not like you’re all going to go put on pink shirts. I’m not controlling your minds.”

“But you can get into them,” Oz said. “Can you read them? What did we all write down?”

Thea read the list she made of what she got off each man in the circle. Then each man shared what they wrote down on their phones. They matched.

“So you can read minds,” Owen said.

“It’s not like I hear your thoughtsword for word,” Thea said. “It’s more like impressions.”

“But they were accurate,” Wyatt said.

“You guys were very focused and clear. You were thinking about just that one thing. I’ll need to practice on people who aren’t focused. Stream of consciousness goes fast. I don’t think we should rely on me

being able to read people’s minds for information.” 1

“Sure. Thoughts can be random,” Oz said. “People can think about things they would never actually do. So you’re right. It’s not necessarily a reliable mode of intel. But it’s not useless.”

Thea nodded.

“We’ll put it on the list of things to practice,” Liam said.

“Speaking of,” Wyatt said. “I was thinking. If you can put people to sleep by manipulating their brainwaves, what else can you do? Put someone in a coma? What about interrupting nerve signals? Could you paralyze them? Make them feel pain? Those are all brain activities.”

“I would need to know what the brainwave patterns of those things feel like to try them,” Thea said.

“We could go to a hospital and see what we can find,” Oz said.

Liam looked at Thea. “What do you think about that?” Liam said.

“I’m up to try,” Thea said.

“Okay, I’ll get that in our schedule,” Liam said.

They did some training in their wolf forms, then wrapped it up for the day.

“Let’s get some breakfast, huh?” Thea said to the girls.

They went to the dining hall and sat down with plates of food. 2

“We can help you with your plans,” Arella said.

“With your men,” Ophelia said.

“And the bad packs,” Cassandra said.

Thea put together that they knew about the planning meeting with Delta team.

“You don’t have to,” Thea said. “You can be kids. It’s not your responsibility to keep everyone safe.”

“If we don’t help you, we don’t win,” Arella said.

“Win what?” Kai said.

“Everything,” the girls said together.

A chill ran up Thea’s spine.

“You really want to help?” Thea said.

“It’s all we can do,” Arella said.

“Okay,” Thea said. “I’ll let you help, but it’s not the only thing you’re going to do. You’re going to learn to read. You’re going to train. You’re going to have lives and play and have fun too. Okay?”

“Okay,” they said, smiling.

“When you see the future, can you choose what you see? Or do the dreams just come to you whether you want them or not?” Thea said.

“Both,” Cassandra said.

“Not just the future. We see the past too,” Arella said.

“And the present,” Ophelia said.

“Maybe the first thing you can help with is how to keep you safe,” Thea said. “I know your old Alpha is going to want you back. He may try to kidnap you.”

“He doesn’t know where we are,” Cassandra said.

“But he will find out. Can you see what he’s going to do when he finds out?” Thea said.

The girls’ eyes went vacant for a moment.

“Not yet,” Ophelia said.

“When you do, will you let me know?” Thea said.

“Yes, Luna,” they said in unison.

“Speaking of keeping you safe,” Thea said. “We were thinking about putting you in a different room, closer to me, close to the Delta team warriors. That way we can keep a better eye on you. It means you won’t be by other kids, though. What do you think?”

The girls nodded, smiling, happy to be closer to Thea.

“Okay, we’ll get you moved today.”
