Serena's POV

**The darkness was absolute.**

It pressed against my skin like a living thing, thick and wet, smelling of rust, old blood, and something chemical that burned the back of my throat. The red lights in the windows pulsed slowly, one after another, like a dozen pairs of hungry eyes opening in sequence. Each pulse painted the courtyard in brief, hellish glimpses: cracked stone, black vines coiling like veins, the rusted Blackwood crest hanging crooked above us.

And beneath our feet, th

    **Serena’s POV** The sound beneath the mansion stopped. For three heartbeats, nobody moved. Then Dominic whispered one word that sent ice sliding down my spine. “Run.” I stared at him. Not because I was afraid of the darkness. Because I had never heard fear in Dominic’s voice like that before. Not even when Amelia had been taken. Not even when the compound exploded around us. This was different. This was personal. His face had gone pale beneath the red emergency lights. The gold in his eyes flickered like a dying flame. Through the bond I felt it — a deep, ancient terror he had buried so long ago it had grown roots inside him. “What is down there?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. His jaw tightened so hard I heard the bones creak. “Nothing you need to see.” A cold shiver traveled down my spine. “That’s not an answer.” “It’s the only one you’re getting right now.” The emergency lights flickered back on, bathing the corridor in a dim crimson glow that made e

  • A Plus Size Omega: Submitting To My Bestie's Alpha Father    That seems… weird.

    Serena's POV Dominic’s expression changed. He knew her. I could see it in the way his jaw locked, in the way the gold bled fully into his eyes. “You recognize her,” I said. He didn’t answer immediately. When he did, his voice was dangerously quiet. “Her name is Mara. She’s been a household attendant for eight years. Quiet. Efficient. Never caused trouble. She had full access to the east wing. To the private corridors. To the security feeds when the head of surveillance was off duty.” My stomach twisted painfully. Eight years. Someone who had lived inside this mansion for almost a decade. Someone who could have watched me without my knowledge. Someone who could have known Dominic’s routines, his habits, his secrets. Someone who had probably been in the room when I first arrived at the academy. “Where is she now?” I asked. Dominic turned toward the nearest guard, his voice like a blade. “Find Mara. Bring her to me. Alive.” The guard hesitated, swallowing hard. “Alpha… we a

  • A Plus Size Omega: Submitting To My Bestie's Alpha Father    Traitor.

    Serena’s POVFor several seconds after the attackers disappeared, nobody moved.The medical wing looked like a battlefield.Broken glass glittered beneath the pulsing red emergency lights like scattered diamonds soaked in blood. Smoke curled lazily through the shattered doorway, carrying the acrid stench of wolfsbane and scorched wiring. One of the monitors had been knocked sideways, its screen cracked, wires dangling like severed veins. A silver blade lay abandoned near the far wall, its edge still wet with black ichor that hissed faintly against the tile floor.And in the middle of it all stood Dominic.His arms were wrapped around Amelia like she was the only thing keeping him anchored to the earth. His daughter. His secret. His entire world. Her head rested against his chest, her breathing shallow but steady, the golden light beneath her skin now reduced to a faint, pulsing glow that matched the rhythm of her heart.I touched her forehead. Her skin was burning.“She’s burning up,”

  • A Plus Size Omega: Submitting To My Bestie's Alpha Father    Dad… don’t make us choose.

    Serena's POV “What?” Dominic demanded.She looked up, her face pale beneath the red lights. “The results are… incompatible. The serum is reacting to both of them, but it’s not attacking. It’s *linking*. Like a circuit. Like the original and the mixed line forming a closed system. The light in Amelia’s veins is responding to her blood. It’s responding to hers. And it’s… stabilizing.” Stabilizing? I looked at Amelia. Her face was still pale, but the golden light beneath her skin had dimmed, the pulsing waves slowing. Her monitor beeped slower now, numbers dropping back toward the yellow zone. Amelia’s eyes opened again, storm-gray and clearer. “I felt it,” she whispered. “The light… it’s calmer. Like it found its match.” Dominic’s hand never left mine. “Match?” Amelia looked up at him, then at me, her silver eyes fading back to normal. “The original line and the mixed line. They’re supposed to be enemies. They’re supposed to destroy each other. But here… here they’re supposed to p

    Serena’s POV“No.” His voice was final. “I won’t risk her.”Dominic’s words landed like a physical blow. The room seemed to tilt, the red emergency lights pulsing faster, as if the building itself was reacting to the tension. I felt it through the bond, a raw, protective surge that made Rose snarl inside me, *He is afraid for you. The Alpha who has carried this secret for fourteen years would rather burn the world than let it touch you.*Elara’s scanner screen flickered, the results still glowing in stark white: *Carrier Compatibility – Stable. No Rejection. No Attack.* She looked up at Dominic, then at me, her gray hair falling across her forehead as she wiped her hands on a sterile cloth.“Alpha, the blood is reacting. The serum is recognizing both of them as carriers. Not just compatible—*linked*. If we draw a sample from Luna Serena right now, it could trigger the same reaction in her that we saw in the compound. It could accelerate the change. Or… it could stop it. Stabilize the

  • A Plus Size Omega: Submitting To My Bestie's Alpha Father    Can you stop it?

    Serena's POV My stomach dropped. “Key to what?” Amelia shook her head, tears leaking from the corners of her eyes. “I don’t know. I tried to listen. I tried to remember. They said… they said your mother wasn’t the first.” I stopped breathing. “My mother?” Amelia nodded weakly, her fingers tightening around mine. “They said there were others before her. Healers. Women from the Vale line. They volunteered at first. They thought they were helping. They didn’t know they were being used as incubators. They said the first generation failed. The children died. The second generation survived longer, but they were… unstable. They had to be contained. But the third…” She looked directly at me, silver eyes wide. “They said the third generation could carry the serum naturally. That it would live in the blood. That it would wake when the bond formed. When the original found her mate.” My heart hammered so hard I thought it might crack my ribs. “Me.” Amelia nodded. “You.” A cold s
