The council hall is packed with the elders, and the air in the room is heavy with voices and loud murmurs. They are all talking about him, talking as if he isn’t there in the room with them.Kieran is sitting at the far end of the long table; beside him are Cassian and Riven. He has his hood pulled low over his head, and his eyes are fixed on the table, while his hands are clasped tightly together in his lap, but no matter how hard he tries to calm himself, he can feel the weight of their stares and the disappointment of their gaze around him. He’s so ashamed to even lift his head. He doesn’t even know why he’s here.Suddenly, Elder Pete is clearing his throat, and the hall falls into silence as they all turn their gaze to him. “We can continue to speak over our heads, or we can give the people what they want, at least until Kieran is back to being the alpha he once was.”Kieran stops himself from flinching at the sound of his name, but he doesn’t speak.Elder Mora scoffs and shakes h
Kieran lets out a sigh as he kills the engine of the truck at the front of the Omega’s mansion. His hand grips the steering wheel tightly, his jaw is stiff, his head is pounding, and again, his body feels heavier, even more than usual, and it doesn’t help that he knows eyes are following him everywhere he goes. The whispers are like needles in his skin, but still, he has to perform his duties as an alpha.He sits still in the car for a moment, staring at the crates of supplies loaded at the back through the window. He can do this. He tells himself and then takes a deep breath. He forces himself out of the car and begins to unload them. His muscles strain, and every small effort makes his chest burn, but he doesn’t stop; he doesn’t want anyone to see his weakness.When he heads to the entrance, a few of the omegas are standing there, their arms crossed over their chests, and their eyes on him are sharp. He can feel the weight of their stares piercing through his face. He doesn’t get to
Kieran slowly opens the door of his room; he’s exhausted, his eyes and every movement he makes feel heavy, and his body is dragging, but before he can even step fully inside, the door suddenly slams shut hard behind him. The sound echoes loudly in the room, causing him to jump, and he spins around fast, his eyes wide; he finds Seth there, standing beside the door, with a hooded look in his eyes that makes Kieran’s heart race because he knows what that look means.His silver hair is messy, like he has been constantly running his hand through it, and his crimson eyes are burning, while his chest rises and falls like he has run all the way here.Kieran’s throat goes dry, and he swallows hard. “Seth…” he mutters.Seth’s eyes do not leave his face, and he doesn’t move from where he’s standing. “When were you going to tell me?” His voice is low, yet sharp, as if he’s trying hard not to explode with emotions.Kieran instantly freezes, and his lips part, but he can’t speak; the words hang in
The morning air feels heavy at the training ground. Kieran arrives with his head held high, even though his body feels weak, his head is hidden behind a hoodie, and his hands are shoved into his pockets. The field is filled with warriors, sparring and running drills, but the moment he is sensed, everything seems to quiet down and one by one, their heads turn. Kieran slows his steps when he notices their stares. Their eyes on him are sharp and cutting, like he has committed the most hideous crime. He clenches his jaw and ignores it, dismissing it as nothing as he walks to the center of the field. “Form up,” he orders, his voice cutting loud through the ground, but nobody moves. He raises his head, his green eyes scanning them. “Did you not hear me? Form up.” His tone carries his Alpha command, but still, not a single warrior moves. They share glances at each other while their lips twitch with something close to mockery and disgust. What’s going on? Kieran feels something cold sit in
Kieran returns to the pack house feeling like he has the weights of the whole world pressing down on his shoulders. He pushes the door of his bedroom open and drags his feet inside, his eyes staring at the floor while every step he takes is just heavy, but then he abruptly comes to a stop when his gaze lands on the figure sitting on his bed like she owns it: Lena.He stares at her with a dead gaze. "What are you doing here, Lena?" he asks and resumes his walk. His hands go to grab the hem of his shirt to take it off, but he decides against it. What if it’s obvious that he’s carrying a child? The last person he wants on earth to ever find out is Lena.She has one leg crossed over the other, her arms crossed over her chest, and a sweet, fake smile on her face. “What do you think? I’m here to see my boyfriend.”“Lena…” Kieran starts, tiredness in his voice as he rubs against his forehead.She cuts him off. “Oh, I’m sorry, I meant fake boyfriend. I realize we haven't seen each other in a
Kieran waits in the mess of the living room, dozing off on the couch till the morning sun breaks through the window and the front door finally opens. He blinks at the ceiling, unmoving and unfeeling for a moment. He doesn’t even have the strength to rise to his feet, and then he hears the sound of his name.“Kieran,”The alpha slowly turns his head, finding Seth standing in front of him, staring at him worriedly; he immediately squats to his level. “What are you doing here?”Kieran’s lips part, but no sound comes out. His throat feels raw, his body so heavy it might as well be pinned to the couch by unseen chains. He stares at Seth, unblinking, his eyes bloodshot and hollow. Instead of forcing himself to speak, he lets a lazy smile stretch on his lips and pushes himself off the couch to his feet, the hoodie falling from his face.“I waited the whole night, Seth. Where are you coming from?” Kieran tries to hide the weakness in his body but Seth stares at him like he can see through him
