Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 137: The Scent Question (Cassian's POV)
Ronan told me what Raven confirmed to Cain."Where is Val?""Library."I went.I found her in the Den Library, tucked into a corner table with a stack of books.I didn't waste time."Raven confirmed to Cain that your scent is unusual up close."She looked up. Her expression didn't change. But something behind her eyes sharpened."Explain."I pulled out the chair opposite her and sat down."Raven told Val she answered a question Cain asked about you. He wanted to know whether your scent was different when someone got close."Val's fingers tightened around the edge of the book."What exactly did she say?""That your scent was unusual. Different up close.""Did she mention the suppressants?""No.""Wolfsbane?""No.""Anything about my shifting?""No."She released a slow breath."Then he doesn't have enough.""Not yet."Her eyes met mine."Tell me everything."So I did.I told her about the note from Raven's room. About Dessa carrying it toward Cain's wing. About Raven admitting that Cai
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 136: What Raven Left Behind (Ronan's POV)
I have a gift for being in the right place without being noticed.It wasn't a useful gift in normal situations. Most people would probably call it being forgettable.At Dominion, I'd learned to appreciate it.I was in the Vesper adjacent corridor when Raven's second-in-command, a sharp Vesper senior named Dessa, passed with a folded note that had Cain's office seal on the outside.She moved quickly, but not quickly enough.I noticed the seal first.Then the direction she had come from.Raven's room.I didn't intercept it.Stopping her would have raised questions, and questions were dangerous when I didn't yet know what I was looking for. Instead, I noted the direction it came from—Raven's room—and the direction it was going—Cain's wing.I filed this and went about my day like I hadn't seen anything.But I kept thinking about it.Raven had told Cassian she was done.She'd made that very clear.The public attachment. The declaration at the Iron Circle. The way she'd tried to position he
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 135: After The Hunt (Valeria's POV)
The infirmary smelled like antiseptic and old bandages.I sat on the examination table while the healer wrapped my ribs. Nothing serious—just bruising, she said. I'd taken worse.She pressed two fingers against the sore spot beneath my left side, and I sucked in a sharp breath.“Sorry,” she said, though her hands didn't stop moving. “I need to make sure nothing is cracked.”“I already told you it's fine.”“And I already told you to stop talking while I examine you.”I closed my mouth.She checked the bruising once more, then reached for a fresh strip of bandage. “No fracture. The swelling should settle in a few days. Avoid sparring until then.”“How many days?”“At least three.”“Two.”She gave me a flat look. “Three.”I sighed. “Fine.”“And no heavy lifting.”“I don't do heavy lifting.”“You're a student at Dominion Academy. You do heavy lifting every other day.”I couldn't argue with that.She finished wrapping my ribs and secured the bandage. “If the pain gets worse, come back. Don
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 134: In The Trees (Cassian's POV)
We moved through the final phase of the Hunt toward the Dominion Arena finish point. The forest had started to thin as we approached the final stretch. Through the trees, I could occasionally see the distant stone walls of the Dominion Arena. The sight should have made everyone relax. It did the opposite. Everyone knew the final phase was where teams became careless. After four days of tracking, fighting, and rationing supplies, exhaustion made people slower. Confidence made them predictable. I kept my eyes moving. "How far?" Ronan asked. "Less than an hour if we keep this pace," one of the Solas students answered. Val was several yards ahead with Gwen and the Umbra students. She looked tired, but she was still moving with the same controlled focus she'd shown since the Hunt began. The bond between us was quiet. Not absent. Just quiet. After everything that had happened during the Hunt, I had stopped pretending I didn't notice every small change in it. Then we reached the n
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 133: The Shifting Test (Valeria's POV)
The Hunt paused at midday for a mandatory academy assessment.Professor Jeter had embedded a shifting evaluation into the Hunt's structure this year, requiring all participants to demonstrate a timed partial shift in the field. The announcement came via academy alert on everyone's phones.The alert listed the requirements in neat, official language. Each participant had to shift on command, maintain the form for thirty seconds, and return to human shape without assistance. Any instability would be recorded for follow-up assessment.Thirty seconds.I could barely manage a controlled shift for ten without the suppressant fighting against my wolf. The new compound from Ronan's Umbra contact had helped, but it wasn't a cure. It only gave me more time before the pressure built.And now I had to perform in front of a professor."Problem?" Ronan asked, appearing at my elbow."No.""You're pale.""I'm fine."He glanced at the alert in my hand. "Right. The assessment."I locked my phone. "It's
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 132: Tooth and Tactic (Cassian's POV)
My team was competent.Ronan was on it, which helped. Two Solas seniors and a Vesper tactician rounded out the group—people who knew what they were doing and did not require managing.Under normal circumstances, this would be ideal.Under current circumstances, the bond was pulling me northwest with the persistent urgency of a compass that had found its true direction. Leading a team while tracking a feeling that wasn't mine required a specific kind of divided attention I hadn't previously needed to develop.I checked the map again as we moved between the trees. The Hunt had divided the forest into several sectors, each marked with boundary stones and tracking runes. Our current route should have taken us toward the eastern ridge, but the bond kept drawing my attention away from it.I forced myself to focus on the team."The trail's heading toward the eastern ridge," the Vesper tactician said. "We should move before the other teams catch up."I nodded. "Lead the way."He took point, s
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 1: The Price of Weakness (Valeria's POV)
The grand hall was suffocating.Rows of wolves in formal attire stood along the edges of the large room, their whispers moving through the air like a curse I couldn't shake. My father, Alpha Rhen, stood tall at the head of the room, his sharp gaze scanning the gathered pack members before settling
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 6: Suspicious Wolf (Cassian’s POV)
The silence that hung between us wasn’t peaceful. It was thick, stiff and heavy in the very corners of the room like dust no one dared to sweep.Val didn’t answer my question.Didn’t even flinch.Just climbed into bed and pulled the blanket up like I hadn’t asked a damn thing.And that pissed the h
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 5: Unexpected Interruption (Cassian's POV)
Raven tasted like cherry lip balm and something feminine. She was soft in the way I liked as we locked lips.Her fingers tangled in my hair, her body warm against mine as she shifted on my lap, lips trailing down my jaw. I let my head fall back against the wall, exhaling through my nose as her han
Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega Chapter 4: The First Test (Cassian's POV)
The training grounds were alive with tension. Everybody seemed uneasy on the field. They were about to be introduced to something they've never undertaken so their worry was expected. But weakness was not tolerated.Dominance challenges weren’t just a tradition at Dominion Academy—they were law. I
