Chapter 30: Shadows of Secrets (Cassian’s POV)

作者: Alex Steel

The Den Library’s musty air clung to me as I slammed the herbology book shut, the words about wolfsbane burning in my mind: masks wolf traits, hides mate bonds.

Val’s secret was unraveling, and my wolf wouldn’t let it go. His scent in the Vault yesterday—sweet, wrong, not alpha—had my instincts screaming. I leaned back in the creaky chair, the flickering candle casting shadows across the texts.

My Rank 95 status gave me access to this section, but even that didn’t ease the knot in my gut. Val

  • Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega    Chapter 141: What It Means (Valeria's POV)

    I trained alone before anyone else was up.Just because my body needed to move while my mind processed. I ran the training yard through the dawn and thought about last night and what it meant and what came next.The bond was warm and steady. For the first time, not a source of pain.The absence of the pain was almost disorienting.I expected guilt.I expected panic.Maybe even regret.Instead, there was a strange calm sitting underneath everything.I had kissed Cassian.Not because of the bond.Not because we were trapped in the same fight.I had kissed him because I wanted to.That realization kept returning every time my mind tried to move to something else.I drove my fist into the training dummy.It swung backward.I followed with another strike.Then another.My body knew what to do even when my mind didn't.The problem was that now I had to figure out what came after the thing I had spent months refusing to name.Cassian and I were different now.There was no pretending otherwis

  • Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega    Chapter 140: The Morning After Everything (Valeria's POV)

    I woke before Cassian. I lay still and thought about what happened. Waited for regret.It didn't come.What came instead was something larger and more frightening: the specific vulnerability of having wanted something and then gotten it and now having to live in the world where that was true.For months, I'd been careful around him.Careful about where I stood.Careful about how long I looked at him.Careful about the bond, because acknowledging it felt like giving Cain another weapon against me.And last night, I'd stopped being careful.I had kissed Cassian.He had kissed me back.There was no pretending it hadn't happened.I turned my head slightly.He was still asleep.His breathing was slow and even, his face relaxed in a way I rarely saw during the day. There was no academy politics in his expression. No calculation. No suspicion.Just Cassian.I looked away.This was exactly why I needed to leave before he woke.Not because I regretted the kiss.Because I didn't.And that scare

  • Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega    Chapter 139: The First (Cassian's POV)

    We got back to the dorm at three in the morning.Adrenaline still running. Photographs that represented our best evidence against Cain. Ronan's perimeter signal said the coast was clear.It didn't take long before we were alone in our room.For several seconds, neither of us spoke.The room felt different after what had happened in Cain's office. Maybe it was because we had finally found something solid enough to fight with. Maybe it was because Cain's office had nearly caught us. Or maybe it was because somewhere between the evidence, the danger, and the way we'd moved together, something between Val and me had shifted again.She dropped her bag beside the bed.I locked the door."Still clear?" she asked."Ronan says we're good."She nodded, then looked at the photographs in my hand."Let's make sure we actually have what we think we have."That was Val.No celebration until the evidence was checked twice.I almost smiled."Desk."She sat down.I followed.We reviewed the photograph

  • Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega    Chapter 138: Cain's Office (Valeria's POV)

    We went at two in the morning.Me, and Cassian. While Ronan ran perimeter from outside. Cain's office was locked with a standard ward—one that I, having studied Soren's book on warding and spent three weeks practicing in my limited free time, could dissolve quietly enough to pass unnoticed.I did it in record time.The ward shimmered once beneath my fingers before fading into the stone.I held my breath.Nothing happened.No alarm.No footsteps.I looked at Cassian.He nodded.I pushed the door open.The office was dark and silent.We slipped inside.Ronan's voice came through the small communication rune attached to my wrist."Clear on the east corridor.""How long?" I whispered."At least ten minutes before the next patrol."Cassian closed the door behind us."Then we don't waste any."Inside, we worked efficiently.Cassian at the filing cabinets. Me at the desk where the clipboard lived. The office was orderly in the way of a man who controlled his environment carefully.Every book

  • 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 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

  • Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega    Chapter 3: The Golden Boy’s Roommate (Valeria's POV)

    The great hall buzzed with conversations. It seemed everybody was curious about who they were about to be sharing a room with.And from the look of things, I wasn't the only fresher. There were some people with bags. Obviously they didn't have to run away from their homes to be here.Students gathe

  • Dominion Academy: Rise of The Omega    Chapter 2: Dominion Academy (Valeria's POV)

    The night swallowed me whole.The moment my feet hit the dense forest beyond my father’s estate, I forced myself not to look back. Every instinct screamed at me to run, to put as much distance between myself and my former life as possible. But I couldn’t afford reckless speed. Not yet.I kept my st
