Riven’s POV

The bag over my shoulder was lighter than it should have been.

I’d noticed it sometime around the second hour of walking, when the strap had started cutting into my flesh and I’d shifted it to the other side and felt how little resistance it offered. I’d eaten most of what I’d packed before I ever reached the forest. Whatever Marta had given me as a farewell present was long gone also. And there was nothing left in it worth carrying except clothes and a few books I'd picked from the

Steady. “Yeah,” he said quietly. “I always do.” I smiled up at him, sweet, perfect, practiced. Inside, my pulse thrummed with something sharper than affection. Not this time, Alpha. The sun was climbing now. Voices drifted in from the yard, pack members gathering, banners snapping, the trials ground humming to life. Dominic would be here soon. The incense had done its job for months. One more morning. One more round of haze. Then everything would fall exactly where it belonged.

  • Oh My Beta!   Chapter 80

    Beta Riven’s POV I stepped to the side, mimed an incoming strike with my left hand slow, telegraphed. “See how Fenris always cocks his left shoulder before the feint? He’s been doing it since we were fifteen. Use it. When you see the tell, don’t block. Slip outside, hook under his guard while he’s still extending. One clean shot to the floating ribs. He’ll fold like wet paper.” Kade’s eyes narrowed. He replayed the motion in his head, I could see it, then tried the slip. His footwork was cleaner this time, body angling away instead of meeting force with force. The imaginary hook snapped out crisp. “There,” I said. “That’s fighting smart. You don’t have to be the strongest wolf on the field today. You just have to be the sharpest.” He straightened, wiped sweat from his brow even though we’d barely started. “You’ve been watching them. All of them.” “Every damn day since I got back.” I shrugged. “Someone had to. You were… occupied.” The word hung between us. Occupied with incense ha

  • Oh My Beta!   Chapter 79

    Beta Riven’s pov I stood up before the sky had decided whether it wanted to be day or not, crossed the cold floorboards of the guest room, and leaned my palms against the window sill. Down in the yard the omegas were already moving, silent shapes in the blue pre-dawn, unfurling pack banners that snapped like warnings in the frost. Poles rose, fabric stretched taut, canopies taking shape along the ridge. The trials ground was waking faster than the rest of us. Last night still clung to me. Kade and I had stolen an hour in the old sparring yard before dinner, him in worn training leathers, me watching more than fighting because my ribs still sang when I breathed too deep. His footwork was there, muscle memory sharp as ever, but the timing… off. Half a beat late. Eyes glazing for fractions of a second when they shouldn’t. I’d seen that dulling look too many times these past months: the slow poison Claire fed him through those endless sticks of incense smoldering in his chambers. No sc

  • Oh My Beta!   Chapter 78

    Riven’s POVKade was better than I expected.Not trial-ready, not even close and I wasn’t going to lie to myself about that. But better than I expected. The footwork was coming back, the instinct was still in him somewhere underneath everything, and by the end of the second hour he was moving like himself again. Not the sharp focused Alpha I’d trained alongside for years but something closer to it than the man I’d watched deteriorate from a distance.It was enough to work with.Maybe.We ran the combination drill one last time as the light started going flat and grey and I watched him land it, adjust, land it again, and thought about the trials tomorrow. The format. The other Betas he’d be up against. The particular weaknesses in his stance that we hadn’t had enough time to fully correct.It was going to be close.But close was better than impossible.“Alright,” I said.Kade dropped his arms and breathed. He was sweating despite the cold, his chest heaving, and he looked tired in the

  • Oh My Beta!   Chapter 77

    Beta Riven’s PovThe torches burned down slowly around us and the cold settled into the yard and we didn’t talk about Claire or the elders or what I was going to say before the audience. We just trained. The way we had a hundred times before all of this. The way we had when things were simple and the pack was whole and I wasn’t supposed to be dead.After the sixth round he stopped and braced his hands on his knees.“You’re still pulling every strike,” he said between breaths. “Because of the chest.”“My strikes are landing fine.”“Riven.”“Kade.”He straightened and looked at me. Really looked, the way he hadn’t in months, clear-eyed and direct and present.“What happened out there,” he said quietly. “In the forest. Tell me.”The torches crackled. Somewhere past the yard wall an owl called once and went silent.I held his gaze.“Before the audience,” I said. “I’ll tell you everything before the audience.”He held my gaze for a long moment. Then nodded. Once. The nod of a man who didn’

    Claire’s pov I screamed, my throat-tearing as the scalding soup continued to eat into my skin. It burned everywhere. My eyelids, my cheeks, even the delicate skin around my mouth. “My face! my face!” I shrieked, stumbling blindly, my arms flailing for anything: a towel, a sheet, just something, a

    Claire's POVI slammed her back against the heavy oak door of the supply room so hard the hinges rattled. The head omega, tall, broad-shouldered, and always carrying herself like she owned the place let out a sharp gasp. Her tray of folded linens clattered to the floor between us.“Luna… what… what

    Kade’s POVThe guards hauled Riven away like he was any other traitor. He didn’t beg, shout, or even look back at me with hate. Just that same steady, disappointed stare until the corridor swallowed him whole.The sword trembled in my grip long after they were gone. I forced my fingers to unclench.
