Omega of Two Packs THE THING BENEATH US
Zeth’s POVI didn't answer him right away. I crossed the small space, my boots clicking too loud against the flagstones, and stopped right beside the wooden table where Alaric had propped open the ancient, brittle ledger."What is it, Alaric?" I asked, keeping my voice.He pointed to the margin of the page, where a narrow strip of parchment had been folded twice and tucked deep into the binding crease, hidden so well that anyone just turning the leaves would have missed it entirely.My heart did a slow, heavy thud against my ribs."It wasn't in the boxes in Mara's room," Alaric whispered, his eyes lifting to mine, filled with a sudden, sharp panic. "I came down here to check the regional census records from the year the old packs were driven out. I pulled this volume off the shelf, and... it dropped out of the binding."I reached out, my fingers, though my stomach was coiling into a tight, sick knot. I pulled the folded slip free.The paper was thick, slightly yellowed at the edges, a
Omega of Two Packs Shadows in the Council
Zeth’s POVI left Ashton, Xander, the boys, and Alaric in the mages’ temple. The crystal had stopped shaking, and the pulling in Ashton’s back had finally gone quiet.For a few minutes, I had let myself believe we could breathe again. But as I stepped out into the bright Aurion heat, I remembered the calendar carved into the palace stones and the responsibilities waiting for me. The full council was already gathered in the grand hall.By the time I reached the high double doors, Lord Criff and Lord Drago were standing near the threshold. Ahmor was leaning against a marble pillar, his arms crossed over his chest, his jaw working like he had a mouthful of gravel."You missed the morning muster, Zeth," Criff said before my boots even hit the carpet. His thin voice carried off the high ceiling. "The southern guards report three more sheep missing from the lower pasture near Lomi. No blood. No tracks. Just empty pens and villagers locking their doors before the sun even drops.""I was busy
Omega of Two Packs HOLD HIM
Xander's POVAkim was crying in my arms.His face was red, his little fists were tight in my tunic, and he was shaking his head like he wanted the gold light to go away.The circle on the floor had gone dark again after that flash. But the box on the stone table was shaking where Alaric had dropped it. Alaric had both hands on the lid trying to keep it shut, and the whole table was vibrating.Ashton was still sagging against my chest. His back was against me, his breathing uneven. My one arm was around him, and my other arm was around Akim, who was curled into my neck."Hold him tighter," Ashton said, his voice thin. He reached up and put his hand on Akim's back over mine. "He's scared.""I got him," I said low, into Akim's hair. "I got you. It's dark now. Look, no light."Akim didn't stop. He pushed his face harder into my neck and cried harder.Noah was right beside us where I left him, sitting on the floor with his legs tucked under him. He wasn't crying. He was watching Akim with
Omega of Two Packs THE CRYSTAL
Xander's POVThe light was still there.Gold. Everywhere. It covered the stone walls, the mages' grey robes, and Ashton's face. The orb in the open box pulsed like a heart, and the mark on Ashton's back was burning beneath his shirt.Ashton made a small sound, like he was trying not to let anyone hear how much it hurt.I moved toward him with Akim in one arm and Noah beside me, catching Ashton when his knees buckled. I lowered myself with him, pulling him against my chest before he could hit the floor. Akim clung to my tunic while Noah stared at the glowing orb."Ashton," I said, placing my hand against his lower back. The heat coming through his shirt was frightening. "Look at me."He opened his eyes, his breathing uneven. "It hurts, Xander. It's pulling at me.""Pulling you where?""I don't know." He squeezed his eyes shut. "I can feel something down there."Before I could ask him anything else, Alaric slammed the box shut.The light disappeared instantly, leaving the temple dim exc
Omega of Two Packs SISIL
Zeth's POVThe council room was already full when I walked in.They all stood. Criff, Drago, Sisil, Ahmor, Mark. I didn't tell them to sit. I walked to my chair and sat first. Then they sat. Criff straight as a stick, Drago already sweating through his linen, Sisil with her papers neat, Ahmor with his fists on the table like he wanted to fight someone, Mark holding his ledger and not looking at anyone.Sisil had grain numbers laid out. Same papers she brings every week."My King," she said, calm. "We were waiting. Sera village reports...""I know about Sera village," I said.I kept my voice flat. My hands were on the table. I made them stay still.Drago wiped his forehead with his sleeve. Criff watched me with those thin eyes.Sisil paused. Just a second. Then she went on like I had told her to continue."Then you have seen my report. They lost another three bags last night. No footprints. People are talking about...""People are talking about a lot of things," I said. "Let's talk ab
Omega of Two Packs THE AURION MAGES
Ashton's POVXander didn't waste time. He picked up the wooden box with the orb inside and tucked it under his arm. Then he gently tapped Noah awake and lifted him against his chest. "Come," he said to me.I picked up Akim. He wrapped his little arms around my neck and rested his head on my shoulder. We slipped out the back door of our chambers and took the narrow path behind the kitchens like Zeth said. The air smelled like smoke and fresh bread and oil from the kitchen fires. Servants were moving around carrying pots, but no one stopped us. The Aurion mages lived in the old temple at the edge of the palace grounds, half hidden by overgrown trees. It wasn't as big as the Noctaryn temple. It was small, with stone walls, no windows, and a heavy wooden door that looked like it had been there for a hundred years. The stone around it was covered in moss.Xander knocked three times, hard. For a while nothing happened. Then the door creaked open.Three mages stood inside. Old, all of the
