"Happy wolfday!!" My friends howled as they popped the champagne in my honor.
"Thank you guys," I beamed happily, basking in joy because I knew today was the day— Kenneth would be announcing our relationship! "My parents wouldn't let me be with a wolf-less girl, Tanya," he'd said one day. "But I promise to show you off when you have a wolf." Finally, it's today. Yesterday was my nineteenth birthday, and I felt nothing. I'd cried last night thinking I would be an Omega for life, but the goddess had other plans. "Gurl, your wolf was beautiful," Lara, my bestie, cooed, and I couldn't agree more. "The crimson color is darker than my own." I laughed again. Then my phone vibrated. The alarm I set for Kenneth's arrival ticked, and I got up quickly. "Girls, you continue the party, I'll be back soon," I said quickly and didn't wait to hear their questions. "Join me later in my hostel," then I jumped out. Kenneth was the hockey team captain at school and, of course, the most popular. Having him as my boyfriend without my friends' knowledge for three years wasn't easy, but for the love between us, I didn't say anything to anyone. But tonight it's happening. I got back to the hostel hurriedly, and my roommates, Gina and Jess, were dressing up for my party. "You're back?" Jess was surprised. I didn't reply. Rushed to my closet and grabbed the lingerie I'd picked from the mall a few days ago in preparation for this day. "Babes, what's happening!?" Gina and Jess cried, watching me dress up in the lingerie under my short skirt and top. "You're even wearing a make up!?" Gina laughed as I smeared the powder and red lipstick on. I felt a bit awkward wearing an outfit like this, as I usually dress in jeans and hoodies, but I must give Kenneth the best. “You look so hot, Nina!” Jessica said, grabbing her phone to snap me. "Now, will you tell us why you left the party to redress hotter?" "Lara and others will be here soon," I told them. "We're holding the party here." Jess and Gina were confused. "But why are we holding it here?" I smiled to myself. Kenneth wanted it to be in my hostel, and it stays that way. Gina heaved a long sigh. "Fine. Anyhow, you wanted it," she looked at her phone. "Everyone should be here any minute, right?" With a tight smile, "Right," but inwardly to myself, u know Kenneth would be here soon. ~ A few minutes later, the door burst open with the first guests arriving. "You made us think your party location was the school cafeteria," they all complained, since that was our first base. Jess and Gina were there to help me pacify them, while I kept checking time. Waiting for my man. Jess played music, and Gina helped with the alcohol we smuggled into the hostel last week. Soon enough, the suite was full of people. The LED lights flashed red, green, and blue while the music played loudly, but not too loud to be heard by Mrs Big Belly, our hostel mistress. Lara wasn't here yet. I wondered why, too, but her absence didn't concern me more than Kenneth's does. My patience was wearing thin. Just when I thought I should message him, he arrived, looking dazzling as usual. "Baby," I called happily, trying to hug him, but he didn't take it. "What..." "Happy Wolfday," he said, like we were forced to join the party. I shrugged and joined the party too, but sat beside him, studying his every expression as he ignored me. "You need to drink! You're no longer an Omega, you now have a wolf!" Gina announced. Others cheered him on, and forcefully, like that, I drank. "Kenneth, what did you like to drink?" I asked halfway into the drinking spree, but he ignored me. “He doesn't want to drink." I was starting to get dizzy. I clung to him and asked in a bare whisper. "Wouldn't you announce our relationship? You promised it's today." Others couldn't hear him hiss. But I heard, and he got up, leaving without saying anything else to me. The alcohol wiped from my face for a second. 'Was he leaving just like that?' my wolf asked in my head. I shook my head. "He must have something to tell me; perhaps that was why he stepped out." "Tanya, pop the champagne." Jess came howling happily, but I brushed it aside. "I'm coming..." "But hey," Jess was about to call, but I paid her no heed. I rushed after Kenneth A few minutes after getting back outside, I couldn't see Kenneth anywhere around. "Ken?" I called, but no response. Everywhere was silent. "Kenny, where are you?" I called silently again, trying not to raise my voice to avoid being caught. For five minutes straight, I was still trying to get him, but he wasn't picking up my calls or texts."Hey, have you seen Ken?” I asked a student who staggered outside to pee. He spat before looking up at me. "Tanya?" "Yes. Did you perhaps know where Ken might be?" He pointed in the opposite direction. "He was occupying the toilet. That's why I came outside." I frowned. The toilet? Why would he be at the female hostel, general hostel, when he knew Mrs Big Belly must not know I was hosting a party! Having boys over the female hostel is the biggest offence ever, and my guests had been warned in advance, so why would Kenneth.... "Alright, thanks." I forced a smile and waited until he'd left before I made my way over to the toilet, weaving drunkenly. I hesitated before touching the handle and pulled it, only to see Kenneth there, back against the entrance, Someone bent before him. He turned back and saw me. "T...Tanya?" "What's it, Ken?" A lustful familiar voice seconded, and as she raised her head, it was Lara! Thesame Lara who wished me well earlier and the school cheerleader. My jaw dropped with shock. "No..." I shook my head. "Kenny, no! He pulled his pants up. “Tanya, it’s not what it looks like,” he said, stumbling toward me while Tanya simply stood up with a smirk and pulled her panties on, smoothing down her skirt. She strutted out of the room and bumped me with her shoulder. "You don't deserve him."GIDEON'S POVThe text came in at 9:40 PM. Tanya and I were walking back from the library. We were not in a hurry. We were wondering if the dining hall would still have any food left.Elias: Resonance just spiked. Not a site. Something live. Coordinates incoming.Then a second later: It's close. It's near the greenhouse.I stopped walking. Tanya stopped a step after me. She was already reading over my shoulder. Her hand found my arm."Live, " she said. "Not a mark. She's actually there.""She's out of sight, " I said. I was thinking out loud. "Max gutted two of them in under an hour tonight. If the resonance projection was right she's got nothing left to anchor the conjunction with.""So she's improvising.""She's desperate." I was already moving. I pulled out my phone to answer Elias. Tanya's hand tightened on my arm."Gideon. Wait."I looked at her."If she's out of marks and out of time " Tanya said, "then whatever she does next she does with whats left. Which is herself. In person.
TANYA'S POVWe hit the first site a little after eight, before the light was fully gone, because Elias wanted readings while there was still enough daylight to see the marks clearly before we started disrupting them.It was a stretch of woods behind the athletics storage building, somewhere I'd walked past a hundred times without ever once thinking about what might be carved into the ground past the tree line. The marks here were smaller than the ones at the maintenance gate, tighter and more controlled. Like Ginna had had time or more care. And this was the read Elias gave us before we even got close. Less power left to spend, so she'd had to be precise instead of generous."She's rationing," Elias said, crouched at the edge of the mark with his tablet angled to catch the failing light. "Compare this to the east perimeter site. That one was sloppy because she had energy to burn and not time to be careful. This is the problem. She's got time but not energy. Every mark has to count."G
GIDEON'S POVI woke up before the alarm, which had not happened in eleven days.For eleven days, I had been waking up to the tether first. The second room. That low oily pull settled into my chest before my eyes were even open, like something had been waiting all night for me to be conscious again so it could remind me it was still there.This morning it was quiet.Not gone.I could still feel the thread of it distant, the way you can feel a bruise you are not actively pressing on.Quiet.I lay there for a minute just checking.Breathing in.Waiting for the pull to answer back.It did not.Tanya was still asleep beside me, one hand loose against my chest where it had ended up sometime in the night.I did not move it.I looked at her instead. The part in her hair, the small crease between her eyebrows that showed up in sleep, like she was running data in her dreams.Maybe she was.I would not have put it past her.I thought about the ridge.About the maintenance gate.About the east pe
Tanya's POVWe did not go back to the dorms after we finished with the east perimeter site. The team needed some time to talk without everyone on campus watching us, so we met again in the greenhouse clearing. The air was cooler now. The connection between Gideon and me felt like the one thing that was still steady. Every step the tether pulled at him, but I stayed close, holding his hand and letting our connection flow warm and steady between us. The research was right. Being around people we care about helps us heal. My being there was actually making him feel better. I could feel it working every time he breathed a little easier.Gideon kept holding my hand when we got to the clearing. He looked tired. The gold in his eyes was calmer than it was before. The tether was still there. It was damaged from the fight on the ridge and all the other sites we had been to, but it was not controlling him anymore. Not as long as I was there with him.We sat down in a circle as we did before. Li
TANYA’S POVThe silence of the dorm room was heavier than any textbook I’d ever lugged across campus. I had spent the last four hours staring at the cracks in the ceiling, trying to force my brain to shut down, but sleep was a ghost I couldn't catch. Every time I closed my eyes, the darkness didn't
GIDEON’S POVThe heavy oak doors of the lecture hall creaked as I shoved them open, the sound echoing through the tiered room. Every head snapped in my direction. The air was thick with the scent of old paper, floor wax, and the nervous sweat of fifty different wolves. I didn't slow down. I didn't
TANYA’S POVThe mid-term break was supposed to be a relief. It was the first time since the semester began that the campus would actually be quiet, a reprieve from the whispers, the glares, and the suffocating pressure of being the "Omega" everyone was afraid of. The hallways were already buzzing w
Tanya’s POVEverything just… tilted.I stared at Gideon as my brain had short-circuited. This was my woods. My hiding spot. The place I came when everything else got too loud. Not Moonstone. Not some downtown bar. Home. And there he was, Gideon Hemisphere, hockey captain, fated-bloodline golden boy
