CHAPTER 57 — The Night Settles Around Our Wounds

The pack house was warm.

Too warm compared to the orchard.

Too clean.

Too intact.

It made the bruises feel louder.

My ribs ached every time I breathed. My shoulder throbbed from hitting the ground. My legs felt shaky, like they weren’t sure they wanted to keep holding me up. My mother’s arm around me wasn’t gentle — it was steady, keeping me upright because she knew I wouldn’t ask.

Sylvie stayed curled under my ribs, tail low, ears forward. N

  • Rejected Omega, Alpha's Fate   Chaiter 59 Where Secrets Settle

    CHAPTER 59 — Where Secrets Settle I woke before the sun finished climbing the wall.Not because I wanted to. Because my Drago wouldn’t let me stay asleep.He paced under my ribs, restless and unsettled, pushing at me with the same single‑minded urgency he’d had since last night.Her.I sat up slowly, rubbing my face. The pack house was quiet—too quiet for the morning after a festival, too quiet for the morning after an elder attack. The kind of quiet that settles only after fear has burned itself out and left exhaustion behind.I hadn’t taken a single hit. Not one bruise. Not one scrape.I arrived after the worst of it—after the elder broke and ran, after the orchard was torn apart, after the ground was cracked and the stones were split. I stepped into the aftermath, not the fight.But the mark under my skin didn’t care about timing.It sat there like a low hum, steady and present. Not painful. Not dangerous. Just… there. A truth waiting to be acknowledged.My wolf pushed again

  • Rejected Omega, Alpha's Fate   Chapter 58. Revelations

    CHAPTER 58 — RevelationsI awake the next morning stiff and sore from the night before. Sunlight gleamed through the window onto my pillow.I yawned and tried to stretch. My muscles protested at the attempt, so I quit trying to stretch.I felt Sylvie yawning and trying to stretch, which made me flinch.That hurt."Yes, it did," I said, my eyes still closed, half‑asleep.I heard a soft snore coming from my right.I opened my eyes to see my father sitting on the window seat, braced up against the wall, sleeping. The burn across his chest still red and angry looking.I smiled.Sylvie focuses on him and Ghost inside him.They protect us even in sleep.I look over toward the window. My mother is in bed beside me. Bruised but safe and sound asleep. Sula sleeping peacefully with her.I look back up at the ceiling of my room and close my eyes, smiling.Sylvie whispers in my head.They won't admit it. They did not want to leave you alone last night.I chuckle at what she said.That chuckle w

    CHAPTER 57 — The Night Settles Around Our WoundsThe pack house was warm.Too warm compared to the orchard. Too clean. Too intact.It made the bruises feel louder.My ribs ached every time I breathed. My shoulder throbbed from hitting the ground.

My mother’s arm around me wasn’t gentle — it was steady, keeping me upright because she knew I wouldn’t ask.Sylvie stayed curled under my ribs, tail low, ears forward. Not braced for danger — just watching. Guarding. Settled.Dad sat at the kitchen table, shirt off, burn across his chest angry and red. Blood streaked down his arm, dried in places, fresh in others. He didn’t complain. Betas don’t complain.Elias sat beside him, leg stretched out, jaw clenched. His thigh was wrapped in a quick bandage. He looked like he wanted to pretend it didn’t hurt, but Dad kept giving him Beta looks that shut down every attempt.My mother checked my ribs again, fingers gentl

  • Rejected Omega, Alpha's Fate   chapter 58. Dad Hold the Line.

    CHAPTER 56 — Dad Holds the LineThe scar stayed quiet.Not gone. Not dormant. Just quiet in a way that felt deliberate, like it had stepped back but not away. The warmth under my ribs wasn’t fading. It was holding. Waiting. Settling into a place that felt too intentional to ignore.Sylvie didn’t trust it.She stayed pressed under my ribs, ears forward, tail stiff, her entire body locked in a posture that meant she wasn’t convinced the silence was real. Her attention wasn’t on the scar now. It was on Adrian.Adrian stood exactly where he had been, posture grounded, shoulders squared, breathing steady. His wolf wasn’t snarling anymore. His aura wasn’t flaring. But his eyes… his eyes were still wrong. Not glowing. Not unstable. Just wrong. A color that didn’t belong to any wolf I’d ever seen.Aldrich stood a few feet away, aura low but wide, the way he held it when he needed to stabilize a room without crowding anyone. “Adrian. Report.”Adrian didn’t answer immediately.Jason didn’t

  • Rejected Omega, Alpha's Fate   Chapter 55. The Scar Doesn't Settle, It Shifts

    CHAPTER 55 — The Scar Doesn’t Settle, It Shifts The scar didn’t flare again after the connection check. It didn’t pulse. It didn’t echo the orchard. It didn’t drag me anywhere. It just stayed warm—steady, deliberate, like someone had placed a hand against my sternum and refused to move it.Sylvie didn’t relax.She stayed pressed under my ribs, ears forward, tail stiff, her entire body locked in a posture that meant she wasn’t convinced the moment had passed. Her attention wasn’t on the scar anymore. It was on the air.On the space around us.On the shift she felt before anyone else.Aldrich stood a few feet away, aura stretched but controlled. Adrian stayed close—closer than before—his Drago coiled under his skin, not bristling, not aggressive, just… ready. Jason hovered near the counter, pacing in short, sharp bursts. Elias stayed near the doorway, eyes flicking between me and the windows like he expected something outside to change.My mother didn’t let go of my hand.No one spoke

  • Rejected Omega, Alpha's Fate   Chapter 54. The Scar Remembered

    CHAPTER 54 — The Scar Remembered The scar didn’t calm after the memory. It didn’t flare either. It settled into a steady warmth—too deliberate to ignore, too quiet to classify as danger. Sylvie stayed pressed against my ribs, tail stiff, ears forward, her entire body locked in one posture:She wasn’t done watching.Aldrich didn’t leave my side. Adrian hovered close enough that his wolf’s breath brushed the air around me. Dad paced the kitchen like he was waiting for something to explode. Elias stood near the doorway, eyes flicking between me and the scar like he expected it to start glowing.My mother sat beside me, her hand on my back, her Sula bristling under her skin.No one talked.The scar warmed again—soft, steady, controlled.Aldrich’s voice broke the silence. “It’s stabilizing.”Dad spun around. “Stabilizing? That’s supposed to make me feel better?”“It means it’s not escalating,” Aldrich said.Dad threw his hands up. “Great. Fantastic. Wonderful. It’s not escalating. It’s j
