I woke to smoke and pine and pure male.

The bed was huge. Dark furs piled around me, warm from a body that was gone.

Kael’s shirt hung to my thighs, his scent clinging to the fabric. I touched the fresh mark on the side of my neck. It tingled under my fingers.

Heat flushed up under my skin—images from last night flickering back: his mouth at my throat, his rough voice promising to keep what he’d claimed, my body arching toward him like it had a mind of its own.

What am I to him? A pact? A shiel

  • Rejected Omega, claimed by the Ruthless Alpha   CHAPTER 7 – The Prince’s Gift

    By midday, the keep had settled into a rhythm I didn’t recognize yet.Warriors’ shouts drifted in faintly from the training yard. Somewhere below, someone was laughing loud enough to shake the rafters. The hall smelled of woodsmoke and meat and leather, a far cry from Moonfang’s polished stone and incense.I found a narrow balcony off one of the upper corridors and slipped out, seeking air.From here, the world dropped away in a sweep of pine and rock. The forest rolled down the mountain in dark waves, a river of green broken only by the pale thread of a distant stream. The wind was colder out here, snapping at the hem of Kael’s shirt around my thighs, tugging at my hair.For the first time in days, there were no guards at my back. No beta hands on my arms. No prince’s cold eyes on my skin.Just the wind. The trees. The faint ache of a new bond humming under my breastbone.Free, I thought.Then I remembered the mark at my neck—the iron‑hot thread linking me to the Bastard Alpha—and am

  • Rejected Omega, claimed by the Ruthless Alpha   CHAPTER 6 – The Luna of Blackthorn

    I woke to smoke and pine and pure male.The bed was huge. Dark furs piled around me, warm from a body that was gone.Kael’s shirt hung to my thighs, his scent clinging to the fabric. I touched the fresh mark on the side of my neck. It tingled under my fingers.Heat flushed up under my skin—images from last night flickering back: his mouth at my throat, his rough voice promising to keep what he’d claimed, my body arching toward him like it had a mind of its own.What am I to him? A pact? A shield? A temporary distraction?Outside the door, faint voices and footsteps drifted through the stone. The air tasted different than it ever had in Moonfang—smoke, pine, stone, and wolves—not marble dust and scrubbing lye.I swung my legs out of the bed. The cold floor bit at my bare feet. Muscles protested as I stood, but they held.I crossed the thick rug and eased the heavy wooden door open.I nearly walked straight into a wall of muscle.“Steady, Luna.”The wall laughed.I stumbled back, cheeks

    “Welcome to Blackthorn,” he said.I swallowed, looking up at the looming keep.“Is this where you…break your toys?” I asked before I could stop myself, Lucian’s words echoing cruelly in my skull.Kael’s eyes cooled dangerously. “I don’t play with toys.”A tall, wiry man with mischief in his eyes and a scar on his chin strode forward, grinning. “You brought us a Luna and didn’t warn anyone? Rude, Alpha.”“Jace,” Kael said in warning.Jace only laughed and bowed to me with surprising grace. “Jace. Gamma of Blackthorn. Welcome, Luna. Don’t worry. We don’t bite half as hard as the rumors say.”My mouth opened. Nothing came out.Luna.The word sat wrong on my tongue and yet—Kael’s hand settled lightly at the small of my back. “Inside,” he said. “You need food and sleep.”“And the claiming?” Jace asked wickedly under his breath.Kael shot him a look sharp enough to cut stone. “Later.”Jace threw up his hands. “See? Not half as hard,” he told me lightly. “For now.”The inside of Blackthorn

    Sleep didn’t come.I lay on the narrow servant’s pallet in the tiny room they finally locked me into, eyes wide open, staring at the cracks in the ceiling.Every time I closed them, I saw Lucian’s face under the Moon—eyes silver, lips saying, "I reject this bond."Every time I swallowed, I felt Kael’s thumb ghosting over my throat, his voice murmuring, *Once I mark you, no one will ever touch you again without bleeding for it.*I didn’t know which memory hurt more.By the time grey seeped into the sky, my body was lead, and my thoughts were frayed raw.The door banged open at dawn.“Up,” a maid snapped, already moving to strip my pallet. “We don’t have all morning. The Alpha of Blackthorn won’t want to wait for his new Luna.”Her words hit like a slap.Luna.My throat tightened. “I’m not—”“You will be in an hour,” she said briskly. “Move.”They treated me like a task, not a bride.I was hauled to a washing chamber, undressed with rough efficiency, dumped into a tub barely warmer than

  • Rejected Omega, claimed by the Ruthless Alpha   CHAPTER 3 – Rejected and sold

    “I reject this bond,” Lucian said coldly. “I would rather take no mate at all than be tied to an omega.”So that was all I was to him. All I’d ever be to any of them.*An omega to be stepped over, rejected, sold.**Not if I ever found a way to stand up again.*The world went silent.Pain exploded through me; my wolf screamed once—then vanished.Something sacred inside me shattered.For the first time in my life, I wasn’t sure I would survive the night.I didn’t feel myself fall.One moment, I was standing. The next, the ground hit me. My palms smashed into cold earth; pain flared through the raw wolfsbane burns. My knees cracked the frozen ground. My back felt like someone had driven a burning knife down my spine.Inside my skull: nothing.The small, familiar presence that had always been there—timid but constant—was gone. No fur‑brush against my thoughts. No quiet nudge.“She’s losing her wolf,” someone whispered.“Maybe the Moon’s punishing her,” another hissed. “For daring to thi

    Don’t dawdle,” the steward snapped, shoving a rough cloak into my hands. “Stand with the servants. Head down. The princesses don’t need to trip over you on their way to destiny.”I clutched the cloak and followed the cluster of lower‑rank wolves along a side path. My dress was freshly mended but still patched. The cloak helped against the night chill.The sacred stone circle lay in a clearing, ringed by ancient oaks. Pale stones rose from the earth in a rough circle, runes glowing faintly. In the center, a flat altar stone waited.Alphas and betas stood closest, forming a gleaming wall of silk and mail. Beyond them, there are fewer ranks. At the very back, in the dark between trees: servants and omegas, allowed to watch but not be seen.A hand dug painfully into my arm.“Back here,” my mother hissed, dragging me further into shadow.“Mother—”“You think I want the Moon’s eye to fall on *you* and embarrass us all? Stay out of sight.”The words hurt more than her grip.“Yes, Mother,” I
