THEO POV

The river route smelled like oil, rust, and old water.

It was a smuggler's path-concrete embankments, rusted ladders and tunnels half-swallowed by the city. No cameras. No signal, just the sound of water moving fast and the occasional drip from overhead pipes.

I leaned against Rian as we walked, my breathing still uneven. The forced heat had left me drained and shaky. Kael walked on my other side, close but not touching.

Lucien led, gun in hand, eyes scanning every shadow, he

  • SCENTBOUND   Chapter 11 - The Illusion Of Safety

    RIAN POV The safehouse sat at the edge of a dead orchard, twenty kilometers past the last city checkpoint. One floor, no windows on the ground level, Lucien called it off-grid I called it a tomb with plumbing. But it had a lock that worked, a generator that hummed and no Task Force drones in the sky. For now that was enough. Theo collapsed on the cot the second we got inside. Kael didn't leave his side, he just sat on the floor beside him, close enough to catch him if he fell but far enough not to crowed. Lucien locked the door, checked the perimeter cameras twice, then turned to me. "You're pale," he said. "So are you," I shot back. He didn't smile. "When did you last sleep." "Before the breach." "Then sleep now," I shook my head. "Not until you you tell me what the council wants with Theo." Lucien's jaw tightened. "They want leverage. Omegas with instable heats can be weaponized. They wanted to see if they could force it and control it. "And Theo?" "They t

    THEO POV The river route smelled like oil, rust, and old water. It was a smuggler's path-concrete embankments, rusted ladders and tunnels half-swallowed by the city. No cameras. No signal, just the sound of water moving fast and the occasional drip from overhead pipes. I leaned against Rian as we walked, my breathing still uneven. The forced heat had left me drained and shaky. Kael walked on my other side, close but not touching. Lucien led, gun in hand, eyes scanning every shadow, he hadn't spoken since we left the tunnel. His jaw was tight, scent sharp with restrained aggression. "Stop," Kael said suddenly. we froze. He held up a hand, listening, water dripping, our breathing, nothing else. "Sorry, I heard it wrong." Lucien didn't argue, he just moved us deeper into the tunnel away from the mainland. I stumbled but Rian caught me before I could hit the ground. "Easy, I have got you," he murmured. My eyes met his, glassy but clear. "I am sorry, I am slowing

  • SCENTBOUND   Chapter 9 - Breach

    RIAN POV The alarm didn't scream, it humed. I was awake before it finished its first cycle, that's what years of running does to you. Lucien was already on his feet, gun in hand, moving toward the door. Kael was outside, shouting orders I couldn't hear through the reinforced steel. "Stay with Theo," Lucien said without looking back. "If it gets bad, take the maintenance shaft. Code 7741." "Like hell i am staying," I said, grabbing my jacket. His jaw tightened. "Rian-" "No, not this time." I wasn't staying behind, not while Theo was still weak to run on his own. Lucien stared at me for a second then nodded once."Stay behind me."The door opened into chaos. Smoke, shouting. The smell of burnt wiring and ozone. Task Force units had breached the east wing, four of them, tactical gear, rifles raised. Kael was in front of them, hands up. "Stand down!" he shouted. "These are protected assets under section 9, clause 3!" "Bullshit, Rourke," one of the agents spat. "c

  • SCENTBOUND   Chapter 8- Moving Targets

    RIAN POV Dawn came too fast. No sunrise through the safehouse windows, just the artificial grey of pre-dawn and the low hum of the city waking up without us. Lucien had the car idling out back by 5:12 Kael was already checking out the main exits, moving like a man who had slept with one eye open his whole life. Theo walked on his own now, but his hand stayed braced on the wall, His heat had been forced down, not resolved, that left him raw and unstable. I kept my scent low and steady so he wouldn't pick up on my own fraying control. "Back door's clear", Kael said, not looking at me. "We have twelve minutes before the next patrol sweep". Lucien nodded once. "Move". No one argued, arguing got people caught, I kept my hand on Theo's elbow, he didn't pull way, that was new before he would flinch at any contact that wasn't medical, as we crossed the loading dock. Cold concrete under my boots, the smell of oil and rain. Lucien's driver wasn't there, Lucien drove, of course

  • SCENTBOUND   Chapter 7- Quiet Before

    The safehouse did not feel safe. It was too small, too bare - one bed, one bathroom, a kitchenette that looked like it had not been used in years, Voss Biotech owned a dozen of places like this. Lucien called it off-grid and I called it a gilded cage with better locks. Theo was two rooms down, sedated and stable, Lucien's medic had done what she could, Kael had not left his side since we got here and I had not asked why. Lucien sat on the edge of my bed, watching me like I might vanish if he blinked. His rut had passed but the tension had not, we were both drowning in instinct. "You should rest", he said quickly. "So should you, you look like hell", I shot back. He almost smiled at that. I pulled my knees up to my chest, resting my chin on them, the silence between us was not comfortable, it was loaded, every word felt like it could tip us one way or the other. "Why me ", I asked finally. Lucien stared at me . "What?". "Out of everyone in this city, why did you fixate on me

  • SCENTBOUND   Chapter 6- Collateral

    The facility was silent as a tomb.Concrete walls, no windows, air that tasted like disinfectant an old fear. I had been in places like this before. They all smelled the same when you stripped away the bleach. Earlier Kael had come and he took Theo away to another room.The front doors blew inward with a roar of splintered metal and alarms, security scrambled, weapons raised, deep down I knew it was Lucien.He moved through them like a storm fast, brutal, precise. An S-class Alpha not on Suppressants was a natural disaster. I followed in his wake, keeping low, using the chaos to slip past, my mask was gone, my hoodie was too big, I looked like a kid who didn't belong in a firefight. Good they underestimated me. "Rian!". Lucien's voice cut through the noise, he had found me in under sixty seconds, of course you had, my scent was probably a bacon to him now. "Over here!". I shouted back, grabbing his arms as he passed. "Theo's in holding, level B2 and Kael's here".Lucien's ja
