THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA 107. Broken Alpha
Chapter 107: Broken Alpha ROWAN’S POVThe gates of the pack house loomed ahead like silent judges as I stumbled through them under the moonlight. My legs felt heavy with every step and my chest burned from the long run back. Guards nodded at me but I could not meet their eyes. I kept my head down and pushed through the main doors into the quiet halls. The familiar scent of home should have brought comfort. Instead it twisted the knife deeper because she was not here. I walked straight to our shared quarters and stopped at the doorway. The bed still carried faint traces of her scent mixed with mine. It felt empty and cold. I stepped inside and closed the door behind me with a soft click that sounded too loud in the silence. My hands shook as I leaned against the wall. The weight of what I had done crashed over me all at once. Damien would marry her tonight under the full moon in his territory. With her wearing a gown and standing beside him while I sat here like a fool who had hande
THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA 106. Blood and Vows
Chapter 106: Blood and Vows DAMIEN’S POVAnya looked straight at me with tired, red-rimmed eyes and asked the question that hung heavy between us. “What next?”I took a deep breath and stood taller in front of her. The lantern light flickered across her pale face as I gave her the answer I had planned for so long. “We are getting married tonight. The full moon will rise soon and the ceremony will take place in the courtyard. Everything is prepared. You will become my wife before the night ends.”Her eyes widened in shock and she shook her head rapidly. “No. No, Damien. Absolutely not. I cannot marry you. I will not do it.” She pushed herself up from the bed with shaky legs and backed away from me. Panic flashed across her features as she wrapped her arms around herself. I stayed where I stood and watched her closely. “Rowan abandoned you. He walked away like a coward and left you here with me. Cassian turned and left the moment he realized he would not win you tonight. I am the onl
THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA 105. Abandoned
Chapter 105: Abandoned ANYA’S POV My eyelids felt heavy as I slowly blinked them open. The soft flicker of lantern light filled the chamber and cast long shadows across the stone walls. My body ached everywhere, especially in my head, where a dull throb still pulsed with every heartbeat. I lay in the large bed with thick blankets pulled up to my chest. As my vision cleared, I noticed two figures in the room with me. Damien sat in a wooden chair near the window with his elbows resting on his knees while Cassian leaned against the far wall, arms folded tightly across his chest. I pushed myself up against the pillows and scanned the room again. My heart picked up speed as I realized the space beside me stood empty. No sign of Rowan anywhere. “Where is Rowan?” I asked, my voice coming out hoarse and weak. Cassian let out a sharp, mocking laugh that echoed off the walls. He shook his head with clear disdain. “That pathetic alpha left you here like a fucking coward. He turned around a
THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA 104. Bitter Choices
Chapter 104: Bitter Choices DAMIEN’S POV I stepped out of the chamber and closed the door quietly behind me. The hallway stretched long and shadowed with torches flickering along the stone walls. Cassian walked ahead with that arrogant stride of his, his dark cloak blending into the dim light. I knew he was the only one who could pull me back when the curse took hold completely. As much as I hated it, I needed to talk to him before another wave hit. I caught up to him near the wide stone balcony that overlooked the courtyard. Cool night air brushed against my face as I called out. “Cassian, wait. We need to discuss the curse. It grows stronger every time it returns and you are the only one who can calm the darkness when it spirals.” Cassian stopped and turned slowly with a mocking smile on his lips. He crossed his arms and leaned against the balcony rail as moonlight cast sharp shadows across his features. “So the great alpha comes begging again. How pathetic. You cannot even cont
THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA 103. Not Enough
Chapter 103: Not EnoughROWAN’S POVI paced the edges of the dimly lit chamber while the healer worked over Anya’s still form on the large bed. We had moved her here quickly after she collapsed, the same room where the fight had nearly destroyed everything. My ribs ached from the brawl and my knuckles still bled, but none of that pain came close to the guilt eating me alive inside.She lay so pale against the dark sheets, her chest rising and falling in shallow breaths. I had failed her again. Every time danger closed in, I ended up watching her suffer because I could not protect her properly. My wolf whined deep within me, restless and ashamed.The old healer finally straightened up and wiped her hands on a cloth. She looked at the three of us with a tired expression. “She exhausted her powers too fast. The magic burst out strong but she has not mastered control yet. Every time she pushes like that, it drains her life force directly. She needs rest and she must avoid situations that
THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA 102. Fading Light
Chapter 102: Fading Light ANYA’S POVI screamed at the top of my lungs. “Stop it!”The three of them kept tearing into each other like wild beasts in the middle of the chamber. Fists flew and bodies slammed together with sickening thuds. Blood already smeared the stone floor while grunts and snarls filled the air. Rowan grappled with Cassian as Damien drove another brutal punch into Rowan’s side. They refused to listen.My heart pounded with panic and frustration. I could not watch them destroy one another any longer.Power surged through my veins without warning. It rose faster and hotter than before, fueled by fear and anger. Moonlight magic mixed with my wolf instincts and rushed to my hands in a bright silver glow. I thrust both palms forward and released everything I had in one desperate burst.A powerful wave of energy exploded outward from me. It slammed into the three men with brutal force and flung them apart like rag dolls. Rowan crashed against the far wall with a heavy gr
