The silver blade caught the dying amber light of the setting sun. Casting a long, cold shard of reflection across my tangled silk sheets.

I was pressed so hard against the headboard that the wood bit into my back.

But I barely felt it.

The metallic scent of the Omega rebel was a physical weight in the air. Wrapping around my throat, suffocating whatever fragile royal composure I had left.

In the mirror behind him, I saw it.

Glowing crimson initials.

    The door creaked open slightly.Then a small head popped through the gap, bearing a wide, toothy grin.His eyes scanned the dim room before landing directly on me. In an instant, those big round eyes sparkled with excitement.He slipped inside, glancing left and right with wide focus before scampering toward me on tiptoe.When he reached my side, he gave me a energetic little wave.My eyes twisted into a confused look as I stared down at the tiny intruder.'How did a child get here?''And a Beta? Is he one of them?''But he's a beta... aren't they all Omegas?'"Hello!" The boy chirped in a hushed, bubbly whisper that completely clashed with the dark atmosphere of the dungeon.He leaned in closer and put a finger to his lips."Shh! You have to promise not to tell anyone I came in here. The big brothers and sisters will super scold me if they catch me!"I blinked, still trying to process his presence. "Who are you?"He patted down his messy hair, trying and failing to look neat, before

    'I was a Prince of the Weirer Kingdom,''You mean a disgraceful prince of the Weirer Kingdom?''Alpha? Where did you go earlier? I didn't feel your presence.'He sneered. 'How the hell would I know? The next second, I just felt trapped in something dark. I couldn't even talk or move.'My face scrunched up in confusion. I wanted to ask him more, but he beat me to it.'And what in the seven hells did I just see earlier?'My Alpha half growled in my mind.'You fucking chickened out, huh? Letting that bitch get to you with some pathetic touch, then you go whimpering like a horny pup, you stupid coward.''Don't call him that,' another part of me snapped. 'He's our mate.''He's a bad mate,' the growl returned. 'No omega should act like that. He deserves to be thrown into a dungeon.''That's cruel,' I thought, trying to intervene.'Isn't he cruel too?' the voice countered.'Fucking look at the blood on your neck. Look at the blood on your back. Why let him treat you like that?''I didn't...

    They brought me to a place surrounded by huge rocks. The rebels didn't bother with mercy.They threw me onto my stomach, my face grinding into the hard dirt ground."Hh—th—HAAH..." I gasped.I could still deeply feel the mixture of pain and numbness in my thigh, and the nonstop bleeding.But that was nothing compared to the terror gripping my heart right now."Is that him?" I heard one of them ask.I tried to blink and look up, but I could barely make them out through the constant spinning and blurring of my vision."Start," a voice barked.Hands suddenly grabbed my shoulders and mercilessly hauled me up onto my knees.Both of my hands were tied behind my back again, pulled even tighter this time.I struggled to swallow as I caught the faint silhouette of someone walking toward me.Then I heard something that made my blood run cold."Fifty lashes," someone announced, his voice echoing across the open space. "For the Prince who thought he could walk free."And that was when I felt the

    The air in the clearing felt like it had turned to dust.The silence was loud.A pressure that made my lungs struggle to draw even the shallowest of breaths.Tai moved through the crowd like a predator through long grass. His presence radiating a danger that made the very atmosphere around us shudder.He stopped only a few feet away from me.He didn’t reach for his weapon.He simply stood there, his head tilted slightly, his unreadable gaze fixed on my broken, trembling form.I could feel his eyes roaming over the mud-caked ruins of my skin.The pathetic way I was clawing at the earth.And the raw, deep hole in my leg where the iron tip had torn through muscle and vein."Who did this?" His voice carried the weight of a death sentence.The Omega who had shot me stepped forward with his chest puffed out.A sick, proud grin plastered across his face."I did, Leader," the Omega boasted, his voice ringing with arrogance."He was skulking around the edge of the woods like a rat. I didn't wan

    "Ugh... ahh..." A wet, pathetic groan tore through my lips.I curled in on myself. My forehead pressing into the dirt as a quiet, broken sob racked my chest.The tears came instantly. Hot and entirely unbidden, blurring my vision into a useless, watery haze.I was a prince of the Weirer kingdom. I possessed the dominant bloodline of an Alpha. Yet here I was, curled in the mud. Crying like a helpless, terrified child.The Omega with the bow took a step forward.The crunch of his heavy boots against the dry leaves sounded like deafening thunder to my ringing ears.'Move. You have to move.'Pure, primal instinct overrode my shock. I had to get away.I pressed my bleeding hands flat against the rough ground.My torn fingernails digging desperately into the soil. With a shaky, painful heave, I tried to drag my body backward.My right leg trailed behind me like dead weight. The movement caused the arrow shaft to bump against a raised root in the dirt.Another sob ripped from my throat as the

    I didn't waste a single second.I reached across my body and clawed at the thick hemp rope binding my left wrist.'Hurry. Hurry. Hurry.'My fingers were trembling, I could barely grasp the knot. The rope was incredibly thick and rough, the coarse fibers biting into my skin like a knife.I dug my fingernails into the tight loops. Pulling and twisting with every ounce of strength my body possessed.A sharp spike of pain shot through my hand as one of my nails bent backward and snapped.A bead of blood welled up from the torn quick. But I clamped my jaw shut, swallowing the whimper of pain.I couldn't stop.I ignored the warm blood making my fingertips slick and dug into the knot again.'Come on!'With a final, desperate yank, the knot gave way.The thick rope uncoiled, and my left arm slumped down, weak and useless.I silently gasped. Massaging the bruised, raw flesh of my wrist.But I didn't let myself rest.I immediately sat up and dragged myself toward my bound ankles.The knots on my
