1. The Night She Marked the King

last update Last Updated: 2025-04-14 23:16:08

Past. 

Freya breathed in sharply as she launched the dagger with accurate precision, causing it to cut through the air with the sound of a whoosh as it pierced into the tree right in the middle of the mark making a springy noise as its handle vibrated for a couple of seconds before stilling in place. 

The girl straightened as she glared at her aim. It was at least two to three centimeters to the left, which made her jaw tick. 

Freya was just 12 years old but she was angry at herself for not hitting the dagger right in the middle. She wanted perfection. Yanking out her beautifully carved silver dagger from the tree she walked back to her spot, this time she stepped a little further away from her usual spot and focused on the mark on the tree. 

Freya was all alone in the woods. This place was her hidden spot, which no one knew about. No one ever dared to wander this far in the woods so it was her safe place, or so she thought. 

Breathing in deeply, she raised her hand and was about to launch the dagger again when, all of a sudden, goosebumps rose on her flesh as she heard rustling nearby. This place was so securely hidden that she was sure no one would ever find this; it could be a wild animal. 

Freya faced in the direction from which the noise came. Her senses were on full alert as she launched the dagger in the direction from which the noise came. 

A couple of seconds passed, and the air was still but there was something eerily different in the surroundings, something darker. And then it hit her like a zap of lightning. 

The strong scent in the air. It was an Alpha. But not just any Alpha. The air seemed to quiver with his dominant presence, and just like that, a boy who was close to 15-16 years of age appeared through the woods. It wasn't his presence that startled her. It was those glaciers of cold blue eyes glaring at her that unsettled her, and that wasn't even the end of it. He was holding the sharp blade of her dagger between his two fingers. There was no blood on him, no cut, nothing. Her blade didn't even cut him. But it was made of silver, and it was burning him as he held the hilt of it.

Freya was sure that he didn't see that coming then how could he react so fast and stop the attack with zero injuries. 

She flinched visibly when he made a tsk sound. Freya instantly recalled her mother's wise words to stay miles away from Alphas. 

"An Omega," His voice was deeper than the deep sea and it was rich with dominance. It was unlikely for a teen of his age to have that deep voice and all those muscles. He looked strong. Bigger than most of the alphas his age. 

It was clear that he was surprised by her presence in the woods. 

"You shouldn't be out here all alone," He said darkly expecting the little girl with silver ash hair to flinch or probably run away. She had unique hair, he hasn't seen such hair before, instead of running away she stepped towards him. Raising her palm in front of him, she demanded. "My dagger," Her voice sharp and void of any fear which took him by surprise. 

"Mind your tone, little one," he growled lowly as the girl flinched back. Her heart thumped wildly, but she remained cold. 

Fearless. 

"My dagger!" Her voice was cold as she jutted her chin in the direction of her palm. 

Defiance danced through her fierce green eyes as he grabbed her jaw rather roughly with his free hand and yanked her to him.

She didn't rest her hand on his chest to steady herself, though he pulled her roughly, but her balance was good as she steadied herself, glaring back at him with equal fervor. 

"Aren't you scared?" His deep voice was deadly calm. The small hair on her skin quivered because of his alpha authority, but she refused to back off. Despite his hold on her jaw, she still jutted her chin out in defiance and uttered a single word. 

"No," Her voice was calm and her face was blank, causing him to smirk darkly. He twisted the dagger in his free hand, twirled it as if it were his favorite toy, and pressed it against her throat. 

"Respect me," He said dangerously. The dagger slightly burned her skin.

"Earn it!" She gritted, glaring up at him. 

For the first time in his 16 years of life. Ragnar was rendered utterly speechless. He was stunned by this little she-wolf omega who wasn't acting like an omega at all. She had piqued his interest. 

Ragnar pressed the dagger to her throat, expecting to see fear in her eyes, but the girl was calm. 

"Didn't your mom teach you how to be submissive like an omega?" He asked coldly. 

"Didn't your father teach you how to behave with girls?" She countered back, and his jaw ticked. His smirk disappeared. Now she was getting on his nerves. 

"You have got a sharp little tongue, don't you?" He hissed as the girl inhaled sharply. 

"I do," She agreed and yet again he was baffled by her. How old was she? 11-12? And she had the nerve to talk to him like that... 

"If you're done, give me my dagger?" She demanded yet again, though she was in his hold but she was fearless. 

"Take it-" The words barely left his lips when the girl charged forward. She abruptly jerked down, freeing herself from his hold, and the next thing she jumped on him with her legs on his shoulders, and she elbowed his head. He raised the dagger to hit her, but she swiveled on top of him, so now she sat on his shoulders while covering his eyes with her hands. 

She poked both of his eyes, making him scream as the dagger fell from his hand, and he winced, holding his eyes. The girl jumped off him, grabbed her dagger from the ground, and made a run for her life. She barely ran a few steps when he grabbed her nape, and she was yanked back and slammed on the rough ground. 

The fall was so brutal that it knocked the breath out of her lungs. She grabbed her elbow, which felt as if it had fractured. 

Before she could gather her bearings, the boy grabbed her throat in an attempt to punish her. Just when he began to choke her, Freya swung her dagger, causing him to move back. 

He expected her to run, but she charged at him. She hit his calf with all her might, causing him to fall on his knee, but Ragnar grabbed her wrist, yanking her down to her knees, and before he could tackle her, she swung the dagger, and a sharp pain exploded in his face. 

He growled in pain, pressing his hand on the wound as he glared at her with his good eye, only to notice fear on her face for the very first time. Seeing his blood might've done something to her because the next thing she was sprinting for her life. 

Ranger let out a throaty laugh, which sounded maniacal as he pulled to his feet chasing after her. 

Wounded. 

Outrageous. 

Curious. 

... But he never found her.

  • The Alpha King's Omega   82. The Witch of Shadows

    The cave carved into the heart of the Mountain of Darkness glowed faintly, lit by a fire that was no fire at all. Its flames burned pale blue, casting long, eerie shadows that writhed against the cavern walls like living things. The stone dripped with moisture, its veins glimmering faintly as though the mountain remembered the blood and battles buried in its bones.Freya sat close to the unnatural fire, its glow brushing warmth against her chilled skin, but no flame could quiet the storm inside her chest. The shadows seemed to lean closer, listening, watching as though the mountain itself hungered for her response to what had been revealed.Kyla, the Witch of Shadows, the woman who had embraced her and spoken the word granddaughter, sat across from her. Age clung to her in every line of her frail frame, but her clouded eyes shimmered with a sorrow time had never managed to bury. Ragnar stood near the cavern wall, tall and unyielding, his silver gaze sharp and unreadable. His presence

  • The Alpha King's Omega   81. The Witch Of Shadows

    The Mountain of Darkness loomed before them like a wound carved into the earth, a jagged scar that refused to heal. Its blackened slopes clawed at the sky, slicing the clouds into ragged shreds, while a crown of mist curled endlessly around its peaks like a shroud. The air grew colder the closer they came, every breath laced with frost and ash.The forest that surrounded its base was wrong. Trees leaned inward, their twisted limbs gnarled into shapes like broken bones, their bark split and oozing sap as dark as blood. No birds sang here. No leaves stirred. Only whispers drifted on a wind that had no source, voices threading through the silence, murmurs that felt like they were brushing against Freya’s very soul.Her chest tightened the moment her boots struck the ashen soil. It crunched beneath her like glass, black and brittle, as though it held the memory of lives burned and buried here. The shadows were heavier, thicker, slinking between the trees with a life of their own. The sile

  • The Alpha King's Omega   80. Edge of the Fire

    The night was cool, the silver hush of the stream threading softly behind them, yet neither Ragnar nor Freya felt its chill. Heat lingered, trapped between their bodies, their breaths still uneven from the kiss that had consumed them whole. The air was thick with it, desire, restraint, danger, each heartbeat an echo against the silence of the forest.Ragnar stood close, so close she could feel the tremor of his breath against her skin. One hand braced against the rough bark above her head, caging her in, the other firm at her waist, holding her as though letting go would undo him. His chest heaved, broad and unyielding, his eyes molten embers burning into hers, hungry, restless, alive with something he had long fought to suppress.Freya’s lips still tingled, swollen and bruised from his kiss. Her skin sang where he had touched her, fire coursing through her veins as though he had branded her. She tried to draw breath, but it came shallow, stolen by the nearness of him.He lowered his

  • The Alpha King's Omega   79. By The Stream

    The stream murmured like a secret kept by the earth, its silver ripples catching the pale shimmer of moonlight. Each wave fractured Freya’s reflection, breaking and mending her face with every current. She sat on a smooth stone at the water’s edge, her fingertips grazing the cool surface, as if the stream might cleanse the chaos twisting inside her.Behind her, Ragnar stood silent, broad shoulders cut against the night, his presence a living shadow. He was motionless, yet the air around him pulsed, tight with something coiled and caged, like a predator restraining itself.Nyra had led the horses deeper into the woods, leaving them alone. And in that solitude, the forest seemed to hush, listening, as though even the trees leaned closer. The night grew thick, pressing down until every breath between them was laden with unsaid truths.Ragnar moved. Slow, deliberate. His footsteps stirred the silence, but it was not sound that reached Freya first; it was his presence. The heat of him brus

  • The Alpha King's Omega   78. Journey

    The air grew colder with every mile that stretched between them and Ragnar’s castle. Behind them, the stronghold’s stone towers dissolved into a blur of mist and distance, until it felt as if the world itself had narrowed to only three figures, King, Witch, and Flame-born, and the desolate path leading toward the Mountain of Darkness.This was no ordinary road. The earth here seemed scarred, a wound carved into the land long ago that had never healed. The trees leaned too close, gnarled and twisted, their skeletal branches arching overhead like a canopy of reaching claws. Moss clung to their trunks in hues of black and sickly green, slick with dew that dripped from the bark like blood in the failing light. The wind that swept through the forest carried whispers, fragmented voices that slipped just out of reach, vanishing the moment one turned to listen.Even the horses sensed the corruption. Their hooves dragged reluctantly across the uneven earth, and their breath steamed harshly in

  • The Alpha King's Omega   77. Freedom

    The fire still burned in Freya’s veins when she rose to her feet, though her body trembled beneath the weight of what she was about to demand. Her voice, however, did not falter.“Ragnar,” she said, steady, each syllable laced with the centuries of suffering that echoed through her bloodline, “if you want me to stay, if you want me to fight at your side, then you must give me this. My people must be free. Every omega in this kingdom, every one of them. No more collars. No more chains. No more being treated as slaves or pets. If any alpha dares to strip them of their freedom, he will face punishment as severe as if he had defied the crown itself.”Her words hung in the air like a blade suspended at Ragnar’s throat.The silence that followed was suffocating. Ragnar stood at the edge of his desk, the firelight casting jagged shadows across the hard planes of his face. His dark eyes narrowed, sharp as steel, dissecting her, measuring her resolve as though testing if this was another battl
