Slowly, the wind ceased to sweep past her. The world stopped spinning for her. The roar of the crowd dimmed. The blood. The screams and the broken bodies. All of it faded into a silent chaos of blur.

All Freya could hear was the echo of his words again and again, circling in her mind like a mantra.

“Then bear my mark, little omega.”

Her heart had ceased to beat for a fraction of a second when she heard him and registered his words before her heart started beating again at a wild pace.

Her body locked up, her throat clogged up. It was as if someone had placed dozens of stones in her throat and she couldn't breathe. Her tongue felt heavy and foreign in her mouth as it refused to comply with her. Refused to move to her demands.

Time folded in on itself.

She stared at Ragnar. The very monster in royal skin.

He stood above them all, smug and calm, a god in his own twisted myth, hands behind his back like this was a negotiation, not a public execution.

Mark her? He was such a sick bastard.

  • The Alpha King's Omega   86. The Second Trial

    The fire tore her apart.Freya’s scream was soundless, ripped from her throat as the Chamber devoured the first vision and spun her into another. Her knees buckled, her fingers scraping against unseen ground, yet there was no ground, only a shifting abyss of shadow and flame.“Still standing,” Skyrana’s voice lilted, echoing in every direction. “How stubborn you are. How deliciously fragile.”Freya tried to answer, but her lungs filled with heat, not air. And then, sudden silence.When the fire cleared, she stood in the middle of the great hall of Ragnar’s palace. It was whole, untouched, lit with the golden glow of torches. Yet the silence was wrong. Too still. Too waiting.She turned slowly. Her breath froze.Bodies lay sprawled across the stone floor. Wolves. Servants. Nyra. Kyla. All lifeless, their eyes empty, their faces twisted in terror.And at the center of it all, her own hands.They were dripping with blood, fingers scorched with flame. The Sword of Flame hung loosely in he

  • The Alpha King's Omega   85. The First Trial

    Fire roared in silence.Freya stood rooted, breath trapped like a bird thrashing in a cage, her chest tight with terror she refused to show. The Chamber of Echoes had dissolved into something otherworldly, a vast void where molten light and fathomless shadow bled together in restless waves. There was no sky, no ground, only flame and darkness shifting like a living sea.And at its center stood her.Skyrana.The Flame-Born Queen.Tall and terrible, her very presence was a storm of ruin. Her silver hair spilled like rivers of molten steel, gleaming in firelight that did not touch the void. Her eyes were endless, blue pits edged in fire, depths that spoke of worlds burned to ash. When she smiled, it was a smile that promised kingdoms crushed, thrones split, oceans boiled dry. A smile that could split the world in two.“So,” Skyrana breathed, her voice weaving through the air like smoke, curling around Freya’s bones until she felt it inside her marrow. “The vessel dares to stand before th

  • The Alpha King's Omega   84. The Chamber of Echoes

    The air in the mountain shifted the moment Kyla’s words fell. The blue fire sputtered and hissed, shadows stretching long and thin as though the stone itself bent closer to listen. The silence no longer felt empty; it pressed in heavy and alive, a presence crouched just beyond sight, breathing with them.Freya’s pulse thundered against her ribs, so loud it seemed to echo in the cavern. She had agreed. The words had left her mouth with defiance, but now the truth of them settled like chains forged from iron: she would face Skyrana. Flame to flame. Soul to soul.Kyla rose slowly, her frail body quaking with the effort. Yet the shadows bent around her, carrying her weight like attendants to their mistress. Her clouded eyes caught the firelight and gleamed faintly, touched with something not wholly human. “The Chamber lies deep within this mountain,” she murmured, her voice brittle yet edged with reverence. “Carved by the first flame when it fell from the sky. It is a place where no lie c

  • The Alpha King's Omega   83. The Witch’s Warning

    The silence in the cavern stretched long, taut as a blade suspended over their heads. The pale-blue fire in the hollowed chamber hissed faintly, shadows writhing across the walls like restless serpents. Nyra’s earlier words still hung in the air, heavy as iron, and all eyes turned toward Kyla, the Witch of Shadows.The old seer’s hands trembled where they still clutched Freya’s, her frail fingers digging in with unexpected strength. Her knuckles blanched white, and her chest rose in shallow, uneven breaths. The grief etched into her face deepened into something rawer, more jagged, fear.“No…” The word broke from her cracked lips like shattered glass scattering across stone. Her clouded eyes widened, reflecting the firelight with a sheen of dread. “You ask me to do the one thing I dared not even dream of. To sever her from Skyrana… to tear apart a soul already bound by fire.”Freya’s throat tightened. Her voice quavered, but desperation made it sharp. “But if we don’t, she’ll take me o

  • 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
