Lorien

Blood.

It clung to the edges of my watch, soaked into the leather band, flaked across the ticking glass like dried guilt.

I stared at it, that vintage thing I’d gotten from my mother’s old box when I first left Blood Fang. I hadn’t worn it in years. But when Caius collapsed, I’d grabbed it from my drawer without thinking—like it might ground me somehow.

Now it ticked past midnight with a soft click that felt louder than thunder.

I didn’t want Cassius to see me like this.

But it had happened.

He’d seen the guard—broken, breath wheezing through blood-soaked teeth, bones jutting at wrong angles like snapped twigs beneath his skin. He’d seen the storm in me. The one I kept caged so well, until someone tried to hurt my sons.

My children were off-limits.

Always.

And I knew this pack. Knew how they watched, how they whispered. Weakness was an invitation for war. And I’d be damned if I let anyone see me as prey again.

Still… I couldn’t stop the sour taste of regret from coating the bac

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Ashes of Oaths

    LorienI gritted my teeth, hating myself for even being here, hating the fact that Mathias had to crawl his way back into my life again. Every second of it felt like a curse that refused to lift. I kept wondering how much longer I could keep bearing all of this weight pressing down on me, because the truth was, I couldn’t anymore. Not without breaking. Not without shattering into pieces that would never fit back together.Cassius’s hand landed gently on my arm, grounding me even though my insides felt like they were being torn apart. His warmth pressed through me, and he leaned close, his voice low but steady.“What’s the matter?” he asked.The question should have been simple, but it felt like it split me wide open. I swallowed, feeling the pressure build in my chest. “I need to talk to you… separately,” I muttered, my throat thick.His golden eyes studied me for only a heartbeat before he nodded. Without hesitation, he led me out, his hand brushing against mine as though to silently

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Shattered Oaths

    Lorien The moment my fingertips brushed Cassius’s arm, he shoved me back so sharply that my chest caved with more than just the force of his hand. It was the silence that cut deepest—silence where his voice should have been, silence where his arms should have caught me.“Cassius—” My voice cracked, my throat so tight it hurt to speak. “It’s not how it looks. I swear to you, I was never going to do anything that would hurt you.”His back stiffened, his shoulders broad and rigid like the very wall I could never climb. Slowly, he turned, his eyes wild fire and storm all at once.“Then why, Lorien?” His words tore through me like claws. “Why did you make such a foolish mistake in the first place?”I couldn’t hold his gaze. I couldn’t bear to see what I had carved into him with my own hands. My eyes dropped to the rain-slick ground, my chest heaving like something inside me was shattering beyond repair. A broken sound escaped me as I sniffed, my vision blurring.“I… I didn’t have a choice

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Bound in Shadows

    Lorien I didn’t understand what he was saying. No matter how much I tried to make sense of his twisted words, they coiled around my head like snakes, hissing in riddles that had no meaning. My patience, already stretched thin by his very presence, snapped like brittle glass.“What are you even talking about, Mathias?” I snapped, my voice sharper than I intended, but I didn’t care. “If you want to say something, then be clear about it. Because right now, you’re getting on my last damn nerve—and it’s not funny.”He looked up at me from where he sat, bruised and battered, eyes dark and unfocused like a man who had stared too long into madness. His lips curled into something between a smirk and a grimace. “You promised me, Lorien,” he rasped, his voice low and broken, yet steady with conviction. “When you were about to serve by my side, you swore you would do it with all honesty and love. But what happened? You didn’t fulfill your words. And now… now we’re back in a worse place than befo

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   The Weight of Old Chains

    LorienI woke up with a kind of restless energy thrumming through my veins. Excitement. That was the only word for it. My chest felt lighter than it had in years, like maybe—just maybe—the air wasn’t so hard to breathe anymore. Cassius had found me worthy enough to stand beside him, to be part of his team. His words from last night still echoed in my mind, almost surreal. After everything we’d been through—his rejection, my running, the wars between us—he had chosen me. Me.I pressed my face into the pillow and exhaled a shaky laugh. It was stupid how much it meant, but my heart swelled with pride I couldn’t contain. For the first time in so long, I wasn’t just a burden, or the boy everyone wanted to break. I was something more.But the bubble burst as soon as my gaze fell on the table across the room.A single folded letter lay there, sharp and deliberate against the wood. I froze, every ounce of joy draining from me as if my veins had turned to ice. The handwriting on the front was

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Inquisitive Hearts

    LorienI couldn’t stop staring at him.Cassius had always been the storm—loud, fierce, brutal in every sense of the word. He wasn’t supposed to be this… soft. He wasn’t supposed to look at me as though the world outside didn’t matter, as though the battles, the betrayals, the scars between us had dissolved into nothing.My throat went dry. “What… what’s gotten into you?”His lips curved, not in that cruel smirk he always used to wear, but in something gentler, something that threw me off balance. “You,” he said simply, his voice low but unshaking. “You’ve gotten into me.”I blinked, unsure if I’d misheard. My chest tightened painfully, my heart fighting to understand the meaning behind his words.Cassius leaned closer, his scent wrapping around me like fire and smoke, burning, intoxicating. “I’ve realized something,” he continued, his tone firm yet strangely vulnerable. “The problems between us won’t vanish. I’m not foolish enough to think they will. But I can damn well make sure that

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Between Fury and Desire

    CassiusThe bar was quiet at midnight, the kind of silence that made every sound feel heavier than it should. Only the faint hum of the refrigerator and the occasional creak of the old wooden beams broke through the stillness. Even the shadows seemed to lean in closer, clinging to the corners as though they, too, were listening.Lorien sat hunched at the counter, the soft amber glow of the hanging lamp throwing sharp lines across his face. His glass was already half-drained, his fingers curled around it like it was the only thing holding him together. His back was rigid, shoulders squared in that stubborn way of his that screamed he wasn’t going to let me in—not tonight, maybe not ever.And yet, here I was.Because sleep was impossible without him.I dragged the stool beside him out, the legs scraping against the wood floor with a groan that echoed too loud in the stillness. I lowered myself into it, folding my arms on the bar. “You planning to drink yourself into oblivion tonight?” I
