Lorien

The next morning, I woke up with tension coiled around my spine like a predator waiting to strike. My thoughts were still a mess from the night before—Cassius’s touch, his words, the fear in his voice when he promised not to doubt me. I wanted to believe it. But I knew better than to expect the world to work the way I wanted.

I dressed quickly and made my way to the abandoned building on the east side of the pack grounds, where I’d kept the man hidden. Abbot. That was his name—Abbot. I hadn't cared for it before. Names didn’t matter when people were confessing to sins soaked in blood.

The door creaked open when I pushed it, dust curling through the air. He was sitting exactly where I left him, but his energy had shifted. He looked like he’d spent the night wrestling with ghosts.

“You came back,” he muttered, eyes flickering up at me.

I folded my arms across my chest. “Of course, I came back.”

He stared at me for a long moment. “I don’t think I want to tell the Alpha anything an

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   The Trap is Set

    LorienI wasn’t sure about the plan. I’d nodded along, agreed to it, even put some of my own twists in just to feel like I had control—but inside, doubt crawled over every inch of my mind like vines twisting tight. Still, what choices did I have left? Every path forward was a gamble. I just had to pray that this one didn’t destroy what was left of me.The elder was right about one thing, though—the end would justify the means.We set the birthday celebration for that evening. It was risky, almost impulsively so, but Isabella was clever, and she moved fast. We couldn’t afford to give her more time. If she sensed suspicion, she’d shift her plans into overdrive, and that would put Cassius directly in the path of destruction. And I… for all the pain he’d caused me, I couldn’t bear to see him fall. Not like this. Not because of someone like her.The trip back to the house was a quiet one. The twins were unusually silent, which only made the guilt crawl deeper into my bones. I watched them

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   A Dangerous Truth

    LorienI left Cassius with that one word, not bothering to glance back at him. If I did, I knew I’d crumble.I clutched Caius’s hand in mine and wrapped my other arm around Lucian's shoulder as we moved briskly through the hallways. My chest burned with frustration, but I pushed it down, swallowing hard. There was no time for anger. Not right now.I needed to see the elders. I needed someone to listen. Someone to take me seriously before it was too late.I took the twins straight to the vineyard where I knew the elders were meeting. The sun was dipping into the horizon, casting golden light over the rows of grapes and ancient stone benches. A soft wind tugged at the edges of my shirt, and I tightened my grip on my boys.Lucian glanced up at me. “Where are we going, pops?”“To someone who might help,” I said quietly. “Just stay close to me, okay?”They both nodded, though Caius was already yawning.The truth? I knew the elders wouldn’t believe a word I said. Not really. They had always

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Tension Between Us

    CassiusI wished I could hold him.The way Lorien sat there, his face pale but tight with irritation, arms wrapped protectively around our boys like he was shielding them from me, it made something in my chest ache. I hated that I didn’t know how to fix things, how to reach him. The wall between us felt taller than ever, and every time I tried to scale it, it only seemed to grow.Lucian and Caius were settled on each of his thighs, clinging to him like they hadn’t seen him in years. Their little bodies were still, but I could see the way they watched me—Lucian with sharp eyes full of awareness beyond his age, Caius with something softer but no less cautious. I felt like a stranger in my own home.Their chef stood a few feet away, hands respectfully clasped, looking as if he wanted to disappear.“I asked you a question,” Lorien said sharply, eyes not leaving the chef. “Why are they back already?”The man bowed slightly. “They… they refused to eat, Alpha. They cried the whole night. Cai

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   The Angriest Pizza in Existence

    LorienI stormed out of Cassius’s office, doing everything I could not to let the tears fall. My throat burned. My eyes stung. But I wasn’t going to cry—not there. Not where everyone could see how much it hurt to be doubted again by the one person I kept trying to believe in.I walked fast, almost running, my heart pounding in rhythm with the rage building up inside me. The wind slapped my face, but it didn’t cool me down. Nothing could right now.I had told him the truth.I had given him a piece of the puzzle he kept claiming he wanted—the truth he said he was chasing—and what did he do? He looked me in the eye and asked for proof, like my word meant absolutely nothing. Like I hadn’t been through enough. Like I hadn’t seen enough. Like I wasn’t worth being trusted.Julian. Of all people. Julian. After everything that man had done, all the subtle, underhanded moves, the manipulation, the lies—Cassius still couldn't open his eyes to it. I felt like throwing something through the damn w

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Breaking

    CassiusIsabella was trembling, but I wasn’t falling for her act this time.She clutched at her stomach and let out a soft whimper, swaying like she might faint. “I-It’s nothing,” she stammered, pressing the back of her hand to her forehead. “Just… a little dizzy. That’s all.”I didn’t move.I didn’t buy it.My jaw was clenched so tightly it ached. My hands, resting on the edge of the desk, curled into fists. “Don’t lie to me again,” I said, my voice so low and cold I barely recognized it. “I’m not in the mood for your games, Isabella.”She gasped as if I’d slapped her. “Cassius,” she said, wounded. “How could you say that? I haven’t done anything! You’re hurting my feelings!”Her voice broke, and she collapsed into a chair dramatically, tears spilling from her eyes like she was putting on a show for the Moon Goddess herself. “I just want peace,” she whispered. “Why do you keep doing this to me? I’ve done everything to make this work. I’ve been patient, loving, loyal—”“Loyal?” I cut

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   The Mask Cracks

    Lorien“I’m not going to the pack house, Cassius,” I said, keeping my voice steady even though I knew the words would spark a fire.He stiffened instantly.The air in the cottage seemed to snap tight, the silence sharp enough to cut through.Cassius turned to face me fully, his jaw clenched so tight it looked like it hurt. “You’re unbelievable.”I blinked. “Excuse me?”“You always want to have your way,” he growled. “Every single time. You act like this is some game. Like your safety doesn’t matter.”I frowned, trying to understand the shift, the sudden edge in his tone. “That’s not what this is,” I muttered, dragging a hand through my hair. “There’s nothing for me at the pack house, Cassius. Nothing but more eyes watching me. I don’t need protection—I just need space.”His laugh was bitter and low. “You don’t need protection?” He took a step closer, his expression incredulous. “You were almost killed yesterday.”“And you think moving me into the pack house will stop that?” I snapped.
