Lorien

I was still reeling from what had just happened. The image of that glow—the way it danced around Caius like some silent, ancient guardian—hadn’t left my mind. But what haunted me even more was the sinking feeling curling at the edges of my chest.

I hadn’t done anything useful for this pack. Not really.

Sure, I’d completed a few well-calculated missions. Smuggled in some high-demand narcotics the pack relied on. Killed three people.

I forced that last thought back into the dark place I kept it. I didn’t want to think about the blood that still lingered beneath my nails, even after so many washes.

But when it came to the one thing that might’ve truly mattered—helping Matthias secure drugs from my former pack—I’d been absolutely useless. Every lead I’d chased had turned cold. Every route, blocked. And I hated that it made me feel disposable again. Replaceable. Like my only worth was in what I could do, not who I was.

The conversation I’d just had with Matthias had already left a s

    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.

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Addicted to the Alpha

    LorienI tried to act like I didn’t care. Truly, I did. I kept my eyes averted, my expression impassive, my spine straight like the chains that had bound me weren’t still etched into my skin. But the moment Cassius walked past me and caught my scent, something primal ignited between us. Something that didn’t ask for permission.He paused.Inhaled.His nostrils flared, and I hated the way my body responded.Craved it.The bond curled itself around my spine like smoke—intoxicating and thick. The same pull I’d spent years fighting against pressed itself into every nerve ending, humming beneath my skin with a sick heat. My fingers twitched, and my knees almost buckled. I clenched my jaw to stop the shiver that tore through me when I felt his breath brush the side of my face.I didn’t want this.But my body? It didn’t care. It remembered everything.And then, the chains fell.The clatter of metal hitting the ground echoed louder than it should’ve. It felt like a death bell and a resurrecti

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Shattered Facades

    CassiusThe moment I received the coordinates, I didn’t wait. My body moved with instinct, rage simmering just beneath the surface. I shifted into my wolf, paws thundering across the ground as I followed the trail toward the borderlands. I could feel it in my bones—Isabella was up to something, and I was going to find out what.I spotted her slipping through a narrow pathway, her cloak dragging through the dirt like she didn’t care who saw her anymore. She glanced around, cautious but not nearly cautious enough. I kept low, weaving between trees until she disappeared behind the worn door of a crumbling house on the edge of the territory.I shifted back, my breathing controlled, and climbed the rusted iron fence silently, crouching against the upper wall. My eyes scanned the area, heart hammering. I didn’t know what I’d find, but the air reeked of secrets.Inside, I saw her—Isabella—moving toward a man sitting near the shadows.Abbot.The traitor.I strained to hear them, leaning close

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   Shattered Illusions

    CassiusThe second I caught sight of the figure in the black hoodie, my body moved before my mind could even register what I was doing. Instinct took over—primal, urgent, and laced with fury. I took off at full speed, my boots pounding against the broken ground. The stench of smoke and scorched wood still lingered in the air, a cruel reminder of the chaos that had unfolded earlier.The figure ahead of me moved quickly, weaving between collapsed fences and tight alleyways, clearly familiar with the terrain. But no one outran me. Especially not tonight. Especially not after the week I’d had. My mate—my Lorien—was locked in a cell because of the lies weaved so intricately around him. My sons—my flesh and blood—had been forced into hiding like criminals. And now, someone thought they could sneak around in my territory without answering for it?Not on my damn watch.I moved faster, my legs cutting through the haze of ash until I was right behind him. With a low growl, I lunged and tackled

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   The Fire Behind Their Eyes

    CassiusI swallowed the lump in my throat, but it didn’t go away. It sat there like guilt—thick and heavy and immovable. I had just condemned Lorien in front of everyone. I knew it. The way they’d looked at him when I gave the command… like he was filth. Like he had brought shame to us all.Like I didn’t love him with everything in me.But I had no choice.No fucking choice.The elders were still standing there like they wanted to say something. Like they had the right to protest after everything. After their judgment, their fake righteousness, their blind allegiance to rules that did nothing but destroy the people they were supposed to protect.“Get lost,” I snapped.The words came sharp and low, but the fury behind them made them scatter. “I don’t want to see any of you until I say otherwise. If I even catch wind that you’ve spoken about this to anyone, I’ll personally rip out your tongues.”They all bowed quickly and left.I turned, pacing. My boots thudded against the marble floor

  • The Alpha's Rejected Omega   The Chains that Remain

    LorienI couldn’t breathe.My chest felt like it had caved in. Like something heavy and jagged had crushed it from the inside out, and I was left picking through the debris of what once was my heart. The kiss still lingered on my lips like a poison. Cassius’s kiss. It was seared into me, mocking everything I thought we had. Everything I thought he was.And now, after everything, I was being dragged away like a criminal.My lips trembled, and I bit down on them hard, as if that would make the memory disappear. It didn’t. All it did was draw blood. I tasted iron and betrayal.The tears were falling fast now. I didn’t want them to. I didn’t want to give Cassius the satisfaction. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t stop them. My vision blurred, the hallway twisting and warping like a nightmare. I could barely see him anymore. Cassius. He didn’t come after me. He didn’t even look.He just let them take me.The cell they threw me into this time was worse than the last. Smaller. Colde
