DREY'S POV

The sky had begun to darken again.

I stood outside the main hall, staring out toward the woods, trying to piece myself back together. The truth was, I didn’t know what the truth was anymore.

Clarissa was still missing. The search teams had returned exhausted and empty-handed. And inside, Helen waited patiently, too patiently for me to make my decision. The pressure to mark her publicly grew heavier with each hour that passed. But my heart... it wasn’t in it.

My thoughts had been erratic lately, twisted. Images, dreams, no, nightmares played in my mind every night. Clarissa lying. Clarissa laughing behind my back. Clarissa betraying me with another. I’d see flashes of her smile and feel rage instead of warmth. None of it made sense. It wasn’t who I was. It wasn’t who she was.

And still, the dreams kept coming.

The door behind me creaked, and I turned.

Camelia stood in the doorway, a long cloak wrapped around her shoulders, her silver-streaked hair catching what little light

  • The Omega Queen   Chapter 76

    The days between the fifteenth mountain and the sixteenth stretched into something strange, a rhythm I could never quite trust. My body moved, my feet carried me forward, but it was as if time itself was bending around me. The fifteenth mountain had nearly broken me; the fire that licked at my skin, and the confession that ripped out of my throat like a jagged blade. For days after, I still felt the burn between my toes, even though the flames had died. My body and my heart remembered.Jasmine walked steadily at my side, her paws a soft and constant sound against the stone. I leaned into her warmth when the path grew narrow, and when the winds grew sharp, she pressed her body close, grounding me. Blindness had long since become my shadow, so it was not new. But on this journey, it felt different. My eyes may not have seen the world, but my skin, my ears, my nose, my heart had learned to notice every little change. The way the wind carried the sharp scent of pine. The way the air thin

  • The Omega Queen   Chapter 75

    The path from the fourteenth mountain to the fifteenth stretched on like an endless ocean. My body ached from the last trial, the memory of Azkael’s chains and the weight of regret still heavy on my heart. But I had chosen to let one regret go, and that choice gave me a strange lightness, as if my soul had shed a stone it had been carrying for years.The air grew hotter with every step Jasmine and I took. My skin prickled with the dry heat long before the ground began to change. Pebbles crunched under my boots, sharp and gritty, and the faint smell of smoke reached my nose. The silence of the mountain pass was broken by occasional crackles, like wood burning far away, and the sound made Jasmine’s ears twitch. She nudged against my side, steady and sure as always, her warm body guiding me when my blindness made the world an unseen blur.I could feel the heat of fire before I reached where it was. This kind of fire was not the type that cooks a meal or lights a hearth, but fire that s

  • The Omega Queen   Chapter 74

    I could still feel the echo of the last trial clinging to me as Jasmine and I left the mountain of madness behind. My legs trembled with exhaustion, though I tried not to let it show. The thirteenth mountain had nearly broken me; the screams, the confusion, and the way my own mind had seemed to turn against itself. Even now, faint traces of those phantom voices whispered at the back of my head like lingering smoke. I focused on the steady brush of Jasmine’s fur under my hand, grounding myself in her warmth. She had become more than a guide. She was my anchor. Without her, I would have been lost a long time ago.The path leading us down was steep, scattered with loose stones that clattered and rolled beneath my boots. Each sound bounced into the silence around us, reminding me of how fragile my balance really was. I tightened my hold on Jasmine’s harness. “Easy, girl,” I whispered. “One step at a time.” She slowed her pace, as though she understood my weariness.The wind carried the sc

  • The Omega Queen   Chapter 73

    I still carried the grief I felt from the twelfth mountain but the weight was not as intense as it was when I was on the mountain.The thirteenth mountain waited for me like a question I did not yet know how to answer. Each step I took forward seemed to bring with it a strange pull, as though the air itself had begun to fray at the edges. I could not see it, of course, but my skin prickled with the sense that the world here was… unstable. It was too quiet at first, then it became too loud, and was always shifting, never steady. I clung to Jasmine’s touch more than I wanted to admit. She had been my anchor through every trial, and I had learned by now that when her body stiffened, danger was near, and when she leaned into me, it was her way of reminding me not to lose myself.The ground beneath my boots felt uneven, as if it sloped one way and then another, even though I walked straight. My cane scraped along the path, finding dips and stones that should not have been there, but the m

  • The Omega Queen   Chapter 72

    The twelfth mountain waited like a shadow of sorrow itself. Its slopes were not steep, nor were its ridges sharp, but something in the air of that came from exhaustion of the body. No, this was the kind that settled inside the ribs, a weight that belonged to memory more than to the climbing of the mountains.Jasmine whined softly as her paws padded against the rocky path. Even she could feel it. Her usual steady tug on the harness slowed, her ears twitching, as though she knew that what lay ahead was not stone or storm, but something deeper, something old.I tightened my fingers on the strap of her harness. “It’s alright, girl,” I whispered, though my voice betrayed me with a tremor. It wasn’t really her I was trying to comfort. It was me.As I climbed, I noticed an unexpected silence. The silence was so thick that it pressed against my ears, as though the world had been muffled. My cane touched rock, dirt, and loose gravel, but the sounds seemed swallowed before they could echo.I ha

  • The Omega Queen   Chapter 71

    It felt beautiful surviving the ordeal from the tenth mountain. I thought I wouldn't survive it but I did. I was on a mission, I wouldn't allow anything to hinder me no matter how difficult it seemed.The eleventh mountain felt heavier before I even reached its base.Each step was slower, weighted not only by the climb but by the memories of all I had already endured. My body ached, my breath dragged in uneven bursts, and yet there was something deeper gnawing at me; something hollow, pulling at the center of my chest like I was already missing something I hadn’t even lost yet.Jasmine padded steadily beside me, her paws brushing against loose stones, her breathing calm even when mine wasn’t. Every time I faltered, her shoulder pressed against my leg, firm and reassuring, like a hand guiding me forward. I leaned into her warmth because I needed it now more than ever.The air grew colder the higher we went. It was not the sharp, biting cold like snow or frost, but a chilling emptiness
