Zev’s POV

I’ve been itching for a fight. For days, I've held back, letting my legs move on instinct while my mind gnaws on things I can’t quite name.

The hunger, the cold, the memory of her eyes when she turned to run. And now—finally—action.

The Moonborn bastards circle us like wolves scenting blood. Perfect.

I stretch my fingers, rolling my neck.

The leather of my coat creaks, and the wind curls around me like it knows what’s coming. I can feel it building inside—my wolf—growling under my skin, craving release. But I can’t let it out. Not here. Not yet.

They lunge first.

I duck low, spin, my coat flaring behind me as I drive my elbow into a hunter’s ribs. The crunch is satisfying.

I pivot, grab the next one by the collar, and slam his face into the frozen earth. Electricity crackles to my left—someone aims a stun probe. I twist just in time, feeling the heat of it skim past my cheek.

They’re fast, trained. But I’m faster.

My boots slide across the dirt as I leap into the air, ki

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 11 The Thing in the Woods

    Alyssa’s POVThe sound comes out of the blue—low, deep, dragging against the floor of the earth. I jolt awake, heart pounding in my chest like war drums. My mouth is dry. My limbs feel heavy like I haven’t moved in days. I push myself up, blinking the sleep out of my eyes, and I see him.Zev.He’s standing at the window, peering through a narrow crack in the wooden frame, his body stiff, shoulders tense.“What was that?” I whisper, rushing to his side.“Be quiet,” he hisses without looking at me. “Keep still. Maybe it’ll leave.”“Maybe what will leave?” I ask, and my voice cracks. There’s fear threading into my words, and I can feel it rising in my chest. “Zev?”“I told you,” he mutters, eyes never leaving the shadows outside. “There are worse things out here, Alyssa. Things that don’t belong in any world.”He unsheathes a blade—long, dark steel that glints with a faint blue sheen. I’ve never seen him like this. Not Zev. He’s always so sure of himself, cocky even. He charges into tr

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 12 From the darkness

    Alyssa’s POVDarkness wraps around me like a heavy blanket.I drift. Float. Fall. Pain ripples through my limbs like fire licking every nerve. I want to scream, but I can’t even move. Can’t breathe.Shapes blur in and out—shadows bending over me, voices muttering, none of it clear. But I remember the bite. The teeth sinking in. My scream.I remember the howl. My howl. Wild and broken.“She’s not healing,” someone says, their voice strained.“What’s happening to her?” a different voice, panicked.“The shuck’s poison is running through her blood,” the first answers, grim.I try to shift, to heal, to reach my wolf—but nothing answers. Why isn’t she healing me? Why can’t I feel her?Am I dying?I sink again. Deeper. Into dreams that aren’t mine. I see a figure—faceless, but warm. A presence. Familiar. I try to speak, to call for help, for answers, but no sound escapes me.Then comes the burn.It spreads through my veins like acid. I twist. Writhe. Silent screams echo inside my head. My sk

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 13 The first truth

    Zev's POVArthur stands near the hearth, his arms crossed, eyes thoughtful beneath his shaggy brows. I sit on the edge of the table, Cara by the wall, quiet like always. She doesn’t speak unless spoken to—still adjusting, I guess. “She’s the strongest werewolf I’ve ever seen,” Arthur says, voice low and sure. I blink. “What do you mean?” He looks at me like it should be obvious. “Zev… I’ve read every record I could find, every old druid journal in this grove. No one survives a shuck bite. No one stays themselves after that much venom. She didn’t turn. She didn’t die. I’ve never seen anything like it.” My chest tightens. Alyssa. “And the books?” I ask, standing up and pacing. I can’t stop moving. “Anything in them about her—about what she is?” Arthur shakes his head. “Not yet. But I’ll keep looking.” I nod and mutter thanks, then head out the door. I need air. I need to see her.The night wraps around me like a cloak. The moon spills silver across the grove, lighting the trees a

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 14 The kiss

    Alyssa’s POVThe warmth still lingers on my skin—wrapped around me like a second breath. I don’t know if it’s the grove or the man beside me... or if it’s me. If I’ve changed. If I’m changing.Zev’s fingers slide into my hair again, gentle but full of a hunger I feel humming through my whole body. Then his lips are on mine once more. Deeper this time. Slower. Like he’s trying to memorize every curve, every breath. My hands find their way to his face, brushing over the sharp line of his jaw, the stubble on his chin scratching my palm.Gods... I want him. I want to lose myself in him—right here under the moonlight, where the air tastes like magic and wind swirls around us like it knows our names.I tug at his shirt, fingertips brushing his stomach, warm and hard beneath the fabric.But he stops me.Zev pulls back, breath ragged, chest heaving. “Alyssa…”His voice is hoarse. Shaken.I step back, flushed and embarrassed. “Sorry,” I whisper, not sure if I mean it.But he shakes his head.

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born    Chapter 15 Blood clan

    Alyssas POV The voice slices through the silence like a dagger through skin.My breath catches in my throat. It’s cold. Too cold. I can feel the blood in my veins turn to ice. Every muscle in my body tightens as I stare into the darkness. Shadows shift. Then they step out.Rogues. Blood clan.My heart pounds against my ribs like it’s trying to claw its way out. My palms are clammy, the fear creeping up my spine like fingers of frost.“What do you want?” I snarl, even though my voice trembles at the end.One of them—tall, broad, with yellow teeth and wild eyes—throws his head back and laughs.“You’re the omega, aren’t you?” he says, voice gravelly and cruel. “You’ll fetch a pretty penny when we drag you back to that fancy Moonborn pack.”The others cheer. Loud, howling, mocking. It’s like a game to them. Like we’re prey caught in a snare.My jaw tightens. “So that’s what you were doing when you killed that little girl’s parents?” I demand, voice shaking with rage.He pauses, eyes glea

    Zevs POVThe Grove doesn't feel like a secret anymore.It feels like a home.I watch the druids work, their hands glowing faintly with magic as they reinforce the outer border with spell runes and roots that hum when you get too close. The air here is softer, calmer… safer.And in the middle of it all, is her.Alyssa.She moves like she belongs to this place.Like the trees lean toward her without realizing it, like the moonlight waits to fall where she walks.She's talking to one of the new rogues—a boy with a limp and scared eyes—and she touches his arm gently, reassuring him.She’s not just surviving anymore.She's building something.She's changing everything.The Omega, now slowly building a pack.Thirteen new rogues. Seven druids. All rescued. All choosing to stay. To believe. Because of her.“This is wonderful,” I say quietly, my voice barely breaking through the hum of life around us.Alyssa turns slightly, her eyes still on the druids.“I know,” she whispers. “I just… I don’t

    .Alyssa's POVThe night air is warm, but I feel colder than ever—until he touches me.Zev’s hands find mine as I stand there, heart pounding like it’s trying to break out of my chest. His golden eyes search my face, flickering with something profound… something I can’t name. The silence between us is heavy, thick with tension and want. "I want you," he whispers, voice rough, low, desperate. "I want you to be mine, Alyssa."The way he says my name—it does something to me, like a fire sparking inside my chest. I lean in and our mouths crash together like we’ve been holding back for too long. His kiss is wild, hungry, like he's afraid this might be our last. My fingers slip into his hair, tugging gently, and he groans against my lips. I feel his arms wrap around me, strong and sure, pulling me closer until there’s no space left between us."Are you sure?" he whispers against my mouth, breath hot, trembling slightly."Yes," I breathe, not even recognizing my own voice.

Cool morning air brushes against my skin, tickling me awake.I turn slowly, still half tangled in the warmth of sleep, reaching out with a lazy smile.But he’s not here.My fingers touch only empty grass.My heart dips.I sit up, blinking the sleep from my eyes, brushing curls from my face.Zev’s coat lies beside me, his scent clinging to it like a promise.I pull it into my arms, hugging it tightly to my chest. It feels like him. Safe. Fierce. Mine.I stand, wrapping the coat around my bare shoulders before getting dressed. The breeze dances across my skin, but the chill doesn't bother me. I feel too warm inside. Happy. Whole.I walk slowly through the grove, fingers brushing against leaves, toes sinking into soft earth. The trees sway gently, like they’re whispering secrets to one another. I can’t stop smiling.I feel Zev in my soul.Maybe it’s fate. Maybe he’s my mate.Laughter echoes from ahead.I gla

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 39: Storm Warnings

    Zev’s POVFear is a strange thing.It creeps in slow, like a fog at the edge of your vision. You don’t notice it at first—just a weight in your chest, something crawling behind your ribs. Then it wraps around your spine, and you can’t breathe quite right.That’s what I feel now.I’ve heard these stories my whole life. The ones they tell around firepits during long winter nights. Of cursed bloodlines and dark druids. Of the end of the world coming not from war—but from within.They always felt like stories.Something passed down to keep us sharp. To give meaning to all the training, the secrets, the silence.We were preparing… but none of us ever really believed it would happen.And now… it’s here.“Father,” I ask, my voice quieter than I expect. “Are you sure?”The general doesn’t flinch. His eyes are cold and clear. “Didn’t you ever wonder why Blood Clan’s grown so bold? Why they strike even inside territory lines?”He pauses, letting the silence press against us. “Every pack needs

    Alyssas POV“Where are you going, Alyssa?” the general calls after me. “We haven’t even gotten to Cara.”I stop, my hand on the doorknob. My heart beats hard against my ribs. Fast, angry, and confused.“Please,” he says, quieter now. “Sit down. I promise you… Nothing you say will leave this room.”I hesitate. His voice isn’t as commanding as before. It’s different now—steady but not hard. Like he actually wants to help.I turn slowly and walk back. My steps are slower this time, like I’m wading through water I didn’t realize I’d stepped into.I sit down, the chair creaking beneath me. My spine’s stiff, but I let myself rest into the seat just a little.Zev reaches over, his hand sliding across the space between us. His fingers find mine. Gently. Like he’s asking permission.I don’t pull away.Not now.Not when my chest is full of questions and my throat tastes like smoke.I need him. Just for this.The general leans forward, elbows on his knees. “Tell me about Cara.”“I… I know what I

    Alyssa’s POVThe sun hangs low, casting a golden light over the rooftops of Fenrath. I walk fast, my boots crunching over gravel as I head toward the general’s house. The wind tugs at my hair, cool against my cheeks, but it does nothing to cool the heat inside me.My thoughts are a storm. Cara. The shuck. The truth we buried. I can't ignore it anymore.“Alyssa!”I freeze at the sound of my name. Zev.I don’t turn. I quicken my pace.“Alyssa, please. Stop.”My feet stop before I even decide to. I sigh sharply, shoulders tensing.“What now?” I ask without looking back. My voice is sharp, tired, brittle.“Where are you going?” Zev walks up beside me, his brow furrowed like I’ve personally offended the air around us.“To see your father,” I reply, facing him now. “Or is that a problem?”“No,” he says slowly, his eyes narrowing as if trying to read between the lines. “But… why now?”I cross my arms. “That’s none of your concern, Zev.”His jaw tightens. And then he does it grabs my hand. No

    Alyssa's POVThe air smells like dust and old sweat. The sun hangs high above the training court, beating down on my back like it wants to burn the truth into my skin. I wipe sweat from my forehead and try to focus. My hands tighten around the practice sword, but my mind… it’s far away.Someone is setting up troops to be hunted. The general’s words echo through my head. Not just killed… hunted.But who would do something like that? Someone here… in Fenrath? The thought turns my stomach."Pay attention, Alyssa!"Zev’s voice slices through the air like a whip.I blink and look up. He’s at the far end of the court, glaring at me like I’ve just betrayed him."The tournament’s not a joke," he says, walking toward me. "You could get seriously injured. Even die.""And why do you care, Zev?" I snap. My voice comes out sharp, like broken glass. I still can’t believe I agreed to this. Fighting in a tournament just to earn my right to leave. It’s insane.He stops a few feet away. His eyes burn w

    Alyssas POVI’m walking back to the dorms, the cold night air biting at my cheeks and making me shiver. The moon hangs high in the sky, casting a silvery glow over the path ahead.Life in Fenrath seems fair, but I can feel how uneasy Shadow is within me, a restless energy that makes me hyper-aware of my surroundings.It’s like there’s something in the air, something I can’t quite put my finger on. A sense of unease wraps around me, and I feel as if I’m being watched, almost haunted by unseen eyes.As I step into the shadows of the trees lining the path, I suddenly feel frozen, as if the very air around me has thickened. My heart races, and I can’t move. What’s going on? Panic rises within me, and I scream, “Kira, is that you?”“No,” a deep voice replies, and I turn to see the general stepping out from the woods, his expression unreadable.“What is this?” I snarl at him, my voice trembling with a mix of fear and anger. “What do you want?”“It’s just a test, Alyssa,” the general says, h

    Kiras POVNora’s face is as white as a sheet as she hands Cara a glass of water, her hands trembling slightly. “Drink this,” she says, her voice low and urgent. I can see the worry etched on her features, and it sends a chill down my spine.Cara takes the glass, her hands shaking as she brings it to her lips. She drinks it down quickly, and I watch, my heart racing. Almost immediately, her eyes widen in shock, and then she slumps forward, unconscious.“Oh, I should have known that’s what she did!” Nora exclaims, her voice rising in frustration. She runs a hand through her hair, her expression a mix of anger and fear.“Who?” I ask, my voice barely above a whisper, but I already have a sinking feeling in my gut.“My sister, Astra… She must have followed me,” Nora says, her eyes narrowing as she glances toward the door, as if expecting Astra to burst in at any moment.“Mother, I need you to explain everything to me. Everything!” I scream, my anger boiling over. I can’t believe this is ha

    Kiras POVThe sun hangs low in the sky, casting long shadows across my room as I pace back and forth, my mind racing with thoughts of Alyssa.I feel the weight of the world pressing down on me, and the air is thick with the scent of impending conflict. It isn’t just about the wedding; it is everything. Alyssa is stronger than I ever anticipated, and the thought of her being a potential threat to my plans sends a shiver down my spine.Gwen bursts through the door, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “So, when is the wedding?” she asks, practically bouncing on her toes.I snap, “I don’t know, Gwen.” The words come out sharper than I intend, but I can’t help it. Zev walked out during dinner, leaving me feeling frustrated and confused.“Wait, what?” Gen asks, her brow furrowing in surprise.“You heared me, girls,” I say, trying to keep my voice steady. “Now stop asking questions and help me figure out a way to get rid of Alyssa.” I watch as their faces brighten with smiles, and for a mome

    Zevs POVI’m standing there, watching Alyssa disappear from my sight, her figure growing smaller until the trees swallow her whole. My heart feels like it’s being crushed under the weight of my mistakes.“I’m so sorry, Zev,” Cara says softly beside me, her voice barely above a whisper.“Why are you sorry, Cara?” I reply, frustration bubbling up inside me. “Alyssa is right. I should have told her everything when I had the chance.” My voice is thick with regret, each word a reminder of my failure.“Why didn’t you?” Cara asks, her eyes searching mine for answers.“When, Cara? When I was saving her from Moonborn? Or when we were fighting the Bloodclan?” I snap, my frustration spilling over. I can feel the heat rising in my cheeks, the anger directed at myself.“That’s an excuse, Zev, and you know that,” she counters, her tone firm but gentle.“I know, Cara,” I sigh, running a hand through my hair. “But it was never my intention to fall for her.

    Alyssas PovI’m walking away from the training ground, the sun hanging low in the sky, casting a warm glow over the trees.The air is crisp, filled with the earthy scent of pine and damp soil. My heart is still racing from the day’s exercises, but I can’t help but feel a flicker of hope. It’s not so bad here. Everyone seems welcoming, their laughter echoing in the distance, wrapping around me like a comforting blanket.“Alyssa, what do you think?” Cara’s voice breaks through my thoughts, her excitement bubbling over as she skips beside me. “Fenrath is not as bad as you thought, is it?” she finishes, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm.I shake my head, a sigh escaping my lips. “Cara, it’s not about Fenrath being good or bad. I just want my freedom.” My voice is steady, but the weight of my words hangs heavy in the air. “I don’t want to answer to anyone.”“But you are a werewolf,” Cara insists, her brow furrowing in concern. “We are pack creatures.
