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

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter49: Through the Darkness

    Alyssa's POVNight falls like a heavy curtain.The sky stretches wide above me, black velvet pierced with cold, distant stars. The air bites at my skin. Each breath I take feels sharp, like it’s trying to cut its way out of my chest. The fire crackles in the distance, and I hear the others talking, low at first... until Cara’s voice slices through the night like a blade.“You need to fix this, Zev,” she snaps, loud and angry. “Or we might as well just forfeit the tournament!”Her voice makes me flinch.I don’t turn to look—I already know what I’ll see. Cain and Abel probably trying to stay out of it, their heads ducked, eyes low. Cara pacing or throwing her hands around, frustration thick in the air like smoke. And Zev… silent. Still. The way he always is when he’s deciding if he’s going to explode or walk away.But then I hear footsteps behind me.Soft, measured.“Alyssa.”Zev’s voice is calm. Too calm. That kind of calm that means he’s holding something back.“Cara’s right,” he says

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 48: Lost trust

    Zev’s POVMy eyes stay forward, locked on the treeline, but I don't see it. Not really.I hear Alpha Elric’s voice somewhere behind me, low and steady like it always is when he’s trying to keep everyone calm.But it’s just noise now. A hum in the background. I can't hold onto his words. I can't hold onto anything.Because inside me, a war’s already started.Will you really marry her? my wolf hums, voice curling with disappointment. After everything?“Not now,” I whisper beneath my breath, jaw clenched so tight it hurts.The horn goes off.The race begins.Like startled deer, the groups burst forward, scattering into different paths like veins through the forest. The air fills with the sound of footsteps and adrenaline and rushing blood. But I only see her.Alyssa.Already off the ground like wind-born flame, leaving behind nothing but the fading scent of citrus and soap. It stings. That smell—hers—still stuck in my chest.“Zev, what was that?” Cara gasps beside me as we begin our spri

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 47 Truth hurts

    Kira’s POVI stare at my mother like she’s grown a second head.Alpha Conan? My father?No. No, that can’t be right. She’s lying. She’s doing it again—twisting things just to keep me in line.“You need to explain yourself!” I scream, my voice raw with disbelief. “You don’t just throw something like that at me and act like it’s nothing!”She doesn’t flinch. Of course she doesn’t. Nora always acts like she has everything under control.Conan stays silent. His lips are pressed in a firm line, eyes hard as stone. He looks at me, but doesn’t say a word.“Well?!” I yell at him, furious tears stinging my eyes. “Don’t you want to say something? Anything?”Before either of them can respond, a loud, deep horn echoes across the camp.No. Not now.The tournament.I glance toward the sound. My heart pounds—not from nerves, but from rage. Rage and confusion, twisting inside me like barbed wire.“You have some explaining to do,” I snap, backing away from them. “And you’d better believe I’m coming ba

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 46: The taste of Victory

    Kira’s POVI feel like I’m floating.The air is thick with anticipation, but all I can taste is victory. All around me, the arena buzzes with energy—warriors stretching, sharpening weapons, whispering strategies—but I barely hear any of it.Because today… everything starts falling into place.I smooth a hand over my braid and smile to myself. The uniform I wore to training is tighter than usual, hugging my waist like a promise. My boots click neatly on the stone as I move. Today, I will show them all—the council, the pack, and her—why I Hulen will be mine. Why I’ve always belonged.And then I see him.Zev, walking toward me with that intense, focused look of his. Strong. Handsome. Angry. Perfect.I tilt my head, my smile blooming wider. He doesn’t know it yet, but I’m already winning. The moment he came to me—not to Alyssa—I won.“Zev,” I purr sweetly, flipping my hair over my shoulder, making sure it catches the light just right. “What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be getting you

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 45: The Price

    Alyssa's POVI stand slowly, pressing a hand to my ribs. The pain bites through me like broken glass, sharp and deep. Every breath is a reminder of Kira’s rage. But I cannot let her win or push me down.I check the straps on my boots, tighten the buckles on my bracers, and feel the comforting weight of the twin daggers at my hips. I run a finger along the edge of my curved blade—clean, sharp, ready. Just like me. My body aches, but my mind is steady. This tournament means everything.Footsteps echo down the corridor—fast, urgent. I don’t need to turn to know who it is.“Alyssa! Are you sure you still want to do this?” Cara’s voice is tight with concern.I glance back at her, lifting my chin even though it hurts to do so. “I am, Cara. You should be excited. If we win this, you get to join the Beta Squad.”She shifts her weight, her brows furrowed. “I know that, Alyssa. But what do you get?”I pause.I lower my voice, not sure I even want her to hear it. “My freedom.”It slips from my

    Kira's POVI run.Fast. Quiet. Head down. I hope no one saw me. I hope no one followed.What the hell was that?I keep moving through the trees, away from the clearing, away from the screams. The sounds are still ringing in my ears. Her scream. Their screams. That horrible howl.I can’t get it out of my head.I trip once and catch myself. My legs are shaking, but I don’t stop.Everything I thought I knew—everything I believed about her—it’s all wrong. Alyssa isn’t just some omega. She’s not weak. She’s not broken. She’s something else.And no matter how strong I get, how much power I gain... it will never be enough to match that.She shifted. Shifted. Into a full wolf. While injured. While we were still beating her down.And when she changed—Gods—I’ve never seen anything like it.I rush into the Moonborn camp, dodging warriors rushing toward the chaos I just left behind. No one notices me slip away from the crowd. Good.I head straight for Alpha Conan’s tent. I throw the flap open and

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 43:The Wolf

    Alyssa’s POVPain slams into me like a falling mountain.It starts in my chest, spreads like fire down my arms, into my legs, until every bone inside me begins to twist, stretch, and snap. I curl in the dirt, clutching my sides. My mouth opens, but no sound comes out. Just air. Just pain.What is happening to me?! I want to scream it, but even my voice has abandoned me.Then she speaks.“Alyssa,” Shadow growls from somewhere deep inside me, her voice cold and raw like a winter storm, “we almost died. I took over. I’m going to kill all of them.”No—no, Shadow, don’t…I try to speak again. Try to scream. Beg. Anything.“Don’t, Shadow,” I finally whisper in my mind. “Please don’t kill anyone. Just… send a message.”But I can only watch.I’m not in control anymore.My body—our body—moves on its own. Stronger. Faster. Wilder. The world blurs as Shadow takes over completely, and I see through her eyes like I’m trapped behind a window in my own skin. The clearing opens wide before us. The tr

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 42: Lamb to the Slaughter

    Kiras PovThe air crackles around me.The trees stand tall and silent, like they're holding their breath for what’s about to happen. My heart races, but not with fear—with pure excitement.Finally, I get to end this little fairytale Alyssa’s been clinging to. No more sympathy. No more second chances. Just the truth.She’s nothing.The few soldiers Alpha Conan gave me wait nearby, crouched in the trees, their armor hidden by dark cloaks. Gwen stands to my right, Gen to my left. My most trusted blades. My wolves in waiting.I turn to them, keeping my voice low but firm. “Is the plan clear?”“It is,” one of the Moonborn soldiers answers quickly, eyes gleaming with eagerness. “And thank you for this opportunity to take down that traitor.”I nod. “Good. Then go. Now.”They vanish into the trees, swift and silent. The trap is set.I stay still, my body buzzing. I don’t need to move yet. She’ll come. She always walks straight into whatever mess her pride drags her into.And then, there.The

  • The Omega Rises: The Alphas True Born   Chapter 41 Take down

    Kira’s POV,The stone beneath my boots echoes with each step. I pace the corridor like a caged animal, fury burning in my chest.Nora was right. Everything she said—it’s happening. Slowly, yes. But surely. The web is tightening. And Cara? The perfect little thread, dangling right where I need her. The girl barely knows she’s being used.Pathetic.I hear footsteps—fast, uneven. I turn sharply.Cara.She stops in front of me, breathless, her eyes wide like she’s run all the way here.“Why are you here, Cara?” I snap. “Don’t just stand there like a frightened rabbit. Speak.”“I—” she swallows, “I don’t think your plan is working, Kira.”I narrow my eyes. “What do you mean?” My voice comes out colder than I intend. But I don’t care. I’m tired of excuses.“I just saw them.” Cara sucks in a breath. “Zev and Alyssa.”My heart skips. My nails dig into my palm.“What. About. Them.”“They were—kissing,” she says. “Outside. In the open. I don’t think she was even upset when I told her about the
