Pain woke Aeris.

Not the old familiar ache. This was sharper,flames racing up his arms, burning deep inside.

He tried to shift but couldn’t.

His arms were pinned down. His legs too.

“What” His voice cracked, rough and weak.

“Don’t struggle.”

Killian’s voice, close. But Aeris couldn’t see him.

He forced his eyes open. The world blurred, then sharpened.

He lay on the dirt amid temple ruins. Glowing marks traced his skin like fiery chains, holding him tight.

“Killian?” Panic rose in his throat. “What’s happening?”

“The marks appeared after you passed out.” Killian knelt beside him, face pale and tired. “They trapped you. I can’t break them.”

Aeris pulled against them. The marks flared brighter. Pain ripped through his chest.

He stopped, gasping.

“I told you,” Killian said. His hand hovered near Aeris’s face, afraid to touch. “Every move makes it worse.”

“Why are they here?”

“Someone triggered them from afar. To wake you. To keep you conscious for what’s next

  • The Omega Who Should Not Exist     CHAPTER 7 — “The Price of Awakening”

    Pain woke Aeris. Not the old familiar ache. This was sharper,flames racing up his arms, burning deep inside. He tried to shift but couldn’t. His arms were pinned down.

  • The Omega Who Should Not Exist    CHAPTER 6 — “When the Power Breaks”

    The room shook. Light burst from Aeris,wild, sharp, out of control. Stone cracked. Walls trembled. Dust fell like rain. “Aeris!” Killian lunged forward. A sudden blast threw him back. He hit a pillar hard, gasping for air. Aeris screamed,a raw, tearing sound that filled the temple like shattered glass. He floated upward, held by pure power. “Make it stop!” Aeris’s voice was strange, layered and distorted. “Please!” Killian pushed to his feet. Blood dripped from a cut on his forehead. “I don’t know how!” Aeris glowed like sunlight breaking through a storm. The bond in Killian’s chest tightened, sharp as bone breaking. He gasped and fell to his knees. He felt the pain too, deep inside. “Aeris, listen!” Killian crawled closer as stones fell around him. “Fight! Take control!” “I can’t!” Aeris cried, tears streaming. “It’s tearing me apart!” The power surged again. Cracks spread across the floor and walls. The temple was falling. Killian pushed through the p

    “We can’t stay here.” Killian helped Aeris to his feet. The hunters lay dead nearby, still and silent. “Where are we going?” Aeris’s legs trembled. The glow under his skin was gone, but he could still feel something waiting inside him. “Somewhere safer. Where the Council’s hunters won’t find us.” Killian wrapped an arm around Aeris’s waist to steady him. “Can you walk?” “I think so.” “Good. We move fast.” They ran through the trees. Aeris was slow, but Killian never left his side or loosened his grip. The bond between them hummed,a steady, second heartbeat. At last, the trees opened into a clearing filled with ruins. Old stone pillars wrapped in vines. Crumbling walls. A broken archway leading nowhere. “What is this place?” Aeris whispered. “An ancient temple. Older than packs, older than territories.” Killian guided him under the arch. “The magic here hides us. It blocks tracking spells.” Inside, it was less ruined. Part of the roof still stood. Moonlight shone

    Suddenly, hands covered Aeris’s mouth before he could scream. He was pulled back, his feet lifting off the ground. “Got him!” a rough voice hissed close to his ear. “Move now!” Aeris fought hard, biting and kicking, but another pair of hands grabbed his legs. They dragged him through the doorway and into the dark night. “Stop struggling,” a voice sneered. “You’re only making it worse.” He was thrown onto the ground. Stones dug into his back. Roots scraped his skin. The hand over his mouth squeezed tighter. Where was Killian? Was their bond broken? Was Killian even alive? “Hurry!” a third voice called from the trees. “The Alpha will know soon.” “Let him know. We’ll be long gone before that.” They ran through the woods. Thorns scratched Aeris’s arms. Branches whipped his face. His shirt tore. Fresh blood bloomed on his skin. Finally, they stopped and dumped him hard on the earth. Above him stood three dark shapes in the moonlight. Wolves. But not from his old pac

    Aeris woke with a sharp gasp. Softness surrounded him,a real bed, warm blankets. The air smelled fresh, like pine and wood smoke. This wasn’t the cold shed anymore. He sat up quickly. His heart beat fast. “Don’t move.” The voice came from the shadows, low and firm. Killian stepped into the light by the window. He looked taller, stronger here. His eyes still glowed with that strange light. “Where am I?” Aeris’s voice was rough. “My safehouse, deep in my land.” Aeris looked around. Stone walls, fire crackling in a hearth, animal skins on the walls. This was a strong man’s home. “How long was I out?” “Six hours.” Killian came closer, slow and careful. “You collapsed. You were nearly dead.” Six hours. Aeris touched his face. The swelling was gone. His lip was healed. “You healed me.” “Not me. The bond did.” That impossible bond. “You should hate me,” Aeris said softly. “You don’t want someone like me.” “Don’t tell me what I want.” “I’m cursed. I bring r

    Aeris nearly couldn’t breathe. His chest burned with each breath. The dark trees reached for him, branches slicing his skin, roots trying to trip him. He fell hard onto the cold ground. Tried to get up. Fell again. Blood dripped from his cuts, leaving a red trail on the dirt. “Keep going,” he whispered, voice low. But his legs gave out. He crashed face-first into the earth. He tried to push himself up, but his arms wouldn’t move. Maybe this was the end. Alone, far from his pack, dying in the woods. Maybe it was better like this. No one would spit on his body here. His sight blurred. The pain faded, replaced by the cold heaviness. And then he felt it. A huge presence, close. The air around him thickened. Heavy footsteps, slow and strong, moved toward him. A shape moved through the trees,too big for a man, but too smooth for an animal. The shadow stopped. A man stepped into the clearing. Not just a man. Power flowed from him like heat from a fire. It pres
