Jett’s eyes weren’t his own anymore.

They glowed red and hungry as he stared at my bleeding hand. His body was tense, shaking, like he was fighting something deep inside him. Something dark.

Before I could say a word, Talon shoved him hard, sending him crashing into the side of the tent.

“Jett, back off!” Talon growled, standing protectively in front of me.

Jett blinked like he’d just woken from a dream. He looked down at his hands, breathing fast. “I—I didn’t mean to…” His voice cracked. “Her blood,"

My blood?

My heart beat faster as I stared at the thin cut on my palm. It wasn’t even that deep, but it felt like the whole world had changed because of it. I was bleeding too much for just a small cut.

“What’s happening to me?” I whispered, stepping back. My knees brushed the chair, and my blood continued dripping down to the ground.

Talon turned to me, his face tight. He looked scared for me.

"Her blood....I can't control it." Jett said, his eyes turning dark red.

  • The Overweight Omega and Her Three Knights    The Best friend's Knife

    AURELIA The cool night's air blazed against my skin as I stood staring at Steele. His bulging arms flexed as he dug the ground. I stared at Chloe, her body limp as she stayed unconscious. I crossed my arms, my nails digging into my skin. Steele worked in silence, his strength slicing through the earth with every strike, but my eyes never left Chloe. She had no idea. No idea that the person she called her best friend, the one she trusted was the same person who wanted her gone more than anyone else. " When will you be done, Steele?" I hissed, my temper flaring as I looked around. "What if she wakes up?" “Do you want to help?” Steele paused, staring at me. “Cause all I can see is you b***hing at me instead of helping me dig so we can be faster.” My lips curved into a cold smile. “You know I don’t get my hands dirty.” I turned back to Chloe. Her face looked so peaceful, like she was sleeping. She didn’t deserve peace. Not after everything I had lost. Not after Talon ripped m

  • The Overweight Omega and Her Three Knights    Chains of Betrayal

    The echo mocked me as it rolled back, empty and hollow. No answer. No footsteps. Just the sharp sting of silver biting deeper into my wrists every time I struggled. My chest heaved as I tried to steady my breathing. First, it was the witches. Then the sirens. Now, someone from my own race. An Alpha. Each enemy wanted my blood and the sire bond that came with it. But how did he find me this time? I tugged again, jerking my arms in opposite directions. The chains rattled against the stone floor, but my hands were too weak, my skin too raw. Every pull only sent another streak of pain burning through me. "Pathetic," a deep voice finally cut through the silence. My heart leapt. I jerked my head up, and there he was. The man stepped into the room as if he had been standing there all along, watching me. He was tall, broad shouldered and older. His aura made my wolf growl as he stared at me, bound and vulnerable. "You can stop wasting your strength," he said, his tone calm but e

  • The Overweight Omega and Her Three Knights    Kidnapped at the Theatre

    Steele's shoulder clamped around mine as he wrapped his jacket around me. He was being a gentleman and I could see it. Every move he made was done with practiced charm, probably from experience of his ex girlfriends. The theater lights dimmed, washing everything in soft shadows but even then, I could feel his eyes lingering on me instead of the screen. My wolf stirred beneath my skin, restless. Her pacing heartbeat throbbed in my chest, louder than the surround sound of the movie. Every time Steele leaned closer, my body stiffened, like something deep inside me wanted to push him away. “You’re cold,” he whispered, adjusting the jacket tighter around me. “I’m fine,” I muttered, forcing a small smile. My fingers dug into the popcorn tub between us, pretending to care about the buttery kernels instead of the way my insides twisted. Steele chuckled softly, his arm brushing against mine. “You don’t always have to act tough, Chloe. At least when you're with me." His words should

  • The Overweight Omega and Her Three Knights    The Cursed Half-Lie

    TALON "What? Candace is dead?" I shot up to my feet. One of Candace's coven members, Jamel had come with the news. Candace who had been fine just a few days ago had suddenly turned up dead out of the ordinary. No physical bites, no injuries. "Has your coven gotten into any trouble lately?" Kael asked, "Has everyone been chasing you?" Jamel shook his head quickly, his eyes wide and nervous. “No… nothing like that. We’ve kept to ourselves. No fights, no spells gone wrong. She just collapsed. When we found her, it was already too late.” His voice cracked at the end, and I could feel the weight of his grief pressing against the room. Kael and Jett exchanged a look. That silent kind of look that said this isn’t normal. A chill crawled up my spine. Candace wasn’t weak for a witch. She wasn’t careless either. For her to die without a mark, without a single sign, something darker was at play here. “Where is she now?” I asked, my voice sharper than I intended. “At a house n

  • The Overweight Omega and Her Three Knights    Aurelia's Return (2)

    CHLOE Walking into the Academy felt different with Aurelia beside me. Heads turned the moment we stepped through the front doors. Whispers rose and fell like waves, curious eyes flicking toward the girl at my side. To them, she was just a stranger. Tall, striking, the kind of beautiful that made people stop mid-step. Her hair caught the morning light, her features sharp and almost too perfect, like she’d stepped out of a painting. I wanted to smile and shout, She’s mine. She’s my best friend. But I couldn’t. They weren’t supposed to know. “Who’s the new girl?” someone muttered behind us. “Transfer student?” another guessed. “Wow… she’s gorgeous.” Aurelia’s lips curved into a small smile, her chin lifting just enough to make it look like she’d expected the attention. My hand wrapped around her as we walked into class. Peyton was rubbing something on my seat when I arrived. The moment she saw me, she squabbled away like a mice running away. " She hasn't changed a single

  • The Overweight Omega and Her Three Knights    Aurelia's Return

    TALON The ritual started. Candace and the others linked arms, their eyes closed as they began to whisper. Their voices bended together as their hands glimmered with magic. "Ad astra… revenire… per sanguinem… per vinculum…" My chest tightened as the ground beneath us pulsed, a faint vibration that made the sand tremble under my knees. The sky shifted. Clouds gathered where only moments ago the sunset had just been. Lightning thundered in the sky as if it was a warning. Forbidden spells always had consequences. But I didn’t stop. I couldn’t. Chloe’s face flashed in my mind. She didn’t trust us the way she trusted us the way she did back then. Not yet. But if I brought Aurelia back, if I made her see I would go to any lengths for her, maybe things could change. Maybe she would look at me like I was worth something again. The coven’s chant grew louder. "Sanguis… anima… redde quod perditum est…" The ocean roared, waves slamming hard against the shore. Cold air blew h
