The sacred grounds was no longer a place of combat. It had become a place of chaos.

Dust still hung in the air from the last, devastating clash, but all eyes were on the two motionless figures in the center.

Alpha Eugene lay slumped, his breathing shallow, a streak of blood soaking the right side of his cloth.

Alpha Desmond was sprawled several feet away, unconscious from the bone-cracking blow Eugene had delivered.

The tension that had ruled the arena during the duel had broken—now replac

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    A Warning in the Hallway

    Becca was still sitting on the edge of the bed when she heard a knock at the door. The sound pulled her away from her increasingly frustrating thoughts.She immediately stood, perhaps a little too quickly because she nearly tripped over the edge of her dress."Wonderful," she muttered.Her evening was clearly going perfectly.The knock came again, more impatient this time and Becca already knew who it was.Only one person knocked like that.She crossed the room and opened the door and Mira immediately stepped inside then stopped.Her eyes narrowed suspiciously and Becca instantly regretted opening the door. Mira was looking at her the way a hunter looked at prey."What?"Mira folded her arms."What happened?" She asked.Becca frowned."Nothing happened" she replied. "Hmm."The response was entirely too knowing then Becca sighed."Mira.""You look strange.""I do not.""You do" she insisted. Becca walked past her."I don't know what you mean" she said.The two women stared at each ot

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    A Dangerous Distraction

    The bathroom door finally opened and warm steam drifted into the room as Becca stepped out, feeling considerably fresher than she had earlier.The bath had helped but it was not enough to erase her frustration or even enough to make her forgive Eugene.But enough to calm some of the anger that had been simmering inside her all day.Her damp hair cascaded over her shoulders, and she rubbed it gently with a towel as she walked back into the room.She stopped immediately. Eugene was no longer wearing the towel.Thankfully.Instead, he was fully dressed. The dark outfit he wore fit him perfectly, emphasizing the authority that seemed to surround him even when he wasn't trying.He stood near a mirror adjusting the cuffs of his sleeves.For a moment, Becca simply watched him then she quickly looked away. She was still very angry and she reminded herself of that fact immediately.Eugene noticed her emerge from the bathroom and turned. His gaze lingered for a second but it was long enough to

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Stepping Up the Game

    The atmosphere inside Kaelyn's chambers was far from peaceful. The room, usually elegant and calming, had become a reflection of Kaelyn's mood.Several wine bottles sat open on a nearby table, one glass had already been emptied, another was currently in Kaelyn's hand.The young woman sat near the fireplace, her cheeks slightly flushed from drinking. Her son slept peacefully in a cradle nearby, completely unaware of the storm surrounding his mother.Ava stood close to the window, watching her then a knock suddenly sounded on the door.Ava immediately turned but Kaelyn barely reacted. She simply took another sip of wine."Come in" she said.The door opened and Ava immediately sighed in relief."Luna Seraphina" she called happily. Seraphina stepped inside with a scowl. The moment Ava saw her, genuine relief crossed her face."Thank the Moon Goddess."Seraphina frowned."What?""We thought something happened to you" she said.Kaelyn slowly looked up, her eyes slightly glassy from the alc

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Tough Distractions

    By the time Becca and Mira arrived at Eugene's chambers, the sun had already begun its slow descent across the horizon.The mansion had finally grown quieter after the chaos of the coronation, at least quieter than usual.Becca was exhausted, emotionally. Everything that had happened since the coronation felt like a blur and finally the discovery that Eugene had moved every single one of her belongings into his room without asking was just the worse.She still couldn't believe it.Mira pushed open the door first. The room beyond was spacious and elegant, fitting for an Alpha King.Large windows overlooked the estate, a massive fireplace sat against one wall, dark wooden furniture occupied the room and scattered around were boxes and personal belongings that had once belonged to Becca.Seeing them here irritated her all over again."Unbelievable" she muttered. Mira snorted."I agree."Becca walked inside slowly. Her eyes scanned the room then she froze."He's not here" she said as rel

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    No Other Choice

    Becca was furious.The entire walk back to her room had been filled with angry muttering, clenched fists, and several moments where Mira was certain she was about to march straight back to Eugene and start another argument.The corridor seemed unusually quiet as Becca and Mira approached her chambers. Neither woman spoke for several moments.The tension from the confrontation with Eugene still lingered heavily between them.Finally, Mira sighed."I still can't believe he did that" she said.Becca let out a sharp laugh."Oh, I can."They reached the door and Becca immediately pushed it open then froze. Mira froze beside her as silence filled the room.The room was practically empty.The wardrobe doors stood open, nothing remained inside. The shelves were bare, the vanity table that usually held Becca's personal items had been cleared, the decorative blankets she loved were gone and the books she had spent weeks collecting were gone.Only the bed remained, perfectly made, as though some

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    A Decision Already Made

    Boxes continued moving past as servants hurried toward Alpha King Eugene's chambers. Some carried folded dresses, others carried books, jewelry cases, blankets, and personal belongings.Every single box felt like an insult to Kaelyn and every single box was making Becca angrier by the second.Mira stood beside Becca with her arms folded tightly across her chest. She was equally irritated.The moment Becca and Mira approached, Kaelyn stepped directly into their path."Stop."Becca immediately sighed."Not today."Kaelyn ignored her. Her eyes remained fixed on the boxes being carried away then back to Becca."What is going on?" She demanded. Becca already knew where this was heading and she rubbed her forehead."Kaelyn—""No, I want an answer" she cut her off.Mira rolled her eyes."Then perhaps ask the person who ordered it."Kaelyn immediately turned toward her."I wasn't talking to you" she retorted. Becca sighed."I honestly don't know why Eugene is doing this" she said.Kaelyn na

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Cracks in the walls

    The morning sun barely filtered through the frosted glass windows of the Blackwood estate’s east wing bathroom, but inside, the atmosphere was anything but calm.Crash!A porcelain jar shattered against the marble wall, spraying shards like raindrops across the pale floor.

    Becca stepped into the courtyard outside the infirmary, the morning sun just peeking above the treetops, spilling pale gold across the clearing. She stood there for a moment, the cool air nipping at her cheeks, letting it seep into her lungs like a balm. But even the freshness of morning couldn’t

    The afternoon sun shimmered off the surface of the pool, dancing in ripples against the white marble tiles that surrounded the grand courtyard of the mansion. The air was warm, but a gentle breeze carried with it the faint scent of pine from the forest beyond the estate’s high walls. Kaelyn sat a

    The air was colder than usual.Jack stood motionless, his boots rooted to the marble floor of the east corridor, his hands clenched tightly into fists at his sides. Lila was dead.Sixteen years old, soft-spoken maid with doe eyes and nervous hands. She was barely seen, always trying to blend into
