The infirmary door creaked open with a reluctant groan as Mira pushed it, her fingers trembling slightly from the combination of frustration and exhaustion.

The sterile scent of antiseptic stung her nose, and the soft fluorescent lights hummed above, washing the room in a dull, lifeless glow.

Becca stormed in behind her, her shoes sounding furiously on the polished floor as if she wanted every step to echo her rage.

"Can you believe him?" Becca spat. “Who does Eugene think he is? Telling me if I don’t eat with him, then I don’t eat at all? What kind of manipulative, arrogant, insecure, tyrannical—"

"Becca," Mira said gently, though her voice wavered from the pressure mounting in her chest. "I know. I heard him."

Becca’s fists clenched at her sides.

Her long long swished as she paced, her brows drawn tightly together.

“I can’t stand him. He thinks he can control me just because of who he is. Well, guess what? I’m not his damn possession. I’m not some little pet who’s going to beg

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    The Wolves of the Cliffs

    Kaelyn’s legs trembled as she stood behind Alpha Eugene, her breaths shallow as the darkened forest seemed to press in around them. This situation was one she never thought she would never have to experience but the rogue wolves around her only made the reality hit harder.Moonlight fell in through the long branches and leaves of the surrounding trees, illuminating the gleam of Eugene’s silver fur as he allowed himself only shift a part of his body into his wolf form, standing protectively in front of Kaelyn. His muscles were tense, his eyes burning with lethal determination to protect Kaelyn and stop any attack that would be directed to both of them.Three rogue wolves crouched in a semicircle before them, their viscous teeth bared, their eyes flicking between Kaelyn and Eugene like hungry predators. Behind them stood a fourth wolf — taller, more powerful, with ragged fur and a single scar slicing across his face from brow to chin. Judging from his powerful stance and demenor, he

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Echoes of Midnight

    Kyra’s sobs had finally quieted to gentle hiccups, her face red and puffy from hours of crying. She stared vacantly at the wooden floorboards, her small hands fidgeting with the frayed edge of the blanket. Her eyes were swollen, her lashes stuck together with tears that still glistened in the dim lamplight.Becca reached out and tucked a stray lock of Kyra’s hair behind her ear, her voice soft but firm. “Kyra, sweetheart, you should go to bed now. You’ve been up for hours. Rest will do you good.”Kyra looked up sharply, her eyes glinting with fresh fear. “No, Lady Becca. I can’t. What if something happened to Kaelyn? What if… what if she’s hurt? What if she’s all alone?”Mira, sitting cross-legged beside them, placed a gentle hand on Kyra’s knee. “Kyra, Kaelyn is not alone. If she’s with Alpha Eugene, then she’s safer than anyone else in this pack right now. You know how strong he is.”“But what if they’re not together?” Kyra’s voice cracked, desperation raw in every word. “What

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Figures in the Woods

    A throbbing pain pulsed through Alpha Eugene’s skull as consciousness slowly returned to him. The damp scent of moss and earth filled his nostrils, sharp and cold in the night air. His eyes fluttered open to find himself lying on a bed of leaves, darkness draped heavily over the woods like a suffocating blanket. His heart pounded as memories slowly came back.He remembered flashes of the sudden fog that had curled around him and Kaelyn like ghostly fingers, the way his vision had gone black without warning. He immediately sat upright, wincing at the stiffness in his muscles.Kaelyn lay beside him, her chest rising and falling gently, her hair tangled across her pale face. Just beyond her, Helios—his massive black warhorse—lay unmoving, legs tucked awkwardly under his body.“What… what in the Goddess’ name happened?” Eugene muttered under his breath, raking a hand through his damp hair. He scanned the shadows around them. The forest was eerily silent except for the occasional rus

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Sounds in the Night

    Luna Seraphina’s eyes snapped open, fury flashing in their emerald depths as the echoes in the mansion grew louder. She sat up, her hair falling in perfect waves over her shoulders despite having been asleep moments ago.“What in the name of the Goddess is this racket?” she hissed, her voice low and venomous. “I swear, if this house doesn’t shut up right now, I’ll have every single one of them flogged for disturbing my beauty sleep.”Beside her, Desmond’s eyes fluttered open, his own expression a mask of annoyance. “It’s like they’ve forgotten who lives here,” he muttered. He slipped out of bed, his feet gliding over the polished wood as he walked towards the tall, arched windows. He pulled the velvet drapes aside and gasped softly. Below, a sea of guards swarmed the courtyard, moving with tense purpose as torches and lanterns flickered in the darkness.He turned back to Seraphina, who was now standing, arms crossed. They came outside the room and met with Ava.“There must be so

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    The Night Stirs

    The sun had long dipped below the horizon, and the forest that surrounded the estate had transformed to a looming silhouette of shadows and soundless trees. Kyra paced the length of Kaelyn's chambers, her hands wringing together, her brows furrowed deep with worry. She glanced again toward the window, watching the darkness press against the glass."Where are you, Kaelyn?" she whispered.The room was dim, lit only by the soft flicker of a lantern. Kaelyn's bed was untouched. Her cloak still missing. The basket she often used for gathering plants had not been returned.Kyra had begged her."Let me come with you," she had pleaded earlier that day. "You shouldn’t go alone."Kaelyn had only smiled, gently brushing Kyra's cheek with affectionate fingers."I’ll be fine. Besides, I need the quiet."But now it was nearing midnight, and the quiet was deafening.Unable to stand the silence any longer, Kyra threw a shawl over her shoulders and hurried out of the room. Her soft leather shoes s

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Whispers in the Mist

    Eugene stood on the stone path outside the stables, the sound of his boots crunching underfoot as a stablehand approached, leading his black horse by the reins."Your horse is ready, Alpha," the stablehand said with a bow.Eugene gave a soft nod, his expression calm, but there was a flicker of anticipation in his eyes. He patted the horse's strong neck. "Good boy, Helios."Just as he was about to mount, two of his guards stepped forward from their post by the stable gates."Alpha, shall we accompany you? The woods can be unpredictable."Eugene placed a boot into the stirrup and swung himself onto Helios' back with practiced ease. He pulled on his riding gloves, his eyes drifting toward the treeline beyond the estate."I appreciate the concern, but no. I want to ride alone. Just for a while."The guards hesitated. One opened his mouth to object but was silenced by the calm firmness in Eugene's voice."I need air. No shadows trailing behind me today."Before they could protest again,
