The heavy oak doors of the dining hall creaked open with a soft groan as Alpha Eugene stepped inside, his broad shoulders casting a long shadow under the flickering chandelier light.

The scent of roasted venison, baked potatoes, and garlic-seasoned greens filled the air, but he barely registered the aroma.

His mind was elsewhere—busy and preoccupied.

At the long table in the center of the grand room, dishes had already been arranged with meticulous care.

Silverware gleamed under the golden g

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Warnings

    Kaelyn stared angrily at Jack, ready to reply him when a guard came up to him then he walked away so she she stood frozen in the middle of the hallway long after Jack's footsteps had disappeared.Her entire body trembled from anger and hurt.Her fingers curled into fists.How dare he speak to her like that?She was the mother of Eugene's child, the mother of the future heir, yet lately it seemed everyone in Blackwood Mansion had forgotten that.Mira looked at her with suspicion, Becca looked at her with anger, Max barely tolerated her and now Jack had openly insulted her.Kaelyn blinked rapidly, fighting back tears."No, this is their fault" she muttered. She shook her head, her voice was barely above a whisper.Immediately her thoughts went toward the same people they always seemed to.Becca and Mira were the lead ib the conspiracy theories she formed in her head.Who else could it be?Who else would poison people against her? Certainly not Eugene.He had never spoken to her this wa

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Convincing Performance

    The garden had become a crime scene. The dead rogue leader remained sprawled where the guards had dropped him and a few feet away lay the body of the unfortunate guard who had collapsed after touching the corpse.The sight was enough to make every wolf present uneasy and at the center of it all stood Desmond, his expression carefully controlled.However, inside his mind was racing.This is bad, very bad. Perhaps the worst position he had found himself in since Eugene defeated him.Eugene was looking at him suspiciously and that was bad for him.The problem was that Eugene was not stupid. He could be emotional, impulsive, stubborn but he was not stupid and if Eugene truly started suspecting him, everything would become much more difficult.The plans, the manipulations, the slow destruction of Eugene's reign all depended on his freedom to move around the mansion, influence people and act without constant supervision.If Eugene became convinced Desmond was responsible for this poison, th

    Kaelyn’s eyes fluttered open slowly.For a moment, she lay still, expecting to feel Eugene’s presence beside her, his steady voice, his warmth, the reassuring weight of his attention.But there was nothing, only the faint scent of herbs and silence.Her brows tightened. She turned her head slightly to see an empty chair, just the healer moving quietly across the room, organizing fresh bandages.Kaelyn pushed herself up slightly.“Alpha Eugene?" She called out softly to him.The healer turned immediately.“You should not be moving yet.”Kaelyn ignored her.“He was here, wasn’t he?”The healer hesitated.“Yes… earlier.”Kaelyn’s expression darkened.“Where did he go?”The healer sighed.“Alpha Eugene had urgent matters to attend to" she replied. Kaelyn’s fingers curled slightly into the sheets.“Becca" she muttered angrily. The healer frowned.“You should not be thinking about that right now. You fainted—”“I’m fine" her voice cut through the room.She swung her legs off the bed and t

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    The Poison in the Silence

    Eugene stood a few steps away, his eyes fixed on the corpse with a sharp, unreadable focus. Behind him, Max remained still, alert, watching everything.Eugene took one slow step forward then another. His gaze narrowed slightly as he studied the body more closely.There were no signs of movement and no signs of breathing, just stillness.Max leaned slightly forward.“Eugenw" he called put but he didn’t answer immediately.His instincts were screaming. Something about this felt off.Desmond, standing a few steps behind them, watched carefully. His expression was calm but Inside, however, he was counting.Just a little closer, that was all Eugene needed. Just enough to inhale the poison thathad been carefully released into the air around the body.Desmond’s eyes flickered slightly as he watched Eugene lean in just a fraction more.Yes, that was it.Then Eugene stopped and Desmond’s smile almost faded. He straightened slightly then turned his head slightly toward Max.“Call the guards" he

    The moment Seraphina stepped fully into Becca's room, the atmosphere changed. It was as if someone had poured fuel onto a fire.Seraphina looked completely unbothered. She closed the door behind herself with deliberate calm before turning to face them.A faint smile rested on her lips but it was not friendly which only made Becca angrier."Leave" she ordered, her voice cold.Seraphina raised an eyebrow."How welcoming" she replied. "I said leave.""And I heard you but I chose not to listen" Seraphina said casually as she examined her fingernails.Mira let out a humorless laugh."Funny. I don't remember giving you permission to enter" she shot at her.Seraphina finally looked at her."My mistake."Her tone made it obvious she didn't think it was a mistake at all.Mira's eyes narrowed. Becca could practically feel her patience disappearing."What do you want?" Becca asked.Seraphina tilted her head."Nothing.""You're lying" Mira said immediately. Seraphina sighed dramatically."There

    The healer's chambers had grown painfully quiet and thinking was the last thing Eugene needed right now.He sat beside Kaelyn's bed, his elbows resting on his knees as he stared at the floor.His hand moved to his forehead. A headache was beginning to form again.Everything seemed to be collapsing at once and somehow he was expected to hold it all together.Eugene let out a long breath."What a mess" he murmured. His voice was barely audible.Across the room, the healer was quietly organizing herbs then she glanced toward him."You should get some rest" she said.Eugene laughed humorlessly."Rest?"The healer nodded."You look exhausted.""I am exhausted" he replied. The healer sighed."Then rest" she urged.Eugene shook his head."I can't" he said.Every time he closed his eyes he saw Becca, the hurt in her expression and the disappointment. He could practically see the distance growing between them and it was eating him alive.Suddenly, the doors opened and Max entered quickly, hi

    Eugene snapped, not the slow, simmering fury that had been burning in his chest since Desmond’s laughter echoed across the resistance hideout, but a violent, instinctive break, the kind that came from a wolf pushed beyond restraint.The soldiers holding him barely had time to react.One moment, the

    The first scream cut through the strategy chamber like a blade.Eugene’s head snapped up instantly, his instincts roaring before his mind could catch up.“That wasn’t from the outer tunnels,” Dorian said sharply. “That was inside.”Robin swore under his breath. Sax straightened from the map table,

    Jack stood in his chambers, sleeves rolled slightly, preparing for what should have been an ordinary evening by Blackwood standards but tonight, the walls felt thinner.Outside his window, too many torches moved.

    At the heart of the mansion, behind thick doors, Desmond had not left his study for long time and the room looked like the aftermath of a storm.Scrolls lay scattered across the massive desk and the floor beside it were maps marked with red ink, troop movements sketched and resketched, weak points
