Lucy.“Please, I do not know what harm had befallen them. You have to let me go and find them,” I pleaded, my voice trembling from the panic and desperation choking me.The guard stood unmoved outside the iron-barred door of my makeshift cell, arms folded across his chest like a damn statue. His jaw clenched, eyes cold.“Over my dead body will I allow such a thing,” he said, finality ringing in his voice.“But they could be dying out there!” I stepped forward, gripping the cold bars. “I can't just sit here while Nolan and Arielle are missing. What if they’re—” I broke off, unable to finish the sentence. My voice cracked, emotion swelling too hard in my throat.He looked at me for a long, tense moment. I could see the flicker of hesitation behind his stern expression. I was throwing everything into my eyes—every ounce of fear, grief, and raw need to act."Please," I whispered again, this time lower, but so much heavier.A long sigh escaped his lips. Then he cursed under his breath and

Aurora.Kaidan leaned against the doorway, his thumbs tucked casually into the loops of his shorts. His grin stretched wide, his teeth almost unnaturally white.I was visibly trembling. Though the room was large, the air between us felt dense, as if the walls had suddenly drawn closer. A strange, electric silence fell over us—private, too private—and unsettling.In that instant, I forgot why I had planned to confront him. I forgot to demand answers. I only wanted to run.Why wasn’t he wearing a shirt? What if someone had seen him walking into my room like this?It was nearly impossible to focus on anything with him standing there, half-dressed, skin still glistening with moisture. My eyes dropped unwillingly to the pale threads of his shorts, to what they struggled to conceal. His presence—his lack of shame—was outrageous.Kaidan’s smile slowly faded, his expression shifting into something taut and unreadable. He stepped forward with a low curse. “I can’t stop thinking about you,” he

LucyTime seemed to crawl.Everything around me was a blur of agony and disorientation. My body throbbed with pain, and a sharp, relentless ache radiated from my legs. My brain struggled to process what had just occurred. There had been an explosion, the searing heat, the deafening blast, I must have blacked out. But now that I was awake again, the severity of the situation became terrifyingly clear.I tried to move my legs, but nothing happened. I couldn’t feel them. Not even a twitch. Fear gripped me like a vice as the realization hit—I couldn’t move my legs. They were shattered.I forced my eyes open, blinking through the haze. My vision was unfocused, smeared with dust and smoke. Colors, shadows, and indistinct shapes swirled around me in chaos. But I forced my mind to concentrate, needing to see, to understand.The air was thick with acrid smoke and dust. Shattered metal, broken glass, and parts of the vehicle were strewn everywhere. I winced as I shifted slightly, pain slicing t

Ivy.The frigid night breeze swept over my skin, raising goosebumps as I stood still, muscles tight with anticipation. Every nerve was on edge while I waited, hoping, needing just one person to appear. Night had fallen completely, cloaking everything in a heavy, suffocating darkness. I couldn’t say how long I had been standing there; time always played tricks on me when worry wrapped itself around my chest like a vice.I had learned to endure Luna calantha and Aurora’s relentless torment, their calculated barbs, and their constant attempts to humiliate me. But lately, it had gone beyond simple cruelty. Now, it felt like they were chipping away at me, trying to erase everything that made me who I was. I saw it clearly—they wanted to reduce me to nothing. A voiceless nobody. A servant who wouldn’t dare speak up or defy them.But that’s not who I am. I wasn’t born into chains, and I’ll never let myself be bound by them.Time was running out. If I didn’t act soon, they’d take everything—m

Ethan.I stood by the window, my hands locked behind my back, gazing out over the expansive grounds. The sun was dipping low, bathing the landscape in a soft golden hue. Though the scene was tranquil, it did nothing to quell the tempest raging within me. I had awaited this moment for so long. Lucy—the common omega who had so casually accepted my rejection—was finally within my reach. What baffled me was her complete lack of resistance when I turned her away. Why hadn’t she pleaded, cried, or even fought for what she desired? Instead, she had accepted my refusal without hesitation and returned to the king as if nothing had occurred. It enraged me. No woman had ever dismissed me with such indifference. And now I was forced to live with the bitter reality that this lowly woman had rejected me and caused me to lose everything I ever held dear.For days, I had been scheming, plotting the perfect way to bring her under my control. I wanted her to forget the king, to forget everything else,
