The Omega's Secret의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 20

‎River POV ‎‎The forest was quiet, save for the occasional rustle of leaves underfoot. My pace was deliberate, but Rachel was relentless, matching me step for step.‎‎“You really don’t want to talk to me?” she asked, breathless, trying to catch up.‎I exhaled slowly, not stopping, letting my eyes focus on the dark canopy above rather than her. “I’m listening,” I said.‎She let out a frustrated sigh before sprinting ahead, suddenly appearing in front of me with a speed that made my wolf flicker in irritation. She grabbed my hands, her eyes locked on mine. “River,” she said softly but with urgency, “I want you to talk to me.”‎‎I drew in a sharp breath, forcing patience into my tone. “What do you want me to talk to you about?”‎‎“Everything,” she said, her voice cracking slightly. “River… you’ve changed in just three days since… since that girl joined us. You even took her out for night hunting. This… this is supposed to be ours, not you giving it away to some stranger.”‎‎I flinc

‎Seraphina POV‎The door creaked open, and the moment River stepped inside, I was already on my feet.‎“How did it go?” I asked quickly, my voice carrying more urgency than I intended.‎He paused mid-step, his brows pulling together in confusion as he looked at me. “How did what go?”‎“The meeting,” I said immediately, stepping closer. “The one you went for. Did they… ask you to chase me away?”‎The words slipped out before I could stop them.‎River’s expression shifte From confusion, then disbelief. “What? No. Why would they tell me that?”‎I let out a breath I didn’t realize I had been holding, my shoulders dropping slightly.‎“Wait,” he said suddenly, narrowing his eyes at me. “How did you even know I was at a meeting?”‎A small smile tugged at my lips, hesitant but real. “I was in your head.”‎Silence.‎River blinked. Once. Twice. His eyes widened slightly, surprise flickering across his face in a way I had never seen before. “You were… in my head?” he repeated slowly.‎I nodded,

‎‎‎Seraphina POV –‎‎“How is that possible?” I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper, disbelief tightening around my chest like a vice. My fingers trembled slightly in my lap, and I shook my head, as if denying his words could make them less real.‎‎“Seraphina…” River’s voice softened as he reached for my hand, his touch warm, grounding. His thumb brushed lightly against my skin, sending an unfamiliar calm through my veins. “I know you’re scared. I can sense it.”‎‎Of course he could. His wolf was dominant, attuned, powerful. Fear had a scent, and right now, mine must have been overwhelming.‎‎“But you have to fully develop your potential,” he continued, his tone firm but gentle. “Your wolf is incomplete. You’re not in control yet.”‎‎The word control sent a sharp chill down my spine.‎‎I pulled my hand away abruptly, breaking the contact. “No,” I said quickly, shaking my head. “I don’t want to go through that again.” My voice wavered despite my effort to stay strong. I a

‎‎Seraphina POV‎‎Consciousness returned slowly like I was being dragged out of deep, cold water.‎My eyelids fluttered open, heavy and reluctant, and the first thing I saw was River.‎‎He was crouched beside me, far too close for comfort, his sharp eyes scanning my face with an intensity that made my chest tighten. His brows were slightly furrowed, his jaw clenched like he was holding something back.‎‎“Are you okay?” he asked, his voice lower than usual.‎I swallowed, my throat dry, and shook my head weakly. “Not really…”‎‎The words came out softer than I intended, almost fragile.‎‎As I shifted, a sharp sting shot through my ‎hand. I hissed under my breath and lifted it, noticing a long scratch running across my skin. The dried blood had already darkened, but the pain was fresh. ‎‎My brows knitted together.‎‎“What was that?” I asked, my voice gaining urgency as I pushed myself up. ‎“What jumped out of the bush?”‎‎River chuckled.‎Not amused, more like… dismissive.‎

‎Peter POV ‎‎The line glowed.‎‎At first, it was just a flicker beneath my skin, like silver veins awakening after years of dormancy. But then it pulsed again, brighter this time, alive… responding.‎‎My lips slowly stretched into a wide, unrestrained smile. The kind that twisted more on one side than the other. My wolf stirred beneath my flesh, restless, excited its presence brushing against my consciousness like claws scraping stone.‎‎“The spirit has awakened…” I whispered, my voice low, edged with a growl that vibrated in my chest.‎‎I tilted my head upward, my sharp gaze locking onto the night sky. The moon hung full and arrogant, as if watching me judging me.‎A scoff slipped past my lips.‎‎“You did this yourself, Seraphina…” I muttered, my eyes darkening with intent. ‎‎“Now all that’s left… is to find you.”‎‎The air around me shifted subtly my aura leaking out without restraint. It carried dominance, calculation… and something darker.‎‎I turned sharply and strode
