LEAH’S POV The chief announcer steps forward. “Students and faculty members, thank you for assembling this morning. We are gathered here to conclude the Outer Ridge Valley trial and formally recognize the students whose performance demonstrated exceptional resilience, leadership, and adaptability under difficult field conditions.” Difficult field conditions? What a charming way to describe a disaster that sent three heirs of the Great Packs to the medical ward. “Despite the unexpected challenges encountered during the exercise, our students demonstrated commendable determination. The academy recognizes the courage required to navigate dangerous terrain, respond to unforeseen circumstances, and protect fellow participants.” Someone behind me mutters, “Protect them from what? Each other?” A muffled laugh follows. The announcer either does not hear it or chooses not to. “After a thorough review of the available field reports, instructor assessments, and survival records, the acad

LEAH’S POV I have heard insults about my appearance before. I have heard people question my intelligence, my background, and my right to occupy the same classrooms as students from the Great Packs. But used goods? That is a new level of stupidity. “What do you mean?” his companion asks. The first beta scoffs and shakes his head. “Are you blind? Look at what happened during the trial. It is very clear what Regis, Uriel, and Jakob used her for behind the scenes.” The third beta lets out a low whistle. “You think they actually did something to her?” The first boy gives him a look that suggests he has just asked the most obvious question in the world. “What else was an omega like her supposed to do on a three-day trek with three alpha heirs? She was clearly there to spread her legs and suck their cocks whenever they wanted.” A few students passing nearby slow down. One of them makes a face. Another pretends to be interested in the contents of her bag. The second beta laughs. “We

LEAH’S POV For the omegas, who the administration apparently believes should maintain a fragile, slender physique and watch their caloric intake like caged birds, the menu is distinctly different. The kitchen server drops a wooden bowl onto my tray— steamed white rice, a handful of boiled corn kernels, and a small side of unseasoned, watery tofu. I look at the bowl. Then I look at the server. The server looks at me. Neither of us says anything. Perhaps she is waiting for me to complain. Perhaps she is hoping I will simply accept the meal and move along. As I pick up my tray, the light in my eyes dies a bit. Not that I have anything against tofu on principle. Tofu is perfectly respectable when prepared properly. It can be fried, seasoned, simmered in sauce, or combined with enough spices to make even the most stubborn person reconsider their prejudices. But this? This is not a meal. This is an insult that happens to be edible. Looking at it next to the memory of the alpha’s st

LEAH’S POV For one absurd moment, I genuinely wonder whether I have died and arrived in some unpleasant version of the afterlife.Perhaps the gods have decided that my brief period of peace was excessive.Perhaps they have concluded that two days of rest, expensive food, and relative freedom from disaster were more than I deserved.Or maybe I am simply being punished for thinking that the worst of the trial was behind me.Uriel rests his elbows casually on the wooden table, interlocking his pale fingers together.He looks perfectly comfortable. That is the most alarming part.He does not appear angry. He does not appear confused.He does not even look particularly interested in the fact that hundreds of students are watching him sit across from the unranked omega who has become the subject of half the academy’s gossip.He looks as though he has selected a seat in the cafeteria, decided it is satisfactory, and intends to remain there until he has finished whatever brought him here.I
