All Chapters of THEIR OMEGA: THEIR OBSESSION: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Maya's POV"I didn't steal anything!" My voice cracked as I pushed myself up from the stone floor, my knees trembling beneath the weight of my uniform.I looked desperately at the senior council members sitting along the long wooden table. "I didn't! Alpha Stephen ordered me to clean his private quarters as a punishment. I was only in his room because he put me there. I didn't take a single document, and he was right there with me!"The elders turned their stern eyes toward the head of the table.Stephen sat with his hands folded neatly over the table, his face unreadable. He slowly raised his dark gaze to meet mine. There was no trace of the man who had broken down choking on his knees three nights ago.There was only the icy, ruthless Alpha of Whiston’s College."She is lying," Stephen said, his voice smooth and utterly devoid of warmth. "I confined her to my wing briefly, yes. But when I entered my quarters, I caught her red-handed, going through my personal, confidential ledgers s

Maya's POVThe silence that fell over the courtyard did not last. Shouts of outrage erupted from the crowd, the pack members waving their fists, demanding justice for the supposed treason.The Head of the Council stepped closer to the high platform, bowing his head toward Stephen. "Alpha, the people expect an example to be set. Allowing her to walk free on a mere promise of proof sets a dangerous precedent. For all we know, she is fabricating lies to escape her righteous sentence."Karl nodded in agreement, a smug expression on his face. "He's right, Stephen. You shouldn't disappoint our people simply because you still harbour lingering feelings for her."Stephen’s brows pulled together into a frown. "What are you talking about, Karl?""Don't play coy," Karl replied, tossing his head back with a laugh. "We all saw her cell last night. I know you went behind our backs to give her special treatment in the dungeon while ordering the rest of us to let her starve in the cold."Stephen turn

Maya's POVI tiptoed back through the castle gates, my mind still reeling from the secret meeting in the woods.Allison paying off the dark-haired maid proved my suspicion. The stolen pack documents had been planted in my room. But as I pushed open the door to my small room, my breath hitched in my throat.Nathan was sitting on the edge of my narrow bed, casually scrolling through his phone.The soft glow of the screen illuminated his sharp jawline and the lazy smile creeping onto his lips. He slowly lifted his head, his eyes locking onto mine."Taking a late-night stroll, Maya?" he asked, slipping his phone into his pocket.I swallowed hard, pressing my back against the closed door. "I... I just couldn't sleep. I went out to get some fresh air."Nathan chuckled, a sound devoid of humor as he stood up. His tall frame towered over the small room, casting a shadow that swallowed me whole. I instinctively pressed closer to the frame behind me, but he closed the distance in two slow strid

Maya's POVThe attic was spotless and stood there, my eyes wide in disbelief. Dust and cobwebs were nowhere to be found. I couldn't understand why Ms. Martha had sent me up here for a punishment detail if the room was already clean.Stepping further inside, I noticed neatly organized shelves holding antique and old framed photographs. I stepped closer to examine them.A framed portrait caught my eye, it showed three young boys standing in a grand courtyard, their features strikingly handsome even at a young age. I recognized Karl, Elijah, and Nathan immediately.Stephen, however, was entirely absent from the frame.Standing directly behind the three young boys was a beautiful woman with long, dark hair, brown eyes, and a smile that lit up the photo. She looked so full of life and so deeply gentle, that I knew she was the Alpha brothers' mother.They had never once spoken about their parents. If I hadn't accidentally stumbled across Alpha Warlock’s records in Stephen's study, I wouldn'

Maya's POVMy hand trembled as I lowered the empty water bottle, staring at Anna with wide eyes. The water soothed my raw throat, but my mind was filled with sudden confusion."You're the one who told Elijah?" I whispered, glancing down the empty hallway to ensure no one was listening. "If you saw me get locked in, why didn't you tell him the whole truth? You knew it wasn't an accident. You knew who did it."Anna’s smile vanished, replaced by a sudden, nervous look across her features. She took a step back, her fingers clutching the apron of her grey uniform."Because the red-haired maid, Chloe, is Ms. Martha’s favorite," she said in a hushed. "Going against her isn't an option for people like us, Maya. Chloe holds all the power among the staff. If I had named her, Ms. Martha would have thrown me out on the street by nightfall. I did what I could by getting Elijah to the door."She reached out, touching my arm gently. "Please, don't get in their way. Chloe and the senior staff... they
