Jacob walks back into the dorm, whistling like nothing in the world is wrong. He throws his bag onto his bed and glances at me, sprawled out on my own bed, staring at the ceiling like it holds all the answers.“Hey, Ty. You good?” he asks, noticing the tension in the room. His eyebrows furrow as he looks at me more closely. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”I sit up, running my hands through my hair. I don’t even know where to start. All the emotions swirling inside me have been boiling over since Landon left earlier, and now it’s like I’m about to explode. Jacob’s become my best friend, and I’ve been holding all this in for too long.“No, Jacob. I’m not good,” I finally blurt out, and he freezes mid-step, clearly taken aback by my sudden outburst. “I’m really not good.”He raises an eyebrow and sits down on the edge of his bed, giving me his full attention. “Alright. Spill. What happened?”I take a deep breath, my heart pounding in my chest. “It’s Landon. He came by earlier. After

I’m sitting outside, trying to enjoy a rare moment of peace between classes when I see Noah approaching. My stomach tightens a little. I knew this conversation was coming—it had to—but I’ve been dreading it. Noah’s always been a good guy, and what happened between me and Landon isn’t exactly easy to explain.He stops in front of me, hands shoved into his pockets, looking down at me with a calm but serious expression. “Mind if I sit?”I nod, scooting over a bit on the bench. “Yeah, of course.”Noah takes a seat next to me, and for a few moments, neither of us say anything. The air between us feels heavy, and I can’t help but feel a little guilty. Noah never pushed me, never made me feel uncomfortable. He was always kind, always there when I needed someone to talk to. And now…“I owe you an apology,” I say quietly, staring down at my hands. “About what happened with Landon… in the dining hall. I never meant for any of this to happen. I didn’t want to hurt you.”Noah shakes his head, his

I sit at the table, waiting for my father to arrive, the clatter of dishes and low murmur of voices around me blending into the background. It’s strange being outside the academy, away from the constant noise and eyes of Ridgecrest. Normally, I’d be on edge, but today… Today feels different. The weight of what I’m about to tell my father is hanging over me, and I’m still trying to wrap my head around it myself.I never thought I’d get here. I always told myself I wasn’t going to rush into anything. I’ve been picky about Omegas my whole life, never wanting to settle, never feeling that pull everyone talked about. I knew I had to choose carefully, and until now, I hadn’t found anyone who made me want to choose.But Tyler changed that.As soon as my father walks in, I see him scanning the room, his eyes landing on me with that familiar smile. He looks the same as always—strong, confident, with the kind of presence that makes people take notice. He waves and makes his way over to the tab

From across the courtyard, I catch sight of him. He’s standing with Jacob, laughing at something, and for a second, everything else fades into the background. His curly brown hair catches the sunlight, and his green eyes are bright, even from where I’m standing. And fuck, the way he looks—stronger than most Omegas, with that stubborn glint in his eyes—it gets me every time.My heart tightens in my chest as I watch him, warmth spreading through me. My Omega. Even though he hasn’t fully accepted it yet, I know he’s chosen me. He might still be hesitant, still trying to figure it all out, but I see the way he looks at me. I can feel it.Like now, when he glances up, his gaze locking on mine. There’s that spark in his eyes, the way his lips curl up slightly. It makes me want to cross the distance between us and pull him into my arms, kiss him until everyone knows he’s mine.But I keep myself in check. I can’t be too possessive, not yet. Tyler’s still figuring things out, still coming to

I smirk and draw my hand to his neck, running my thumb over his scent gland. “Do you want to come to my room with me?” I ask, my voice rough with need, and I watch as his eyes widen. He bites his bottom lip and I watch as the wheels turn in his head. I know he’s scared; scared I’ll take advantage, but that’s the last thing I want to do to him.I lean toward his ear. “You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do, but I would love to show you just how much I want to worship you, my perfect Omega.”Tyler sucks in a breath, and his scent overwhelms me so much that I feel the desk splinter as I hold onto it. He turns his head to face me and I watch as his green gives way to silver; not just a flash, but pure fucking Omega silver.“Will you take care of me, Alpha?” he murmurs and my heart fucking twists.I cup his face with both my hands and bite back a growl. “With my life. I’m yours, Tyler. You’ve ruined me for anyone else. Please allow me to show you just how ruined I am for you.”

I’m practically floating through the day, everything feeling lighter and easier than it ever has. Even the usually dull classes seem tolerable, and I can’t help the grin that keeps tugging at my lips. It’s not like me to feel this way, this… happy.Jacob notices, of course. He’s been side-eyeing me all morning, clearly freaked out by how calm and relaxed I am.“You good?” he asks as we walk to lunch, his voice full of suspicion.“Yeah, why wouldn’t I be?” I reply, trying—and failing—to keep the smile off my face.Jacob stops in his tracks, grabbing my arm to pull me to a halt. “Okay, spill. What the hell happened? You’ve been smiling like a lunatic all day. It’s weird.”I chuckle, shaking my head as I continue walking. “Nothing. I’m just… in a good mood.”Jacob snorts, falling into step beside me. “Bullshit. You’ve been floating around like someone hit you with a bliss pheromone bomb. Did you and Landon…?”I glance at him, raising an eyebrow. “And what if we did?”Jacob’s eyes go wide

I’m already furious before I even get to the infirmary. The second I got the call, everything inside me snapped. Tyler, hurt—unconscious, beaten? The words don’t make sense. None of this makes sense. The rage bubbling inside me is barely contained as I push open the door, my heart pounding so hard it feels like it’s going to explode out of my chest.When I walk in and see him lying there, my anger spikes. Tyler’s face is bruised, swollen, and he’s lying completely still, his eyes closed like he hasn’t moved since they found him. Jacob is sitting at his bedside, his face tight with worry, and the sight only makes me angrier.Whoever did this—whoever touched him—was going to pay.“Jacob,” I snap, storming up to Tyler’s bed, “what the hell happened?”Jacob glances up at me, his expression strained. “I don’t know, Landon. I don’t know what the fuck happened.”His words only stoke the fire inside me. How the hell could he not know? I look down at Tyler, the bruises on his cheek, the cut ne

I sit there, watching Tyler as his breathing steadies, his face still bruised but peaceful now that sleep has taken him. Every second I sit here, knowing who did this to him, knowing Jace is probably out there, smug, makes my skin crawl. I can’t let it slide. Not this time.Once I’m sure Tyler is fully asleep, I stand up, my hands still clenched into fists at my sides. Jacob looks up at me, his expression cautious. He knows me too well.“You’re not going after them, are you?” Jacob asks, his voice low, but there’s no point in pretending he doesn’t know the answer.I don’t bother lying. “I’m not letting them get away with this.”Jacob frowns, standing up as if to block my path. “Tyler told you not to go after them. He doesn’t want you to get in trouble.”I glance at Tyler, still unconscious and vulnerable in that bed. “This isn’t about getting into fucking trouble; I don't give a shit about me. This is about what they did to him. You expect me to just let that go?”He sighs, running a

I let it go for now. I know better than to push Tyler when he’s still sorting through a million things at once. I can practically see the gears grinding in his head. I can see the way he’s holding everything in—questions, emotions, grief, betrayal. It’s all there in his posture. Tight. Guarded. Controlled.But I’m not done yet. Not even close.“I need to tell you the rest,” I say, and my voice sounds quieter now, like even I can feel how fragile this moment is.Tyler lifts his eyes to mine, and for the first time since we walked in, they don’t burn with hurt. Just exhaustion.“It’s about Xavier,” I say, my fingers tightening slightly around Xavier’s hand beneath the table. “What they did to him… the reason we’re here now… it’s bigger than what it looks like.”Xavier’s quiet next to me, but I feel him shift, feel the slight tremble in his fingers. He doesn’t look at Tyler—his gaze stays on the table, shoulders just a little hunched, like he’s bracing for impact even though he doesn’t n

I don’t remember the drive over. Not really.I remember the hum of the engine, the low rumble of tires on the road, and the way Xavier’s hand never left mine the whole way. I remember the way my heart sat like a stone in my chest, slow and sick with nerves. I remember trying to breathe around it. But the second we pulled up outside the little private meeting space arranged by my father’s team, all of that faded into one single, sharp thought:I’m about to lose him.Because no matter how many times I rehearsed this conversation in my head—no matter how many versions I tried to imagine—none of them ended with things going back to the way they were.Tyler was my first real friend. My anchor. The one person who made it feel okay to be small sometimes. And now I’m about to tell him that everything he thought he knew about me was a lie.The building is quiet when we step inside. Sleek and neutral, like the kind of place used for off-the-books meetings and private council visits. The securit

The moment Jacob starts pacing, I know it’s going to be one of those nights.He doesn’t even try to pretend otherwise. Doesn’t try to play it off with that lazy smirk he gives when he wants to pretend he’s got everything under control. Tonight, he doesn’t have it. He’s wearing a threadbare shirt I love on him—one of the few pieces in his wardrobe that doesn’t scream “Alpha heir of a powerful empire”—but the way he’s tugging at the hem, running his hand through his hair every few minutes, chewing the inside of his cheek like it’s a damn snack? It’s obvious.He’s nervous, and if he circles past the fireplace one more time, I’m going to throw a pillow at his head.He doesn’t even realize he’s doing it. He’s somewhere else entirely, lost in whatever spiraling train of thought his brain has decided to torture him with tonight. His brows are drawn tight, his jaw clenched, and he keeps raking a hand through his hair like it’ll magically produce answers if he does it enough.I’m curled up on

It’s been two hours since Jacob’s call, and I haven’t stopped thinking about it.He sounded… different. Tired, but not just physically. Not like he was exhausted from lack of sleep or overtraining like back at the Academy. This was deeper. Heavier. Like something had been sitting on him for a long time, and only now was he starting to come up for air.The Turner-Alcott family.It didn’t make sense at first. I couldn’t figure out why that name hit me the way it did, like something half-buried in my memory just got kicked loose. It wasn’t just the weight in Jacob’s voice—it was the way he told me to talk to Landon. Not a teacher. Not administration. Landon.Landon’s out on the patio behind our dorm, shirt sleeves rolled up, flipping through a stack of papers for one of his business classes. His legs are kicked up on the table, glasses perched on the edge of his nose—he only wears them when he’s reading for long stretches, and for some reason, the sight of him like that still makes somet

The kitchen smells like cinnamon and coffee and toasted bread, and Xavier’s still chattering behind me while I flip the last of the waffles onto a plate. He’s perched on the counter, legs swinging back and forth, his hair damp from a shower and face clean of makeup for once, not because he forgot it, but because I think today he just wanted to feel simple. Real.He looks good like this. He looks good all the time, but there’s something about this version—barefaced, in one of my oversized sweatshirts, ankles crossed, cheeks flushed with something that’s not stress for once—that just hits different.He’s talking about something he read on one of the gossip threads back at the Academy—some rumor about two bonded Alphas who got into a fight in the dining hall over protein powder or territory or something ridiculous. I’m only half-listening, smiling at the way his voice lifts when he gets worked up, how his hands move when he’s trying to paint the scene for me.Then my phone buzzes on the

Xavier’s practically melted across me, one leg hooked over my thigh, his face buried in my neck. His curls are everywhere, and I swear half of them are in my mouth. He’s still breathing slow, deep and even, but the moment I shift just a little, his fingers twitch against my chest.“I know you’re awake,” I murmur, voice still rough with sleep.He groans dramatically but doesn’t move. “M’not.”“You just responded.”“No I didn’t.”A laugh rumbles low in my throat. “You’re not very good at this.”“I’m amazing at this,” he says, voice muffled in my neck. “I’m playing dead so my Alpha doesn’t get up and leave me.”“I wasn’t planning on leaving.”He lifts his head slowly, finally, eyes still half-lidded and hazy with sleep. But there’s a spark there now, a light that wasn’t always present before. That playful glint I’ve been seeing more and more of—the one that tells me he’s starting to feel safe enough to be himself around me, not just the version he was forced to perform for years.“You al

Xavier’s asleep in my arms. Or at least, I think he is. He’s breathing like it, soft and steady against my chest, one hand curled near his face, the other resting over my ribs like I’ll vanish if he lets go. His cheek is pressed to the space just above my heart, and I swear to god, every time he exhales, something in me settles a little more.The sheets are still damp from when we fell into bed after the bath—too tired to dry off all the way, too tangled up in each other to care. We hadn’t planned it. That wasn’t what the bath was supposed to be. I ran it for him because he needed comfort, and I needed to give it to him. Needed to do something to remind him that the world could still be kind. That he was still loved. But somewhere between the water and the steam and the quiet way he looked at me—something shifted.And it was him. He was the one who let his scent roll out first, thick and heavy and laced with need so strong I could barely think. No hesitation, no fear. Just instinct a

The scent changes before either of us says another word.It’s subtle at first—sweet and familiar, like ripe peaches hanging heavy on the branch, but then it shifts. Grows thicker, headier. There’s heat behind it now, and it hits me all at once, coating my lungs and curling around my instincts like a damn vice.“Xavier,” I murmur, voice low and full of warning. My hand tightens where it’s resting on his hip. “That scent. You need to pull it back.”His eyes flick up to mine, steady and calm. That perfect omega calm that hides all the fire underneath. “Why?” he asks simply, like it’s nothing. Like the sudden ache in my gut and the hard press of my cock against his back is something we can just ignore.My grip tightens again, and I fight to keep my voice level. “Because I’m not gonna be able to stop myself if you don’t.”He turns in my arms slowly, his skin sliding against mine under the water, every brush of his body lighting me up like a fucking fuse. His hands find my chest, sliding ov

Jacob doesn’t speak as we walk through the estate. Doesn’t comment when I hesitate slightly near the front foyer, my body remembering the tension of walking through those doors earlier. He just grabs my hand and keeps walking until we reach the garage doors.When he opens one, I blink.Inside, lined up neatly like something out of a magazine, are cars. Sleek, glossy, expensive as hell. A few motorcycles. And in the back, tucked in the corner, a matte black four-wheeler that looks like it’s seen actual off-road chaos.I blink again. “You want me to drive that?”“No,” Jacob says, grinning. “I’m driving. You’re riding.”I stare at him. “I don’t think I’ve ever been on a four-wheeler.”He shrugs. “Then you’re about to lose your off-roading virginity.”I groan. “You’re unbearable.”He tosses me a helmet from the shelf. “And you love it.”A few minutes later, we’re flying across the property—through the trees, over dirt trails I didn’t even know were there. The wind whips around us, fast an
