Katie's POV

I ignored him all the way as we navigated through the woods. He is mind-linking me, trying to apologize. It was more like teasing, as he was smiling from ear to ear. I even stomped quietly a while ago when he wouldn't stop chuckling. When we finally got out through the woods, we saw some houses and a jolly group of vampires having fun as the moon lit up in the skies. I asked Vlad if we were already in what he called Center but he just shook his head no. He explained that we are still in the Southern terrain, and it will take us a month or more just to go to the Center regions. I want to ask him what if I wolfed out and carried him at my back, but that would be a bad idea. As we would surely be immediately caught.

He asked me to stay and hide by the bushes, as he would try to ask for some blood so that he could replenish his strength. I pouted but still nodded. He can take my blood, though. My face was beet red as I recalled what transpired earlier. I swat the air, imaginin

  • Unwanted Omega   119 - A Moment of Peace?

    Katie's POVThe world returned to me in fragments—heat at my side, the faint scent of iron, the ragged thump of a heartbeat that wasn’t my own.I expected the first thing I’d hear to be Vladimyr’s voice, low and scathing, ready to tear into me for waking at the wrong time or for stepping into his fight and not just staying behind to watch over our people.But instead…Fingers brushed my cheek. Not harshly. Not to check for wounds like a commander inspecting his soldier, but soft—almost reverent.“Easy, my heart,” he murmured, as though afraid the sound might splinter me. “You’re safe.”Safe..I blinked up at him, confused. His hair was a wild mess from the battle just seconds ago. There was blood drying along his jawline, and the faint red glow in his eyes told me Lucifer hadn’t gone entirely back to sleep. As if that devil of mine would.By all logic, this should be the moment he lectured me until sunrise.Instead, he held me like I might vanish if he let go.“You should be furious,”

  • Unwanted Omega   118 - His North

    Vladimyr's POV The distance between us felt like a taut wire—one wrong move, and it would snap into bloodshed.Draven’s grip on the trembling human duchess was almost casual, but the faint pulse of compulsion in the air told me it wasn’t kindness that kept her still. The human’s knuckles were white where she clutched her skirts, and though her head stayed bowed, I caught the flicker of her eyes. Pleading.“Let her go,” I said. My voice was low, measured—each word a promise sharpened to a blade.“Who?” The damned bloke of a duke asked as he tightened his grip on his supposed to be ‘heart.’I glared. “Both of them. Especially my mate.” “Oh, I will,” Draven said, tilting his head in mock consideration. “But you’ll give me something in return.”His gaze slid over me, assessing, calculating. “That ancient treasure in the North.”My nails dug into my palms. “You’re a fool if you think I’ll hand you that.”‘You don't even know what or where it is.’ Lucifer laughed inside my head. I inwardl

  • Unwanted Omega   117 - Devil's Restraint

    Vladimyr's POVThe air crackled with dark energy. Although, that isn't uncommon here in the vampire territory.The fortress loomed, a monument to Draven's twisted ambition. Lucifer was a coiled shadow, a tense power humming beneath my skin."He knows we're here," my devil murmured, his voice tight.I didn't need him to tell me. The very stones seemed to pulse with anticipation, a kind of predatory awareness that sent a shiver down my spine. But something was off. The air was heavy, stagnant. Almost… expectant."Too quiet," I muttered, my hand instinctively tightening around a stake. "The dumbass psycho is toying with us."Then, a flicker in the corner of my eye. A ripple in the air, like heat rising off asphalt.A portal. But not one of ours. This one pulsed with the same dark energy that permeated the fortress, laced with something else… something sickeningly sweet and familiar.Draven.He stepped through the portal, and I was ready to strike. But this time, it wasn't Draven who cam

  • Unwanted Omega   116 - Wolves Never Wait

    Katie's POV The second I realized he was gone, the ache inside me ignited into a fury that could’ve burned through stone.HOW DARE HE!?!I am honestly considering punching his face for this!‘Please don’t damage his handsome visage!’ Kath whimpered and I could only roll my eyes. Although she, too, is fuming at the audacity of our mate.I leapt off the bed, barefoot, hair a mess, heart pounding loud enough to crack ribs. Fenrir was already growling—low and guttural—his hackles raised and eyes blazing with primal light. My wolf’s presence clawed at the walls of my skull, wild and snarling.‘He left us.. again!’ she hissed. ‘He left us alone! That selfish, reckless, bone-headed bastard! Okay! Now I agree to punching his face!’I inwardly chuckled at her outburst. My teeth were gritted too tightly, and I knew if I opened my mouth now, I might scream so hard the whole castle would shake.I threw open the bedroom doors. With force and purpose.A gust of raw pheromones exploded into the hal

  • Unwanted Omega   115 - Hate You For It

    Vladimyr's POV My beloved heart was asleep in my arms.She had curled against me sometime after we left the twins’ room, her body fitting so perfectly into mine that it almost felt cruel to hold her like this—knowing I’d leave her soon.Yes, again..Her breath was soft and steady, stirring the threads of my tunic. One hand was gently curled over my chest, as if clinging to the beat beneath my ribs. Even my precious Kath was resting. I could sense her slumbering inside Katie’s soul like a pup burrowed in warmth.But I wasn’t resting.Couldn’t.Because my bloodlust still leaked from me like a slow, steady poison. Not violent. Not sharp. Just… constant. A quiet ache that never eased.Lucifer was awake, too.Watching.Waiting.“You’re oddly quiet,” I murmured into the stillness.Inside me, something shifted—almost like a sigh brushing across the inside of my bones. Then his voice, velvet and dry, laced with something ancient and tired. “I was waiting for you to speak first. Trying to be

  • Unwanted Omega   114 -Caged Memory

    Katie's POV It was rather odd.Vladimyr woke up, yes. He is surely perfectly fine, yes.. but there is something about him that’s odd.Or maybe it is just his bloodlust that keeps on oozing until now.I flushed, but I didn’t move from my spot on top of him.“Because I had to!” I hissed, still gripping his hand tightly. “You were about to blast off this bloodlust of yours! I could feel it, Vlad. You were bleeding magic. Until now!! That's what you get when you try to heal everyone when Lucifer just woke up!”He raised a brow, amused and only mildly apologetic. But behind that smirk—behind the usual teasing—there was something darker now. His smile didn’t reach his eyes.“I dreamt…” he murmured, the smile fading. “Of bone cages and wolves tearing through red snow.”My breath hitched. I brushed a damp strand of hair from his face. “Vlad—”“I wasn’t me,” he whispered. “I was watching. Through someone else’s eyes. Something… else’s.”Lucifer.It had to be him.I pulled back slightly, just
