Elliott's POV

I planted my feet, arms outstretched, forming a barrier between the worried mother and Reylap. “Give her room,” I said, my voice low but firm. The woman hesitated, her eyes darting from Reylap to her pale child. “She needs to concentrate.”

I knew who she was, of course. My discreet inquiries had confirmed her reputation. A healer, once highly regarded in her old pack, before the whispers started circulating. My gut churned, a volatile mix of suspicion and a desperate need for a m

  • The Omega He Banished    Syrn's hand

    Elliott's POV The air in the room was thick with the copper tang of blood and the lingering, oily stench of the rot that had claimed Kael. I stood by the window, my back to the small, cold body on the cot. The pack had been ushered out—Mara’s screams still echoed in my ears like a physical wound—but the silence that remained was worse. It was heavy, accusing.Rika’s footsteps were soft as she approached. I didn’t turn around. I couldn’t look at the boy again."Eliott," she whispered, her voice tight with a tension that went beyond grief. "Forgive me for what I’m about to say. I know the timing is… it’s godawful. But I have every reason to suspect the healer who was here."I felt a cold prickle at the base of my neck. "Elara? Rika, she’s a friend to my family. She’s been treating our wounded since I was a pup.""I don’t care if she delivered you herself," Rika snapped, stepping into my peripheral vision. Her hands were still stained dark, the silver paste caught under her nails. "I di

  • The Omega He Banished    The boy dies

    Rika's POV"Hold his jaw! Reylap, don't let go!"I shouted the order over the wet, rattling sound of Kael’s lungs. My hands were shaking—a sin for a healer—as I reached for the infusion of elderberry and crushed wolfsbane root. It was a desperate gamble, a toxin to fight whatever toxin was ravaging his blood, but the boy was already slipping. "Rika, he’s burning up," Reylap whispered, her voice cracking. "I can feel the heat through my skin. It’s like he’s on fire from the inside."I pressed my palm to Kael’s forehead and hissed, pulling back. "His fever is past a hundred and six. A werewolf pup shouldn't even be able to sustain this. His brain should have fried an hour ago.""Then why is he still breathing?" Mara wailed from the corner, her fingers dug into her own cheeks. "Do something! You’re the Lead Healer! Do something!""I am doing everything!" I snapped, the stress boiling over. "I’ve tried the white willow, the fever-few, the cold-bath immersion, and three different purges.

  • The Omega He Banished    A scapegoat

    Reylap’s POVThe air in the healer’s small guest quarters felt thick, like the atmosphere before a thunderstorm. Morra sat by the low-burning fire, her gnarled fingers sorting through a pile of dried, greyish stalks. She hadn't looked up when I entered, but I knew she felt me there."You called for me?" I asked, staying close to the door. My hand instinctively covered my stomach."Come closer, girl," Morra rasped. She didn't turn. "I leave at dawn. The Alpha’s hospitality is... finite. But your needs are not.""I have everything I need. Rika looks after me."Morra let out a dry, hacking laugh that sounded like stones grinding together. "Rika is a midwife. She knows how to catch a pup. She does not know how to handle what you are carrying. You are different, Reylap. The scent of your blood... it’s heavy. Too heavy."I took a cautious step forward, my heart hammering against my ribs. "What are you talking about?""Take these," she said, finally turning. She held out a bundle of herbs wr

  • The Omega He Banished    A guest

    Reylap’s POVThe sharp, rhythmic rapping against the bedroom door cut through the haze of my sleep like a blade. I bolted upright, my heart hammering against my ribs, the instinct to flee still raw and jagged in my chest. "Elliott?" I hissed, clutching the duvet to my collarbone.Elliott groaned, his large frame shifting beside me. He looked at the door, then back at me, his eyes softening despite the intrusion. "It’s just one of the guards, Reylap. Relax.""Don't open it," I whispered, my voice trembling. "Not while I'm here. Please."The knocking came again, louder this time. "Alpha? We have news regarding the visitor."Elliott sat up, his bare shoulders bronzing in the morning light. Instead of reaching for his shirt to hide me, he reached for my hand. "I’m not hiding you anymore. I’m going to open that door, and I’m going to show them exactly who you are to me.""No!" I scrambled back toward the headboard, my eyes wide. "Elliott, look at me. My hair is a mess, I’m wearing your ov

  • The Omega He Banished    Thank you

    Reylap’s POVI stared at the half-empty pickle jar in my hand, the brine sloshing slightly as my fingers trembled. The air in the kitchen was thick, charged with the confession Elliott had just laid bare between us. My heart felt like a bird trapped in a cage, fluttering against my ribs with a frantic, hopeful rhythm. I looked up at him, my eyes burning with the remnants of the tears I’d shed only moments ago. "Is this really it, then?" I asked, my voice cracking before I forced a dry, half-jesting tone into it. "Is this what you imagined when you thought about acknowledging the bond? Be honest with me, Elliott."He didn't move from his position between my knees. His hands remained braced on the counter, caging me in, but it didn't feel like a prison. It felt like an anchor. "What do you mean?""The glamour of the Alpha's mate," I said, gesturing vaguely with a pickle spear. "Did you imagine the middle-of-the-night emergencies? The 3:00 AM pickle raids? Did you picture a woman who cr

  • The Omega He Banished    Pickles

    Reylap’s POV"I need pickles," I said, my voice cutting through the heavy silence of the bedroom.Eliott groaned, the sound muffled by his pillow. He shifted beside me, the heat of his body a sharp contrast to the chill in the air. "Reylap? It’s three in the morning. Are you okay? Is the baby kicking again?""The baby is fine. The baby wants vinegar and crunch," I insisted, propping myself up on my elbows. My back ached, and my stomach felt like a lead weight, but the craving was a physical itch I couldn't scratch. "Please, Eliott. The big jar. The ones with the garlic cloves at the bottom."He sat up slowly, rubbing his face with both hands. His hair was a chaotic nest of dark strands, and he looked entirely disoriented. "Pickles. At three. Right. Okay.""You don't have to," I said, though my eyes were wide and pleading."No, I’m going," he muttered, swinging his legs over the side of the bed. He was half-dressed, wearing only his lounge pants, his bare torso glowing faintly in the m

    “No." Farida’s smile thinned slightly. “I said, kneel.”I looked at her slowly, exhaustion twisting inside me so violently I almost started laughing again. “You stole my ceremony, my mate, my title, and now you want my dignity too?” I tilted my head. “Greedy.”A sharp murmur spread through the roo

    Reylap’s POVI heard the music before I even reached the gates, and I knew it was a celebration. I could hear drums and voices and that particular kind of joy that carries across pack grounds when there's good news, and for one foolish, breathless second my heart lifted, because I thought it was fo

    Elliott's POVI let the muttering fill the air, a low, dangerous hum that grated against my nerves. My jaw was locked so tight I felt the ache all the way to my ears. They talked in whispers, in hushed, cruel tones, but every word clawed at me. “Rogue.” “Danger.” “Outsider.” All aimed at her. All
