Bistas_She

Cassia Phoenix always dreamed her mate would be her refuge—the one to give her the home she never had, the life she craved. But fate is cruel, and dreams are lies wrapped in pretty promises.

When she finally finds her mate, it’s not salvation. It’s a sentence. 

He’s already claimed by another, and she's nothing more than a mistake he’s determined to erase. Every day, he reminds her that she is unwanted. Unworthy. Unloved.

Being an omega, She spent her life on the fringes of her pack, invisible and expendable. But this? This is worse. 

So she runs.

To Winter Lake, a place that shouldn’t exist, where the rules of the world don’t apply. There, she might find a sliver of peace—if her mate doesn’t hunt her down, and if the powerful alpha of this forbidden pack doesn’t discover the truth about who she is. About what she is.

Staying is dangerous. Impossible, even. But then there’s him. The brown-eyed shifter who saves her from the storm, whose strength and promises make her question everything she thought she knew about fate, loyalty, and belonging. He makes her want to stay. To fight. To believe.

But when she’s spent her entire life running, how does she stop?

Cassia: The Alpha King's Outcast Omega

You know, Cassia, I think you might have misunderstood a few things," Minerva murmurs as she examines my ankle.

I don't take my gaze away from the bedroom wall since it would take one peek for her to know that I spent most of last night and this morning crying.

If there's one thing I could do without when I'm already feeling this raw and exposed, it's criticism or, even worse, judgment.

"Is there another break?" I ask her, pointedly ignoring her comment.

I bet Lucian is hanging on every single word downstairs. He probably sent Minerva up with a script so he could continue his game of let's fool Cassia.

Just because he's kept his distance since I hobbled back to the house and showered before going straight to bed, it doesn't mean I trust him. It doesn't mean anything.

We Know, Cassia
