Seraphina

Aria Calloway’s life has one golden rule: stay invisible. It’s the only way for an omega like her to survive, especially since her father’s death in a pack war still wakes her up screaming. 
So, it's baggy clothes, fake glasses, and sticking to the shadows, because the last thing she needs is attention from someone like Lucian Monroe.
 He's the Head Alpha’s son, all dangerous charm and campus royalty, basically everything she’s not. 
But a literal collision in the hallway is just the start, and then he even, bizarrely, defends her from his own crew. Things really spiral at her friend Caleb's party. How do you go back to being invisible when the most powerful guy on campus just branded you with a lie, and what happens when the aftermath of that "mistake" is something neither of them can ignore?

The Alpha’s Rejected MATE

Chapter 78: A Possessive Alpha and a Brother's Peril


My heart hammered in my chest as Lucian emerged from the shadows. Before I could even collect my thoughts, he grabbed my arm, his grip firm but not painful.


"What is your problem?" I snapped, trying to yank my arm away.


His eyes were stormy, filled with an emotion I couldn't quite place. Was it anger? Jealousy? Pain? Maybe all three.


"Do you really like him?" Lucian demanded, his voice low and rough. "Monroe. Do you really like him?"


I stared at him in disbelief. After everything—after he'd rejected me so cruelly, after all the hot and cold behavior—he had the audacity to question me about Caleb?


"That's none of your business," I said, finally freeing my arm.


"Answer me, Aria." His voice was almost pleading now, which threw me off guard.
