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?

"For your final project, you'll be working in pairs." 


Professor Miller's words cut through the quiet classroom. I sat up straighter in my seat, anxiety already bubbling in my stomach. Group projects weren't my favorite thing.


"This assignment will count for forty percent of your final grade," she continued, pushing her glasses up her nose. "You'll analyze a literary work of your choice, focusing on symbolism and cultural context."


Whispers erupted around me as students exchanged glances, silently forming alliances. I glanced over at Vivienne, who was already leaning toward Debra, her lab partner. My heart sank. I was sitting alone, as usual.


"To keep things simple, partner with your seatmate," Professor Miller announced.


I glanced at the empty seat beside me and sighed. Just my luck.
