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?

I glared at the pack treaty documents in front of me, unable to focus. My mind kept drifting back to Aria. Her soft smile. The way she'd blushed on our video call when I brought up her promise. 


Just one more day of this bullshit, and I'd be back with her.


"Lucian, are you even listening?" My father's sharp voice cut through my thoughts.


"Yes, sir." I straightened in my chair, trying to look attentive.


The meeting room felt suffocating. Six pack representatives plus their advisors crowded around the large oak table. My father sat at the head, commanding respect with just his presence.


"As I was saying," he continued, "the northern territory expansion requires careful consideration. Lucian, what's your assessment?"


All eyes turned to me. Shit. I quickly scanned the map in front of me.
