The Omega Crest Bond Rejection and the Alpha’s FallChapter 1

Five years after Kael Stormhowl returned to me, we went to visit my father's grave.

On our way out, I caught the scent of Raven Duskveil—the she-wolf who had destroyed my mate bond and killed my sire.

She stood hunched against the bitter wind, a few bundles of white chrysanthemums strapped to her back, offering them to passing wolves with a pitiful whine in her throat.

Kael's steps faltered for just a moment before he steered me away, his expression carefully blank. But I felt his muscles tense beneath my fingers, caught the spike of something sharp and wanting in his scent.

But halfway back to the den, he said he'd dropped something at the burial grounds.

"The wind carries ice tonight," he insisted. "Stay in the carriage. I'll go alone."

I followed him anyway.

I watched him shift into his wolf form with almost frantic haste, paws striking the frozen ground so hard they left deep gouges in the earth.

I watched him run toward that hunched figure without a second's hesitation.

I watched him wrap the cashmere coat I'd just bought him around her thin shoulders, his hands lingering on her arms.
