Samson’s POV:

Finished

I stood under a tree at the edge of the field, watching that plain-looking, badly dressed girl at the starting line. My fingers kept rubbing my cuff without me even noticing.

“You’ve been staring at her for ten minutes,” Charles teased in my head, voice playful. “A country Omega doing a physical challenge-is that really worth your time?”

I didn’t answer.

This morning, I was supposed to deal with pack business, but somehow, Grandpa convinced me to come here instead.

Amanda stood in the crowd, and even though she looked boring-even ugly-she still grabbed my attention first, like always.

Just like at the party, when she shut Jessica down. She wasn’t pretty, not really, but for some reason, I kept finding myself pulled toward her.

The obstacle course started. She didn’t take off fast, just slipped in right behind Camilla.

The crowd’s chatter went up and down, mostly people laughing at her.

I caught Josh muttering. “Just wait. She’s gonna eat dirt!”

“This girl’s movements are solid,” Charles cut in suddenly. “The way she bends her knees when she lands-that’s not someone untrained.”

My eyes narrowed.

When she climbed the tall wall, she didn’t use any wolf spirit power. It was pure muscle. Clean, sharp, efficient. Not like an Omega at all. Especially the landing-her toes touched down so lightly that all the force melted away. That stance looked weirdly familiar.

“Strange,” Charles murmured. “Her scent … I’ve smelled something like it before. But I can’t remember where.”

“She’s an Omega. Her wolf spirit hasn’t even awakened,” I said flatly.

“But her grit—the way she moves—it’s almost exactly like a certain snow wolf we know,” Charles pressed. “Still, I can’t sense the mate scent. If there was, I wouldn’t miss it.”

I stayed quiet.

That was exactly why I was confused.

From the way I jumped in to pull her from the pool without thinking, to the frown I gave when I heard she joined this challenge, to this tight, sharp feeling running through me now

it made sense.

This wasn’t me. I never cared about people who didn’t matter. Especially not some random Omega.

But then I saw her step onto the podium. Her hand clutched the mic, her voice not loud but every word steady and sharp. And I felt this strange, stupid pride.

It was as if I was watching someone who had been underestimated their whole life finally make everyone shut up and notice.

“You’re smiling,” Charles said.

“She’s lying,” I replied, low and steady. “She’s not a normal Omega.”

“And the more I look, the more she feels familiar,” Charles added. “Almost like-”

“Like we’ve known her forever,” I finished.

When her speech ended, people rushed around her. Josh bounced at her side like a fool. I turned and walked away fast.

“Maybe something’s blocking her real scent,” Charles suggested. “When she crossed the finish line, I swear I caught something faint. Familiar, but smothered, gone in a flash. Like she was masking it.”

My eyes darkened. She was masking her scent? Why would a small-town Omega need to hide

like that?

“We need to look into her,” Charles said firmly now. “That girl’s hiding something.”

“Yeah.” My answer was short, but certain.

Amanda’s POV:

Standing on the podium, I forced out a stiff, awkward “Thank you,” then my eyes drifted to the edge of the field.

Samson stood there in the shade with Hugh, staring right at me. His gaze was heavy, unblinking.

My heart skipped.

“See? I told you he’d come,” Alice buzzed inside me, excited. “He definitely cares about you!”

“Stop making things up.” I snapped back, but the corner of my lips tilted anyway.

He came. That cold, distant mate of mine actually came to watch me.

“So when are you gonna tell him the truth?” Alice pushed. “You already know he’s mate. Why hide behind this ugly disguise?”
