Summary
It was a terrible, horrible feeling to know a pair of eyes held such things. The windows into his soul, perhaps, but definitely the keys to hers.
His stare made her freeze in place, unable to act properly even though she had promised herself this would be fine. But none of that made her breath hitch quite like the words that came out smoothly from his lips. Three words. Three warm words slipped out into the air and into her ears, now forever in her brain.
“You came home.”

Summary
Lily Evans starts her final year at Hogwarts with a plan: keep her omega instincts buried under suppressants, uphold her title as Head Girl, and prove to everyone—especially herself—that she’s more than a muggleborn or an omega. But balancing the weight of expectations and the looming threat of war isn’t easy, especially when James Potter, her new co-Head, keeps insisting on playing hero.
But Lily doesn’t need a knight in shining armor, especially not one so quick to act on his alpha instincts. She’s fought too hard to be defined by anyone but herself. Yet as the year unfolds, the lines between rivalry, trust, and something deeper begin to blur. James is no longer the arrogant boy she once dismissed, and Lily starts to see glimpses of a man willing to fight beside her—not for her.
Spanning their last year at Hogwarts and the tumultuous years of the First Wizarding War, Hidden Instincts is a slow-burn story of resilience, love, and the quiet courage it takes to trust someone with your heart in a world on the brink of collapse.
