Chapter One: Just An Omega “Oh, look who it is... Eliza, did you forget to bathe again? I think we can all smell you before we see you, and that’s without the help of our super-strong wolf senses.” Daniella held her nose dramatically and giggled loudly as she closed her locker door and grinned at the crowd, who burst into bouts of laughter. I ignored them, and they always tried to find reasons to tease me. Today wasn’t any better. I was used to it. I should probably explain a bit. My name is Eliza. I am seventeen years of age, and I attend Flintons High School. I am in my last year before college, and I really cannot wait to get out of this hell hole. I will be eighteen soon, and I plan to move as far away as possible. My parents abandoned me as a baby for whatever reason, and trust me when I say I’ve heard all the possible scenarios of what happened. You see, my fellow members of Creek Pack love nothing more than to tell stories
Tomorrow was the day the whole Creek Pack had been preparing for. Daniella’s eighteenth birthday. As the daughter of the Beta. She was of high status, and everything had to be perfect. I had been working hard since getting home from school while everyone else could relax and do whatever they wished. As an omega, that was my duty. “You better not ruin my party.” Daniella glared at me. “Remember, you are just an omega, and I'm the daughter of the alpha-beta. The quads will be all eyes on me when they return from Alpha training tomorrow.” she boasted. I felt a pang of hurt and frustration at Daniella's words. I had worked tirelessly to make her birthday memorable, and her dismissive attitude towards me stung. But I knew better than to let her words get to me. "I would never do anything to ruin your party, Daniella," I replied calmly, trying to keep my emotions in check. "I have put in my best effort to ensure everything is perfect for you. Your happiness is important to me,
"Eliza. You are more than this. I am happy to be here with you at last," a voice called, jolting me awake with a gasp. Another vivid dream had left me disoriented, my heart pounding in my chest as I tried to shake off the lingering echoes of the voice. As I sat up in my bed, the darkness of the early morning enveloping me, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. The voice had sounded so real, so intimate as if it belonged to someone who knew me better than I knew myself. But as I scanned the room, there was no one there but me, the silence echoing back at me. I rubbed my eyes and glanced at the clock on my bedside table; I realised it was almost 5 am. I had slept longer than I intended. Today was the day of Daniella's party, her eighteenth birthday. I sighed at the thought of all my hard work and how unappreciated I was. "Today you turn eighteen," the voice whispered again, shivering my spine. It felt like a message, a reminder of something more profound than I co
I closed the window with a quick flick of my wrist and leapt into bed, pulling my knees to my chest as my heart raced. The rush of adrenaline still pulsed through my veins, a potent reminder of the seismic shift that had occurred within me. It was a secret I couldn't share, not yet. This was something I needed to understand on my own first and let me tell you, it was a lot to process. I had drifted off as an omega, but now, with the dawn of a new day on my birthday, I awoke with the essence of a Wolf coursing through my being. It was a transformation that both exhilarated and terrified me, a duality I grappled with as I contemplated the implications of this newfound power. And to top it all off, fate had decided to intertwine my destiny with Daniella, the one person in my life who harboured hatred towards me. As I lay there, the weight of my reality settling in, I started to drift off again, and the next thing I knew, there was a loud thud at the door. “Omega, you bitch. Wak
“Jasmine, tell me. What are we?” I repeated myself and waited for my Wolf to respond. “Eliza. We are more than this omega rank. We are strong and fierce, and we were born to be something special.” I pinched myself, but I wasn't dreaming, although it felt as if I was stuck in a crazy dream. So tonight, I've made my decision. I'm leaving the pack and starting a new life on my own. I don't know where I'll go or what I'll do, but I'm willing to take the risk. Anything is better than staying in this place where I'm constantly belittled and beaten down. I needed to process everything that had happened. From finding my Wolf to knowing today was my birthday. I had no friends or real family, so what was the big deal with birthdays? Daniella could clean up after her party; it was supposed to be my birthday, too. But I was done being her servant. She would be shocked when she realised I was no longer there at the click of her fingers. “Jasmine. I'm almost ready.” I whispered, kn
“Jasmine, listen to me, we have to leave. We can’t stay here.” I insisted, realising that my cover was about to be blown as my wolf slowly paced towards Rylan. I could not believe this was happening to me. Why did the moon goddess insist on throwing more obstacles my way? All I wanted was to get away from Creek and everyone in it. “You are my mate. What is your name?” Rylan asked softly. He was in his human form, but we could sense his wolf; the connection was palpable. I knew Jasmine could feel the pull of the mate bond, a force that we both couldn't ignore but couldn't fully understand. “I feel like I know you,” Rylan whispered. Daniella pouted crossly at the scenario unfolding in front of her eyes. "What is going on here? Rylan, today is my birthday, and you promised to meet me here, yet you were late. I almost got attacked by a filthy rogue and... “She started to get hysterical, but Rylan wasn't noticing her, which irritated her further. Even though I didn't like
Rylan’s POV A white wolf. She was beautiful, and I felt like I knew her from somewhere but could not put my finger on it. Who was she? The moon goddess had paired us together for a reason. I was blown away by surprise. A white wolf was rare, and she must have held some power wherever she came from. Daniella whining in my ear was irritating the life out of me. I couldn't believe my brothers convinced me to take her as our mate. Rio was more into her than any of us, so ever since we were small, our parents had believed that the moon goddess would pair us with Daniella due to her being the daughter of the better. It was assumed she would be our Luna. We needed a strong and capable female to work alongside us to lead our pack successfully. My parents had done a grand job of running Creek for all of these years, and I wanted to follow in their footsteps Although Daniella was a beautiful, stunning she-Wolf, I could never pretend she was the one for me.
Eliza’s pov “Mate will be looking for us,” Jasmine told me, but I wasn't going to go back there. Not now. They would kill me if they ever found out that it was me who had harmed Daniella. I never knew that I could be capable of anything like that. Jasmine lay down at the edge of a beautiful stream and took a long-needed drink from it. All the running had exhausted poor Jasmine. There was a small entrance at the edge of the stream that would shelter us for the night. I decided it best to shift back to human to allow my Wolf to rest up for a few hours. I could swim in the stream, and luckily, it was the warmer weather, so that I wouldn't freeze. I waded into the stream, the cool water soothing my weary body. “Hey, what are you doing trespassing on our sacred land?” an angry voice boomed from behind us, causing me to be startled. I turned around slowly, my heart racing with fear and guilt. Standing before us was a large, imposing figure - a member of another pack,
