Omega to Alpha 19. The Awakening
AthenaThe telephone—one of the basic technologies we lacked in our pack, rang. I winced as the man tried to kiss my cheek, repulsed by his touch. He took up the receiver while I struggled with the chair.“Yes, I definitely do. I’m not surprised you didn’t tell her what was at stake. We had a little fight, but she seems to be getting along,” he shot me a quick glance as he said those words before he laughed. The laughter rang in my ears and immediately, I felt a burning heat stirring up within me. I fought the urge to scream at him, but my anger boiled over, and I let out a ferocious roar that shook me to my core. It was as though I’d lost control of myself. Something else had taken over me. Something that was stronger than the anger I felt. Then, I heard a scream that sounded like the man, but my body was going through something I’d never experienced. My internal organs, my head, my jaws, everything, were tearing apart. Suddenly, my entire body convulsed, and a terrifying growl emerg
Omega to Alpha 20. Mate Bond
Dante’s POVOnce a loner, I struggled with depression and felt like I didn't fit in with my family. They called me weak and too soft, and I could never seem to do anything right in their eyes—I was too soft to be from the lineage of the alpha kings. Even with my loving nature, I couldn’t find my fated mate. I should not be blamed for contributing very little to my father’s kingdom especially when I was raised by parents that never saw anything good in whatever I did. I forgot to add, I was the only heir to the throne. Dante White is my name, the soon-to-be Alpha king of the Lycans. Tragedy struck when my mother passed away. She died when I was twenty-eight. I always believed she died from a natural cause until I discovered that a werewolf killed her. Ever since that day, I hunted down werewolves. My kingdom and the werewolves became terrible enemies. I nursed this wrath all my life to the point that I didn’t have to wait for a werewolf to trespass our land, I went hunting for them in
Omega to Alpha 21. The Alpha King
Dante’s POVMy father’s room was empty. I expected the beta to be by his side as instructed. I took the chance to inform my father, the great Zachary White, of my luck. I sat beside him. His eyes were wide open without a blink. He often looked that way sometimes. I took his palm and said plainly,“I’ve found a mate, father. I found my fated mate. I blushed as I spoke. The thoughts of her warmed my heart. “I’m not alone anymore. The moon goddess has finally heard your prayers and I must admit, she’s worth the wait. She’s beautiful and young with the most hypnotic eyes. Oh! Father, you need to see her. I asked the maids to dress her up. I’ll mark her as soon as I leave your presence. I’ve waited enough. We could have the ceremony tonight if possible. What do you say?” I turned to my father for a response. His lips were slightly open.“Can you hear me, father?” I knelt beside him and took his hands in a bid to wake him up, in case he was asleep. I called out multiple times. It never took
Omega to Alpha 22. Hopeless Romantic
Athena's POVI fought the urge to give in to my wolf. Left to her, she would have wrapped her hands around her mate and never let him go. I was proving stubborn fighting my conflicting emotions. I tried to deny what I felt. The vibration in his voice as he spoke so close to me felt like I was floating in space. The texture of his palms over my waist set my whole nerves on fire. I never knew the mate bond was that powerful. I couldn’t utter a word. His scent choked my breath in a good way. I loved it. I didn’t want it to stop. I wanted the moment to last forever. He leaned forward as though he wanted to steal a kiss. My heart pounded as he drew closer, his breath had mixed with mine and the only space between us was tinier than a sugar crystal. I closed my eyes as I waited for his lips to graze my skin when I heard him speak,“I’ll never do anything to you until you’re ready, Athena, and I’m ready to prove it to you.” I pulled away from him. There was nowhere else for me to run to—I de
Omega to Alpha 23. Date gone wrong
Athena’s POVWe boarded one of the fancy carriages parked close to a ranch within the premise. The horses looked healthier than the ones I came across in Colorado. There was always that intensity I felt around him. It seemed he couldn’t resist the urge to touch me either.“Did you really mean what you said back there?” he asked. I pretended as though I knew nothing of what he asked. He read my expression and added,“I mean, the rating you gave me. Do you mean I haven’t done anything to win you over?” I could feel the emotions in his words.“Stop lying to yourself, Athena,” Sue spoke after a hurtful silence. My wolf understood my emotions better than I did.“Just tell him you love him and tell him your plans about the girls in our pack. He could be of help you know?” My wolf protested.“I told you earlier. Inviting him over will paint me as an enemy to the pack. Do you think our pack would ever believe that the Lycans would ever accept us? How do you want me to convince them that I cam
Omega to Alpha 24. Abscond
Dante's POV“You’ll pay for this, Eric!” I roared as I rushed down to her. She was bleeding. Eric was among my enemies from the vampire kingdom. He had taunted me in the past that I could never find a mate. I didn’t realize the news of my mate would ever get to him—it’s been years since we crossed paths. I screamed her name severally until her eyes went shut.“Redirect the sail! We need to head back this minute,” I ordered the captain as I lifted her body from the deck and rushed into one of the rooms on the top floor. If I could stop the bleeding, there was a good chance she’ll survive, I convinced myself as I stuffed several clothes over her bleeding neck—I was terrible at administering first aid. That bloody bastard tried to drink my mate’s blood. He’ll regret it soon. I confirmed her pulse. It was weak but beating. That was a relief. I didn’t understand why she couldn’t heal herself since she was a werewolf. The ship was taking forever. I couldn’t watch her die as her palms were g
Omega to Alpha 25. Wrong Decision
Athena's POVI dumped the keys I stole from Dante during our intimate moment at the corner of the castle as I zoomed off on foot. The sun was setting too fast and coupled with my weakness, I knew I had to hasten up if I didn’t want to encounter danger. I wasn’t strong enough to defend myself from an attacker. My pack was miles away but I was willing to try for the sake of my mother, and family. No matter how much we seemed to grow, we never get over a mother’s love. Even if I decided to come back to my mate, my mother deserved a better life too. I couldn’t continue my life without her knowing how much pain she sacrificed for me. She deserved more. That was my motivation for returning to my pack. I knew it wouldn’t be easy rescuing the other slaves at the Omega’s quarters but I planned to stay a while in my mother’s arms hoping that Mr. Styles would be away. I alternated between running, walking, and crawling. Whenever I developed shortness of breath, I took rests at intervals, so I do
Omega to Alpha 26. Missing Mate
Dante's POVIt’d been over twenty-four hours since my mate got missing. I subjected everyone in the kingdom to a compulsory search but they all kept bringing back the same result I didn’t want to accept, “We didn’t find her.” It made me even more depressed than I ever was. I barely got out from her room. It wasn’t the best way to fix the situation, I knew. A strong leader like me wasn’t expected to sulk around but I couldn’t help it. Was I not enough? Did I do something wrong? Was I too forward with the intimacy? But she initiated it. I couldn’t wrap my head around the reason for her departure. I was ready to clear her doubts regardless of whatever it might be but the fear of receiving another rejection delayed my next move—going to her pack. “My King, you’ve been indoor for too long. This is not a healthy lifestyle. You need people around you in times like this,” Tyler said as he entered my room, kicking empty bottles on his path as he rolled the curtain open. I protested, turning o

Omega to Alpha 86. New Legacy
Athena's POVOf a truth, I was more than glad to see Kevin again. And the fact that he saved my life yet again from the blues melted my heart. As he held my wrist with Cosmo in our middle, it only felt right to give love a chance.But there was Dante. And I felt it. I felt the spark like it never left.

Kevin rushed to carry her and ran. I trailed his steps, scared for my daughter's life. Her bod
Omega to Alpha 85. Final Showdown
Dante's POV"Who are you?" I demanded, turning around. It was pitch black but I saw two blood shot eyes glowing."A prisoner, just like you're now. You smell like fresh blood.""I'm not a prisoner," I corrected, ignoring who ever it was as I tried to find my way out."It's a waste of time," the voice said.I was beginning to believe the words until I felt a door knob. But, it pulled open without my effort. I backed away as three men barged in to me, holding lamps. "What have you done, Dante!" the man in front, with thick beards roared, while the other two men held me down."Have we met?" I asked, without regard for the authority he seemed to command.There was a loud noise coming from outside. Like a war. Then I realized my warriors were around, giving me more courage."How dare you come into my kingdom to cause havoc!" I caught a view of the turbulence outside behind him. It was a bloody sight. It was hard to tell who was winning the fight. "I presume you're the vampire Lord, ar
Omega to Alpha 84. Saving Cosmo
Athena's POVMy heart pounded heavily as we got into the surroundings of a large mansion. I had Cosmo climb on my back before we passed the rocky slope. Her weight slowed me down, as the witch led all through.I saw a large mansion, and my uneasiness only grew wild.She pulled me back as I continued toward it,"We have no business with the Vampire Lord, remember? It's this way," she said.We took the first turning to our right and proceeded down a flight of stairs that had mosses and spirogyra growing all over its surface."Where's this place?" I asked, in awe."the sacred grounds. It was the same place my people were killed and sacrificed. We would most certainly encounter opposition here. It's never left unguarded."I instinctively clutched my arm around Cosmo's wrist on my neck as we continued down the multiple stairs.She gestured for me to stop, her eyes glistening as she looked around us.A piercing cry struck me. Cosmo's cry. "Cosmo!" I yelled as I pulled her from my back to t
Omega to Alpha 83. Vampires' quarters
Dante's POV"I need your help," I broke the surprise on his face as I approached the front deck."How may I be of use to the King?" Tony asked with his crooked voice, broken with old age."The Vampire Lord. I need to know him. I need to find him. Is that too much to ask of you tonight?""My King, does not believe in sorcery. I'ld rather not bother you," he said with a bow."It's an order, Tony. It's the only chance I have. Get on your horse. Are your legs too feeble to ride?" I enquired, as he pulled an Arabian horse toward me, immediately I made the order."My skills are very much intact. my major concern is our sudden visit to the vampires. Their powers are twice as much now," he suggested, brushing the hair of his horse like one preparing for an honorary visit. "That's why you're coming with me. Do whatever you have to do.""I'm stricken with age Alpha. I'm not the best man for a fight. I can only see in part. That's the only power I have. We may need back up."We rode out of the
Omega to Alpha 82. Dry Bones
Athena's POVThe pack's healers fed the witch with herbs she'd requested herself, pointing at trees around, including wolfsbane.I squatted beside the old witch, watching how she rolled the herbs into several balls, applying the juice into every opening on her face, including her nostrils.She kept a few of the balls in her clothing,"We may need some of these. Just in case," she said.Behind me was a troop. The entire pack, arranged according to their war experiences and agility. The feeble ones amongst us were made to converge at the middle. An order we've maintained since our conception as a pack, forming a defense against the weak. Everyone prepared their weapons. Animal horns, drenched with liquid silver and wolf bane, arrows, daggers, and spears. The only weapon I had with me was the witch who seemed to know alot about our enemy."We don't have much time," the witch said in a crooked tone groaning in pain as she got back on her feet.She held a walking, but what she did with
Omega to Alpha 81. Sinister Affair
Dante's PoVI was confused. Someone was in there with her. Who was it that made her laugh more cheerfully than I ever made her? After all my efforts at making things work. Why did they choose to hide in such filth?"I don't know what's going to happen now that he's marked me. We might have to cut our seeing,"Charlotte's whisper reached my hearing even louder. There was no mistaking her voice. I followed her scent. The surprise clouded my reasoning of what could be.I was more interested in knowing how the conversation would end. I wanted to find all the answers without having to confront both of them yet my rage boiled like wild fire."His reign is for a while. We've come this far. Very soon, we'll form our own empire. I'm tired of staying in the dung. But, anything to be with you.""You flatter me.""Some day we're gonna have this on his bed. Make you moan and cry my name.""That's too risky. He'll kill you.""I've never been afraid of death. You're quick to forget my status. I'm
Omega to Alpha 80. Steamy pleasures
Dante's POVAlarmed, she scanned my face and the flowers in my hands.I didn't know what to do but my heart raced.She had to say something. I desperately wanted her to accept my offer before I changed my mind. After all, that was what she always wanted. The moment only grew more awkward and to my amazement she dashed out of my presence."Charlotte!" I yelled, dumping the roses in my hands to chase after her. She tripped on her dress but I caught her before she got up."That's not how to treat your husband, the king!" I raised my voice. It was too late to caution myself, as tears began to stream down her face."I'm sorry," I managed to say, looking into her eyes to soften the moment."There's no doubts, you're drunk again," she responded, pulling away from me and running towards the palace.I watched her run from me, heaved a sigh before trailing her footsteps.I didn't expect her to be difficult.I had to end all of it today. I had to prove to my mother that all she wanted from At
Omega to Alpha 79. Mending Hearts
Dante's POVShe was gone. I scoured every conceivable place, desperately searching for her, but she eluded me. My mother made it even more challenging for me to forget."Have you looked into neighboring packs? Don't you care about your daughter at all?" my mother interrogated one morning during breakfast."I've done everything I can, mother. There are no packs around save the vampires. Besides, She's better off without me," I replied, burdened with overwhelming guilt."Immersing yourself in strong wine and distancing yourself from your family won't lead to healing, my son. Find my grandchild as soon as you can."Her words struck me with such force that I dropped my cutlery in frustration, unable to bear the weight of her unending accusation."And what about Ben? Charlotte is the Queen Mother. It was wrong for me to have fallen in love with a werewolf in the first place. This is my way of setting things right, just as you wanted," I snapped back, muffled by the towel on my lips as I re
