Return of The Rejected Omega Chapter 33
SilasThe dumpster broke my fall, and It was starting to rain.Rotting cardboard and black garbage bags cushioned the impact, but didn't stop the burst of agony that exploded through my side. The infection pulsed, hot and angry, as I rolled onto wet pavement. Above, Jarek's curse echoed off brick walls."Find him! Don't let that blood trail go cold!"I dragged myself behind the dumpster, pressing my back against grimy metal. Each breath felt like swallowing glass. The mate bond twisted in my chest, Stella's fear a dull roar underneath the pain. They were doing something to her. Something that made our connection stutter and fade like a dying radio signal.Boots scraped concrete nearby. I closed my eyes, willing my heart to slow. The hunters would track my blood, but the garbage stench might buy me minutes. Maybe less."Over here!" A voice hissed from the shadows. "Quick!"I squinted through the rain. A figure crouched in a doorway, gesturing urgently. The dim light caught the edge of

SilasConsciousness returned in fragments.First came sound—a monitor's steady beep, distant drips echoing through stone, someone murmuring in a language I'd forgotten. The sensation crawled back, nerve endings sparking awake. The infection's burn had dulled to an ache, replaced by something colder. Different.I opened my eyes to darkness."Welcome back." Rey's voice drifted from somewhere left. "Thought we lost you for a minute there."The mate bond pulsed weakly, but at least it was there. Whatever Veronica was doing to Stella hadn't severed our connection. Not yet."How long?" My throat felt raw."Seventeen minutes." Footsteps approached. A light clicked on, revealing Rey's scarred face. "The treatment worked. Mostly."I pushed up onto my elbows, ignoring the vertigo. The doctor stood by a bank of monitors, her surgical mask pulled down to reveal features carved from granite. Ancient texts lay scattered across her desk—Andrea's research, judging by the handwriting."The infection's

SilasThe security response was too perfect. Guards moved in synchronized patterns, their boots echoing off steel walkways at precise intervals. Not searching. Herding.I let them.Lab Six's entrance loomed ahead—metal doors sealed with electronic locks, cameras tracking every approach. The mate bond pulled stronger here, sharp enough to make my teeth ache. But Stella's presence felt wrong somehow. Muted. Like something was interfering with our connection.A guard's radio crackled. "Target approaching Block D."No point hiding now.I stepped into the camera's view. Rifles snapped up, red dots dancing across my chest. The treatment had steadied my hands, but that artificial chill spread deeper, frost growing under my skin. One hour left, maybe less."On your knees!"I complied, movements slow. Behind the guards, shadows shifted—hulking shapes with too many limbs. Hybrid handlers, keeping their pets on short leashes. Ready."Clear!"The lab doors hissed open. Clinical light spilled out,

The drugs peeled back slowly, like skin from a wound.First came the cold—deep, medical cold that bit through the thin fabric they'd dressed me in. Then sound filtered in: the steady drip of an IV, the whisper of ventilation, the soft beep of monitors counting heartbeats I couldn't control. My tongue felt swollen, coated in chemical chalk that tasted like artificial sleep.But the corruption in my arm... that burned like always. Black veins pulsing beneath rotted flesh, sending waves of fever-heat through my blood. Without Rona's presence to buffer it, the sensation was raw, unfiltered. Like touching a live wire with bare hands.I tried to move. Leather straps bit into my wrists and ankles, another across my chest. The table beneath me was steel, its chill seeping into my spine. My head throbbed where they'd struck me. How long had I been out?"I know you're awake." Veronica's voice cut through the haze. "Your heart rate changed three minutes ago."I forced my eyes open. The lab swam

Whatever Veronica had injected me with set my blood on fire.I arched against the restraints, a scream lodging in my throat as heat raced through my veins. The corruption in my arm pulsed violently, black lines spreading like cracks in glass. But instead of consuming more flesh, they seemed to be... shifting. Rearranging themselves into patterns I almost recognized."Fascinating." Veronica's voice drifted through the haze of pain. "Look how it responds. The molecular structure is actually stabilizing.""What—" I choked out, "what did you give me?""Just a catalyst." She leaned over me, studying the corruption's movement. "Something to wake up what's already there." Her fingers traced one of the newly formed patterns. "Your mother's work was brilliant, but crude. She didn't have the resources to perfect it. To understand what she'd created."The burning began to fade, leaving behind an odd numbness. Where the corruption had spread, my skin felt different. Harder. Like armor growing ben

Alarms blared through the hallways as red emergency lights flashed. I ran barefoot on the cold tile floor, the hospital gown providing little coverage. My bruised thighs were exposed with each step. The corruption in my arm ache painfully, the black veins visible under my sweaty skin.I didn't know where I was going. The drugs still fogged my head, turning the facility's endless corridors into a labyrinth. Distant screams echoed off the walls—some human, some not. Something had gone very wrong here. But for me, it was a chance.A chance to escape.The hallway seemed to stretch on forever, each turn revealing only more flickering lights and closed doors. My lungs burned with every ragged breath, the metallic taste of fear coating my tongue. Behind me, the sounds of pursuit grew louder - heavy boots pounding against tile, angry voices barking orders.They were getting closer.Panic clawed at my throat as I pushed myself harder, bare feet slapping against the cold floor. The hospital gow

The cell reeked of fear and desperation. I paced the small space, ignoring the throb of my wounds, the pull of the poison still running through my veins. None of it mattered. Not when Stella was out there, alone and hunted.Angela watched me from the other side of the bars, her eyes glittering with a sick sort of amusement. "You're wasting your energy," she said, her voice a mocking purr. "She's exactly where she needs to be."I lunged at the bars, snarling. "If they hurt her, I swear I'll—""You'll what?" Angela laughed. "Bleed on me? Face it, Silas. You're useless like this. Weak and Pathetic."I growled, but the truth of her words stung like silver. Without my wolf, I was just a man. A broken, beaten man.Angela leaned closer, her breath hot on my face. "But Stella... she's strong. Special. And not just because of the corruption.""What are you talking about?"She smiled, sharp and hungry. "Our mother's little experiment. The ritual that saved Stella's life? It made her everything

"Mum."The word hung in the air like a grenade with its pin pulled. No one moved. No one breathed. The alarms seemed to fade to background noise as we all stared at the small boy crumpled at the bottom of the tank, his hand pressed against the glass, eyes fixed on Veronica.His lips formed the word again. "Mum."My grip on Veronica's throat loosened from pure shock. Her son? This was her fucking son?The moment my fingers relaxed, the boy's body convulsed. His back arched unnaturally, spine bowing as if something inside was trying to tear free. His mouth opened, he was screaming, one we couldn’t hear due to the glass. His eyes rolled back until only whites showed."Alexander!" Veronica surged forward, breaking free from my grip completely. I was too stunned to stop her. She slammed her palm against the tank's release mechanism, and the glass partition hissed open. She dropped to her knees, gathering the small, trembling body into her arms."He's dying," she choked out, cradling him ag

The elders agreed to my terms, of course. What choice did they have? Silas would die without the ritual, and the pack needed both of us.The ceremony room was deep beneath the pack house, a circular chamber carved from bedrock, walls decorated with ancient symbols of the Moon Goddess. Moonlight filtered in through a shaft in the ceiling, illuminating a raised stone platform in the center. Behind it stood a carved altar bearing ceremonial knives, bowls, and herbs.Zeta Clara, the oldest of the pack elders, supervised the preparations. Pack members laid Silas on the platform, his body covered only by a thin sheet. The black poison lines stood out starkly against his pale skin, like veins of obsidian beneath the surface. I could see how they pulsed with each labored heartbeat."You understand what this ritual entails?" Zeta Clara asked me as I changed into the simple white shift they'd provided."Bella explained it.""Not just physically," she pressed. "Spiritually. Emotionally. You will

Three days. Three fucking days, and Silas hadn't opened his eyes.I hadn't left his side except to piss or when Zeta Ruth forced me to eat something. The room stank of sickness, silver poisoning, and my own unwashed body. Dark circles tattooed themselves under my eyes. I didn't care."His temperature's rising again," Zeta Ruth said, checking the digital thermometer. "103.8."The pack's head healer looked as exhausted as I felt. She'd been working around the clock, trying every treatment in the book and some that weren't. Nothing touched the silver poisoning. The black lines had spread across his entire torso now, up his neck, down his arms. Some had reached his face, thin dark veins like cracks in porcelain."More ice," she instructed her assistant, who hurried off to fetch it. She turned to me. "You need to rest, Stella. You're not helping him by making yourself sick.""I'm fine," I said for the thousandth time.She sighed but didn't argue. Smart woman.The door opened, and Bella wad

I couldn't wait any longer. I reached for that building pressure inside me and PUSHED, just as Rona had suggested.BOOM!The power exploded outward from my chest, following the paths of the needles and tubes. The burning silver became a conduit rather than a barrier. The black lines on my skin brightened to silver-white, spreading rapidly across my entire body."What the—" Logan began, but was cut off as the tubes connected to me burst, spraying blood in all directions.The restraints holding me shattered as the power wave hit them. I sat up, ripping the remaining needles from my body. Each extraction point sealed itself instantly, the white-silver lines on my skin concentrating around the wounds."Stop her!" Logan shouted.The human woman backed away, terror in her eyes. Angela rose from her chair, shifting as she moved. Her pregnant form distorted the shift, making it slower, awkward. Logan reached for something under the console—a weapon, probably.I couldn't worry about them. I tu

She smiled, a cold expression that reminded me of our father. "I made sure you and Silas never completed your mate bond. I made sure you ran. I arranged everything."A chill ran through me. "What?""The attack five years ago," she said, her voice matter-of-fact. "I arranged it. Aaron, Marcus, Jacob—they were all following my suggestion. 'Teach the wolfless bitch a lesson,' I told them. 'Show her what happens to omegas.'"My vision blurred with rage. Five years of nightmares, of trauma, of struggling to survive—all because my sister orchestrated my assault?"You fucking bitch," I snarled, thrashing against the restraints. "You set me up to be raped?""I set you up to be scared off," she corrected, unperturbed by my rage. "The rape wasn't the plan. That was the boys getting carried away. But your leaving was exactly what I wanted. You were supposed to die in the woods, vulnerable and alone. No one expected you to survive, much less thrive.""Why?" I demanded. "What did I ever do to you?

I'd heard enough. I needed to see what I was dealing with before bursting in. Near the ceiling was a ventilation grate. I jumped, grabbed the edge, and pulled myself up. The metal groaned under my weight but held. I peered through the slats.The room beyond was larger than the others, clearly the main lab. Scientific equipment lined the walls—centrifuges, computers, machines I didn't recognize. In the center was a metal table, and strapped to it was Silas.My breath caught in my throat. He was naked except for a cloth draped over his hips, his body covered in fresh cuts and burns. Silver-infused needles pierced his arms and chest, connected to tubes that ran to collection bags hanging beside the table. The bags were already half-filled with dark red blood.Logan stood at a workstation, examining something on a computer screen. He'd removed his suit jacket and rolled up his sleeves, looking like a fucking corporate exec taking a casual Friday. Angela sat in a chair nearby, one hand res

I didn't go back to the pack house. There wasn't time.The fading scent trail led northeast, toward the old industrial district. I followed it at a dead run, not bothering with stealth. Logan had given me twelve hours, but the silver-laced blade he'd pressed against Silas's throat would still be burning, still be poisoning him. Every minute counted.That tiny thread of our broken bond pulled me forward like a compass needle. I could feel Silas's pain—distant, muffled, but there. It had surprised the hell out of me when our bond snapped partially back during the attack. Five years of nothing, and now this. Fucking inconvenient timing.I stuck to the woods when I could, avoiding the roads where someone might spot a blood-covered woman sprinting through the night. The last thing I needed was human interference. Luckily, at three in the morning, even the occasional passing car didn't slow down.The industrial district loomed ahead, a collection of abandoned warehouses and factories that h

The tunnel was narrow, barely wide enough for two wolves to walk side by side. The walls were rough-hewn stone, occasionally reinforced with rotting timber supports. Water dripped somewhere in the distance, and the air smelled of damp earth and mold. And blood. Fresh blood.We found the first body about fifty yards in—a young pack member named David. I'd seen him at training sessions, eager to please, always trying to impress the older wolves. Now his throat was torn out, his eyes staring sightlessly at the tunnel ceiling. He couldn't have been more than eighteen.Liam made a pained sound beside the body. I placed a hand on his trembling shoulder."We keep moving," I said, my voice harder than I intended. "We'll come back for him after."The tunnel forked ahead, splitting into three separate passages. I closed my eyes, focusing on my senses. The smell of chemicals and wrongness was stronger in the center tunnel."This way," I said, pointing.We moved deeper, the ceiling growing lower

Screams tore through the darkness, yanking me from sleep.Not nightmare screams—I knew those too well by now—but real ones. The wet, gurgling kind that meant someone was dying, and they were close. Too close.My limbs wouldn't fucking move. Heart pounding, lungs burning, but I couldn't even lift a finger. Couldn't blink. Sweat soaked the sheets under me while the screams got louder.Get up.Rona's voice cut through the fog in my head.GET UP NOW.Spots clouded my vision. I realized I hadn't breathed since the screams started. My lungs hurt.STELLA!I finally gasped for air, my body responding at last. I fell off the bed, shoulder hitting the floor hard. The pain shocked me alert. Adrenaline kicked in, my hand shaking as I grabbed the wall and pulled myself up.More screams, now closer, and beneath them a sound from below—stone grinding against stone. The tunnels. Someone was coming through the tunnels.I took one step toward the door, then my brain fractured. The hardwood under my fee

The hours before sunset passed in a blur of preparations. After Silas left to investigate the tunnel entrance, I forced myself to eat, knowing I'd need my strength for whatever came tonight. My body still ached from the wolfsbane withdrawal, muscles trembling occasionally as the last traces worked their way out of my system.I had just finished showering when a hesitant knock sounded at my door. I opened it to find a teenage girl, maybe sixteen, shifting nervously from foot to foot."Alpha Morrigan asked if you could come to the training hall," she said, eyes downcast. "Some of the younger wolves want to try shifting before..." She swallowed hard. "Before tonight."My first instinct was to refuse. These weren't my problems. This wasn't my pack. But the fear in the girl's eyes struck something in me—the memory of my own desperation to shift, years of failure and humiliation."Fine," I said. "Give me five minutes."The training hall was in the east wing of the pack house, a large open s
