The Alpha's Caregiver 27. Make it two, two Scents.
CHAPTER 27–Make it two, two Scents. ALPHA REX“Are you sure we have the right place?” Logan and I have been out for days, working extra harder than we always have just because I needed to get to the root of the situation fast and get rid of the Omega. The thought of her left a brooding feeling inside of me. Even without meaning to, my thoughts would always drift over to her and then I would have to fight to replace it with something else. “Yes, I am certain this is the place. He owns the club.” Logan and I had just driven my car to a spot across from the said club. Its was heavily guarded by two hefty men and the music roaring from inside the club was loud enough to reach my ears from where I sat in my car. I snorted at the tacky name of the club brought to life by the green neon light thart flickered on and off. “When did this one open?” I asked, totally unaware of when a club opened up in my pack with a name taken out of the name of the pack itself. From a distance, I could sen
The Alpha's Caregiver 28.One hurdle at a time.
CHAPTER 28–One hurdle at a time. EUDORA. A piece of paper with some silly writing on it.It was all I was worth this time around. It was all it took for me to be tossed away again like I didn’t breathe the same air everyone else breathed. Like I wasn’t every hit as alive as them all. Zena betrayed me and left me to deal with dangerous men. The realization still caused a shuddering feeling to rock my spine at how stupid and naive I was. Stupid to think anyone stronger, anyone of higher rank would actually be my friend. The Rogues dragged me away from the busy part of the club and into a darker area where a door was opened and I was tossed into the room whose lights were also kept low and dim. I couldn’t put up a fight. Not anymore. There was not a time when I fought back and won. This moment was just like every other. It was just like every other thing I’d been through. I huddled in a corner of the room—the darkest. I couldn’t fight the men off but I could at least hold off my woe
The Alpha's Caregiver 29.Zena+Eudora=Friends.
CHAPTER 29–Zena+Eudora=Friends. EUDORA We didn’t stop running. We raced across rough terraces, biting shrubs and slippery grasses just the same way we did on paths that were as clear as day. Zena’s grip on my wrist was tight, her slim hand holding on to my plump ones like her life depended on it. In a way, it did. Both our lives depended on how far away from here we could get. The familiar path back home was dark and I had my own sharp eyesight to thank for how swiftly I missed dashing my feet on rocks along the way. Zena had no eye sight yet she was the one pulling me along, maneuvering her way through the obstacles bent on slowing us down. It only reminded me of how she’d read whatever was in that paper with her fingers and knew just what it was. She was a mixture of danger and fascination, both deadly thrills to man. Crazy how both things were responsible for us running for our lives. The fascination that made me follow her and the danger that was posed to me because of her.
The Alpha's Caregiver 30.Nothing but trouble.
CHAPTER 30–Nothing but trouble. ALPHA REXI didn’t know why I stood there and just let them run past me but what else could I have done? How fast could I have come to terms with the fact that my sister—might I add, who was very much blind—had been fighting off rogues while the Omega I thought I thought I had in check clung to her? How was anything supposed to make sense to me in that fleeting moment? Nothing made sense right from when I regained consciousness and was told an Omega was just across my room and I was the one who brought her back to my pack with me. Even now, as I sat on the couch in the room and watched as Logan beat the answer out of the two rogues bound on their knees in front of us, nothing still made sense. “Enough.” My words stopped another one of Logan’s punches on Tyron. His fist hung mid-air only for a second before he slowly brought it down and kicked Tyron forward. He landed just a few feet away from me, coughing up blood as he did. Tyron was a bloody mess
The Alpha's Caregiver 31.A Wet mess.
CHAPTER 31–A wet mess. EUDORAI ran right into a wall-like figure while making my way back to my room in the dark and it made me lose my footing. I braced myself for impact, clenching my eyes shut as if it would reduce the pain that was going to come with my butt hitting the floor—hard but it never happened. A hand had shot out to grip me by the wrist to stop me from making a mess of myself on the floor. Instinctively, my free hand landed on the wide plane of his chest, gripping onto the thin material of his shirt to further steady myself while I stared into a pair of silver eyes that were at their brightest in the dark and lonely corridor. They made my breath lodge itself in my throat, making the first few seconds of impact with him hard for me to breathe or think straight. The Alpha. “You.” One word from his lips and I came right to my senses. I jerked away from him like he was hot coal and he burned me badly. The movement made me lose my footing again and this time, there w
The Alpha's Caregiver 32.I was once like you.
CHAPTER 32–I was once like you.EUDORA. With slow and uncertain steps, I entered Lillian's room while she held me to herself. The old Gamma didn’t care that I was wet all over or that I could ruin her clothes. Even though I was cold from the rain that had mercilessly beaten me, her kind heart provided momentary warmth. It took my mind off Alpha Rex and everything else that has plagued me. I knew that those things weren’t easily forgettable, they would haunt me the moment I’m no longer in Lillian’s warm space but I lived for little moments like this and wanted them to happen often. If I could have at least five minutes of warmth in a day, I’d use the seconds found in each minute to fill up the rest of that day if it turns out cold and terrifying. Especially if it turns out cold. Ten seconds for when I come in contact with Alpha Rex and he seethes at me. Five seconds for when I sit at the table to eat with them. Ten seconds for when I am alone in my room. Lonely. Afraid for my fut
The Alpha's Caregiver 33.Just One more Week.
CHAPTER 33–Just one more week. ALPHA REXThe news of my appearance at the Banes Club spread like wildfire across the pack. Along with it was rumors of the presence of an Omega in the pack, the first in the last six years since I took over the pack. The rumor wasn’t anything I could avoid, unless I’d acted like myself and silenced everyone who had been present at the club. The rumors would only remain a rumor as no one could confront me. I didn’t think it wise to get more blood on my hands because of an Omega. It would be reckless to ruin the peace of my pack just because of her. More so, I would be getting rid of her soon. If there was any blood I’d be getting on my hands, it would be hers and if I didn’t have any justification to kill her before other than for being one of the species I hated the most because of the effect they had on me, I had one now. She knew too much already just by breaking my rules and going out of the house with Zena. About our parents. The Omega would be
The Alpha's Caregiver 34.Grounded!
CHAPTER 34–Grounded!EUDORAAsk him, she said! He won’t turn down a polite request, she said! The Alpha is just…a little different from others when it comes to expressing his feelings, she said! Why had I let Lillian push me into this?He’s different alright. Every other person, notably my bullies has said pricking me with a needle would cause me to deflate and float in the air like a balloon but Alpha Rex would be the first person to think flattening me into a book would be better. And what’s worse? I believed it because I knew it wasn’t just any threat. I have seen firsthand what the Alpha was like(well his alter ego as Lillian barely explained but it doesn’t change anything). I’ve seen what he was capable of doing and I wanted no part of it. I wiped the tears from the corner of my eyes, making sure to hear the usual bang of the door to his room before I slowly raised my head to return back to the table where I’d been eating. I already lost my appetite but I also knew better tha

The Alpha's Caregiver END-HER DESTINY
EUDORAI couldn’t sleep that night. And because I couldn’t sleep, nightmares didn’t come and because they didn’t come, I didn’t feel Alpha Rex’s warmth. I must be stupid, to still want his touch and attention after what he had done and my wolf seemed to be rejoicing triumphantly while I was in deep pain and hurt. Was I wrong about the whole situation between me and Alpha Rex? Was I being delusional all these while? How could he just switch from cold to hot and then from hot, back to cold again. His words cut so deep inside of me that I buried my face into my pillow and cried until I couldn’t anymore. He called me pathetic. He said I was worth nothing but a tool for men’s pleasure. He has never called me names. Never said such hurtful words to me and I just couldn’t tell what changed. It got worse when I saw Leticia in his room, on his bed. She had showed up out of nowhere after so long and he still let her on his bed. He made me leave the room for her and I couldn’t tell what hu
The Alpha's Caregiver 183-The first Pure Blood
ZENA “You’re going to get me in big trouble one day.” Logan said as we both snuck out of the house through the secret back door that I’ve always used. Just this time, I wasn’t sneaking out of the house entirely. I wish I could roll my eyes at him and how dramatic he was being. “Keep your voice down.” I warned as we both walked towards the greenhouse. It was late at night, really late. I made sure everyone was sound asleep before I found Logan, woke him and dragged him down here with me. I almost didn’t make it out here because for some reason, Rex chose to sleep in the living room today but I had to find a way somehow. It’s been days since me and Logan went in search of my mother and I’ve been trying hard to keep things low so I don’t draw Rex’s attention. Not like he cared much anyway. He seems to be even more preoccupied with Eudora these days. Something was going on but I’ve been too caught up in my own world to care. Logan continued to grumble as I led the way to the gree
The Alpha's Caregiver 182-At all Costs.
ALPHA REXThe situation I met when I followed Logan back to the house wasn’t exactly the way he described it. Saying Leticia was dead drunk and didn’t want to leave was putting it mildly. She was making a huge scene in front of the house and my men were trying hard to keep her from coming in. I didn’t know how she managed to escape the morons at the borders when she didn’t even seem like she could stand on her own. I watched from a distance first as she fought off the men who were trying their best and failing miserably not to handle her with force. Her hair was disheveled, her make up ruined and her feet were naked. In all, she looked a total mess. She was nothing like the calm and composed woman who left a few weeks ago, accepting the fact that there was no place for her in my life no matter how hard we try to make it work. Leticia had handled our parting pretty well. I had driven her out of the pack myself, asked where she would want to go since she detested her twisted father
The Alpha's Caregiver 181-The Whining of a Weakling
EUDORAAlpha Rex wasn’t joking when he said he was going to train me to figure out what else I was capable of. I had no idea why he believed there was something about me that needed to be harnessed and he didn’t seem like he planned on letting me know too. I didn’t know how else I could let him know that there was nothing special about me. I was ordinary. I’ve been that way all of life and people have reminded me repeatedly and I believe nothing has changed. The cut he made on my palm took days to heal. It didn’t make sense how my blood was instantly able to heal a cut on Alpha Rex’s wrist while I was doomed to go about with a bandaid on my palm. I ignored the fact that it healed his own injury and focused on the fact that all in all, I was still an Omega and whatever that blood stunt was doesn’t count. I kept denying that I was something more than an Omega but I could only tell myself that because Alpha Rex was past caring or listening. I’ve been training rigorously in the past
The Alpha's Caregiver 180-A Bigger Destiny
EUDORAI opened my eyes and they met with an unfamiliar ceiling. I could tell that was neither my room nor Alpha Rex’s room from the dark and sombre shade of the ceiling. There was something depressing about its colour that made my chest tight and my heart ache. Waking up to this kind of ceiling everyday would have to be the most terrible fate ever and I desperately wanted it to disappear. Since I was laying on my back, I decided to roll on my sides so I can have a less depressing view. I rolled on my left side but it did not give me the result I expected.Instead, it shocked me so much that I sat up quickly on the bed I’d been laying on as I realised that the ceiling wasn’t the only strange thing about where I had suddenly woken up. The bed I was on was only one out of the many beds arranged in rows in a narrow room. The beds were so tiny and the room too small for them so that it felt like the walls were closing in on me. Where in the world was I? Why did it feel so strange and
The Alpha's Caregiver 179-A Crazy Turn
EUDORA“Woah.” Logan. He’s been having a field day with my hair ever since Alpha Rex left and put him in charge of looking after me. Now, it appears he is doing more of looking at me than actually looking after me. He doesn’t hide how stunned he is by my hair and he does it in a way that doesn't make me uncomfortable, no. I couldn’t tell if this new found confidence in my hair was because of the way Alpha Rex kisses it and tells me it is beautiful every chance he gets but it felt good and the attention it draws from Logan was just too amusing for me to feel less of myself. Well, that and the fact that he doesn’t seem to believe that I was born this way. It was almost hilarious. When he first saw me this morning, he hadn't really taken notice. He just passed by me saying, “Nice hair.” and then stopped halfway to the kitchen only to turn back and look at me with eyes as wide as saucers. I’d laughed but Alpha Rex didn’t seem to like the way Logan was looking at me and told him to
The Alpha's Caregiver 178-The Greater Hell
ALPHA REXI shattered completely. My vision slightly blurred while my grip on the frame got hard enough to actually break it into two. Number 7. It’s embroidered on her chest, big, red and brighter than her entire appearance in the photo. She was young. Pale. And her eyes, pained.“Your father and I had an agreement. That no one should ever know that she became his Luna. That no one knows your mother’s past, including you.” He continued to speak but I could barely hear him above the roaring of blood in my ears. She was all I saw. All of my memories of her–good and bad–tainted one after the other by what I am learning about her now. How had she felt? What were her days and waking moments like? How had she survived? How much pain was she in? Did she wish to die? Did she try to?“I do not know why the rogue sent such a warning to me. Why he asked me to tell you the truth about Lunita but I am afraid that your dead mother might be in some way related to the disappearance of the Omegas,
The Alpha's Caregiver 177-One of the Omegas
ALPHA REX'S POVWeak. She makes me weak. Even when she’s been unashamedly gone for so darn long and I have learnt to move on from the pain of her keeping me in the dark even after I gave her another chance, my mother still makes me weak. The weakness she stirs inside of me can be the only reason I regarded Alpha Raule with my attention despite how much I despise him. The weakness she instilled in me can be the only reason I agreed to go back with him to his pack with him so I could learn this truth he speaks of. This tale about my mother that I have craved for so long to know about and the one he claims that I can only understand if I come with him to his pack. Of course, I asked questions. Questions of how someone like him knew anything about my mother. For a promise to help him, he traded my silence till we got to his pack and I didn’t ask anymore questions after that. There was no need to as long as the truth he was trading for my help was worth it. I left with him reluctantly
The Alpha's Caregiver 176-The Confession.
ZENA*A FEW HOURS EARLIER*( In the same Timeline as Alpha Rex’s encounter with the rogue) “You’ve got to stop doing that.” Logan said, no doubt referring to me shifting and ruining my clothes in the process. I had just walked out of the corner where I’d been changing into the new set of clothing Logan managed to get after I ruined the last ones by shifting and jumping to attack our stalker who is now waiting at my behest, after saying the words that had me stunned for more than a few minutes until Logan lifted me off the man. Logan didn’t seem pleased about a lot of things but him having to run around to get me new clothes seemed to top his annoyance chart. I sidestepped him, more concerned about the man who claimed to know my mother than I was about my situationship with Logan at the present moment. He didn’t argue, he just fell into step beside me.“Where is he?” I asked, now fully dressed and heading back to the alley where I had attacked the man. We were already at the entran
