The next day couldn't come fast enough. I spent the majority of the nights awake. And waiting at the first light of dawn, I climb down from my bamboo bed and grabbed my bathing supplies. The omega quarter didn't have bathrooms. We were only allowed to use the cold streams for a bath. It was still very early and only a few people moved around.

I walked quickly in the direction of the stream. As soon as I was there I dropped my clean clothes and stripped naked. The cold air pinched through my skin and I shivered. I slowly descended into the cold water and I gritted my teeth.

What I would give to be able to take a hot bath. The other wolves probably didn't understand how lucky they were to have proper beds and hot baths while the omega was forced to sleep on the hard floor or bamboo beds and to have cold baths.

Hopefully, things would get better for me as the mate of the beta, I'll try to make sure omega's at least enjoyed some of these things.

I quickly scrubbed my skin and when I was clean, I climbed out and dried myself. I put on the clothes I had had for a while now which was my best dress ever, It was a white floral dress and it belonged to my late mum. It was also her most cherished dress because it had been given to her by her mother.

She gave it to me after I turned eighteen and I've been keeping it for a special occasion. I finally got a chance to wear it. so when Darren comes to pick me up from the crowd, I would be in a nice dress like the other females and not In the faded dull clothes I usually wore.

I tried to tie the back of my dress as tight as I could and I combed through my hair with my fingers. But they were tangled so I would have to get a brush from Tiana. I walked away from the stream and towards the pack house. just a few feet away from the house I saw Darren.

"Beta Darren" I yelled out

I couldn't call him by his name in public. He turned in my direction and I noticed he was with the alpha, the alpha's face was filled with disgust and hate as he looked at me and I cowered. Darren mumble something to him and they both walked away completely ignoring me. Maybe he is busy. I tried to make excuses, he had never ignored me before. I turned away and left. I continued to Tiana's room to get a brush from her.

When I got there, I met her door opened and her other friend Alma, was inside, a red-haired woman that hated omegas.

They noticed a presence at the door and turned to look at me.

"I can come back later". I said immediately and turned around to leave but Tiana stopped me

"Alma was just leaving now." Alma scuffed and stormed out, hitting my shoulder roughly. I bit in a wince and moved close to Tiana.

" you hardly come here, is something wrong?"

I shook my head

"I wanted to borrow a hairbrush, I have tangles" I replied

"Sure, here let me do it for you" she replied

I walked over to the dressing mirror and took a sit as she brushed through my hair. I smiled at my reflection. I didn't always get to see it in such a clear mirror like this.

" you look so pretty today," she said

" I do?"

" of course" she replied almost immediately.

"Your dress is so pretty too and unique. It's so beautiful she said while trying to pack my hair in a bun. I chuckled and gave her a warm smile

"It belonged to my mother, and I wore it because of this special occasion "

" is it because of this mating ceremony," she asked and I nodded excitedly.

"I wanted to look beautiful at least for one day". she chuckled.

" Good idea, will you wait for me while I get dressed?" She asked and I nodded.

She entered her bathroom and after a long while she appeared in a short towel. She applied a very nice scented body lotion all over her body and went to get her dress. It was a yellow silk dress that accentuated her curves. My dress looks pale compared to her elegant dress and for a moment I felt envious. I wish I could have something like that I thought.

She finished getting ready and was trying to get her hair in order when we heard a howl. It was time. My heart skipped a bit and I was so excited. She was finally done and we were ready to go.

I walked beside her as we made our way to the training field. The Alpha and Beta were yet to be seen.

"Who do you think the alpha will choose?" A girl behind me whispered,

"Who knows? I hope the beta chooses me" the other girl said. I wanted to snarl at her and tell her the beta belonged to me but I bit my tongue instead. That would be talking out of line and I could get punished for that. I shall only be allowed to talk when I was finally claimed.

"What are you doing here omega" somebody shouted in my direction and the wolves around focused on me.

"She's with me," Tiana said.

"Doesn't matter" The wolf said,

"Omegas belong at the back" he snarled.

“I'll go to the back," I said quietly

"No, she stays with me" Tiana held my hands tightly. The wolf stared at me for almost a minute and backed down. I don't want to get into any trouble, I told her.

"You won't" she replied.

"I want you to be with me today, today will be a memorable day for you" she smiled at me.

“Thank you" I smiled back. She knew how important today was going to be for me and was doing everything to make sure I was in a good position. We found a spot at the front. I was still together holding hands. The highest ranked wolves slowly came out to the front and the noise from the crowd slowly died until there was nothing but silence. My heart beats rapidly from excitement. I spotted Darren instantly. He had his back on us but I knew it was him.

He moved and I got a glimpse of his face. I guess someone said something funny because he chuckled and my heart fluttered. He was so handsome. He turned fully in my direction and I smiled at him but he just did a little wave and turned away.

Why was he acting so cold and ignoring me? We are okay and I haven't done anything to offend him. Was he stressed? Maybe it's stress. There was no other possible explanation for his attitude.

'or maybe he doesn't like you anymore’ my subconscious screamed but I blocked her out. She was always so negative about everything and I was beginning to think she was against me.

The alpha cleared his throat And his eyes traveled through the crowds.

"We're gathered today for the mating selection. Those who have selected mates must select them and present them to the pack. A few high-ranking wolves will also be selected today. we shall now begin" he announced and took a few steps back to his seat.

The Crowd shifted and got separated into two groups. Men and women. Tiana still managed to get us a spot at the front of the women's group. The men of the pack stood on the other side and at the sound of the howl, they moved to shift through the crowd of women to select their mates.

They bumped into me and I was pushed roughly but Tiana's tight grip kept me in place. I was grateful for her thoughtful actions. The men brought out their mates from the crowd and one by one, they presented them to the pack. The pack cheered for them. I was also happy for them.

They would finally be able to mate properly. I wish we didn't have to wait for years before the mating ceremony. The Gamma stood up and walked towards the crowd. Everyone has gone silent now. He moved through the crowd and came out with a beautiful girl.

I knew who she was and I had quite a few unpleasant encounters with her. He presented her to the pack and they cheered. Darren stood up and once again the crowd went silent. He looked in my direction and Tiana's hand tightened around mine.

I was shaking in anticipation and excitement. He walked powerfully towards me, his eyes never leaving mine. He was close enough and I reached out my hand to touch him but instead, he shifted to Tiana. The tight grip on my hand disappeared and I turned to look at them.

There was no surprise or shock on my face, I couldn't express or show any emotions because I couldn't express how I felt. Tiana was smiling widely as Darren held her hand and looked at her with...love?

    I was still frozen in shock just looking at her and wondering what was going on. Why were they smiling at each other? Why... Why?"Darren" I called weakly and his eyes snapped to mine. The cold fury directed at me caused my heart to break even further."How can you do this to me" I cried but they paid me no mind. He led her to the front of the crowd and the wolves cheered loudly behind me. I couldn't stand it. I was going to fall apart if I continued to stay here. I couldn't watch this. I pushed blindly through the crowd, tears spilling from my eyes.I heard footsteps running behind me but I pushed myself harder. Someone roughly grabbed my arms and forced me to stop. When I turned around, I saw Tiana. "How could you?” I broke down again."You...." "Enough" she cut me off sharply."I'm tired of your blabbering. I wanted Darren first""But he is mine. He was supposed to be mine""Not anymore. He belongs to me now. I told you I always get what I want" Her words from yesterday replayed

    Luckily, there were no guards at the border. With cautious steps, I approached the border and crossed over.The moment I did, I felt a snap in my guts. The tie has been cut off. I heard a loud howl and angry grunts and that pushed me.I ran quickly, my heart pounding in my chest and the muscles in my neck burning as I ran away. The growls of wolves running after me me pushed me. They would catch up with me soon and I’ll be dead meat. I suddenly regret running away from the pack. I should never have listened to Tata. I should have just kept my head down like I always did and ignored Darren and Tiana.Why did I have to risk my life like this.Another problem was the fact that I didn’t even know where I was going. I have never been out of the pack and I had no idea if I was running in the correct direction or into danger.I was now a rogue and there were a lot of packs that hated rogues and killed them on sight. I only hoped that I wouldn’t be unfortunate to stumble upon one.The path I

    My eyes slowly opened on their own. I was in an unfamiliar surrounding and my head was threatening to split into two from the pounding. I forced myself into a sitting position ignoring the throbbing in my head and I looked around. Silver bars surrounded me, locking me in a cell.I didn’t dare go close to the bars from the fear of pain. The smell of wet fur and decayed blood filled my senses and my stomach quivered. Memories from earlier filled my head. I had stumbled into the territory of the black heart pack before I was knocked out. The pack Sienna had warned me about.Shit Sienna. She asked me to get help for her. “Hey” I called out in a small voice but it was loud enough for any wolf within a three mile radius to hear me clearly.My call was responded to by snarls. Scary snarls that sounded close by and threatening.“We have to help Sienna” I called out again with a more steady voice. The snarls increased but I paid them no mind. Just as I opened my mouth to shout again, I heard

    ALPHA ROME’s POVI rolled out of bed ignoring the sleeping woman still in bed. After a long night of fucking she was too tired to move and passed out right away. I wouldn't sleep in the same bed with another, it didn't feel right. She muttered something under her breath and snuggled deeper into the pillows, her red hair covering her face. I couldn't even remember what her name was. I put on my pants and left the room. only a few omega's loitered the hallways and the moment they saw me, they scampered away. I wasn't going to hurt them for simply existing but they didn't know that and it was better we kept it that way. The fear they had for me made them stay in line and in check. I walked down the hallway and to my bedroom. The scent of the maid who must have cleaned it irritated my senses. I didn't like anyone being in my room, so I avoided it at all costs but the room has to be cleaned, the slaves were instructed to air out the room so their scent would be out before I return. My gu

    My body went cold at his words. He was going to kill me now. I looked everywhere but at him. None of the men uttered a single word. I looked at the bushes and thought of sprinting away. They would probably still be in shock and not be able to catch me."Don't think about it" he snapped at me.A few minutes later, the beta who asked me to get away was now standing in front of me. Recognition filled his eyes the moment he took in the sight of the alpha."Why is there a rogue on my land," he asked again. His voice was much deadlier and it was directed at the beta. "She was lost""That doesn't change the fact that she's a fucking rogue""She is harmless " the beta defended."Harmless? did you just refer to a rogue as harmless? You know the current situation with rogues and you were going to let one walk away freely from our land?""Without investigating her? Or letting me know?"The beta didn't respond."I'm disappointed Xander" Alpha spat at him. He nodded to the guards. "Take her to th

    My thought didn't go still even after Xander was gone. How could it? Those sparks were the best thing I've felt since the beginning of my existence. I just couldn't stop thinking about it for a second. The main door of the dungeon opened and I heard footsteps,a single pair this time. It was the other guard who was with the alpha earlier. His eyes were full of hate as he opened my cell. I moved in fear. Why was he here? It was obvious he hated me. Did they send him to kill me? He yanked me roughly from my position on the floor and pushed me outside. I caught myself before I could fall face-first on the ground. "Where are we going?" I asked in fear. He didn't respond to my question and only pushed me harder. My hip slammed into another cello bar and I groaned in pain. He didn't even acknowledge that or pause in his inhumane treatment. If anything, it gave him joy that I got hurt. He kept pushing me until we were outside the dungeon. There was no one in the hallway that I could ask fo

    The next morning came faster than I wanted it to. There was a loud clang from outside. Probably in the hallway but it sounded like it was next to my ear. The other girls hurried out to take their baths. I followed them and when I returned, I saw a dress on my bed. I quickly put it on and followed the girls out of the downstairs quarters. The kitchen was already bustling even though there was no sign of light outside. "Where's the new girl?" I heard Agnia's voice even before I saw her. She was dressed in a long blue shirt with leather pants and her hair was packed in a tight neat bun. I looked around and noticed it was the same as the other girls. She eyed me with disapproval. "Come with me" she instructed and I followed after that. We entered a small room with two chairs and a mirror on the wall. "This is your first day so you'll be excused. From tomorrow, you must come in here like other girls and do your hair properly before dawn" she commanded and packed my hair tightly. I wi

    I took Lucia’s advice and life became a whole lot better for me. A month passed quickly and I was still stuck with the same list Agnia had given me when I first started. The east wing, I dreaded going there every day but I had no choice. Turns out there were a lot of rooms that had been uncleaned for years and somehow, it was expected of me to clean them. In the last four weeks, Lucia had been changed twice. We didn’t talk much. Just a few words between us whenever we crossed paths. “Fuck” I groaned as my toe hit the edge of the bed. I cursed under my breath. I didn’t deserve this suffering at all. I dragged the bag of laundry out into the hallway and took the clean sheets inside to change the bedding and curtains. It was the last thing I had to do for the day and I could go for lunch and finally have some rest. I saw Lucia pack up and leave just as I heard voices. It was common for me to hear people talking here while I worked but it was very unusual for them to come to the rooms.

    Xander and WillWill’s PovI didn’t know how to feel about Xander but I was mostly upset with him. Yes, he had fucked up big time. But so had I. I asked for forgiveness and Frost had forgiven me. Rome had forgiven him too. He visited and asked him to return to the pack house as the beta but he refused. He would rather live like an outcast than become beta again. I didn’t like that he would want to wallow in self-pity, regretting his actions all the days of his life.‘Why are you with him?’ my wolf questioned. I liked him. I wanted something more with him. He said he wanted the same with me. But I didn’t know if I could be with him if he chose to never forgive himself for how he betrayed Alpha Rome.I continued on my way to Sileas's new residence.

I often wished it'll come sinner but I can't be faster than fates. Strong arms wrapped around me and touched my rounded belly. I leaned into the touch of my mate. His warm hand touching our child through my belly caused warmth to spread through me.Rome was more eager to see the baby than I was. If he had his way, then our baby would have been here months ago. He never failed to show how much he loved and adored our child. Always kissing and touching my swollen belly."I told you to stay in bed" he whispered in my ear before biting my lobes as a punishment for defying his orders."I can't stay in bed all day""It's good for you. You should have enough rest until our pup is here""It gets so boring. If only you spent it with me"He turned me around so we were facing each other and he kissed me deeply.

    The days got better but Rome's work didn't reduce in the slightest. I offered to help but he refused each time. I tried several times to bring up Xander's case but he dismissed it each time. It worried me to see the bags under his eyes."Are you listening to me at all?" I asked him with folded arms. "Yes. And I'm assuring you it's Omar. I can take care of it""You're barely getting any sleep""There's a lot to be done. I can't just leave it""I'm not asking you to leave it. I'm asking you to get help""I'm fine" he brushed me off."Whatever" I started getting annoyed with his stubbornness."Do whatever the fuck you want to do. It doesn't matter to me" I stomped off and he let me go.Since he wasn't going to be a hardhead and do all the work himself, I wasn't going to stop him or ask him not to work. He could work himself to death if he wants to.'You don't mean that' my wolf scowled. Of course, I don't. I would never wish him death but he was so frustrated, why won't he try to get he

    "My mother?" Sienna was confused."You know my mother?" Her voice was full of disbelief.I didn't think this was a great time to break the news to her. I caught movement in the doorway and I saw Agnia waiting to be called."Agnia" Rome called her from the doorway and she strode inside.I looked at Sienna to take in her reaction to the news. So many emotions crossed her face at the same time. Hurt, regret, disbelief and finally settled on anger."You're my mother?" She questioned."Yes my child" Agnia reached for her but she moved away quickly."You aren't dead? Or sick or anything. You're healthy and alive""Yes," Agnia cried."You left me" sienna's tone was accusing."All my life.....you never came to find me""I wanted to. Believe me, I really wanted to but I couldn't.

It was the toughest but in the end, I was here with my mate, and a pup growing inside of me.I caressed my stomach gently, there was no bump yet but in the next couple of months, the child will arrive. I couldn't wait to hold my pup in my arms.Rough palms covered my palm on my stomach. I looked behind me and I was key with the intense eyes of my mate."My love" his voice was husky and it sent a drag wave of weakness between my legs.I loved hearing that from his mouth. He grinned and kissed me deeply, turning me over until we were facing each other."You look beautiful this morning" he complimented but I rolled my eyes. I'm certain I looked like a mess.He ran his plan lazily over my stomach."I can't wait

    He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the hall towards his office. We kept kissing, his free hand trying at every opportunity to touch any part of me. He opened his office door and dragged me in gently, slamming the door shut behind us. He pressed against me and I could feel his cock pressed up on my lower belly. I was writhing in anticipation. He kissed my neck, sucking on the skin. His hand stretched over my back in an attempt to pull down the zipper of my dress.He stopped and turned me around, easily pulling the zipper down all the way. He ran his fingers along the length of my back and a shiver traveled up my spine.I was so eager, pulling my hands out from my dress and it fell to the floor. I couldn't wait any more seconds. I turned around, facing him now. I went in for another kiss.He stopped kissing me for a moment and pulled back to look at my breasts. I heard his heavy breath before he plunged again into kissing and sucking at my skin. He continued downwards until his mou

    I was nervous as hell. No matter how many times I cleaned my palms, they still managed to be sweaty. I'd mentally prepared myself for today but now it was time, it didn't seem like I could do it. Today was the merger of the three packs. I was going to also be introduced publicly as the best blood wolf. Everyone wanted to meet me. So I have heard. I've not met with the other Alphas yet. Each time Rome want me to go with him, I came up with an excuse that I didn't want to leave the house. We didn't have to argue about that. Rome had been extra loving, doting on me and making sure I had whatever I wanted it. He was taking good care of me. I spent my days eating and reading and puking. Hormones. There was movement outside the door and voices. I tended. It wasn't Rome. He said he would come and get me when it was time. Or did he send another? He would get an earful from me if he did. There was a soft rap on the doors. "Come in" I called out and the door opened slowly. Jon was standing

    Rome left early. I had no idea what he wanted to take care of but it gave me a good opportunity to leave the room like I wanted. Ajax was guarding my door. "Luna" he bowed. "I'll like to see Xander" He scratched behind his ear. "I don't think that's a good idea. The Alpha...." "I'll handle him but I need to see Xander" His reluctance was clear and I couldn't blame him. "Now Ajax. You can either accompany me there or point me in the right direction" He hesitated but then he nodded. "Let's go" I walked behind him, pleased to be outside. Girls and guards bowed as I walked past. It wasn't a new thing but it felt different. Rome informed me that wounds had spread about how I defeated the rogues and everyone wanted to meet me. Including my new pack. I was nervous about it but he assured me, I had nothing to worry about and we could see them whenever I was ready. We arrived at a door. "He is inside Luna" I knocked twice on the door and I heard his voice before I pushed it open. "
