All Chapters of The Unclaimed Omega: My Alpha is a Nightmare : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

River ~~ Echo's eyes narrowed into slits as she sat on the table, her gaze traveling between River and Rain. "Well, well, River," she whistled, "who's the little unwanted addition you brought to my pack?" A little unwanted addition? Rain? How dare Echo call her daughter that? Rain was far from being unwanted. Rain was the most loved and wanted child in the world but what would Echo know about love? Instead of getting pissed at her offensive remarks, she might as well pity the stone-hearted ill-mannered bitch Echo had become. Tch. It was such a shame. She used to be the best big sister in the world. “She is none of your business, Echo," she snapped, hoping she was stern enough to make Echo back off. Echo scoffed, not in the least bit intimidated by River’s tone. Instead, a harsh laugh escaped her lips. "Everything in this pack is my business, River. Don't you forget it. I OWN this pack.” How dare Echo tells her she owned the pack when it is a clear custom that only the childre

River flinched at Annemarie's voice which briefly startled from her contemplation. She looked up at the old woman who did not need a walking stick to walk perfectly. "You can be anything you wish to be, River," Annemarie repeated. "And you are more than strong enough to be a leader. You just need... practice."Would practice make people change their minds about the girl they had condemned and believed to be frail? Would it make them see her as more?Make them believe that she was more?Annemarie held out a worn leather-bound book that had a surface etched with swirling symbols that seemed to shimmer with an otherworldly glow. An aura of power emanated from it that gave her the heebie jeebies. "This," Annemarie continued, "contains all the spells you need to familiarize yourself with. With this book, River, you can be anything you want to be."River stared at the book, mesmerized by the cryptic symbols and the power it seemed to radiate. Uncertainty nibbled at her. Was she tru

River, who had been. caught in the throes of a passion she thought was long extinguished, clung to him. Her body became a vessel yearning for his forbidden touch. The spell book lay forgotten on the forest floor, making River wonder if its magic could ever rival the one she and Gonzalo were currently making.Gonzalo, who was fueled by sheer arousal lifted her off the ground. Her legs instinctively wrapped around his waist, her body molding against his hard frame. He carried her deeper into the woods and she let him.Like hell, they needed to stay closer to the pack to avoid encountering trouble. But what trouble could she possibly be in right now other than the one she and Gonzalo were brewing? The rustling of the leaves as he made his way deeper was a mere whisper compared to the tempest raging within them.They found themselves in a secluded clearing soaked in moonlight. Here, under the watchful gaze of the stars, Gonzalo lay her on a bed of soft moss and collapsed beside her. No

River gritted her teeth, telling herself to play it cool and smart. “This isn't your concern, Alpha," she spat, reclaiming a pinch of control as she pushed past him. "My business is mine." He chuckled amusingly, a corner of his mouth stretching up like a body of jelly. His chuckle made such a deep sound that sent goosebumps erupting across her skin. "Isn't it?" he countered. He gestured to the shredded remains of his clothing scattered around them. "Seems like everything here tonight is somehow intertwined, wouldn't you agree, pequeña?" Heat flooded her cheeks. She understood his words and gestures. “Don't call me that," she snapped, hating how easily his pet name could disarm her. Gonzalo chuckled and every time he did, it seemed to send shivers down her spine despite her best efforts. "Touchy, are we?" he teased. "Then perhaps I should call you something else... like 'my mate'?" Argh. There was no end to his insolence! Gonzalo was probably used to getting what he wanted but she

Talking to Gonzalo about sensual matters would not help things. What they might do instead was to ruin it further. Hence, she probably should do herself some favor and swerve the course of the conversation away from that point.Back to the matter arising; She hadn't expected him to offer to help her achieve her goal. But why? What was in it for him?"Why?" she blurted out, suspicion evident in her voice. "You spent years praising Echo's reign. Why the sudden change of heart? Why would you now want to help someone who wishes to overthrow that reign you so much admired?”He grimaced, and noiselessly chew on his bottom lip for a few seconds. "Echo has changed, River. Yes, I used to admire her reign but not anymore. Her methods have become… questionable, to say the least. The pack deserves better than an iron fist or an Alpha who doesn't address problems at their roots. She knows what to do to send these rogues away from her territory for good, but she wouldn't.” He ran a hand th
