All Chapters of Omega's Rise: From Rejected Mate to Savior: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Gwen’s POVBack and forth across my room, I paced, a jumbled mess of thoughts in my head. I had been desperately awaiting Alpha Blake's return, knowing that his visit to the seer could hold the key to understanding strange happenings within the pack. When one of the guards finally relayed that Alpha Blake had returned, I wasted no time. She rushed to Alpha Blake’s room, my heart was racing with hope and fear.The night was quiet with the moon shining brightly above, its rays a silver, glamour cast across the lands. I moved swiftly down corridors with my steps quick and determined. I needed to see Alpha Blake and hear what the seer had revealed. At his door, I did hesitate before knocking softly."Alpha Blake, it's Gwen. Can I come in?" I said, my voice barely audible.There was a slight pause before I heard Alpha Blake's tired voice from the other side. "Come in, Gwen."By the time I entered the room, Alpha Blake was undressing. His jacket was already off, and he was unbuttoning h

Gwen's POV I looked around as I was surrounded by darkness, I quickly crouched behind the large couch that was in the corner of the room as darkness enveloped me. The fabric used on the couch brushed against my skin as I pressed myself further into the shadows without a noise and shallow and silent breathing. I squeezed my chest as the pounding of my heart echoed so loud, I could hear it in my ears and feared it might give me away. I brought my knees to my chest and hugged them, I could feel every muscle tense with the possibility of the ability to spring if necessary. Through the soft glow of the moonlight that crept through the thin curtains, I could see some areas as they cast faint patterns everywhere. I placed my head on my knees as I strained my ears for any sound or movements of someone or something or just even a sign of someone walking into the room. After a while, I looked up and I saw something with the help of the faint silver rays of light which came through from the w

Gwen’s POVBy the time I had just managed to get back to my room, I was hit with exhaustion like a tidal wave. I was treading very carefully, and my heart raced to each creak of the floorboards beneath my feet. I had seen something she should not have, that creature emerging into Nora and such a sight, was enough to shake me to my core. The urge to share my discovery with Alpha Blake had taken me that far, but now, alone in my room, the full weight of what I had seen crashed down on me.I locked the door behind me and leaned against it, fighting to regulate my breathing, as I kept taking deep breaths. My mind replayed the scene from that nightmare, the creature's grotesqueness taking form into Nora's figure. It was vivid, detailed, and haunting. I shivered and wrapped my arms around myself, a futile attempt to ward off the chill that seemed to seep into the very marrow of my bones.I stood there for some moments, trying to get a clear head about everything. The betrayal, the dark

Author's POV After breakfast, Gwen has spent the rest of the day in a deep thick cloud of moodiness that could be cut with a knife. She was enveloped and wrapped in it, replacing her usual cheerful self with an unsettling, deep eerie silence and feelings that left everyone in the house on edge. She was so unusual as she moved around the pack house like a ghost whose eyes were distant, unfocused, and lost. Her attitude was noticed by all, her maids worried for her sake, exchanging glances behind her back. The once reachable Lady who would engage with them in her usual chattering attitude with a warm smile and kind words was the one they couldn't reach out to as they couldn't get to her. She seemed to have locked them away and left herself in her own troubled thoughts. They had tried approaching her and conversing like they normally do, they had questions and suggestions but what did Gwen do? She snapped at them in an uncharacteristic sharp tone. “Can't you read the room? Leave me

Gwen's POV I took a deep breath and looked away then turned back when I saw Nora snickering at me as she narrowed her eyes and watched me with disdain. “I have had enough of this, can you just get out of my way!" She sneered at me, I could feel the contempt dripping in her voice. Does she hate me that much? “You can go easy on the look!" I said quickly, still trying to get my voice back. “My day is already ruined by you crossing my path and forever standing in my way! Get the hell out of my face!" She yelled which startled me. She loved the expression and reaction she got from me but there is nothing I can do about that. She should enjoy the feeling and satisfaction of being mean to me. I was already shaken by everything so I gladly allowed myself to be ridiculed by her. But one thing I wasn't going to do was back down even if my heart was racing out of me. What I had seen and gone through was enough to make me brave enough to not cower or run away whenever Nora tried to intimida
