All Chapters of The Weak Omega's Redemption: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

As the guard pushed Lucas and me back inside the cell, the hefty clang of the door reverberated like a death knell. The sound of the latch clicking shut made my breath catch as I fell and landed against the wet wall.I whirled toward the guard and growled, "You said we were free to go."His face was hidden by the faint torchlight as he sneered. "Free? The Alpha never said that. He stated you were still being watched. This is part of it." He turned and marched down the hallway, his boots resounding against the stone floor, without saying another word.My chest boiled with rage as I let out a harsh breath. Being watched? Under lock and key, more precisely."Lucas took his seat on the narrow bench and leaned back as if the cell were a throne rather than a cage. "Calm down, Lia. It’s better to being put to death right away."I paced the length of the cell and mumbled, "That’s not saying much." With each step, the walls felt like they were closing in on me, and I could still feel the press

The Alpha's call felt like a stone pressing down on my chest. Every muscle in my body clenched, but I kept a neutral expression as the guards led me out of the prison, their footsteps resounding menacingly. I couldn't afford to make a mistake. Not right now. Not with Lia—Anna—relying on me.When we reached the council chamber, the Alpha was sitting at the head of the room, and the big oak doors creaked open. His penetrating amber eyes gleamed with an unnerving intensity as the flickering firelight formed long shadows."Caleb," he stated in a soft yet commanding voice. "Enter now."I forced myself to take steady steps as I moved forward. "Alpha," I said, keeping a polite but forceful tone.He pointed to a chair on the other side. "Take a seat."After a short moment of hesitation, I complied and lowered myself onto the chair. The presence of the soldiers at the door acted as a silent reminder of the danger.With his arms resting on the table and his fingers steepled, the Alpha leaned fo

The hallway echoed with the sound of boots, getting louder with every step. I signaled Anna to keep quiet by putting a finger to my lips. My senses were awake, and my heart was racing. They were not here to bring good news, whatever was coming.Just outside our cell, the steps came to a stop, and the silence was broken by a voice we knew."Well, well. If it isn't our favorite rogues," Dax said condescendingly, but with a hint of laughter. "I bet you didn't think I would be here tonight."Despite the anger that was building inside of me, I kept my face neutral as I walked closer to the bars. "Dax. We owe the pleasure to what?"His face was lit by the dim glow of the candle he was holding as he leaned against the bars. "I simply couldn't help myself. You see, we don't have visitors like you two very often, especially those with a lot of secrets."Anna moved behind me, her back straight. "Dax, what do you want?"His amused eyes glinted as he grinned. "Oh, don't worry, my love. I'm not he

Only the creak of the dungeon walls occasionally disturbed the suffocating silence that had fallen upon us like a dense fog. Anna's breathing was faint but regular as she sat with her legs pulled up to her chest. Her eyes seemed to be burning holes in the back of my head, even though they were unseen in the darkness.We couldn't stay here. Starvation would do the job our captors had not yet chosen to complete if we waited any longer.Mostly to myself, I mumbled, "We need a way out."Anna took a while to react, and when she did, her tone was cold. "Lucas, we've already dealt with this. We're stuck unless you've instantly gained the superhuman strength to tear these bars to pieces."I was hurt by what she said, but I didn't let it stop me. "I'm not giving up," I firmly stated."Well done," she said drearily.Ignoring the sting, I moved to lean against the damp, cold wall and tried to think. A way had to exist. In the lack of brute force, trickery would have to be used.After a lengthy p

"Run, Anna!" Lucas yelled as he positioned himself between Kane and me. I was unable to move, but his voice trembled with urgency. My gaze flickered between Lucas and the towering guy in front of us."I'm not leaving you!" I shouted back, refusing to turn and face him.Kane's claws slashed through the air as he attacked with predatory speed and precision before either of us could say anything more. Lucas barely escaped the blow before retaliating with his dagger, and my heart stopped.Kane's arm was caught by the blade, but it looked to cause no harm, as though Lucas had attempted to sever stone. With his teeth bared, Kane growled and struck once more. His claws hit their target this time, ripping across Lucas's side."Lucas!" The sight of his blood made me scream, fear tearing through me."I said run!" Stunned but still in his protective position, he screamed back. His shirt was leaking blood, but he forced himself to ignore the pain.Kane's eyes glinted with vicious enjoyment as he
