All Chapters of Alpha's betrayal, Omega's revenge: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Elliot“Hmmm, the food is really yummy,” Elena chirped, her gaze darting to Lila, who nodded in agreement with a small smile.Across the table, Kai smirked, the faint marks on his neck divulging exactly why he was in such a good mood this morning.‘Alpha, thank you,’ Kai mindlinked me, his tone smug.I didn’t need to ask what for. The satisfaction radiating from him said it all. My jaw clenched as I remembered how his mate had barged into my room, shattering a moment I wasn’t likely to get back anytime soon.‘Tell your mate to knock before entering rooms that don’t belong to her,’ I grumbled through the link, keeping my expression impassive.Kai’s response was instant and sharp. ‘Why don’t you lock the door instead? My mate is innocent.’I nearly scoffed aloud. ‘Your mate is as innocent as a predator in a sheep's meadow, dumbass.’Kai scowled, but I ignored him, turning my focus back to the table. My father had left earlier for a council meeting. As King, he rarely spent long at home,

“Here are your shoes,” Bella said, her syrupy voice barely masking the tension as she bent to place them neatly at my feet. Her overly sweet demeanor was as grating as nails on glass, and her tight smile betrayed the storm simmering beneath her polished facade.“Thank you, Bella,” I said, the words dripping with sweet mocking as I leaned back in my chair, savoring the moment. Watching her rise with clenched fists and a forced smile was more satisfying than I cared to admit.The tables had turned. The woman who once delighted in lording over me now stood at my feet, bound by circumstances. Karma’s justice had never tasted so sweet.“What were you and your father discussing?” Bella’s voice was deceptively casual, though her sharp eyes cut into me like daggers. She leaned toward him, pressing a kiss to his lips in a possessive display that seemed almost juvenile, showing me that she still had him on her side.I smiled faintly, folding my hands in my lap. “Nothing you’d find interesting,”

ElliotGeorge’s garage was barely large enough for his car, so I parked outside. The house was old, small, and unassuming. George greeted me warmly at the door, and his wife appeared shortly after. Her face was etched with worry and exhaustion, yet gratitude shone through as she bowed respectfully. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at me."Thank you, Alpha," she said, her voice breaking as the tears began to roll down her cheeks."Yuri, let Alpha come inside and rest," George said gently, wrapping an arm around his wife’s trembling shoulders."Daddy, you're home!" a small, excited voice piped up, drawing my attention to a tiny figure that barely reached George’s waist. A little girl, frail and pale, ran toward him with all the energy her weak body could muster.George scooped her up in his arms, her laughter a soft, fleeting melody that felt too fragile for this world. Despite the bags under her eyes and her sickly complexion, she radiated a kind of innocent joy that was almost

ElliotSleep eluded me, chased away by thoughts of Jasmine’s innocent resilience and the silent struggles of Lila’s pack members. Guilt clawed at me, highlighting the privileges I often took for granted. How many others were suffering in silence, waiting for help that might never come? The weight of my responsibility pressed down on me.But amidst all that, one thought burned brighter than the rest—Lila. The pull toward her was magnetic, impossible to ignore. My body ached for her presence, my soul sought her comfort, and my wolf missed her too badly.Unable to bear the distance any longer, I left George’s house, stealth and determination guiding me to hers. With a little help from my cousin, I found her room, the beacon of light in my otherwise turbulent night.The moment she opened the window, irritation flickered across her features, but it melted into something warmer when I stepped inside. The sharp reprimand in her voice was nothing compared to the heat blazing in her eyes.“Put

ElliotI paced back and forth in her room, my frustration mounting with every passing second. My wolf was restless, growling in my head, urging me to go downstairs and make sure Lila was safe. I wanted to listen, to storm down there and end whatever nonsense was keeping her from me. But I held back, gritting my teeth. Not yet.This was her home—or at least, it had been for most of her life. No one would dare lay a hand on her now, not when they knew I was her mate. They’d seen what I was capable of when it came to protecting her. Still, the thought of her stepmother Bella—the woman who had tormented her, humiliated her, and stolen her peace—calling her downstairs past midnight made my blood boil.I ran a hand through my hair and sat on the edge of her bed, the mattress sagging under my weight. How much longer, Lila? My fists clenched at the thought of what she might be enduring downstairs. But I trusted her. She was strong, stronger than anyone gave her credit for. That’s what life had
