Emily quickly covered the pot on the stove, which had caught fire. The pack members had already eaten, but Kane came looking for the Omegas.Mary had instructed Emily to prepare something for him since there were no leftovers, and Emily quickly got to work.She stood facing the stove, aware that Kane was watching her from where he sat on a stool at the table in the middle of the kitchen."When will that be ready?" he asked impatiently."It will be ready in a few minutes, sir," Emily replied. She rarely ran into Kane during her daily chores, and he didn't disturb her as long as she remembered all he had told her on her first day."You are doing well, fitting in with no issues," he commended her."Thank you for your advice on my first day, sir," she said gratefully."Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm starved right now. I need food," Kane said, tapping his fingers on the table."I'm sorry, sir. It's almost done," Emily told him."Fine," he said, looking irritated.A few minutes later, the food was r
Emily ran until her feet ached, the wind whipping through her hair, but she didn't stop. She arrived at a river and filled her jug, but She refrained from washing herself, as she believed the dirt was crucial to keep her scent hidden. As she climbed up a slope, she caught sight of a road in the distance, with vehicles passing by. Was this the same road Mary had mentioned? The gap between the humans and werewolves? She peered at the drivers in the passing vehicles, wondering if they were human, and if they would stop if she waved them down. However, looking at her dirty appearance, she knew they would think she was a thief or a crazy person. Emily descended the slope and hid, keeping watch as the cars passed by. When the road quieted down, she crossed to the other side, shaking her head before running deeper into the forest, Perhaps she would come across a human village on the way, but at least she was far away from the Rogues. She rested for a brief period, eating the remaining bre
Garrett had Davies by the neck, and Nani was trying to intervene to stop the fight. She slapped Garrett's soiled back, telling him to release Davies. Davies had revealed to Nani about the Omega, which was not his right to do so. However, he knew why his Beta did so; he was aware that if Nani was involved, it would not be easy to reject the Omega as his mate. Finally, Garrett had to let go of Davies. Nani touched Davies' face to check for any injury and gave Garrett t an annoyed look. "Were you going to choke him, Garrett?" she asked. "Nani, he doesn't even feel the pain," Garrett pointed out. Davies gave Garrett a smug look, but when Nani turned to him, he went sober, gaining more of Nani's pity. "Davies, dear, you were saying something about a mate," Nani reminded him of their previous conversation. "Yes, that's right, Nani," Davies replied. "Tell me, child, has he found his mate?" Nani asked. "Yes," Davies confirmed. "But where is she? Who is she?" Nani inquired. "Well," Dav
Emily regained consciousness once more, finding herself in the same room. However, this time, a lady was waiting for her in the chair beside her bed. Emily recognized the lady from the first time, and watched her warily as she gazed back cautiously. Emily wondered why someone was watching her. Was it to prevent her from escaping?“I'm harmless,” the lady reassured Emily. However, Emily wasn't sure whether to believe her. The lady showed Emily her empty hands and said, “I am your doctor. I have been treating you for days.”Emily continued to observe the doctor, keeping her gaze locked on her. What would happen now that she was awake? But it seemed that the doctor still had a lot to say. “I'm going to ask you a few questions. You can nod or shake your head in response. Is that okay?”Emily took her time before nodding her head. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail on top of her head, and she wore a large gown that failed to conceal how skinny she was.“Good. Are you feeling any pain?” th
Lois must have said the wrong thing, because, Emily was shaking furiously, she pulled away from Lois and that was it, they were going to lock her in to prevent her from escaping. They had been so good to her for a reason. Emily should not have trusted Lois, what was she thinking of in the first place, that she would be accepted here, forgetting she was only an Omega.“Please, calm down Emily, I’m not going to hurt you” Lois saidEmily would have loved to shout the word liar at her, they are all lairs from the pit of hell.“Please, listen to me Emily, I was only joking” Lois said with a quiet voice, she was distressed, her eyes filled with tears for Emily.Emily paused enough to notice that Lois was actually crying, why would Lois be crying? She was the one who should be crying not Lois.“I’m sorry for scaring you Emily, I never meant it, I was only saying that to avoid people coming here anyhow, I’m so sorry” Lois said as she turned and ran out of the room leaving Emily confused.If sh
Emily focused on controlling her breathing, taking deep breaths in and out, and repeating positive affirmations in her mind. She reminded herself that Davies was a harmless Beta and Lois's mate, and that she had nothing to fear. After a few moments, her body stopped shaking and she was able to look up at Lois with a weak smile."Excellent job, Emily. You did it," Lois praised, beaming at her. She then turned to Davies, who was standing by the door, and blew him an air kiss. "Can he come closer?" she asked Emily, who nodded in agreement.Davies approached them, stopping beside Lois. "Hello, Emily. I'm Davies, Lois's mate," he introduced himself."Hello, Davies," Emily wrote in response."It's nice to finally meet you. I'm here to escort you and Lois for your walk," Davies informed her."Okay," Emily wrote back."Alright then, you have everything you need to get ready in this bag. We'll be waiting for you in my office when you're done," Lois said, placing the bag on the bed. "Come on, D
The next day, Emily was waiting for Lois when she arrived late. Nani also came to visit her and brought fruit salad, which Emily was grateful for. She couldn't thank Nani enough and asked why she was being so kind to her. Nani didn't give a direct answer but said that Emily was beautiful and like a child to her. Emily wondered why Nani picked her when there were probably many beautiful and child-like adults in the pack, considering she was just a low-class Omega. Nani also told her that she had a bright future ahead of her, but Emily was cautious about getting her hopes up.Nani left after receiving a call from a friend, and Emily bid her farewell. She wished she could buy herself a cell phone one day, but she knew she had to work to earn the money. She considered working in a bar or cleaning houses, as Omegas were treated fairly in the pack, but she didn't want to be tied up in the pack house. She wanted to explore and smiled when Lois finally entered her room with another bag of clo
Nani decided to take matters into her own hands and paid a visit to Garrett's office. She was ready to confront her grandson, as she could not sit back and watch him mistreat his mate any longer. The poor child did not deserve the attitude he was showing towards her. Although it was not the mate's fault that she was paired with Garrett, he should not be treating her poorly. Nani believed that even if Garrett was cursed and unable to love, he should at least be lusting after his mate, which was not a bad thing. However, he was not even displaying that much.Nani barged into his office without knocking, and Garrett did not bother to look up as he already knew who it was. Nani pounded her fist on his desk, and Garrett had no choice but to look up at his grandmother. He could see the fiery anger in her eyes, just like the one he inherited. Without even asking what brought her to his office, Nani exploded."That child will leave the hospital wing and live in the pack house, doing whatever
