Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 114
The hike up the mountain is more strenuous than Victor remembers. Maybe it’s because the last time he was here, he’d done it alone, at the bloom of his age. But now, he’s old, and his bones ache from old battle scars that he doesn’t even recall.Ariadne’s miserable, wrapped up in a thick blue parka, with only her eyes exposed to the elements. She’s not as graceful on her feet now, the snow making it hard for her to move. The Omega waddles through, nearly tripping four times.“Why did I come?” the Omega laments. “This sucks.”Victor smiles despite himself, standing right behind Ariadne in case the Omega falls again, needing a brace. “It’ll get warm soon. The heat from the top of the volcano will cancel out the winter.”An hour later, they hit the midpoint in their travels, shedding their jackets as they go. But a new problem presents itself. The melt has created a thick layer of mud on the slope, which is so easy to fall into.Anna’s leading the charge, amazingly lithe, and Nathan is a

They’re all gathered by the hearth, fire crackling softly. Ariadne reads the letter aloud for the fourth time while the rest of them try to glean the clues, though the Omega feels it’s a fruitless exercise. It reads as straightforward as they come, nothing subject to interpretation.“Listen carefully, father, or you’re all going to die. The time to strike is soon. Gordon thinks you’re both dead. His overconfidence will be his undoing. I know you’re wondering why I didn’t take the shot when I’d won the game. But we were on his territory, his assassins ready to take us all out if I’d gone through with it. At least that’s what I tell myself. Be ready; the Wolf Moon is coming. Gordon intends to invite all the remaining Pack Alpha’s in the city to join us at the Auction House. This is where you must make your resurrection, take his life and claim the black throne. It’s the only way.”Then there’s the post note from Kelly, which Ariadne reads in a different voice, so accustomed to reading h
Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 116
Ariadne frowns, wishing she could leave now, afraid and mesmerized by her long-lost brother. "Do you really not remember any of it, your plans, the whole year?"Edward nods. "I really don't. I can't even fathom a world where I don't love him. It doesn't make sense.""I feel the same," Ariadne manages."The craziest thing is," Edward sighs. "I think this was my plan.""What?""I think I wanted to get shot so that you guys would come back for us, and we could take out Gordon together," he answers."Y-You could've just asked," Ariadne whispers.Edward shakes his head. "I don't know. I'm still trying to make sense of everything, Aria. Do you ever think he'll forgive me?"Ariadne's at a loss for words, not sure what to say besides, "You should get to bed. You promised him."Edward stands a heavy weight on his shoulders, the burden unseen. "Good night, sister.""Good night, Ed," Ariadne whispers at his receding back.* * * * * * * * * *The following morning, but a few hours in actual time,
Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 117
Ariadne won’t let anyone near Kelly, snarling if they get within two feet of her. She holds the girl close to her chest, though she struggles, trying to crawl into Victor’s lap on the opposite side of the couch.“We can’t stay long,” Harry explains, hands up defensively, taking a step back. “Gordon will notice if she’s not home in a few hours.”Ariadne jerks away, a flurry of paternal instincts overruling her senses. “You’re not taking my baby anywhere. She’s staying with me.”Victor sighs. “Think logically. If Gordon realizes she’s gone, he’ll start tracking her down, and that will bring him to us.”Ariadne starts tearing up. “No, we’ll get away. We can run.”Kelly sighs, adjusting herself. She takes Ariadne’s face into her tiny hands, pressing her forehead to her chin. “You know we can’t do that. What about Asheei? We can’t just leave him.”She’s right. Ariadne’s mind races with nothing to hold on to. “Why didn’t he come too?”“That mean old man won’t let Asheei out of his sight,” K
Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 118
Ariadne sits all folded up in her seat, a tiny, plastic keychain clutched in her hands. There were no goodbyes. Harry had carried Kelly away without any tears, her head laying on his shoulder, fast asleep. The Alpha had given her this, saying that she wanted her to have it, a little glittery heart to remember her by. "We'll see her again in two days," Victor hums, steadying the boat on the unforgiving sea. "It feels like two lifetimes," Ariadne sighs. "You wouldn't understand." "You're right," Victor hums. "When my father would disappear on long trips, I was actually relieved. Mom and I were happier with him gone, and it was just two of us." "What about when she'd leave for long trips?" Ariadne asks curiously. "She never left me," Victor answers. "Except that last time." A chill runs through Ariadne's spine, and she realizes she's walking in the minefield. It's always dangerous talking about Victor's family. "I'm sorry," Ariadne manages. "I shouldn't have asked." "You probabl
Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 119
Ariadne should have been ready for it, being doused in cold water. It’d been a beautiful, fevered dream, but it’s time to wake up now.The Omega slams the cover over the piano keys, a loud discordant noise rattling the floorboards, loose nails quaking in their sockets.“Talk.” Ariadne’s voice comes out like a blade of ice. “Now.”Victor sounds so distant, whole worlds away. “That crown is mine. I was always meant to rule this city. I’m sorry if I lead you otherwise.”He’s never planning on leaving.It was all a lie.“If?” Ariadne says acidly. “There’s no ‘if.’ It was intentional. You lied to get what you wanted from me.”“Baby, please—”“I was stupid enough to give myself to you,” Ariadne continues. “I’m not your baby. Don’t call me that.”“You can rule with me,” Victor says. “I need you.”“This life is what destroyed you,” Ariadne whispers. “Destroyed me, killed both our families.”Victor shakes his head. “It was me. I destroyed your life; my family ate yours up. I know.”Ariadne’s h
Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 120
Ariadne eats her meager returns in the form of a burnt bagel while Victor sits on the counter, iced peas on his black eye. Harry stands there, cleaning his nails with the edge of a knife. Kelly Winford's finally getting the hang of the toaster oven, but not without casualties. "Sorry, I've never used a device like this before?" the pale Omega woman explains. "I can make you something else." Kelly reminds Ariadne so much of herself when she'd first been let out of the cage, still adjusting to her own autonomy. "It's nothing that a little cream cheese can't solve," Ariadne says encouragingly. "Just set the heat to low next time and watch it carefully." Victor sighs dramatically, placing his peas down in the sink to defrost further for tonight's last meal. The Alpha walks out of the kitchen without another word, leaving Ariadne with a sinking feeling in her stomach. Victor had lost the first three matches against Harry, and then he'd won the next seven, a prodigious fighter, an unfor
Alpha Victor and His Omega Chapter 121
Ariadne had built it up in her mind, this night, the Wolf Moon. But legend hardly lives up to reality. In truth, it's just a moon, not impressive, nor larger than any other night. There's no storm in the sky, no wind battering against the side of the car. Instead, there is silence draped over them like a blanket as they drive to the church of dark desires. Harry's gloved hands maneuver the night's traffic with ease. "Say something, for f*ck's sake. We're going into battle without so much as a drum beat." the old Alpha says. Victor doesn't respond. He's hunched over, elbows resting on his knees, fingers pressed together, chin in the juncture of his thumb and index. His eyes are glowing scarlet, something that's pure and focused. He's an animal in the night, waiting very patiently for his kill, lest he starve to death. Ariadne shakes her head, exhaling a breath she's been holding for too long. "What do you want to hear? Try not to die, and we'll rendezvous back at HQ?" Harry sco
