Meredith's POV This has to be one of the creepiest and most disgusting things I have ever witnessed.I don't understand the road my life is taking anymore. The past few days have been beyond weird. First, I realize that the maid I have been living with is actually the lover of the men I have grown to greatly admire and she was out to kill me! Then I lose consciousness, and somehow I am able to see what is happening outside my body.I mean, can we take a pause there for a bit? Is that even normal? I know I never finished that book on the origin of the omegas, but I am certain none of them witnessed things like this.Then, just when I am about to be moved and feel a bit safe, I am involved in a car accident that leaves one of the men I care about in a fatal condition. Yes, a fatal condition, because I absolutely refuse to believe that Saul was dead. It just wasn't possible.He is stronger than that.And to add to my list of crazy experiences of the last three days, I was captured and
Roman’s POV“Calm yourself, man; you look like you are about to explode with rage,” Caelen says, but I completely ignore him as I storm up to the entrance of the gallows. The guards stand before the rather large black gates with pistols in their grasp. It is clear that they were ready for war at any time.Well, so was I.“We are here to see Councilor Reid,” Caelen says coolly, and the men only look at us in disapproval.“Councilor Reid is not available at the moment,” one of them replies, and before Caelen could get another word out, I held the guard by the throat and lifted him into the air.His pistol drops as his feet dangle in the air, and he struggles for breath. His associate reaches out for his gun, but Caelen stops him by simply placing a hand on his shoulder.“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” he says, his eyes flashing a menacing shade of amber.“I am not a fan of repeating myself, but I will do so now because it is clear you have no idea who the fuck I am. My name is Roma
Meredith’s POVThe beeping of the heart monitor is the only sound that manages to infiltrate my ears. I could feel people moving around me, but I could not quite make out who they were. I couldn’t even keep my eyes open for too long.Never in my life have my eyelids felt so heavy. And I feel incredibly tired, too. All I want to do is have a nice long nap, but then didn’t I just wake up? My body screams for sleep, but my mind is fighting against it. It is telling me to get up and run, but I can’t.The fatigue is one thing, but I am actually unable to move any of my limbs right now. Whenever I managed to open my eyes, even if it was for just a second, I would see a bright white light hovering above me. Is this heaven? Am I dead? I always thought I would feel a lot lighter when I was dead. I always thought that I would be free and able to move around, but that isn’t the case right now.The next time my eyes open and shut, there is a figure standing above me. I believe it is a woman. A
Roman’s POVWe are a few meters away from the gallows, our men armed to the teeth, ready to go in with everything they have. I make sure to check if my gun is loaded and if I have a few extra bullets in my strap. There are other weapons in my holster too, such as blades and grenades.From the corner of my eye, I see Caelen watch all of his with uncertainty in his eyes. He is no coward; I know for a fact that he wasn’t scared. He just didn’t think that Meredith was all of this.That’s the difference between him and me. She was worth more than any of this. “Gather around men!” My voice instantly grasps all their attention as they await my orders. “We are going in to take back what these bastards took from us, Meredith. You all know her. When we march in there, I want you to shoot down everything that moves apart from her. Do you understand?” “Yes, alpha!” they say synonymously, and I nod once.As I pull my mask down, they all do the same. “Let’s go.” I say this before getting into m
Amarie’s POV"Sorry, love. But this is going to hurt you a lot more than it will hurt me.”The nurse opens her mouth to scream, but I strike her square on the temple with my fists. Her body falls lightly to the floor, and I look around quickly to make sure no one has seen that. I take her by her ankles and drag her into the nearest room, my senses alert for any sign of an unwanted audience.Once I manage to get her into the room, I start to undress her. I quickly switch our dresses and make sure to shield my face with a nose mask and hair net. My gaze falls on the poor nurse. I may have hit a kitten too hard because now the side of her head is bleeding profusely.I crouch down beside her and tap her bleeding head lightly. “Don’t worry, I just need your identity for a little while. In the meantime, I hope someone will find you soon. We don’t want you bleeding to death now, do we?” I place a finger on my chin, then shrug. “Not like I even care.”Rising to my feet, I make my way to the
Meredith’s POV Blood. The metallic scent fills my nostrils, forcing my eyelids apart. This isn’t my room; where am I?Memories from the previous night come flooding in, and my mouth forms an O shape as the realization dawns on me. Oh, that is right, I am currently in my matrimonial bed. I just spent the night with my newlywed husband.Most girls would be ecstatic to wake up in the arms of their husband after a blissful wedding night. But I am not.I do not even know who this man I call my husband is. My marriage was arranged by my father, and I only met my dear husband once before we said our vows on the altar yesterday. Let me explain. My name is Meredith, the first and only daughter of Oliver Amman. My father is one of the most powerful Alphas in the kingdom of Nuvia. I am sure you are thinking, Oh, I am a princess, and I have the best life. How I wish that were true, but sadly, it is not. And that is all because of one thing.I am an omega.And an omega is the wo
Meredith’s POVI have never beheld such beauty before in my entire life.The three men that surrounded me stood tall, but only two of them gave me a chilling aura.The one who had spoken has icy blue eyes piercing right through my soul. A few strands of strawberry blond hair fall above them, making him appear even more handsome. He has on a white shirt that is folded up by the sleeves. We are in the middle of the woods, and there is not even a speck of dirt on his shirt. And judging by the state of their camp site, I could tell that they have been here for a while. His expression is cold, almost unreadable. The way his icy eyes pin me to the spot has a shiver running down my spine.The second man is bronze-skinned and has eyes that remind me of honey. His muscular and tall physique nearly has me salivating. He has on a black tank top that shows off his impressive torso, along with black cargo pants and boots. He looks down at me with his eyebrows a bit furrowed. Curiosity
Meredith’s POV I blink up at him, wondering if I had heard him correctly. Roman has a deep scowl on his face when he asks, “What do you think you are doing, Saul?”The grin on Saul’s lips is evil and filled with so many mysteries. Mysteries that I am certain I do not want to uncover. "Oh, come on, Roman - look at her. I have never seen a more desperate creature before in my entire life! She says she is willing to do anything; aren’t you a little bit curious to see how far she could go?”The way he speaks about me, like I am not even here, is quite humiliating. A part of me wants to snap at him and tell him to address me with a bit of respect, I am royalty after all, but I am certain that if I do that, they won't even give me off to the slavers.They would kill me on the spot.So, I stay silent and take it all in.My gaze shifts to my supposed mate. I cannot believe he has not said anything about our mate bond. And more importantly, why isn’t he reacting to what his friend
