The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 18
The days leading to the banquet were one of the busiest days I’ve ever witnessed. The whole building was in a frenzy. Maid cleaning and dusting beds and linens were changed. I wasn’t left out of the duties. I cleaned everything and it felt like my fingers were to fall off. And oftentimes, it felt like I was being watched. By whom? I have yet to find out. Luckily I’ve not run into the Alpha and Athena. Xerxes has been scarce and even Xander was nowhere to be seen. With all the activities I didn’t find the time to go to the cave like I badly wanted to. Sydney was also very busy and we hardly crossed paths. Truth be told, I missed her terribly. She was my closest companion in this hellish pack. An opportunity to get into the Alpha’s office and get my hands on the letter was yet to present itself. I’ve cleaned that floor again but the Alpha’s office was locked each time. But I’ve not given up. I would keep trying to get my hands on it and see what it contained for myself. I gathered my

How could I have missed it? It was the scent in the office. I looked the man dead in the eye. He had seen me in the office. That was the only reasonable explanation for his attitude in the last hour. But back to the issue at hand, poisoning? It was a hefty accusation. One that could cost me my life and I was already thinking of ways to defend myself. He wrapped his fingers around my throat, cutting off my air supply. I clawed at his fingers and tried to get some air in. Nobody moved to help me and I was left at his mercy. “Let her go Dionyus” I heard his voice. His voice was calm but carried enough authority. The fingers around my throat didn't lose their grip. “Don't make me repeat myself Dionyus” his threatening voice echoed in the silence. Instantly, his fingers let go of my throat. I sucked in large breaths of air. “Are you going to let her go unpunished, she tried to poison me?” Dionyus asked in an angry tone. “I didn't” I felt the need to defend myself. All eyes shifted to m
The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 20
I was in so much pain when I opened my eyes. My muscles ached and my back felt raw. A strangled cry left my lips and I moved. "Stay" a soft voice whispered close to my ears instantly causing my body to relax "I can't fucking believe him" I heard an angry voice say. "Let it go," the first voice said and it went silent. I didn't fall asleep again I was conscious but very weak. I heard movement around the room and whispers but i couldn't tell exactly who they were. The bed dipped as someone climbed on it and I felt gentle fingers run over my back. The minty smell of herbs filled my nose and soon I fell asleep. For the next couple of hours, I slipped in and out of consciousness but each time, there was someone in the room. The next time I woke up, I was on my back. My back didn't feel as terrible as it felt the first time I woke up. I was laying on a bed in a familiar room. The sunlight shone directly on my face. A small whimper escaped me as I tried to stand up and I heard movement o
The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 21
"Dead" I shouted in surprise."Yes," he nodded with a solemn look."She has been missing since the night of the banquet according to the reports from the investigation"I remembered that she was called on the day I was whipped but she didn't show up. "We've been on the lookout for her since then. Just this morning, the guards at the border brought her body back to the pack house. She had been brutally mauled with broken bones and all. From the look of things she has been dead for four days""That means she wasn't even alive when Frost was whipped" Samantha voiced my thoughts and Xander nodded."That is why we are all convinced that it was a conspiracy. She was probably killed just to shut her up". This was getting out of hand."Somebody from the pack did it then?" Samantha asked.He shook his head "She has the scent of rogues all over her" "How does it link to Frost," Xerxes asked. Exactly what I kept asking myself. How did it link to me?I had no connection with the rogues and ther
The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 22
My teeth clattered as I walked around the cold night. The cave could have been warm for me but it was too cold and dark to make the trip up there. Also the issue with the rogues, I didn't want to get hurt. Xander's revelation about the maid's death filled my head and a horrifying image of how the slave must have looked after getting mauled appeared in my head. Her death was still a mystery to me. How did she end up dead? How did she even go missing? My legs felt tired so I slumped tiredly at the side of the house wrapping my arms tightly around myself and praying to the goddess to keep me safe. And Sydney, why was she acting strange? Did something happen? No matter how hard I thought about it and wished for answers, nothing became clear. I got even more confused about everything. So I decided to stop thinking. At this point, it was causing me more harm than good. My eyes dropped from tiredness and although sleeping outside here was a bad idea, I didn't have any option. My clothes w
The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 23
ALPHA ROME's POV I watched as Frost hurried away. My eyes stayed on her until she disappeared. I wanted her to turn back and look at me for one last time but she didn't. "Alpha" Xander called me and I looked at him. "Is everything okay" I nodded and he turned to leave but I stopped him. "She was trying to go to the cave a few minutes ago" his eyes widened. "Xerxes" he muttered under his breath and I shook my head. "I don't think Xerxes will make her stay out in the cold or make her sleep in the cave especially at this dangerous time" Xerxes may hate me but that hatred didn't extend to Frost. He was friendly with her. Way too friendly and it irritated my wolf and I. But the point is that he wouldn't risk her life like this. "You think something is going on?".I nodded. "She was adamant about not returning inside and sleeping at the cave. There are two things, either she's being punished or..." I trailed off not wanting to consider the second option because it had me boiling with
The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 24
I was floating in space. With no sense of time or my location but I felt at peace. Absolute peace. Something I've not felt in a long while. I wanted to be here forever but that was impossible and in the next second, my eyes fluttered open. I looked around trying to make sense of my surrounding. "How are you" Samantha looked down at me, brushing her fingers gently over my forehead. "Frost. Can you hear me" she sounded worried. "I'm fine," I said but my voice came out hoarse. I was extremely tired and my muscles ached. "Are you thirsty? Hungry? I can ask the maids to get you something to eat or drink" "I'm fine. Where am I?" that felt like the most important question to ask right now. "The Alpha's room," she said and I panicked. I tried to get up and leave. It was his fault that this happened in the first place. I didn't want to be anywhere around him. "Stay still Frost" she tried to push me back to the bed but I was having none of it. "Stay Frost" his voice came from the other s
The Alpha’s Omega CHAPTER 25
I spent the night in what I've come to know as Agnia's room. No one tried to wake me up so I slept until midday. She went about her activities and returned often even bringing me my lunch but I couldn't eat anything at the moment. I forced myself to get out of bed and take a bath while replaying everything that happened last night. I should have listened to my gut instinct. I should have never told him that Athena was involved. It was clear that he would never do anything to hurt her and now I've put myself in more danger with Athena. After my shower, there were clothes on the bed. I changed into them and Agnia came in with a smaller plate this time. My stomach grumbled and I happily accepted the meal. After eating, I wanted to take the dirty plates to the kitchen but she stopped me. "Let me do it," I said but she already had the plates in her hand. "You should get as much rest as you can get. Don't bother yourself with this" her voice was comforting and I could also detect pity. S
