Unfortunately, when she got to the living room, she saw Nathaniel looking back at her. Anger crossed his eyes, he did not expect to see her out. “Where did you go to this time?” Lily froze as his voice sounded in her ears. She did not expect him to be in the living room. Why did it have to be him of all people? Lily's eyes widened in their socket, a wild air went up her spine. “You look like you just saw a scarecrow in the dark.” He laughed, walking toward her. Lily backed away, she kept walking backward until her back hit the door. “This is one of the reasons being paired with an Omega is stupid. You are weak.” He spat, looking at her parted lips. Lily said nothing, she just looked away. His scent was getting into her nostrils and she hated it. “I checked your room, you weren't there. Where did you go?” He asked again. However, Lily had nothing to say. She couldn't possibly tell him that she went to the hospital to heal Fae’s mother. Her powers needed to be kept a secret. Natha
Lily walked out of the classroom, she headed for the training room. Fae directed her to the room before heading to hers. When Lily got to the training room, she saw the girls lifting dead weights. Her mouth went open. She could never deadlift but these women were doing it with so much ease. “Hi, Lily.” Sarah turned to her with a smile and then a wave. The rest of the girls turned to her and waved as well. They all looked happy to see her. Again, Lily’s heart bubbled with joy. She felt herself relax more with them. “Come over.” Sarah gestured. “Can you deadlift?” Sarah asked the moment she stepped closer. Sarah pointed to a 70kg weight, it had 35 kg on both sides. Lily swallowed hard looking at Sarah. Before she could give a reply, someone walked in. It was a lady. Her step-sister, Harriet. Lily watched her stroll in like the Queen of England. Harriet was very beautiful and sometimes it gets into her head hence the misbehaviour. “Guys, here is the new member. I decided we should
“No, I don't want to give up.” She looked at Harriet who smirked. The rest of the girls widened their eyes. How could someone love to suffer? It was obvious that Harriet would kill her. Lily was nothing but an Omega. Harriet was happy, she came here with the main purpose of punishing Lily. Her mother had told her everything about Lily, the bitch was staying with the Alphas. Harriet was in love with Nathaniel. The mere thought that Lily would see him every day made her stomach boil. This was one of the many reasons she was beating her that way. “You are ready to die. Are you depressed?” Harriet mocked. Lily sat up, looking at her. She knew deeply that she wouldn't be able to beat Harriet, she was stronger but she would not give up like a chicken. Resilience was one thing she wouldn't give up. “Come on, dummy!” Harriet whistled. Lily groaned she was about to stand when the bell rang. Deep down, she felt a sigh of relief leave her mouth. Harriet almost killed her. Every punch sent h
Lily returned to the class after washing all the blood off her face. She let her hair down thinking it would cover her face but it did not do justice to concealing her face. As soon as she got in, everyone broke into laughter mocking her for her swollen face. The rumor of Harriet hitting her quickly circulated through the school. “ How can an Omega dare to be a part of the lunar tournament.” One of them mocked. “She seems to have forgotten her place just because she schools amongst the elite.” Another feminine voice chipped in. They kept talking about her and laughing. Lily felt humiliated once again. She ended up walking to her seat with her head bent. Her heart tightened and the feeling of mortification grasped at it. She tried not to sob, her face would only her more pain if she did that. As she took her seat, she looked over at Caleb. He had an unconcerned expression on his face as always. She sighed and then laid her head on the table while they talked about her with disrespec
“Let me go!” she said without action. She was too weak to take any action. Moreover, he was stronger than her. Caleb took her to his car, he shoved her into the passenger’s seat before going to drive. Lily looked at him. “Where are you taking me?” She asked looking at him. Caleb did not say anything in response, he kept his face fixated on the road driving toward a destination. Finally, they arrived at the location. Lily saw a building in the middle of the forest. It was the only building in all of the area. When he drove her through the thick bushes, she thought that he was going to kill her.“Why are we here?” She opened her side of the door and then stepped out. Caleb sighed. “You speak too much.” He groaned and then walked in. Lily followed gently, the place was scary. There was no other building around and she couldn't even hear anyone's voice except the birds chirping on the trees. She quickly followed him before someone could grab her from behind - imaginary thoughts. In t
Soon, Caleb’s car arrived at the house. The duo went in and they met Nathaniel and Gabriel in the living room. Nathaniel was playing a video game while Gabriel was reading a book as well. “Go inside,” Caleb told her and she proceeded to go in.“She was with you?” Nathaniel turned to Caleb. He didn't reply. By this time, Lily stopped. Caleb turned to her again. “Prepare us a meal,” Caleb ordered and she nodded, heading toward the kitchen. “Where were you?” Nathaniel asked looking at her. “You would be punished severely if you don't tell us the truth,” Gabriel added. Lily looked at the floor. She couldn't talk if Caleb didn't say anything. “You have five seconds to answer, Lily.” Nathaniel sat up. “Fine. She was with me, leave her alone.” Caleb looked at his brothers. They both looked at each other with widened eyes. When did Caleb start going out with Lily? They were both gone for hours. “Lily, go on,” Caleb told her. “Why is she going to prepare our meal when Clara has been th
“I am joining the tournament.” Caleb added. Nathaniel and Gabriel turned to him, both mouths went wide open, and their eyes dilated. “Really?” “Why?” Gabriel glared at him. “Cause I want to be a part of it?” Caleb looked away, sitting back. “You never want to be a part of anything. You said the game was for losers who cannot go into the world and win the real crown.” Nathaniel smirked, looking at his brother. “Asking too many questions is a sign of insecurity.” Caleb glanced at him. Nathaniel scoffed, his words were always brief yet hurtful. “It has been five years since the tournament started and suddenly, you want to be a part of it? Just great!” Gabriel frowned. “Are you doing this because of Lily? You went out with her earlier after the mockery, why did you do and where did you go to?” Gabriel asked, looking at him with suspicion. “When did we start the questioning game?” Caleb sat up, a frown creasing his face. He placed both hands on his lap, tapping one finger on his
Caleb was to sit before his meal. Lily watched from his side and a smile crept up her lips. Their little encounter had completely changed her mind about him. She enjoyed his presence and even prayed for more. Caleb was a part of the reason she didn't want to use that drug against them. She did not want him to get hurt. He was the first to put a spoonful of food in his mouth. She watched him with delight. He even eats gorgeously, Lily thought smiling. He looked extremely handsome in her eyes. The green in his eyes made her belly flutter. However, once a spoon of the meal touched Calrb’s mouth, he froze. His eyes widened and his mouth chewed gently like he was being careful. Suddenly, he spat out the food. A dark expression clouded his face and then he turned to Lily. “Who cooked this meal?” He asked, redness filling his eyes. He took a glass of water and gulped it. “Clara,” She answered with confusion. She didn't know what was wrong. Nathaniel and Gabriel turned to their brother wi
