The Stained Omega

Chapter 20

My Alpha.

(Anna)

I’m pleading with Winter to reject Max as our mate, I’m confused by Fractions presence but also not. It

feels right that he is here, but I don’t understand it. Sometime between pleading with Winter and

shouting at the Goddess for help I realise Fraction has gone. I didn’t see him leave, I needed him, and

he just left me, I felt somewhat stronger with him by my side. I can feel the flames are getting closer to

us, I can’t imagine anything good will happen once they reach us. If Fraction is right and this is just a

dream I need to wake up. I’ve fought too hard for my life for it to be taken away because some asshat

Alpha decided I was his. Just as I’m about to be consumed by the flames I hear Winter, in a small voice

say, “I reject you Max. as my mate and Alpha.” Suddenly the flames around me go down, as if by magic

the grass slowly starts to turn green, the once red sky is now breaking apart to show some blue areas. I

think we did it, “thank you Winter.”

I wake with a start. The first thing I realise is I’m not in the cage. I’m not sure where I am. Wherever it

is, it smells good. Like white. chocolate and freshly made books, I turn to my right and see a set of

black drawers with a lamp on it. The wooden floor is scattered in jeans. and shirts, apparently the

person who owns this room doesn’t believe in laundry baskets. The bed I’m in is massive; it could

easily fit three or four wolves.

“I’m so glad you’re awake, Anna. I’ve just linked with the doctor, he’s on his way now.” Im startled when

I hear that voice, I turn to my left and start to cry.

“Momma Beth?” I can’t believe she’s here.

“Hi sweet girl, you had us all worried for a while there.” A man comes into the room he’s out of breath

and carrying a leather satchel. He’s smaller than James but taller than I am, judging from his sterile

smell this must be the doctor. He walks to the bed and starts taking things from his bag. Nothing too

scary looking, thank Goddess.

“Anna, I’m Doctor Lee, I’m the pack doctor here.” He must be new, the last pack doctor was an elderly

woman, “I’m glad to see you awake, although I wasn’t expecting it to be so soon.” He starts taking my

temperature, “your temperature has come down and you no longer smell of infection. How’s your

neck?”

I slowly reach up and run my fingers over the mating mark, I can’t feel the pain anymore but it’s still

very much there. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.” I tell the doctor, he carefully turns my head to the side to

inspect the mark.

“It seems to be fading, it looks like you and your wolf have successfully rejected the mark.” He starts

saying other things, but I block him out. The smell of white chocolate and freshly made books has just

become even stronger, I look over to the door and lock my eyes with Fraction. “Mate!” I all but growl

out. It’s low and very unlike me. Fraction falls to his knees with tears running down into his beard.

The doctor quickly leaves after my announcement. I didn’t hear a single word he said after Fraction

walked into the room. As if all at once the green eyes in my dreams, the wolves running together, the

smells I can’t place, all make sense. Winter has been telling me for a long time that Fraction is my

mate. That Leo is hers.

“How long?” Fraction looks up at me confused, he’s still kneeling on the floor beside the bed. “How long

have you known who we are to each other?” He takes my hand in his and a shot of electricity shoots

through me, it’s not unpleasant. I could enjoy this feeling forever.

“Since the first time I saw you.” He says in a low voice. I’m shocked,

he’s known about this for three years and never told me.

“Three years! Three years and you never said anything. You kept me here like some sidekick friend,

ignored me, refused to swear me into the pack and pawned me off to your Beta all the while knowing

I’m your mate!” I’m enraged, does he not want me? Am I really so damaged that even my mate would

ignore me for three years. Fraction gets off the floor and sits on the end of the bed.

“It wasn’t easy, little wolf. Alphas can sense their mate from a very young age but if we meet our mate

while they are still pups it’s against our laws to tell them. Our wolves put up this wall that doesn’t allow

us to be anything but a protector to them. It stops any unfortunate incidents from happening, it also

protects the pup until they are ready.” I can see the truth in his eyes but after everything I’ve gone

through and now this, I’m not ready to let go of my rage.

“And let me guess now I’m 18 and lying broken in your bed you think what? That I’ll just spread my legs

and let you mate me?” I’ve shocked him, I don’t really mean what I said. I have this rage in me and it’s

bubbling over.

“Goddess no Anna. How could you think that of me? I’ve searched for you for almost a year, killed

wolves to get you back and locked a foreign Alpha in my cells. I’ve sat by your side for days, neglecting

the pack to help you heal. I somehow got dragged into your dream and I helped you reject what was

forced upon you. Not once has the thought of mating you even crossed my mind; I just wanted you to

wake up and be whole again.” I can see the truth in Fraction’s green eyes, I can also see the pain my

words caused him.

“I’m sorry Fraction. I … I didn’t mean what I said.” I cast my eyes down, I’m ashamed of myself.

Fraction puts a finger under my chin and brings my eyes to his, “Don’t be sorry Anna. You, of all

people, are allowed to be angry.”

“Did you get John?” I ask suddenly, remembering my brother at the farmhouse with all the females and

rogues.

“John? Your brother, John?” Fraction sounds confused, of course he would think John died when they

attacked the Mountain Pack.

“He’s the one who took me, well his rogues, but he sold me to Max. He made sure I was punished

daily, he’s holding all the other females. We have to help them, Fraction! We can’t just leave them there

to be raped and beaten!” My voice has risen to a shout by the time I’m done. The look on Fraction’s

face is one I will never forget. He’s blaming himself. I can see it in his eyes. He stands from the bed

and walks to the window.

“I’m so sorry Anna. I should have made sure all of the Mountain Pack died that day.”

“It’s not your fault ” he turns to look at me and I can see the anguish on his face

“Isn’t it? If I and the other Alphas made sure they were all dead none of this would have happened.

Now he has countless females, he stole my mate and had her beaten and… and” he can’t get the

words out; his voice is cracking from the pain he feels.

“Fraction come here,” I hold out my arms for him, but he doesn’t come. to me. Preferring to feel his pain

than let me help take it away, “Fraction, he didn’t…they didn’t rape me.” His eyes shoot to mine, “I think

Max was planning to, but I assume you were the reason he didn’t. I saw females get attacked and I

saw them raped without mercy but I..” The guilt I feel is huge and like a lump in my chest, “I was lucky, I

guess. After I got there Max turned up to buy a whore.” Fraction growls at me being called a whore,

“His words not mine. John took me to him, and Max scented me. Because I was underage, he left me

with them under strict instructions not to use me as I was his.” I start picking at the skin around my

nails, “I guess…I guess I was lucky.”
