The Omega and his Luna mate

Chapter 7: Heartache

Night fell and most of the pack were distracted. Some were in the gym working out, others crowded around the dining hall for a late dinner. Laughter echoed through the mansion, mixed with the clatter of dishes and distant conversations.

For everyone else, it was an ordinary evening.

For Amy and me, it was the beginning of a new life.

Or at least, that was the plan.

As I hurried down the hallway, Kira stepped into my path. I almost growled at my own Luna.

Not tonight.

Of all nights, not tonight.

Before I could dodge around her, she grabbed my wrist and dragged me into Zack’s office and pushed me on the desk like she always did.

Curiosity got the better of me and I asked, “how come you want s**x with me? Does Zack not give you any?”

I was expecting her to s.lap me for saying such a thing but she laughed, “no, he f.ucks me all the time. A lot. I just really love your giant c***k and you make me come through s**x, he can only make me come with foreplay.”

I rose an eyebrow.

Knowing I was meant to be meeting Amy in ten minutes I wondered if Kira would enjoy domination. If she didn’t I’m sure she’d take control. I didn’t think too hard if it would p.iss her off and I picked her up and sat her on the edge of the desk.

I tore her clothes off along with her panties and shoved myself inside of her. She gasped in both surprise and pleasure so I carried on and f.ucked her as hard and as fast as I could on the desk.

I kissed her neck and bit along it hard, when she tried to grab my hair I pushed her back on the desk and pinned her arms above her head, f.ucking her harder.

“Oh, yes, keep doing that!” She panted.

I had her coming within minutes on my c***k and then I let her go and did my jeans back up.

“Can I go?” I asked.

She was too breathless and giddy to talk and just waved her hand at me as a dismissal.

I was rushing down the hall still doing my belt up when Zelma tried to grab me. f***k that. “Sorry, babe, Rosie’s next, I’m on my way to her now.”

“I’m after her then,” she purred.

I nodded and tried not to shiver.

Amy was waiting by the front door.

The moment I saw her, relief washed through me.

She smiled nervously.

“You ready?”

I reached for her hand.

“Let’s go.”

We didn’t bring any belongings with us, that would look suspicious. Even though we had to ‘work’ for the pack today it didn’t mean we weren’t allowed to leave the mansion. They let me work and they still let us have a life, sort of, it was mostly trying to escape the place that was the hard part, so even though we had left no one would find it suspicious. Not right away.

Once we were a safe distance I grabbed Amy’s hand and we ran.

The cold night air rushed past as we sprinted through the darkness.

Branches swayed overhead.

The moon hung bright and silver above the forest canopy.

Freedom was so close I could almost taste it.

Once we reached the woods near my work place, we shifted to our wolf form.

It was less painful than the lycan form and would help us hide and get about more stealthily.

We changed in private, it was a private thing and still painful, it took about five minutes to complete the change.

Bones twisted.

Muscles reshaped.

Pain ripped through every part of my body.

Five minutes later, I was standing as a grey and white wolf. Amy stepped out from the bushes, her sandy-coloured fur glowed beneath the moonlight.

She was gorgeous.

She padded over to me and nudged my shoulder with her nose.

I bumped her back playfully.

Then we ran together.

The forest became a blur.

Moonlight flashed between the trees.

Leaves scattered beneath our paws.

For the first time in my life, I felt truly free.

We were halfway through the forest when I sensed another wolf nearby.

It smelt like Zack’s scent. Spice and vanilla ice-cream, yeah, don’t ask why he smelt like that, he just did and I’d made the mistake of following that scent once wanting to lick that gorgeous scent thinking it was food, it was a very awkward moment when I’d found myself looking at Zack instead.

One minute we were running and the next it was like some horror movie. I looked behind me and saw Zack explode from the darkness, he was in his lycan form all black fur and red eyes, chasing us.

He was huge and everything seemed like slow motion as I watched him catch up to Amy and s***h his giant claws across her stomach. She whined and fell to the floor turning back to human. I changed back as fast as I could.

Zack must have too because he walked out from the bushes smirking.

I ran and dropped to my knees beside Amy and held her hand. She was crying and coughing as she bled across the floor heavily, her blood was so dark I knew she wasn’t going to survive this.

“Hold on baby.”

I tried smiling and stroked her hair.

“How could you hurt your own pack!” I yelled at Zack.

“The moment you left you were no longer pack,” he smirked.

“How did you know?”

“I’m the alpha, did you think I wouldn’t notice how much closer you two seemed? Going out together more than usual, bringing her to work with you. I followed you and I was confirmed on my suspicions when I saw you kiss and hold hands. I also know you’ve been f.ucking my mate.”

“I don’t want to f***k your mate she makes me, you made me the w.hore for the pack so technically it’s your fault.”

He shrugged. “I don’t care, she’s s.hit in bed, I much preferred Amy’s p.ussy.”

I looked up at him In surprise, I had no idea he had been having s**x with Amy. He had a smug look on his face at my expression.

Growing more serious he angrily growled, “you are no longer part of this pack, I could kill you, but only out of respect for your father and his sacrifice to keep our pack safe I won’t, you can live.” He left after that.

I looked back down at Amy, she was covered in blood and bleeding out, she wouldn’t heal in time, her insides were showing and I knew moving her would make her bleed out faster and possibly cause more damage.

“Amy,” I cried. I didn’t care about trying to be tough right now.

I gripped her hand tighter sobbing as I felt hers losing its grip on mine.

“I didn’t get to tell you I love you.”

She smiled softly at me and stroked my cheek. “I knew,” she whispered.

“Please don’t leave me darling, I need you, I’m nothing without you.”

She slowly brought my hand to her lips and kissed it. “You are everything Adam, you are so strong and kind, you will go and find another pack, another mate and you will not let Zack destroy you. I will always love you, but you have yet to find your true mate, go find her, find her for me and have those pups we said we’d have.”

I couldn’t bear the pain, It broke my f.ucking heart that in all her pain, even though she was the one dying she was trying to comfort me, even to the very end as I saw the light slowly leaving her eyes.

I pulled her body onto my knees and cuddled her tightly. “I love you so much Amy, you go be happy in paradise,” I whispered.

She smiled one last time and then she was gone.

I was broken, I cried for hours and hours, I held her body for hours until I fell asleep. I woke up beside her and she was cold, I broke down again, I couldn’t leave her I didn’t want to leave her cold and alone.

I dug a small grave for her in the same place we had made love and then I gently lay her down in it. It took every ounce of my willpower to not grab her back out and hold her and never let her go again. It felt wrong leaving her, I had this weird irrational thought of what if she woke up and I wasn’t there?

I didn’t want to leave her so alone, so I took off my necklace I’d worn my entire life. My fathers tooth. The only thing I had left of him. I gently placed it around her neck and then I buried her.

More than once when I was walking away I almost turned to go back to her.

I didn’t know where I was going now. I don’t know how far I walked just that days passed into weeks and then into months. I had to hunt rabbits and deer in wolf form to keep me going.

I had almost grown used to being alone and surviving, it was almost peaceful. When a few months had passed by I was finally settled in a big forest. It took about a month just to get to it.

This country was truly massive and I wondered why the government had hid it from people, had they known about us supernaturals all along? Had they known they would need this place for us someday?

The pain of Amy was still with me, not quite as severe as time passed but like an old wound that never fully healed. I’d lost my upbeat and playful spark.

I was washing myself In my usual small stream when a spear embedded itself in the tree right next to my head. I looked over and saw a group of women watching me in the distance. They were all black women and from their smell, werewolves.

The slim tall one stepped forward and snarled, “who are you to trespass on our territory.”

She was fierce and wild looking. Untamed. Like she’d been born into the forest itself.

Like a deer caught in the headlights I stuttered, “uh, Um, I’m Adam.” Great response.

Before I could embarrass myself further she crossed the distance between us. Fast.

She grabbed me by the throat.

“Woah lady! Chill out!” I tried to pulling away but she was really strong.

Her grip tightened.

“Why are you here,” she growled.

“Uh, well, it’s kind of a long story and—”

She cut me off and snapped, “give me the short version.”

“Basically, I ran from my old pack who were abusive d.icks and my mate was with me but our alpha caught up to us.”

My throat tightened.

Even months later, saying it out loud hurt.

“He killed her.”

Her eyes didn’t soften but she looked me over curiously, let go of my throat and leaned in to sniff my neck.

“Mmm, hello,” I flirted. I usually flirted when I didn’t know what else to do.

“You smell of many females.”

“Still? I swear I wash everyday.”

She ignored me and sniffed me again.

“You are not dominant?”

“Nooo, definitely not, just your average friendly neighbourhood omega.”

If she caught on to the Spider-Man phrase she didn’t let on. She seemed very tribal and wild so I doubted she watched movies.

She went back to the other females and they whispered for a while, one of them looked over at me. I winked at her making her smile bashfully before the scary bossy one snapped something at her and she looked away.

The tall one came back over to me and said, “if you have no pack you may join ours, we don’t usually accept males but you are an omega so we will make an exception, as long as you behave yourself around my females.”

“Of course. I’m Adam, who are you?”

“I will be your Luna, but you may call me Rieka.”

Her name meant wolf queen, how fitting. I took a closer look at her as they led me back to the gods knew where. Maybe they’d cook me for dinner?

I was six foot four, just as male wolves were big down below we were also always tall, built for strength.

The Luna, Rieka was around six foot one, she was tall, lean and powerful.

Every movement carried effortless confidence.

Her skin caught the sunlight filtering through the trees. she was almost a midnight black. At first I thought her skin was glittering.

I looked more closely and saw her perfectly flawless skin shimmered with what looked like a thousand tiny stars, leaning in closer to look I realized it wasn’t stars it was little crescent moons. They shimmered faintly as she moved.

It looked beautiful.

She didn’t need any makeup, I looked at her face and noticed she had high cheekbones and full Cupid bow lips. Her hair was curly and had braids running through it coming down to her waist, it was jet black like mine but I saw that hints of silver and gold shimmered amongst the black strands like moonlight woven into silk.

She was beautiful and I felt my d.ick grow hard, I hadn’t felt him in a long time.

She looked at me when I started trying to sort myself out.

“Do you have a problem?” She asked the question like she already knew and wasn’t impressed.

I laughed, “pfft, no, of course not.”

“You know you cannot mate with my females if you join our pack?”

“Well that’s a first,” I snorted and quickly shut my mouth at her fierce gaze.

“Your old pack, were you quite the ladies man?”

“Hmmm, you could say that.”

She rolled her eyes.

“The second you touch or try coming on to my females you will be kicked out.”

“What if they touch me first?”

She gave me a dirty look and answered, “if they show interest that’s fine, but I don’t want you harassing them, most of my females come from abusive packs where the males would use them.”

I nodded. “I understand.”

And I did. Probably more than she realised.

We continued walking until the trees suddenly opened up.

I looked up to see out in this forest they had their own big house.

I had to ask, “how come your skin is covered in tiny little crescent moons, and your hair is the colour of the moon?”

I wasn’t sure she would answer but she did. “I was bitten by a vampire, it changed my look slightly.”

“That’s so cool! I mean, sorry, not cool you got bit but, what gifts do you have?”

She frowned at me like I was a big kid and said, “I have better hearing than even the wolf, sight too, I can see in the dark as clearly as I can in the daylight. I can move supernaturally fast too, it’s called flitting.”

“Woah.”

“Come on,” she muttered and led me inside.

And for the first time in months, I found myself following someone toward a future that didn’t feel entirely hopeless.
