Elesi is a typical Omega, and very much a background character in some larger romance that would be about the Alpha and his chosen mate being thrown off track by his return with a 'fated mate' causing the pack to go into quite the tizzy. What will happen to the pack? Who is this woman named Juniper? Who is sleeping with the Gamma? Why is there so much drama happening in the life of the once boring Elesi. Come find out alongside the clueless Elesi as she is thrusted into the fate of her pack. Who thought a background character's life would be so dramatic?

She is getting closer, following the scent of my blood - following the sound of my heart. I can feel her hot breath upon my skin. "Alesi. Naughty girl. You know better than to run from Mother." Her teeth upon my skin, pain rushing over my battered body. I try to scream, but my voice is lost to the silence of the woods. The darkness overtakes me.
"Alesi?" I wake up, panting again as I try to focus and listen to the small voice beside me. "Alesi we need to wake for chores. You want to be able to eat breakfast today, right?"
It was all just a dream. I groan, peeking over at Brenna with a frown. "I am up, Bre." She pouts, the young omega looming for a few more moments before moving to the door to leave. "You best hurry, Alesi."
As Brenna leaves I can hear the sound of the others within the Omega dorms scurrying about. The night shift returns, and the day shift gets ready to greet the sun. 'You best get moving, Alesi. Now is not the time to dawdle.' Vesper teases, my wolf being in high spirits this morning. ‘It was the nightmare again, Vesper...' I try to reason with her, curious if she would speak of it. 'I know, Alesi. But nightmares are merely dreams. We must live in reality. Our mother is dead. We were told this years ago.'
I rather not argue with Vesper this early, pulling myself out of bed to put on my uniform. My raven hair in the morning makes me feel like I belong in a horror film, straight hair covering my face tangled in the back. "It's our Birthday soon..." A day that should be of joy, but all I can remember is the night of my thirteenth learning of my Mother's death. 'That was five years ago, Alesi.'
All I have left of my Mother is her lucky charm; a rose pendant necklace. She wore it every day - even that day. Now I wear it everyday.
I gather my things and head down to the front of the dorms to meet up with Bre. She isn't waiting patiently, tapping her foot and giving me a look as I walk up to her. "You need to stop staying up so late. I know you are studying, but we have work that needs to be done. We aren't teenagers anymore that can get away with being late." Such a grumpy little lady, but she is my best friend. "I know, Bre. I am sorry. I just lost track of time...again. Let's get going to the pack house - perhaps you can get sight of the warriors running shirtless?"
Bre almost purrs at the thought, quickly catching herself and huffing before turning to start walking. "I could care less about those buff idiots." I giggle, knowing all too well why she is acting this way. "Come on Bre. I know a certain warrior that might be a dumb idiot, but is really sweet." If steam could come out of Bre's ears, they would. She stiffens, turning to look back at me with these hot bright cheeks. "ALESI!"
My teasing continues a bit as we enter the forest path leading to the packhouse, the crisp autumn morning revealing my breath as I speak. "So are you going to the bonfire tonight?" Bre shrugs, letting out a sigh. "Those things are not much fun anymore. Everyone is just..acting like dumb kids. I don't know about you, but I rather not have to watch the girls fawning all over those brats."
"So what do you want to do? We have the day off tomorrow..." If not the bonfire, it would be nice to do something. "How about we go for a run?" Bre offers, making Vesper excited. "Well you got Vesper's vote." "A run it is then."
We arrive at the packhouse, a few omegas wandering about gardening up front. Everyone had their jobs, and we had ours. Bre and I are maids, cleaning the messes of the upper ranks and their families.
Entering the Packhouse, we head towards the kitchens to help with breakfast before our cleaning duties - needing to wait for those slumbering to wake so we can tidy their rooms. The smells of the cooking meats cause my mouth to water, but work needs to be done before food is had.
After preparing and setting out the buffet, a bell is rung - signaling to those slumbering their food is ready. The Alpha and Luna are always the first to wake and enter the dining hall, sitting and waiting for their plates to be served and coffee brought. Bre was on up to serve them today, nervous as fuck that she might spill something. Like most omegas, we find the couple pretty terrifying - but we know they are who protects us.
I have spoken to Luna once, and that was when my Mother died. She was very loving, and comforted me in my tears. I was sent to live with Bre and her family after that, till we were old enough to enter the Omega Dorms.
Rhory pushes open the door to his private quarters, letting out a soft grunt as he puts me down gently on his bed, "You need to rest, Elesi. You are healing, not healed. " He looks down at me, clearly concerned. "I know, but I feel strange..." I whisper softly, looking away from his gaze. "Vesper also doesn't feel well. Being around Elwood makes my body strange..." A shiver crawls down my spine, and before I can move I feel Rhory move closer to me. "R-rhory?" "You reek of arousal. It has been hard for me to control myself. I felt so territorial with him near you earlier..." Rhory rumbles at me, pinning me gently to the bed. I can see in his eyes that he wants me, but is holding himself back as much as he can - even if he had me pinned it was gently. "I don't like him like that..." I look up at Rhory and admit to him how I feel about Elwood, not even knowing that male. "I don't like that he says we are fated mates. I don't believe it..." I can feel something poke my thigh, but it do
Rhory takes me away from the clinic, seeming to want to just get away from Elwood and everything else. He looks strong, but I can feel that he is afraid, perhaps nervous. "Rhory. I think we can stop here." I speak up after we pass into the woods for a bit, not really knowing where we are. It was not a trail. He puts me down on a large boulder and looks me over, clearly worried. "I don't smell anyone around. He did not follow us, nor did anyone else." His eyes meet mine, piercing my soul. "Thank you. I really did not want to be near him. He makes my skin crawl and my body feel disgusting." I shiver, remembering the 'sparks' that wanted to overtake my mind. Vesper is softly whining, unhappy with the way our body feels. "He says we are mates..." Rhory's eyes widen as he lets out a soft territorial growl. "Bullshit. He doesn't even know you - how could you be-" He pauses, it seems to click. "What the fuck did Alpha Rainer bring into the pack..." He paces a bit, thinking for a moment. "
I open my eyes with a groan, trying to move. The dream was gone, but I still remember her warning. My Father was coming. I try to get up, but feel a hand reach out to touch my arm. The touch feels strange, alarming. I know who this is. "Elwood..." His name hoarsely leaves my lips. "Go away." Elwood removes his hand, but he doesn't depart. "Who did this to you?" He is talking calmly, but I can feel his anger. "I-" Don't say anything Elesi, do you want more trouble from Evette? "I don't remember." I lied. I open my eyes and I see that I was brought to the clinic to get treated. This bed is uncomfortable. "Why are you protecting who did this to you?" Elwood looks at me with such a fierce gaze. The male is handsome, if you can get past the fact he belongs to a cult. "I must tell the doctor you are awake." He stands to leave, giving me the space I requested. Vesper is still on edge, but doesn't seem as aggressive towards him as she was before. "He saved us..." So he must have been the
I make my way to the kitchens finally, taking a moment to think as I prepare Juniper something to eat. I can't believe my luck lately. I must be cursed. The Moon Goddess is playing a trick on me. Vesper rumbles, also upset about our luck. "I smell chaos approaching." Before I can even turn around I feel a hand on my shoulder, shoving me to the ground. I was caught off guard, unable to brace myself. I hit the floor with a thud, banging my head against the counter on my way down. "You snake!" A voice hisses at me, clearly displeased with me. "You should have told my Brother NO! Why would you serve that bitch!" The voice is clear now, it's Evette. Am I to be bullied now? I get why she is upset, but an Omega can not say no without just cause. "Please." I groan out, lifting a hand to touch my head - feeling something warm and wet. "I am merely following orders..." I look at my hand and see red. I am bleeding from the fall, great. "Following orders!?! Well as YOUR FUTURE LUNA you shoul
I get up and head to the showers, at least I should go in late then not at all.I rush to the pack house to check in with the head Omega, but upon arrival I am met by Ander waiting for me in the kitchen. "There you are, Omega Elesi." He says with a tired smile, it seems someone didn't get much sleep last night. "Can I help you, Beta Ander?" I fix my hair up into a ponytail, trying to keep myself from fidgeting too much. "Alpha Rainer has asked me to fetch you when you come in this morning. He'd like for you to be assigned to help Juniper. It seems she has taken a liking to you - or well trusts you." He smiles at me, almost pleading with me to agree to this. I really REALLY don't want to, but I also know that any Omega that agrees to this is going to get bullied by Evette. I don't want any of my friends to suffer. I let out a sigh. "Fine. If the Alpha wishes, but please let it be known that HE asked me." I give him a look, and he raises his hands. "Deal. I will make sure people know
I was going to head to the clinic, but all I want to do is lay down now. Somewhere safe. Escape the chaos of this day under the comfy blanket of my bed. My body reacts to this, now heading towards the dorms. Bre left a note on the door, saying she'd be with her parents tonight. Alone sounds good right about now. I don't have to explain to yet another person how my day went. I almost tear off my clothes, my body still feeling so warm and crawl into bed. It doesn't take long before I feel myself drifting off, hoping that my dreams will grant me some relief from the day.I am awoken by a strange tapping noise. Is someone at my window? I am on the third floor. Slowly I move, my body still feeling strange from earlier. I make my way to the window and pull back the curtain, finding myself shocked to see Tirian perched outside it."Going to let me inside?" He whispers, watching me with those blood red eyes of his. I quickly move to open the window, not really thinking other than 'what if
