In the packed hall of the mansion, Catrina found herself in a corner from an hour ago, doing her best to fit in while steering clear of anyone who could potentially give her trouble. Especially him, though.

Theo was blending in with the crowd, chatting with the guests as he went to get her a drink. Five minutes later, Catrina sees him stumbling towards her after just sipping on some black wine that a maid brought.

"Theo! What's wrong?" She was freaking out, desperately placing her hand on his chest to prevent his hefty frame from collapsing to the ground.

"No idea. I'm feeling lightheaded right now; I can't even bring myself to open my eyes!" Theo ran his hand over his face.

Catrina bit the inside of her cheek. She had told him not to drink anything if he could help it, so he wouldn't get too wasted, but he didn't seem to pay attention to her.

"Want to lie down for a while? Do you want to go home?" She was hoping that Theo would simply agree to go home.

She was already getting uneasy being in this place anyway, her eyes can't stop anxiously scanning her surroundings in case that handsome yet cruel man who caused her so much pain was also in this room.

"A couch. I don't want to go home yet."

Catrina just nodded and helped Theo walk toward the sofa in the corner of the room. She assisted him in sitting down, finding a comfortable position, and loosening his tie to make it more comfortable.

What she did caught the guests' attention, but she ignored all of them. Catrina could at least be relieved that she was wearing a mask.

"Theo, are you okay?" She asked, noticing the increasing amount of cold sweat dripping from his temples.

"Yeah..." Theo breathed. I've got to meet that Alpha first. Or he'd think I'm too chicken to show up at his pack party."

"Alpha? Who's Alpha?" Catrina's face went pale.

"Carlo," he replied. "That arrogant jerk."

Catrina held her breath.

No! She had to stop this immediately! They must not meet Carlo here. But how could she tell Theo without making him suspicious?

Catrina was about to convince Theo to bounce when he let out a groan like he was in pain.

"Hold up! I'll grab some water." In a rush, she made her way to the closest dining table, where a variety of food and drinks were being served.

The hall was so crowded, and in her haste, Catrina didn't notice when a girl came up from the opposite direction and slammed into her. Catrina stumbled but somehow managed to stay on her feet.         

However, the girl was carrying a glass, and now its contents spilled and stained the dress Catrina was wearing.

"You're so stupid! How did you not notice me?" The girl snapped at Catrina in an annoyed tone.

Catrina looked up and locked eyes with her. She had a stunning face, with full lips and shiny curly hair. However, her anger etched harsh lines on her face, giving her a somewhat wicked appearance.

"I apologize." Catrina grabbed the empty glass off the ground and placed it on the table. "I didn't mean to spill your drink."

Morea didn't respond. Instead, she checked out Catrina from head to toe and inwardly scoffed, 'What kind of freak wears a mask at a party like this? She must have a hideous face.' She thought.

"What's your name?" Morea asked.

Catrina swallowed. "Marina." To her surprise, A lie escaped her mouth smoothly.

"Marina. You must be Omega, right? Do you know who I am? I'm the daughter of the Beta family, the niece of the Previous Beta, and the cousin of Beta Zeke. Also, Alpha Carlo's future mate and the future Luna of the Blackthorn pack, and now that you just ruined my mood, I will give you punish-"

Just as Morea was about to finish her sentence, another girl shouted her name. Morea glanced at the voice briefly before shifting her attention to Catrina.

"We're not done yet, freak." She snarls. Then she waltzed away from Catrina's presence.

Catrina watched as Morea disappeared into the crowd.

"Ugh, fuck my life..." Catrina grumbled at her dress, which felt sticky and wet as hell.

She had to get back to Theo, but now she had to go to the bathroom to clean her dress first. Catrina made her way out of the bustling crowd into a more empty, dimly lit hallway, trying to find a bathroom, when she ran into a young, handsome man.

"Hey, sorry to bother you, do you know where the ladies' room is?" Catrina asked.

"Just go all the way down the hallway and take a left, miss." The young Gamma responded in a friendly manner.

"Thank you."

Catrina quickened her pace towards the bathroom. In the bathroom, she turned on the water faucet and began to splash clean water on the stains along the bust of her dress. She was finally able to breathe freely as she removed her mask.

At the end of the dimly lit hallway, Zeke stood tall, hidden in the shadows, so she didn't see him as she passed by.

The Beta's gaze at the Omega was full of meaning, then he whipped out his cell phone.

"Lycan's pup has been taken down, and she's alone in the bathroom now. Are you going to come here?" He spoke on the phone to his Alpha, Carlo, who was in a separate room.

There was a long silence as Carlo didn't offer any answers.

Catrina. His mind kept repeating that lovely name. She was finally here, so close to him that he could smell her intoxicating scent.

It would be amusing if he just came downstairs and made a surprise for her, but he had a better option.

Carlo couldn't wait to see the reaction that would appear on that beautiful face when she saw him again after four long years.

He said to Zeke. "Bring her to me right now."

  • Omega's Revenge: Return With His Heir   Chapter 198: Deserve her

    Carlo.I inhaled from my cigarette, watching the smoke float into the air. I've been attempting to rid myself of this anger that's been consuming me, but unfortunately, my efforts have been in vain. All of Zeke's words, his act of betrayal, and the secrets he kept—I never expected him to do something like this.I would have killed him yesterday if Catrina's screams hadn't alerted the others to come. It took Jonah, Alex, and two other warriors to separate me from Zeke.I had already injured Zeke when they finally succeeded in separating us. As blood trickled from the deep gash I inflicted on his neck, dangerously close to his veins, I almost killed him..."Let me kill him," I growled, giving a warning that if they interfered, I might not hesitate to kill them too."What happened? Alpha, we didn't mean to interrupt or interfere, but...you could have killed him!""Just let it be. He deserved it," I answered.My gaze was sharp at Zeke. He didn't say anything. Of course, he had no explanat

    Catrina."Is everything alright? I saw two wolves jump to you from the direction of the forest." Zeke and Carissa hurriedly approached us, catching our attention. "Yes. There's nothing to worry about." Carlo answered. "They're just rogues and their pups around here, but Catrina senses that the female is pregnant. So, it seems like we'll be welcoming a new member to our pack soon." Carlo's sentence brought a comforting feeling to my chest, as he genuinely considered my suggestion, which I truly appreciated.'Thank you so much,' I smiled and said through our link.'Anything for you.'Carissa grinned, mirroring Zeke's proud expression. He turned to me and exclaimed, "Cat, you're a true Luna that any pack would be lucky to have! Not only are you powerful, but your attention to detail like this will provide them with a feeling of safety.""Thanks, that was so kind," I said to him.I noticed Zeke and Carlo exchange glances, and I realized that they were communicating through the link.

  • Omega's Revenge: Return With His Heir   Chapter 196: Picnic

    CatrinaI sensed Carlo's presence in the dining room without even glancing at the door, as his intoxicating smell wafted towards me. I immediately rushed towards him, and he pulled me closer by my waist. We kissed, savoring the moment without any sense of urgency. The way he kisses me and expresses his emotions always brings me so much joy and makes me feel incredibly loved. He didn't just kiss me when he wanted sex."The food is ready..." Mathilda announced, capturing the attention of the men.There are also some warriors, Carlo's closest confidant, who brought along their mate. Fortunately, we prepared a generous amount of food, so it seems we'll be able to enjoy a delightful meal this morning. "Come one, come on.""I'm already so peckish," Jonah murmured.Carlo invited the others to take a seat. They promptly made their way to the dining table and began helping themselves to the delicious spread of food."Invite Edna to join too." Carlo said to an Omega, then asked me, "Is Lacie aw

    Catrina.Three days later...After freshening up and changing my outfit, I made my way to the kitchen, drawn by the joyful sounds of laughter and conversation. Today was a vibrant morning, with the sun shining brightly. From the open window, the air carried the delightful fragrance of flowers from the garden and the mouthwatering aroma of cooking from the stove.Carissa stood next to the stove and seemed to be stirring something in a pot. It must be a soup—a flavorful and aromatic soup that is full of richness..."I already have a feeling it will be really good." I walked over.Edna looks after Lacie in the living room. Morea glanced at the oven, noticing the cake batter she had recently placed inside. It seemed she had planned to bake a cake this morning. Meanwhile, Mathilda set up multiple utensils and placed them neatly on the dining table."Let me help," I offered, retrieving a sleek bowl from the cupboard and placing it on the dining table."Didn't I mention that you could come

  • Omega's Revenge: Return With His Heir   Chapter 194: Flashback

    ZekeThat's how it all unfolded, like in a whirlwind. I took a few steps back. As I shifted back into my human self, my mouth was moist, and the metallic tang of blood remained. I'm feeling queasy. I shifted my gaze elsewhere, avoiding the sight of what I had just done.Celeste remained still. Indeed, I have just ended her life.Catrina sprinted towards me, her voice lost in the wind as she appeared before me in an instant. She violently shook my shoulder and said, "Zeke! You hear me?"Carlo came closer. His face was filled with so much emotion that I couldn't explain what it was, but it was clear that there was anger. He ordered me not to kill Celeste because we promised her death in front of all Dakota.But I didn't listen to what he ordered. So it's understandable that he's angry. Carlo assisted Catrina in getting to her feet. I saw how she was shocked and shaking, and I felt guilty. Alex, Jonah, and the others are showing similar expressions.They looked like they couldn't believ

    Catrina After providing Luna and her puppies with some comforting words and assuring them that we would soon locate Celeste and ensure her safety, I made my way back to Carlo. The Lunas and pups have been returned to their respective packs, while the Alphas remain here. They had a meeting at the manor, and afterward, the tasks were divided. To ensure that we would find her as soon as possible, they dispersed to every corner of Dakota until she was discovered. When I came back and make my way to the meeting room only Damien remained. He and Carlo appeared to be engaged in a heated discussion until the entire room was enveloped by their intense aura. "Your mate freed that witch; now I want to hear what you will do to account for this?" Damien growled; his face looked annoyed and angry when Carlo said that Amora was his mate. "I've rejected her; she's no longer my mate. But I'll make sure to kill her as soon as I find her." "Regardless of whether she is your mate or not, you are w
