Return of The Rejected Omega Chapter 39
The cell reeked of fear and desperation. I paced the small space, ignoring the throb of my wounds, the pull of the poison still running through my veins. None of it mattered. Not when Stella was out there, alone and hunted.Angela watched me from the other side of the bars, her eyes glittering with a sick sort of amusement. "You're wasting your energy," she said, her voice a mocking purr. "She's exactly where she needs to be."I lunged at the bars, snarling. "If they hurt her, I swear I'll—""You'll what?" Angela laughed. "Bleed on me? Face it, Silas. You're useless like this. Weak and Pathetic."I growled, but the truth of her words stung like silver. Without my wolf, I was just a man. A broken, beaten man.Angela leaned closer, her breath hot on my face. "But Stella... she's strong. Special. And not just because of the corruption.""What are you talking about?"She smiled, sharp and hungry. "Our mother's little experiment. The ritual that saved Stella's life? It made her everything

"Mum."The word hung in the air like a grenade with its pin pulled. No one moved. No one breathed. The alarms seemed to fade to background noise as we all stared at the small boy crumpled at the bottom of the tank, his hand pressed against the glass, eyes fixed on Veronica.His lips formed the word again. "Mum."My grip on Veronica's throat loosened from pure shock. Her son? This was her fucking son?The moment my fingers relaxed, the boy's body convulsed. His back arched unnaturally, spine bowing as if something inside was trying to tear free. His mouth opened, he was screaming, one we couldn’t hear due to the glass. His eyes rolled back until only whites showed."Alexander!" Veronica surged forward, breaking free from my grip completely. I was too stunned to stop her. She slammed her palm against the tank's release mechanism, and the glass partition hissed open. She dropped to her knees, gathering the small, trembling body into her arms."He's dying," she choked out, cradling him ag

SilasI kept my back to the wall, eyes fixed on the doorway. The facility's infrastructure was failing—not just the security systems, but the fundamental design. Pipes burst somewhere in the distance, followed by the hiss of escaping gas. The concrete beneath my feet vibrated with tremors that seemed to come from deep underground.Four corridors connected to this medical bay. Four potential points of attack. If I'd had my wolf, I could have monitored all of them through scent alone. But now, all I had were human ears straining against the cacophony of alarms and distant screams.Behind me, Veronica worked frantically to stabilize her son. Her son. The revelation still hadn't fully registered. What kind of monster experiments on their own child?A crash echoed from the east corridor. My hand tightened around the makeshift weapon I'd fashioned from a broken IV stand."Status?" I called over my shoulder, not taking my eyes off the door."His vitals are stabilizing," Veronica answered, vo

The words hung in the air like poison gas."Are you trying to kill Stella so your son can live?""Do you prefer I say the truth, or lie to your face?"My chest hollowed out. Not from shock—shock required investment, required me to still give a fuck about my own survival. This was just... clarity. Final confirmation of what I'd suspected since waking up strapped to that table.I was never meant to leave this place alive.Alexander's monitors beeped steadily in the quiet that followed Veronica's confession. The child's face was peaceful in unconsciousness, skin flushed with returning color. Black veins had receded from around his eyes, his breathing deepened. Whatever Veronica had done was working.My own corruption throbbed in response. Black lines crawled past my shoulder now, reaching for my neck like hungry fingers. The pain had changed—not the burning of infection anymore, but something deeper. Something pulling at me from the inside, as if the corruption had hooks embedded in my v

SilasThe service tunnel stank of mildew and burnt wiring. My makeshift weapon—a metal rod pried from fallen equipment—felt woefully inadequate as we pushed deeper into the darkness. Water dripped somewhere ahead, the sound amplified by concrete walls that seemed to press closer with every step.Alexander's gurney rattled over uneven flooring, each jolt making me wince. The boy remained unconscious, but stable since Stella's inexplicable intervention. Whatever had passed between them had bought us time, but for what? I still couldn't wrap my head around Veronica's callous admission. Her willingness to sacrifice Stella to save her son.And Stella's equally unfathomable decision to help them anyway.She walked ahead of me now, close behind Angela who led our strange procession. The thin lab coat did little to conceal her naked form beneath, or the corruption's steady advance up her neck. Black veins pulsed beneath her skin with each heartbeat, the pattern shifting subtly when she passed

The gunshot echoed in the confined space, reverberating through metal walls like a thunderclap. Time stretched, distorted. I saw the bullet leave the chamber. Saw Silas try to dive sideways, too slow without his wolf's reflexes. Saw Angela's face, calm and focused, a scientist completing an experiment.And then—nothing.The world went black. Not the darkness of unconsciousness or death, but something deeper. A void. Empty of light, of sound, of sensation.Except I wasn't alone.About fucking time.Rona's voice—stronger than it had been in months, since that night in the temple when our connection had shattered. Not distant or fragmented, but present. Immediate.Where are we? I tried to look around, but had no body to turn, no eyes to see.Inside. Between. Does it matter? Her irritation was familiar, almost comforting. We're where we need to be to fix this shitstorm you've created.I didn't—Save it, princess. We don't have time for your guilt complex. Your sister's trying to kill your

The city walls appeared through the morning haze like a jagged wound in the landscape. What had been imposing two days ago now looked fragile—sheets of rusted metal held together by desperation and habit. Black smoke billowed from multiple points within, and even from this distance, we could hear the chaos—screams, gunshots, the unmistakable sound of things breaking."Something's wrong," Silas said, stating the obvious as he adjusted Alexander's weight in his arms. The boy had fallen unconscious again after our escape, his small body struggling to integrate the changes the partial transfer had initiated.Veronica checked his pulse for the twentieth time in as many minutes. "His condition is stabilizing, but he needs shelter. Proper medical attention."I studied the city through my transformed vision. The corruption had altered my left eye, splitting the pupil like a wolf's, enhancing my perception beyond normal limits. Through it, I could see energy patterns flowing through the wall—h

Model BehaviorBlood. So much blood.I jolted awake with a gasp, my body launching upright before my mind could catch up. Cold sweat plastered my silk nightgown to my skin. My heart hammered against my ribs like it was trying to escape. For a moment, I couldn't remember where I was.The nightmare clung to me like a second skin, but its details were already fading, slipping away like water through cupped hands. All I could grasp was a vague sense of dread and the lingering image of someone—myself?—staring back at me with my own face.I pressed my palm to my forehead, trying to slow my breathing. My apartment gradually came into focus around me—expensive minimalist furniture, floor-to-ceiling windows showing New York's glittering skyline, the kind of luxury I'd never imagined I could afford.This was real. This was my life now. Not whatever horror show my subconscious had conjured up.I swung my legs over the edge of the bed, my toes curling against the cold hardwood floor. The clock on

The negotiation continued—specific parameters, meeting protocols, decision thresholds, enforcement mechanisms. Throughout, Silas and I maintained unified position while Bond facilitated private consultation, strategy adjustments, response coordination. Williams proved adept negotiator, purpose-driven rather than ego-motivated, genuinely focused on sustainable structure rather than personal advantage.By session's end, preliminary framework had emerged—council composition, rotating leadership, specialized committees for distinct issues. The resulting structure would require refinement, formal approval from all coalition packs, implementation protocols once conceptual agreement solidified. But foundation had been established, path forward defined with sufficient clarity to present to broader coalition."Red River is satisfied with provisional framework," Williams concluded, professional respect evident in tone and posture. "We will support proposal during coalition assembly.""Blood Moo

My room appeared unchanged, personal space preserved despite transformation that had altered everything else. I moved through evening routine mechanically—shower to remove battle residue, clean clothes, basic sustenance. The silver lines remained visible despite relaxation, permanent now rather than manifestation of heightened emotion or power usage.Sleep proved elusive despite physical exhaustion. My mind raced with implications of day's events, possibilities and responsibilities transformation had created. The coalition would expect clear definitions, established parameters. The pack would need reassurance, guidance, transparency regarding changed leadership dynamics. And Silas...The bond pulsed in response to thought, connecting me to his similarly restless consciousness across pack house distance. He wasn't sleeping either, mind processing parallel concerns from Alpha's perspective. Leadership responsibilities, coalition politics, pack wellbeing—all filtered through lens of what

Blood. So much blood.I jolted awake, gasping for air, my sheets drenched in sweat. The same nightmare, again. Bodies littered across familiar grounds, the pack house engulfed in flames, and screams—endless screams that followed me into consciousness.My hands trembled as I reached for the glass of water by my bedside. Three nights. Three nights of the same visceral dreams since Sil as's visit. Each time, they felt more real, more urgent.'They're not just dreams,' Rona's voice echoed in my mind, stronger than she'd been in years. 'You know what they are.'"Shut up," I muttered, pressing my palms against my eyes. The digital clock on my nightstand read 3:33 AM. The witching hour. How fitting.'You can't ignore this forever,' Rona persisted. 'The blood of the pack—'"They're not my pack!" I snarled, throwing off my covers and stalking to the bathroom. The marble counter was cool under my palms as I leaned over the sink, trying to steady my breathing. But when I looked up, I froze.In t

I took a step closer, studying her more carefully now. Her sleeves were long despite the warm evening, and now that I was looking for them, I could see the edge of a bruise peeking out at her wrist. The concealer around her left eye was slightly heavier than the right, covering what was likely another bruise.Something in me shifted—not forgiveness, not yet, but the first small crack in the wall of hatred I'd built around memories of Bella."Why tell me this now?" I asked, my voice softer than before. "Why risk angering him by coming to me?"She met my eyes directly for the first time. "Because I think I know why you're connected to the curse. And I think I know why Silver Claw took Angela."That got my full attention. "How would you know anything about that?""I'm the pack historian now," she explained. "Have been for three years. I have access to the oldest records, texts most members never see. And I've been researching since the curse began.""And?" I prompted when she paused.Bel

The blade bit deeper into my wrist. Blood spilling blood onto the ice with a hiss. The ritual circle flared acid-green. My bones snapping, fingers stretching into talons. Angela slammed against the barrier again with enough force to make it rattle from its foundation, her claws leaving smears of her own blood on the shimmering air.“You think this makes you strong?” she shouted, voice raw. “You’re just its tool now!”I tried to answer, but my jaw cracked, tendons snapping as it unhinged. Venom dripped from fangs that hadn’t been there seconds ago. The taste burned my tongue—rot and iron. Vorath’s laughter vibrated in my chest, louder than my own heartbeat.Angela lunged sideways, hunting for a weak spot in the barrier. Her mutated arm lashed out, talons raking the ice near the edge of the circle. The green light flickered.“Clever,” I rasped, the words slurred around too many teeth. My left eye was gone, replaced by a wet, bulging orb that saw in heat and shadows. “But you’re too late

The bathroom mirror showed the toll of recent days—dark circles under my eyes, fading bruises from the perimeter fight, silver lines visible beneath my skin even at rest now. I looked like what I was becoming—something between wolf and weapon, neither fully human nor fully monster.The hot water helped, washing away blood and tension. I stayed under the spray until my skin pruned, letting the steam fill my lungs, blanking my mind. Temporary peace.It shattered when I stepped out to find Silas sitting on the edge of my bed."What the hell?" I clutched the towel tighter around me. "Ever heard of knocking?""I did. Three times." He didn't look away. "We have a situation.""Serious enough to invade my bathroom?""Pine Valley's pulling out too."That got my attention. "What? When?""Just now. Chen called. Same story as Red River—Logan made contact, offered terms, council voted.""Fuck." I sat heavily beside him, maintaining careful distance despite the emergency. "That's two packs in one d

I showered again, hotter this time, as if I could wash away the implications of what had just happened. The bond had needed release—that much was true. The supernatural tension had been building since the silver integration, threatening our focus, our control.But it wasn't just the bond. And pretending otherwise was a lie neither of us fully believed.I dressed in practical clothes for the briefing, hair still damp, silver lines faded but not gone. The pendant at my throat seems warmer now, responding to whatever changes were accelerating in my blood.The briefing room was crowded—remaining coalition representatives, pack fighters, medical teams. Silas stood at the head of the table, composed and focused as if nothing had happened between us. Only the bond betrayed him, humming with awareness whenever our eyes met."The situation has changed," he began without preamble. "Red River and Pine Valley have withdrawn from the coalition. Shadow Ridge is wavering. We must adjust accordingly.

Blood spattered across my face as I drove my knife into the hybrid's throat. Not a killing blow—these fuckers were resilient—but enough to buy me seconds. I twisted the silver blade, widening the wound, before kicking it back into the trees."Six o'clock," Silas called.I spun, dropping to one knee as another hybrid lunged overhead. It landed awkwardly, and I slashed across its hamstrings before it could recover. The silver blade cut through enhanced muscle and tendon, sending it crashing to the forest floor.The perimeter breach had turned out to be a scouting party—four hybrids, two human handlers with tactical gear. Test run, most likely. Probing our defenses before the eclipse."Clear on the east," Mason's voice crackled through the radio. "Two neutralized.""South perimeter clear," another voice confirmed.I finished the wounded hybrid with a knife through the eye socket—the most reliable way to kill them, we'd discovered. Silver to the brain. Nothing else stuck.Silas approached
