53–Key to Pandora’s Box.

ALPHA REX.

The old Gamma blinked back at me, her mouth opening and closing as evidence of her shock at my words. I expected that much from anyone who knew me and what I was capable of, especially with the events that have happened in the last few days.

“Alpha, you want me to train Eudora to take care of you?“

I didn’t want to repeat it because it was more bearable to think about it in my head than for me to say it out loud but I was going to be doing that a lot and I needed to get used to it.

“Yes, that is exactly what I meant.” I said and added, “She will take over from you as my caregiver.”

“But…I thought—”

“This changes nothing, Lillian. I still feel the same way about her but I need her around.”

I left it at that. Not that the Gamma would question my authority or decision but I was done with the look of pity everyone gives the Omega like I was the bad person here. Granted, I never believed I was good, heck, I’m not even close to it but that doesn’t make it less frustrating tha
