Maverick POV

Odessa lay beside me with her fingers resting in front of her lips and her curly red hair draped over her shoulders. It was the perfect sight. I opened my bedside drawer and pulled out my Polaroid camera.

I leaned back to take the perfect shot before she woke up.

“Great,” I murmured.

My phone buzzed on the nightstand.

I snatched it before it startled Odessa. It was Storm’s number.

What did he want this early in the morning? I climbed out of bed because I knew my friend was in some kind of trouble.

I wandered into the kitchen to take the call in private.

“Dude,” I said into the phone.

“Hello? Alpha Maverick,” a woman responded.

Oh shit.

“I’m Nurse Katie from Daciana Medical. You’re Storm’s second emergency contact. His father is out of service.”

“He’s in the hospital? What happened?” I yelled.

I paced the kitchen, raking my hair. No, this can’t happen.

“He was in a car accident in the early hours of the day. He’s in recovery.”

“I’ll be right there.”

I hung up. If Barnette’

I take it that it's from a different team wanting to win, but they can't as long as three of them work together.

  • The Quarterback's Omega Mate   Chapter 69

    Maverick POVI shifted out of my wolf skin as soon as I set foot on the pack house soil. The private dungeons were under the house. We had to take a tunnel to get to them. They were reserved for the worst criminals and deadliest secrets.Of course, they would bring her here.The council sent men to hold me up. Four against one in the dining hall. While they snatched my mate! Storm was locked in the showers! The football team had to fight off the beta army to get Storm out.Once I fought off the four betas, it was too late. Odessa was gone.When it rained, it poured. Now I couldn’t feel her wolf.“Alpha Maverick,” the omegas said, bowing as I burst into the house.“WHERE IS SHE?” I roared as I veered into the living room,“Maverick, calm down, I just put your brother down for a nap,” my mother said.“I don’t give a fuck!” I yelled.“Maverick, that’s enough!” Seth yelled.I took in the four council members in the living room. They were plotting against me! I closed the distance between

  • The Quarterback's Omega Mate   Chapter 68

    Odessa POV“We should have known it was impossible for an omega to be fated to an Alpha. It was all a ruse,” Higgins uttered with disdain.“Get this thing off of me!” I cried.After I was forced into the back of a black, tinted SUV, Trevor bound my wrists with zip-ties and threw a black plastic bag over my head that reeked of fish!Higgins yanked the plastic bag off my head before shoving me into a cold, damp box-like room with metal bars for a door.“I haven’t done anything to Maverick. This isn’t fair! What happened to innocent until proven guilty?”Higgins frowned. “You are guilty.”“No, I’m not! You and your council don’t even know half the number of times Maverick was hurt.”“Is there something you would like to tell us, then?”I blinked a few times and bit the inside of my cheek.“For all we know, you could have orchestrated this.”I banged my hands on the metal bars. “You can’t do this.”“We’re the pack council. We have to protect the Alpha heir.”“No, you’re hypocrites. Whose

  • The Quarterback's Omega Mate   Chapter 67

    Odessa POV I was on a mission to find Sienna at work the next day after I met Ryder at the bar. Things could easily go sideways when I confronted her about the silverleaf, but I had to try before involving Storm.I found her in the gym, in her petite gold and white practice cheerleader uniform.“There you are,” I breathed out.Luckily, the gym was empty.“What do you want?” She asked.“We have to talk. Don’t take this the wrong way,” I said.Sienna frowned. “I already am.”I shut my eyes and exhaled. “It’s about the silverleaf. Ryder told me.”She crossed her arms. “I take silverleaf and bloodroot every morning. So what? It’s to help my wolf not get sick.”“That’s not true. Those two plants don’t heal or protect. If you wanted to keep your wolf from getting sick, you should have been taking rosemary and elderberry. Sienna, you have no idea what you’ve done.”I yanked on my ponytail and paced to the treadmill. “Look, it’s none of your business, so butt out! Got it?” She snapped.“Ho

    Odessa POVMaverick and I went out to get buffalo wings for dinner at Brewster bar. The place my alleged uncle owned. It had become more of a Daciana Devil spot, but Maverick liked this place and wasn’t scared off by a few oppositions.“Now tell me again what Trevor said so I can bash his head in the next time I see him,” Mav said after we put in our orders.I sighed and placed my cheek in my hand.We wore matching Daciana Wildcat hoodies!I liked doing normal stuff like this. Going on dates, wearing matching hoodies and ordering one milkshake to share!No one was being chased or hurt. It was nice to have a serene moment with my boyfriend.The corners of his mouth raised. “What are you thinking about, Wildcat?”I smiled. “About how normal this feels. It’s just a date.”“I’ll take you out more from now on, I promise.”“I’ll hold you to it,” I said.Maverick and I sat by a booth which was against the large window, giving us the perfect view of the quiet evening street.As the night went

  • The Quarterback's Omega Mate   Chapter 65

    Odessa POVI lingered in the waiting area while Maverick went on the hunt for information on his friend. Gage was alive, which was the most important thing.“Anything?” I asked as Maverick marched towards me.He shook his head.“Gage’s dad kicked me out of the hospital.”“What? You didn’t try to kill your friend!”“The guy hates me, and I hate him. Gage’s doing better, but I can’t see him right now.”“So, what else did you find out?”Mav took my hand and led me to a seat. “I spoke to the pack doctor.”“And?”“He’s reporting the incident to the council, and they’re going to investigate. It wasn’t ordinary poison. It seems it’s the same poison that killed my grandmother, just in a smaller dose.”“What?” My jaw dropped open. “I thought your grandmother, Luna Miracle, was murdered by witches.”He rubbed his hands and nodded. “She was.”Luna Miracle was beloved by all. She was the first Luna to rule without an Alpha until Maverick’s Father, Alpha Markus, came of age. I wasn’t born when she

  • The Quarterback's Omega Mate   Chapter 64

    Odessa POV“Any news?” Sienna asked as soon as she got off the elevator.Maverick and Storm exchanged hopeless and defeated glances.I sighed. “No. He passed out. The pack doctor just got here.”“Like he’s in a coma?” Sienna gasped. “How did this happen?”“We have no idea,” Maverick mumbled.I battled the urge to lift my legs to my chest and bury my head between my knees. If Gage and I were never fated, this wouldn’t have happened.His friends wouldn’t be worried sick about him.The elevator doors opened. A man with pale, striking, bluish-grey eyes marched out with fierce determination.Maverick and Storm immediately straightened up.“Where’s my son?!” He demanded.“Gage’s with the doctor’s he’s being monitored,” Storm replied.Maverick watched Mr Raven with seriousness in his eyes, but he didn’t say anything.st“Nothing’s ever happened to Gage. I know you two have something to do with it,” Mr Raven spat.How dare he accuse Gage’s best friends of trying to hurt him?Maverick scoffed.
