บททั้งหมดของ The Omega Best Friend : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Gabbie POV I watched her sleep. It sounded creepy, but I was her mate it didn’t count with me. I brushed her strawberry hair from her face. She was glowing. I smirked. I didn’t expect her to break into the alpha castle. I was shocked when she burst into my room. It turned me on. Her expression when she saw me naked was even better. I thought I’d have to stay mad at my little omega for the whole day but I couldn’t stay mad at her eyes.She rolled on her back and rubbed her eyes. She looked around the room as if she had forgotten where she was then her green eyes landed on me. She blinked a few times. Gosh, Gabbie was gorgeous and so tempting, how I had gone this long without mating her was insane.“Hey, sweetheart,” I said.“Hey… how long have I been out?”“An hour, why?”“I missed a class.” She sat up, holding the sheets to her chest.I growle

Gabbie POV “Hey, what are you doing around here?” Alex appeared, stopping me in my tracks. He stood under the orange sky. Shoulders back and hands shoved in his pockets as he walked toward me.I tugged my coat around myself and stared at the rocks near my feet. Alex caught me going to the Alpha castle to see Kade. I hadn’t expected to bump into him.“Going for a walk. Trying to clear my head.” I shrugged.He closed the distance between us. The wind zipped through us, sending the scent of his cologne straight to my face. “That all, Gabbie? You don’t come this close to the castle.”“Yeah,” I swallowed the lump in my throat.“Mind if I join you then?”I shot a quick glance at the castle. Kade’s room was on the other side. I nodded, so much for seeing Kade tonight. Maybe this was the opportunity I needed to tell Alex the truth.He bumped my shoulder on our walk away from the castle. The action felt normal for friends, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that things had changed between us.

My father waited for me in Athena’s office. My father wasn’t the type for social visits. I hadn’t seen him in six months. When I walked into the office, he cracked a smile. He wasn’t the type to smile often. I didn’t know which way to interpret this.“Son, you look good.”“Dad, what are you doing here?”He reclined on Athena’s chair like he owned the place. He might as well, considering the amount of money Sanders' pack donated to the academy.He chuckled and stood, “Kade, always straight to the point. How are your preparations for the battle season? You haven’t come home for your ritual.”My father had started going grey, and the laugh lines around his eyes were defined. He was counting on me to take over as alpha as soon as I graduated.“I don’t need to do that, Dad.”“You were intent on it a few months ago,” Dad raised his br

Gabbie POV“Don’t worry, love, you’re safe now. Get comfortable, it’s going to be a long bus ride,” The man driving the worn-down bus smile.“They aren’t going to come after us?”He shook his head, “We’ll be fine.”I dozed off. Kade was an Alpha wolf, and those were his pack members; they wouldn’t kill him. I had to convince myself they hadn’t injured or killed my mate. I couldn’t kill the fear of never seeing him again, though.I woke as the bus screeched to a halt, jolting me forward. I rubbed my eyes and peered round the seat to the windscreen. I caught sight of trees illuminated by front porch lights. The house next door was black with only the light from the neighbours shining on it.“This is your stop, dear.”I swallowed. “Are you sure?”He nodded. The bus doors opened. I didn’t have a bag to carry. All I had remained at the academy.“Take care,” the bus driver said.I nodded and gave him my thanks. I rubbed my hands as I walked to the front door. The light from the neighbour’s

Gabbie POVI almost forgot we had an attic. Searching for anything up there in a house without power at night wasn’t wise. Kade and I shackled up there, going through boxes, many of which needed to be tossed out. The roof had a leak, which damaged most of the cardboard.I watched Kade sit on a rickety camp chair that was hanging on for dear life. He pulled out the damaged file after the damaged file. He slapped the next file on the ground and leaned back on the chair. I cracked a smile and went back to the pictures in my hand. I tilted my head at the next one. Most of them were photos of Mom and I, but the one I held was of a man I hadn’t seen in years, beside him stood a man I knew from town.“Kade… I know this man next to my Dad.”“Yeah?”“He owns a hardware store in town. I mean, I hope he hasn’t skipped town either.”“Want to head over there?”I sucked my bottom lip. What if I didn’t like what I found out? I wouldn’t know until I found out. I slipped into the passenger seat of Kad
