All Chapters of The Omega's Promise : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

DEXTERA “Please, I want these cleaned up and dried.” I beckoned on one of the cleaning maids working in the Alpha's kitchen. “I wouldn't like the Alpha to make a single complain or be uncomfortable.” I added and walked to the other end of the kitchen where the new cooking items which Thor's lead chef recently brought in were arranged. “Sure, ma'am.” The new maid replied before scurrying off to clean the wet place I pointed out. She had just been appointed to work in the Alpha's quarters, kudos to Thor who requested a change of all previous working maids in his mansion from Madam Sansa. A broad smile pulled at my lips soon after, as I recalled the reason he gave. __________ FLASHBACK Outside the Sanctum... Thor's announcement rooted me to the spot and I forgot every other thing surrounding me. For real, it came to me as a total shock. Nothing in Thor's speech or action before that trial prepared me for it. For a brief moment, happiness coursed through me. Then it dawned on me

DEXTERA The feeling of fear suddenly crept into me in fresh waves at the mysterious game playing out. “Who’s there?” I questioned again as I planted my feet firmly on the cold ground of the training arena, scanning every shadow and every rustle of leaves. Yet, there was no answer. I clenched my fists, crouching into a fight-ready stance. “Show yourself right now, or I swear, it won't bode well for you.” The familiar burn of adrenaline pulsed through me. From the corner of my vision, movement flickered as I raced stealthily around the wall backs on the training grounds which the person was shielding him or herself with. “I repeat, show yourself!” I tried to sound intimidating by deepening my voice which came out as a frustrated mewl instead. Before I could pass any more threats, a tall figure stepped behind me and I flinched, almost losing my footing. I spun around, and my gaze landed upon Deucalion. “Hell no! What are you doing here?” I nearly squealed in relief. In no tho

DEXTERAWas that a threat? That was the first thought to cross my mind after her strong utterance. The words hit harder than any slap ever could.Absolutely, she was right. Someone as influential and powerful as Thor wouldn't want a weakling up close. Yet, something in me wouldn't just settle for the fact that she blurted such statement to me in that manner.The audacity!However, instead of snapping back, I swallowed it all. Every sting. Every insult. Every doubt she tried to force into my bones.After all, she had just handed me something more valuable than pride; a challenge aimed to shape me into a better, more powerful person.“Fine,” I said at last. “Let’s see if I’m really as weak as you think.”Freya’s brow arched, like she hadn’t expected compliance so soon. But the smirk returned almost instantly.“Good,” she muttered. “Because I don’t train liabilities.”She turned around and began walking, motioning for me to follow. We reached the physical conditioning area and she took a

DEXTERAI wasn't sure I heard him right. I replayed his voice several times in my mind, but I heard the same thing. I. Love. You. There was no way in hell I expected that when he said he wanted us to talk. His confession took me off guard completely.On impulse, I uttered the very first thing that came to my mind.“Wow. That must have taken a lot of courage.” “You bet.”I clucked my tongue and wrapped my arms around myself. “But I'm strongly repulsed by the idea.”Deucalion's brow furrowed in shock, but he wasn't one to back down. He further expressed his thoughts. “I meant what I said, Dextera.” He said. “And I would really appreciate if you take a moment to think about it before giving just any response.”I huffed and my shoulders shrugged in surrender. “There’s nothing for me to think about, Beta Deucalion. Honestly, I'm flattered, but I'm sorry to say...your emotions have been misguided all along.”I paused for a moment, allowing my words to sink in. “I have no idea when or h

THORThick silence lingered between Maddox and me before I finally spoke.“Has anything happened before this that I wasn't made aware of?” I questioned.Maddox held my gaze for a moment. Something changed in his expression, subtle enough that I might have missed it if I didn't know him as well as I did.“Actually, there is something else,” he admitted.He set his glass down carefully.“And it concerns me more than the revolt.”I studied him.“More than four Alphas potentially moving against the throne?”He nodded.“I've been handling it quietly. Or at least, I've been trying to.” He paused. “But I haven't been able to get anywhere with it.”That caught my attention.It was rare for Maddox to admit that he had reached a dead end. He was one of the strongest, most strategic people I knew, and he rarely allowed a problem to remain unsolved for long.“What exactly are you dealing with?”“Reports came from several packs about increased wolf disconnections.” He leaned back a bit. “At first,
