All Chapters of Weakest Omega to Luna: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"Oh my goodness, girl, that is so sad." Lenny pulled Audrey into a hug.Audrey sniffled, delicately, in a way only she could manage to make look elegant. "I know. I can't believe I finally found my mate, and I can't be with him, because of school rules." She wiped at the corner of her eyes.Dr. Kylian. I thought of him being Audrey's mate, then quickly pushed the thought away. If he was, I'd be happy for her—wouldn't I? Besides, I had my own boyfriend now. I didn't know what it felt like to have your mate love you, but I knew exactly what it felt like not to."It's all right, Audrey," I said. "Even if you can't be in a relationship on campus, you can still meet off-campus. Him being a professor and you being a student doesn't have to control what the Moon Goddess already planned.” "Smart words, Lucia," Elodie said."I know. I just wish I could be like you and Tomi, move on campus be free about it. I don't want it to be weird." Audrey looked up. "By the way, do you know his name? If

The questions filling my mind went unanswered. I shivered where I sat on the ground, unable to breathe. Was this what a seizure felt like?I had spent so long trying to forget everything from Blackwood, the trauma, the memories, the rejection. Even when the images still lived in my head, I'd worked so hard to forget how they made me feel. But the man in the fedora had come and dredged up every part of my past, telling me I couldn't be happy, telling me I couldn't outrun where I came from.I wanted to crawl into bed, pull a blanket over my head, disappear. I had finally started being happy, and someone had walked up and simply taken it from me. "Luciana."I turned. Dr. Kylian was coming toward me, not from his office, but from another direction entirely his steps quickening as he got closer."Lucia, what happened to you?” I shivered, unable to speak. I didn't even notice the tears until they were already falling. I tried to talk, but my mouth wouldn't cooperate, and then his arms w

I didn't want Tomi to notice how worried I was, so I kept quiet through the drive, fiddling silently with my hands, hoping. Praying. If anyone from Blackwood found out I was dating Tomi, they would announce it to the whole pack within hours. I couldn't let him get dragged into trouble because of me.As his car neared the campus gate, my anxiety spiked. He parked, and I saw Cassidy waiting, alone.*Where was the person she'd mentioned?*Tomi rolled down the window and waved her over. I got out of the car, unable to sit still, needing to be sure no one else was with her, while also trying not to let him notice how worried I was."Where's the person you said was with you?" I asked, before she'd even reached us, scanning the area."Oh, she left already. Said something came up. You can meet her another time." Cassidy shrugged. "You seem really excited to meet someone from your pack, though. Must be nice, running into people you actually know."*Abigail.* If Abigail had seen me, if she was

I froze in shock. Did Cassidy's brother know Tomi was a werewolf? Was he a hater, like Xavier had been?The punch had landed clean. "Oh, Tomi!" I gasped from inside the car. Tomi rubbed his jaw with one hand, Cassidy still held firm in the other. "If you don't drop your fist," he said, calm and level, "I'm going to have to drop your sister." Tomi was tall, broad, and if Cassidy fell from that height onto concrete, it wouldn't be a soft landing.Her brother stepped back immediately. "Wait, you're not Xavier?" He squinted. "I thought you were Xavier. That psychopath who's obsessed with murdering werewolves.""You thought I was that scrawny little—" Tomi caught himself, though I'd never heard him swear before, and somehow it suited him. "Sorry. Long night.""Yeah, I guess I had a bit too much to drink," the brother admitted."You and your sister both," Tomi said dryly."Tomi," Cassidy slurred, clinging tighter to him.Her brother's eyes lit up. "Oh. You're the Tomi." He looked him over

"What's wrong?" I asked Tomi.He didn't answer right away. His eyes stayed fixed on my phone. "Play it again.""What?""The voice note," he said.I frowned, but pulled it up and played it again. His jaw tightened, and he let out a slow breath."I don't know," he admitted, looking genuinely unsettled. "My wolf just, reacted to her voice. That's never happened before."Tomi came from the Lexingtons, one of the werewolf lineages with a unique inherited ability, something beyond the usual Alpha, Beta, Delta hierarchy. What exactly it was, I had no idea; families like his kept that kind of thing sealed within the inner circle, the Alphas and Betas only. I had only ever find out if Tomi told me himself. But from the confusion still written across his face, I doubted even he knew what had just happened."Do you want me to play it again?" I asked, to be sure.He shook his head. "Don't bother. I'm probably overthinking it. Or it's something else entirely."I smoothed my hand through his hair
