The Omega's Sweetest Revenge novel Chapter 27

CHAPTER 27: The Wicked Smirk

LILIAN BURSTED OUT in laughter when she saw that Mason almost passed out in his position right now. It seems like what she said is still registering in his head but he realized that she's just kidding.

Everyone who heard what she said didn't seem to find it funny. Instead, they remained silent as her laughter was the only thing that could be heard in the whole place.

When Mason finally recovered moments later, he smirked. "A-Are you sure, Luna? Do you know how to play archery?" he asked, masking his nervousness with what he said. Mason was actually uneasy. He knew that Lilian was not good at this. He had known her before and she's one of the Omegas he doesn't really like. Lilian is a hard headed omega, added the fact that she's also accused of being a thief by Gianna before.

It's still not registering to his mind that she's indeed alive after what he did before. He already admitted to his mistake before but seeing her like this now... as if she's taunting him and mocking him... it irritates the hell out of him. He can't just scold her like what he's doing before since he's now the new Luna of the pack. Alpha Karius already marked her. So, the best thing that he should do now is to lay low or else... Alpha Karius will punish him again.

Lilian suddenly smirked. "Actually... no." She lied, making Mason feel tense even more. "But I'm familiar with this game."

Her voice was teasing, as if playing archery was not a deadly game to someone who's not even playing it, that's what Mason thought in his head. He wanted to protest. He wanted to stop Lilian from doing what she wanted to do but he couldn't. He can't disobey Alpha Karius' Luna... the real Luna.

Mason cleared his throat. "Then you can use the board as the target instead."

Lilian shook her head. "No. I want you to be the target. Get an apple and put it on your head."

"B-But... Luna, you might hit me--"

"Isn't that cool? It will be much more fun if I hit your face instead." She cut him off from speaking with her most authoritative tone.

Mason wasn't able to speak after that and was just clenching his jaw. The other wolves who were hearing their conversation didn't say a word and were just staring at them but it was visible on their faces that they were shocked by what Lilian just said.

But then, the tension died down a bit when Lilian suddenly laughed again as she shook her head, like everything was just pure entertainment to her. Mason couldn't help but to clench his jaw again as his hand balled into fist.

"Just follow what our Luna wants you to do, Mason... or else, the Alpha will know about this," Calyx suddenly said, making Mason inhale air and tilt his head a bit. He then later on nodded his head. He can't mess up again. The last thing that he wanted to happen is to make Alpha Karius mad again. The last time that he was mad at him was... he doesn't want to remember it again.

But one thing is for sure. He doesn't want to waste this second chance again.

"Fine." Mason nodded as he got an apple placed on the side, at the top of the table, and walked towards the board and positioned himself there. Like what Lilian told him, he put the apple on his head and stood straight like a statue.

Lilian smirked when she saw that there's a hint of nervousness in Mason's face even from a few distance. He's not moving at all. She got the bow and arrow and scanned it curiously. It's almost the same as the one she's using back in Midnight Pack, so she's sure to herself that she could use it properly. She may not be the best player of archery in Midnight pack but at least, she knows how to hit the bullseye.

"A-Are you sure with this, Luna? You might really hit his head," Clarine said nervously to Lilian.

Lilian just smiled at her sweetly and didn't bother to reply to what she said anymore. She sighed and positioned herself to aim the target-- the apple on Mason's head. She stretched it and readying to aim the apple and not long enough, she released it smoothly. She never once trembled while holding the arrow so she was sure that the result was good.

And just what she thought, it hits the apple, making everyone gasps in amazement like they're not really expecting it to happen. They even clapped their hands making Lilian smile proudly at them all.

"Wow!"

"Our Luna can play archery!"

Meanwhile, Alpha Karius was staring seriously at Lilian but his wolf was really itching to touch him. But he can't since he could feel the barrier between them, and he doesn't want to just invade her personal distance just like that even though they already did more than that for a lot of times. What can he do? Lilian was just so effortlessly beautiful and sexy in her simple dress. It awakens the bulge in between his thighs but he's trying to stop himself.

"Calyx told me that you played archery earlier... and he also said that you've hit the target smoothly," Alpha Karius said, trying to strike a conversation between them.

Lilian stared at him before she put the glass on the sink and washed it. She turned around and saw his face. His expression instantly softened when he met her gaze.

"Yeah. I've been playing archery back then in Midnight pack. I trained with the other wolves there, so..." She shrugged her shoulders. "It was just easy for me to aim the target."

He nodded. "I see. I hope one of these days, I could train with you..."

She smirked. "Let's see about that. Aren't you busy with your Alpha duties?" she asked as she took a step closer towards his direction.

Lilian saw how his Adam's apple moved when she lifted her hands and held his broad shoulders. His eyes darkened when he looked closely at Lilian's face. She could smell his manly scent mixed with mint from his breath that made her almost forgot about the sudden idea came to her mind.

"I already did some of my duties the other day. I'm sure the next few days, my schedule will be free so I could accompany you if you wanted to roam around the pack again or if you wanted to train..." he said huskily. "Or... do you have any idea in mind? I'll be with you..."

"Hmm..." She acted like she was thinking something but the truth is, she's not. Lilian raised her hand a bit and held his neck, tracing the most sensitive spot. She caressed his skin there as she tiptoed to reach his ear, brushing her breast to his chiseled chest teasingly. She could feel how he's stopping himself from groaning from the way he gulped.

"Okay. If that's what you want, Alpha. But I know something that is more exciting than training and roaming around the pack," she said meaningfully as she looked down at his pants that's obviously grown a tent. Her hand went down to it and palmed it while looking at his eyes.

A wicked smirk formed on her lips. If this is the only way that she could fully wrap him around her fingers, then she would do it.
