The Stained Omega by Elle T Jefferson novel Chapter 98

Whispers.
(Anna)
“Shush, you don’t want to wake the Omega up. The longer she’s asleep the more time we get with Alpha Fraction.” Laid in bed I hear the hushed whisper from outside my door, now that I’m around wolves full time again it is impressive how quickly my wolf instincts have come back to me.
“Please, he’s her mate. He won’t even look twice at us,” I hear another female voice supply. I don’t know the people in the Grey Pack well enough to know who they are but they are clearly talking about me and Fraction.
“She’s here because he’s back at Swiftmane f ucking his mistress, I heard they were real cosy at their Pack run last week.” The hairs on the back of my neck go on end at the mention of Fraction getting friendly with Faye. I know our connection has weakened but I never thought he would stoop so low, raising my hand to the mate mark on my neck I can feel it’s already faded to the point of a tiny scar, soon it will be gone completely.
“Exactly, he already has his bit on the side. You don’t stand…” The female voice is cut off by a male one before she manages to finish.
“What you bit ches gossiping about?” I hear Jefferson call out, he sounds close so he must be up and about finally.
“Nothin,” two voices sound at the same time as feet shuffling along the floor sounds, clearly he’s run them off. I don’t know if to thank him or to smack him, I want to know more about Fraction but I also don’t. My mind is all over the place, I don’t know what I want. I feel like I’m in

the middle of the ocean and I don’t know which way to swim to get back to land.
Pulling the cover over my head I try to bury myself in the soft sheets. when a knock sounds on the door, with a groan I throw the covers back off me.
“Yeah?” I shout out without moving from the bed, I’m dressed in a blue night shirt and sleep shorts so I pull the cover over my legs just as Darryl walks into the room with Mac. “Little early for a meeting isn’t it?” I ask them as Mac closes the door behind him.
“I thought you might like to know that Fraction is coming tonight, he wants to see you, see how you’re doing.” Darryl says while taking a seat at the end of my bed.
“Is he bringing Thomas?” I ask him instantly, at least I know part of what the girls were whispering about was true.
“Not this time, he’s leaving him with Eliza.” I scoff at this, Eliza my as s. My son is probably with Faye if what the whispering females were saying was true.
“Ok, anything else?” Darryl just looks at me and then over at Mac before sighing.
“I thought you would be happy to see him? He is still your mate Anna.” Flipping my hair over my shoulder I show Darryl and Mac my fading mate mark.
“Does this look like he’s still my mate? I have no interest in hearing about his life with Faye. If you want to tell
u can do it. Until Fave is gone…well he do about the
e contract thr need me does he?” I
know I sound like a child but I’m hurt by all of this and no one seems
to understand that.

“Alright, then.” Darryl says standing from the bed, he looks at me once more before nodding at Mac and leaving the bedroom. I just look over at Mac who seems to be studying me with a look of pure concentration- on his face.
“What’s wr
Wrong Mac?” I ask him as I start to grow uncomfortable with the way he’s looking at me, I pull the covers further up myself in a bid to try and cover any part of me that’s showing.
“Ski p training today, you look tired.” He says before leaving the room, as he leaves I hear a jingle and notice his car keys on the floor.
“Mac, wait…” I call out as he closes the door, there is no way he didn’t hear me. Which means the keys on purpose, I give it a
bed minute to make sure he’s not coming back before I climb out of my bed. and pick up the keys. It’s a simple black key fob with a fold out key part and a little wooden wolf keychain. I’m not sure why he left the keys here or gave me the day off training but my brain is instantly working on a plan. If I can get to Mac’s car without being seen I can be gone before Fraction gets here and if I can get to Swiftmane I can then get Thomas and leave before anyone realises what’s happened.
I walk to the cupboard and grab a backpack, while throwing clothes into it I realise my biggest struggles will be getting out of Grey Pack and into Swiftmane. This Pack house is always rammed with people and there is no way I’m getting out of here without being noticed. I don’t think Darryl will just let me stroll out of the Pack house and get in a car, I suppose I could make up a lie about needing to go to the mall. It sounds lame even in my own head but I have to try, if Darryl figures out what I’m doing then he will warn Fraction and I dread to think what the punishment would be.
With my bag packed, I quickly change out of my sleepwear and put on some leggings and a sports bra with a hoodie over the top. Comfy clothes for drawing but also clothes that will come off easily if I need

Winter’s help. Slinging the backpack over my shoulder I take a deep breath and leave the comfort of the guest bedroom I’ve been staying in. Once I’ve left the bedroom I don’t hang around, I walk quickly without running. Once I’m in the main hallway I keep my head down and push against the people coming and going, before even realising it I am outside and not one person stopped me. I don’t hang around to marvel at how easy it was, I instead head straight for Mac’s car, I do a quick scan of the area and when I don’t see anyone looking my way I open the drivers side door and jump inside.
I look up the Grey Pack house as I’m reversing down the driveway, I see a curtain move on the second floor. There from the window is at grim faced Jefferson, he looks better but still covered in cuts and bruises, he waves down at me once before pulling the curtain back in place. I don’t know if he will tell Darryl that I’ve left so I put my foot on the gas and speed out of the Pack without looking back.
“This is a bad idea,’ Winter sing-songs from the back of my mind.
“You’re the one always telling me to put on my big girl panties and do things for me. Well I’m doing it, so you can sit down and shut up.’ I
nap at her as we hit the highway, putting my foot down I make the car speed up. I don’t plan on stopping until Thomas is in my arms.
