Chapter 8: Alpha's Revenge

“Lets pray to the Goddess that you’re able to talk to him then. Anyway, we’re wasting time and need to get this breakfast ready for when the dickhead and his minions come down for breakfast.” 

“Right. Okay, lets get finished with this as fast as we can. I have a lot more work to do today, and it will take me all day to finish.” 

“I’m going to help you and I know that a few other Omegas said to just call on them, and they’ll help too.” 

“You guys are the best and thank you so much for the help.” I pulled her in for a hug, and then we set off to finish cooking breakfast. 

By ten o’clock at night, I am finally dragging my tired body into my room for a shower. Though when I enter my room there is a surprise waiting for me. Why couldn’t I smell him in my room before entering?  

“Fredrick?” I ask. 

“Yeah, its me.” 

“Where have you been? I thought you died in the attack. Are you alright? Why do you smell different? You don’t smell like a rogue though.” 

“I’ve been with another pack. Ramsey tried to have me killed so that I couldn’t come back to tell you there was a double cross. He is the one responsible for getting your parents killed.” 

“Yeah, I know. I would have killed him but the Moon Goddess said that it wasn’t time yet. Also, I got my wolf at 15, which is early even for Lycans, but my wolf told me that the Goddess said I’d need her to get through the next few years, so I was granted my wolf early. I won’t be able to feel my mate until I’m 21 though. I’m okay with that because I don’t have time for a mate right now. They would only try to talk me out of avenging my parents and just move on and settle down with them, but I’m not letting that happen. They will all pay for their crimes. Were any of our people involved?” 

“A few warriors, but they are dead. The ones that left with me to chase the rogues were all working for him. It was to lure me out of the pack so that your father and mother were left without help when he made his move on them. I should have known something was off. I’m so sorry that I failed you and your parents that day.” He looked down in sadness. 

“Don’t feel sorry because you did not fail me or them. You were a great Gamma and did what you thought was right in chasing the rogues out of here. How could you have known that Ramsey would betray us? Nobody knew. He’s really after the companies, but I won’t give them to him. He has been growing more desperate, and today I found out why. He owes the rogues the other part of their payment. Nobody but my parents and I knew that if anything happened to them, I would inherit the companies, but I could appoint a designated guardian to take over for me until I turn 18. When he found out, he was furious and has been trying to get me to appoint him ever since, but I won’t, and he is running out of time to pay them.” 

“Your father was always a clever wolf.” He chuckles. 

“Oh, but it gets even better. If something happens to me, then the companies are to be liquidated and the money goes to charities, so he can’t even kill me to take them. He turned so red with anger when he found that out.” I laughed quietly, and he laughed for a minute before his face turned serious again. 

“Leave with me. We can gather an army and come back to take the pack back. The pack that I have been living with would take you in, I’m sure. We won’t tell them who you are though, for safety reasons. Or we could just head straight to the royal pack and see if we could get an audience with the king. That’s a long shot without actual evidence of what happened, but I’m sure my testimony would help and if whoever told you about him paying the rogues would testify too, that would help. Do you think they’d testify?” He asks me with hope in his eyes. 

“I won’t go to another pack, but I’ll leave with you to go to the royal pack. We’ll have to figure out a way to get me out of here and get this damn collar off of me.” He goes to grab it but I stop him. “No! Don’t touch it or it’ll burn you. This thing is made of silver and if tampered with it will shock me. There is a range on it though, so if I can make it to the middle of the forest surrounding our pack, I can try to remove it then. Now, how do we get out of here?” 

**Chapter4 (The Escape)** 

The rest of the night Fredrick and I went over the plan to get me out of there. I went to Ally’s room and told her to come back with me to mine to discuss something important with her. She agreed and we walked back into my room. Fredrick started to act a little funny when she entered and the entire time she was telling us what she knew, he just kept staring at her. I just figured he thought she was pretty, so I thought nothing of it at the time. When she was done talking, we all agreed that her testimony could very well help us. I didn’t mention the evidence that I had just in case it turned out that Fredrick was lying to me. So far, I hadn’t smelled any lies or deceit coming from him, but maybe he was a good actor like Ramsey.
