The Omega's Sweetest Revenge

33. The Throbbing Pain

CHAPTER 33: The Throbbing Pain

"L-LUNA, AREN'T you going out? You need to see Alpha Karius right now, Calyx told me about it

earlier..."

Lilian glared at the helper who came to her while she's sitting on the sofa boredly. This is the second

time that the helper came to her and it honestly irritated her a bit since she just kept on saying the

same thing. The helper wants Lilian to go to the tree house even though it's really against his will.

"How many times do I have to tell you that I have no plans going there?" Lilian said sharply to the

helper as she rolled her eyes.

Heck, she will not go back to that place again. The tree house served as their meeting place before and

going back on that place will just make her remember her ugly and painful past. That is the place where

he lost her own little pup... and that is the place where Alpha Karius chose to end between the both of

them. It is where it ended everything. Her heart died in that place, too.

"I-I'm sorry, Luna,", the helper said as she bowed her head a bit, afraid of meeting Lilian's eyes. The

helper couldn't help but to feel nervous. Calyx informed her earlier to make the Luna go to the tree

house. But it seems like she can't do that anymore since the Luna made herself clear that she wouldn't

go there. She couldn't help but to wonder.

Lilian didn't respond anymore and just leaned back on the sofa again. After roaming around the garden

earlier and talking to Penny a bit, she suddenly felt tired as her neck ached, probably because of her

mark.

She keeps on ignoring it the past few days but the mark on her neck keeps on aching and she's having

a hunch that maybe because she hasn't given her mark yet to Alpha Karius. Thinking about it made her

lips pursed a bit. Well, she doesn't want to give him her mark. It was already a mistake that she let him

mark her so she doesn't need to repeat another mistake again.

Lilian once read before in old books that it's fine not giving her mark to her mate anyway. So, she opted

to not give it to Alpha Karius since it won't affect her. But she already forgot the other details since it

had been a long time since she read about the book on the mating process of the wolves. She didn't

pay that much attention to it anymore since it wasn't that important to her at that time.

But, why is her neck aching now? Is it just a normal stiff neck or what? But it's not healing. Is it

something else?

Lilian shook her head a bit before she rested her back on the sofa again, not noticing that she already

felt asleep.

"SHOULD WE WAKE her up?" one of the helpers asked Nadia when they saw Lilian peacefully

sleeping on the sofa.

Nadia sighed heavily. Maybe their Luna was tired of roaming around the garden earlier that she didn't

notice that she already fell asleep and forgot about going to the tree house where Alpha Karius asked

her to go.

"We should not. It looks like she's tired from earlier," Nadia answered. And besides, they are both

scared to wake Lilian up since they might get scolded. Nadia saw how she rolled her eyes on the poor

helper earlier. So, might as well leave her be on what she wants to do. Maybe Alpha Karius could

understand if she won't be able to go.

After being mean to them the past few days, Nadia didn't really make a big deal about it. She deserved

Lilian's bitchy side to her, after all. It's because of what she did in the past. And she's really regretting it

up until now.

"B-But it's our Alpha's birthday. He's waiting for her now..." the helper said sadly. Worry is now written to

her face.

Nadia didn't answer the helper anymore and looked at her. "Let's just continue cleaning the kitchen,"

she said coldly to the helper before she left her.

Meanwhile, the helper couldn't help but to feel sad for Alpha Karius when the rain suddenly started to

pour harshly. She suddenly felt worried about their Alpha. She just hopes that he's safe at this moment.

She couldn't help but to feel mad at their Luna... knowing that she ditched him on his very special day.

But no matter what she feels, it won't even matter because she's just a helper in the house.

***

LILIAN WOKE UP because of the coldness of the wind that kissed her skin. It slowly drew to her that

it's raining harshly outside. The curtains on the glass windows are dancing with the wind. There's no

electricity, probably because of the strong wind but it's a good thing that she could still see clearly in the

darkness because of her wolf.

Her brows furrowed when she saw that the helpers and Nadia were shouting near the entrance of the

mansion. Curiously, Lilian stood up to go in their direction to ask what's happening. Why are they even

there at this moment if it's this cold and raining so hard? They should be resting now.

"What's the matter?" she asked with her hoarse voice. She probably overslept since it was already dark

outside and she's guessing that it's probably nine or ten in the evening already.

"L-Luna!" they said in unison as they gasped.

The helpers together with Nadia looked at her with their widening eyes. Their expression is telling her

that they are about to cry. Her brows knitted even more, still clueless.

"A-Alpha Karius is still not here, Luna. It's already late but he hadn't come home yet. The rain and wind

is getting harsher! We just hope that he's fine." Nadia was the one who answered it with her worried

tone. Her both hands are clasped together like she's praying to the goddess for the safety of Alpha

Karius.

Lilian was shocked a bit on what she heard as her brows furrowed. He's not yet here? She looked

outside and the rain and wind was really harsh and thinking that maybe... he's still in the tree house

sent a pang of worry in her chest even if she doesn't want to.

Did he wait for her to go there? Goodness! He should know that she's not going there anymore! What's

gotten into him?!

She clenched her jaw at her own thought. If he's still not here, then what is it to her now? She should

not care! She should not take it as a big deal! He would do anything that he wants for all she cares!

Sighing, Lilian was about to turn her back when she saw a tall figure getting drench with the rainwater

going in their direction. It was Calyx. It looks like he did his best to go here quickly and didn't budge This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

with the coldness of the rain anymore.

"Beta Calyx!"

"Calyx, we're very sorry for disturbing you at this moment but we're getting worried for the Alpha..."

Nadia said worriedly as she held Calyx's hand, not minding how wet he was.

Calyx's gaze suddenly went to Lilian's direction making her suddenly shiver. He clenched his jaw as he

suddenly glared at her, making the helpers also shocked. It looks like he was threatening her through

his stares.

"You didn't fucking go to that damn tree house?" he asked with a hint of sharpness in his tone.

Lilian was moved by his tone that he stepped back a bit but she didn't show it that much and remained

compose like she's not affected at all.

"Why would I even go to that place--"

"Fuck it! If something bad happened to Alpha Karius... I swear, I'll fucking kill you."

"Beta Calyx! She's still our Luna!" one of the helpers shouted like she didn't like how he threatened

Lilian. It was a sign of disrespecting their Luna but he didn't mind it anymore. All he cares at this

moment is Alpha Karius who's still in the tree house. And based on the harshness of the wind and rain

now, there's a possibility that the tree house is not on its good shape already.

Lilian just held her chin up and met his mad expression darted to her, not planning to back down. He

was the one who first tore up their gazes and turned around before going to look for Alpha Karius.

Lilian looked outside again, suddenly feeling guilty about ditching Alpha Karius as time passed by. It

was the longest minutes of her life. She was playing with her own hands as she stared at the big bate

of the mansion. She doesn't know anymore what's suddenly gotten into her, that there's a part of her

that's waiting for Alpha Karius... to see him safe going back here.

They all straightened their backs when they saw two tall familiar figures going to them.

"Tss! I was fine there! You could've just let me!"

"Everyone is fucking worried about you! Of course, I'll go find you in your tree house! What a great day

to celebrate your damn birthday!"

The two men were bickering as they approached the entrance of the mansion. The helpers are already

holding towels to give to them. Nadia went to Calyx to give the other towel while the other helper went

to Alpha Karius.

Lilian was stoned in her direction when she saw Alpha Karius. It was his... birthday. And she forgot

about it. She suddenly felt the lump forming in her throat when her gaze met with Alpha Karius.

His expression hardened and clenched his jaw as he took the towel from the helper. Lilian wanted to

say a word but she just couldn't find the right words to say as she bit her lower lip.

She tried to open her mouth and decided to just go to him but before she could even do it, he already

walked beside her like he didn't feel her presence at all... like a damn invisible statue.

Lilian's heart throbbed in pain on what he did. Alpha Karius just ignored her... and it hurts.
