Chapter 179
The Stained Omega
âWhere are you taking me?â Itâs not until I was sitting in Ericâs truck that I realised he has no idea where
I live. I know I shouldnât want to go back to Jeremy but I have nowhere else to go and I just know that if
I donât go back the punishment when he catches me will be worse.
âI have a small cabin just on the edge of town. Iâll take you there.â Eric stops at a traffic light on main
street and I seriously consider tucking and rolling from the truck.
âTake me home, I live on Wilkshire Road.â Apparently Iâm making all kinds of great decisions today,
leaving a hospital while still in pain. Check. Telling a random rogue where I live, double check. Eric
looks at me with a perplexed expression before he nods his head and puts his foot down sending the
truck forward.
It isnât until the turn off to mine and Jeremyâs home that the panic starts to rise up within me. Iâm not
ready to take another punishment, I can feel the pain still within me, Iâve not finished healing from what
Cyrus did to me. My chest hurts with every breath, my head is pounding a drum and for some reason
my left eye hurts like someone is trying to stick a knife into it. I expect Eric to ask me which house but
instead he pulls into a dirt road and stops the truck, taking the keys from the ignition he turns to me. His
soft hazel eyes pierce me as he furrows his brow and shakes his head.
âMake me understand why you would go back to him.â He tilts his head to the side a little like heâs
trying to read my mind, âit was him

right? The human you live with, heâs the one who did this?â I donât answer him, instead I look down at
my hands and pull the chequered shirt further along my thighs. âI know how heâs doing it,â Eric leans
forward, placing his nose inches from my hair he sniffs. âI can barely sense your wolf so I understand
how heâs able to hurt you like this but youâre a smart girl Eva, why let him?â
âYou donât know me.â I appreciate Ericâs help in getting me away from the hospital and Selena but the
truth is I barely know the man.
âMaybe not but Iâm a pretty good judge of character. And I also know that there is nothing a woman can
do to be subjected to this kind of abuse from someone who claims to love them.â Eric tries to put his
hand on top of mine but I flinch away from him. I donât want to be touched right now and especially not
by a man who thinks he knows me so well.
âI deserve what he does to me, I asked for it.â Eric just looks at me with sad eyes, he shakes his head
and waves his hand in an up and down motion.
âYou asked for this? That female shifter had you in a medically induced coma for four f ucking days
because of a bleed on your brain. It took your wolf three days to fix the minor damage that man did to
you.â Eric slams his hands down on the steering wheel, I jump a little as it creaks under his weight.
âWhy do you even care? I barely know you, you certainly donât know me.â Slowly I feel for the door
handle, once I feel the cold metal in my fingers I pull it. The door opens making me tumble from the
truck, Eric doesnât move he just watches me stand up and brush the dirt from me.
âEveryone needs someone Eva, Iâm going to start marking the way to my cabin. If you need a place to
go just follow my scent.â I donât say anything as Eric starts up his truck, leans over and pulls the

door closed and drives away, leaving me watching after him.

It isnât until Ericâs truck is totally out of view that I realise Iâm standing in the middle of a dirt road in
nothing but a hospital gown and a manâs chequered shirt. I know which way is home but I canât seem to
make my feet move in that direction.
âBehind you.â I look to my left but I canât see who spoke, as far as I can tell Iâm alone. Spinning in a
circle I get the distinct impression Iâm not alone, I can practically feel the eyes on me.
âI know someone is there, come out.â Although I try to sound brave but my voice comes out all shaky, I
take a quick step back as a massive slate grey wolf steps out just to the right of me. A quick sniff tells
me this is no ordinary wolf, itâs a shifter and going off the smell of soft leather and sea salt tells me that
the slate grey wolf with yellow and grey eyes is Cas.
âWhy are you here? Being your wolf is going to make this pretty one sided.â I cross my arms over my
chest, I donât know where my bravery has come from but Iâm getting kind of tired of being a victim.
The wolf just stares at me for a minute before he starts to vibrate and then I hear the sound of bones
clicking just before Cas is standing before me. Completely naked.
âOh.â Turning my back I try to block the image of Cas naked and sweating from my mind.
âWhy didnât you go with him?â Ca sâs nakedness doesnât seem to bother him as he immediately starts
to question me.
âWhy would I? I donât know him.â I keep my back to him and look at a tree just in front of me instead.

âHe could have taken you away, I had no idea what that human was doing to you.â I feel him take a
step closer to me so I quickly spin around and hold up my hands. I donât know why but I seriously donât
want this Alphaâs hands on me while heâs naked.
âI donât need protection but then again you have had eyes on me for a while now right? Nice work on
Selena, sheâs an amazing liar.â I think itâs safe to say Iâm feeling a little salty about my only friend
turning out to be someone who was made to spy on me.
âIâm sorry about Selena, at first I had no idea who the rogue was. When I found out it was you, I wanted
to make sure you were safe.â I canât stop the hysterical laugh that barks from my mouth.
âSafe? You lied to me and filled my life with lies and for what? If you thought I was that much of a
problem you would have chased me away like any other rogue.â Cas snarls at me so I slam my mouth
closed, it seems Iâve pushed him too far.
âI do what I do because I know not all rogues are bad. If I was any other Alpha you and Eric would
already be run out of this town, instead Iâm letting the both of you live your lives.â I start to speak but
Cas has me stopping with another angry snarl, âNow things have changed. I didnât realise how
repressed your wolf was, if she canât help you then I will. You canât be a rogue without a wolf to protect
you, hell a da mn human almost beat you to death.â
âI donât need your protection, Iâm fine on my own. Iâm right where Iâm supposed to be.â I try to sound
strong but there is a pressure pushing down on my shoulders, itâs begging me to kneel, to submit but I
refuse. Shaking my head I try to make the presence move but instead it just pushes harder, Cas is
gritting his teeth as another snarl leaves his mouth.
âWhy wonât you submit?â He sounds almost proud that I wonât bend to

his will, âyou need to come with me. Eva, please. You canât go back to him.â
Taking a few steps back I keep my eyes on Ca sâs chocolate brown ones, shaking my head I make it
clear that Iâm not going with him.
âIâm not going back to him and Iâm not coming with you.â I wasnât aware I had made the decision to
leave until right this very second, if I canât be punished for what I did then Iâll impose my own prison on
myself.
âYouâll go to the rogue?â I shake my head again as I feel the leaves crush beneath my feet.
âJust leave me alone.â I turn my back on Cas, barefoot and barely dressed I run into the trees. I donât
look back to see if heâs following me, I just run as fast as my legs will take me. I keep running until I
canât run anymore, I canât hear the cars on the road anymore and I canât sense anyone around me.
Seeing a small cave I carefully crawl into it and curl myself into a ball, crying as I watch the sun start to
rise through the trees.
