The Omega For Sale

Greyson’s POV:

Watching the absolute love of my life as she slept had to be one of the most peaceful and enjoyable things to ever exist. Everything around me felt warm and fluffy and the intoxicating scent of Freya kept my entire frame calm.

I reached out a hand and begun stroking Freya’s swollen belly, the warmth of the skin there was blissful. I stifled a laugh when the blonde haired woman groaned before she reached out a hand to swipe at my troubling fingers.

I let her be, since I didn’t want to disturb her sleep. That would spell a lot of trouble for me. Instead I scooted closer to her before bending to place a kiss on her forehead.

Her eyes moved behind her lids but she didn’t wake up, instead she smiled happily before sighing in what I could only describe as bliss. I hoped that she was having the most pleasant dream in the world.

I couldn’t believe it even after Clara had confirmed Freya’s pregnancy. For days and days after then, my mind still spun with the information. But every time that I caught sight of Freya’s growing belly, it felt like it solidified it more and more and now it was hard to ignore.

Jessy was my first child but I missed the first crucial three years of her life, I missed the pregnancy, the delivery and that hurt me so much. I was determined to fix it. No matter what it cost, I knew that I had to be more than present this time around. I might not be able to go back in time and fix the past but I was determined to try and redeem myself.

I loved Freya with all my heart.

It was hard to even explain how this had all happened, how the girl that I bought at the auction house because I thought I recognized her scent, had turned out to be the most important girl in my life.

It wasn’t something that I would have ever imagined, but I wouldn’t want it any other way.

I turned around in bed and the blinking red numbers on the clock by the bedside showed 1:45am. I didn’t know why I had woken up that early, but I knew that my sleep had been troubled and that there was no way that I would be able to go back to sleep again.

Sighing heavily, I swung my feet over the other side of the bed, slipping them into the bedroom slippers by the edge of the bed before moving out of the room.

I made a stop at Jessy’s room first and the moment I flipped the lights on it was to find the little girl wide awake. I moved towards her immediately and she scrambled out of her bed and into my arms.

The fear and sadness in her eyes worried me and for a moment I was scared to ask what the problem could be.

“Hey babe, what’s wrong? Why are you not sleeping?” I asked softly, still wrapping my arms securely around her in a hug, while placing gentle kisses on her head. Jessy was the strongest four years old that I knew and to see her like this was very unusual.

“Had bad dweams daddy.” She finally whispered back.

“It’s okay baby, I’m here now. You’re fine.” I reassured my daughter and we stayed in that position for the longest time.

Her arms and legs wrapped around my frame in a hug while I sat on the floor and kept her secure in my arms. I could tell that she had fallen back asleep but I didn’t want to move for fear of waking her up again.

Eventually, I moved and placed her gently on the bed, pulling the sheets up her frame and placing a kiss on her forehead before exiting the room once more.

Jessy was so precious to me and seeing her scared or unhappy provoked very strong emotions for both myself and my wolf.

I had a half mind to go to the garden for some air but I had too much work to do and if I wasn’t going to be sleeping then the best time to sort out my work would be now. I just couldn’t find the strength in me to begin working at this time.

Between running not only my pack but also other packs and being here for my family, there was only so much time that I could get for myself. But I loved every bit of it and I never wanted it to change, but maybe sometimes I needed breaks.

I moved in the direction of the kitchen first to get a glass of water and the moment I entered the space, I felt a presence within.

The kitchen was still dark but it didn’t take me two seconds to adjust to the darkness and I knew exactly who was within the space.

“Zoe?” I asked, flipping on the light switch immediately.

I didn’t flinch when the light switch flooded the room but Zoe hissed and even covered their eyes the moment the lights came on. Proof that she had been in the darkness for a while now.

“Master.”

“Zoe, what are you doing in the kitchen so late and in the darkness too.” I asked, raising my brows in suspicion.

The incident that had happened while Freya was away, had never been mentioned again and I was more than grateful for that. The last thing I wanted to deal with was an omega with her feelings all around the place or a vengeful one, or even the talkative one.

I didn’t do anything with her and I never intended to, but it didn’t mean that I wanted Freya to hear about it. I wasn’t ready to deal with the tension that would cause in my home and the fact that I would eventually have to send Zoe away.

The maid might be all over the place, especially when it came to handling her feelings and emotions but she was a good servant. One of the best I ever had and she had been serving me for a while now.

“I-I couldn’t sleep Master. Thought I might come down for some water.” She responded and I hummed in understanding.

“Alright, off to bed then.” I said and moved towards the refrigerator to grab a bottle of water.

The moment I turned back around it was to find Zoe’s frame close to mine. So close that if I had not immediately halted in my tracks then I would have bumped into her.

“Zoe, what the hell is your problem? Why are you standing so close to me?” I berated the girl and she swallowed before taking a step back.

I raised my brows at her and when she caught the action she took two more steps back and it wasn’t until she did that I felt like I could breathe better.

“Umm sorry, I didn’t realize. Master I wanted to talk to you about something.” She began and I squinted my eyes at her.

“As long as it’s not about that stupid thing you did then go ahead.”

The moment I mentioned it, her cheeks flushed and she immediately turned her head away from me. I didn’t care how uncomfortable it made her, she needed to learn and respect boundaries.

“No it’s not about that, although I really apologize about that incident. I don’t know what came over me and I’m tr-”

“Zoe, drop it. Back to what you wanted to discuss.” I dismissed immediately. The maid nodded her head in understanding.

“It’s about Freya Master.” The maid began and I frowned.

“What about her?”

“Sh-she’s not r-really who she s-says she is.” The girl stuttered and my frown deepened.

“Cut the bullshit Zoe. If you’re not going to make full and coherent sentences then get the hell out of my sight.” I said, on the edge of frustration already.

“I understand that you’re blinded by your love for her and the fact that she had one of your child and is carrying another one but she’s dangerous.”

The house was pretty quiet at the moment so it wasn’t very difficult to hear the sounds of footsteps coming down the stairs, but I urged Zoe to go on.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Go on, I’m listening.” I urged. Regardless of the sounds moving towards us.

It wasn’t difficult to see that this was the vengeance in her and I didn’t know what Zoe intended to achieve with this but for her sake, I hoped she had a really good back up plan.

Freya appeared by the doorway and when her eyes fell upon both of us standing in the kitchen she raised a brow in question.

Her eyes went to Zoe and although I couldn’t see the maid’s face since she was facing away from me and looking in Freya’s direction, but it wasn’t hard to guess what her features would be like from the way Freya’s frown deepen.

“Is there a problem here?” Freya asked, looking in my direction.

“Zoe seems to think so. I was hoping she would be able to tell us what it is.” I said, opening the bottle of water before taking a sip out of it.

Before the maid could respond though, my phone began ringing and that was when I noticed, for the first time that it was within Freya’s hands.

“It’s Smith. He has been calling for a while now and he keeps disturbing my sleep. I think it’s an emergency though seeing the time.” Freya said, moving from her position to give the phone to me.

“Hello?”

“Greyson, where the hell have you been? I’ve been trying to reach you. We’re under an attack! I’m trying to safely get the women and children to your home where I know they will be safe. Instruct the guards to open the gate and you might need to reach…”

I could still hear Smith talking but it was getting harder and harder to process his words. I had gotten the main message though and so I sprung into action. I dropped the call and then grabbed an extra bottle of water and pulled out some snacks from the bag that usually held them before turning to a Freya

“Come with me.” I said to Freya.

“Where’s Zoe?” I asked, gently pulling her in the direction of the stairs.

“She left, the moment you answered the call. What’s the problem?”

“The pack is under an attack. You have to stay in Jessy’s room. The house in general is very safe and I think Jessy will still be sleeping and I don’t want to disturb her so it’s best you both stay in her room. I’ll put a guard in front of the door too.”

The moment we got to the four years old room, I gently pushed Freya into it, but she held onto me tightly. The fear in her eyes wasn’t very difficult to see.

“Please Greyson. Don’t go out there, I beg you please.” Freya pleaded with tears streaming down her eyes.

“I have to honey. I promise I’ll be back. I’ll sort everything out and I’ll be right back. That’s a promise honey.” I said softly to her.

Wrapping my arms around her in a hug and dropping a kiss on her forehead and her lips.

“Lock the door once I go out. I’ll be back soon Freya, I promise.” I said.

It wasn’t until I heard the click of the lock back in place that I left the spot. My heart was going wild in its cage and the sound of Freya’s crying from within the room made me want to turn around and stay in the room with her, but I had a responsibility.

To protect my pack and most importantly to protect my family. I could only pray to the Goddess that things didn’t get out of hand.
