Atlas won’t believe me.
At the end of the day, I’m just a Darling. An omega nobody wants for anything but sex.
I never named names when Noelle locked me in the closet because I knew I’d hurt worse if I tried to rat. Even after she kicked me until my ribs cracked, then left me alone for days with no food or water, just pain.
I didn’t expect the trainers to start a crusade, to go after blood and justice, but I thought they’d at least care that I couldn’t walk. I didn’t need an assembly about bullying, or even for Noelle to be punished. I just wanted someone, any one person, to give a shit that I’d been hurt.
Trainer Renee said I was stirring trouble.
Are you sure you didn’t lock yourself in?
Did you even try to open the door?
Are you that jealous, Lilah? Do you need to put on such a desperate act to get attention from the alphas?
Motherfucker, I beat my head against that door.
Feels like I’m always beating my head against something, but no matter how I rage, they never believe me.
I told Jett that Craig was a problem.
Does he care? No.
I’m never anything but a troublemaker.
And Craig knows the truth just as well as I do. His thin-lipped smile makes me vibrate, wanting to cut the smug out of him.
If Craig tells the guys I’m perfuming, I won’t be able to hide, and even if they don’t toss me out on my ass, I’ll be back at the OCC so fast. Hikaru will either auction me off to some nightmare pack or put me in permanent rotation.
I refuse.
Then, now, always.
That’s not going to be my future.
“Let’s make a deal.” I kick my dirty clothes into the nest, then shut the door, not wanting Craig panting over my scent.
“You have nothing to negotiate with.”
“We want the same thing. You want me gone. I want to be gone. So help me get out.”
“You want to leave Wyvern Pack?” he asks skeptically.
“I need a way to disappear.”
“I’m not paying you.”
“I have my own money.” I roll my eyes. “Just get me off the property to a hotel the Wyverns can’t trace.”
“Are you deluded? They’re not going to chase you.”
I grit my teeth. Like I don’t know? “I need to get away from Hikaru.”
“Maybe. But what’re you gonna do for me?”
“I’ll be gone.”
“That’s not enough.”
