The Omega For Sale

I flipped open my eyes and turned around on the bed and in that moment and I was glad that I were still laying on the bed because the wave of vertigo that hit me as I turned would have been enough to knock me off my feet.

Shutting my eyes tight again, I tried to wish the banging in my head away but it remained no matter how much I tried. The bed beside me felt cold, which was proof that Greyson had left me for a while and that I had been sleeping for a good couple of hours now.

The only good thing that came from sleeping this long was the fact that I now felt in total control of myself and my wolf.

Being consumed by so much anger and losing control as much as I did earlier had been very challenging, for both my body and mind and it wasn’t something I wanted to go through again.

I needed to check up on Jessy and then maybe sleep in bed with her. It would help me relax better if I knew that I was closer to my daughter.

I moved carefully out of the bed, mindful of my head and the dizziness that was threatening to overtake my frame. My entire body felt weak and all I wanted was to crawl into the bed and fall asleep again, but I fought through the urge and moved slowly out of the door.

The entire house was eerily quiet and it confirmed that it was still very early in the morning.

As I pushed open the door, the sight of Jessy laying on the large king sized bed, calmed my fraying nerves. For a moment I truly believed that I would come in to meet an empty room.

I feared that Jessy would be no where to be found and that Emilia and whoever else was involved with her, would come back to finish what they had started.

I moved closer to Jessy’s frame on the bed and the sight of her looking so fragile and helpless in the center of the large bed caused fresh tears to form in my eyes.

I wasn’t used to seeing my child like this and I didn’t think I would ever get used it. I stroked her cheeks softly and a shivered went through her frame at her cold skin.

Panic rushed through my veins and I felt her forehead with my palms. Her entire body felt cold to the touch and went I reached for her pulse and didn’t feel a thing, I didn’t wait to confirm if it were what I was thinking, I opened my mouth and let out the loudest scream I had ever produced in my entire life.

It felt like my word was coming to an end and I couldn’t control a thing around me, I let out scream after scream. Not bothering if I woke up the entire house. I didn’t care in the least what happened.

My baby couldn’t die. No, never.

I vaguely heard Greyson rushing into the room alongside Smith and they both of them talking amongst themselves but my eyes were fixed on Jessy’s frame.

Someone wrapped their arms around me and a chest was soon blocking my vision of Jessy. I fought to get out of the hold but I was too weak to do anything except cry bitterly.

“Hey Freya, hey baby, hey look at me, listen to me. Come on. Jessy is fine again, she was just due for another dose of Clara’s medicine. She’s breathing better now, come take a look.” Greyson coaxed, speaking gently to me as well as stroking my hair to help me relax faster.

It did work, because as soon as I moved towards the bed and found Jessy’s chest rising and falling normally again as well as a little color return to her cheeks, it felt like I could breathe better.

“I already called Clara and she’ll be here soon. She says she has some news for us.” Greyson delivered and I nodded my head in response.

“Thank you so much.” I said and Greyson nodded in response.

Greyson moved behind me and soon his arms were coming around me, I instantly relaxed into his hold and we just stood in silence for a while, watching Jessy’s frame on the bed.

“I thought I saw Smith come in with you.” I said after a couple of minutes.

“Yes, he was holding you while I administered Jessy’s medicine. He left immediately after that but he promised he’ll be back soon.”

I didn’t even realize that Smith had been the one to hold me. His arms had felt just as safe and secure as Greyson’s arms usually felt around me.

“You should a little before Clara gets here. It’s being one rollercoaster night for you and it’s barely over yet. You haven’t rested enough.” Greyson said but I was already shaking my head no before he could even complete his sentence.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep at all anymore. It’s you who should rest a little, you don’t look like you have at all.” I said.

“I don’t think I can sleep too. Let’s just cuddle on the bed” Greyson urged and I nodded in agreement.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

We moved to the unoccupied part of the bed and Greyson climbed in first, keeping open his legs open and leaving me enough space to climb in between, he locked me into his arms and placed gentle kisses on my head.

And that was the way Clara found us when she walked into the room, a couple of minutes later.

It was only 5am and so I felt a little terrible that we were disturbing the older woman’s rest. She looked as bad as Greyson and I looked so it was obvious that she had barely gotten any rest and had spent the entire night trying to work on something for Jessy. I appreciated her more than I could express.

Greyson and I moved out of the bed and after we exchange hellos with her. Greyson cut to the chase.

“What did you find out Clara? Would you be able to cure Jessy? What do we have to do.” Greyson asked in one go and I nodded my head to his questions to show my support.

“Let me just finish my routine check on her and then we can go to your office and talk, I have some really interesting news to share.” She said.

And patiently, Greyson and I waited as she finished her check. Helping her at points where she needed our help. Twenty minutes later and she had given Jessy something that was helping to return more colors to her cheeks and she cleaned and changed Jessy’s clothes.

Jessy now looked like she were sleeping instead of the pale, almost dead looking like she had been looking all night.

I performed most of the jobs that Clara gave me almost robotically, I could stop my mind from wondering to what the interesting news might be. It could be good or bad And the fact that I couldn’t guess off the bat was making me more anxious.

Greyson’s face was a blank mask but from his stance, I could see how tense he was.

One thing I was grateful for, was Clara’s attention to detail when it came to Jessy. The woman was very meticulous in her work and it brought me a little ease.

Once she was done, she finally turned to address us. The smile on her lips that was probably there to help me feel at ease, unsettled me even more. The smile could be an interlude to the bad news.

“Shall we?” She said and turned around to exit the room, and myself and Greyson walked after her silently.

I couldn’t shake off the negativity no matter how much I tried.

“So what did you find out?” Greyson asked the moment we were settled on the coach in Greyson’s office, with both of us sharing a love seater and facing the healer that was sat opposite us.

“Freya, is it okay if I ask you some things regarding Jessy and her father?” Clara began and I furrowed my brows in confusion.

“I don’t know a lot about her father. It’s been us all through, but I’m willing to help as much as I can and with as much information as I can provide.” I said.

“I met him at a feast where I was a serving girl. The details of that night is not one I particularly enjoy divulging so I’ll like to skip it, but that was it. I never saw him after that night, I didn’t even get a good look at his face or anything else. He was an Alpha for sure, that’s all I could tell.” I explained and Clara nodded her head at my words.

“Alright that’s good, I spent all night working and I was thankfully about to gather a few things that might be able to help. So from my findings last night, I was able to gather that Jessy would need the blood of an Alpha since we are all aware that the blood of an Alpha contains healing properties.”

“That shouldn’t be a problem, I could give her my blood.” Greyson offered immediately.

“That’s where it gets kind of tricky. Deadly Nightshade is ver powerful and it would only take the blood of a relative to help completely flush out the toxins since it would come with a stronger bond and a more powerful force that should be sure to force the poison completely out of her.” Clara said.

“There’s no way I’ll be able to find Jessy’s father. I can’t identify him Clara I swear, that night is a blur in my mind. You have to find another way or Jessy will die, please I beg you.” I said, tears stinging at my eyes already.

“Calm down Freya, I did say I had interesting news for you both. So I took Jessy’s blood last night and ran a blood test on it. I was more than surprised to find a couple of things; First, Jessy is an Alpha, then next, she shares the same blood with Greyson. Which could only mean one thing.”

My heart stuttered to a stop in my chest and when I turned to look at Greyson, he looked as pale as Jessy’s frame had looked when I had gone to the room to check up on her earlier in the morning.

Greyson was Jessy’s father.

The man that I was completely in love with at this moment, was the same man that I had spent years hating. This was the same man that had brought me pain and suffering.

It was too much for me to bear.
