The Alpha’s Last Chance: The Omega on the Run Novel – For six years of their hidden marriage, tonight was the first time Xavier lifted his daughter into the air.
Five-year-old Bella burst into laughter, waving excitedly at Hannah. “Mommy, Alpha Xavier made me fly!” Hannah forced a smile, though her heart ached at the sight of them. She had once felt the same joy when Xavier first walked toward her in the pack.
But she knew happiness like this was fleeting—beautiful yet fragile, like a bubble waiting to burst. Six years ago… “Are you Hannah Greene?” A newly adult, tall, and powerfully built Xavier stood before her.
Hannah tightened her grip on the broom in her hands, momentarily stunned. “Yes, Alpha,” she replied. “You’re an omega?” Hannah said nothing, only staring blankly before giving a small nod. “I, Xavier Clarke, the Alpha of the Crimson Pack, reject you, Omega Hannah Greene, as my mate and Luna.” “I accept your rejection,” she responded. Just like that, Hannah was rejected by her fated mate. She was only an omega.
Even in her wildest dreams, she had never imagined having an Alpha mate—let alone being rejected by him the moment she found out. But it was understandable. Everyone in the pack knew that Alpha Xavier had a childhood sweetheart, Naomi—the daughter of a neighboring pack’s Alpha. And she? She was merely a pack servant.
As Hannah watched Xavier lift their daughter high into the air with a drunken smile, a terrible premonition settled in her heart. He was drunk tonight—too drunk to realize what he was doing. He didn’t love Bella. He didn’t love Hannah. The only reason he was happy right now was because Naomi had returned.
Six years ago, Xavier and Naomi had been passionately in love. But when she learned that she wasn’t his fated mate—even after he rejected Hannah—Naomi still chose to leave.
