Reborn Omega Avenge Herself Like an Alpha
Chapter 164 The Poisoned Gambit
Third Person POV
Ulrich fed Mariana a vial of specially prepared restorative serum, forcing her body to heal faster.
The moment she woke, he began pressing her for details about Alpha Henry’s condition.

Mariana hesitated before answering, “When he came back from the Stella Pack, he was indeed injured… and badly at that.” This content belongs to.net
Ulrich’s eyes lit with interest. “What symptoms? Did he have a fever?”
“Alpha…” Mariana feigned a thoughtful pause, her mind racing. She didn’t know who this unfamiliar Alpha was, but his malice toward Henry was unmistakable.
He seemed desperate to confirm something. Could it be that Henry really was unwell?
In the space of a heartbeat, countless thoughts flashed through her mind. She remembered his striking presence, his past tenderness toward her… and the cold, merciless way he had treated her tonight.
He had stripped her of her rank, kicked her into a pool laced with wolfsbane, and left her to die.
And yet-
“His wound was a little inflamed, but there was no fever, and certainly no coughing up blood,” she said at last, her voice soft.
Even after everything, her heart still trembled at the sound of his name.
She loved his strength. She loved his cruelty. She even loved the pain he gave her. That twisted love had long since burrowed deep into her bones.
She would have him – Alpha Henry would be hers.
Her tone grew steadier as she went on. “Either way, for a top–ranked Alpha to develop a fever and start coughing blood from a single arrow wound just doesn’t make sense.” Years of lying had made her a master of her own expressions, every muscle in her face under control, not a trace of her scent giving her away.
Ulrich studied her for a long moment but found no crack in her composure. Besides, he couldn’t imagine anyone foolish enough to protect someone who had harmed them.
He exhaled slowly. “So he really hasn’t been infected. Lucky bastard…”
–
Suddenly, his hand shot out, gripping her chin. “Work for me. Get close to Alpha Henry and kill him — or I’ll snap your neck right here.”
Mariana flinched. “But… he hates me now. He won’t let me near him. And I’m just an omega.”
“I’ll give you the resources you need,” Ulrich replied coldly. “How you get close is your problem.”
“…Fine. I understand.” She lowered her head, lashes trembling faintly.
Satisfied, Ulrich pulled a sealed vial from his coat and pressed it into her hands. “When you do get close, slip this into his food.”

“What is it?” she asked.

“You don’t need to know.” His lips curled into a cold smile. “Just make sure I see results within a month.”
With that, Ulrich turned and left. Since Henry wasn’t infected, there was no point in staying. He couldn’t defeat him outright – not yet – and it was better to return and push forward with the development of the Lupine virus. Once perfected, he would not only make Alpha Henry his slave, but take the entire northern werewolf continent for himself.
But shortly after his departure, Beta Cam followed Henry’s orders, striking Mariana from behind and taking the sealed vial.
When the warriors delivered it to Henry and Aubrey, she tested the contents and discovered it was an unfinished strain of the Lupine virus.
“With this sample, we can accelerate our research to crack the virus.”
Without another word, Aubrey dove into the research lab. Once the seal was broken, the live virus would only survive for about three days – every second now mattered.
Meanwhile, Ulrich was already approaching the border of the Shadowmoon Pack.
One of his guards, frustrated, asked, “Alpha, we’re just leaving? Without doing anything?”
“That foolish omega will succeed,” Ulrich said with confidence. The fear of death would drive her to find a way to get close to Henry. And the virus he had perfected – once it touched someone, there would be no
cure.
