Reborn Omega: Avenge Herself Like an Alpha
Chapter 54 A Dangerous Calm
Aubrey’s POV
After Alpha Henry left, I lay in bed but couldn’t fall asleep. Something about him had been strange lately.
“He loves you! He wants you!” Ella was spinning gleefully in my consciousness, practically purring with excitement.
I opened my mouth to argue–but nothing came out. Because no Alpha looks at an Omega they hate the way Henry looked at me tonight… like he was holding something precious.
And that kiss… Moon Goddess. He kissed my eyes.
Kissing someone’s lips might be about lust–but no one kisses a woman’s eyes out of lust. That… that was tenderness.
Was he… pitying me?
No. That’s impossible. In my last life, I gave everything, and he never spared me so much as a glance.
I must be imagining it. There’s no way Alpha Henry could ever love me. And even if he did… what then? Was
I supposed to go back to being the pathetic fool chasing after him for love?
No. Never again.
At some point, I finally drifted to sleep.
When I woke the next morning, the first thing I did was check on the Omega girl from last night. She seemed much better today.
“What’s your name? Do you have a home?” I asked gently.
“I’m Lisa,” she whispered, eyes wet with tears. She told me she was an orphan–had never known her parents. She was raised by a group of scavenger Omegas who lived off the waste in the pack’s outer zones.
Most Omegas who end up as orphans in Shadowmoon Pack… were abandoned. Secretly, quietly, left to fend for themselves like trash.
Lisa’s halting voice felt like a dull blade peeling back the rotting flesh of this pack’s darkest places. The abandoned babies. The children growing like weeds in the slums. Alpha Henry’s strength may reach far- but it had never reached into those shadows.
If I sent her back, she’d just return to a place with no safety. And next time, someone like that beta might succeed.
I gathered my thoughts. “Why did you lie for me?” I asked. “You knew hiding the truth from an Alpha is a capital offense.”
“You saved me,” she whispered. “I couldn’t betray you.”
Her voice was soft–but full of steel.
“Oh, this girl has a noble soul,” Ella murmured in my mind.
She may be a powerless Omega, but she had loyalty. And heart. I looked at her for a long moment, then

made a decision.
“ If I asked you to work for me… would you?”
“I would!” Lisa stood up straight, pressing a fist to her chest. “You saved my life. It’s yours. I’ll give everything to serve you.”
“Keep your life,” I said, tucking a thick envelope of cash into her hands. “Go to the Rosan Peaks. Follow my instructions. All I need… is your loyalty.”
It was risky. Maybe even reckless. But some seeds deserve a chance to break through the soil.
After she left in a taxi, my phone rang.
It was my father.
My feelings toward him were complicated. Yes, he was biased. But he was still my father.
“Aubrey, I know you’ve been emotionally unstable lately,” he began in that fake–gentle tone, “but we can’t ignore the problem. Just come home. Your mother’s invited Dr. Jimmy to do your therapy this afternoon at three.”
“She’s not my mother,” I said coldly.
“Aubrey! You-”
“I’ll come home,” I cut him off before he could scold me. “I’m at the Alpha’s house right now. I’ll be back later.”
I hung up. I knew that once he heard I was with Alpha Henry, he’d back off. And I was right–he didn’t call again.
After lunch, the Alpha’s butler sent a car to take me home. Henry didn’t show his face. Fine by me. In our current state, seeing each other too often wouldn’t end well.
Jimmy’s POV
At exactly three o’clock, I arrived at Gamma Jax’s estate.
In the pocket of my tailored suit was the vial Aurelia had given me–an inducement agent, specially formulated with pheromones.
Twas very much looking forward to today’s session.
Aubrey was breathtaking. Her beauty wasn’t just physical–it was dangerous. Sharp a in an Omega’s body. I’d never met anyone so perfectly made to be ruined.
old. A siren trappe
To help me work undisturbed, Aurelia had made sure the house was empty. The servants were gone, and she and her daughter had stepped out for the afternoon.
So when I entered, the vast living room was quiet. Only Aubrey sat on the couch, elegantly pouring herself
wine.
Red liquid shimmered in her crystal glass, glinting between her fingertips. She looked like some distant goddess of beauty and war, untouchable and divine.

I could barely wait to strip her bare. To touch her breasts. To watch her tremble beneath me.
“Ms. Aubrey,” I said, walking toward her with a smile, “it’s a pleasure to see you. Why don’t we go to your room and begin your session?”
Poor, arrogant Omega.
She didn’t yet know… Some forms of therapy go far deeper than she could ever imagine.
