Werewolf

Betrayed Omega: The Alpha

by Lance Summer

There is a legend among the wolves that any vow made before the Moon Goddess will never come true if it isn't fulfilled within three years.Cedric Vaughn has broken his promise for three years, and I've become a traitor in the eyes of the entire pack for supposedly betraying my vow to the Moon Goddess.In the first year, when I confront him about breaking his promise, he's busy helping my best friend, Rowena Gilmore, prepare her inauguration speech for Blood Oath Day.He says, "There's no rush, Thea. We still have two years, don't we? Becoming my Beta has always been Rowena's dream."He touches my face gently, his voice soft and remorseful. "I promise I'll fulfill our vow once this is over and complete the mating ceremony with you."I believe him and continue to wait.But over the next two years, Cedric and Rowena are inseparable. She becomes his constant companion and appears by his side at all kinds of events.Meanwhile, after countless instances of endless waiting and disappointment, I become a laughingstock to every wolf in the pack. It is clear I am nothing more than Cedric's pathetic backup choice.My mom is furious with me for being so weak. "Cedric is the Alpha of the pack, and Rowena is his Beta. You're an Omega nobody respects. They're making a fool out of you."Cedric messages me, saying, "I can't let Rowena attend the celebratory party alone. I promise this will be the last time. Rowena is your best friend. She'll be the one planning our mating ceremony. I'm sure you'll love it."I don't wait for him like I used to. Instead, I buy a plane ticket to leave six days from now.A vow that will never come true isn't worth keeping.
