The Omega: Mated To The Four

Chapter fifty One

The sound of a knock startled me awake. Disoriented, I sat up, blinking into the darkness. The faint glow of enchanted sconces outside my window barely lit the room, casting long, eerie shadows on the walls.

Another knock echoed, louder this time. "Stormi?" a familiar voice called.

I stumbled out of bed, heart pounding, and padded to the door, running a hand through my tangled hair. "Coming!" I croaked, my voice hoarse from sleep. When I swung the door open, Rowena stood there with all four of my mates-Elijah, Alex, Isaiah, and Austin-waiting with varying degrees of amusement on their faces.

Rowena crossed her arms, smirking. "I've been knocking for five minutes. Stormi, you're a heavy sleeper, and that's not good."

I rubbed the back of my neck sheepishly. "Five minutes? Sorry, I guess I was more tired than I thought."

Alex stepped forward, his brows furrowed in concern. "You okay?"

I nodded quickly, avoiding his gaze. "Yeah, just... tired, that's all.”

Rowena sighed dramatically. "Well, you've kept everyone waiting. The feast is about to begin, and we can't start without the Silver Wolf and her entourage."

Heat crept up my cheeks. "Give me one minute," I mumbled, darting back into the room to pull on my shoes and splash cold water on my face.

When I returned, Rowena was already leading the group down the hallway. The stone corridors were dimly lit with floating orbs of golden light, casting a warm glow that contrasted with the cool air. The sound of our footsteps echoed off the high ceilings, blending with the faint hum of magic that seemed to pulse in the air itself.

Rowena glanced over her shoulder, her expression softening. "Your training starts tomorrow, Stormi. We'll need at least a month to prepare you."

Elijah's brows knitted together in frustration. "We don't have a month to spare. Every day we're here, more packs are at risk."

Rowena raised an eyebrow at him. "Time to spare? I was going to say it's not enough."
