The Omega Mated To The Four

The Alpha Bond 127

The next morning, I stood in the training grounds, my heart heavy I faced Eira. The morning sun barely warmed the cold expression on her face, and her piercing gaze held no mercy.

She was angry. And I didn't blame her.

"What happened last night was reckless," she said, her voice sharp like a blade. "You let your emotions rule you. You acted without thinking, and because of that, we lost a valuable source of information."

I clenched my fists. "She was taunting me."

Eira stepped closer, her presence suffocating. "Taunting you? Storm you are stronger than that. You are more than just a warrior. You are a leader-the Silver Wolf. And yet, last night, you acted like an enraged pup."

I flinched.

She exhaled sharply, her frustration evident. "Your power is immense, but without control, you are just as dangerous as the enemies we fight. If you continue down this path, you will not just bring harm to yourself, but to your mates-to all of our kind."

I swallowed hard. "I-"

Eira held up a hand, silencing me. "You need to prove that you can control your strength, your instincts, your rage. Because if you cannot, then you are not ready for what comes next."

A flicker of doubt crept into my mind, but I shoved it down.

I wouldn't let last night define me.

I straightened my spine and met her gaze. "I will prove it."

Eira studied me for a long moment before nodding. "Good. Because today, you face your final test."

She turned on her heel and walked away, leaving me standing there, my heart pounding.

This was it.

One last test.

And then we would begin our quest to find the Moon Keystone.

The moment we stepped into the grand arena, I realized just how serious this test

was.

Witches lined the stands in the massive arena, the sigma of the Umbral society hung from the roof lining the walls, and the witches were buzzing with anticipation. The energy in the air reminded me of the gladiator fights from ancient times.

In the center of the arena, a massive labyrinth stretched before us.

My stomach twisted.

This wasn't going to be just a battle. It was going to be a test of strategy, endurance, and trust.

Eira's voice echoed through the arena. "To succeed, you must work as one. This labyrinth will test not only your strength but your ability to trust your bond. If you fail-" her gaze locked onto mine, then you are not ready."
