The Stained Omega by Elle T Jefferson

Alone.
«Anna)
It’s been three weeks since that day I passed out in the clearing, it took me three full days to actually be able to walk under my own steam again. Eliza stayed with me for as long as she could once she and Patrick got me to my new little home but soon the new Luna called her home and I was alone. I keep going through these moments of pure depression, sometimes it’s so powerful I can’t catch my breath and it feels like someone is squeezing my heart. I haven’t heard from Fraction other than some picture updates of Thomas, apparently he passed out like me so he’s probably still pulling himself together too. At least I get to mourn my loss in privacy, his pain will be on display and with a new Luna watching every moment of it.
Last night I decided I needed to do something to occupy my days. considering I can’t exactly work on the Pack land I figured I’d try the two little cafes just off the highway. With no actual educational background I’m limited in what I can do and I have already decided not touch the money Fraction will send. The house, car and phone make sense to me, the money doesn’t, it’s too much and I don’t want it. I figure it will just stay in the account and one day I will pass it to Thomas who can use it for college or a car or something he wants in life. Plus I can’t just sit on my as s waiting for the insanity finally hit me, I need something to fill my days or I will find my way back to the Pack and that will be bad for everyone involved.

So that’s where I am, sitting in a fast food cafe across the table from me is a greasy spot covered teenager who hasn’t taken his eyes off my breasts since I entered the door.
“Can you work nights?” He asks me with his eyes laser focused on my

chest.

“I can,” I tell him while shifting in my seat, I can feel my feet sticking to the black and white chequered floor.
“Perfect, can you start tomorrow? Say 6pm till 3am? It’s a shi tty shift. but we can work out your actual hours tomorrow.” I nod at him as he says this, “perfect. Well we will see you then, Anna.” he says my name after looking at the paperwork, it seems my breasts make him forgetful considering I’ve been speaking to him for forty five minutes now. Smiling, I stand from the booth and leave the café, it’s not the best and I might be surrounded by teenagers but it will be an income I can earn myself. I’ve always relied on those around me and when Fraction came into my life he made me think there was nothing wrong with that. Now I’m thinking I need to start looking after myself, each and every time I have relied on someone else it always seems to go wrong somehow. I always end up having lost the most.
Getting into my car I point it towards my new home and start driving. Taylor Swift starts singing on the radio, something about Lovers and leaving Christmas lights up until January. By the time I pull up in front of my home the tears have made their way back, turning off the ignition and removing the key I put my head against the steering wheel and s ob. I’m not sure how long I sit there digging my head into the steering wheel, my tears are falling quickly and I can’t seem to be able to stop them. A quick knock on the car passenger side window has me looking up and there standing outside of my car is Alpha Darryl, he’s got a sad smile on his face and is waving at me. Swiping at my eyes and nose I step out of the car, he walks around it so he’s standing in front of me.
“Hi.” He says simply.
“Hi Alpha,” I say bowing my head a little, I’m not a Luna anymore so calling him anything other than Alpha is just disrespectful. Even if I’m

not a Pack wolf anymore.
“Don’t bow Anna and it’s Darryl to you.” my eyes shoot up to him and I see the sadness floating around in them. “I’m just on my way home and I wondered if I could ask you some questions about Jefferson”?”
“You still haven’t found him?” I ask in shock as I nod towards the house and pull out my keys.
“Not yet, no one has seen him since that day in the Swiftmane Packhouse.” I’m relieved he called it the Swfitmane Packhouse and not ‘your’ Packhouse Opening the door I walk into the house and hear him following behind me into the lounge.
“You think I did something to him?” Lask while sitting on the sofa.
“No not at all, I was more wondering if he said anything about going anywhere? Maybe he made a small comment about visiting someone or another Pack?” Darryl says while lutching his jeans up at the knee and sitting on the chair across from me
“I’m sorry Darryl, he just did the paperwork and explained his number was in my phone if I needed him. I think he spoke to.” I take a deep breath struggling to get Fractions name past my lips I shake my head. “I think he spoke to the Alpha before he left but otherwise I think he left quite quickly after our meeting.”
“That will get easier, you know,” he says to me while nodding at what I’m saying.
“Huh?” I ask him confused at the change in topic.
“The pain you feel when you think about him. It won’t vanish but it will get easier, so will the sadness. I’m not Omega but even I can feel the depression hanging around you like a deep mist.” I look down at my hands in shame, I thought I was managing well other than the

random crying. “Fraction will figure this out.” He tells me and he sounds so sure.
“How can he, he rejected me as a mate and Luna. I didn’t realise he was going to do that. I thought I was just losing my Luna role, not my mate.” I tell him truthfully.
