The Omega Mated To The Four

Chapter 46 The Omega: Mated To The Four Chapter Forty Six The morning sunlight streamed through the cabin's windows, casting a warm glow on the wooden floors, I stretched, my body still aching from the emotional toll of the past few week. As I sat up in bed, my eyes drifted to the pile of clothes I had taken from Mariah's closet the night before.

Carefully, I reached out and picked up one of Mariah's scarves, the soft fabric still faintly carrying her scent. I pressed it to my face, letting it ground me. I wasn't sure what the journey ahead would bring, but I knew I couldn't delay any longer.

Rising from the bed, I grabbed a small bag and stuffed it with a few of Mariah's belongings: the scarf, a locket Mariah had kept by her bedside, and a journal I had found while searching her room. These items, small as they were, felt like pieces of Mariah's strength and guidance.

Dressing quickly, I slung the bag over my shoulder and walked out of the bedroom.

In the main living area of the cabin, my mates sat around the table, deep in conversation. Elijah's brows were furrowed, his hands gesturing animatedly as he spoke. Alex leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, while Austin and Isaiah both nodded thoughtfully.

When I stepped into the room, bag in hand, the conversation stopped abruptly. Four pairs of eyes turned to me, their expressions a mix of curiosity and concern.

"Good morning," Austin said cautiously, breaking the silence.

I didn't respond immediately. Instead, I walked to the center of the room, letting my bag drop onto the table with a soft thud. I crossed my arms, looking at each of them in turn, "Well?" I asked, my tone light but challenging. "Are you all going to sit here discussing whatever it is you're discussing, or are we going to find this keystone?" The four of them blinked in surprise.

Alex was the first to recover, a smirk curling his lips. "I like the sound of that," he said, his voice filled with admiration.

I rolled my eyes but couldn't suppress the smile tugging at the corners of my mouth.

"You're serious?" Elijah asked, his tone cautious but hopeful.

"Dead serious," I replied, my voice steady. "Eira said it's up to us, right? The keystone isn't going to find itself." Isaiah leaned forward, his silver eyes studyingintently. "Are you sure?" he asked softly.

I met his gaze without hesitation. "Yes," I said. "I don't know we will be able to find it but What I do know is that waiting around here won't change anything. Mariah believed in me. That's enough." The room was silent for a moment as my words sank in. Then, one by one, the four of them nodded.

"All right," Elijah said, standing. "Let's get moving." I took a deep breath, the cool air brushing against my skin as I stepped outside the cabin. My bag was slung over my shoulder, the weight of my decision settling in but feeling oddly liberating. My mates followed close behind, their usual playful banter subdued, replaced by a quiet determination.

Elijah's black Jeep waited at the edge of the clearing, its paint gleaming faintly in the sunlight. As we approached, I glanced back at the cabin one last time, my thoughts drifting to Mariah. I felt a pang of grief but also a flicker of newfound purpose. This wasn't just for her-it was for everyone who had sacrificed so much.

1/3 Chapter Forty Six As I reached for the pas docx, Fish called but see him standing with the rest, all of them looking onedly seriou "What is it?" I asked, frowning slightly.

Elijah stepped forward, his piercing eyes locking with mine. "Before we go, there's something we need to say I tilted my head, my curiosity piqued. "Okay..." Elijah knelt on one knee, and her breath caught in her throat. "What are you- Before I could finish, Alex followed suit, his usual smirk replaced with an earnest expression. Austin and Isaiah mirmed them. dropping to one knee in unison. Are they going to propose? This is so not the time.

I blinked, my heart thudding as I stared at the four of them kneeling before me.

"We swear to the Moon Goddess to protect you," Elijah began, his voice steady and resolute. "And we swear to you as your mates. your partners in this journey."

Alex grinned up at me, the playful gleam in his eye tempered by m sincerity. "You're not just our mate-you're our savior. And we're here for you, no matter what." Austin, added softly, "You've been carrying so much alone. You don't have to anymore. We're with you, Stormi. Always."

Isaiah looked up at her, his eyes filled with quiet devotion. "We're bound to you, not just by fate but by choice. Whatever comes, whatever we face, we'll stand by your side." My chest tightened, and a mix of emotions swirling inside me-shock, gratitude, and something I hadn't allowed myself to fully feel before acceptance.

"You're all ridiculous," I muttered, trying to keep my voice steady. But my lips quirked into a smile, and my eyes glistened with unshed tears.

Isaiah chuckled. "Maybe. But we mean it." I shook my head, swallowing hard as I looked at each of them. "I don't need a grand gesture. I just need you to be here." Elijah rose first, taking my hand and pressing a kiss to my knuckles. We will be. Always." Alex stood next, wrapping an arm around my shoulders. "You're stuck with us now, whether you like it or not." Austin gavea shy smile as he got to his feet. "No backing out, Stormi." Isaiah rose last, his hand brushing against hers as he met her gaze. Together," he said simply.

"Alright," I said, my voice firm but laced with affection. "Let's go find this keystone."
