Omega Bound Chapter 157

Ayla

"We better get out of here and do what we came here to do." Raven suggests as we head toward the broken stairwell. Climbing the rubble is much harder than going down it.

We walk down the hall, and I close my eyes going past the heat rooms and head through the main area of the building.

"Wait here." Raven leave through the main doors and returns a few moments later with a gas can. she holds it out for me to take.

I can't explain the feeling I have looking at the handle of this can in my palm. My heart races but my veins course with excitement with the thought of watching this place burn. The tightness in my chest starts to loosen and I can't help the smile that starts to cross my face.

"Pour it wherever you want, BUT you light it outside. You know smoke and pregnancy stuff." Raven tosses a rock up and down in the air as she waits for me to start my revenge tour. I got it now. This feeling that I have found within me. A momentum to keep going. To keep conquering. To keep the fight to take down the ring alive. I feel it all.

I walk down the heat clinic halls with a new purpose. They will never use this place again and if they attempt to rebuild, I will burn the next one and the one after that. This ends with me. No more abductions. No more victims.

I pour the gas through the rooms and down the hall. I dip into the rubble stairwell of the dungeon and make a look before climbing back up. I throw the can in the main area when I return.

"The smell is getting to me. I may lose my cookies." I cough as we head out of the building.

"That's a shame. Monica is making you a cake to celebrate, but if you don't feel well....."

"No, I will be fine, keep the cake." I growl as she starts to laugh.

As we exit Raven strikes a match and hands it to me. "Congratulations, you win." She states and she's right. This feels like a victory. I went from the cage to burning this place down. I smile big as I turn toward the building again.

"I won." and I threw the match down on the ground. The fire flares up fast and hot as it follows the trails through the yard and into the building. I got back toward Raven's car and sat on the hood to watch the show.

"I won." I repeat as Raven sits next to me.

"You win." She turns to me and shakes her hand through my messy white hair. Rubble throughout the entire mass starts to fall out of my hair. Hers is no better. The wild red curls big and wild with their own building treasures throughout.

I watch the flame consume the rest of the building. The smoke is big and black. Dark and hot. Too hot. We turn and look at each other before climbing off the car and getting it. I watch from the side mirror as the entire compound is engulfed in flames.

"Do you think it will burn out. There's enough snow on the ground, right?" I ask nervously.

"Yeah...sure....it's fine." Raven checks her mirror, then pulling onto another road, a lot quicker than when we arrived.

"That was pretty reckless." I say.

"Felt good though, didn't it?" Raven asks and I smile at her.

"Damn good." Raven smiles and speeds up. I quickly find my spew cup and hold it tightly.

"I'm going to help you. With taking down the ring. I'm going to stay and help." Raven tells me, not taking her eyes off the road.

"Are we going to start Raven's Revenge Tour?" I ask motioning my hands in the hair like I can see it as a pack headline.

"Yeah. We will be doing some revenging." She turns and grins hugely at me. Her eyes flare with mischief.

"Can our mates help? We may need muscle." I ask, feeling out her future plans.

"Oh, their involvement will be mandatory I am afraid. One thing at a time." Raven states, leaving me guessing how her mating bond with Cyrus is going to change after our return. For the better, I hope.

I get comfortable in the car and settle against the headrest. I place my hand over my stomach and squeeze my little pup within. My pants are getting tighter, and I can feel a faint bump. I drift off thinking about my future family with a smile on my face.

"You set half the damn forest there on fire Raven...bonding is NOT ARSON! I jolted awake, still sitting inside the car as Thane, Raven and Cyrus stood outside in the dark. It takes me a minute to realize that we are in my driveway.

"Hey, speak for yourself your majesty." Cyrus cuts Thane off. "You should have taken me baby...I love arson. Please tell me you looked sexy as hell striking that match.....damn girl..."

"SHUT UP CYRUS!" Thane and Raven yell in unison, and I bite my lip to stifle the laughter.

Thane is wearing camo pants, boots and a long sleeved, tight black undershirt. They must have just finished a training exercise of sorts because Cyrus is dressed the same.

"She was fine with going. She did great actually. It will help her move on. You didn't see her when she was telling me the nitty gritty of her history. She left nothing out this time and it looked like it took a piece of her just to tell me. So yes, I provided her with an outlet." Raven explains to Thane, and I try to process her words but all I am noticing is the tick of Thane's jaw, the tension causing his muscles to define more. And those forearms...don't get me started.

Thane must feel my arousal through the bond because his head turns quickly in my direction. I know what we did was very irresponsible, but it was also justified. However, none of it matters as I make eye contact with my mate. I climb out of the car and jump into his arms as he turns toward me and my lips crash down to his. I feel like it has been forever since I felt him.

"Thane...." I break the kiss as I moan his name into his lips.

"Damn Thane you better go take care of that situation." Cyrus says from somewhere behind me.

"Yeah, she was making the cutest little moaning noises for you earlier." Raven says and I tense, my eyes wide.

"What?" Cyrus and Thane ask in unison, their heads turning between Raven and I as they start growling, no doubt their wolves riding them about a mating bond threat.

I can feel my face turn beet red. "You heard that?" I ask Raven, embarrassed.

"Heard what?" Thane asks at the same time Cyrus states "Oh, do tell."

"Get the hell out of here now!" Thane growls.

"See, I told you he was only nice to her." Cyrus states.
