Chapter 26: A cover-up story

Damon thought about how to explain Talia's presence to Caden and Maya.

"I'm responsible for her.", Damon said which got him raised eyebrows from Maya and Caden who obviously wanted more information.

"Marcy was in my room and this girl… interrupted. Because of that, she ended up in her current state."

Maya connected the dots. "Is she the Omega you mentioned, that got a beating from Marcy?"

Damon nodded.

"Why are you making it sound like you are responsible?", Caden asked. "If Marcy has a temper, it was only a matter of time before she snaps, regardless if you were involved."

Damon raised his hand, indicating to Caden to be patient. "That was the first time. Then, I went to Alpha Edward and told him that some Omegas are being punished physically and that he should talk to Marcy about it, and after that, this girl got another beating."

Maya and Caden exchanged looks, feeling that something is missing from the story.
