The trip out of the bunker was painful, to say the least. John's damn claim did nothing but burn and ache as you got further and further away from him. On top of that, your head pounded from the whines your Omega side was letting out constantly.

   The she-wolf wouldn't shut up for one second. Either complaining about John, whether it be him, his scent, or his knot or how stupid you were being for going against the church. There was nowhere you could run where they couldn't find you. Whether it be Jacob, Joseph, John, or Faith. Faith seemed like the best options at this point.

   You've never personally talked to Faith. As a pup, the other pups that lived in the compound with you played with her and learned how to be an Omega. This was before any of you properly presented. If you were deemed to have the characteristics of an Omega, you were sent to her.

   You would learn how to take care of the bliss flowers, but you never really handled them. The Father forbade pups from being exposed to them, so you all watched with wide, innocent eyes as Faith got on her tiptoes to reach for a dried bouquet of Bliss. Even though you couldn't touch it, you could smell it from afar. It smelled like pure nostalgia as if the scent of old books, pen ink, and plane fuel were pressed into a flower.

   As you grew older, you would attend to the bliss next to Gabriel's house if you needed to talk. The drug never truly took effect on you as it did others. Maybe because you were exposed to it so much as a young pup that all it did was give you a massive headache. You've never once entered the Bliss and you had no desire to. The VIPs, sinners, and Faith can deal with that weird shit.

   If you went to Faith's region there would be no way she would find you. The bliss didn't affect you like the others. This whole fucking mess would be a piece of cake.

    Your wolf seemed annoyed by the decision. Of all the Seeds you could have picked to go to, it had to be Faith. She was an Omega, completely useless to you. The only thing an Omega could offer to another Omega would be friendship and comfort. They would never get along as mates, both of them would end up fighting for submissiveness. An Omega can't be dominant, it isn't in their nature.

   You just ignored your Omega side and turned at the sign that directed you to the Henbane River. This county was big, this trip would take for-fuckin-ever if you didn't distract yourself. What was there to do in an unsuspicious white van racing through a Montana county taken over by a church? Listen to said church's music.

   The hymns Eden's Gate never really appealed to you. Especially John's, it was too egoistic for your tastes. The rare occasions you did listen to other music is when you would go with your family to other regions and a normal song played for a split second before being changed.

   Just with your fucking luck, 'Oh John' blared through the speakers. You gave a low growl and turned the sound all the way down until the volume knob snapped off. Complete silence filled the van. It was glorious. Not even the sounds or looks from outside seemed to bother you. You just looked at the members of your pack as you drove by and a small smile slipped onto your (s/c) lips.

   Having grown up in this kind of environment hasn't really changed your point of view, despite how much you wanted it to. You were slowly starting to understand John's true character, he always seemed like a beautiful dick to you, but he was still a dick.

   Your belief in the Father wavered quite a bit as well, but this was the only family you had. No matter how much you wanted to leave after everything you've seen, you couldn't. The Project of Eden's Gate had a hold on you and it wasn't going to let go.

   As you pulled away from the fields of the Holland Valley and into the Rivers of the Henbane, reality basically smacked you in the fucking face. It felt like pure adrenalin when you stole the van and now everything was coming together.
