Yes! She’s talking about Omegas! Here’s my chance. “I don’t know,” I interjected. “Most of this is above my pay grade, but I’m not sure why an Omega would risk coming somewhere like this? I mean, you have a lot of security, but still.” “She has a point,” the masked man nodded. “I agree that they
“Olivia, this is your eighth failed pregnancy test in less than twelve months,” the doctor sighed. "We’ve tried almost everything. Maybe we can-”“I’m having a baby,” I said firmly. My jaw was set, but my eyes were watery.One year. An entire year of pills that gave me nausea and mood swings, inject
For a split second my mind said, ‘You know, Olivia, you should really ask a few questions about this situation.’ Then the man wrapped his arms around my waist and my mind said, ‘Fuck it.’At that moment I didn’t care if he was a call boy or what. He was here, and I was here, and as his hand tightene
It took a second for my words to sink in. When they did, both Damian and Louisa went a little pale.“Liv, baby—”“No,” I said firmly. “I am not your baby, we are not getting married, and I want you out of my house.” Damian’s mouth gaped open like a fish’s. It was funny, watching him realize his pl
I squinted at the ring I could see dangling around that Alpha’s neck. No, that couldn’t be mine—unless the call boy had sold it off that quickly? Why would another pack’s Alpha want it?Thankfully Greg didn’t indicate that he’d noticed it, just ranting on about how important it was that he become th
Elroy didn’t seem to think I was joking, but that was okay. He would never be allowed in the venue if he did show up, but it was still nice to hear him solemnly promise he’d be there.I was sure I’d never see him again, but I was grateful to him. I’d probably never understand why he’d let a virtual
Oh, I thought dumbly, I guess that explains how he got in the venue. Then I thought, Wait. Does that mean I tried to pay a pack Alpha for sex?Why either of those were my first thoughts was beyond me—there were far more important bits of information in there. Like, for instance, the fact that I had
Moonshadow deserved me. It wasn’t until we were outside of the building that Greg seemed to realize he could move again. “You ungrateful bitch!” he yelled after me. Then he was yelling wordlessly into the sky, a roar that became a howl, that was joined by more howls with every step I forced myself

Olivia’s POV The leather upholstered chair at the owner’s table was a siren call I couldn't ignore, and I made my way to it with tunnel vision. The line had been so long last time I looked, and now there was no one. I wouldn’t get an opportunity like this again. As soon as I sat down, though, th
“…It’s complicated,” she answered. "Complicated, huh?" I mused, more to myself than to her. "I suppose that's true of most relationships. How has it been different from what you expected?" She gave a little, humorless laugh. “Well, I’d expected to marry my Fated Mate, but that didn’t happen,” sh
Elroy’s POV This mask was strangely heavy, and a little hot. Sweat was gathering under the scent blocking patches Sam found for me, and I could only hope the cheap one-wash hair coloring wasn’t running down the back of my neck with the moisture. The shoulder pads felt awkward, and I was still gett
My harasser opened his mouth to argue, but something in the masked man's stance made him think better of it. He skulked away, muttering curses. The new man just stood there with his arms crossed, watching the creep go. With the drunk no longer a threat, I turned my attention to my supposed ‘savior
The chandeliers were a little too dusty to sparkle, and red carpet was worn thin under my feet, and it all felt like a world away from my usual haunts. In all fairness that’s exactly what it was. The only gambling I’d ever done had been around a kitchen table, so even a subpar casino was a huge chan
“She perked right up! Said the owner was hoping to ‘tap into the Omega market,’ and if she saw my sister she’d look out for her.” “That’s not creepy at all,” Jordan cringed. “It wouldn’t be if we didn’t know what we do,” I said, even though I firmly agreed with her. I could see why somebody woul
I felt bad, but I had to defy Iris once again. My strict bedtime schedule, as important as it was, was going to have to take a backseat tonight. Tonight, Matt was in the casino. Alone. Obviously neither Jordan nor myself were able to sit still, consumed with worry for our friend. I could hardly
"Luna," Matt said gently, reading the conflict on my face. "Trust me. I can do this." I exhaled slowly, nodding. "Okay," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "But we’re going to have a plan and a safety net. I’m not sending you in there blind, Matt.” We were about to start forming said plan whe
