LOGINBeing an omega is the only crime Bethany ever committed. Her life is turned upside down by the betrayal of the man she loved and those she called family. Her wolf howls for revenge and to spite them both, she kisses her sexy as hell best friend and announces their marriage. A contract was never truly part of Bethany's option. It was only a ruse to defy her father but when presented with an ultimatum by him, things get drastic. Now, she has no choice but to marry her best friend. The plan was to not fall in love, but little did they know that love and attraction were no respecters of friendship. However, Bethany realizes a bit too late that the fire and need that ignites between them are the least of her problems. At least, not when some deep, dark secret that could either strengthen or threaten their bond is lurking around the corners.

My eighteenth summer.
A summer never to forget. The summer I .....I did the most abominable.I can't be blamed. I really can't. The forces of nature all had to turn their backs on me and send the most irresistible nemesis I have ever seen.A beautiful, attractive, stunning nemesis in the form of a man assigned to be my father.He......Anyways...the story goes thus....“Last card!!!!!“
Steven yelled and I groaned as I felt my world crumbling at that single sentence being said. I glared at grinning Steven who winked at me mockingly. “Just give it up, you know you have no choice.“ He said and i rolled my eyes.“Alright you won.“
I said and tossed the cards on the floor and he leaped up from the ground.“Hurray. I win again.“
He said and i smiled as i watched him celebrate around the house.“How the hell do you do it?“
I asked and he shook his head.“No. No. No. Nothing will ever make me expose my secret strategy….“
I waved my hand at him.
“Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I get it. It's definitely worth a try. Now let's get this sitting room in order before mom arrives with her new husband. We don't want to make a bad impression do we?“He chuckled and smiled.
“What do you think our new dad will look like?“ He asked as he picked up the litters in the sitting room.I smiled.
“How else, if not like she looks. He could be a million times older, you can't tell.“ I said and he rolled his eyes.“I'd better not judge that way if I were you. Mom has a way of picking out good looking men…..“
I scoffed.
“Where the hell do you want to find a good looking man that's above the age of forty?“ I asked and he scoffed.“You might be surprised.“
He said and walked up to the kitchen. I sighed and shrugged as i packed the rest of the trash taking them outside to the trash can.I took a deep breath as she stepped out through the back door of the kitchen remembering what was to come before me the moment i got to the back lawn. And as usual, it met me.
A cute brown haired tempting cookie stood there as usual mowing the lawn at the other side of our fence. And he was shirtless and sweating. Definitely hot. I smiled and bit my lip admiring his glistening muscular arms gripping the machine with every sturdiness. He suddenly paused to wipe away the sweat from his face. He took a deep breath and turned to me, catching me off guard.OH SHOOT!!!
I blinked rapidly and immediately rushed back into the house embarrassed that he had caught me ogling him. I took a deep breath and saw Steven staring at me with a glass of lemonade in his hands.“You know, you should just get over your crush on this guy if you can't even say hi to him.“
He said and i rolled her eyes.“Pfft. What makes you think I can't talk to him?“
“Because you spend every summer stalking his back and running away the moment he sights you. I am definitely sure he's going to start wondering what's wrong with you.“
I scoffed.
“Not like I care.““Yeah. Exactly. You don't care.“
He said and rolled his eyes heading towards the door to the kitchen. “Uhh…by the way, I'll be glad to announce to you that I am no longer a virgin.“ He said with a smile and i looked at him with wide eyes.“What?!!!!“
He chuckled.
“Yes sis. With my girlfriend. We kinda drank a lot at Joseph's party and it kinda turned into an orgy. Damn…..you should have been there. Everyone got laid. Even stubborn Betty.“I gulped.
“Just what is the younger generation turning to these days?“ i chuckled. “Wow. I am completely blown away.““Believe me sis. You should try it. It feels so good to be laid. Go grab that cute guy next door and invite him for an orgy lunch before he rips his pants off with his erect cock.“
I blinked.
“What?!!““I can tell that guy wants to take you to bed.“
I flushed and shook my head.
“Yeah. Right. Like he would….“DING DONG!!
The doorbell rang and we looked at each other. “Okay. Mom's home. Time to see new daddy Bosco.“ Steven said and i rolled my eyes.We both made sure everything was in order then Steven walked up to the door while i stood back with a smile.
He opened the door and…..
“YOU ARE WELCOME!!!!“
We both exclaimed and mom smiled at us both..I walked up to her and hugged her tightly.
“Miss you so much Mom.“ I said and she smiled.“I've missed you too, baby. How's college?“
“Cool.“
“You didn't ask me about school?“
Steven said with jealousy and mom smiled.“Oh I know you are always alright. Aren't you a big boy?“
She said and he beamed. “Alright. I would like to introduce you two to Fredrick….“I glanced behind her to see the man we hadn't noticed had been right behind her all the while and my eyes went wide.
OH WOW!!! WHAT IN THE HEAVENS……He smiled charmingly and walked up to us with his beautiful gaze not leaving me for once.
“Hello kids.“ He said with the softest sexiest silk voice i had ever heard. HOLY…. MOLLY!!!!I was so dazed for a long period that i didn't notice his extended hand towards me.
“Marilyn.“ Mom called my attention, jolting me from my field of thoughts. I looked at her and she gestured towards his hand.
“Oh.“
I chuckled. “I am so sorry. I just….I became confused.“ I said and he smiled.“It's alright. I get that all the time.“
He said still not taking his gaze away from me and that was driving me insane. CAN'T HE STOP STARING AT ME?!!!!God!!!!!
He's so beautiful. How the hell is this even possible? He's definitely older than mom isn't he? But jeez..... mom looked even older than him.Or did she decide to pick fish from the younger flock? All these questions ran through my mind as mom held his hand romantically and dragged him towards the sofa.
I folded my arms and watched them. Mom seemed so happy with him.I chuckled softly to myself.
Steven was right. Mom really got a good catch. And it itched me all over that this amazing good catch hadn't taken his gaze away from me all long.“I will be right back. Let me get some drinks.“ mom said and i beamed.
“Sure. I'll go with you mom.“
I said with the attempt to get as far away as i can from this beautiful god sitting in our sitting room with his long muscular legs crossed piercing me with the most beautiful alluring crystal blue eyes and smiling. I couldn't help blushing stupidly as i made to follow mom but….“No no no. Stay back and keep your daddy company. I'll handle it. You don't have to.“
“But….“
“No buts Marilyn.“
She said and i grunted. I turned to see him relaxed against the chair smiling at me.“You don't have to avoid me Marilyn. I don't bite.“
He said and i found herself blushing profusely with the way he said my name so sweetly. I bit my lip and nodded slowly and nervously.“I wasn't running from you.“
I said and sat down on a sofa quite far away from him. Steven walked up to him and sat beside him.“So. New dad…. “
he began. “It's good to know you and welcome to our home.“ He said and Fredrick smiled at him.“I like you already. You seem much more welcoming than your big sister over there.“
He said and i turned to him just in time to see him wink at me.HOLY SHIT!! DID HE JUST………
I blinked and blushed uncontrollably before turning my gaze away quickly with my heart thumping wildly in her chest.
“Uhhhh….I'll be right back. I gotta go check out something I dropped on the lawn.“ I said and turned to go.“Are you sure about that or it's just another excuse to get away from me?“
He said and i paused in my tracks.“It has nothing to do with you….Dad.“ I said and walked away.
*****
He smiled and nodded, turning his attention back to Steven who chuckled softly and they both laughed.
“Your sister is a little fiesty. How old is she?“
Steven smiled.
“She's eighteen. Just turned eighteen last month.“ He said and Fredrick smiled. “What about you? How old are you?“ Steven asked him and he chuckled.“Well you might not believe me since that's always the case when I tell people my age but uhh… I am forty-five.“
Steve's eyes went wide.
“What??!!!! You are forty-five?!!!“ He exclaimed and Fredrick chuckled.“Yes my boy. It seems I have the young looking gene strong in my bloodstream.“
He said with a chuckle and Steven smiled.“Obviously, Dad. Damn. I thought you were twenty something or so. I also thought my mom had made a mistake this time.“
He said and Fredrick laughed.“No. She didn't.“
“So..you play football?“
Steven asked and Fredrick chuckled.“Don't fret it. I play almost every game of every kind.“
“Oh wow! That's splendid. I have a football practice I go to every weekend, you could come with me. I need a steady coach. I get bullied every time by my mates for my poor skills.“
Fredrick smiled.
“Sure. I will be glad to train you once in a while and clear that confidence off their faces.“ He said with a smile and Steven beamed.“I know it's not a mistake you stepped into our home.“ He said and Fredrick smiled.
He glanced at the door at which Marilyn exited from. “Yeah. It's definitely not a mistake.“
Bethany's POVI couldn't tear my gaze away from Gerald's face as we drove out of the Royal Villa. He had only been away from the pack for like what? Five months? Just how did he live his life during those five months? The Gerald I knew would always cower before Dad, but this new version of him was really scary.And what was it about him calling me wifey? I suddenly felt his gaze on me and as my eyes locked on his rich brown orbs, I forgot how to breathe.I had to fight the sudden urge to fan my face as his gaze bored into mine unwaveringly. I shifted uneasily in the seat and he must have noticed it because he soon smiled and then looked away.Was it the kiss we shared that was making me react to him this way? Made me so aware of him, physically? He was my fucking best friend! So what if he was as sexy as hell?I couldn't let a pesky feeling ruin our friendship. Plus, I still hadn't broken the mate bond with Trevor.The car's tires screeched to a halt in front of his house and I follo
Bethany's POVI found myself fighting for oxygen when he broke the kiss. His lips had been so firm, demanding complete surrender. I had to admit, Gerald kissed like a pro which was so surprising judging by the fact that he was always so uninterested in women I once thought he was gay. I shouldn't have enjoyed the kiss. I was only trying to get back at Trevor for cheating on me. But I'd be damned if I said I didn't enjoy it."You slut!" Trevor's voice broke into my head.But before I could speak, Gerald was standing in front of me, shielding me from Trevor. He was taller than Trevor which gave him an advantage."Address my woman like that, one more time and it would be your head flying to that corner!"There was something about the way he said it that sent an unholy shiver down my spine. Did he just call me his woman? And why did that make me feel so hot?I furrowed my brows as I assessed him again. Sure, he was best friend of five years but why did he feel so different? More powerfu
Bethany's POVMy wolf made a whimpering sound in my head and I knew she was in pain.My knees gave way and I would have slid to the ground if not for the strong arms that wrapped firmly around my waist, pulling me against their sturdy chest.I was distracted for a moment and I swallowed hard as I sniffed the ever-so-familiar scent of the man.Slowly, my eyes raked over his gorgeous face, framed by the tousled strands of thick black hair. His rich brown slanted eyes and finely chiseled jaws accentuated his facial contour and it took me a while to realize that the man was none other than my best friend."Gerald?" Surprise flared in my whisper as I recoiled out of his arms. He was back in the pack? Oh! He must have come to celebrate with me but look at who is celebrating with a view of her cheating fiance.He gave me a sympathetic look and then whispered. "Let's just leave, Beth."Tears burned the corner of my eyes, blurring my vision as I turned away from him. No, I couldn't. If I trie
Bethany's POV"CEO Beth?" Trevor's voice drifted in at the same time my office door squeaked open.A smile crept up my face as my mate, and fiance sauntered towards me. He looked so perfect in those finely tailored suits and I knew he wore them to celebrate my achievement.He reached me and wrapped his arms around my waist while I brought my lips to his, planting a light kiss. I tried to pull back but his hand sneaking into my dress stopped me.My eyes went wide. "Trevor!"He winked and I laughed. "Actually, I have a---"A loud knock on the door cut me off and we leaped apart, startled. The knock persisted and even increased so I quickly adjusted my dress and went to open the door. A frown immediately appeared on my face as my stepsister's face came into view. She peeped inside my office and then slanted me a disdainful look. "It's your big day yet you're keeping everybody waiting. That's so like you!" She hissed.I scoffed. "Anyone who heard you would think you really cared. The ce
