We weren’t heading back to the ranch.The road was familiar, one I had driven only a few weeks ago with Draven. Was he going to take me back? Was he pissed at Bella because she agreed to letting me stay?My breathing sped up the closer we got to the Omega Center. I clutched at the hem of my shirt and tried my best to think of something I could say to make him change his mind, but the panic rising wasn’t helping at all.“Please don’t take me back,” I cried. “I’m sorry I kissed Michel and I’m s-sorry Jackson broke into the cottage.”The truck slowed and then pulled over to the side of the road. I would beg him if I had too. I would do anything he wanted me to do just so he would turn the truck around.“Breathe, baby.” The seatbelt slipped away and a second later I found myself seated across his lap. “It’s okay. Breathe for me.”He rubbed my back, right over the aching spot. Whimpering, I pressed my face to the crook of his neck and tried to suck in his scent. It was a struggle but his c
Boundaries. Limits. Safe words. What did that bastard do to her? How did he touch her? What did he force her to do? How did he make her touch him? I gripped the steering wheel tighter as images flashed through my mind. They’d showed me the videos recorded when she told them what had been done to her. I’d seen the photos in her files of the bruises and the x-rays from broken bones. I’d read the reports about the issues she had. I knew everything there was to know about her, yet I knew nothing. There was a moment where I actually considered walking away. This was something...someone who needed extra attention and time. It would have been no problem to work on all her problems if the conditions had been different. But her heat was close and it made things so much more complicated. How was I going to prepare her for what laid ahead? “When he...” I sucked in a breath. “Did he make you take his knot?” I forced the words out. “No,” Sin said softly. “He was scared that M—she woul
Tears prickled my eyes as I stared down at the mess. My clothes and the few things I owned had been removed from the cottage after they said it was save to enter. It all smelled like smoke, no matter how many times I washed it in the bathtub. I leaned back and pressed a cold wet hand to my forehead. The pounding in my head just wouldn’t go away. I wasn’t sure whether it was related to the hot and cold flushes that had increased the moment we got home. “What are you doing, sweet pea?” Michel asked, making my body jerk in fright. My eyes snap up to his when he crouched next to me which was apparently a bad thing to do. Before I knew it, I was a sobbing mess. He made a sound at the back of his throat and pulled me up with him as he stood. My legs automatically wrapped around his hips when he picked me up. “Tell me what’s troubling you,” he muttered. “Let me fix it.” “N-nobody can f-fix it,” I cried. “It’s all r-ruined.” “What is?” I pointed a finger at the clothes in the bathtub
I searched her face for the signs of a panic attack Bella had pointed out. She was panting, thighs squeezed around my hand and nails digging into the skin of my wrist. Her eyes were closed and her slips slightly parted. But her skin was flushed from her chest, up her neck and her cheeks. Sweat coated her every inch of her pale skin and her sweet scent filled the room, making my mouth water. Sin tilted her hips, and whimpered when my fingers brushed her clit again. Another shuddered ran through her body, followed by a sharp intake of air. Licking my lips, I glanced down her body at my hand trapped between her legs. “More?” I questioned softly, but she didn’t seem to hear me. I moved my hand instead, slipping it a little lower to trace her slit which was apparently the wrong thing to do. She tensed. I stilled but kept my hand in place. “Open your eyes, doll,” I whispered. “Look at me.” Her eyes slowly fluttered open. My eyes dropped to her lips when she licked them and then up to
“I can’t do an ultrasound like they want, but everything else on this list is a go.” Bella was busy removing things from the bag she had carried with her. “They want a detailed report of your body changes and some samples. I’ve been told that it’s important to get everything on the list because it’s your first heat.” “None of the other Omegas had this done to them,” I said softly. Bella glanced at me. “Guess you’re a special Omega then.” I didn’t like the way she said it. I didn’t like the fact that she was back to being cold towards me after the dinner we shared. She had laughed with me and included me in their conversation, but now that we were alone, it was like she couldn’t get away from me fast enough. “Take a seat,” Bella ordered. “I need a blood sample.” Walking over to her, I took a seat on the edge of the bed and held out my arm. I stared at her hand on my arm as she cleaned my skin and searched for a vein. "I'm supposed to answer some of your questions." "You don’t ha
I was seated on Michel’s lap facing Bella with my legs resting over his and his fingers locked with mine. His warm breath fanned my neck and ear, making goosebumps break out over my skin.“Close your eyes,” Michel ordered softly.My eyes fluttered closed as he raised our hands to my hips. They slipped underneath my shirt and came to rest on my stomach.“You’re all alone in bed. It’s been a long day and you’re aching for some relieve.” His lips brushed against my earlobe. “You’re wearing only your shirt because you removed your panties before you slipped into bed. Slowly you slip your hands underneath your shirt, up your stomach to your breasts.”As he spoke, our hands slid up my stomach to cup my breasts. I sucked in a breath when he flicked a finger across my nipples.“You play with them, squeezing and flicking your fingers across your nipples. Teasingly until you need more. Do you need more, sweet pea?”I nodded.Michel pressed a kiss behind my ear. “Slowly you spread your legs as o
It wasn’t what I was expecting.Honestly, it topped Tyrone’s gift but I wasn’t going to tell him that.The room was small, but not too small. There were no windows on the wall, but there was one on the ceiling. Tyrone told me that it was called a skylight and that during the day it would allow sunlight into the room or I could watch the stars at night. The bed was built into the floor, the size of one wall to another and decorated with fluffy blankets and a few pillows.Right in front of me, next to the bed was a wooden shelf. It had a few things packed on it here and there but I was too far away to see it clearly. Small white lights decorated the shelf and some spots on the carpeted floor around the shelf.“There’s a bathroom.” Tyrone pointed to the door behind us. “It’s not that big but it has the essentials.”“What’s in there?” I pointed to the four boxes that had been stacked against the wall in the space between the bed and the bathroom door.Tyrone smiled. “Open it and see.”I t
“When I asked you to message Bella, I trusted you enough not to snoop through my phone,” he growled. “You not only invaded my privacy but Bella’s too.” “Hey, doll,” Tyrone called softly. “Can I join you?” I tugged the blanket lower and opened my eyes to look at him. Tyrone was hovering in the doorway, staring down at me with a frown. Had Michel told him? When I gave him a nod, he kicked off his boots and carefully stepped over the pillows to join me. “Are you feeling okay?” he questioned as soon as he was settled next to me. I nodded. He reached out and tugged the blanket lower, exposing my whole face. “Is he gone?” I whispered. His eyes darkened with anger. “Yes. Did he hurt you?” “No.” Reaching out, Tyrone pressed a hand to my forehead and slowly slid it down to my cheek before pulling his hand away. “How long have you been hiding under these blankets, doll?” he asked. “You’re burning up.” I pushed the blanket lower, aware of the fact that he was right. My shirt was clin
I will not be like my mother.I’ll be good for our baby.I’ll love it and care for it. It’ll have a family with two moms and two dads.“Okay, let’s get a look at this baby.”I gripped Tyrone’s hand tighter as the doctor squirted some cold gel onto my stomach. His eyes locked with mine when he raised my hand to his lips and pressed a kiss to my knuckles. “Is this your first scan?”Tyrone looked at the doctor. “Yes.”“The baby is growing accordingly, and your weight is right on point.” I flinched when the doctor pressed the wand to my stomach and spread the cold gel around. “And there’s your baby.”My eyes stayed glued to his face. I watched as his eyes widen and his lips slowly curl up into a smile. His hand tightened. “Look at our baby, doll.”I didn’t want to look. But I wanted to look. Our baby. I slowly turned my head to look at the small screen. My heart slowed to a stop before it began beating erratically a few seconds later. There it was. So small.“Your baby is fully f
“Did Sin ever get her birth implant?”I paused for a few seconds and then slowly continued to lower the bag to the floor. “Why?”Michel shrugged. “I’m just asking.”“No, you’re not.”Michel swallowed loudly. “David said that there are a few possibilities for Sin to want her nest.”I pursed my lips, stopping myself from mentioning what Bella told me about Kate and David. We had agreed not to mention it to Michel and Sin because we didn’t want to upset them on the trip. And what a trip it was. A damn fucking mess. “You think she’s pregnant.” I leaned against the back of the couch and frowned at him. “There are a lot of reasons for an omega to want her nest, Michel. Just because she wanted to come home, doesn’t mean that she’s pregnant.”He growled at me and then stormed out of the house. I watched him as he grabbed the last few bags from the car and stormed back into the house. Dropping them next to the others, he straightened to glare at me. “Don’t look at me like that,” I muttered.
Having sex in a hotel bathtub was not ideal. Especially a tub so fucking small. The one in the master bedroom was custom build. Maybe we should’ve stayed at home. This trip was a damn waste. Tyrone hurt his foot before we even made it to the hotel and Sin wanted to go back home. She never said it straight to us, but I could sense it. When I planned this trip, I never took the other people into consideration. I had been thinking only about us. Our first night wasn’t so bad, but the start of our second day wasn’t a good one. Breakfast in bed, and morning sex, that was great. But Sin’s anxiety rose the moment we left our hotel room. Tyrone decided to stay back and rest while we went to the beach. Walking between us, she clung to our hands, eyes darted nervously around us. Some of the anxiety faded when we made it to the beach where only a few people sat. We chose a spot away from them. Bella spread the towels out on the sand while I set up the umbrella. Placing the cooler box down,
I felt bad. Tyrone not only twisted his ankle, but he also had an ugly cut on his heel. I had accused him of throwing us into the water on purpose and I had called him an asshole. My eyes drifted towards him where he lay on the bed, bandaged foot propped up on a pillow. It looked like he was sleeping. The doctor had given him two small white pills to drink before he left. For the next two weeks, Tyrone was supposed to stay off his feet as much as possible.Our first day on vacation was a bust. I sighed, turning to look back out the window. The hotel was located a few feet from the beach so I had a perfect view of the ocean and the activities below. There were a lot of people. More than I had anticipated when Tyrone mentioned a vacation. My anxiety levels spiked the longer I stared at them. Would they stare at me if we go down there?“Are you done unpacking?”I shrugged. “What’s the use of doing that if we won’t be staying for long.”Bella appeared at my side. She stared out of th
It’s not what you’re thinking.How could he know what we were thinking? All I got from David was that stupid text right after I tried to call him. He has been avoiding our calls since. I was tempted to drive out to his house and demand answers from him, but Sin’s excitement for our trip prevented me from doing that. She had been the one asking questions about Kate. She was right about worrying about Kate. Somehow she had managed to worm her way into David’s life. If Bella hadn’t seen them, would David have ever told us? He said it was not what we were thinking, so if they weren’t trying to tear us apart, what was it then? Were they dating? It would tear our friendship apart if she ended up being his mate. “Are we there yet?” My eyes snapped up when the soft question filled the air. To keep our destination a secret, we used blankets to cover the back windows. Another one had been used as a partition between the back and the front of the car. For most of the drive Sin and I had been
We’re going on vacation.Well, more like a short getaway because our trip was going to be a short one--only four days. I wanted it to be longer, but beggars couldn’t be choosers. It would be fun, only the four of us. Away from everyone and we would be able to forget everything that had happened the last few weeks. I was excited and despite not showing it, I knew that Sin was too. She told us that she had never been to the beach before. In about two days, she would. We had all agreed that our destination would be a surprise which was why I was in town.Sin needed some new beach clothes like a bikini. Michel had asked me to pick up a few other things that we needed because he was busy going over things to make sure that nothing went wrong on the ranch while we were away. “Bella?” I tensed. Pursing my lips, I slowly turned around. My eyes widened in surprise. The girl standing a few feet away was not the girl I remembered. I blinked, eyes trailing down her body and then back up to
Tyrone kept one hand pressed to the back of my head as he carried me out of the club. It took a few minutes for the sound of the club to fade and cool air to brush against my skin. Another few minutes passed and then we were back at the car.“Let go,” Tyrone ordered softly. My hold loosened when he started lowering me. After a moment he placed me on the seat. “Scoot over for me,” he ordered softly. I moved back across the seat, glancing around the dark car. Tyrone climbed in and then closed the door behind him. The lock clicked into place. He looked at me again and then held out his arms. He didn’t have to ask me twice. When I was within reach, Tyrone pulled me onto his lap and against his chest. My body instantly relaxed against his when he started purring. I hated and loved how an alpha’s purr affected an omega. Silence surrounded us until he broke it. “Tell me what happened,” Tyrone said softly.I swallowed. “I…I don’t like the b-bondage. It triggers m-memories.”Tyrone rub
Sin had a tight grip on my hand. She hadn’t let go since I took hold of her hand when we left the ranch. I was worried that she would have a panic attack, but she didn’t. Bella had done a great job at distracting her by playing a music guessing game. It was a surprise when Sin actually relaxed, but she tensed again the moment we arrived at David’s club. There were only a few cars parking in the lot which set me at ease a little. We had made arrangements for a private room but decided against the private tour because we wanted Sin to get the full experience of the club. Tonight the club would only be open for club members. There would be a few performances that we could watch if Sin wanted or we could head directly to the private room we had booked. The bouncer at the front door greeted us by name and barely even spared Sin a glance but I noticed that he did a double-take at the burned side of my face. Once we signed in and received our armband, we were allowed to enter. Bella
The things we ordered online started arriving two days later. I was busy unpacking the boxes in the bedroom when Bella joined me with a few more bags and a box. By now I recognized David’s club logo.“New toys?” Bella questioned when she dropped everything next to me on the bed. Colour flooded my cheeks. “I got some for Tyrone.”She raised an eyebrow. “Oh? Can I look?”I hesitated a few seconds and then nodded. Trying my best to ignore her, I continued pulling the clothes from the boxes and placing them aside. When the box was empty, I threw it to the floor and reached for another box. “I can’t wait to watch him try these out,” Bella muttered. “That is if you allow me to watch.”My eyes snapped up to hers in surprise. “Why do you say that?”“Because despite all of us being together there are times when someone would want some privacy.” Bella’s eyes dropped to the clothes on my lap. “Primarily you and Ty are mated so we’ll understand if you would like to spend time without us.”“Lik
