Hiroshi and Fionn took her shopping earlier, and it appears that omega is already making herself at home. I wonder what other demands she will make soon.
She may have the others willing to be at her beck and call, but not me. The only person I serve is my boss.
That’s how it begins. The omega slowly worms her way into your heart, and before you know it, you’re running around like a headless chicken, catering to her every need.
Ice in her cola, extra fluffy pillows, tubs upon tubs of ice cream in the freezer.
I crush the spoon in my hand, and the poor metal bends. Killian throws his menu down, penetrating me with those cold eyes.
His blond eyebrow rises. “Ted?
I growl, and a woman on the table opposite flinches. Killian doesn’t move his iceberg eyes off me.
“Fine. I’m... not happy with the arrangement. The... omega...”
Killian narrows his eyes. “You know she is not Beatrice, right, Ted? That woman is long gone. She can’t harm you anymore.”
I ball my fists and people move away the moment they catch wind of my diesel scent. I smell like car fuel when I’m mad.
“Still,” I seethe, grinding my teeth. “I don’t trust her. She definitely has a game plan of some kind.”
Killian chuckles, lifting the menu again to glance at the pizza toppings. “That’s where you are gravely mistaken, Ted. The power is inmyhands. I have that beautiful little creature right where I want her. She is my toy, my plaything, and she knows it. And if she so much as crosses me or our pack, then she is dead. I bought her after all. She doesmybidding.”
I can’t see his face anymore as he hides behind the menu, but I’m not so sure if I agree. I saw how he looked at her when she was sleeping before. His eyes were round with lust, but something else, too.
I know that look. That was how Beatrice made me feel for years, and there was a point where I would have been willing to die for her.
But that wasn’t love. That was obsession. That’s the effect an omega can have on an alpha, and we have to watch our backs.
Thank God we have Hiroshi. That beta will keep us alphas in check if we go AWOL. Then again, I’ve seen how he looks at her too, and I get it.
The omega is beautiful.
But that’s no reason for us to lose our heads.
She’s a devil in disguise.
There is a commotion at the door, and then I hear Fionn’s voice. I grind my teeth, turning around to look at the entrance.
What the fuck has he done now? It sounds like he punched someone again.
I forget how to breathe when my gaze lands on her.
Fuck.
My knot bulges in my pants, and I growl, yanking up my menu. My eyes glaze over the writing.
The blood still rushes through my head, and what was Fionn thinking, letting her leave the store in that?
Could you even call that a dress? It is way too short, and not to sound like the lass’s father, but she needs to change.
The only thing she has to cover her modesty is a cropped fur jacket and I just...
She’s doing it already; she is trying to warp our minds by wearing tiny dresses that hug her in all the right places. And don’t get me started on the bejeweled tracker around her neck.
The omega looks ravishing
The others head our way, and Killian only has eyes for her now. The moment she arrives, he takes her hand and kisses her knuckles.
