They both blinked, breaking out of the haze, then did exactly as I asked. Greek took the glass, his cheeks flushed, and began to sip. Demon, for his part, knelt down to wipe up the milk with a napkin he’d had on the edge of the tray.

They were well-behaved when guided, and the thought sent a thrill through me, unbidden. Images flashed in my mind, unrestrained and wild: the two of them taking instructions from me, obedient in far more... pleasurable settings. I could practically see myself with them, both of them pleasing me, attending to each other, all under my gentle direction.

I bit my lip, fighting to rein in my mind, but my body was already betraying me, the scent of my arousal intensifying,curling around us in the small room. They looked up at me again, their eyes darkened, and I could see that my scent was affecting them just as much as theirs was igniting me.

Their pupils dilated, and I knew they could smell the heat emanating from me, as undeniable as the lust that shimmered in their eyes.Damn you, biology.But I couldn’t deny that the look in their eyes made me want to surrender, to offer them the sweetness my body was craving to give.

My eyes kept flitting from one to the other. And a little jingle had taken up residence in my head.Sofia, Greek, and Demon sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N...What the hell was I singing in my head?

And why did they look like they were singing the same song in theirs?

CHAPTER NINE

GREEK

––––––––

An alpha had just fed me. And I let him. All because a beautiful beta encouraged me to do so. How... unexpected. Of course, I’d sniffed the food before eating it. To my surprise, it had smelled only of...food. No cum. No piss. Just food. Food for me. It smelled so good that it almost brought tears to my eyes.

To some, it was just food. Some didn’t realize how often they took having a good meal for granted. To me, that food had been a blessing. I never thought I’d eat such delicious and clean food again. It tasted even better than it smelled. I’d wanted to eat more. I’d wanted to eat all of it. But my stomach had protested, and I’d been forced to stop.

Instead of looking angry at me for not being able to finish what he’d prepared for me, the alpha...Demonhad turned to Sofia for help. It seemed she knew just what to say to bend this huge alpha to her will, which was shocking and amazing.

Seriously, I’d never seen an alpha as tall as him. It looked like he had muscles on top of muscles. And I refused to think about his scent that I felt he was masking with some type of scent blocker. Even with the blockers, it was still divine. While being near him and his intense fragrance made me nervous, the beta across from me kept me from trying to run away.

She was beautiful. And her scent had pulled me from my sleep, making me want to be awake to see who possessed such a glorious fragrance. I’d never been attracted to a beta before... well, I’ve never been attracted to anyone. Not when I wasn’t caught in the fever of a heat.

When I was in a heat, anything with a hole or a pole was fair game, which is why I hated being in heat. I hated sex. I hated what I was – an omega, cursed with a biology that forced me to need a knot. Not want one.NEEDone. However, I could feel desire stirring within me when this beautiful beta had stared at me earlier.

That desire had surprised and frightened me just a little. She’d spoken to me of hope and strength, speaking as if she truly believed there was a home out there for me. As if I could truly have a second chance at life now that I’d escaped the pack who’d held me captive. She only felt that way because she didn’t know what I was.

She didn’t know whotheywere – my captors. I was a catalyst, worth a lot at an auction. And they were the definition of true evil. They wouldn’t give up on me. Unless they were dead. Unless their enemies had succeeded and taken the entire pack down. But that presented a new problem. Their enemies knew about me.

Would they come for me when they didn’t find me at the pack’s compound? I swallowed, wanting to believe in her words, wanting to believe I was safe. If I stared at her long enough, I’d probably start to believe. But I was afraid to do that. Afraid this was all a dream. That I’d wake up back in my cold cage instead of on a soft couch in a warm cabin.

Afraid that I’d wake up back to being beaten and treated as a fuck toy instead of a human being. Instead of being fed by an alpha, I’d wake up to having an alpha slam his heel into my ribs. Instead of being smiled at by a beautiful beta, I’d have onethrowing food at me and telling me to eat it off the floor like the trash that I was.

I swallowed, still sipping the milk Demon had given me. I couldn’t believe he was truly cleaning the floor as Sofia had told him to do. Sofia, who was tied up at the moment. Yet, she didn’t seem afraid. I had no idea what was going on. Neither of them were behaving the way they should.

Alphas didn’t feed their omegas, at least, not in this day and age. And they sure didn’t obey betas. And betas didn’t have the courage to boss alphas around. I felt like I’d entered a new reality, or... maybe I truly was dreaming. I remained quiet, knowing if I spoke up, I’d probably anger one of them. I didn’t want either of them to be mad at me.

As Demon cleaned, Sofia stared from me to him. Suddenly, she burst out laughing. It was the most beautiful sound I’d ever heard. A sweet, chaotic melody that drifted through the air, raising goosebumps over my flesh. A sound I never wanted to end. I stilled. So did the alpha. Both of our gazes were drawn to her.

How could anyone look that happy? There was nothing sinister about her gaze or her smile. She reminded me of my past, a happier time in my life. A time when I was surrounded by bright smiles and pure joy. She reminded me of family. She reminded me that life could be heaven, not just hell.

I felt drawn to this woman in a way I’d never been drawn to anyone before. Then she licked her lips, and my cock jerked as I imagined my cock being the reason she was smiling so beautifully. I pictured myself rubbing my slick over her lips, coating them in my juices. My eyes widened as shock zipped through me.

What was I thinking?Howwas I thinking this? I never had thoughts like this. I hated my slick. I hated everything about... me.Damn it.I leaned to the side a little more, not wanting herto see the way her smile was affecting me. Shame filled me. How was I getting hard at a time like this?

She was nice to me. Kind. I shouldn’t be having dirty thoughts about her. Maybe I was just as filthy as Natalie insisted I was. I swallowed down the shame, hating myself for thinking dirty thoughts about the beautiful Sofia. The angel who’d called me beautiful and strong. I knew she could smell my arousal in the air. As an omega, there was no hiding how I felt.

I chanced a glance at her to find her gaze fixed on me. She licked her lips. I nearly choked on the milk I was sipping. I felt it dribble down my chin.Oh, no.I’d wasted some. I’d made a mess. My gaze darted to the alpha, waiting for him to get angry at me for being careless, for being me, the screw-up that I was.

My fingers tightened around the glass as shame crawled over my skin. He was the biggest alpha I’d known. His fist would hurt worse than those who’d come before him. I tensed my entire body, bracing for the impact.

Instinctively, I murmured, “I’m sorry... I didn’t mean to spill...” Before I could finish, Demon’s voice cut through the panic spiraling inside me.

“It’s okay,” he whispered, his tone gruff but unexpectedly soothing. “I’ll clean it up.”
