“We’ll put a baby in you,” growled Logan. “Don’t worry. During your next heat cycle—before and after—we’ll knot you over and over until you’re pregnant.”

“What’s going on?” I asked Henry as I stood in his lavish chamber seven months after rejecting the omega I loved. My boots sank into the green velvet carpet as I waited.

He only summoned me to his personal quarters during an emergency, and to me, there wasn’t one happening at the compound currently.

“Glad you could get here on time,” Henry’s smooth voice cut through my thoughts. He lounged casually in a luxurious armchair, wearing a plush robe.

“So what’s going on?”

“Are you in a hurry to go somewhere, Tyler?”

I sighed. “Cut the crap, Henry. You’re not going to intimidate me like your cronies.”

Henry laughed, looking more excited than ever. “That’s why I hired you, Tyler. Anyway, I’ve received news.”

“News?”

“About Carmen,” Henry said nonchalantly, making my heart clench painfully at the mention of her name. “She’s living in Florida now with Logan, the traitor, and his pack.”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course, I’m sure. And I’m not allowing more alphas and omegas to disappear from our home again. It will not be tolerated.”

My mind raced with worry that he still hadn’t gotten over his obsession with Carmen. My rejection of her had to be worth her safety, at least, but somehow he’d gotten intel on where she was.

“How did you find her?”

“I had people looking for her, and it seems she’s living in a beach home… for now.”

“What if she’s already bonded to her pack?”

The thought of her permanently marked and bonded by Logan’s pack made my stomach twist, but I had brought this punishment upon myself.

“I will still have her,” Henry said. “I’ll need to come up with a fitting punishment for Logan and his pack for stealing her from me. They will need to be set as an example for the entire community.”

Fuck my life.

“It’s not a good idea. You’ll lose loyalty.”

“And I’ve already lost it. What more can I lose?” Henry replied with a smile.

“Even if Carmen is already bonded, you can’t just waltz in and mark her again,” I said through gritted teeth, trying to make him see reason. “It could kill her, Henry. An omega needs to be marked by the same pack. Otherwise, they could die from disloyalty.”

Henry’s smug expression ignited a firestorm of rage within me. His callous disregard for Carmen's well-being made my blood boil, and I clenched my fists to keep from lunging at him.

“That will be the lesson that Logan and his pack will learn. Can you imagine his suffering once she’s gone from hislife?” Henry said, smiling.

The air felt heavy and suffocating as I realized the magnitude of the situation. My breath came in shallow gasps, sweat breaking out on my forehead. I nodded in agreement, but internally, I knew there was no way in hell I would ever hand Carmen over to this monster on a silver platter.

“So what do you want me to do about it?”

“I’ll give you her exact location, and you will bring her to me.”
