I won’t force them to be with me, I’m better than that—Ideservebetter than that.

If they don’t want to be my happily ever after, I’ll find someone else who will.

Sadly, I’d have to kill them first because there's no way in hell I’d allow them to be with anyone else, knowing they’re meant to be mine.

But, so far, I don’t think I’ll have to go that route. Although Leroy and Walker are still to be determined. It would be a shame because they are both so pretty to look at.

“Yeah, I’m out.” Duchess sighs heavily. “Be good, Savvy.”

I snort a laugh. “You do know who you're talking to, right?” I call out as she walks out of the kitchen.

“Okay, fine, no killing people who don’t deserve it. If you do, be smart about it,” she calls back.

“Define deserve!” I cup my hand around my mouth and shout.

She doesn’t answer, and I grin, spinning around to face my Alphas. My Alphas. Life sure is crazy.

“So.” I clap my hands. “What do you wanna do now?”

Caleb and Jake look at one another before Caleb turns to me. “A lot has happened, and it hasn’t even been a full twenty-four hours. Don’t get me wrong, all of it is amazing.” He grins. “But there’s still a lot to talk about. How about you pack a bag and come stay at our place for a few days. We can talk, get to know one another a bit more, and see where we go from there.”

I frown. “Talk? Why do we need to talk?” I tilt my head to the side. “You’re my Alphas, my scent matches. I’m your Omega. We’re together now. Right?”

Isn’t that how it goes?It’s what I’ve seen in the movies: they meet, fall in love, and live happily ever after. I know it doesn’t always work out that way, but I don’t see any reason why it can’t with us.

“Are you second-guessing what I do?” I ask, narrowing my eyes. “Because it’s a non-negotiable. I have a plan, and I’m sticking to it, no matter how long it takes. I will also continue to work for Duchess. I won’t be quitting my job to be a stay-at-home housewife. I’d go crazy.”

Caleb gives me a sly grin. “You mean, you’re able to get more crazy than you already are?”

I bite my lip, my belly filling with butterflies. “Trust me, big guy, you haven’t seen anything yet.”

He groans, grabbing at his dick. “Talk dirty to me, baby.”

Jake snorts a laugh. “Great, there's two of you. You're going to drive us all crazy, I just know it.”

“That's okay.” I take Jake’s hand, lacing my fingers with his. He looks down at me, a softness filling his eyes. “We can all be crazy together. It’s not all that bad.”

His lips quirk up. “Sounds like fun.”

My eyes widen in excitement. “It is! There’s never a dull moment.”

He chuckles, pulling me against him, his arms wrapping around me. I whimper, burying my face into his chest and inhaling deeply, his smell settling something inside my soul.

“I’ve missed you so fucking much,” he whispers, his voice cracking.

I’m confused for a moment, about to tell him I was only upstairs, but then I remember. He knows the old me. They all do.

I want to know more about that, but I’m not going to ask right now.

“I’m here,” I murmur, hugging him tighter.

“Yeah,” he croaks. “You are, aren’t you?”

Guilt twinges in my stomach at the fact that I don’t remember him. I’ve never really cared about remembering my past. If it happened, awesome; if not, I wasn’t going to let it stop me from living my life.

But at this moment, I want nothing more than to remember this man. To remember all the time we spent together. I’ve never felt more robbed of the life I was supposed to have than I do right in this moment.

But until I remember—and that isifI ever do—I plan on making new memories with him. Starting today.
