Page 29 of Knot That Difficult

I’m not lying. I’m going to buy him something nice.

I’m just going to happen to buy it in Isleton, where a certain Omega is.

“I don’t believe you,” he mutters.

“Well, the joke’s on you, then, because I’m coming back with something for you.”

Connor has about five more calls for the day, which is the perfect time for me to finally meet Devyn and see the Omega that has him so flustered.

I wanted to meet her before their date, anyway.

Why does he get to have all the fun first?

I’ve scented her before on him—the sweetest aroma of vanilla and coffee.

It compliments Connor’s scent perfectly, and it makes me hard as hell every time he comes back from the café.

Now I get to put a name to the face without my anxious, control-freak boyfriend there to overanalyze everything.

Seriously, he needs to lighten the fuck up.

“Baby,” I breathe, and I kiss him again, and this time, he kisses me back. “Enjoy your meetings. I’ll be back later.”

He growls against my lip. “You’re infuriating,” he mutters against my lips.

I chuckle and pull away. “You love me.”

“That doesn’t change the fact that you’re infuriating.”

But then his phone rings, and I raise an eyebrow.

“Better answer that, hotshot. I’ll be back.”

I ignore his scowl and head out of his office, ready to make myself presentable for our future Omega.

Isleton is quaint as fuck.

I thought our town was small, but Isleton is something else entirely.

But I love our place. Connor offered to buy us something in Stone County, where all those rich fucks live, and I laughed in his face.

What the fuck would we do with a twenty-bedroom house and an elevator?

Besides, I would neverwanthim to do that for me. He’s already done so much for me. He’s seen me the way no one else has and wanted to give me a second chance at my future.

I owe my Pumpkin the entire fucking world, which is why I’m not going to let Connor mess things up with this Omega.

Devyn’s the one. I just know it.

I haven’t even met her, but the way Connor’s face lights up when he talks about her is ridiculous.

He’s smitten, and it’s adorable.

So is the little town she resides in.

I haven’t even parked yet, and I’m already imagining how we could set up her nest at our place.
