Before Gina’s arrival…
It was past dawn.
My first dawn as Seifiek’s equal.
I should have been content that I’d achieved the unachievable.
I’d not only become an Alpha, but I had also claimed Seifiek.
I had taken him asmine.
Yet, with the cold stone at my back and my eyes glued to the dark ceiling above me, it didn’t feel like I’d obtained a victory.
I’d survived to see another day—what little there was to see of it, anyway.
Not to mention I desperately wanted to hold Gina. Seifiek and I had formed a unique bond, one that fed each other our Dust and permanently linked our futures together.
But we still needed our Omega. My hunger for her only grew after the intense bonding with Seifiek.
Hunger that I roughly pushed down because I had no control over when I would get to see her again. I could only hope it would be soon.
For now, I had to build my strength.
I had slept quietly after a rough session with Seifiek. That had only lasted a few hours and now I was awake and hungry. Not starving, thanks to our power exchange, but Seif hadn’t mentioned if we’d be getting breakfast. Or lunch, perhaps. I had no idea what time it was.
Rolling my head, I took in the striking details of his face and the new jagged scar of silver running down his shoulder. It was an obvious display of where my claim had manifested on him.
It was massive compared to the twin silver pinpricks Gina had given him.
I wasn’t sure what everyone was going to think about that.
His mind didn’t seem to be dwelling on public opinion, though. His attention remained fixed on some faraway place while his brow creased with thought. He rested within reach, likewise flat on his back, looking up somewhere past the stone. His striking silver eyes remained focused on some distant problem.
Or future.
One where all of our lives hung in the balance.
As prisoners, I imagined our next meal was the least of our concerns.
My gaze couldn’t help but scan over his perfect physique. My attraction for him had only grown after our mutual bond.
But we hadn’t initiated another round because now that we hadn’t killed each other, Amell would be throwing some new test our way.
A test Seifiek was fully focused on, proving that he was the better Alpha, for the moment.
Huffing, I rolled my head and resumed my pensive pose.
The future.
That’s what I should be thinking about. Not about fucking Seif again.
Although, it was hard not to allow the memories to play over in my mind.
The heat.
The delicious resentment.
Thevictory.
