Page 83 of Party Girl: How a Naughty Omega Finds Love
Hayden and Trev turn.
“Trash them, we didn’t file a report, and I wiped the call log.” Hayden glances at Trev. “Hope that’s okay.”
“Good thinking.” Trev claps him on the shoulder. “We shouldn’t stay here tonight.”
“Where would we go?” Hayden asks. “The only place we could go is Asher’s mom’s house.”
They slide their gazes to me. Once again, I’m the reason things are complicated.
“I can stay here. You guys should go.”
“No,” they say at the same time, venom covering the word.
“If it isn’t safe, you should go. They want me.”
“Whitney, I’m not—”
“You’re not staying here alone.” Trev cuts Hayden off, slicing his hand through the air. “Don’t suggest something so ridiculous again.”
I scoff. “Fine. Have it your way. We can all just die when Curtis comes back.”
He snarls, but Hayden puts his hand on Trev’s chest. “Easy, don’t bite her head off because you’re mad they got to us.”
“We’re going to Asher’s. Say we’re getting part of the house renovated.” Trev pins me with a look. “You’re coming too.”
“What about the Omega Council?”
“They’re the only ones who know who you are. We’ll lie and say you’re our omega now.”
“His mom will be pissed.” Hayden grimaces. “You know how she gets.”
“She’ll be fine,” Trev snaps. “You’re going to have to pretend to be our omega,” he says to me, coming closer. “Asher’s mom will expect you to act like it too.”
I bristle. “I can act like an omega.”
“An omega about to be mated? You don’t have mate bites yet so you’ll have to convince her you’re excited to be ours. What are you going to tell her when she asks about the bites?”
“I’ll figure it out,” I say through gritted teeth. “I’ll say I wanted to wait for my heat.”
Trev chuckles, eyes dropping to my lips. “You’re going to have to pretend like you like me.”
“I never said I didn’t like you.”
“Oh?” He quirks an eyebrow.
“Fine, you’re an asshole sometimes, but I don’t hate you. It’ll take more than a few cutting words to make me hate you.”
“You’re a bundle of joy to be around,” he drawls.
“Fuck you.”
“Soon.”
I gasp and step back, letting him know I’d never. He simply smirks like he’s won this round of verbal sparring. I don’t understand him.
“Come with me,” Hayden says, pulling my attention away from the rude-ass alpha.
“Gladly.” I shoot a venomous look at Trev.
He licks his lips.
My core clenches despite my every instinct telling me to avoid him like the plague. Messing with Trev is like playing catch with a bomb.
