ChapterTwenty-Three
TREV
Hayden pulls Whitney down the hall and I adjust myself in my pants as soon as he closes them in his room. I’m a bastard for being turned on right now, but she’s so easy to rile up. I glance around, releasing a hard breath when the reality of the day slams into me. The Omega Council and Curtis are looking for this woman. Common sense says to give her up, but something about that doesn’t sit right in my stomach. Camila is a ruthless bitch, and Curtis will eat her alive.
Whitney isn’t exactly fragile, but she deserves better than those two assholes. Asher comes out of my bedroom. His eyebrows are pinched together, and he doesn’t say anything to me until after he drinks a full glass of water.
“He’s in rough shape.”
“I know,” I say.
Maddy did all she could, but she’s only a paramedic. Aside from a few scrapes, Avi wasn’t physically hurt. An incident like this could set Avi back. He’s made a lot of progress with therapy and being off work, but today is even more reason to keep him off duty. As much as I hate to admit it, my friend is still a work in progress. Whitney makes him smile though, and for that I’ll make sure she’s safe. It’s not smart to stay with her as she gets closer to her heat, but it’s the only choice that makes sense.
“Can you call your mom? See if the guest house is open?”
Asher has two older brothers, but they have their own homes. He grew up better off than the rest of us, but he’s still low pack. The mother-in-law’s quarters is a cute two-bedroom cottage style home with a lot less space than this place. Being cramped in a house with an omega near pre-heat is going to be torture. I’m already semi-hard thinking about it.
“Yeah. I’ll start packing.” Asher runs his hand through his hair.
“Good. I’ll get Avi’s stuff ready.”
He turns to leave but pauses and glances at me. “We could have lost them both.”
It’s inconvenient that losing her would hurt. Things are already complicated enough.
One thing I know for certain? Nothing about that omega is simple.
