“Speak plainly. What do you mean?” I mutter with a growl. I feel my heart racing, the organ threatening to burst from my chest.
Theo’s lips tilt with a smirk. “Your Omega is in heat.”
Crashing through the front door, my eyes are laser-focused on the stairs I very quickly run up. There is only one thing running through my mind as I come to a stop at the closed door of Valentina’s nest.
My Omega is in heat.
That the Omega is alsomine.
Her sweet cherry scent is thick in the air. Her arousal is just as potent, scrambling all rational thought in my brain.
Nothing has ever smelt as good as mydolce ciliegradoes right now.
With more grace than I have shown in the ten minutes it took me to get from the cemetery to here, I slowly open the door.
Getting hit with a fresh round of my girl's scent, I look down at the nest.
I can’t hide the genuine smile on my face as I look at Olis and Conall who have themselves wrapped around a very naked and asleep Valley.
From here, I can see a hint of Olis’ cock still knotted deep in her pussy. They must have only just drifted off before I got here.
As quietly as I can manage in this state, I slowly begin to remove my clothes until I am left in only my underwear. I keep the clothing close to the side of Valley’s nest, knowing she may find a need for them at some point during these next few days.
I don’t step foot into the nest. Instead, I sit right on the edge.
My eyes remain locked on the beauty in the centre of the bed.
Even in sleep, she has this radiant glow about her.
It baffles me that I could ever have thought that she was anything but a Beta. There is this certain air that Omegas have about them. This ethereal beauty that screams for an Alpha to treasure them.
Because they deserve nothing less than that.
Il mio cuoredeserves more.
Especially from me.
After my colossal fuck-up, I know that I don’t deserve to be here right now.
If Valley woke up right now and told me to fuck off, that is exactly what I would do. I’d let her be happy even if that meant removing myself from the picture, I would honor her request.
I would and will give her anything that she asks from me.
My pack, my job, my house. Fuck, even my life.
Because she deserves it all. Every pitiful part of me. It’s hers. I don’t deserve to love her. But I am a glutton for punishment.
I become so lost in my thoughts and self-loathing that I don’t realize someone is awake until a throat clears.
Blinking a few times, Valley quickly comes into focus.
Olis’ knot must have gone down enough to allow her to sit in between the two Alphas who are still asleep.
I can’t help but admire her naked flesh, my stomach in knots at the thought of finding a claiming bite on her neck. But I come up empty.
Instead of analyzing the mixture of thoughts I have about that realisation, I turn my attention back to her face. Blank features greet me and it makes my stomach roll further.
“You fucked up, Victor.”
