Pushing the plethora of blankets and pillows out of my way, I pop my head out of the pile I buried myself under. Squinting, I look around and find my phone sitting on the edge of my bedside table, all the way on the other side of the room.Fuck.
It feels like I’m trudging through cement as I pull myself to my feet and walk over there.
Grabbing my phone, I answer it. “Hello?” My voice is groggy, like I haven’t talked in days. I guess I haven’t.
“Tucker, dude, are you coming into work today? You’ve missed the past few days. Are you okay?”
“Fuck,” I groan, remembering I didn’t call in sick for today. “Sorry, been feeling under the weather.”
“How much longer are you going to be sick for? Is your heat coming? If so, I can let them know. Maybe an officer can come over and help.”
The idea of having another person in my house, touching me, leaving their scent on my things makes me want to puke. “No, nothing like that. It’s fine. I’m fine.” I’m really not. “I can comein today. Just let them know I’ll be in later. I’ll take the night shift.”
“Alright, if you’re sure.”
“I am,” I sigh. No, I’m not. I want to go back to my nest and sleep. Better yet, I want to find Nova and beg her to bring me to her Alphas so I can find out which one is mine.
“Oh. Before I go, did you find out anything about the Mall Bandit case?”
Chris’s question has my spine going rigid. That’s another reason why I’m so fucking depressed.
I’ve spent so much time on this case and all of it was for nothing. I know I’ll never be able to turn them in if I ever find the evidence I need. Being the reason my Alpha goes to jail, his brothers too, while leaving their heart-broken Omega behind? Yeah, fuck that.
I love my job, this situation doesn’t change that. I’ll get a promotion some day. I’ll just have to find a bigger and better case, but it won’t be this one.
“Ah, no. She didn’t say much.”
“Huh,” he snorts. “Kind of suprised seeing I couldn’t get her to shut the fuck up. Man, she was crazy. Someone needs to lock her up.”
My brows furrow with anger.Is he fucking for real right now?He has the balls to criticize how she reacted when he was the one who was unprofessional and pretty much kidnapped the poor girl?
Chris disrespecting Nova like that makes my blood boil. “She was probably worked up over the fact you forced her into your car without telling her why or where she was going.”
“Really?” Chris grunts. “You're going to be like that? Fine, last time I do you a favor. Whatever. Let me know if you find anything else. I’ll keep an ear out.”
He hangs up and I stare at the phone. I don’t like the idea of him digging into anything that has to do with Nova and her pack. This is my case, and for now, I plan on acting like I’m still working on it so no one else touches it.
Knowing I can’t hide away at home anymore, I decide to suck it up, be an adult and go to work. Fuck me.
Sniffing myself, I grimace. Yeah, I need a shower. I’m embarrassed at the fact that it’s been a few days.
Grabbing some clothes, I head into the bathroom and turn the shower to hot. Stripping out of my dirty clothes, I toss them into the dirty hamper and step under the spray.
I groan at how amazing it feels against my skin. Maybe I should fill the tub and take a nice long bath.
No. If I do that, I know I’ll fall asleep.
Deciding to just get my shower over with, I wash my hair and body.
I wrap my hand around my cock to give it a good scrub and my mind fills with images of the Alphas of pack Emerson. Will and Ian are good looking men, don’t get me wrong, but they’re not the ones I’m attracted to. Nick is who fills my mind. “Fuck,” I groan as I imagine myself on my knees, taking his fat Alpha cock into my mouth. Him grabbing a handful of my hair as he holds me still, fucking my mouth and making me gag.
Nova pops in, sitting in the corner watching, her moans filling the room as she plays with her pretty little pussy, thrusting her fingers deep inside her.
I jerk myself off, eyes closed, breath coming in quick, heavy pants.
Nova moves from her seat and gets to her knees. Out of the corner of my eye, I watch as she crawls towards me, her heavy breasts swaying with every movement.
I breathe through my nose as spit drips down my chin, gagging on Nick’s cock. When Nova disappears out of my sight,I wonder where she is for a moment before I feel her hot mouth wrap around my cock.
