“Keep reading,” he says.
I skim the intro and get to the meat of the story.
Everyone has seen the footage that transpired a week ago at the Omega Fund Fundraiser between up-and-coming risers Smash Knot and socialite pack Sørensen, not to be confused with the infamous Sørensen pack featured in Omega’s Obsession.
Pack Sørensen 2.0 as we’re calling them, is comprised of Jonah Sørensen, the oldest son of the New York elite pack Sørensen. Former Air Force veteran Cole Mackardy, who is allegedly under investigation for misconduct with his former employer. And lastly, Mackenzie Mackardy, internet personality behind Mack’s Madness on Stitch Streaming Services.
What brought these two packs to physically brawl at a high end function? An Omega, of course, one by the name of Shiloh Hansen. Shiloh resided in LA with Smash Knot, living in their home in Agoura Hills for nearly two years, even though she wasn’t openly the band’s Omega.
I’m sure you’re wondering what happened to make this Omega fall into the arms of another pack and Knot Weekly has the scoop. We’re gracious enough to have Danny Levits take an exclusive interview with Knot Weekly to discuss the band splitting up and the rumors about their relationship with Shiloh Hansen.
I pause reading and look at Jonah. “I don’t need to read this.”
“Please read it,” he says, even though his face says the total opposite.
I glance back down at the phone and continue.
How long were you in a relationship with Shiloh?
For nearly two years, not bonding her is the deepest regret of my life.
Why didn’t it work out?
Nicky didn’t want the commitment of bonding, and as Pack Leader, we followed his lead. It’s what has led to us breaking up the band.
Are they going to find a new drummer for Smash Knot? Are you looking to join a new band?
Right now, I’m really just hoping to get Shiloh back. I couldn’t care less about what happens to Smash Knot. I just want to right my wrongs.
It appears after that night and what sources are saying, Shiloh seems happy with pack Sørensen. Is this interview an attempt to get her attention?
I won’t lie. It seems like my last choice. I’m not asking her to leave that pack. I’ll join them. I just want her back.
What is it that you love about her? Why do you want her back, and why should she even consider your plea?
The only time I was happy was when Shiloh was around. I feel lost and listless without her, like my skin is crawling. I know I wasn’t the best Alpha, and that’s on Nicky. I promise to do better; we had so many good times, and I want that back desperately.
I hand Jonah the phone back and he glances at me with bated breath as I throw my head back and laugh. When I’m done having my hysterical fit over the article, Jonah is blinking at me like I’m crazy.
“Oh my God, is this article why you two have been in such a shitty mood and Mack locked himself in his office?” I ask, and he bashfully nods his head. “Oh, Jonah,” I say, giving him a hug.
“If you wanted to give him a chance, we would try,” he says and I cup his face, giving him a messy kiss.
When we pull back from the kiss, the giant Alpha looks even more confused than ever.
“Danny misses having an Omega. He’s just now realizing how much I did for them and he wants that back. He doesn’t want me back, and I definitely don’t want him back. He could’ve stood up to them before that performance. He could have warned us beforehand, but didn’t. Being here, falling in love with you guys, has taught me so much more about myself and what I deserve. Why would I go back to that when I have the most perfect Alphas right in front of me?”
“Go back to that one part,” he says, and my cheeks hurt as I look at him and feel true happiness.
I thought I loved Nicky, Danny, and Ryan. But now that I know what this feels like, I know it wasn’t love; it was settling.
“I love you, Jonah.”
“Fuck,” he says, squeezing me so tight that I’m about to smack his shoulder for mercy, but he pulls back, his hands tangled in my hair. “I know this has been fast, a real fucking whirlwind, but the minute Cole pulled back that cart and I saw you sitting there looking so beautiful and scared I knew that you were special, that you were who I was waiting for. You’ve filled this place in my heart that was reserved for just you. I love you so damn much.”
We kiss for what feels like forever, promises of I love you’s in between as my heart pounds in my chest.
This is what it’s supposed to feel like. It’s supposed to be this easy.
