She doesn’t answer with words, instead some soft little mewling noise before she grabs my jaw and brings our lips back together. It’s a combination of me pressing her down against me and her grinding her hips.

Her scent is choking me in the hot tub, along with her bikini-covered pussy sliding against my length. I can’t help it as my knot starts growing. Hailey notices and starts picking up the pace.

“Are you going to use me, Hailey? Are you going to grind that sweet little pussy on my knot till you come, baby girl?”

“Fuck,” she hisses, grabbing the back of my neck, her nails lightly digging into my skin. “I want you to…to come too,” she pants out.

“You want to be the first Omega who makes me come?” I ask her.

It sends her over the edge, her hips going wild, her scent digs deep into every synapse of my brain. I hold her close, rubbing my knot against her as she holds me close, meeting her release.

I grind against her, not giving her a break as I rub my dick all over her sweet cunt and wonder how good it will feel to have my knot deep inside of her.

The thought alone is what has me following her release as I come all over myself, filling my swim trunks.

Hailey is limp and soft in my arms, and we both just sit there for a moment, catching our breath. The jets turn off and the water stills as Hailey pulls back. She glides her fingertips over my jaw and looks at me for a long moment.

“That was okay?”

I give her a smile and nod as I place a small kiss against the corner of her mouth.

“More than okay. I haven’t finished in my pants in like a decade.”

She grins. “I won’t tell anyone if you don’t.”

“You can tell whoever you want. I had a beautiful Omega on my lap who rubbed herself all over me until she came. I’d say that would make just about anyone jealous.”

She licks her lips. “This doesn’t feel real. It feels too good to be true.”

I push a wet lock of hair off her face. “I know you designated late, and I can’t imagine what that was like, but if there’s anything my mother ever taught me, it’s listening to your instincts. Pheromone driven, or the ones in your gut.”

“And what do your pheromones tell you?”

“My Alpha instincts and my gut tell me the same thing.”

“And what’s that?” she asks inquisitively.

“That we’re going to be a pack and that it doesn’t matter how long it takes to prove to you, because I’m willing to put in the work.”

She looks away from me, not answering to that raw and real answer, instead staring at where her fingertips glide against my skin.

“Can you hold me a little longer before we go inside?” she asks.

“For as long as you want,” I say, resting her head against my chest.

I knew an Omega was the missing piece and as I hold her against me I know without a doubt, she’s going to be ours.

CHAPTER 14

HAILEY

I don’t thinkI truly grasped what being courted as an Omega was like until today. Sterling’s words, Nate’s truths, and Hayes’ actions are all playing through my mind, and I have to almost convince myself that this is all real.

After the hot tub, I needed to shower to get the chemicals off me, but along with it, I’m also washing away Sterling’s scent. I can’t help the overwhelming feeling of loss as the water swirls down the drain and I’m not sure how to deal with it.

I’m around Alpha scents all the time at the club. I’ve gone through heat, but I’ve never felt this way. I’ve never felt like I needed to smell like an Alpha before. It’s kind of terrifying.

What if this all falls apart? What if I let myself fall harder and then they realize they don’t want me?
