Page 40 of Shattered Omega

I nodded, wishing I could tell her more, but I didn’t want to put my pack or Roxy in danger, and what was between the Lincoln pack and mine was far beyond school gossip.

“No omega will go near Jasmine, if that makes you feel better.”

I hugged my pillow closer to my chest, fighting a small smile. “It does.”

Those photos she’d dropped on my desk still haunted me, turning my stomach at the thought of them. “A bit.” Maybe more than a bit.

I wouldn’t be able to attend Omega Studies since Mord was here, though Roxy was joining me in the shared Arkology classes we had together, and we spent some evenings studying too. Which this was supposed to be, but Omega Studies was also… school, right? So, watching the movie was like homework.

Though, if I was being honest, I was starting to realise my interest in Omega Studies had been much more about the fascination of being around other omegas. The curriculum itself didn’t seem all that solid.

“Plus, she’s in for a shock,” Roxy added.

“What do you mean?”

“Honestly?” A cheeky smile played on Roxy’s face. “Worst sex of my life with that pack. Eric tried to gaslight me into thinking he’s a good fuck without actually making an effort.”

There was a strange silence between us before I found the courage to ask. “But uh… he wasn’t?”

Roxy grinned. “God no. Gareth’s a minute man and Flynn’s awkward as shit in bed—and not in a cute way.”

I giggled.

“They’re terrible fucks and their scents are lame as fuck.”

I grinned, attention turning to the TV with a warm feeling in my chest as she pressed play.

“Okay, so…” I considered the movie we’d just watched as the credits rolled.

It was the third one of the night, and it was getting late. “I wanna make sure I’m not missing something…” I looked down at my list. “It looks like I’m sorted for a lot of the stuff I wrote down already…” I’d been taking notes on all the things that had been established in the pack movies when it came to seduction and rounded it up to a few key things.

Things that make seduction easier:

Alphas are really into the omegas — scent match is best

Alphas have given gifts like nests or other things

Alphas show desire to protect omega

Alphas want a bond

I looked at the last part. “So… if I have all of this stuff, all I have to do next is… take off my clothes?”
