Page 454 of Omega for the Pack

They released me, and Jordan removed his fingers from me, licking his fingers slowly.

“She came,” said the alpha behind me.

“I’ve always wanted to taste you,” Jordan said. Anger and shock rolled through me as I lay shaking on my back while the alphas stroked my body. I closed my eyes, wishing for this nightmare to end. “We’ll allow you to rest for a bit, then we’ll do it again, Pinkie. You did such a good job, just don’t fight Brett and I. It’ll be even more fun that way.”

Fuck my life.

“I need to use the bathroom,” I said, getting off the bed. Upon closing the door behind me, which didn’t have a lock- I collapsed on the floor, holding my face between my hands as I cried. I cried for giving in to Jordan’s touch. Tears drenched my hands as I sat there broken. He completely ruined my life, and I had never felt so dejected as I did now. It was miserable, and I felt sick to my stomach.

I needed to escape. I started to feel sad for Olivia and all the other omegas who didn’t want to be here.

“Pinkie?” asked Jordan when he opened the door, seeing me crying on the floor.

I removed my hands from my face and looked up at him through my tears.

“You’re a monster. A horrible monster,” I shouted.

He swallowed as he took in the sight of my miserable self sitting on the floor of this cold bathroom.

“Most omegas need time to adjust,” he said without emotion. “Perfectly normal.”

“I will always hate you,” I said. “No matter what happens. Even if I have your baby, I will despise you until the day I die.”

He looked taken aback, blinking twice. “I’ll give you some time to process, and then we’ll continue. You will beg for my knot before your heat even begins. I’d like to see you back in bed in five minutes - no excuses.”

He slammed the door shut, and I shuddered. I’ve made him angry, but I didn’t care. I didn’t have anything to lose now. Getting up from the floor on weak, shaking legs, I washed my face and dried myself with the towel. I stared into the mirror. My eyes had dark bags under them, and my hair was messy. A far cry from when I was confident and happy in my life, ready to sing for whoever would listen.

I remembered my mother and her struggles when she had Gabe taken away from her. She had been sold at an auction after they took her baby, going through much worse than I did. And I could hear her voice clear as day in my head to get through this until I could escape.

Be strong, Lacy.

So I gritted my teeth and walked back into the dark bedroom.

“Ireally think we should check on Lacy,” said Adrian as he paced around the field. My pack had become despondent, and I started feeling gloomy since we left Lacy. We’d get over her after a few days, but that wasn’t the case. I wiped the sweat from my forehead with a handkerchief.

Every day, I felt the emptiness of her presence. At night, when I imagined another male approaching her- I’d feel sick to my stomach. But she didn’t want me, not after my punishment of her.

“Your stubbornness and her anger issues clash. Like two magnets repelling each other,” said Cooper as he put on his earmuffs before shooting the target at the end of the field.

“But he cansimplyapologize,” said Ethan gruffly. “Now we’re waiting around for another guard duty job, wasting our time when we could be hunting the stalker.”

“She’s not our problem anymore,” I said, trying to end this unending conversation we always seem to fall into during training. The day we left Lacy’s house, my boss scolded me for my stubbornness and the harsh discipline of a fun-loving omega.

Yes, maybe I shouldn’t have put my hands on her.

“Does it hurt to check on her, though?” said Adrian, not letting this go, and I sighed. Some part of my soul wanted to get a glimpse of her again, even though she screamed at me furiously.

“It doesn’t hurt,” I said, rubbing my hand over my head.

“Fuck yes,” said Lucas, smiling. To get a reaction out of Lucas was a big thing, and we all smiled as we looked over at him lifting weights on a bench.

“I’m guessing we’re all in agreement then?”

“Let’s fucking go already,” said Ethan, and every man dropped what they were holding.
