My life.

It was all gone.

“I will provide for you the way I see fit and you are going to like it. We are going to get out of here and you will never even think of that stupid, pathetic life you thought you could ever have without me.”

Benjamin shoved me towards the bed.

I blinked. I blinked again. What was happening? What was happening? I was yanked along in a state of unawareness. Lucas was right there a minute ago. He was rushing towards me outside the academy. He was in my arms.

He bled out in my arms and… and I…

I couldn’t go into heat right now. I couldn’t.

Though clearly, it was already too late.

“You are nothing but a stupid omega. Act like it and stop fighting!” Benjamin barked at me. “Present for your alpha.”

My body fought against the order, but ultimately relented, shaking from the fear and upset raging through my body. I couldn’t speak or care about anything anymore. They all had left me.

Every one.

Loud voices called out in the house. Benjamin growled looking over his shoulder. “I’ll be back.”

Benjamin left, barking at me to stay put.

I rolled this way and that, trying to abate the pain and need brewing inside of me. Lucas was gone. Everyone was gone.

I knew that maybe if I could break the order of the bark, I could run. I could get out of here. But I couldn’t move. I couldn’t find the will to or the strength.

I was nothing but an omega.

I sobbed.

I was-

Citrus wrapped around me and I groaned.

“Sh sh sh,” a voice murmured. “I got you.”

Marko?

I groaned, unable to do anything else.

“I’m here for you. Don’t worry about anything now, darling,” said Marko. “You’re safe.”

We barely got a few steps outside the bedroom towards the back kitchen door before a shot rang out.

And Marko dropped me with a grunt to the tile floor as he fell to the side.

I screamed.

It was like watching Lucas all over again.

No no no.This couldn’t be happening.

What was happening? Was this a dream? Was this the heat? I couldn’t tell, but if it was, I hoped that maybe it would be too much for my body. Maybe suppressing it for so long would kill me.

Maybe it should.
