Alve Sato runs the Omega Housing Initiative in Las Vegas. While he is an alpha, he has omega VPs and a team of omega consultants.

Let me know if I should reach out to arrange a meeting.

-Best, Autumn

I read over the information she provided. The OHI was very similar to my own business. The Swedish/Japanese CEO was the child of two immigrants, and he had begun the company about a decade ago.

Autumn,

Please arrange a meeting. Any day but the 23rd.

-Beau

Regardless of whether I pursued expansion, it was in Charlotte’s best interest more affordable omega housing came into existence in her chosen city. A lot of cities were slow to adopt our philosophy, but it was catching on.

I hopped on a morning call with my team to check in on everything before I’d have to transition to speaking with stakeholders. Ollie emerged a few minutes after the meeting started, padding over to me with his bed head and rumpled pajamas.

“One moment, please.” I muted myself and covered the camera before turning to him. “You’re up early.”

“I heard you talking.”

“I’m sorry I woke you. I’m just having a meeting with my team in New York.”

He peered at the screen, where they all sat in a checkerboard. “Can I say hi?”

What harm could it do? “Sure, but you have to promise to be quiet after that or I’ll have to send you back to your room.”

Ollie mimed zipping his lips before grinning at me.

I turned the camera and mic back on. “Ladies, apologies for the interruption, but I have a visitor.”

Ollie climbed onto my lap, waving excitedly at the screen.

I couldn’t help taking a screenshot of their surprised faces.

“Who is everyone?” Ollie asked.

“These are my executive team: Sienna, Chelsi, and Caroline. And this one right here—” I tapped the screen. “—is my executive assistant, Autumn. Ladies, this is Oliver.”

Sienna tilted her head in question. “Whose child is this?”

Unsure how much to say in front of Ollie, I was relieved when Autumn came to my rescue. “I’ll send everyone an explanation.”

“A sparsely detailed one,” I added.

“Can I stay for the meeting?” Ollie asked. “I can be businessy.”

“Does anyone mind if he stays?”

Not a single one of them opposed, and Ollie parked himself on my lap while we finished up. It gave me some rather aggressive flashbacks to when Bryce was little and I had done this a thousand times, working to get my company off the ground without sacrificing time with him.

Ollie was blessedly quiet, soaking everything in before falling asleep against me. When the meeting finished, Autumn stayed on, her smile mischievous. “I see Las Vegas is treating you well.”

“No need to gloat.”

She did anyway. “I told you things would work out. It didn’t take you long to cave and cancel the rental I got for you.”

“It didn’t make sense to be there instead of here.”
