Page 24 of Such a Delicious Omega

“None of that, omega. And there’s not going to be any spanking. I have a surprise.”

I devoured my snack while he showed me what he’d purchased. “That’s going to show my whole belly, Sam,” I protested. “I’m not feeling so beautiful right now if you haven’t noticed.”

“But you are.”

“It will ride up. No way that shirt is covering this belly.”

“You’re hurting my feelings, mate. I bought this for you.” Complete with a pouty bottom lip.

“Oh, that was low,” I laughed.

“I know. I’m sorry not sorry. Come on. I’ll help you get dressed.”

Not long later, since Samuel was helping me, we made our way out and to the club. It was during the day, so I wasn’t sure what the surprise was, but my tummy fluttered with nerves about it.

“This way,” Samuel said, and I knew from being here enough that he was leading me to the meeting room. If this alpha, no matter how much I loved him, brought me here for a meeting, there would be trouble.

Not really, but my hormones were making me feel tough.

When we walked into the room, it was dark until Samuel flipped the lights on and I heard, “Surprise!”

I stepped back, hand on my heart, and gasped.

A surprise shower.

That was what he had been doing all day.

All the owners and their omegas were there. Even some of my friends, including Zack and Kendall.

“Samuel wanted you to have a shower. We have one for all the omegas,” Talon said.

“Thank you so much,” I said. It certainly was a surprise. Samuel and I had bought everything we needed for the baby, but our friends loaded us up with things I hadn’t even thought of. A chest-feeding pillow. Gadgets that they swore by.

Even some things for after the birth for me to be more comfortable.

They’d thought of everything and more.

“This is why I kept your snack small,” Samuel chuckled and wrapped me up in a hug while the cake was being cut. We hadn’t found out the sex of the baby. Another surprise for us. We’d decorated the nursery in neutral tones so we could reuse everything for the second baby.

Yeah, my alpha was already planning on another one.

I told him, I would decide on that after this one came out.

“Thank you for doing this. We love you, don’t we?” I rubbed my belly.

“I can’t wait to hold him or her. I know we have a while yet, but they are going to be beautiful, just like their papa.”

Ah, this man never failed to make me blush.

He thanked everyone for coming, and they helped us put the gifts into the car.

Kendall was the last one to leave. He came over and gave me a big hug.

“I know you still hold guilt over what happened, but there’s no need to. Really. I have long ago forgiven you, but you have to forgive yourself.”

“I’m trying. I really am. I’m so happy for you. If I ended up with someone like you, mate, well, maybe I need to create a bucket list of my own.”

“You should. Life is too damned short for waiting. We both know that.”
