Page 13 of Brandy Snap: Part One

His hawkish nose and intense expression had me quivering under him as his lips stretched back over his teeth and he growled.

I was too hot. I couldn’t speak. The only noise I could make was a shaky gasp as he brought himself closer.

Caspian didn’t let me go, his other hand gripping my shoulder to pin me there.

All I had to do was pull away and get through the door, and no one would guess what had happened. If they reported me, I could just say it was a screw-up with the rooms. A simple mistake that I would apologise for, and we’d all move on with our lives. I’d keep my job, Mum would be looked after, and nothing would change.

“Say that again.” His voice snapped through me. “And fucking mean it.”

“L-let…” I trailed off at the size of him, feeling like I’d been captured by a monster. “Let me go,” I rasped.

His only reply was a laugh.

It was no use. He was too strong, and I couldn’t resist. I was never going to get away.

I started as I met his eyes, shocked by the pulsing shards of red that sliced through his green irises. I had never seen anything like it before, and the heat that flared in me at his intense gaze wiped away all of my fear.

“And who are you to tell me to let go?” he asked, his tone like liquid pleasure. Anger blazed off of him as his gaze explored my face. I’d never had an alpha throw his energy at me, but I knew how wet it made me with one shift of my thighs.

My stuttered breath brushed over his lips as he drew closer.

“What are you doing?” I whispered.

His fingers dug into the soft flesh of my upper arm, and another wave of desire flared through me and that scent surrounded us.

“Brandy,” he growled, pulling me to him, dipping his head in the crook of my neck before taking another drag. The heady caramel that wafted from his sweat-soaked skin made me bend into him with a sigh of relief.

There was a boom of energy around me, and I shuddered against him as I instantly moaned. The air suddenly vibrated, singing through my body, my boiling blood soaring as I felt an aura for the first time in my life.

All alphas and omegas have an aura. I’d read it was like a force field or a ball of energy that constantly surrounded them. But betas couldn’t sense it. We didn’t have auras, or any way to defend or protect ourselves. I shouldn’t be able to feel the hot pressure that squeezed every inch of me.

With the mix of his furious energy and his rich, sticky scent, I was putty in his arms.

“You smell fucking divine. What the fuck is wrong with you?” he asked.

His aura beat into me, a steady pulse waking up my passion and demanding I stay with him.

As soon as he ran his nose up the crook of my neck, I belonged to him. I couldn’t even stop to think about it, I just knew that I was his. A growl rumbled from me as more heat burst, blurring my mind.

Shock whipped through me, my eyes widening as my pussy throbbed, and the thick scent swirled around us.

Betas didn’t growl. Betas didn’t go into heat, or sense auras, or even scent other people.

And betas never perfumed.

I shoved his chest. I didn’t want him to stop, but I needed to leave. I’d barely been inside the room for five minutes, but it was like they had stolen my mind and replaced it with desire.

“I said let me go.” I tried to back away from him, but his scent and aura were scrambling my brain, driving me haywire.

I struggled against him, but it only trapped me in his arms even more, pressing me to his chest. Another breath and I trembled as smooth caramel oozed in my lungs. The corner of his mouth hitched as he glared down at me, and another flash of heat took me.

He pushed me, his strength overpowering as my back slammed against the door and he trapped me with his hands, his thick arms taut by my cheeks, forcing me to meet his gaze.

“It’s too late now, omega.” His laugh tremored through me, my aching nipples squashed against the cups of my bra as I writhed. My hips moved back, opening up, longing for his solid cock to fill me.

His eyes flicked to my throat, and he licked his lips.

“You shouldn’t be here,” he said. My back arched as I took him in, still aware of the omega being fucked on the bed beside us.
