Savannah gives me a look. A look far too wise for her age. I’ve spent so long trying to make sure my younger siblings get a normal childhood where they don’t have to worry about the shit that I have to worry about, but I guess I’m not doing a good enough job.

“Fine,” I sigh. “But I’m getting you that test prep book I know you’ve been eyeing. I can buy it new, too, so you don’t have to spend hours erasing someone else’s answers.”

“What? Really? But that thing is fifty bucks, new!”

“I made good money last night. I’ll order it online later today when the wifi is back up, how about that?”

“Thank you! Oh my god, I’ve seriously wanted it, it has sixteen practice tests!”

“Nerd,” I cough into my food, shooting my sister a wink.

“Shut up,” Savannah rolls her eyes.

After we finish breakfast, I’m sitting on the floor in the living room with my brother staring at the wifi router.

“Do you have any idea what’s going on?” I mutter

“Nope,” he shrugs. “But I’m twelve. You’re the adult, isn’t that your job to know?”

“Believe it or not, I don’t know everything. I just pay for this shit. You’d think with the amount of money I spend a month, it wouldn’t just break like this.”

“Can you ask anyone?”

That’s a better question than his last one, but the answer is I don’t know anyone. I don’t talk to very many people other than my family.

“I’ll figure it out,” I sigh. “You should work on your homework first though, the stuff you can do without the wifi.That way when it comes back on you can just play those games you want.”

He pouts a bit, but luckily, he listens to me. I’m not in the mood for a homework fight right now.

“Alright, thanks, Rey,” Eli says.

“You’re welcome, kiddo.”

I pull out my phone and go to an online forum, taking a quick picture of the router and making a post.

My wifi is broken and idk what’s going on??

Hopefully, someone answers.

CHAPTER 8

Milo

Anotification pops up on my computer.

I click on it and see Reyna’s made a post on an online forum.

My wifi is broken and idk what’s going on??

Some may call it creepy that I’m monitoring pretty much all of her online activity, and they’d probably be right. But my metrics of creepiness go out the window when this mystery omega seems to have ensnared two of my other packmates.

Stone’s practically buzzing every single time he comes back from The Warehouse because it’s his chance to see her. Theo was giddy when he came back to the pack house this morning.

I’m not a normal alpha. I’m a wimp. I’ve always had to have the others fight my battles for me because I can’t fight for shit. The only way I know how to do anything for my pack is by sitting behind a computer screen.

If this omega shows any signs of leading my pack down a dangerous path, I want to know. At least that way, I can tell Killian, who seems to be the only one with his head still screwed on straight, and he can smack some sense into Stone and Theo.

I click on her post, just to make sure there’s nothing strange with it. I start tapping my foot. Who am I kidding? It’s because I’m curious to learn everything I can about this omega.
