“Teddy, get on the bench!” he roared. “And you can stayoutof this game until you get your head on straight.”
I felt my shoulders drop as I slunk back to the bench.
My eyes were swimming as I grabbed a tablet and pretended to look at the play by play.
My skin seemed to be on fire, and I wanted to fucking itch myself all over as my wolf pelt shredded off my skin, then back on again.
The crowd was booing.
I hadn't heard a single damn boo for my playingever.
Not since I began playing football in middle school, and it had been nothing but an unending wave of adulation ever since.
As I sat miserably on the bench, the hopes of getting Piper’s pheromones craving me dashed, the game wound its miserable way to a conclusion.
Capitol Lupines lost 30-3.
On my way off the field, Zoey and Chloe hopped in front of me, their pom-poms waving in the air, smiles still pasted on their faces despite our grueling loss.
“Hi Teddy, want to come play with us later?”
I recoiled.
Hell no.
It was the strangest sensation, looking at them and having zero interest in fucking them, but even the thought of it made me nauseated.
What had I been doing before?
Had I avoided meaningful relationships because I was waiting for my Omega?
Or was I just a shallow player?
I wanted to be sure I said this in front of Piper, so I walked rapidly to where she was still standing, unconcerned as fuck, at the partition.
“Don't contact me again, please. I'm blocking both your numbers.”
They opened their mouths to object but I heard Rook’s hiss of displeasure, and they both shut their mouths and scuttled off.
Oh, God, would this convince Piper at all?
She was so stone faced.
Like she didn't believe me at all, and I felt panic wash over me,
“I mean it,” I croaked. “I promise I’ll always be faithful.”
Piper only tossed her head.
“Bold words from a man with his dick taped to his legs.”
For a meathead like me who wasn’t all that quick-witted, she was irresistible. I wanted to lie on the couch with her and put my head in the crook of her neck so she could roast me all day.
I just wish my dick wouldn't be so damn embarrassing, so she could see how much I was into her personality, too.
