I get up, and he looks at me in stunned silence.

Holding out my hand, I give him a wry smile.

“Omegas don’t let fate run away from them. Come help me chase him down.”

Chapter Sixty-One

Dale

The split second I say yes to Zoey’s crazy idea to go speak to Cam, I start to catastrophize about his reaction. He’s not going to stay. He hates Zane, and he rushed away from me when I perfumed.

I let go of her hand on the stairs.

She looks back at me with concern in her gaze. “Dale …”

I shake my head. “He won’t stay. I know he won’t.”

I can’t ask him. He’s never said no to me. Hearing him say it now …

I already know it’s over. I don’t need to punish myself for that any longer.

“I can’t do it,” I tell her, taking the final few steps to the lobby.

She darts after me, and I crash into a wall of muscle as I turn my head to glance back at her.

Russ. His hands stroke my forearms as I look up.

“Hey, are you okay?” he asks.

I forget everything I was thinking about while I’m looking up into his concerned eyes, feeling his soothing touches. I know I’m perfuming before the scent washes over him.

He breathes in and moans, and I’m close enough to feel it when his cock twitches to life in his pants.

We’re supposed to be mated. He’s mine as much as he’s Zoey’s.

I can feel my slick coming in, and I know I need to get away from him before I do something one or both of us might regret later.

I step back and move around him.

“Dale, would you please wait?” Zoey calls after me.

“I’m making lunch,” I call back. “You two can do what you want!”

All I know is, I need to get away from them both.

I head to the kitchen, hoping the distraction will fix me.

Chapter Sixty-Two

Russ

The first time I was ever attracted to a guy was the day I met Archer. I’d had no idea it was something I had in me before then. I’d only ever dated women, but the day we met, I realized I wanted him as more than an Alpha and a pack brother. He didn’t seem to feel the same way, so I didn’t push the idea. I was content enough to view it as a simple one-sided attraction.

The spark I feel when Dale bumps into me is something more than that.

He looks up at me with such desperate hunger that I can barely think straight.

All I want to do is pull him in close and feed that hunger until he’s sated.
