The Wrong Alpha In My Bed

Short filmTranscript
00:00A bet. My fiancé Chase gambled me away to his twin brother, the Alpha of the North Pack.
00:06I pretended to know nothing and tangled with his brother all night.
00:09The next morning, I asked Chase to get me some medicine.
00:13Chase frowns, eyes on the fresh bite marks on my throat.
00:16Where does it hurt?
00:17Chase freezes. I step closer, wrap my arms around him.
00:21You were too wild last night, Chase. You broke me down completely. It hurt so bad.
00:26You were different last night. You were much bigger, much stronger. I loved the new you.
00:34Chase's face goes pale, utterly wrecked. Does he think I don't know?
00:3948 hours ago, I heard everything.
00:43I fold. I have no money left. Safran belongs to you tonight, brother.
00:48My heart stopped. Chase leaned back on the couch, a wicked smirk on his face.
00:52In the deepest shadow, sad Dominic. He swirled the ice in his glass.
00:56Are you sure she is your Omega?
00:59Who cares? She will never be my Luna.
01:03Besides, your rut is coming. You need a woman to soothe your wolf. Take her.
01:08Dominic didn't look at him. He raised his glass and drank slowly.
01:12Chase's fingers tapped the table.
01:15But she has been under my roof for a year. Do you mind a used Omega?
01:20Dominic suddenly stood up, buttoning his black suit jacket.
01:23No.
01:26I want her.
01:30I bit my lip hard, forcing myself not to gasp.
01:34I pressed into the shadows.
01:37Dominic walked out without a glance. Chase seemed to choke on his words.
01:40But soon, he smirked deviously again.
01:43Fine! Enjoy the night, brother.
01:46That Omega is incredibly soft.
01:48Dominic did not stop.
01:50His heavy footsteps completely vanished.
01:52A few other werewolf friends walked out.
01:55Chase, are you for real?
01:56You fought so many brutal fights to win that Omega back then.
02:00Now you throw her away in just one year?
02:02A bet is a bet.
02:04That is the PAC law.
02:06Besides, she is just an Omega.
02:08Just a pretty toy.
02:09He looked very irritated.
02:11His friends looked at each other.
02:15We thought she was special to you.
02:17She was proud at first.
02:19Hard to tame.
02:20But now, she obeys me like a good puppy.
02:24She is nothing.
02:28Hey Chase, let me have a turn next time?
02:32At those words, my mind went completely blank.
02:36Suddenly, Chase crushed the glass in his hand.
02:39His alpha power exploded.
02:41The air went heavy.
02:42The man turned pale.
02:43A second later, the friends looked at Chase's crushed glass.
02:47So, you do mind?
02:49What if Dominic marks her forever tonight?
02:52He won't.
02:53My brother is a god.
02:55He has clean habits.
02:57He never touches PAC girls.
02:58Maybe.
02:59But remember the first day you brought her back?
03:01Dominic couldn't take his eyes off her.
03:03He just hates cheap females.
03:05Don't worry.
03:06Saffron loves me to death.
03:07She would rather die than let another male touch her.
03:10Don't bet against me.
03:11You will lose everything.
03:14Chase returned to the VIP room.
03:16A beautiful female werewolf threw herself into his arms.
03:19He was drunk.
03:20He pinned her against the wall and kissed her roughly.
03:23I could not watch him.
03:26I ran back to the balcony and curled up on the outdoor sofa.
03:30My heart pounded wildly.
03:31I prayed that Dominic would just take it as a nasty joke.
03:35Before this, Chase had given me some wine and told me to sleep here.
03:39I had no tolerance for alcohol at all.
03:41That was why Chase spoke so freely without any worry.
03:43But tonight, a terrible nightmare woke me up early.
03:46I didn't want to be alone so I walked out to find him.
03:49And that was how I heard every single word.
03:51My one year of trust and devotion turned into a complete joke.
03:54I didn't cry or scream.
03:56These alphas ruled the city.
03:57To them, a weak Omega had no voice.
03:59If I fought, they could crush me like an ant.
04:02I hid under the heavy blanket, shivering, though my skin felt hot.
04:05Then, the door clicked open.
04:07Heavy, steady footsteps approached the bed.
04:09A new scent flooded my senses.
04:11It was a rich, expensive, dark pine scent.
04:14Cold and intoxicating.
04:16It was a stranger's scent.
04:17This was definitely not Chase's scent.
04:19I closed my eyes tight, my heart racing.
04:22The blanket was pulled away slowly.
04:24Strong, muscular arms lifted me up.
04:26He locked me against his hard, burning chest.
04:28His voice was deeper than Chase's.
04:30Saffron, sleep at home.
04:32I swallowed my fear.
04:33I could not show any flaw.
04:35I opened my eyes, looking sleepy and gentle.
04:38I wrapped my arms around his neck,
04:40nuzzling his warm throat like a submissive beast.
04:44Chase, why are you so late?
04:46I missed you.
04:47His body went completely stiff.
04:49His muscles tightened like rock.
04:52His grip almost crushed my waist.
04:54He spoke again.
04:55His voice was darker now.
04:56Did you wait long?
04:58Like a gathering storm.
04:59Yes.
05:01My head hurts.
05:02Hold me closer.
05:04Good girl.
05:05He walked out into the dim hallway.
05:08His steps were powerful and steady.
05:11I pressed my face against his chest,
05:13breathing in that addictive pine scent.
05:15It made my thighs go weak.
05:17I didn't scream.
05:19I wanted to survive.
05:21As a weak omega,
05:22I had no power to escape this pack.
05:24My only chance to get away from Chase
05:26was to cling to Dominic,
05:27the most powerful alpha.
05:29I had to make him protective of me.
05:31I didn't know if Dominic cared about me,
05:33but I remembered one year ago.
05:35On the day Chase brought me here,
05:37I accidentally stumbled and twisted my ankle.
05:40Dominic caught me.
05:41He didn't let go for a long time.
05:43He just stared into my eyes with a dark,
05:45unreadable look.
05:46I didn't know what that look meant,
05:48but tonight,
05:49I had to bet my life on it.
05:51I pretended that I was too drunk to recognize him.
05:54I pretended that I did not know
05:55the male using me right now
05:57was my fiancé's brother.
05:58Your scent is different tonight.
06:00It is intoxicating.
06:02Is it?
06:03His eyes burned like fire.
06:05Yes.
06:06It is stronger.
06:07It makes me...
06:09want you.
06:12Do you like it?
06:17I love it.
06:18He stopped in the pitch black hallway.
06:20Suddenly, he ducked his head.
06:21He bit my lip hard,
06:22tasting me with a dangerous, hungry passion.
06:25His dark alpha wolf surged,
06:27claiming me.
06:28The dangerous beast inside him
06:30flooded my senses.
06:31Good.
06:33You are my omega tonight.
06:36Dominic lifted me easily,
06:38cradling my body like a fragile treasure.
06:40He walked to the bedroom
06:41and laid me down on the soft sheets
06:43with unexpected gentleness.
06:45But the moment his hot body pressed down,
06:47his restraint snapped.
06:48He trapped me completely
06:49under his heavy shadow.
06:51My mind drifted into a blurry haze,
06:54automatically comparing him to Chase.
06:56Chase was always selfish,
06:57clumsy, and rushed.
06:59But Dominic...
07:00Dominic was a masterpiece
07:01of masculine perfection.
07:03He swept over me
07:03with a wild, overwhelming hunger.
07:05Yet there was not a single trace of harm.
07:08He was plundering my body,
07:09yet his large hands shielded me,
07:10treasuring me even in his maddening desire.
07:12I completely drowned in his feet.
07:15Do...
07:15Dom...
07:16His real name almost melted off my tongue.
07:18My heart gasped in sudden panic.
07:20No!
07:20I must not break my mass.
07:21I bit my swollen lip,
07:22forcing the forbidden name back into my throat.
07:24Chase!
07:25Ah!
07:26Chase!
07:26Dominic froze instantly.
07:28The air in the room
07:29turned suffocatingly heavy.
07:31Dominic's eyes changed completely,
07:33darkening into a pair of dangerous,
07:34possessive beast eyes.
07:37He stared straight down into my eyes,
07:39pinning me to the bed
07:39with his heavy gaze.
07:41Inside those glowing,
07:42dark gold depths,
07:43I saw his alpha wolf.
07:44The beast was fully awake,
07:46baring its teeth in silent,
07:47primal fury.
07:48It was ready to rip me apart
07:49for speaking another man's name.
07:50I lost the ability to think.
07:52I felt like a fragile little boat,
07:54floating helplessly on a thick,
07:55heavy wave of pleasure
07:56that was trying to drown me.
07:58At the same time,
07:59a pathetic thought hit my heart.
08:00My destiny was just like this boat.
08:02I had no control.
08:03I was just floating,
08:04waiting to be destroyed.
08:05I closed my eyes,
08:06waiting for his fury.
08:08He could choke me.
08:08He could crush my neck.
08:09For a powerful head alpha like him,
08:12killing a weak omega
08:12did not even require an explanation.
08:14But the deadly silence
08:15lasted for a few suffocating seconds.
08:18Dominic did not choke me.
08:19Slowly,
08:20the murderous dark gold
08:21in his eyes faded away,
08:22returning to a deep,
08:23unreadable dark.
08:24I didn't know what he was thinking,
08:25but I could feel his heavy muscles
08:27trembling with a massive effort
08:28to control his rage.
08:30He shifted his heavy body,
08:31slowly adjusting his position inside me.
08:33His large hands slid beneath my back,
08:35lifting me slightly
08:36to make me more comfortable.
08:37Then,
08:38he leaned down,
08:39brushing his lips against my ear.
08:40When he spoke,
08:41he artificially softened
08:42his deep,
08:43raspy voice,
08:44perfectly mimicking Chase's tone.
08:46Change how you call me,
08:47Saffron.
08:50I stammered,
08:51trying to keep my voice shaking
08:52like a frightened rabbit.
08:54Then,
08:54how do you want me to call you?
08:55And he asked against my ear,
08:57perfectly mimicking Chase's tone.
08:59Do you remember
08:59what you usually call me?
09:01I parted my lips slightly,
09:03my dazed eyes blinking
09:04as if trying to clear my foggy mind
09:06under his heavy shadow.
09:07My fingers curled weakly
09:09into the soft blanket.
09:10Your name?
09:11Chase.
09:13Hmm.
09:13And Master.
09:14His breathing changed instantly.
09:16It grew thick,
09:17heavy,
09:17and scorched with a hidden rage.
09:19The frozen kisses came down again,
09:21much heavier,
09:22bruising my lips.
09:24Call me Master tonight.
09:25I opened my eyes
09:26in fake surprise.
09:27Master?
09:28The next second,
09:29I was completely consumed
09:30by his burning kisses.
09:32He pressed me deep into the bed.
09:33The room was dark,
09:34lit only by a dim,
09:35warm nightlight.
09:36I raised my trembling hand
09:38to touch his face,
09:39still playing my part.
09:40He tilted his head slightly,
09:41letting my fingertips
09:42slide over his brow bone,
09:44his nose,
09:44and his sharp jawline.
09:46As my hand dropped,
09:47his robe fell away,
09:48tangling with my light pink nightgown
09:50on the sheets.
09:51He leaned down,
09:52his massive chest trapping me.
09:54One large,
09:54veiny hand gripped my waist tightly,
09:56his veins bulging
09:57with thick alpha desire.
09:59Saffron?
10:00I opened my blurry,
10:01tear-filled eyes.
10:02His Adam's apple bobbed heavily.
10:04Then he pushed down
10:05with an unyielding force.
10:06I let out a soft sob.
10:08Hot tears pooled in my eyes,
10:10but his burning lips
10:11kissed them away
10:11before they could fall.
10:12A deep, crushing thrust
10:14cut me off completely.
10:15What should you call me?
10:17Forgot?
10:18I looked at him
10:19with wronged, watery eyes.
10:21Master?
10:21I sobbed,
10:22my fingertips digging
10:23into the tight-
10:24The world spun.
10:26My long hair fell forward,
10:27brushing against his defined abs.
10:29He held my waist tightly from below,
10:31looking up at me.
10:32The dark gold in his eyes was burning,
10:34and Alpha's eyes change color
10:35when they are deeply aroused.
10:37I saw it clearly now.
10:38Those were not human eyes.
10:40It was a beast.
10:41His voice shook violently
10:43with a mix of deep pain
10:44and ultimate release.
10:46Saffron.
10:47His Adam's apple rolled.
10:49Don't stop.
10:50His expression looked like a demon
10:51suffering in hell,
10:53yet finding his heaven.
10:55Master.
10:56Again.
10:58Master.
10:59Please.
11:01Then,
11:01he pulled me down roughly,
11:03crushing me against
11:04his beating chest.
11:05That night,
11:06he gave me something
11:07Chase never could.
11:08It wasn't gentleness.
11:09It was a dark,
11:11overwhelming power
11:12that made my body
11:13completely betray my mind.
11:15In the heavy silence afterward,
11:16I closed my eyes
11:18and pretended to sleep.
11:19His heavy heartbeat
11:20pressed against my bare back,
11:22steady and terrifying.
11:24My mind was completely clear,
11:26with only one terrifying thought left.
11:28I must never let him know
11:30that I knew who he was
11:32from the very beginning.
11:34Dominic's large, heavy hand
11:36still rested on my waist,
11:37burning hot against my skin.
11:39That familiar,
11:40scorching temperature
11:40instantly pulled my thoughts backward,
11:42breaking through the darkness
11:43of the room.
11:44One year ago,
11:45on the day Chase brought me
11:46to the family pack,
11:47I first met Dominic.
11:48That day Chase was drunk.
11:50He pushed me hard
11:51to show off his power
11:52to other alphas.
11:52I lost my balance.
11:54I stumbled and twisted
11:55my ankle on the marble floor.
11:56I expected to hit the ground,
11:58but instead,
11:59a powerful gloved hand
12:00caught my waist securely.
12:02It was Dominic.
12:03He pulled me up,
12:04holding me steady.
12:05Then,
12:05he looked into my eyes
12:06with a dark,
12:07unreadable look.
12:07He didn't say any romantic words.
12:09He only spoke coldly.
12:10Saffron.
12:11A beautiful name.
12:13But what happened next
12:14made my heart race.
12:15Since you twisted your foot,
12:16drink this to apologize
12:18to the guests.
12:19I stared at the liquor,
12:20my hands trembling.
12:21As a weak Omega,
12:22I could not refuse.
12:23Before my fingers
12:24could touch the glass,
12:25Dominic suddenly reached out.
12:27He snatched the glass
12:28directly from Chase's hand.
12:29Dominic drank the burning spirit
12:30in one gulp.
12:31His Adam's apple
12:32bobbed ruthlessly.
12:34Chase frowned,
12:35looking shocked.
12:36Dominic shattered
12:37the empty glass on the table.
12:38Brother,
12:39what are you doing?
12:40The sharp sound
12:40made everyone in the room freeze.
12:42Dominic did not look at Chase.
12:44She is an Omega, Chase.
12:46You're Omega.
12:47If you can't protect her,
12:48don't bring her here
12:49to embarrass our family.
12:50Chase's face
12:51turned pale instantly.
12:53Under Dominic's powerful aura,
12:55he dared not say
12:56a single word.
12:57All evening,
12:58Dominic sat in the deepest shadow,
12:59never looking at me again.
13:01But because of his silent warning,
13:03no other Alpha dared to touch me
13:05or tease me that night.
13:07He didn't say he liked me.
13:08He defended me
13:09with his absolute silence.
13:11Back in the present,
13:12I look at the dark ceiling.
13:14Dominic's heavy heartbeat
13:15is still against my back.
13:16His large, calloused hand
13:18suddenly moves,
13:19tracing a slow,
13:20burning line down my spine,
13:22pulling my sweating body
13:23completely back
13:24into his solid chest.
13:25His breath,
13:26hot and heavy
13:27with the scent of dark pine,
13:29scatters across my bare shoulder.
13:31I don't know
13:32if he has feelings for me,
13:33but tonight,
13:34he is my only savior.
13:37Suddenly,
13:37Dominic shifts his weight.
13:38He hooks a finger
13:39under my chin,
13:40forcing me to turn around
13:41in his embrace
13:42until I am facing him completely.
13:44His other hand presses
13:45against the back of my head,
13:46burying my face deeply
13:47into the hollow
13:48of his burning neck.
13:49I am trapped in his arms,
13:50inhaled entirely
13:51by his overwhelming Alpha aura.
13:53He tightens his arms,
13:54locking me so fiercely
13:56against his chest
13:56that it almost hurts,
13:57as if he wants to rub
13:58my fragile body
13:59straight into his own
14:00flesh and blood.
14:01When he speaks,
14:02it still chases voice,
14:03but it drops into a dark,
14:05commanding whisper
14:05that shakes my soul.
14:07Saffron,
14:08you were so good tonight.
14:10I shiver in his arms,
14:11too scared to make a sound.
14:12I expect him to laugh
14:13at my weakness,
14:14or to treat me
14:15like a piece of garbage
14:16he just won in a bet,
14:17but he doesn't.
14:18His large, rough thumb
14:19slowly wipes away
14:20a cold tear from my cheek.
14:22His tone isn't teasing.
14:23It's dead serious,
14:24almost solemn.
14:25You've been playing
14:26the obedient little puppy
14:27for a whole year
14:28under my roof,
14:29haven't you?
14:30You bowed your head,
14:32you swallowed your pride,
14:33you let everyone
14:34think you were broken.
14:35My heart flinches.
14:36The raw wound of the past year
14:38is brutally ripped open
14:39in the dark.
14:39But last night,
14:41I felt it.
14:42When you were breaking down,
14:43your fingers were digging
14:44into my flesh so hard,
14:46trying to hold on to something.
14:48You weren't just
14:48enduring it, Saffron.
14:50You were surviving.
14:51His hand slides down,
14:53his palm resting
14:54against my racing heart,
14:55feeling its violent thumping.
14:56A truly broken Omega
14:58would have let go
14:58a long time ago,
14:59but your heart
15:01is still fighting.
15:02You have a fire
15:03hidden inside this
15:04fragile skin Saffron.
15:06It's the most
15:07resilience thing
15:07I've ever touched.
15:09My breath catches
15:10in my throat.
15:11Resilient.
15:12No one has ever
15:13used that word
15:14to describe me.
15:15In Chase's eyes,
15:16I was just
15:17hard to tame
15:18and proud at first,
15:20like a stubborn horse
15:21that needed to be
15:22whipped into submission.
15:23But the male
15:24holding me right now
15:25doesn't see a toy.
15:26He sees a survivor.
15:28His scent of dark pine
15:29surrounds me
15:30like an unbreakable shield.
15:31But his words
15:33remain ruthlessly realistic.
15:35But survival in the dark
15:36isn't enough anymore,
15:37Saffron.
15:37The sun is coming up.
15:39His grip on my waist
15:40tightens,
15:41grounding me,
15:42forcing me to listen
15:43to the brutal
15:43pack law.
15:44The alphas downstairs,
15:47including my friends,
15:48they don't see
15:49your resilience.
15:50They only see
15:51a weak Omega
15:52who has lost
15:53her protection.
15:54To them,
15:56you are a piece of meat
15:58left out in the open.
15:59A cold dread
16:00washes over me.
16:01As I remember
16:02the heavy alpha
16:03at the bar
16:03who licked his lips.
16:05If you walk out
16:05of this room tomorrow
16:06with your head bowed,
16:07looking for pity,
16:09they will smell your fear.
16:11And in a wolf pack,
16:12fear invitation
16:13is an invitation
16:14to be torn apart.
16:16I tremble violently
16:17against his chest.
16:18The reality is so heavy
16:20it makes me suffocate.
16:21I have nowhere to run.
16:22I am a weak Omega
16:23in a city ruled by beasts.
16:24So tell me,
16:25Saffron,
16:26what are you gonna do tomorrow?
16:27Cry?
16:28Hide?
16:29Let those bastards
16:30downstairs treat you
16:30like a broken toy?
16:32I tremble violently
16:32against his chest,
16:33my throat tight with despair.
16:35I have nowhere to run.
16:36He tightens his arm
16:37around my waist,
16:38his grip so strong
16:38it feels like
16:39an unbreakable shackle.
16:40Don't look down anymore.
16:42If anyone tries
16:43to touch you tomorrow,
16:45tell them you belong
16:46to this bed.
16:47Make them fear you.
16:48His words hit my heart
16:49like a blunt instrument.
16:51He isn't just asking me
16:52to be brave.
16:52As Chase,
16:53he is telling me
16:54to use last night's secret
16:55as a shield.
16:56But as Dominic,
16:56he is secretly giving me
16:57the right to use
16:58his absolute power.
16:59My hands stop trembling.
17:01Slowly,
17:01I raise my arms
17:02and wrap them around his neck,
17:03pressing my face
17:04into his pulsing throat.
17:05If I am destined
17:06to be a tool,
17:06I will cling
17:07to the most dangerous hand.
17:08I don't want to be
17:09a toy anymore.
17:10I want to stay
17:11with you, master.
17:13The next morning,
17:14the heavy scent
17:14of dark pine in the room
17:15has long vanished.
17:17Dominic is gone.
17:17My body is aching,
17:19covered in dark red bite marks
17:20that burn
17:21with last night's memory.
17:22I put on a light silk robe
17:24and walk out.
17:25Chase is sitting
17:25on the living room sofa.
17:27He hasn't slept all night.
17:28The moment he hears
17:29my footsteps,
17:29he jumps up,
17:30his eyes instantly
17:31locking onto my skin.
17:33Saffron,
17:33you,
17:34where were you last night?
17:35I look at his panicked,
17:36ugly face.
17:37My hands are not shaking.
17:39I remember the dark command
17:40from last night,
17:41make them fear you.
17:42I smile sweetly.
17:43You were too wild
17:44last night, Chase.
17:46You broke me down completely.
17:49It hurts so bad.
17:51Can you get me
17:52some intimacy medicine?
17:53His eyes wide with horror,
17:55marks that clearly
17:56do not belong to him.
17:58But you were different
17:58last night.
18:00You were much bigger,
18:01much stronger.
18:04Chase,
18:05you never made me
18:07feel that way before.
18:08I loved the new you.
18:10Chase's face
18:11twists completely.
18:12He looks pale,
18:13like he wants to vomit
18:14and kill someone
18:15at the same time.
18:16He is suffocating
18:17on his own medicine.
18:18He threw me away
18:19as a cheap toy.
18:20But now,
18:21his pride as an alpha
18:22is brutally crushed
18:23into the dirt.
18:25But the sweetness
18:26is too heavy
18:27for a weak Omega.
18:28The adrenaline
18:29suddenly fades
18:29and the lingering exhaustion
18:31from last night
18:31rushes back.
18:32My legs go completely weak.
18:34My vision blurs.
18:35I let go of Chase's neck,
18:36stumbling backward,
18:37trying to head toward
18:38the bathroom
18:38to hide my collapsing state.
18:40Saffron!
18:41You!
18:42Chase reaches out,
18:43his face full of rage
18:44and humiliation,
18:45looking like he wants
18:45to strangle me.
18:46My knees give out completely.
18:47I close my eyes,
18:49expecting to hit
18:49the hard marble floor.
18:50Instead,
18:51I fall into a solid,
18:52burning chest.
18:53A pair of strong,
18:54muscular arms
18:54catch me securely,
18:56locking me against
18:56his hard frame.
18:57The familiar,
18:58rich scent of dark pine
18:59floods my senses instantly,
19:00wrapping around me
19:01like an unbreakable shield.
19:03I open my blurry eyes
19:04and look up.
19:04Dominic is standing there,
19:06completely dressed
19:06in a pristine,
19:07intimidating black suit.
19:08His dark gold eyes
19:09look down at me,
19:10unreadable and deep.
19:11He doesn't look
19:12at his trembling brother.
19:13He only looks at me,
19:14his deep,
19:14raspy voice
19:15sending a shiver
19:16through my soul.
19:17Careful,
19:18Saffron.
19:20Chase looks at me,
19:21but the humiliation
19:22and jealousy
19:23in his eyes
19:23are driving him insane.
19:25He takes a desperate
19:25step forward.
19:26He doesn't even dare
19:27to touch Dominic's
19:28black suit,
19:29so he just glares at me,
19:31his fists
19:31glinting so hard.
19:32Saffron!
19:33Come here!
19:34We are going home!
19:35Right now!
19:36I don't move.
19:37I lean weakly
19:38against Dominic's
19:39burning chest.
19:40Dominic remains
19:41dead silent.
19:42He only lowers
19:43his head slightly,
19:44his dark gold eyes
19:45holding no emotion.
19:46Forced back
19:47half a step
19:47by Dominic's
19:48mere gaze,
19:49Chase swallows hard,
19:50his voice trembling
19:51with sheer panic
19:52as he looks at his brother.
19:53Brother,
19:54Dominic,
19:55the bet is over.
19:56It was just a joke
19:57last night, okay?
19:58Saffron is my Omega.
19:59She has been under
20:00my roof for a year.
20:01I'll give you compensation,
20:02whatever you want.
20:03The North Pack's
20:04newly opened territory,
20:05or my private
20:06hunting grounds.
20:07Just let me take
20:07her back now.
20:08Look at him.
20:09A year ago,
20:10he brought me here
20:10to show off.
20:11Last night,
20:12he tossed me away
20:13as a cheap gambling chip
20:14and now he is begging
20:15like a stray dog
20:16to buy me back.
20:18That taste of
20:18bleeding sweetness
20:19spreads even deeper
20:20across my tongue.
20:23Saffron,
20:23don't just stand there.
20:24Did you hear me?
20:25Get over here!
20:26Seeing that Dominic
20:27hasn't spoken,
20:28he glares at me,
20:28his voice cracking.
20:29Don't think
20:30you're supposed to...
20:31Just because he kept
20:32you for one night!
20:33My brother is a god.
20:34He has clean habits.
20:36He hates cheap,
20:37dirty females.
20:38He will throw you out
20:40like trash
20:40the moment the sun is up.
20:42The large hand
20:42on my waist
20:43tightens ruthlessly.
20:44Within seconds,
20:45werewolf friends,
20:46pack elders,
20:47and guards
20:47all gather in the hallway,
20:48their eyes wide
20:49with shock and panic
20:50at the sight of Chase
20:51kneeling in disgrace.
20:52Dominic slowly looks up,
20:53his dark gold eyes
20:54sweeping over the crowd.
20:56Hates cheap females?
20:57You are right, brother.
20:59That is why
20:59I am keeping Safra.
21:01Chase chokes on his own breath,
21:02looking up in horror.
21:03Last night took advantage
21:04of her vulnerability.
21:05Safra knew nothing.
21:06She was drunk,
21:07crying,
21:08and completely heartbroken.
21:09In the dark,
21:10she thought I was you,
21:11Chase.
21:11She called your name all night,
21:13begging her fiancé to protect her.
21:14Even when she was broken down,
21:15she remained pure
21:16and incredibly resilient.
21:18She didn't betray you.
21:19You betrayed her.
21:21The onlookers whisper in shock,
21:24looking at Chase
21:24with absolute disgust
21:26and ridicule.
21:26Chase's face twists
21:27into a mask
21:28of pure agony.
21:29He is completely destroyed,
21:31suffocating on his own medicine.
21:33Hearing Dominic lie
21:34to the entire pack,
21:35a wave of sharp panic
21:36and suffocating guilt
21:38flares up in my chest.
21:39My mind spins.
21:40No,
21:41he can't do this.
21:42If he publicly claims
21:43a used Omega
21:44just to save me,
21:45his pristine reputation
21:46will be ruined.
21:48The entire family
21:48will laugh at him behind his back
21:50for picking up
21:51his brother's discarded toy.
21:53He shouldn't stain
21:54his perfect hands
21:55for a worthless,
21:56weak Omega like me.
21:58I part my lips,
21:58desperately trying
21:59to look up at him,
22:00wanting to scream
22:01the truth to the crowd.
22:02I part my lips,
22:03desperately trying
22:04to look up at him
22:05to confess.
22:06Dominic,
22:07I knew it was-
22:08Before the truth
22:09can slip past my teeth,
22:10Dominic's movement
22:11is lightning fast.
22:12He doesn't let me
22:13speak a single word.
22:14His large,
22:15warm palm
22:16gently but firmly
22:17covers my mouth.
22:18Cutting off my breath.
22:20At the same time,
22:21his other arm
22:22tightens like iron
22:23around my waist,
22:24wrapping his heavy
22:25suit jacket
22:25completely around
22:26my trembling form.
22:28He looks down at me,
22:29his dark gold eyes
22:30flashing with a silent,
22:32without another word,
22:33he easily lifts me up
22:34into his arms,
22:36cradling me against him
22:37in front of the entire pack.
22:38He turns his back
22:39on his broken brother,
22:41taking me up the stairs
22:42toward his private floor.
22:43Clear the hallway.
22:44Anyone who dares
22:45to disturb her rest
22:46will answer to my wolf.
22:50The heavy oak doors
22:51of Dominic's
22:51private suite
22:52click shut.
22:53He carries me over
22:54to a massive,
22:55plush sofa
22:55lined with dark fur.
22:57His movements
22:57are impossibly gentle
22:58as he sets me down,
23:00grounding my trembling frame.
23:01I look up,
23:02my chest still heaving
23:03with leftover panic.
23:04My lips parted to speak,
23:06but Dominic simply rests
23:07a warm thumb
23:08against my chin.
23:09Don't think about
23:10anything out there,
23:11Safri.
23:12Rest.
23:13You are safe
23:14on this floor.
23:15You haven't eaten
23:16anything since yesterday.
23:17Stay here.
23:18I will bring you
23:19something warm
23:20and the medicine.
23:23And I'm sorry
23:24about last night.
23:26I was a bit
23:27too rough on you.
23:28My heart skips a beat.
23:30Panic and worry
23:31instantly flare up.
23:32I don't want him
23:33to feel even a shred
23:33of guilt for saving me.
23:34No, Dominic.
23:36No, you don't need
23:38to apologize.
23:39Really, I'm fine.
23:40I don't need the medicine.
23:41But before I can finish
23:42my panicked words,
23:43Dominic suddenly reaches out.
23:45His massive, warm palm
23:47gently presses
23:48onto the top of my head.
23:50His touch so incredibly
23:51soft and grounding
23:52that it instantly melts
23:53all the anxiety inside me.
23:55It is a gesture
23:55of absolute reassurance.
23:57He doesn't say another word.
23:58He gives my head
23:59one last gentle pat,
24:00pulls his hand back,
24:01and turns to walk
24:02toward the private kitchen.
24:03Watching his broad,
24:04imposing back
24:05disappear down the corridor,
24:07tears finally blur my vision.
24:08Safe.
24:09He said I am safe.
24:10The phantom sensation
24:12of last night's
24:12intense pleasure,
24:13mixed with the sweat
24:14of my feverish panic,
24:15makes my silk robe
24:16feel like it's suffocating me.
24:17I need to wash it all away.
24:18I need to clear my mind.
24:20Stumbling slightly
24:21on my still aching legs,
24:22I push myself up
24:23from the sofa
24:23and make my way
24:24into his master bathroom.
24:25I let my soiled robe
24:26fall to the floor.
24:27Stepping into the
24:28massive glass shower,
24:29I turn the handle.
24:30As the heat hits my skin,
24:31a soft gasp
24:32escapes my throat.
24:33My body is a roadmap
24:34of his possessive desire.
24:35Deep, dark red bite marks
24:37on my collarbone,
24:38but no matter how hard
24:39the water pours,
24:40it cannot wash away
24:41the steady, terrifying rhythm
24:42of Dominic's heartbeat
24:43that still echoes
24:44in my ears.
