At the sound of that, my heart sank deeper in my chest as I filled with anguish… I didn’t want this. I didn’t want to be with Bryan! I wanted him as far from me as possible. I’d yanked myself free from Zoey’s embrace before storming off to Bryan’s office.
I’d ignored the courtesy of knocking, storming right in before standing before his desk, arms crossed over my chest, a frown marring my facial features.
“Are you bloody insane? I’m not leaving for the Fierce Claw Pack with you! If you want an entourage, find someone else. So go back out there, and make another choice… not me!” I retorted, fuming angrily now. I was pissed. How dare he? He’d chosen to mate with my sister right after breaking my heart two years ago, and now he wanted me stuck with him?
“No,” he responded curtly, glancing at me with a bored expression. He wanted to get under my skin. And yes… he’s done just that already.
“What do you mean no? What’s that supposed to mean? I’m not going and you can’t make me,” I blurted out again, only that this time he snorted with a low and dark laughter.
“You either leave with me, or you lose your job. It’s that simple. And I’m guessing whoever the old omega is that you are worried too, can’t fully foot your mother’s entire expenses… Fine, the wedding must have given you the insurance… given you access to the pack’s medical offers, but when she’s out of the hospital… you want to be jobless as well?” Bryan asked with a gloat of pride.
I could have laughed in his face, told him I didn’t need the job, told him I was mated to just anyone but Alpha Ryan… could have told him my mate was the first heir, the true blood of the Hamiltons, but I didn’t. Because he was right. Alpha Ryan and I had just begun to get closer. I wouldn’t want him seeing me as a greedy person who only wanted to leech off him if I dropped my job suddenly.
“See… I knew we’d come around to a well-mannered agreement. Now don’t we?” Bryan asked, reaching his hand to stroke my cheek. I slapped it away, a low snarl easing off my lips as I bared my fangs at him.
“Oh, Scarlett… always so feisty. Don’t forget I’m your boss… you will respect me,” he warned sternly, his eyes darkening as he spoke. I retracted my fangs, holding in the feral and menacing growl bubbling in my chest while moving away slowly from him.
“Good, now you’ll wait for me. We leave in ten minutes,” he spoke in a dismissive tone causing my gaze to widen.
“Ten minutes? I can’t… I was only informed just now, I…”
“Oh please, Scarlett. I’m sure that old geezer of yours can survive without you for a week or two. And remember, the fate of your job lies on this.” Bryan ordered again, shoving me off with a shake and a wave.
Hastily, I reached for my phone, storming out of his office to call Alpha Ryan, to inform him of the sudden change in plans. I’d called once… twice… then seven whole times… but nothing. I couldn’t reach him.
Groaning from frustration, I’d sent him a text when a hand had reached for my waist, wrapped tightly and tugging me closer, earning a loud gasp from me.
“Get away from me, Bryan!” I seethed, jumping backward to put enough space between us.
“You wish… anyway, let’s go, Scarlett. After all, we both would be stuck together for a while.”
Scarlett’S POV
The journey from the New Stone Pack to the Fierce Claw Pack was nothing short of torture and anguish. Bryan had made certain to torment me at every given chance with snarky retorts, making me red from fury.
He’d once yelled it out that I was sleeping with old alphas for money, then claimed I was married to an older omega to leech off him. He’d called me every sort of name in the book, making me understand why he brought me along on the trip. It was none other than to remind me of my place and taunt me in exchange for what he believed had happened two years ago between us.
“We are heading to the pack mansion prepared for you, and right after then, we meet with Mister Hans. He’s one of the most prominent gammas of the pack… or perhaps we should meet him first. After all, you always hate long trips and stuffy clothes. How about we meet him first, then you get to shower hours later?” Bryan asked with a cunning smile before tilting his head sideways.
My belly lurched, but my lips were sealed shut. I’d ignored the fact that he wanted more torture passed at me. The drive towards Gamma Hans’ house was slow and filled with tension, but thankfully, nothing else slipped through Bryan’s cruel lips.
Alighting from the car, the guards escorted us toward the main house when the door pushed open.
“Bryan! You made it!” Gamma Hans greeted with a wide smile as both men pulled into a friendly hug and patted each other’s shoulders. Just in time, his eyes glided down to mine, and for a moment, I could see the excitement in them as he dragged his gaze from my feet toward my hair, his eyes stopping in a few places he’d probably pictured me naked.
“You hadn’t informed me a beautiful wolf would be accompanying you,” he spoke, reaching for my hands and placing kisses on them before kissing my cheeks as well, causing me to reel from irritation.
“Didn’t I? Must’ve slipped my mind. Seems like you’re interested in her,” Bryan blurted out, each bit of his words dripping with mockery. My heart sank, my fists twisted at the mention of those words. We locked gazes briefly, then he rolled his eyes before staring down at Gamma Hans.
“Of course not, I’d hate to steal away what’s yours…”
A dark bark of laughter coursed through Bryan’s lips on hearing Gamma Hans’ words.
“What’s mine? And why would I want her? I asked you to have her if you want. She’s used to things like this and she has a rare taste for older men. I promise you, she’ll be just like you want,” Bryan added again.
Veins popped out from my clenched fists, my teeth gritted.
I’d kept silent for the sake of my mother, but he had no reason to treat me like this. He didn’t care, and made me go through a useless phase of weakness and pain like this. Offering me off like I was cheap garbage?
“Hmmm,” Gamma Hans hummed. His eyes roped to my breasts and I watched as he ran his tongue over his lower lips greedily before nodding again.
“Shall we proceed with the meeting?” I asked. My breath was low and husky as I spoke. Both men nodded again before turning toward an office in Gamma Hans’ home.
The rest of the meeting passed in a blur. I’d gotten more perverted glances from Gamma Hans. It made me sick.
He was way older-older than my father by years, not to speak of me. He’d winked, let his hands brush across my thighs, made sexual jokes toward me, and it kept getting worse… and Bryan? Bryan had allowed it. Didn’t even move a muscle through it all.
Making me question the man I’d fallen in love with.
Have I ever known him? Had this been his usual attitude? Was he this bitter? So bitter that he would let some old gamma assail me?
“I’ll go off to the bathroom now,” I spoke hastily, darting to my feet as the meeting was briefed out and concluded. I knew lingering and waiting for them to be done with their exchange of pleasantries would only make the situation more miserable for me.
I wandered around the halls until I’d gotten to a narrow corridor, pushing the door to the bathroom open. I screamed from frustration, splashing my face with water… anger recoiled in me in waves. I hated this situation I’d been put in, and I needed to do something about Bryan. I couldn’t keep working with him if it meant all hell would be let loose every bloody time.
The door screeched open and Gamma Hans walked in with a foolish grin on his lips as his eyes glued back to my boobs and then down to the shape of my ass.
“You’ve got a great body… a most peculiar taste according to Bryan. So why don’t we make this quick?” Gamma Hans asked, pulling closer to me. I froze internally, watching him. Every muscle in me went numb, fear coursed through my veins as my heart hammered faster in my chest. I knew this feeling. I hated this feeling.
“Get away from me, I-” I snapped, but my voice only came out sounding weak and hopeless.
Gamma Hans pressed his body against mine, sending memories of that night two years ago streaking across my mind. My heart hammered louder and air shut out of my lungs as I remained rooted to the spot. My eyes caught sight of a reflection by the door-it was Bryan. He’d stopped. Our gazes locked… and then he turned away, like I wasn’t there. Like he hadn’t seen me.
I was scared. Really scared. My memories were triggered and my throat ran dry. Tears clouded my gaze. Seeing Bryan leave made me realize I’d either conquer whatever traumatic response I was having-or I’d be molested by this old man.
Shoving my palms against his chest with every ounce of energy I had, with a scream,
“Get off me!” I spat furiously. Gamma Hans’ gaze widened from shock and then anger as he lunged toward me, yanking my hair with a fierce grip.
“Get away from her,” a cold, domineering voice had ordered in a curt manner, causing cold chills to run down my spine as Gamma Hans and I glanced in thedirection it had come from…
“Alpha Ryan?” I whispered.
RYAN’S POV
Anger crashed into me in waves, my blood boiled and something in me snapped seeing a gamma so close to my mate. And not only was he close-he was touching her… he intended to molest her.
