Christopher’s POV:

I couldn’t believe my eyes. My older brother, Benjamin, the usually composed and commanding alpha was clearly smitten with someone. I was shocked. It didn’t seem real.

He looked at me and asked seriously. “Do you think I’m joking?”

I nodded vigorously.

Benjamin had just confessed that he liked Hayley. A stunningly handsome alpha had fallen for an Omega who wasn’t traditionally attractive. The news hit me like a bombshell–it was so shocking that I struggled to accept it.

Benjamin was quiet for a long time before answering-

“I don’t know. Maybe it’s just a fleeting feeling, or maybe I really do like her. I’m not sure yet, but for now. I’d like you to keep this between us.”
