Chapter 1

I had just lost my virginity to a man, whose face I never even go see.

The memory of his touch lingered on my skin as I found my way back to the banquet hall. My body ached in a delicious way and I could still feel the wetness run between my legs from thy ordeal.

The memory of his touch, his voice, and the way he had claimed me so thoroughly that the fire of my heat had been reduced to nothing filled me to the brim as I made my way to the locker room, where I could change.

I took a deep breath, trying to shake off the nasty thougins that ouded my mind.

There was no place for such distractions in my life. This had been a mistake.

I thought to myself.

But as I stood among the other omegas, I couldn’t help the way my heart raced at the memory of the way his body had molded into mine, the wet slurpy sound that had filled the dark room as the Alpha had fucked into me..

FOUR MONTHS LATER

The sounds of pots and pans banging filled the kitchen, but they weren’t loud enough to drown out the whispers. The sharp, hateful words surrounded me, cutting deep no matter how much I tried to block them out.

“She’s probably slept with half the men in this pack. Such a slut. That’s how she got pregnant,” someone said, their voice dripping with bitterness.

The words hit me like a slap, making my chest tighten. I gripped the wooden spoon in my hand so hard my fingers ached and my knuckles turned white. I stared into the pot I was stirring, trying to focus on the bubbling liquid instead of the burning tears threatening to fall.

My hands trembled, and I lowered my head, letting my hair fall over my face to hide the tears pooling in my eyes as the memories of that night flooded back to me.

THAT NIGHT

The hallway in front of me blurred and seemed to stretch, as the heat came suddenly, like fire racing through my veins. It was too much, too fast.

I couldn’t stop my knees from buckling under me. I pressed my back against the cold wall and clutched at my chest, hoping that the pain would subside. But it didn’t.

My omega nature had betrayed me at the worst possible momen, leaving me trembling and weak the evening of the grand banquet.

I clutched the edge of the wall for support, my other hand clenched the hem of my dress. The fabrie clung to my damp skin, and a light sheen of sweat on my brow trailed toward my collarbone.

A soft whimper escaped my lips as another wave of Heat rolled through me, tightening every muscle in my body. My knees buckled, I bit my lips and I collapsed against the wall, trying to suppress the growing ache.

The banquet was about to start, and Darren, the omega trainer, would punish me if I wasn’t in the hall serving drinks to the powerful alphas. No excuses. Not even this.

Darren, the omega trainer, had made it clear that tonight was now for mistakes. The banquet was a display of power, a gathering of the most powerful Alphas, and I was merely a low nega tasked with serving the guests. I could not afford to fuck anything up tonight, knowing that Darren would have my head.
