I stared at the ceiling, my thoughts drifting to Lyla despite the warm bodies of the two naked Omegas sleeping beside me, I couldn’t stop thinking about her.

The morning light filtering through the curtains cast shadows across the room, highlighting the scattered clothes on the floor- evidence of last night’s passion. My brows creased with a frown as I wondered whether Lyla would show up.

I had sent Lenny to the meeting yesterday, hoping he could help me convince her to meet with me. Lax – my wolf has been prancing around with expectation since her arrival. The only thing stopping me from not going over to Blue Ridge was I needed to be sure she wanted me as badly as I did her.

“Peculiar needs? Is that what we now call cheating?”

“Judging from the way you’re reacting; it means you’re used to seeing something like this. I heard that Elder Thorne loves to have big feasts like this with women. Chill, Cass…”

She glared at me for a while before sighing.

I shot her a lazy smirk, rolling over to tap each girl on the shoulder, rousing them from sleep. “Alright ladies,” I murmured, reaching into the bedside drawer and producing a thick bundle of cash, handing it to each one. “Time to go.”

Both women took the money, hastily gathered their things and left, glancing at Cassidy uneasily
