“Why did you take me?” Her little voice was strong despite her fear. Now that she was fully awake, she must have remembered what happened and realized she wasn’t in the castle anymore.
“Eat your food.” I could see a slight tremble in her body as I reached to hand her the bowl. She looked at the food cautiously, then reached out her arm slowly to take it, pulling back at the last second.
“Did you drug it?” She asked, looking at me in an accusatory way.
“No. If we wanted to sedate you, we clearly have much easier methods than tricking you into eating.” I needed to hand her the food, but she was leaning away from me. I came closer, which I quickly learned was her goal as she reached out to pretend to take the bowl. Instead of taking it, she quickly pushed it up toward my face, almost hitting me with it as she dashed for the door. Unfortunately for her, not only was I expecting resistance, I was also a beta with lightning fast reflexes. I grabbed her from behind as she yanked on the door handle, wrapping her up so her arms were by her sides as she struggled against me, kicking to no avail. She yelled in terror, sobbing as I sat down on the ground with her. “Shhhhh. I’m not going to hurt you.” I murmured, trying as best I could to use my beta instincts to calm her down. It was hard to switch between the line of work I was in to cuddling and calming down an omega. I held her to my chest as she flailed, holding her tight enough that she couldn’t injure herself. “It’s okay. Calm down, omega.” She sobbed as her heart rate slowed with each deep breath I took, holding her as we sat on the floor. I knew the others had heard and were probably watching us on the feed, but I was lost in the feeling of her in my arms. She had responded so quickly to my words, her body relaxing as I held her. She was small and fragile, but with so much fight in her. How had an omega like this learned to be so quick on her feet? She had surprised us from the very start. I wanted to care for her and make her safe, make it so she never had to worry again. Her scent started to sweeten again as her body went soft against mine, her yelling turned into light sniffling.
“What are you going to do to me?” She asked, and my heart nearly broke for her.
“Take care of you and make sure you’re safe until we get you home.” I rested my chin on her head, cradling her until she calmed. She fit so well in my arms, her body curling into mine as she subconsciously sought safety in me. I was beginning to understand why Jameson was so quick to warm up to her. I had flashes of them together, imagining how they’d look curled up in bed with our pack. I’d tried hard not to think about something that would be nearly impossible to have, but ever since I saw him holding her in the back of the van, I’d dared to imagine what it would be like to have an omega in our pack. It was something we’d discussed from time to time, always agreeing our lifestyle wasn’t suitable for one. We were in too deep, our lives a liability for any omega. But now with her in my arms, it felt like the one thing we’d always needed. A reason to keep living, to be better. I felt her melting into me and looked up at the camera, wondering how our pack would handle this unexpected complication.
“I know it’s scary right now. But we are going to get you home. We won't hurt you at all. But I do need to make sure you eat and stay hydrated. Would you like to try some of the fruit?” She nodded, and I reached for the bowl. Then, very slowly, I began to feed her.
Chapter 23
Bella
When I first woke up fully, a big powerful alpha was speaking to me, making me feel safe and happy. But after he left, my memories came trickling back one by one. I’d been in Celeste’s room, trying on her things when the alpha had snuck in silently and taken me. Now, despite his delicious smell, I realized I was in a dangerous situation. The big one didn’t scare me, but there were other alphas here and I didn’t know what they wanted. Also, I was in the Eastern Province where omegas had fewer rights and were taken on a regular basis. Who would know where to find me? Where was I? The panic crept up on me as I searched the room for any way to escape. After a while, I ended up sitting in a chair and waiting. Soon enough, a masked captor entered with food for me.
I’d devised a plan for escape, but the masked beta was far too quick and strong. He’d grabbed me, held me tight and murmured in my ear, thwarting my escape. I wanted to rage against him, hurt him and flee. But slowly, his scent and his voice made my body calm down. A warm, buttery clove scent felt like a warm blanket as it washed over me. His arms were strong yet gentle, holding me as he whispered words of safety to me. It felt so good to be held and protected, even though logically it should be him I needed protection from. But the omega side of me loved it, and I ended up curling into him. His body felt so good that I wanted to rest on him forever. I could feel his lean muscles through his shirt, and even though he wore a mask, I could tell he was attractive. His dark eyes watched me, the only part of his face I could see. When I looked at him, I saw only kindness and concern in his gaze. Who was this man, and where had he come from? He rocked me until I felt calm again.
“There you go. Do you feel okay?” He asked, his deep voice soothing me further with every word. I adjusted myself.
“I’d feel better if we stay like this.” The words just came out of me, and I felt my face heat. He chuckled, his chest moving under my body as he laughed.
“If that’s what you need. I’d love to feed you too, if that’s okay.” I nodded, and he reached for the bowl that had been flung to the floor. There were a few pieces of fruit still left in it, and he grabbed a handful of cherries and strawberries. “Here, try this.” He lifted a cherry up to my mouth. Until this moment, I hadn’t realized how starving I was. I opened my mouth and he put the piece of fruit in, his fingers grazing my lips for a brief moment before reaching for another piece. The red fruit was sweet and just a bit tart, and tasted oh so good after not eating for who knows how long. I moaned as I swallowed it, and felt a hum of approval come from the masked beta. He brought another piece of fruit up, and I looked into his dark eyes as I opened my mouth and bit into it. We kept eye contact the whole time, despite how bizarre it was, and I felt his heated gaze look straight into me. He seemed to breathe heavier as he continued to feed me.
I felt so good on his lap, wrapped up in his arms. What was wrong with me? His scent was just so good that it was impossible for me not to want to be as close to him as I could. Maybe it was the adrenaline of waking up and realizing I’d been kidnapped, but my body was responding strangely. He felt so good. “Why are you being nice to me?” I asked shyly, and he looked at me so pointedly that I finally looked down. He reached a finger toward my chin, tilting my head up to see his eyes again.
“Why would you say that?” His voice was so gentle, it made me feel embarrassed.
“Because, I mean, you took me, and I’m not worth much. Is that why you’re giving me back? No one has a ransom for me?” I choked, wondering how my parents would have done if they had to find money to get me back. He held me tighter, rocking me as he murmured.
“Noooo, little one, never say that. You are priceless. We’re taking you back home because it's the right thing to do.” His finger traced up from my chin, moving a piece of hair out of my face and then back over to my lips, barely touching them as he looked down at me. I swear this man had entire galaxies in his eyes, and I wanted to explore them.
The door opened again, and our trance was broken. The big muscular alpha entered, a smile on his face as he carried a plate filled with cheeses, honey and more fruit. “I see a certain little omega decided to have a picnic on the floor! Mind if I join?” My heart fluttered at seeing him again. Based on how the two men were acting, I guessed they were pack mates. The big alpha who initially took me sat down on the other side of me as I watched him. He was so attractive in a rough way that I wasn’t used to. I could tell he did a lot of manual work, and his hair and beard were cut short so he didn’t need to style himself. He leaned over and grabbed a piece of cheese, then drizzled some honey on it. “I thought you deserved a nice platter of all the finest food we have. You are probably starving.” His deep voice filled the small room along with his oak and honey scent, and I immediately felt at ease. For some reason I felt attached to him, although I remembered he was the one who took me in the first place. Did I have Stockholm Syndrome already? I was too enamored by their scents and the tasty-looking food to think about it for long. The big man reached over to feed me the cheese, and my gods, was it divine. My eyes rolled back as I let out another small sound of satisfaction.
“Oh, you’ll be the death of me, kitten.” The alpha breathed, his blue eyes suddenly looking like oceans as he reached for some cured meat. “Try this! It’s a delicacy, very rare.” I opened my mouth as he gave me a bite of the appetizer, watching me intently as I ate. It was strange - I’d never been fed like this before, not that I could remember. But when the beta pulled up another piece of fruit, I suddenly felt like a queen. They were cuddling me, saying such sweet things and hand feeding me as I laid in the beta’s arms. I could tell the big alpha wanted to get closer to me by his stare, but he didn’t touch me except for my mouth when he gave me some more food. It was so caring and gentle that I let out an unintended burst of perfume. The two of them barely shifted, but I could tell they smelled my slight arousal when the alpha’s pupils grew large and the beta moved slightly underneath me.
“Sorry, I just - I don’t have my suppressants.” I didn’t want to tell them I was close to heat without my pills. The beta cuddled me close and reached for the water bottle.
“No need to apologize. I told you we won’t hurt you. Have some water.” I took a sip from the bottle and couldn't stop looking at them both. Their scents were driving me crazy, and I wasn’t able to stop my perfume. But I felt so comfortable with them that it almost didn’t matter. I was going to enjoy this, dammit. I’d already been denied enough in my life. Why not relax and let them care for me?
Each bite and lick as they fed me was provoking a deep rumble from them. Were they already purring at me? That was an even bigger mistake. One of my favorite things in the world was the feeling of an alpha rumbling as he held me close. It was what I loved most after a heat, the closeness and intimacy that I so rarely received after satisfying the inevitable urge of the heat craze. I stopped worrying about my perfume at this point. I just wanted them to be near me. Before I knew it, I had reached out my hands to the alpha, pulling him in close to me as he cuddled me with the masked beta, making a small pile as we sat on the floor. If this is what being kidnapped was like, I’d take it any day.
Chapter 24
Cy
I watched as half our pack fawned over the captive while Kian looked on with an ice cold glare, his hand running through his hair every so often. I’ve never seen his styled cut as messy as it was right now. “This was not the plan! He’s not even trying to hide his face now!” He growled, stalking over to the monitors as we watched Maddox and Jameson feed the omega. Jameson had wasted no time getting his own food to join in on feeding the girl. I had to admit, it was so hot to watch them. They took turns slowly giving her small delicacies, their fingers lingering near her lips with each bite. Maddox held her in a lover’s embrace as Jameson molded to their side and doted on her, their large frames magnified by her little one. Every once in a while, one of Jameson’s fingers would go just inside her lips while she ate, and I could see him shudder slightly as she slowly licked honey off of his fingertips.
“Jesus, it’s like watching sensual porn.” I remarked as I tried to stay levelheaded. As hot as it was to watch, I was sure it was even hotter to be in the room. Their scents must be going crazy right now. I’d have to make sure to air out the house soon to keep everyone from going into a rut.
“We’re all on suppressants. Make sure everyone takes extra tonight or we’ll have a real problem. We need to get her off our hands quickly, not fuck her!” Kian said as he pulled at the crisp white collar of his shirt. He was right. Something about this omega had us all losing our collective minds. I thought hard about what to do next. It seemed two members of our pack were already smitten with her, and I wasn’t sure I’d be able to resist her either. Kian seemed determined not to let her get to him.
“I have an idea.” I offered as Kian faced me, his features etched with frustration. “Why not take her to our place? She’s clearly not a threat, and we can’t stay in the safe-house much longer. You need to get back to work to keep up appearances.” I could see him considering. “Think about it. No one’s looking for her. We can’t stay here much longer, and we’re more secure there anyway. We’ll need more supplies soon.” Kian looked at me like I was crazy.
“Are you serious? From the frying pan into the fire? Look at how everyone’s acting, and we just met her. Taking her to our house will be a disaster!” He paced through the room, glancing at the screen for a moment before running his hands through his hair again. I could tell the sight of our pack with her was making him just as aroused as it was making me.
