Desperate for touch and sensation, I lick along his vanilla scented scent gland and rub myself against his body.
“Switch?” Bird asks, tentatively.
I chirp in answer, looking up at him through my eyelashes.
“Isn’t that just the most adorable sound?” Bird pets my hair, pulling me closer. “What do you need, sweetheart? Does that feel nice? You like it when I stroke your hair? I wish that I could build you a nest. Next time, okay?”
I chirp, eagerly.
Bird strokes down my scent gland, sending shivers down my spine.
I arch into his touch, and he massages my shoulders, before teasing his hand around to the base of my neck.
I sigh in delight.
My purr deepens.
“You’re like a cat who has finally decided that they want a cuddle.” Bird happily scratches the back of my neck. I lean into his touch, begging for more. “Switch, I love you, yeah?”
I wriggle with happiness.
Bird pulls me tighter against him, starting to purr as well.
I never knew that lying like this with another Omega, while our sweet scents mingle and our purrs blend like music, was what was missing in my life.
For the first time, I feel at peace.
I didn’t know that it was possible.
Is this happiness?
I allow myself to drift into a lazy sleep in the arms of the man who I…
Do I love him?
Suddenly, a loud clanking on the bars startles me awake.
My eyes snap open.
Why did I allow myself to relax?
Bird’s purring breaks off. He growls and struggles to sit up protectively in front of me.
I snarl, yanking him down. I throw myself in front of him.
Switch or Rogue, I am still the badass here.
I cringe, however, at the curdled milk scent from the Alpha at the doorway.
The warden.
“Fascinating.” Dr. Gill peers through the bars at Bird and me, before swinging open the cell door. She is dressed in her crisp white scientist coat, clutching a clipboard. She appears excitedat the discovery of me in my Omega form. “Seventy hasn’t transformed since entering the facility. I wonder what triggered it? Her heats are irregular, but I don’t believe that one is due yet.”
“Don’t.” Bird pushes himself up onto his knees. Tears gleam in his eyes. “Take me instead. You’ve already experimented on Ro twice this week. No one is burning her again. Why not test that fucking poison on me?”
What the fuck is he doing?
I chirp at Bird in fury, pushing him further behind me.
