I shiver and cover her hand with mine, easing her away. “I’d love it. Whatever you want.”
She smiles and giggles, the sweetness of her voice reminding me just what a sugary-sweet dirty girl she is. I’ve seen the inner workings of her mind displayed through her art. I kept the one she accidentally left behind the very first moment I laid eyes on her as she knocked me off my feet. It’s right beside my bed on my nightstand. I can’t wait until she discovers it.
“There’s a lot of things I want, but especially you, my dirty girl. Keep standing so close, and we’re going to get started on our workout right here and now.” I playfully growl and take a step away, twirling her toward the bed. She plops down and rests on her hands, crossing her legs.
“If that’s what you want.” Damn. Her easy submission gets to me in a good way.
I lean forward and get in her face, my lips only a breath away. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you weren’t a virgin.”
She stretches her neck, caressing her lips to mine without kissing me. “That’s because I’m not. Does it bother you?”
“Fuck no,” I automatically say. “I don’t want to sound like an ass, but I’m relieved.”
“Why?” Scarlett eases away from me, staring into my eyes. “My mom always said that alphas didn’t want used goods.”
“I don’t want to talk about your mom...but fuck that. I don’t give a damn about staking a claim on your V-card or whatever. I picked you because of what I liked about you on paper, not for your body or your fertility.” I grasp Scarlett’s hands. “Though now that you’re sitting on my bed...”
Biting her lip, she peeks from me and to my naked body before her, the scent of her desire permeating between us. I’ve made a huge mistake. I want Scarlett to be comfortable with me, but now all I can think about is climbing on top of her and ripping her clothes off. Our physical attraction is undeniable, and I savor just how flirty she is. My pack thought it was best if we take the first few weeks slow, but I don’t think they realize that Scarlett might not be as innocent as we—they—thought. I know her perverse, sexy as hell hobby, and I want to get to know this version of her more, not acting in the way Omega Prep surely taught her how to act.
I shake my head, pushing away the filthy thoughts. “I’m going to regret this, but my pack mates will murder me if I knot with you before feeding you, though maybe—no, we should eat something that isn’t each other.”
Scarlett tips her head back, her melodious laughter filling the air and giving me a chance to step away from her to get dressed. I can’t recall another morning better than this, and I crave a million more. I never expected bringing an omega into our pack would be so easy, but with Scarlett, it’s effortless.
Scarlett stands from my bed, sauntering closer, her shadow darkening the wall. “So if we’re not going to indulge in each other, what are we going to do? Study? Drive around? Play a game of a thousand questions?”
I zip up my pants and lift an eyebrow. “I should beat up our pack for that shit. They really wasted your time with...adulting.”
“I understand they all have things to do. I wasn’t expecting all of you to just drop everything with my arrival. And honestly, it’s made it easier on me. It’s nice still having some freedom. I really thought I would be giving everything up. Not that I wouldn’t if you asked me. It’s just nice that I don’t have to.” Scarlett bounces on her feet, suddenly growing nervous as if she’s afraid of my reaction.
“As long as you’re good, then I’m good. But if you get tired of all the crap, let me know. I have a bit more free time. I could always use another teaching assistant. I can get away with a lot more than Jonah or even Dom at this university. As long as the coaches are happy and my students show up when they are told, then things flow easily.” I reach out and caress my fingers to Scarlett’s cheek, feeling the warmth of her skin.
“I’m good. Really. I want you guys to be comfortable too. I know that things aren’t exactly how you expected them, and I will let you all lead,” Scarlett says, drinking me in as if she can’t resist. Maybe she still imagines me naked. I’d be lying if I didn’t feel even more confident seeing her reaction. I work hard on my body. I’m lucky to have someone appreciate it.
I never really thought about it until now. I’m sure my pack mates are having all sorts of internal struggles about the age gap. I’m more easy-going.
“You might want to take the reins with Jonah and maybe Ezra. If you let them lead, none of you will get anywhere for a while.” I grin with my words, wondering how long it will take either of them to break. The masochist, loving the pain of patience.
“Maybe you can help me. I know the whole situation messes with Jonah, and he’s afraid of opening up even a little. I think we can still manage to build a relationship despite me being in his class.” Scarlett shrugs with her words. “Or maybe not. I don’t want to get him in trouble.”
“I think Jonah’s unnecessarily worried. You deserve to get to know him. If he wants to torture himself, that’s fine, but he shouldn’t torture you in the process. You could always test him. Get him back for all the essays and exams I’m sure he takes great pleasure in administering.” I chuckle with a thought. “I’ll take you shopping or something. Pick you out one of those cute plaid skirts. What do you think, dirty girl?”
Scarlett shakes her head, blushing. “I don’t know about that. Maybe I’ll just start slow.”
I hold out my hand to her. “Whatever you want. But let’s think about it more outside of this room. Outside of this fucking manor. I want to take you out and stop treating you like a little secret.”
Scarlett purses her lips. “Are you sure it’s okay?”
“Fuck yeah, it is. No one’s going to even notice. Trust me.” I guide her toward the door, opening it for her.
She bobs her head, her expression softening with her worry. I know I shouldn’t ask her to put so much faith in me, but I will prove myself. I’ll earn her trust and be her perfect alpha. She’ll see.
“Oh, Scarlett! It’s so nice to see you. I was just going to call you about the windows.” A woman stands behind the counter of Beach Brew, one of my favorite coffeehouses, tying her apron around her waist. “I didn’t mean for it to take a week, but I’ve been feeling under the weather.”
I thought Scarlett was acting nervous when I pulled my Corvette into the lot and parked under the tree in the corner. We’re near the beach and not exactly on campus. I thought this would be a great way to start the day. Coffee at Beach Brew and a jog along the waves. It gives me an excuse to see her in the cute sports bra I had Adrian have her pick out.
“Are you feeling better?” Scarlett asks, clearing her throat. “I know that my idea is a bit...dark and wild. I just thought that maybe you wanted to do something more family-friendly for Halloween.”
“Family-friendly? Hardly. I’d prefer to keep all the littles away from caffeine. Save their parents' sanities.” The woman chuckles and motions to a kid sitting at a small table against the back wall. “Plus, my boy approved. He thought your mockup was the best.”
