“I’m sorry. I thought I was paying you a compliment,” Wilder said, frowning.

Oh shit, did I say that last bitout loud? “Um… I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean that.” He brushed a hand through his hair. “It’s been a weird few days. I’ve got a lot on my mind.”

“Clearly,” Wilder whispered, unmistakably disappointed. “I’ll leave you to it, then.”

“I’m sorry,” Avery murmured again as the man left.

He dropped his head into his hands and sighed. After lifting it and glancing at his watch, he focused on the vendor list again.

“Hey, sorry I didn’t come in to help sooner,” Wilder stated from the door. “My last couple of projects took longer thananticipat—”

Avery lifted his head from the laptop and glanced around. It was getting dark outside.My medicine!He glanced at his watch. Six-fifteen.

Oh, shit.

He spun to face Wilder, and the alpha’s scent hit his nose. The man was too close.Too much.He clenched the edges of the conference table as his world spun upside down. His womb clenched.Hard.A moan poured from his lips.Oh, no… oh no… oh fuck no!He tried to rise, his knees weak. “I have… to go.”

A tidal wave of lust crashed over him… and another moan poured from his lips. Slick wept from him.

Abruptly, he was dragged into Wilder’s powerful arms.

He lifted his face, staring at the fierce man, and realized he was lost.“Help,”he whimpered.

A tremor raced through Wilder. He released a growl that only caused more slick to flow.

“I need…”Avery mewled.

Wilder pressed a gentle kiss against his sweat-beaded brow. Another clench of his womb had him digging his fingertips into Wilder’s biceps.

“Wilder…”

The door to the conference room slammed open, and Vaughn stood in the opening, nostrils flared.

A second alpha had caught his scent.

Spots formed in Avery’s eyesight. He struggled to breathe. Dragging at his necktie, he loosened it as best he could while gulping air. Panic mixed with the overpowering lust swimming in his veins.

Before Vaughn made two steps into the conference room, Wilder left him at the side of the table and bodied Vaughn out the door. He slammed the conference room shut, locking it, before spinning to face Avery.

“You’re…omega.”

The last word was more growl than speech. Shaking and leaning against the side of the table for support, Avery nodded.

“Yes.”

Wilder crossed the room, slower than Avery wanted. Slower than any alpha should’ve been able. He collected Avery in his arms. Lifting Avery’s chin, the alpha searched his face.“My… omega?”

How did he know?Avery closed his eyes and nodded.

Wilder nuzzled against him. He released a deep breath. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

As the seconds passed, it was harder and harder for Avery to come up with a coherent response—not in the midst of his heat.“I need…”

Wilder growled, the sound reverberating through Avery.

Avery reached down and brushed his palm against Wilder’s hard cock.“Help me…”
