I drop both my sandwiches to the counter and make gimme hands at him. No way was I gonna have him jerking off in the shower. Not when I could do something about it. And I definitely could.

Jonah beams at me, velvet gaze twinkling as he pulls the corner of his lip between his teeth.

Super sexy.

“Sorry, little wolf. As tempting as the offer is, and it isverytempting, you’re not as strong as you think you are .”

I cock an eyebrow at him. I’m plenty strong. For an omega, anyway.

“Right now, at least. You need to eat and relax, OK? I’ll be out soon.”

I hate to see him take care of himself, but he has a point. If I stop actively shoveling food into my face, like I just did, I get hit with an awful case of the spins. So, I take a seat at the island and continue hoovering.

It’s a small price to pay for being claimed.

For being a real-deal omega who took her alpha’s knot.

Fuck, I could cry happy tears if I weren’t already so preoccupied with not starving.

I focus on eating and on all the giddy feelings that being arealomega comes with, not the anxious thoughts lingering in the background that this might have been a fluke.

Or that I might not be able to do this again.

Because really, that’s just my mind doing what it’s always done—preparing me for the worst by expecting the worst.

But I’m set on leaving a little space for hope that maybe I don’t have to protect myself so much.

Maybe everything isn’t just a disappointment waiting to happen.

On my fifth sandwich, my mind wanders to the events before Rafe officially claimed me.

Jaxson.

He wants us to go to Laurel Cove and speak on his behalf. Tell the Laurel Cove wolves what pack life here is like. And honestly, it sounds fun. Going all the way to the East Coast, seeing a big US city, and meeting big city wolves…

The moment I let myself become even the smallest bit excited about the possibility, that overprotective worrywart in my head smothers it all away like water on hot coals.

Because I couldn’t possibly leave Mari here all alone. Not when she hardly knows a garlic scape from a spring onion.

If something were to happen, there’s no way she could handle the healer stuff by herself.

Even if it would be fun to leave British Columbia.

I’ve never been anywhere else, and seeing how other big city packs do things might be good for us.

I snatch up sandwich number six and jam half in my mouth.

What did Rafe think about all this?

I turn to see him still snoozing on the floor, still looking delicious as fuck. He must have stripped out of his sweaty clothes before passing out. I wasn’t sure, though, ‘cause I’d conked out almost immediately. Now, I had the pleasure of taking in his fantastic form. One long, muscled arm drapes over his eyes, and a triangle of sheet covers his hips, so low that bits of dark hair peek through.

Technically, he’s fully covered, but that sheet doesn’t leave much to the imagination. Every line and ridge of the cock that had just killed me is on full display through the thin material.

My downstairs gives me a little tingle, letting me know I’ve gawked long enough.

But, God, I am so fucking lucky.

Rafe’s lips twitch into a smile as he dreams and I turn back around to my duties as the pack garbage disposal.
