Myself, for not knowing my own body.
Myself, for taking stupid pills without questioning what they were.
My mind spins, and I try to maintain my grip on reality.
Stupid girl, how did you not know…
Is that why James and Grey were such assholes to me in the beginning?
Were they surprised that an unmated Omega showed up in the middle of the night?
“Gah!” I yell in frustration.
There’s a knock at my door, and I want to fling the lamp at it, and tell whichever Alpha it is togo to hell—
“Harper? It’s Charlotte.”
I bite my lip.
Am I angry at Charlotte?
I don’t think I am. She gave me suppressants, though, and didn’t tell me what they were.
You shouldn’t have taken them without knowing what they were!
“May I come in?”
There’s a long beat of silence.
“Yes,” I finally sigh.
When the door swings open, she looks guilty and chastised.
“I’m sorry,” she whispers, sitting on the edge of my bed and taking my hand. “I’m so sorry I didn’t tell you the truth.”
“I understand why you didn’t,” I murmur. “It’s a lot. I don’t even know if I’m mad atthem.”
“It’s an awful position to be in,” she agrees. “Simply presenting as an Omega is traumatic. And you finding out this way can be terrifying. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.”
“Thank you,” I whisper.
“For what it’s worth, Beau, Grey, and James are good men. You mean something to them. And, if you want to, you could send them away now, and they would continue to let you stay here.”
A sharp pang stings my chest as I imagine rejecting them.
I need Alphas!
“I don’t think I want that.”
They never took advantage of me. I wanted everything they offered.
I don’t regret it one bit.
Even if I’m still confused, frightened, and hurt.
“I think we need to take you to the hospital,” Charlotte says softly. “I think you should tell them what’s happened, and that you need a correct prescription for suppressants. And then we can pick up Heat supplies too.”
Heat.
