Especially since their last meeting face to face didn’t go well at all.
Abel simply nods.
“I owe you an apology,” he states as he wraps an arm around his Omega’s shoulder. “For how I behaved when we first met.”
“And you still owe a new phone,” Ava says, unimpressed. “That was my newest upgrade, jackass.”
But Abel gives her a brilliant smile, amused. “Draven texted me the same thing.”
Draven.
“Wait…hold on…are you and Draven...” Hazel stares at her best friend in shock.
Ava gives her a grin. “How do you think I got here, dork?”
Oh my God!
“Tell meeverything!” Hazel screeches excitedly. “Are you—did he—”
Ava explains the best she can, and Hazel hangs on to every word.
Draven picked up where Abel left off, leading to the best of his abilities while remaining anonymous. Ava helps in the small ways she can, including creating a board of Omegas dedicated to communicating with local leaders.
It’s not going to be easy. Most Betas are afraid of what they don’t know, especially after seeing the violence that was caused.
“That’s what givesusthe power,” Ava says. “They’ve never been afraid of us before. And if we can leverage who we are and use it to our advantage, maybe things can change.”
She turns to Hazel. “I said it before, but I’m sorry I didn’t listen to you sooner.”
Hazel thinks of Connor, thinks of Abel, and thinks of her best friend in front of her.
“Tell me if there’s anything I can do to help.”
Her friend smiles. “There is one thing.” She glances at Abel with a knowing look. “One thing you can do for me that will help in the long run, I think.”
Hazel nods eagerly. “Of course. What?”
Ava tilts her head and narrows her eyes. “Be happy, you dork.Enjoylife.”
Oh. Hazel can do that.

TWO MONTHS LATER
Abel’s headis buried between her legs, taking his time as he licks her open. She tugs impatiently on his hair, threading her fingers through his strands as she lifts her hips up to rub her cunt obscenely against his lips.
She’ll never tire of it. And, judging by the way he’s growling into her core, neither will he.
The ring shines brightly on her finger as the sun shines in through the curtain in their bedroom. As her orgasm hits, she marvels at the way the stone sparkles until she has to scrunch her eyes shut due to the overwhelming pleasure.
There wasn’t a proposal or a grand gesture. He simply slipped the simple band with the tiny stone onto her finger one day when she was lost in thought, and she stared at him in shock when he smiled.
“It’s a placeholder for now,” he had promised her. “When everything settles down, I’ll get you another one.”
But she thought it was perfect.
Even more so now, as she stains his face with her slick.
When she finally collapses against the pillow, he presses a kiss to her cunt lips one last time. He climbs up the bed and pulls her against him, spooning her as he pets her hair.
He’s a mess, but she doesn’t care.
She just needs to have him close as he presses kisses against her mating gland and purrs just for her.
It’s only been two months, but it feels like a lifetime. Draven and Ava are making progress, and her friend has been keeping her up to date with mostly good news.
Everything has turned out better than Hazel ever thought it could.
They lie in silence until she drifts asleep, her fingers intertwined with his, hope for a better future blooming in her heart.
