Theo burst into laughter. “Is she having fun?! Hell yes, I see why you like her, Archer.”
“Shut up,” I snarled, glaring at the manically grinning Theo who looked like his day had just gotten a whole load better.
“Turn it off,” Gage ground out, not even looking at the blank screen, like he was worried he would see something dirty.
With shaking hands I quickly closed the window, and the only sound was Theo still giggling from the armchair.
“I don’t think she’s talking about us,” I finally said, looking over at Gage.
He looked ahead, his elbows resting on his knees. “In that case, back to the plan.”
“Which is?”
“Figuring out how to break into a god damned Haven.”
ChapterFour
Lavender
After making myself cum, I slept amazingly for all of an hour until the bitter and angry tone of the alpha invaded my sleep. Unable to settle, I eventually gave up at around six in the morning and crawled out of bed. Checking my phone for the hundredth time, I grimaced. No messages from Archer. Ceasing all communication with me must have been in his best interest. His pack leader clearly disliked me and there was no way in hell I could be in a pack where the pack leader despised me. That would be a terrible position to be in. Archer was probably just being pragmatic. Not that he’d even hinted at us being pack, but a girl could dream.
I threw on some gym shorts and an oversized T-shirt. In a moment of insanity I had agreed to attend a cycling class with Fawn first thing, something I was now heavily regretting after a night of minimal sleep.
As I was up first I waited in the common room, scrolling through my phone, deleting any family messages. They kept managing to get through no matter how many times I blocked them. I wasn’t going to give the time of day to people who believed omegas shouldn’t have opinions or have a single individual thought and should instead just bow to their alphas' will. Those messages went straight in the trash.
Scrolling through some gifs and links from friends I made myself a herbal tea. Fawn was a fairly early riser, so I knew I wouldn’t have to wait too long for her to appear. I was halfway through the mug when Fawn bounded out of her room in a pair of leggings and a sports bra, her blonde waves up in a chic,effortless messy bun. If I attempted that hairstyle I would look like I stuck my finger in an electrical outlet.
“Hello Lav! I thought you wouldn’t be up for a while, breakfast?” she asked happily as she practically floated over to me.
“Yes please, I wantallthe pancakes.”
Fawn frowned. “What’s wrong? Pancakes are your sad food.”
I cursed myself internally. Of course she remembered that, she was too damn observant, and I was predictable. “It’s nothing too important. I think Archer and I won’t be talking anymore.”
“Oh no, why?” Fawn asked, sitting next to me on the sofa, her soft rose scent flooding me.
“I don’t think his pack leader likes me.” I shrugged.
“Well, then he’s a total idiot if he doesn’t. I’m sorry about Archer though, I know you were getting close to him.”
I laughed. “It is what it is, plenty more alphas to choose from, I could be drowning in knots if I actually wanted to.”
Fawn snorted. “Isn’t that true? I don’t know why you don’t get some heat helpers in—aren’t you due for another heat soon?”
“A few weeks,” I nodded. Unfortunately I was blessed with particularly brutal heats I couldn’t suppress. The first time we had tried my kidneys had several issues—there was something in the suppressants my body didn’t like. I was fine with all other medications, but somehow I pulled the short straw and got a suppressant related sickness, leaving me with no choice but to ride out my heats.
“Are you sure you can handle it?” Fawn frown.
“I’m sure—I’ve been doing it for years.”
Fawn looked thoughtful for a minute, sensing that I didn’t want to linger on the topic of my heats. “How about we do our hair after cycling? I kind of want pink hair, the same way you have the purple.”
“You want to change your hair?” I asked in shock. “What happened to:I’ll never change my beautiful hair?”
“I don’t know,” Fawn sighed. “I just want to do something different. I’m sick of always trying to look perfect.”
“You’ll still be annoyingly beautiful with pink in your hair, you know that? I won’t question it though! I say let’s do it!”
