“No. What’s the problem?” She leaned to one side while Owen slipped behind her and kept his arms around her.

“These injections could have a dramatic effect on your hormones. You already have rising follicles, so you may be rushed into a heat.”

Renner shrugged. “I do them on my own anyway. If none of them are linked, they won’t feel it. It just means delaying things.”

Owen shook his head. “No. We don’t want to delay things, and if you get mates, you will no longer be a good target for the butthead stalking you. Also, completing your maturation will have the same effect.”

“Yeah, but aren’t two omegas a problem? I mean, aside from Ford and Olivia, I haven’t heard of a pack with two omegas.”

Owen hugged her. “I will suffer through it.”

She looked at him. “So, it’s because of the omega?”

“Yeah, but mainly because a lot of omegas are possessive, jealous, and hella expensive to maintain.” He nuzzled her neck again.

Dr. Oriel asked her, “So, you are good for the injections?”

“Yup. Jab away.”

“It would be best that you get jabbed in the butt.”

Armand grinned. “Don’t tease.”

Thanatos pulled her down, set her on the floor, then slid his hand up her robe and dragged the gown upward. Owen jumped up and sat on the exam table, pulling her arms into his lap.

Armand chuckled. “The view is amazing.”

She wanted to flip him off, but her hands were held as Dr. Oriel used the alcohol wipes on the injection zone. There were six fucking needles. One large, five small.

“Mateo?”

“Yes, precious?”

“Can you smack Armand in the back of the head, please?”

There was a satisfying thwack, and Armand said, “Ow!” just at the moment the large injection went in. She clutched Owen’s hands as the slow spread of whatever inside her burned like hell. She breathed shallowly and used the pain in her hands to focus on thinking through the pain in her ass.

“You are doing very well, Renner,” Owen murmured. He stroked her hair.

She felt the tears starting as the injector withdrew. This sucked. She clutched at Owen through the rest of the injections, and when her butt was covered by the gown and robe, she swallowed and stood up. Wiping her eyes with her palms., she sniffled, and Owen held her. “I am so sorry, baby.”

Dr. Oriel asked, “Is it very painful?”

“Like you just injected saltwater into my glutes. It fucking burns.” She winced as she flexed the muscle in question.

“I am very sorry about that, Renner.”

“Persephone,” Thanatos murmured. “Her name is Persephone.”

Dr. Oriel said, “Of course. Persephone. How are you doing?”

“Dizzy. Blinding pain. Throbbing groin. What else do you want?”

“You are the first stunted omega to get this protocol. We are trying to gain information.”

“Delightful. You could have mentioned that, and I prefer restricted to stunted.” She said it through gritted teeth. “Don’t do this to anyone without a mate, by the way.”

The doctor’s tone was curious. “Why?”
