Her eyes blacken.
I chew back a purr.
I can be so much more pathetic if it makes her suck her pretty lip like that.
Hell, I’ll take notes from Dutch.
“First aid kit.” Wobbling to her feet, she pulls the cord on the pitching machine and darts under the nets, only stopping to point at me. “Stay.”
Her order locks my joints.
Sitting on my ass like the good boy I’m not, I roll the feeling around.
Sol’s command isn’t exactly Jin’s whip. That always hits with the shoulder-dropping reminder he’s top dog—and my top dog, which makes a difference.
Then it’s strong yielding to stronger.
But Sol’s simple stay has me frozen on my haunches.
Omegas don’t do that.
If my mate tells me she wants something, I’m already running. Not because she ordered, but because I need her happy and fulfilled.
Now I’m locked so hard I’m not sure if I’m allowed to breathe, and it’s weirdly fucking satisfying knowing I can pass out and still deliver.
Gammas are something else.
I’m cool with it, with her, with almost fucking anything. Just don’t want to find out what happens if she orders go away.
After a visit to reception, Sol jogs back.
I haven’t twitched.
Soon as she kneels behind me with a rusted metal kit, her order eases and my chest can finally stretch.
Have to ask Jin what’s up with our pack hierarchy.
Sol’s fingers graze my bruise. “Lucky it wasn’t your pitching arm.”
Luck had nothing to do with it.
I reacted how I was trained to react.
Muttering, Sol rummages through the kit until she snags an ancient ice pack—one of those snap-to-freeze deals. She breaks it brutally in half. “This better work.”
“Or you could just blow on it?”
She mashes the pack. “Don’t act like you’re not hurt.”
I shrug, then wince. Oops. “The old injury hurts worse than the new.”
Her fingers drift toward my scars—surgeons had to butterfly me open to jam in the rods. “I should’ve been there.”
“At the hospital?” Nah. I’d rather bleed out than let her see me wrecked. “But where’d you go? After you disappeared?”
“You mean, after you all disappeared? I’ll tell you if you tell me.”
“Done.” She’ll find out soon anyway.
