“Rory, we’re right here,” Seth’s voice speaks in my ear. “If you need us, just call us.”

“Let me handle Jake,” I hurriedly whisper as Jake’s footsteps come closer. “Don’t do anything until I ask for help.”

Jake appears in the room and comes to a halt at the sight of me. He’s dressed in a crisp navy suit and looks like he’s just coming back from his office. His eyes widen in surprise but he’s quick to wipe it away.

“What the hell are you doing here?” he asks, striding forward with a menacing look in his eyes.

Standing my ground, I glare at him. “Oh? Are you the only one who’s allowed to visit me? Can’t I come to see you too?”

He towers over me. “Why are you here, Rory?”

“I came to warn you,” I say, narrowing my eyes at him. “My mates know everything you did to me. They won’t let you off for hurting me.”

He scoffs and walks past me. “You think they can hurt me without facing consequences?” Loosening his tie, he sinks into the couch.

I whirl around to face him. “You can laugh as much as you want. They will never forgive you for hurting me.” Stomping toward him, I yell. “And who the hell is that in your bedroom? Who is she?!”

A mocking grin spreads on his lips. “Are you jealous?”

I scowl, pretending to look angry and bothered about the strange girl in his bedroom.

He gets to his feet and ambles toward me. “You can’t stand another omega taking your place, can you?” he whispers. His finger traces a line down my neck and over the curve of my exposed cleavage.

I slap his hand away. “Don’t touch me.”

“Why do you bother acting like you don’t want me?” he asks, crowding me against the wall. “You miss my touch, don’t you? Those self-righteous military pricks can never satisfy you the way I did.”

“Do you really think so?” I ask as he pushes his knee between my thighs, forcibly parting them.

“An omega needs to be shown her place,” he says, leaning in to lick my cheek. “You must know you’re nothing but a toy to your alpha. He owns you.”

His words sicken me. How could I’ve ever let such a vile man touch me?

Jake’s hand creeps under my short skirt. His touch disgusts me but I don’t push him off.

Whoever tipped him off probably told him I was alone. That’s why he’s being bold enough to touch me.

His thumb grazes over my panties as he stares into my eyes. “Tell me where they are,” he says in a deceptively soft murmur.

I stare at him, wondering if he’s talking about Seth and his team. “What’re you talking about?”

“The other omegas,” he says, his fingers dipping into my waistband. “They all must’ve escaped with you. Where is the Burton Pack hiding them?”

“I have no idea,” I lie easily.

“Don’t lie to me!” he shouts, grabbing my neck. “Tell me where they are, Rory!”

His fingers tighten, choking me.

I expect the icy chill of fear to paralyze me but to my surprise, my mind stays clear. The comforting weight of the gun in my shoulder holster boosts my confidence as I stare at Jake.

“Tell me or I’ll fucking kill you!” Jake hisses. He chokes me while his other hand stays buried in my panties.

This is my chance, I realize. I must attack him while he’s distracted.

I lift my right knee, aiming it at his crotch, and kick as hard as I can.

The sudden strike has the effect I’d been hoping for.
