“I’m not going to lie, I felt a connection instantly with Nash when he helped me the other day, not to mention he’s sinfully sexy.” She gives Ledger a flirty smile. “And I must say, so are you.”

“And Aubrey? She’s with us. We’re a package deal. So if she’s a no, then we’re a no, and it’s best you just tell us now.”

“Jesus, Ledge. You didn’t even let her finish. Way to scare her off after literally just lecturing me on making her nervous.” I elbow him in the ribs while glaring at him.

“Go on, Willow. Never mind him, he’s protective of his pack.”

“Sorry,” Ledger sighs, rubbing a hand through his brown hair. “We’ve been hurt and turned down by omegas before because they’re not into sharing us with another woman or not into women themselves, so I get defensive over our little siren.”

“I completely understand. I’ve never been with a woman before, but I am into them, so I’m very much open to it. I’d like to think that it’s the person I’m attracted to and not what’s between their legs.” She swings her gaze to me and licks her lips, that flirty smile aimed my way. “And I very much like what I see.”

Yup, I’m done. Stick a fork in me. Can betas have slick? Research says no, but my panties say yes.

“I very much like what I see too,” I rasp.

“And you were worried about us. Look at you over there. Boyfriends who? You have a sexy little omega to play with now,” Ledger teases, making Willow giggle.

“I’ve met with other packs already, and they all wanted me to be exclusively their omega forever. While I do want exclusivity when we are together, I’m looking for a temporary pack for now. People to help me through my heats. I’m young, and well… the past few years of my life have been heavily controlled, so I’m more looking for fun. After the fun, I want to eventually settle down. Will that be a problem?” Willow asks, looking at her nails and picking at her thumb like she’s afraid of our answer as she waits for us to reply.

Nash is the one to answer first. “We aren’t against temporary, but I think I speak for all of us when I say we'd like you to at least be open to it growing into something serious.”

“I’m not against having a pack, and this is going to seem like a lot of baggage since we just met, but I came here to Calling Wood to be me. Or I guess find out who me is. When I presented as an omega, my dad kept me home. He was so set on the fact that there were alphas out there who would use and abuse me that he kept me from living my life at all. I lost all my friends, and if I’m being honest, I lost myself. So while I’m not against finding my forever pack, my first priority is just living life freely. I want to be me, whoever she may be.”

“Okay,” Nash smirks.

“Okay?” Willow repeats curiously.

“Yeah. It makes sense, and I kinda wanna find out who Willow is too. So I’m in.” He looks to his side at Ledger and me.

“Willow, I am your alpha… temporarily,” Ledger says in his best Darth Vader voice. I roll my eyes at his obnoxiousness, but Willow throws her head back in a loud laugh. I can’t help but think it’s the best sound I’ve ever heard.

“I’m in too. As long as you’re okay with an occasional Chattergram pic. I’m kind of an influencer, I guess you could say, so I take pictures of everything.” I shoot her a wink.

“Yes!” She claps. “I haven’t been on the app in forever because what was I going to post, my bedroom? The show I was watching reruns on for the hundredth time? I’m so in, you can help me revive my page.”

“I’d love that,” I whisper. Watching her light up as she talks about her profile and loving that having a shared interest means we’ll be spending a lot of alone time together.

“Don’t encourage her, pretty girl. She’ll be pushing for a SensualMe next,” Ledger jokes.

“That’s the camgirl site, right?” Willow questions.

“Yeah, it is. Ledger is just kidding, though. I’ve made a couple of jokes on how we should make one, but that’s all it is. A joke.” I give Ledger the side eye.

She nibbles on her lower lip, her eyes floating around the three of us. “I’ve actually been thinking about setting something up like that myself, to make my own money while here.” She sits up straighter, squaring her shoulders, and clears her throat, her confidence slipping back into place. “Will you help me make one?”

Cocking one eyebrow at her reaction I respond without hesitation, “Absolutely.” My lord this woman is everything I could have ever imagined I wanted. She’s perfection.

Chapter Seven

WILLOW

A few days have passed since meeting Pack Monroe. And honestly, I don’t think I could have found a more perfect pack to help me through my heats.

It helps that all of them are insanely attractive; it’s what drew me in, but it’s their personalities that sold me.

Aubrey is sexy, confident, and funny. She has a flair for being an influencer, and I did spend a few hours going down a rabbit hole to find everything and anything she’s posted online. Mostly, it was to get a better understanding of the things she enjoys doing. But also, I just like looking at her, seeing her smiling face, the way she puts sexy outfits together for her photos on Chattergram, or listening to her voice in her videos. It’s safe to say I’ve already grown fond of the fiery redhead.

Nash is playful, a little mysterious, and odd. I like that about him. At first look, he gives off dark and broody vibes, but he’s anything but. He’s always smiling when we meet up for lunch. His laugh is contagious, and he has me blushing harder than I ever have for anyone before. It’s the way he looks at me like he’s holding himself back from taking a bite out of me anytime he sees me. Although if he did, there'd be no complaints from me.
