“It’s a shame I didn’t know about Hudson’s plans beforehand,” a familiar masculine voice croons in my ear. “I’d have given him what he wanted if he simply gave you to me.”

Surprise flickers through me. I’m sure he’s talking about Jake right now because he’s the only “Hudson” I’m familiar with.

His finger traces along my jaw and down my throat.

“The bastards have bruised you.” A little chuckle escapes him as his finger slides over the swell of my breasts. “I guess they’re not the only ones who’re responsible. Some of the marks on your body were left by me too. I don’t like bruising a beauty like you but it’s just too damn hard to control myself.”

I’m desperate to ask him whether he knows me but I force myself to stay quiet.

During the first week of being here, I begged and pleaded for the men to let me go. I told them I was Mayor Bailey’s only daughter and that he’d pay them millions to return me to him.

When my begging and coaxing failed, I tried fighting them.

It took only a few slaps and punches for me to realize how utterly weak I was against an alpha’s strength. For the first time in my spoiled life, I realized I was nothing but a piece of ass to these evil, lecherous men.

Now, I stay quiet, not giving these men the satisfaction to see me cower and beg. I take shelter in a dark, secluded corner of my mind while they lay claim over my body.

“How would you like to go home with me, Aurora?”

I can’t help the gasp that escapes me. No one has spoken my name since the day I got here.

Another chuckle escapes the man before me. “Would you like me to be the only man to touch you?”

Pressing my lips firmly, I stay quiet.

He’s as much of an asshole as the rest of the men who come here. The women here are nothing but pieces of meat for them to devour. They don’t give a crap about any of us.

It doesn’t matter whether I get fucked by him or a different man each day. They’re all cruel and sadistic. These days, I don’t even bother looking at their faces because they’re all the same to me.

The man before me snakes his arm around my waist and brings his face against my shoulder. “You’re smelling incredibly good today,” he croons. “Tell me, Aurora. Are you close to going into heat?”

Heat?

An icy chill slithers down my spine. I haven’t been able to keep a count of the days and weeks here. Whenwasthe last time I took a suppressor?

I take a deep breath, expanding my lungs.

A familiar fragrance of ripe peaches wafts into my nose. My nostrils flare, catching an underlying note of vanilla and a hint of spicy cloves.

Shit!I curse silently, realizing that this asshole is right. The subtler notes of my perfume become noticeable only when I’m close to my heat.

Panic flares inside me but I do my best to not show it.

“These bastards are going to auction you off the moment they realize you’re about to go into heat,” the alpha speaks. “People wouldn’t mind paying a million dollars to rut an omega in heat. Hell, some packs would come together to pitch in for a high amount. That way they’d all have a chance to be with you.”

Pulling me against him, he leans in and runs his tongue along the side of my neck. “So, so sweet,” he croons. “I want to bite you right away.”

I swallow the bitter saliva that coats the back of my throat.

“I heard Hudson saying he’s never bit you,” the man continues. “I don’t see a mark on you but what if he left a teensy one that’s not noticeable? Are you still unmarked, Aurora?”

Another burst of surprise flares through me. Jake has been talking about me to him?

Despite my curiosity, I press my lips together and refuse to answer him.

A sudden hard tug on the length of my hair makes me gasp.

“Answer me, Aurora!” the alpha shouts, injecting heavy dominance in his voice. “Did Jake ever bite you?”
