“Ah. Your name?”

She paused and said softly. “Persephone Renner.”

The receptionist’s eyes widened. “Yes, miss. Go to the elevator and up to the fourth floor. They are going to be waiting for you. Dr. Oriel is expecting you.”

Renner nodded and walked to the elevator. She stepped in and pressed the four. An alpha slid into the elevator before the doors closed, and she looked at him. “Floor?”

He smiled slightly. “Four is fine.”

She nodded, and they started to rise. When they got to the floor, he remained in the car. He smirked. “Nice tattoo.”

She scowled and ran her fingers down all the buttons as the door closed. She heard him curse, and she got her phone out to send Rhymbia a request. She heard a whine of panic that followed her and realized it was her. She shook her head and saw the alpha physician; the woman grinned. “Persephone?”

“Yes.”

“I am Dr. Oriel. Rhymbia contacted me and spoke about your medical situation, and I really want to try the protocol. Will you come with me?”

“Sure.” She wrapped her hand around her wrist and followed the doctor to an exam room.

Rhymbia sent a text that said,Someone will be there when you come out. You think he was there for you?

I don’t think he needed a gynecologist. And he commented on my tattoo, which is covered by my blouse.

Right. Not coincidence. Why didn’t you contact your guys?

They all got cats today. I didn’t want to disturb them.

Ah, well, one is coming to your rescue.

Shit. I was hoping I could borrow one of yours. Oops. Doc is talking.

“Well, I have your bloodwork, but now, I would like to do some ultrasounds and check your blood pressure.”

“Okay. You might want to wait on the blood pressure. I was spooked earlier, and my heart is still thudding.”

“What surprised you?”

“An alpha complimented me on my tattoo.”

“What tattoo?”

She showed her wrist, and Dr. Oriel gasped. “Damn it. You are one of those.”

“I was a custom make after I had already started developing my omega characteristics. Rhymbia was a coincidence.”

“They did this to you on purpose?”

“Yup. For cold, hard cash. I was a ward of the state at a time.”

“You were raised there?”

“No. My parents died. No family was located.” She smiled and shrugged. “I went to a group home, and she started giving me the meds a week later.”

The doctor hooked her up to check her blood pressure. “Damn. Your pressure is high.”

“Yup. Told you.”

“I am going to ask you to change into an exam gown.” Dr. Oriel smiled. “I am going to start your file, so you have a few minutes.”
