Winter
Confusion and fear flow through me, reminding me of my stepmom’s treachery. She replaced my blocker and suppressor pills to bring on my heat and now, it was here.
A sudden painful spasm goes through me as my lower abdomen contracts.
“Ow,” I groan, clutching my stomach.
“Winter, what’s wrong?” Cole is at my side immediately, looking anxious.
“It hurts,” I moan, feeling lost and scared.
I’ve never had to go through a natural heat cycle on my own. The suppressants helped me to block my hormones, keeping me in control of my sexual urges during those periods of time.
Since I’m barely in my twenties, I never gave a serious thought to looking for a mate. My priority was to keep the bakery up and running. Now that my heat is here, I have no idea what to do.
Most omegas who go into heat and have no mates to help them would usually go to a heat clinic. The staff brings in willing alphas to help the omega through those days, relieving them of their sexual urges.
The very thought of being touched by strange alphas triggers my anxiety. Even though it’d help me, I don’t want to go to a heat clinic.
“Winter,” Cole’s voice breaks me out of my thoughts. He touches my shoulder, giving me a gentle shake. “Are you okay?”
Another wave of heat pulses through me before I can answer him.
Cole’s coffee and dark chocolate scent wafts into my nose, aggravating my sudden lust. My core throbs hard, forcing me to press my thighs together.
Confused and scared, I try to make sense of the situation when a loud banging on the door makes me jump.
“Winter, are you in there?” Kai’s voice comes in through the closed door.
“We’re both in here,” Cole answers.
“Is she okay?” Jacob’s anxious voice sounds next. “Her perfume is spreading everywhere. It’s already affecting me and Kai. What if another alpha catches her scent? We need to get her out of here before anyone comes in, wanting to claim her.”
The scent of vanilla and roses spreads in the air. It’s so thick, I feel like I’m choking on it.
Cole moves toward the door and opens it, allowing Kai and Jacob to enter the tiny space.
They stiffen the moment their gazes fall on me. Their irises expand, turning their eyes almost black.
I cross my arms over my chest, trying to hide my trembling, almost-naked body from their view.
“Are you going into heat?” Jacob asks in a strained voice as he unconsciously licks at his canines.
Lowering my head, I nod.
“Shit,” Kai curses. “This can’t be happening in the middle of a fucking store.”
My body grows hotter and my core squeezes emptily. Their pheromones are making my condition worse. I need them to take care of me right away but I’m too afraid to ask.
“We need to get her out of here,” Cole says, staring between his brothers.
“You’re right,” Jacob agrees. “She can’t be here. We must take her home immediately.”
Kai takes off his overcoat and throws it over my shoulders. “Let’s bundle you up before we step out of here.”
Cole takes off his hat and presses it over my head.
Moving closer, Jacob loosens the scarf around his neck and secures it around my neck.
