  “What the hell are you doing?” I asked, my voice rising with panic.

  “It’s an injectable version of the anti-suppressant, much stronger than your prototypes, I’m told by your lovely omega scientists down here in the underground. You see, you and I are at odds, and I need that not to be so. So I’m going to teach you what it means to not be in control. I had easy access to the drug. Ethan, Alaric, and Viktor have all been taking regular doses and I just took a vial of it for myself. With you going into heat so terribly close, I don’t know if they’ll be able to resist. I think a humbling experience under the care of three alphas might change your mind about working together with all of us,” he explained, his lips smirking up in a dark grin.

  I hissed as he withdrew the needle from my flesh and whirled around to slap him, but he caught my wrist in his grasp. Although he was smaller than the other alphas, he was still larger than me and handled me with ease. His fingers were strong, but gentle and I struggled to pull my arm free.

  “I hope after this is all over that you’ll be a bit more agreeable when it comes to training our omega army,” he purred quietly, and I simply growled ferociously in return.

  “I’ll never forgive you for this,” I spat in his direction.

  “We’ll see,” he answered flippantly, before releasing my wrist and walking out the door, leaving me to fend off my natural instincts all on my own. I closed the door and whirled around, leaning my back against its cool surface. Quickly, I found the lock and turned it, breathing a small sigh of relief at my momentary glimmer of success.

  I knew it wouldn’t last long. Right now, the anti-suppressant was making its way through my body, fighting against the airborne suppressant and quickly rendering it useless. I don’t know how strong the dose of medication had been or how much faster it would force me into the animal that nature had programmed me to become. Soon, my omega instincts would reign free, forcing me into a heat like I had never known. I had only felt a taste of it before, had only felt the first sparks of estrous. Just that had been a powerful and humbling experience and I knew it would be nothing like what was to come. I had hoped that the next time that happened, I’d have had more time to prepare for it.

  I had no doubt that a full estrous would be that much more intense. This time, I didn’t have the city’s medication to counteract it. There were no suppressant stocks within the omega underground to stop it either. We had never had a need for them due to the airborne suppressant, so I had no hope of stopping what was to come. I was doomed to suffer through every agonizing moment of it all on my own.

  My eye flashed to the clock, remembering how quickly the first feelings of estrous took hold the last time, how a small ball of desire had grown in the pit of my belly and how the very blood in my veins had grown hot as fire. Closing my eyes, I took stock of every inch of my body, trying to gauge how far along I was already. My senses felt just slightly heightened, my hearing and sense of smell far more intense than they had been just moments before.

  The clock ticked tirelessly onward, the loud sound echoing harshly in my ears and I sniffed the air, sensing alpha scent not far away. I knew their underground bunker wasn’t very far from my office, and they’d likely have woken up some time ago. They were probably just waiting for the omegas to return so they could prepare to travel to the training grounds once more.

  I drew in a deep breath, trying to calm myself but I could already feel the fever beginning to rage beneath my skin. My heart was pounding more fervently, the blood pumping through my veins faster than before and the very breath I pulled into my lungs felt fiery hot. I closed my eyes and just focused on quiet and peaceful thoughts, but nothing would stop the coming heat that was bound to take hold very soon.

  With the rising temperature of my body, I was suddenly reminded that I hadn’t had a chance to remove my regulation clothing just yet. Within seconds, my skin itched uncontrollably, the fabric scratching against my flesh and forcing my temperature higher. I felt swallowed up by the terrible cloth and I knew that I had to get it off my body right away. I tore my shirt over my head and tossed it to the floor, followed by my regulation bra next. Hastily, I unbuttoned my pants, each button painfully irritating against my fingertips. I pushed the gray, ugly material down over my hips, taking the itchy panties they forced us to wear with them. I kicked off my boots and then shucked my pants all the way down my legs to my ankles, jerking them off completely then. Finally, I removed my socks, leaving myself stark naked and alone in my office.

  I knew that likely wouldn’t last that much longer.

  My nipples pebbled in the open air and my breasts felt heavy, sensitive even as I dragged my fingers along their curves. My thighs trembled just a little and as I pressed them together, I moaned with shock at what I discovered.

  I was already wet. My arousal was now beginning to surface, and slick was moistening the folds of my slit. I wailed, the sound low and desperate at the back of my throat as I tried to fight back against it, tried to quell the rising tide of arousal that was pooling deep in the pit of my belly. I could feel myself failing.

  Fuck.

  This couldn’t be happening.

  I was going to get Damiyen for this. I should be angrier at him, but I was finding it difficult to focus on anything other than the desire swirling through my blood. My vision grew hazy and the scent of alpha male grew stronger. They were moving closer, likely sensing my heightened pheromones now that my heat was in its beginning stages. It was my body betraying itself to them.

  My pussy clenched hard, wondering what it would feel like to take an alpha cock for the very first time. I was still a virgin, but I had some idea of what would happen. I’d seen my omega sisters, forced flat on their backs by an alpha, but they had been so delirious with desire that they were practically pleading for it.

  I’d never beg for that. I was too strong for that. I would fight it every step of the way.

  My core coiled tighter and even then, I began to question myself. I distanced myself from the door, hoping that moving away from it would quell the scents of me and the alphas on the air, but it didn’t. In fact, their pheromones just seemed to grow stronger.

  Fully naked, I looked around my space. Everything seemed wrong. Nothing felt comfortable and the more I stood there and sulked about it, the more I wanted to fix it. I stalked over to the closet and threw open the door, pulling out the sheets, blankets, and pillows I had stacked inside in case I ever had to spend the night down here. In one corner of the room, I arranged the bedding, spreading the thick quilts and blankets across the floor and pushing the pillows against the wall to make a sort of bed for myself.

  I pulled the table toward me, making a kind of den. I shuffled and fluffed the pillows until everything felt perfect and right. I crawled into the bedding and sat down amongst the soft blankets.

  When I was finally satisfied, I paused and realized what I had done. I was nesting, just like an omega was supposed to while preparing for her heat. I had just given into my feral instincts without a thought. I sucked in a breath, completely embarrassed and very relieved to have been alone when I did so. Even though I was disappointed in myself for falling prey to my natural urges, I still felt better and more comfortable, down on the floor among my blankets and pillows.

  My nipples throbbed and I brought my fingertips to them, brushing over the hardened buds and sucking in a heated breath as a lightning bolt of pleasure zinged down straight to my core. Between my legs, my pussy throbbed, and I boldly slid my hand between my breasts, straight down my stomach until I just touched my wet slit. Slowly, I parted my folds and dipped down further, finding my hard, needy little clit pulsing with desire.

  I moaned quietly.

  The scent of alphas grew stronger and the place between my legs grew wetter. One minute passed, then two, and more and more slick dripped down my inner thighs. I drew my knees into my chest and hugged my arms around my legs, but nothing stopped the rising swell of my heat.

  With a soft w
himper, I reached for a thin sheet. It was soft, made of bamboo and I pulled it around my shoulders, covering my body with its vastness. With a heated sigh, I pressed my forehead to my knees and wondered what was to become of me.

  Would I be lucky enough to suffer through my heat alone? Or would the alphas from the wilds force their way into my office and have their way with me?

  At that point, I had no idea what I actually wanted. The growing desire within me was doing strange things to my mind, forcing me to question my once firm values and waver as my natural instincts forced their way to the surface.

  Did I want to wait out my estrous all alone? Or did I want the three alphas prowling the underground to fuck me through it instead?

  The door clicked, the knob turning back and forth, and a low rumble sounded outside. The scent of alpha male had grown stronger and I drew in a deep breath, suddenly craving more of the smoky, citrusy male scent. The more I breathed in, the more I craved the smell of oranges and lemon, the hazy, burnt scent of cigars and pure masculine desire.

  It was strong and it was incredibly powerful.

  The alphas had arrived.

  The rumble sounded again, louder this time and my body folded in half at its sound. One of the alphas outside the door was growling and it was doing strange things to me. My pussy clenched down hard, and my nipples hardened even tighter into painful little peaks. My skin burned with arousal and all at once, it grew even more intense than before.

  “If you don’t open the door, omega, we’re going to kick it down and then everyone will hear when we fuck you senseless,” Alaric roared, and I knew he was entirely serious. I hadn’t known him for very long, but I knew that when he said he was going to do something, he’d do it without a thought.

  “Damiyen slipped me a key, so calm yourself,” Viktor replied, just loud enough for me to hear, and I moaned quietly in despair. I usually kept the key in the upper right drawer of my desk, right where Damiyen had been sitting and I hung my head, shaking it numbly at my naivety.

  I should have known. I’d underestimated Damiyen in a major way and I wouldn’t make that mistake again.

  I heard the key slip into the lock, turning and clicking and opening my office to three huge alphas who would be ready and willing to guide me through estrous whether I liked it or not. Biting my lip, I waited as the doorknob turned slowly and the door swung open. One by one, the three alphas made their way inside, maneuvering their large shoulders through the narrow doorframe as they entered. I tried to hide in my den behind the table but I knew it wouldn’t do me any good.

  Without a word, they gripped the edges of the table and pulled it away from the wall, revealing me to their view in just seconds. They’d found me, wet, shivering, and aroused. Just on the cusp of estrous.

  Ethan met my eyes first. They were dark and a bit less reserved than before. I scooted backwards in my nest, pressing my back against the pillows along the wall. He growled as he held my gaze and I cried out as my stomach cramped and a pool of slick dripped down onto the blankets beneath me.

  “Please, don’t do that,” I whispered, trying to reconcile with my traitorous body, but it was no use. I was going into heat whether I wanted to or not. It was inevitable now.

  Ethan growled once again, ignoring my pleas, and I doubled over with painful need.

  “It appears as though you need to be taught a lesson in obedience, omega,” Ethan snarled and both Viktor and Alaric grunted in agreement.

  “Gods, she fucking smells delicious,” Alaric said, his voice unsteady with his own desire.

  “Her legs are soaked with her slick. I just want to fuck her pretty little cunt,” Viktor replied, cocking his head to the side as he breathed heavily through his nose. I shivered and bit my lip, feeling my pussy clench as a droplet of slick slid down my inner thigh to the floor.

  “Control yourselves, men. This omega needs to learn what it means to submit to her alphas. The three of us are going to teach her the true meaning of dominance,” Ethan demanded. I stared up into his eyes, trying to control the nervous twinge of desire deep in my belly. What was he going to do to me?

  Ethan began to unbutton his shirt, shrugging it off his shoulders and revealing a toned, muscled physique beneath it. His body was hard, incredibly chiseled, and strong. Despite everything inside my mind telling me that I shouldn’t want him, my body vehemently disagreed. For a moment, I wondered what it would feel like to have his thick alpha cock sliding in between my legs, his knot nestling deep inside my pelvis, and an unintelligible sound escaped my throat. With a quick shake of my shoulders, I pushed such sordid thoughts far away and tried to focus on keeping a level head instead.

  He took his shirt and tossed it aside on the table. He cracked his knuckles, stretched his neck from side to side, and stared me down as he did so. The anxious twinge within me grew undoubtedly bigger and I tried to draw in a deep breath, but my chest felt constrained. Constricted even. The air in the room felt thin and too hot. I drew the bamboo sheet closer around my shoulders even though it likely would provide no protection whatsoever from these alpha brutes once they decided to act.

  Viktor and Alaric followed suit, quickly disrobing and revealing hard chests beneath their clothes. I was momentarily distracted by Alaric’s tattoos. Intricate tribal designs spread across his chest, covered his right arm, and swirled down all the way to his wrist. Mostly dark gray, there were splashes of color that depicted various beasts of the wilds, one being a wolf and the other a dragon. Viktor also had a few tattoos, only his were simpler, a series of black lines and dots that looked like a maze that adorned both of his shoulders and down over top of his chest.

  The three of them stood together, shirtless. My mouth dry, I stared back at them and swallowed heavily. My tongue felt like a ball of cotton in my throat and then Ethan growled once more. I cried out, the ball of pleasure in my belly folding in on itself and expanding in a fraction of a second following his terrible sound.

  “Stand up, omega,” Ethan demanded, and I stared up at him, incredibly frustrated and annoyed at the fresh waves of slick that were pouring down my legs. That was his fault, he’d done that. I rolled my upper lip and returned his growl, snarling as furiously as I could.

  The three of them stilled, staring back at me with disbelief.

  “This whole thing may be new to you, Nikki, but it is never acceptable for an omega to challenge an alpha in such a manner,” Viktor scolded, his lips lifting in a dangerous sneer.

  “Maybe we need to deal with her as we would an omega in the wilds,” Alaric suggested, his mouth curling up in a vicious smirk.

  “What are you talking about?” I asked, trying not to bite the inside of my cheek as I waited anxiously for one of them to answer. My eyes flitted around the room, finally landing on an object I could use to fight back against them.

  It was my tranquilizer dart gun. I’d put it behind my desk, leaning it against the wall last night. It was about three feet from me, and I scooted toward it, bit by bit. The men watched me with a sort of amusement and even chuckled when they saw me reach for it.

  When I eventually closed my fingers around its hilt, I snatched it up and held it close to my chest, aiming it in their general direction.

  “Don’t come any closer,” I warned, and Ethan laughed softly in response. He simply growled again, the sound causing my belly to cramp with arousal once more. My thighs quivered with need and I moaned quietly as my pussy spasmed with desire.

  I lifted the gun and tried to pull the trigger, aiming to hit Ethan in the throat, but the dart flew wildly off in the wrong direction and simply embedded into a wall instead of any of them. The three alphas exchanged a heated look and rushed toward me then. Reacting as quickly as I could, I got off a few more shots but none of them hit any of them. Ethan approached me quickly, gripping my wrist in his fingers, wrenching it backwards and forcing me to drop the gun. The sound of it clattering to the floor was deafening. Viktor’s hand circled around the back of my neck, balling into
a fist at the base of my scalp and pulling my hair at the same time.

  His grip tightened as he slowly made me climb to my feet.

  Alaric gripped the sheet and quickly whipped it away from my body, baring me in a single smooth motion that left me gasping in shame. I moved to cover myself, using my free forearm to cover my breasts. My thighs pressed together, trying to hide the wetness that was dripping down my legs.

  “You’re brave. I’ll give you that,” Viktor said.

  “None of your training will have prepared you for what is to come, little omega. None of your bravery or skills will matter. You’re going into heat, right in the midst of three alphas. You’re going to get fucked. Hard,” Ethan whispered, his voice hot and breathy in my ear.

  “You know what makes me hard, boys?” Alaric offered, his smirk growing by the second. His gaze grew dark, seductive, and dangerous.

  Viktor raised an eyebrow, waiting for him to finish.

  “I like it when my woman’s bottom is bright red and very sore when I fuck her,” he answered finally, his gaze trailing up and down my body suggestively. Viktor’s fist tightened in my hair, forcing my chin up higher and I hummed quietly at the sudden burning pain. My mouth opened in the shape of an o, and then something strange happened.

  The pain twisted into something else. Something different.

  Intense agony distorted into pleasure, making my body throb with an even greater need than before. My skin felt feverish and entirely too sensitive. Ethan finally released my wrist and I tried to cover my pussy, spreading my fingers out but just that simple touch was enough to make me cry out. In pleasure or pain, I didn’t know.

  “What do you say, gentlemen? Want to show the omega how it’s done in the wilds?” Alaric goaded and Viktor chuckled, his eyes catching mine and then venturing down to gaze at my sodden thighs.

  “That does indeed sound satisfying,” Ethan replied thoughtfully. “The mark of my palm on her pale little bottom is an arousing thought indeed.”

  He gazed at me darkly for a moment, then pulled out a single chair. He sat down, leaning backwards and waited.
