Omega Bound Chapter 109

Cyrus

I am hot. And not just physically, because of course I am, but hot as in angry. Also, not hot as in the sight of my mate torching my car out of anger. Damn, she's a brat and I love it. Raven stands staring at my SUV proud, her big, curly hair flowing in the breeze, as other shifters start to move vehicles, I can hear someone yelling about putting it out, but I don't care about the car.

No, I care that my Fireball won't let me close but doesn't want me away. I care that my little Fireball is hurt. I also care that my little Fireball obviously shows her feelings in non-traditional ways and that freaking excites me.

Oh, the fun to be had.

"If you wanted to anger bang Fireball, all you had to do was say that." I say marching up toward my mate, who holds my gaze steady, those eyes, greener today show no hint of fear.

Interesting. She trusts me with her safety.

Noted.

She doesn't trust me with her feelings. "What? If I wanted to, what? I don't want to bang anything. I want you to get through your stupid head that you are not leaving me here. I don't know anyone here. I trust nobody. I am going with you."

"You want me away from you, but then you throw a temper tantrum when I tell you I have to leave. You need to decide Raven. Really think about what you want, because I know what I want." I step closer to her, trying to corner her away from the fire. The heat coming off is going to melt my balls if we don't move.

"You are afraid to be alone here, fine. I get that. But just tell me the reasons why you don't want me to do something. I don't know if you know this Fireball, but I have trouble taking orders." She steps closer to me, her eyes narrow and she could cut ice with the glare that befalls those beautiful eyes.

"You are a beta. You should be used to following orders." Raven growls, pointing her finger at me as she looks up scowling.

"And you are an Alpha she-wolf downplaying your abilities, throwing a temper tantrum in the parking lot like a spoiled brat." I barked out at her, furrowing my brows, frustrated that she points the finger, but won't examine herself.

"How....how did you know that?" Fireball asks, confused.

"It's obvious. Thane and I knew it as soon as we unchained you. Alpha she-wolves are rare. Also, highly valuable. Don't worry, your secret is safe with me Fireball. So why don't you and me and your secrets head back to our room, and we can kiss and make up." I say as I am bent over, talking into her ear.

I make sure to blow a soft breath over her ear as I lift my head back up to see her face. To see what she thinks of my offer. I know the bond must be riding her. My wolf is frantic and getting hostile. He is fearful of losing his mate. I don't know what is going on with her wolf. I don't even know her wolf's name. I know shit about her and that needs to change.

"I am not kissing you." Raven huffs as she turns and heads back toward the pack house. Her red hair blows around her face and body like a fiery goddess as she saunters into the building. Her hips swing on their own accord. Her tight ass sways back and forth as she stomps into the building.

Damn, I am a gone for her, and I need it to happen yesterday.

My watch goes off and I check the reminder that pops up. "Reminder: You have a 6p-6a- shift tonight at the heat clinic. Press C to confirm or N to cancel." Ahhhhhh shit. I forgot about my shift at the heat clinic. Yes, I have a job servicing females at the heat clinic. No, I didn't tell my mate. That could be a problem. I should definitely cancel that.

Matter of fact, I should withdrawal altogether. I also should plan my funeral because I have a feeling if my mate finds out about my heat clinic history and the amount of she-wolves here that I have serviced, I will die.

Dead.

She seems the type to not take well to any of my flings hanging around.

Oh, and the parties. Probably should cancel the parties.

No more orgies.

I head for the elevator alone. Raven took off on one without me, but it doesn't matter. I know where she is going. I step into the elevator and let the doors close, pondering on my sudden life change. I am a one, she-wolf alpha now. Monogamous. The days of staying up all night drinking and banging are over. That's fine. It gets old anyway and you can only have so many shifters at once.

Now, I need to dedicate my life to my mate.

To better her and myself.

Except she is slamming the door to her room right now.

Wonderful.

I go through Thane's old rooms and head toward the adjoining door. Locked. Funny. I rip off the handle and fling the door open. "Weird. The door somehow locked itself and wouldn't open. I fixed it." She looks down at the door handle in my hand and rolls her eyes turning, heading back to the living room.

"Where are you going? I thought you didn't want me to leave? Well, I am here now, so let's talk." I head into the living room and throw myself down on the couch I sat on not that long ago with a mute Ayla.

Crazy turn of events we are having now.

"There isn't anything to talk about Cyrus. I don't know anyone here. I am literally out of my territory and the only person I have been stuck with wants to dump me off here and leave. I am not okay with that. If you are going somewhere, then I am going too. I am not staying here in stranger land." She yelled, waving her arm around showing off the imaginary strangers in the room apparently.

"Stuck with me? More like blessed with my presence Fireball." She hates that. A faint growl starts in her chest. Damn that's hot.

"I can't tell you where we are going. It is classified. I need to go as my pack's beta and attend these meetings. We are strategizing taking down the ring."

"I want in."

"Nope. Absolutely not Fireball. I am not putting you back in with the people that were holding you against your will. Care to tell me how you ended up there? Or maybe where you are from?" Raven remains silent, staring at me. I don't know what she is looking for, but I hold her gaze. Hoping she finds it.

I run my fingers through my dark curls and shake them out. I am about due to cut this shaggy mop, but now I have a mate and would like her input. I would also like any information I can get about her, but apparently what I want isn't a priority yet. That is fine, I can wait.
