Omega Bound Chapter 124
Cyrus
So, my Fireball thinks she can drink her sorrows away without me. Terrible idea. She'll learn that I can make everything better. If she would just tell me where she came from, I would deliver her that Alpha shitbags body parts on a platter for her. Maybe some fingers or something romantical like that. Now that she has a phone number, I can harass her all day long. I didn't realize I would be so nervous about it though.
I am Cyrus. I am the four C's. Calm, Cool, Collected, and Crazy. Crazy about my Fireball that is for sure.
*Me-“Knock Knock."*
*Fireball-"Who is this?"*
*Me-"You know damn well who this is. Your insanely attractive mate. Missing his insanely attractive mate. See how much we have in common?"*
*Fireball-"We have nothing in common."*
*Me-"You don't know that, because we have yet to get to know each other. Properly. In many ways. ;)"*
*Fireball-"I know that you're annoying."*
*Me-"I am not, and you love it."*
*Fireball-"I don't."*
*Me-"You do."*
*Fireball-"Leave me alone."*
*Me-"Why? So, you can go back to day drinking and stealing cars?"*
*Fireball-"I don't like being spied on."*
*Me-"Shouldn't have broken into the Alpha's office then."*
*Fireball-"Aren't you supposed to be in meetings?"*
*Me-"The Alphas are arguing it out. Did you have fun on your first she-wolf day?"*
*Fireball-"Shut up."*
*Me-"No."*
*Fireball-"Yes."*
*Me-"Knock Knock. If you play along, I will stop."*
*Fireball-"Fine. Who is there?"*
*Me-"It's who's there. Who Who, like an owl."*
*Fireball-"It doesn't matter."*
*Me-"It does matter. Knock Knock."*
*Fireball-"Who's there?"*
*Me-"Honeydew."*
*Fireball-"Honeydew who?"*
*Me-"Honeydew you want to hang out later?"*
*Fireball-"No."*
*Me-"Liar. You are smiling for me yet?"*
*Fireball-"No."*
*Me-"Tough Crowd. Here is another one, that is more my style are you ready?"*
*Fireball-"No."*
*Me-"Are you a pinky toe? Because I want to bang you on all the furniture."*
*I see the little chat bubbles start and stop a few times on her end. She knows that shit is funny. She probably loves funny. What if that douchebag was funny? Ugh...probably not. He probably has a small dick too. I need to find a way to get her from wanting to protect her pack that threw her away to her wanting to murder them.*
*That I can do for her.*
*It's the little sacrifices we make for each other.*
*"Fine. That was funny."*
*"I knew it. You can laugh. Did you laugh aloud for real?"*
*"I smirked."*
*"I'll take it. I would like to do something nice for you since you are my mate."*
*"Nice like what?"*
*"Like bring you the body parts of your enemies nice. You down?"*
*"No."*
*"Why? You deserve it. Just think about how good it would feel to get revenge."*
*"I would rather torture him."*
*"Oh baby, stop. I can't read all this dirty talk during the meeting. I will start blushing."*
*"You brought it up."*
*"How would you do it...the torture?"*
*"I don't know. Probably slice off his skin strip by strip with a potato peeler."*
*"Yes, yes, loving it. You could use it as paper mâché in front of him."*
*"Skin vase."*
*"Yes, Fireball. Keep talking dirty to me."*
*"Instead of flowers, it can be his fingers."*
*"I want to do terrible things to you Raven."*
*"I can't give you what you want Cyrus."*
*"You don't know what I want."*
*"You want a mate. I can't do that. My heart and my brain are just too messed up right now."*
*"Then reject me."*
*"No. I won't do that to you. It hurts too damn bad."*
*"Well then I'm not going anywhere. You might as well put your legs on my shoulders so we can talk about this."*
*"That makes no sense."*
*"Neither does us being apart Fireball."*
The silence is frustrating. I need her to let me take away this pain, but she has to let me try and she won't. She has probably been ‘miss independent’ for too long. I really don't know how to play this. I don't think smothering her in affection is the right move. She doesn't seem like the type. I could try and make her jealous. The bond does want to be completed, and we can both feel it, but that would probably end up with me getting hurt and I don't want that.
I could try playing hard to get, but I don't want her to feel abandoned. At least if I am annoying her, I am still around and showing interest. An idea starts forming.
"Well, if you are going to hang around, I am putting you to work."
"Like what? A job?"
"Yeah. When I get back you are going to the training field. We need to see what you can do before we throw you on a guard rotation or hunt."
"You can't allow me to serve on patrol. I am not a pack member, remember?"
"But you are my mate therefore I can do what I want. I need to see your combat skills shifted and unshifted."
"Fine. Don't cry to me when you get hurt."
"Hurt me so good Fireball."
If she is a trained fighter and enjoys it, that could help me get closer to her and of course I look great without a shirt. She will enjoy that as well. The bond will pull us together. It will be fated magic on the training field. Or I will put her on her ass, and she will get all hot and bothered, this could work. Behind the scenes I need to find out where she came from. I don't want to go against her wishes, but I don't think it is smart to not know who this Alpha is and technically if he knows how to sell a shifter to the ring. He knows about it and is okay with it. That makes him a dead shifter walking. He just doesn't know it.
I don't think Raven realizes the connection or potential transgressions of her ex Alpha friend/mate. If she really did, I don't think she would be fine with him living. I think she walks around in a cloud of denial about the whole situation and hasn't even processed the part where the asshole knew how to get hold of someone in the ring. She probably hasn't processed what Ayla went through and potentially connected it to her ex. That could be very volatile when she does. Guilt could consume her. I don't want that for her. He needs to be taken out before someone else ends up like her. I just need her to realize it and want to do something about it. Maybe provide her with the opportunity.
