Omega Bound Chapter 234
Ayla
"Thane said they have Raven!" I yell from the couch.
"Yes! Is she okay?" Amani slides into the living room, quite literally running fast in socks. She is graceful from her years of dancing.
"He said she is pretty injured from the accident, but they are bringing the shifters back that took her. It was the mate that rejected her and his brother!" I am giving Amani information as I get it, so I am in complete shock, jumping back on the couch dramatically as I say it.
I can't believe it.
"Damon told me she was a rejected mate. I think when Alphas reject their mates, they become insane. I had a friend who danced with me, and she was there because her pack kicks you out if you get rejected. Anyway, I found her and started stalking her. Eventually, he abducted her and killed her. He could not handle that she moved on."
"I don't understand it. Thane is the greatest ever. I could not live without him...well, actually, he is the reason I am alive. These idiots have no idea what possibilities they are giving up when they instantly reject their mates." I shake my head.
"I hope she cuts his dick off. I want to see him cry!" Amani laughs, and I shudder thinking about Sonne's shriveled-up hot dog.
"When Thane finds that out, he won't be happy. He is starting to think that he is the only normal one in our group."
"I heard that saying who my brother is will excuse any bad behavior I might exhibit." Amani shrugs.
"Good point. Thane said they are taking Raven to the clinic. She has a lot of broken glass in her." My wolf snarls in my head. She is quite attached to her guard, whose bloodlust she enjoys.
"We should make some food," Amani suggests.
"Maybe we should check their bathroom, clean sheets, that type of thing?" I ponder. "Actually, I think I am too scared to go into their room."
"So, food?" Amani asks
"Yes." I cringe. I would need to sanitize my eyeballs if I went in there.
A knock on the door pulls me from assisting Amani in the kitchen, "Luna." A guard nods his head, and I reciprocate, still uncomfortable with the formality. "There are two pack members at the end of the drive attempting to gain entrance. Do you want me to turn them away?" The guard states, and my eyes widen in shock, as I'm surprised that anyone would visit me without following proper procedure. However, I also don't want to be unfriendly, and there are quite a few guards here.
"How does Theo feel about it?" I ask.
"He says they are of no threat." The guard responds.
"That's fine. I will see them." I answer, and the guard nods at me again before turning and heading back to his post in front of the house. Soon, I see a dark-colored SUV pulling up with two familiar faces.
Damn it, Rhonda.
"Hello Luna," Rhonda says as she hops out of her son's SUV.
"Whaaaa..."
"I'll be back later to get her," Larry says as his mom shuts the door and he turns out of the drive.
"What? Wait...wait." I say. "Where is he going?" I gesture toward Larry's SUV.
"Oh, I told him I will let him know when I am done," Rhonda says, looking at me with a large smile on her face.
"Done with what?" I asked, confused and slightly terrified.
"I came here to speak with Amani."
"How do you know she is here?"
"I was there when she got her new car, and she said she was driving it here because her mate had to leave. You all sure do buy a lot of vehicles."
"Well, yes. This is true. Well, please come in." I gesture behind me, and Rhonda smiles as she opens my door.
Amani turns in time to see us enter. I quickly mouth 'I am sorry' to her as Rhonda stands in the living area, sizing her up. "Hi," Amani says, as she fake-smiles. She knows the Secret Keeper's Club rules.
No Rhonda.
"Hello, I heard the paperwork girl talking after you left, and I wanted to talk to you about it."
"Oh, okay. About what?"
"Let's sit down and get away from sharp objects just in case," I suggest, because I have no idea what could possibly come out of Rhonda's mouth.
We all sit in the living area with Amani on the couch next to Rhonda and me in the chair. "I heard you are a hooker," Rhonda says as she gestures her hands toward Amani.
"Oh no." I sigh as Amani whips her head back in shock.
"A hooker?" Amani asks, confused by the question.
"You know, somebody who sells some strange for change," Rhonda explains, and I fold my lips into my mouth, trying to hold back my laugh.
"I am a dancer." Amani clarifies with a slight scowl on her features.
"Oh, that is even better!" Rhonda claps her hands in front of her. Amani and I look at each other in confusion. "I have some girlfriends, and we started a club. The name is still up in the air. 'Cooters' is leading. Anyway, it will be a studio with an instructor, but instead of exercise, we have classes."
"Classes," I repeat.
"Yes. Cooter classes. You know dancing, seduction, positions, tips, and tricks. That kind of thing." Rhonda nods, and Amani starts choking on the water she was trying to take a drink of.
"You want Amani to instruct at Cooters for you?" I quickly seal my lips back into my mouth as my chest shakes with silent laughter.
"Yes. She is exactly what we need." Rhonda wiggles her eyebrows up and down as Amani wipes tears off her face from choking on the water.
"Well, that is.....something." I clear my throat.
"Yes, it is," Rhonda says.
"Wow. I am.....um, flattered. I am not sure if that is something I can do right now.... I am.... moving into a home...... and then I will be claimed by my mate, and of course, then my heat. It would be quite a while." Amani says, scrambling for her answer. It actually isn't a bad idea for Amani, minus the club name, if Amani is still interested in staying close to her line of work.
"That is exciting. Who are you mated to?" Rhonda asks, and I cringe right as 'Damon' leaves Amani's lips.
Rhonda's eyes widen in surprise. "You're Damon's mate?" Rhonda says, hand on her chest.
"Yes...." Amani nods her head at Rhonda as she answers slowly.
"He is my favorite."
"You're favorite....what?" Amani asks Rhonda.
"My favorite eye candy." Rhonda scoots back from Armani, and I can't tell if she is sizing her up or checking her out.
Rhonda may not know either.
"He's as sweet as candy, too. If you do him wrong, I'll cut your titties off."
"Rhonda," I gasp loudly.
"I don't plan on it. Also, don't threaten me, or my brother Cyrus will probably cut your titties off." Amani points at Rhonda's chest.
"Oh, I helped raise him, I just love him. That mate of his.....meow." Rhonda shakes her shoulders.
"The guys are almost to the clinic with Raven, we have to go." I stand from the chair.
"Oh no! Raven's hurt? We have to go." Rhonda jumps up from the couch and heads for the door.
"I guess she is coming with us." I point to Rhonda's back as Amani shakes her head, grabbing her keys from the table.
