Sitting back in my chair, I replayed my conversation with Liza in the park. She’d mentioned her upcoming appointment with the doctor to discuss her hormone medication. I didn’t specifically know if there were tests a doctor would run to determine if she was omega, or if there was a specific process to figure it out, but she had some of the signs.
After the managers had cleared the room, I turned to Bryce. “Have you ever heard of female wolves taking daily hormonal medications?”
Bryce clipped a stack of papers together and swiveled in his chair to face me. “I know plenty of wolves who take suppressors to stop their heat because they don’t want to risk getting pregnant. But daily? Nope.”
My curiosity had never been so piqued. “That’s weird, isn’t it? The way she explained it, she needs a certain dosage to keep her pheromones at a normal level to avoid incidents like the one I witnessed at the coffee shop.”
Bryce nodded in agreement. “I don’t know what to tell you other than that is really unusual. I’ve never heard of any shifter taking daily hormone medication before. Seems like it would be too much for the average female. Of course, I’m no doctor.” He looked at me with a knowing expression. “Liza might be an omega. I’m serious.”
I shook my head, still not sure it was safe to believe it. But the more I thought about it, the more sense it made. Nothing else could explain why she would need to take daily hormones.
“Maybe she has some medical condition that keeps her body from regulating her hormones?” I ran a hand through my hair, then smoothed it again. It was bad enough that I hadn’t been able to pay attention to business. Last thing I needed was some disgruntled employee labeling me as disheveled and having that get back down the family pipeline of information. “Or maybe her parents passed on some gene that requires hormonal support.”
Bryce shrugged and continued to lay out evidence that supported the idea of Liza being an omega.
My thoughts on the subject weren’t very convincing, but I clung to them, nevertheless. A rare medical condition was more believable than a children’s myth. Of course, it was a children’s myth that provided the entire root system for my family tree.
We went back and forth for a few minutes until Bryce excused himself. He had another appointment across town.
I stood and looked out the window, feeling as if I might crawl out of my damn skin. My curiosity got the better of me as I devised a plan.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket and texted Liza.
Would you like to shift and run with me later today?
My heart raced as I waited for her response. If she agreed, it might answer the question that had plagued my mind all day.
I’d enjoy that.
She included a heart emoji at the end of her text. My stomach clenched. I wanted her, there was no doubt about it, but at the same time, I was so anxious to get to the bottom of her hormone issue that I tried to push my emotions aside.
If Liza was an omega, I wanted to know for sure, and the only way to find out was to shift with her and see if her power and strength exceeded that of a regular wolf.
I quickly replied, letting her know when and where we could meet before ending the conversation. We’d meet on my family’s estate when the sun set, since Liza didn’t have wide open land at her backdoor. Also, I wanted her to be relaxed, without the danger of anyone else watching her.
I stood outside, watching the sunset as I waited for her to arrive. The sky was a mixture of reds and blues and purples and golds. For a moment, I wished I’d suggested watching the sunset before we went for a run, but I was still knew at this romance thing.
I cracked my knuckles. I am not deceiving her. If I repeated that to myself a few times, I might start believing myself.
I needed answers, however, and being near her in wolf form would hopefully answer a few questions. I thought about the best route for us to run through my family’s forest, then it hit me. I was going to see Liza naked tonight.
My body reacted almost immediately, our heated night on her couch flashing through my mind. The moment had only lasted a few seconds, but it had been enough time for me to feel the curves of her body and the way she responded to my tongue exploring her mouth.
My cock hardened at exactly the moment I spotted Liza’s car coming down our long driveway. I quickly willed my erection to soften. Unfortunately, my erection wasn’t subject to my will.
Liza stepped out of her car with a wide smile on her beautiful face. She was gorgeous in the way most women wanted to be and paid good money for.
I walked down and hugged her when I reached her side,, careful not to press my erection against her. I tried not to breathe her in, but I couldn’t resist. Just thinking of that tantalizing scent was enough to make my hard-on painful. She must have picked up her prescription because I wasn’t so tempted to push her back to the hood of the car and take her in any way she would let me.
“Ready to shift together?”
She grabbed a duffel bag from the back seat, which I assumed held extra clothes. “Yes. After the day I had, a good run will do the trick.”
I took the bag from her and carried it as we walked. “What happened?”
She sighed in a way that made the mental picture of her naked body pop back into my mind. I silently thanked the gods that we were outside in the fresh air to dilute the scent of her pheromones.
“It wasn’t one thing in particular.” Liza shot me a smile. “Just one of those days where you feel like you’re chasing your tail and not accomplishing anything. I had three new clients to consult with on top of my repeat customers.”
