“Ruby,” he said as he looked at me in the eyes. “I’ve been waiting for this day—the day when I could ask you to be my wife and join our pack in marriage. I know you had your doubts, but I had to wait until I was certain you were ready. Our pack is complete, and I know that each of us has something special with you. I love you, and I want you to know that. Will you marry us, Ruby?”
I didn’t notice the tears filling my eyes as I nodded, unable to speak for a moment. “Yes. My answer is yes.” I looked at each alpha in turn so they could see the happiness reflected in my eyes. I laughed softly as Wayne licked the remnants of the cake from the ring and slid it onto my finger.
It fit snugly, catching the light perfectly.
“Oh my god, I’m engaged,” I cried out, holding my hand up. The customers of the restaurant clapped as I cupped Wayne’s face and kissed him deeply, my heart overflowing with joy.
After takinglots of pictures with my alphas, our happy moment was interrupted when I noticed someone walk into the restaurant. He sat between three omegas at a distant table. My palms turned clammy when I recognized him as Henry. We all knew who he was since he gave speeches all the time at the compound we all lived in as a pack.
“What is it, Ruby?” asked Davy.
“Marrok’s dad,” I breathed, frozen as I looked at him. “I want to talk to him.”
One of the omegas had her hand on his lap, obviouslytouching him inappropriately underneath the table, but no one else seemed to notice.
“Leave it, Ruby,” Davy said. “We’ll handle Marrok on our own.”
But I couldn’t let this go. I needed to make sure my little family was safe. Before either of the alphas could stop me or figure out what I was going to do- I marched over to Henry’s table.
As I stopped in front of him, he raised his eyebrows.
“Are you our waitress?” he asked, confused and smiling while his omegas were literally draped over his arms.
“I’m Benjamin’s daughter,” I explained. “I was the one you told Marrok to marry.”
His eyes flicked to Wayne and Jasper by my side and then back to me, his expression darkening. He placed his fork down slowly, his voice cold and dead. “Did your father go against my orders and give you away to another pack?”
“No!” I snapped. “Your son kidnapped me and held me captive for days!”
Henry fell silent, only nodding after a moment.
“That’s…unfortunate.”
“Well, aren’t you going to do anything about that? Don’t you have a rule for alphas kidnapping omegas? He could still be looking for me,” I cried out, annoyed that he was being so nonchalant as he kissed one of the blond omegas.
“My son has peculiar habits,” said Henry. “He didn’t hurt you, did he? You were supposed to be his after all, so he must have been confused on how to properly court an omega.”
“No, but…”
“Why don’t you run along with your pack now?” he said, blinking as if I was wasting his time. I gritted my teeth as anger bubbled inside of me.
I exploded, throwing a glass of water in his face.
“Get out!” he roared, his face dripping with the liquid.
My alphas quickly escorted me out of the restaurant, my anger making everything a blur. I could hardly calm my breathingor see straight, even while Wayne was trying to talk to me in the limo.
“Ruby, you need to calm down,” he said while we sat inside.
All I could see was red as I gazed at the window in front of me. I didn’t want to talk to any of them. They didn’t help me back there with Henry.Didn’t they care about Ella's safety at all? Or myself? Didn’t they know how evil Marrok was?
“Don’t you care at all?” I asked, my voice hysterical.
“We do, honey,” said Jasper, rubbing my right thigh while Wayne rubbed my back to my left. Wayne nuzzled his nose between my ear and my neck, purring against me.
I was still breathing hard, trying to calm down from the incident with Henry.
“Relax,” said Wayne, his long black hair brushing against my arm, which made my skin tingle.
