Rhett tends to have that effect on people, even when he’s dressed.

“Thanks for inviting us into your nest, darlin’.” Rhett sweeps his gaze over the room. “I didn’t expect it on the first night. But I’m damn glad that you’re comfortable enough to share your room.” He swaggers closer. “Such a good Omega for us.”

Who is the tease now?

Paige stands, stepping toward Rhett like she’s being irresistibly drawn to him.

Instantly, I miss her touch.

“I want you with me.” Paige stops a whisper away from Rhett; she must be able to feel the heat of his skin from the shower. “All I had was your voice. I’d begun to think that’s all you were.”

Is she challenging my Alpha?

Big mistake.

Maybe she’s a brat like me.

Rhett’s eyes sparkle with amusement, as he bares his fangs. “Oh, I’m so much more than just a voice, darlin’.” He skims the back of his knuckles down her cheek. “Didn’t you learn that when I ordered you to finger open your sweet pussy until your legs were weak? Until you were trembling? Until you were so wet with slick that you were begging me to let you come?”

Paige’s eyes are glassy. She is panting.

She leans closer like she is trying to nuzzle him.

But he pulls back from her.

“Chief,” Luca tilts his head, “tonight is about sleeping with our Omega. It is in the clinic guidelines. It ain’t sexual.”

I jolt at the casual way that Luca says our Omega.

I stare at him in shock.

What’s going on here?

“I know.” Rhett gives a smug smile, pulling back. “That’s just giving our Omega something to think about while she sleeps.”

Paige whimpers with frustration.

The sound of Paige’s phone ringing from the oak nightstand is jarring in the tension of the room.
