"Spread your legs, little omega slut," he said to me. "I am sorry, there are rules here, sir. We do not sleep with customers here." "Who made those rules?" he asked, whirling the wine in his glass. "The owner of this place," I replied, irritated by all the unnecessary questions. "Who is the owner of this place?" "Mr. Killian Cabello." I replied tersely. This man was arrogant and wanted to defile the rules to show me he could do whatever he wanted. He took out a card from his pocket and handed it to me. "I usually do not give out my card to the likes of you but look at it." I looked at the card and saw his name written boldly on it. He was the owner of this place. He made those rules and is willing to break them now? My eyes widened at the realization. I looked at him. "You are Killian Cabello?" He smirked devilishly. "Now, spread your legs, Omega."

I turned off the car engine and got out of the car. My assistant, Colby stood beside the car with his hands clutched in front of him. I was dealing with a hangover and tossed him the car keys.
"Tell them to postpone any meetings I have at the office. I need to rest today," I said to him while walking towards the front door.
I was hungover from all the glasses of drinks I had the previous night from our drinking spree at the opening of my new club. All I needed was a cold shower and a long, long sleep and I was getting it for the whole of the day; work can wait. I removed my jacket and tossed it at him as well.
"Er... Alpha..." Colby called following me.
"Colby if it doesn't involve sexy women, don't tell me about it."
"It's actually..."
"No, no, I am not attending to anything today, my head needs to rest."
"This is about..."
"My signature on that document? I am sure it can wait till tomorrow." I put my hand on the doorknob and twisted it.
"Your mom is here," Colby blurted.
I froze, closed the door, and turned to face Colby. "What?" He nodded. "How did she get here?" I moved away from the door and started walking back to my car. "What did you tell her?"
"He told me that you went out there last night to have meaningless association with things and people that won't benefit us in any way," my mother's voice stopped me right in my tracks.
I looked forward and saw my mother giving me such a disapproving look. Her expression was the definition of disappointment. Slim nose upturned, devil red lips twitching. Her hair was tied in a tight bun on top of her head, giving her that stern look. I sighed, knowing what was coming next. Honestly, my banging head is not up for this discussion.
"You want to sneak away from your house because you heard I was here?"
"That is because you do not give me peace of mind, mom."
"There is no peace for the wicked, Killian."
"You are quoting the bible now?" I shook my head. "I am not ready for this discussion, mom. Can you come back later?" I turned and started going back to the front door.
"You are almost thirty, Killian," she said following me. "Does it not bother you that you do not have a mate yet?"
"I am only twenty-five. There is no way that it is even close to thirty."
"What's the difference between five years and now? Look it's time to stop playing around and sleeping with all these girls and stop making our family and pack look bad."
I stopped and turned to look at her. "I do not make our family and pack look bad."
"How can you say that when you cannot even start your own family? How will you run a pack if you cannot run a family?"
"I have Bella and we are good."
"You and I know that Bella is still here because of the influence of her image." I walked into the living room and my mother followed me, bent on making her point. Colby trailed quietly behind us. "You should find your mate and get a family started."
"Maybe I don't have a soulmate. Have you thought of that?"
"The moon goddess blesses everyone with a soulmate. Or have you rejected yours without letting us know?" She turned sharply to Colby. "Are you guys hiding anything from me? Where the heck is Angelo?"
Colby hiked his shoulders but remained mute. My mother sighed and turned back to me who was going up the stairs now. She walked up following me to my room. We always have this discussion every time my mom visited, and I never give in to finding a mate, but my mother would never give up. This topic of finding my own mate after my father's death has become so constant that I always dread my mother's visit.
She knew I had a human girlfriend, Bella, whom I vibe well with. Her father was one of our biggest investors, but they were humans, and we cannot get too involved with them. I did not have issues raising a family with Bella. I had waited for my mate since the first time I shifted, but despite all my travels, I did not find her. It frustrated me at first, especially when my mates and even my younger cousins found their mates and I the future Alpha could not find one. But with time, I got tired of searching and just took it that the moon goddess did not bless me with a mate.
No one can have it all anyway. I was handsome, charming, and rich. I could get any woman I want by a snap of my finger, so maybe I was not destined to have a mate.
"Killian answer me," my mother's voice brought me out of my thoughts.
"I told you I do not have a mate yet."
Arguing with her was fruitless and my head was killing me. I got to my door and reached for my knob, but she came in front of me and put her hand on the knob, blocking me from going into my room.
"I won't let this continue. The pack members will start losing respect for you. Not only for you, but for Cabello as well. I need you at my place on Thursday. That might change your mind and might make you stop playing around."
"What do you mean change my mind? Mom, am I going to choose my own mate."
"Thursday, 5:30 pm, at my place," she said and left.
I stared at her in confusion as she descended the stairs. What the heck was she talking about? I looked at Colby who was standing calmly in a corner. He offered no explanation. I waved him off and went into my room. Once I got inside, I stepped out of my clothes and went straight into the shower, letting the cool water from the shower calm my nerves.
KARLA "Let me get this straight. It was all fake?" Ana asked, staring steadily at me. I nodded, and the expression on her face deepened my guilt. I had been longing to share the complete truth with Ana for quite some time, but I hesitated, fearing she would cause trouble and what Killian might do. So, two days after Killian confessed his love for me and treated me like a princess, I scheduled an appointment with Ana, determined to reveal everything. Ana let out a sarcastic chuckle and averted her gaze. "I can't believe you kept this from me, Karlee." "Ana, I am truly sorry. I couldn't bring myself to tell you due to the seriousness of the situation." I reached across the table to grasp Ana's hand, but she withdrew it. "I am very disappointed in you. How could you hide something like this? I have been there for you since day one. How could you even think of doing that?" "Ana, please, I said I am sorry. It wasn't planned; besides, I know how impulsive you can be.
KARLA I stirred, yawned, and stretched those three to four seconds of morning grace before reality hit me. My eyes snapped open, and I glanced to the other side of the bed, finding it empty. Panic welled up as I recalled the events of the morning after our first night together. Killian was absent from the bed, meaning he was awake and waiting to yell at me for seducing him again. Slowly, I sat up, grateful he wasn't in the room. I threw off the blanket, ready to put on my slippers, when the door swung open, and Killian entered, carrying a tray. His smile stirred my heart, leaving me in awe. I watched, unsure if I was still asleep and dreaming or if I was fully awake. "You are awake, sleepyhead," he said, setting the tray on the nightstand. I was still in shock and merely stared at him. He smiled at me again, aware of my uncertainty. "I made you breakfast; you must be tired after taking care of me last night." I was too stunned to respond. I never thought a day when Ki
KARLA Killian did not return until Jenny woke up. She had gained some strength and insisted on going back to Cabello's house in the city, despite my pleas for her to stay at the villa in the country with me, but she wasn't ready to face Killian just yet and needed to be with Chloe. Jenny assured me she was fine and urged me not to worry about her. One of Killian's men escorted me back to our country house, where our honeymoon was meant to take place. Flora had prepared dinner upon my arrival, but I had lost my appetite due to the day's events, so I headed straight for the shower. As the water cascaded down my body, I recalled the events of the day, especially Killian's emotional breakdown, wondering if our relationship could ever be normal. I couldn't comprehend why he was so conflicted. But I would have to endure this emotional turmoil until our pup was born and had resolved not to expect anything from Killian until after the birth; then, I would move on with my life. I was gratef
KARLA I stood in the corner of the private ward where Jenny was put, watching Killian pace up and down the room, frustrated and furious. I could imagine his surprise finding out that his cousin, whom he loved so much, was dying soon and the hurt he felt that she kept it a secret from him. When he turned to face me, I could swear I saw his eyes glistening. I wanted to reach out, take his hand and comfort him, but I could not get the courage. I was still not sure of our stand after my outburst. "Why didn't you tell me?" he asked. "I... I don't think it was in my place to tell. She wanted to keep it a secret, so—" "Until when?!" he barked, making me flinch. I could not blame him for breaking down like this. I had been shattered, too, when I found out about Jenny's sickness, and Killian had known her all his life. According to Jenny, they grew up together, and Killian saw her as nothing other than a sister. "Killian I am sorry that she kept it a se
KILLIAN "Fuck!" I cursed and bolted from my seat. "I will kill that bastard with my bare hands." "Is everything alright?" Colby inquired, coming after me. I felt like breaking down in the middle of the bar. What was Chase doing with Jenny and Karla? I knew he did not run into them. He followed them; he was stalking Karla and knew exactly what he was doing. "Alpha Killian, can you tell me what is going on?" "That bastard Chase is with my mate and cousin. He has them in his car. I swear, I will kill him if I ever lay my eyes on him. Get the car ready and take me to Graceland." "That is like one hour, fifteen minutes from here." "Do you think I don't know that?" "But you have Jayden following them." I had totally forgotten that I asked one of my men to follow them. Jayden was a strong warrior but couldn't defeat several of Chase's men. As I walked towards the car, Jayden sent me a message. He was updating me on their whereabouts. It turned
KILLIAN Colby sat quietly across from me in the bar, watching me gulp down one of the several bottles on the table. When he couldn't take seeing me wasted any longer, he grabbed the bottle from me. "Alpha Killian, what happened?" "I have called Angelo; he will be here in a moment," I said, waving him off and searching for another bottle to down. "I am sure if you wanted to speak to Angelo alone, you would never call me. The last time I saw you like this was—" "Stop." I knew what he wanted to say and was not ready to hear it. "What happened at home?" he asked, staring me straight in my eyes. I eyed him and looked away. Sometimes, I wondered how Colby was able to read me so well. It annoyed me, but he always offered me great solutions, especially when Angelo was too busy with his toys to attend to me. "It's Karla," I mumbled loud enough for Colby to hear. "What about her? Is she opting out of the contract? You only got married yesterday
