The luxurious Opium lounge restaurant is buzzing with soft music as I enter with my new colleagues from Silver Valley Medical Center. Our large group gets escorted to a private space, which we nearly fill to capacity. “Dr. White, isn’t this place too much for you, I mean, since you're treating us to a meal, Opium lounge should be a financial miscalculation.”An intern doctor by the name Stephanie asks, worry lines across her face.“Can't believe I'm in Opium Lounge!” Another doctor exclaims, a bright smile on her face, as we settle around a large conference-like table. “Last time we came here, it was Silver Valley’s medical founding day. The Alpha treated us to a nice meal and a good fun time,” Doctor Amber, the gorgeous, blue-eyed doctor, tells me.I smile at all of them, maintaining a pleasant expression.Zack Lyle, our surgical team head, adjusts his tie and laughs lightly. “Dr. White, you are young and promising. Looks like you’ve made a fortune over the years. Maybe you have a

The sight of Dominic standing there, like a silent lion, waiting to pounce on its prey, sends a chill down my spine. “Alli, I’ll call you right back,” I say hurriedly into the phone before hanging up.Then I slowly begin to approach Dominic. Maintaining a safe distance of about a meter, I stop and ask him, “How did you find me?”His lips draw back in a very annoying smile. “Did you ever think you could hide from me?”I frown at him, my irritation seeping out. “Hide from you? Oh, please, you're not that important.”He seems to take offence at what I said. So, he takes two aggressive steps forward.Instinctively, I retreat, and that only deepens his irritation.“Must you throw tantrums whenever things don’t go your way?!” he snaps, “How long do you intend to throw this particular tantrum?”My patience, already thin from my long workday, evaporates completely. “I’m not throwing a tantrum, Dominic. I’m not a kid. I’ve made my decision as clear as possible. We are done. It’s over between

Allister’s lips curl with undisguised disdain. His eyes are cold as he looks down at me.“Fool,” he mutters.The humiliation burns through me. Never in my entire life would I have thought that I would be hurting this much just because of a mere Omega, who is, by all ramifications, way below my feet.I stagger a few steps forward, my voice hoarse with desperation.“Jess, baby, please, stop saying all these. Let's go home, Baby. Please come back with me, okay?”Allister immediately steps forward, placing his body between Jess and me. His protective stance is unmistakably defensive.“Get lost,” he orders Dominic.“Does your fiancée know that you’re cheating and disrespecting her this way?” I ask him, hoping to weaponize his engagement.Besides, if it gets out that he's having a secret affair with some low-level Omega, people will talk, and he might eventually leave my woman for me.Rage surges through me. Who is Allister Blackwaters to stand between my mate and me?“Get lost,” Allister B

~Rosie~Seeing Jess here is something I would normally consider impossible.She stops beside the counter at the other end of the overly large reception space, Dr. Roder standing beside her.For a second, I think my mind is playing tricks on me.But no, it’s definitely her.I turn swiftly, angling my body away so she doesn’t see me. The last thing I need is for her to think she’s important enough to rattle me.And Dr. Roder, too. The man has never liked me. During my short time here as an intern, he detested even the ground I stepped on. And after what happened recently at Dr. Emmerick’s office, his distaste for me must have quadrupled by now.For the two short months I was here, he never liked me. Even when I stressed myself more than usual just to prove to him that I'm hardworking, he gave me three official queries for petty reasons.That was why I decided my time at Silver Valley Medical Center was up. I can't keep staying at a place where I’m being suffocated, while I had Westwood

~Jess~It’s been a beautiful weekend spent at Pasos, bonding with Sarah and getting to know her even better.Unfortunately, Monday soon came, and I had to return to work at the Medical Center.A long, stressful Monday had me exhausted and sprawled out on my living room couch by evening.I hear a knock at my door, and instantly, I know it’s Allister. My heart does that ridiculous little skip it only does for him.Quickly, I rush to open the door before he knocks the second time.Allister stands there in dark jeans and a fitted deep olive shirt, one hand holding a stainless steel food flask, the other tucked casually into his pocket.He looks breathtaking as always.“Hello, dear Fiancé,” I call, tilting my waist invitingly to the side.“Hello, Boo Boo,” he calls back. “You look stunning in that pretty dress.”I give him a charming smile and angle to the side to let him in. “If you must know, I wore the dress to work.”He sighs, “I can't wait to put a diamond on your pretty finger.” “Ca
