I threw back my head and cried out Levey’s name as I shot my load all over the side of the counter. He kept up his attentions on me, not even slowing when I whimpered that it was too much when my orgasm subsided.
“Say yes, Wes,” he begged as he stood behind me.
“Yes, yes, and yes,” I gasped, my heart racing a mile a minute. Levey pushed his slicked-up cock inside of me. I wasn’t sure what he used for lube and I wasn’t sure I cared right then. He took me hard and fast, thanking me over and over again for giving myself to him.
He came inside of me with a grunt, my body accepting his, as I moaned at the feeling of his seed filling me. Levey slumped over me when he was spent, kissing my neck and shoulders as his hands stroked the sides of my body.
“I’m so sorry, baby.”
“For what?” I slurred, so tired from all the attention I sounded drunk.
“You didn’t come with me. I was a selfish lover.” He sounded so pained at the idea that I turned my head enough to make sure he saw I was smiling.
“You wore me out so good the first round and I couldn’t recover in time. That doesn’t make you a selfish lover or that I didn’t enjoy every thrust of the fucking you just gave me. I loved it. It was so good I’m going to pass out now.”
“Rest. We’ll take care of the pups and dinner,” he chuckled and gave me a quick kiss. I fell asleep before my head even touched back on the counter, his cock still inside of me, and a big ol’ smile on my lips.
“So two of three, huh?” Tristan teased me later when we were taking a walk.
“Yeah, because it’s not like I ever walked in on all three of your men gangbanging your ass,” I answered with a snicker, making sure to be crude. Sure enough, my friend’s face turned so bright red that I could see it even with the setting sun.
“I do like a good gang bang,” he mumbled. I threw back my head and laughed. Tristan was so huge, so in charge, it was easy to forget he was so young. I mean, he was only twenty-two. It was nice to see that side of him. “So what’s up with the idea to take a walk?”
“I figured since you flew all the way out here to help me when I needed you, the least I could do is show you something new.”
“I do like learning.” I knew without looking that there was a bright smile on his face. It was the truth. Tristan soaked up knowledge like a sponge. “So what’s the gift?”
It was then I realized there was a conversation I had a feeling we were long overdue for. “Tristan, explain to me what our powers are. What do you mean by gift?” I should have brought this up much sooner but since I had a feeling it would change his foundation of what he thought Omegas were, I hadn’t. I’d come to him this damaged, crazy to most, abused Omega.
Why would he have listened to one word I said?
“Um, I’m guessing this is a trick question,” he answered slowly and took a deep breath once we got to the dock. “Once we’re activated as Omegas after we’re claimed we start tapping into energy inside of us and acquiring gifts. Like I started growing and feeling emotions of the people I care about.”
“And you think by feeling the energy of another’s gift you can just pick it up?”
“Yes, but the way you’re asking me this is leading me to believe I don’t have it right.”
“No, not really,” I told him with a shrug. “A special gift that most can’t do is like how we turn into wolves, have wolves inside of us. We can’t meet another type of shifter and suddenly be able to turn into a lion. Our gift, and this is the gift of all Omegas, is to be able to tap into energy.”
“I don’t get the difference.”
“You can pick up other people’s talents because you see how they use the energy. Everything has energy. Think of it like electricity or even auras. You can see differences, feel them, right?”
“Yeah, like Jared has a different energy I feel than Cameron or you.”
“But it’s more than just people.” I sat down on the dock, Tristan doing the same. I touched the wood and closed my eyes. “I can feel this is wood from touch, but if I read its energy like I would a person, I can tell it’s wood too.”
“That’s how you can control water,” he surmised. “You can feel its energy.”
“Exactly. So it’s not that you’re acquiring new gifts, like throwing something in a shopping cart. You learn different ways to tap into the energy around you and do new things with it. Let me show you how I’ve been cleaning up the lake.”
“Drop my shields?”
“Yup, and I’m going to teach you how to channel energy. I can use you like a lightning rod and energy you possess, the energy you can use, I can add to my own.”
“So cool,” he whispered in awe. I took his hand in mine and cast the mental net I’d been using to pull toxins out of the water. At first I just used my own powers, but then combined it with his so he could feel how it worked and the net tripled in size. “I get it.”
“Do you understand how my channeling you is no different than using the energy around you to read people?”
“Yeah, it makes me see what we can do in a whole new light.”
“Good because somewhere down the line Omegas lost that sense of our power. I hear them talk about being able to do only certain things. Our gift of harnessing energy is truly limitless, Tristan. There’s no cap on what we can do. It’s only a matter of what we are able to do
first
and then building on that.”
“No other Omega has explained it to me like this. How do you know all of this, Wes? The High Council is even in the dark as to how it works and what makes us different.”
“It’s normally a shot in the dark or a fluke when a wolf mates with a human woman and they get an Omega. The case isn’t true for me. I come from a long line of Omegas. My father was very old when he had me. He actually hadn’t meant to have a child, hoping the line would die with him. It’s amazing what I remember now that my brain is back to normal from having been claimed.”
“Why? Why would he want to take such a powerful line from the world?” I could hear the confusion and worry in his voice that it might have happened. We kept focusing our energy and pulling the net tighter, getting lots of toxins I couldn’t have reached originally without completely draining myself.
“So his child wouldn’t suffer as he did, as I ended up suffering. He
knew
I would be an Omega and he didn’t want that for his son. But it wasn’t always the way things were before you and Carson stepped in and changed them. My family wrote down Omegas’ histories, generation after generation of every Omega they could find.”
“Seriously?”
“Yeah, there’s a small library of them that I grew up reading. But when my dad died my mom quickly hid it all before she joined him.”
“What do you mean?” he asked hesitantly, turning to the side so he was facing me while we were holding hands. “They went together?”
“Ask me how old they were,” I chuckled.
“How old?” He looked almost scared as he asked.
“Four hundred years old. When mated pairs bond, their life spans go together or one right after the other when they simply die of old age. For Omegas, it’s normally double the life span of a typical wolf if they go from natural causes.”
“You’re telling me if no one kills me or I don’t have some kind of accident that I’ll live to be four hundred?”
“Approximately, yes.”
“Holy fucking shit on a stick,” he whispered and then whistled. “So what happened to you when your parents died? Why was none of this in your file?”
“Because I was special from the moment I was born coming from the line of wolves I did,” I answered with a snicker. “The High Council was scared of me. My power didn’t come at twenty-one after I was claimed by an inner circle. I had the start of my powers from birth. I don’t remember much until I was five or so but by then I was reading people and what most newly activated Omegas go through.
“My parents died when I was fifteen. I stayed with my aunt and uncle. They were good people but they were scared of me too. They let me homeschool and figure things out myself and then when I turned twenty-one, they sold me as per our laws now.”
“But that wasn’t always the law?”
“No, not even close,” I chuckled. “Omegas used to choose who was worthy of ruling the packs. We’d scan energy and pick the strongest, most moral men to be the inner circle. Then we’d pair an Omega, who was willing of course, with them.”
“How did that change? When did it change?”
“About a hundred years before my father was born. I’ve read the history of it. Alphas got nervous of our power and so did the High Council. They started killing off Omegas that they saw as a threat. My grandfather hid but documented it all. It was all swept under the proverbial rug and a few generations later, no one was ever the wiser that was what happened. The High Council wrote laws about how we were to be owned and burned everything about the old ways.”
“So how did your father have a female mate and not an inner circle?”
“My grandfather met a woman when he was in hiding and fell in love. They had my father but they never had a pack. Then when the dust settled and the new ways were put into place, my grandparents passed, and my father wanted to see our world for himself. But he had already mated. The High Council gave him a pass, wanting the power for themselves. So that’s what he was, the High Council’s dirty secret for many years.
“But then most of the old ones died out and he was given sanctuary in a pack to live out the rest of his life with my mother. Of course, they had no clue that he would live over another two hundred years. And then towards the end I came along as a whoops baby, and here we are.”
“I can’t believe we used to be so powerful like that. How did it happen? I mean, if back then we knew how to tap into our energy better than we do now, how could they have killed any of us?”
“No one thought the Council or Alphas would have done something like they did. And even when it started, it wasn’t like today where I could pick up my phone and give you the heads-up that shit was going down. It was five hundred years ago. Inner circles who feared the power of their own Omegas killed them in their beds. Would you ever think Jared, Cameron, and Rhyce would turn on you?”
“No, of course they wouldn’t. How could you even suggest that?”
“I know they wouldn’t, sweetie,” I said gently, realizing the idea alone had him close to tears. “They love you. Hell, some of the inner circles might have loved their Omegas, but they were afraid of what they could do. And fear is a dangerous emotion. One whisper from the High Council back then that their Omega could kill them all and their loyalty changed.”
“That’s why you were so freaked out when we accused you of tricking us,” Bay said quietly.
“Yeah, pretty much. I grew up reading story after story of inner circles turning on their Omegas along with the High Council that’s supposed to protect us all. Wouldn’t you wig out?”
“Yes. I don’t know if I could ever trust anyone ever again,” Levey admitted. “You don’t seem shocked that we’re here.”
“I knew the moment you made the decision to have Adam and Susie watch the pups to come check on me.” I glanced at them, chuckling when I saw matching shocked expressions. “And now you know why I was also so freaked out about you wanting to know everything I could do as if listing my crimes for someone.”
“Yeah, it explains a lot,” Bay said with a sigh. “Are you guys cleaning the lake?”
“Yup and there’s a lot coming too. I think there’s a car.”
“Is that what I’m feeling?” Tristan chuckled. “It’s like no matter how you pull that one part of the metaphysical net it just doesn’t want to move.”
“Yeah, it will eventually, but I worry why there might be a car at the bottom of the lake. I mean, that can’t be for any good reason.”
“The Sheriff knows what we are. I’ll tell him one of our visitors sensed a car. He can decide if he wants to send out a diving team. Can you mark the location?”
“You don’t want us to drag it out?” I asked instead.
“Um, no. That would be really hard to explain. We can say the extra garbage we’ve been picking out was caught in fishing nets or something but yeah, a car won’t fly with that excuse.” Bay snickered as if trying to imagine explaining that to someone.
“Gotcha. Garbage minus car, coming up in about ten minutes.”
Everyone was quiet for a little bit, their minds racing a mile a minute at what they’d learned. I couldn’t help but laugh that when they chose to speak they did all at once.
“Can I see—” Tristan started.
“So how do—” Bay said at the same time.
“Does that mean—” That was Harkin.
And Levey blurted out, “Are we forgiven then?”
They stopped when they realized they were all going at once besides Levey who was so concerned about his question that I decided to answer his first.
“Harkin and I still have a few things to work out first but yes.” Then I turned to Tristan. “We can go look at the books but I am the keeper of them and I won’t ever let them out of my sight or risk them falling into the wrong hands.” I glanced at Bay then. “You can’t protect me, Bay. I protect you guys. It’s my job as your Omega to make you strong and make sure you are protected to lead this pack in the right direction.
