The dark bond lit up at the command and my lips popped open. “Yes.” The word spilled out before I could stop them. “But… you gotta go.”
He raised an eyebrow.
“I’d have you all in the nest all day all night if you let me,” I whined.
I was slowly coming to the conclusion that my job, as a pack omega, was to make sure I rotated the alphas just right so they all got equal attention.
I don’t think it was an omega thing, since Sin was not like this at all, but I’d come to the conclusion that I could go my whole life being cuddled by one of my alphas.
It made sense that there were usually more alphas than omegas, since none of us would be able to do anything at all if I only had one and I had to cling to him all the time.
“But uh…” I shrugged. “I have Phantom, and you’re supposed to go beat up Karma?”
Vandle grinned. “Could go either way. Wouldn’t bet on his odds, though. Never got pack lead from me.”
“You go,” I said. “The appeal is the most important thing… I promise.” I added, crossing my heart as he looked skeptical.
He straightened as Phantom snorted.
“Anything you need me to look for while you’re gone?” Phantom asked, waving at the books.
“Found what I could on designations. Looking out for anything to do with the red eyes. Could be nothing, but I want to make sure.”
Phantom nodded. “I’ll start searching.”
I frowned, taking a mental note.
I know they were trying to protect me and all that, but I wanted to be the one to help out again.
Just like in the cage…
I pouted as Phantom shot me a startled look, possibly sensing the spike of lust from me down the bond.
Maybe I needed prayerandholy water…?
Possibly.
When Vandle was gone, Phantom cuddled up next to me, diving right into the first text book to help out with whatever it was Vandle was looking for.
I examined the strange black notebook that he’d picked up.
It was hard, peeling it open, as if it had been soaked in water, but something about the challenge drew me to it.
I eyed Phantom, who was turning pages far too fast.
Narrowing my eyes, I looked back at the book.
Gotta beat him to it.
I opened the notebook, taking in the first few lines of handwriting. A very odd book to be found in a library, but nothing in Anarchy was normal.
The pages were wavy with damage, and the words were often washed away completely. But I peeled one page back at a time.
From what I could gather, it was notes from a scientist, documenting tests or experiments. Many didn’t seem interesting, but they all seemed centred around alphas and omegas.
I was moving faster than Phantom, mainly because the amount I had to read was scant due to the damage, so I was half way through when I froze, cocking my head to make sure the words I was seeing were right.
Oh—oh!
