Status Updates From His Reclaimed Omega (The Mo...

The older omega's face contorted into a stiff smile and he reached up to pat Kent's head. "It's fine. You're in the circle," he said in an overly pleasant tone before turning to rejoin the gathering. Kent blinked. "What's the circle?" "It's the group of people he can't kill because he loves them."

"The car loan people are upping their game."

Connor remained as well, if only because the nurses and doctors didn't dare ask him to leave.

"Is everything alright?" Kent asked, going to Nathan's side. "I came as soon as I could." "We know," Connor said dryly, holding up his phone. "You forgot to hang up, so we all got to hear you hyperventilating on the ride over."

"If you want to survive Hurricane Duke, I suggest you both shower in lava because you smell like Nathan."

To be fair, it was a far more compelling case than the English language was capable of making.

"I've never been anyone's first choice, Nathan."

"I know I don't deserve you, and I'd hoped at least I would have time to convince you the right way, but if being your escape plan is all I can be, it's worth it."

He was fairly certain he was about to die, but at least it was a humorous way to go.

"I know how that is," Connor said with a wistful sigh. "One moment, you want all Alphas to bow to your will, the next, you get all tongue-tied around one of the big dopes." Nathan blinked. "That's not exactly how I'd put it, but sure."

Adam eyed the newly built stairs. "If I climb these, am I going to die?" "That depends on if I push you or not."

Finding himself at a loss when it came to the omega. Down was up, right was left and God help him if anyone asked him for the time of day.

"Good. That's... good. If you have any problems, just tell me." "Problems? Like what?" Like another alpha breathing the same air.

"I have six children. You learn to be chill, or you throw yourself into a volcano."

"What am I supposed to do there anyway, stare at cows?" "I wouldn't recommend it. During my limited time there, I learned they stare back."

"Everyone else kisses my ass, but you don't." "You're damn right I don't. I know how long you slept with a nightlight, you're not fooling me with the hardass routine."
