Tilly

He does.

Because there was something about Jackson’s attention, his eyes penetrated my body and this felt different. Not like a one-night stand without repercussions. My body was responding to him, to these alphas. My perfume was spiking, yet when I was around other alphas, it stayed hidden without a problem. It was as though my body knew and wanted their attention, but my brain revolted. It told me to get the fuck out of there.

And I should.

But I couldn’t.

“Do you have questions?” Sandy asked as my eyes averted from his arms to his full lips to his eyes. Eyes that were staring back at me.

I chewed on my lip as my fears rushed back. Knowing how close I was to fuck an alpha.

I swallowed, and he smirked.

I blinked hard and inhaled a deep breath.

“Are you okay, Tilly?” Sandy asked.

I nodded. “I need to go. I feel a little nauseous.”

“Of course I can finish up here,” she said, smoothing her hand over my arm. “I’ll come and find you.”

“Thank you,” I said to the two alphas. “Sorry about this.”

I swallowed when Jackson gave me a quick nod.

I grasped the sink in the restroom and stared at my reflection in the mirror. Splashing water over my wrists and throat hadn’t helped and my flushed skin still appeared as pink as it did ten minutes prior.

I closed my eyes and took in deep breaths, just as the door opened wide. Sandy smiled as she stood behind me, running a smoothing hand over my back.

“Are you okay?” she asked.

I smiled and nodded. “I hate presentations, talking in front of people. That’s why I didn’t want to go for the manager’s position and was happy to stay an executive.”

“They wanted to hear from the director and an executive. Be grateful you aren’t a manager.”

“Are they thinking of getting rid of middle management?” I asked.

She shrugged her shoulder. “Time will tell. Anyway, they are taking us for dinner. They want to have an informal discussion.”

”Us?”

I was just a beta. Fake, but they didn’t know that and alphas rarely wanted to have dinner with us.

She smiled. “A couple of hours of your time and I’ll make sure we compensate you for it and give you a driver to take you home. Is that okay?”

Dinner with two alphas emitting their scent. Dinner with a man who made me orgasm and wanted to do it repeatedly.

No!
