BREAK ME KNOT: An Omegaverse Quarterback Romance

BAITING THE OMEGA

Declan's POV

This girl was going to drag me to hell, but I’ll be damned if I didn’t take her with me.

I'd watch Maeve strut onto the dance floor with the random beta in tow and done nothing.

Maeve. I loved the way her name rolled around on my head. Good to say, and it would be great to moan in the throes of passion.

I watched as she danced with him, and her eyes had captured me too. Daring to break eye contact. To say something.

I had promised myself I wouldn’t fall for her tease. But watching another man run his hands all over her was driving me crazy.

The moment I saw his hands rest on her waist and pull her in against his body, I broke. The glass of whiskey I’d been nursing fell to the ground with a shatter, and I paid no attention to how people went silent.

The beta that had been holding her turned to see who was causing the commotion, and when his eyes fell on me stalking towards him, they widened, and he released Maeve from his hold. He fled.

Smart guy.

Maeve turned to me with a defiant look on her face.

“What do you think you’re doing, Declan?”

Without giving her an answer, I pulled her away from the center of the room towards the wall and held her against it. I could feel the eyes of everyone on us, but they didn’t matter. Only she did.

“What am I doing? What were you doing letting another man feel you up?”

“I don’t belong to you. I can let whoever I want to feel me up. Take a hint Declan.”

I ran a hand over her arms and watched satisfied as goosebumps rose on her skin. I could smell her arousal, and knew every alpha could too. I was suddenly overwhelmed with the urge to carry her away and lock her up for my eyes only.

I settled for pulling her into me and burying my face into her hair. Her scent drove me crazy. She smelt so sweet, so safe, like home.

“Does his touch make you feel like this? Does his scent make your p***y purr, Maeve?”

She gasped, and I watched, satisfied, as a blush crawled onto her face. Without a word, she had given me my answer. No one else made her feel the way I did. She could deny the way we reacted to each other with her words, but the body didn’t lie.

She wanted me.

Oh, don’t get me wrong. She was playing very good at playing the angry woman, but held this close against me, she kept sniffing my chest and a sound close to a cat’s purr was emanating from her.

As an alpha, you hear the older alphas tell you an omega’s purr was the most potent weapon, but it didn’t really dawn on you till you held one to your chest and she was purring against you.

“I’m not dignifying that with an answer.”

“You don’t have to. You're purring and rubbing against me. That's enough of an answer, Maeve. Don't deny it. You want me just as much as I want you.”

She groaned and pushed me away.

“What’s with all you alphas? Why do you think you’re too hot s**t to be rejected? I want you to leave me alone. How hard can that be?”

“I don’t want to. There's something between us, and I want to know what it is. I want you. It's that simple.”

She was giving me a scathing look, like she didn’t know what to do with me. She ran her hands through her face and into her hair. That hair. I had a vivid image of wrapping it around my c**k and jerking off with it.

I was so hard for her. I watched a smile bloom on face, and I had a hunch she was up to something.

She walked up to me and pushed me to the wall. Her hands were very busy things running across my chest. She pushed them under my shirt and ran them all over my abs.

A dazed expression appeared on her face, and she bit her lips unconsciously. I couldn’t help the self-satisfied smirk on my face. I knew I had a great body. Her hands trailed up slowly; they were on my chest, and then she ran them against my n*****s.

I hissed and watched her with jaded eyes. I bucked, and her eyes fell down to my hips. They widened when she saw the line of my c**k against it, and when she raised those eyes back up, I saw the heat in them.

The people around us were trying their best to not watch us, but I couldn’t deny that we were putting on a great show. I pulled Maeve closer to me till her body was flush against mine. She wriggled in my arms, and the friction her body was causing against my c**k made me grit my teeth.

What a little minx. She knew exactly what she was doing to me. And I was helpless against her wiles. I didn’t even want to be saved.

She brought her face closer to mine and brushed her lips against mine lightly, but it was enough to make me want to rut against her right now even with all the people around.

Then abruptly, she pulled away and left me panting against the wall.

She walked back till there was about 6 feet between us. Then she spoke.

“Are you trying to publicly claim me, Declan?”

I couldn’t help the laugh that escaped me. Oh, my little minx. She'd seduced me to the point where I almost lost my mind so I could lower my guard. And then she ambushed me with this question.

In our world, if an alpha claimed an omega, it was the most binding marker between them, even more potent than a marriage. Marking each other with their bites was going to be the final seal for the claiming but publicly claiming each other was the first step.

I licked my lips and ran the back of my hand against them.

I looked Maeve in the eyes and smiled. The room fell silent, and three people gasped as I answered, “Not yet.”
