MATED TO THE PSYCHO OMEGA HIS FOUR DOMINANT ALPHA

Louis's POV "Louis, your f*****g eyes are closing!" Jake shouted, his knuckles turning white as he gripped the dashboard. "Do you want to get us killed?" I grinned, my gaze fixed on the dark, winding road ahead. "I'd love to listen to you, Jake. Really, I would. But I happen to enjoy dancing in blood. Whoever crosses my path tonight had better pray to whatever god they believe in." Before he could respond, I swerved. THUD! SCREEECH! The car lurched violently before coming to an abrupt stop. All three of us jerked forward, our foreheads nearly colliding with the windshield. For a moment, silence filled the car. None of us had bothered with seatbelts. Fucking idiots. "What the hell was that for, you stupid arse?" Jade snapped, rubbing his forehead. "Guys..." My smile slowly faded as I stared through the windshield. "I think I hit something." I pushed open the driver's door and stumbled into the cool night air. Jake and Jade followed, their sleepy expressions disappearing the moment they spotted the body sprawled across the asphalt. "She..." Jake squinted at the motionless figure. "She looks human." I turned to him. "Congratulations, genius. Your eyes work. She's human because she is human." I knocked my knuckles against his skull. "Ow!" He clutched his head. "That's twice! Are you trying to give me a concussion?" "It might improve your intelligence." Jade yawned, looking between us and the woman lying on the road. "Can we deal with this quickly? I'm exhausted, and I'd quite like to sleep before sunrise." "Let's call the police," Jake suggested. I stopped pacing and stared at him as though he'd just suggested setting himself on fire. "The police? Seriously?" "Louis, we hit someone!" "Thank you for that groundbreaking observation." I dragged a hand through my hair, irritation bubbling beneath my skin. "Think about it, Jake. What exactly are we going to tell them? That three drunken idiots went for a joyride, hit a woman, and then decided to stand around admiring their handiwork? You want to spend the next few months behind bars?" "That's not—" A weak groan interrupted him. We all turned. The woman's fingers twitched against the asphalt. Slowly, painfully, her eyelids fluttered open. "Please..." Her voice was barely audible. "Please help me. Just... call an ambulance." Something inside me stirred. Not guilt. Not sympathy. Annoyance. I crouched beside her, studying the blood trickling down her forehead. "Well, what do we have here?" Her frightened eyes found mine. "Please..." I dragged my thumb through the blood on her forehead, watching the crimson stain spread across my skin. Then, with a careless flick of my wrist, I smeared it against the sole of my leather boot. "Sorry, sweetheart." I rose to my feet, dusting off my hands. "I'd love to stay, but I have beauty sleep to catch up on." You could just call an ambulance, you know. Lou's voice drifted through the back of my mind. My wolf sounded uneasy, his disapproval impossible to miss. She needs help, Louis. I rolled my eyes. And you need to learn when to mind your own business. She's going to die if you leave her here. Then I suppose she should have been more careful about where she chose to lie down. Lou fell silent, but I could still feel his uneasiness lingering beneath the surface. I ignored it. "Come on, babies!" I called to the boys, heading back towards the car. "Seatbelts this time. I don't want either of you complaining about your precious heads again." Jake stared at me in disbelief. "You're seriously leaving her?" I paused beside the driver's door and glanced over my shoulder. "Unless you've suddenly developed a medical degree, I suggest you get in the car." Neither of them moved immediately. Then Jade grabbed Jake's arm and pulled him towards the passenger side. I slid behind the wheel and slammed the door shut. The engine roared to life. In the rear-view mirror, the woman's body lay motionless beneath the streetlights, a dark pool of blood spreading around her. I looked away. The blood on my shoes was still fresh. I had no idea that one careless decision would eventually come back to haunt me. Or that, one day, I'd give anything to turn back the clock. But by then, it would be far too late. --- A Few Hours Earlier... "Louis, come to the club with us!" Jade flopped onto the edge of my bed, his expression so dramatically pitiful that I briefly considered throwing a pillow at his face. I continued filing my freshly manicured nails into sharp points. "No." "Why not?" "Because I don't feel like it." "That's not a reason!" "Then consider it a personal tragedy." Jake appeared in the doorway, arms crossed over his chest. "Just leave him alone, Jade. The last time we took him to a club, he nearly killed two guys for dancing too close to him and smashed half the bartender's liquor inventory." I glanced up, feigning innocence. "They were annoying." "You threw a bottle at someone's head!" "He ducked. Problem solved." Jake pinched the bridge of his nose. "You're the reason that bartender threatened to ban us for life." I smirked. "Are you still upset about him?" Jake's expression hardened. "Upset about who?" "The bartender. You know, the one you definitely don't have a crush on." "I don't have a crush on him!" "Of course you don't." I nudged Jade, who immediately burst out laughing. Jake glared at both of us. "You're both insufferable." "And yet, you love us," I sang. "Unfortunately." His lips twitched despite his best efforts to look annoyed. I laughed and finally set down my nail file. "Fine. I'll come. But if anyone annoys me tonight, I refuse to be held responsible for what happens." "That's precisely what I'm worried about," Jake muttered. I slipped off the bed and headed for my closet. After a few minutes of searching, I settled on a pair of dangerously short black shorts and a fitted fishnet top that revealed just enough skin to make an unsuspecting Alpha lose his train of thought. I examined myself in the mirror and adjusted the hem. Perfect. Most people believed Omegas were supposed to be soft, submissive, and sweet. Those people were f*****g idiots. I'd taken down Alphas twice my size and left grown men regretting the day they'd ever crossed my path. Being an Omega didn't make me weak. And I'd happily break anyone who thought otherwise. BANG! BANG! BANG! Someone pounded on my bedroom door. I scowled at my reflection. "If you'd learned to knock like a civilised human being, I might have opened the door!" Another series of impatient bangs followed. "Keep that up, and I'll stay in here all night!" "LOUIS!" Jade shouted from the other side. "WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE!" "Then leave without me!" "YOU SAID YOU'D COME!" "And I've changed my mind!" I heard Jake mutter something that sounded suspiciously like a threat to abandon us both. Smiling to myself, I applied one final touch of concealer, checked my reflection, and strutted towards the door. I'd kept them waiting long enough. When I stepped into the hallway, Jade's face lit up. "Finally!" "Try not to sound so desperate. It's embarrassing." He rolled his eyes. Jake merely pointed towards the stairs. "Move. Before I change my mind and leave you here." "Such a loving brother." "Such a terrible headache." I blew him a kiss. He ignored it. --- We took a taxi to the newly opened pack club on the edge of town. The ride was relatively quiet, but my wolf had apparently decided that silence was beneath him. Do we really have to go? Lou asked, pacing restlessly at the back of my mind. Yes. Why? Because I want to. That's a terrible reason. I smiled at the passing streetlights. Since when did I start needing your permission to enjoy myself? I'm serious, Louis. Something feels wrong tonight. My smile faded for half a second before I forced it back. Then perhaps you should stop imagining problems. You never listen to me. And yet, here you are, still talking. Lou growled softly. One day, your arrogance is going to get you into serious trouble. Then I'll deal with it when it happens. It's your funeral. Not if I bury you first. He retreated into the back of my mind, grumbling. I settled against the seat, satisfied with myself. Problem solved. The taxi pulled up outside the club a few minutes later. Even from the pavement, I could feel the heavy bass vibrating beneath my feet. Neon lights flashed above the entrance, illuminating the crowd gathering outside. Jade was out of the taxi before it had fully stopped. "Let's go!" "Try not to get arrested," Jake called after him. "No promises!" I laughed and stepped onto the pavement. Jake turned towards me, his expression suddenly serious. "Listen. When you're done, meet us at the gate. And text me before you disappear somewhere with a stranger." I raised an eyebrow. "Do I look like I need a babysitter?" "Considering your history? Yes." "f**k off, Jake." "Love you too, Louis." He disappeared into the crowd before I could come up with a sufficiently insulting response. I followed, pushing through the entrance. The club was packed. Music thundered through the speakers, lights flashed across the dance floor, and the air carried a mixture of cheap liquor, sweat, and the heavy pheromones of young Alphas. I wrinkled my nose. Subtlety clearly wasn't their strong suit. I moved through the crowd with deliberate confidence, feeling eyes follow me as I passed. A few Alphas approached, their smiles too eager and their scents far too strong. "Can I buy you a drink?" "No." "Come on, beautiful. Just one." I gave him a flat look. "Did I stutter?" He stepped aside. Smart choice. I had no interest in entertaining strangers who mistook my appearance for an invitation. After a few minutes, the noise began to irritate me. I needed air, and preferably a cigarette. I slipped through a side door and stepped into the narrow alley behind the club. The music dulled behind me. Finally. I reached into my pocket, searching for my lighter. Then I heard the door click shut. Before I could turn around, a rough hand seized my wrist. Another grabbed my shoulder. My back slammed against the brick wall hard enough to knock the breath from my lungs. I sucked in a sharp breath. A powerful Alpha scent flooded my nose, thick and pungent.
