The Omega's demonic alpha

CHAPTER 3

CHAPTER THREE: THE ENIGMATIC, ALLURING RICK.

“Do we all understand the plan?”

“Yeah.”

“Got it. Although, we all know Champ here is mostly brawn and little to no brain, so you might wanna run it by him one last time.”

“Hey! Watch that mouth, or you’ll be running it on my fist. This little-to-no-brain has got over a decade on you.”

“So? You want me to bow down and call you dad from now on?”

“Enough, you two.” Mariah turned a glare to Champ and Byron, who were occupying the rear seat of a sleek-looking car currently on the highway. “We don’t have time for all this. Honestly, Champ. Even Nigel acts more mature than you.” She then turned her gaze to the driver’s seat where the dark-skinned teenager was driving. “Can you believe these two?”

Nigel simply shook his head. “Let’s just go over the plan one last time, okay?”

Mariah sighed out of her growing frustration. "Listen up. Based on the information our client provided, our target, Rick, is a frequent visitor at Simpium, a high-end brothel. This is where we have the best chance of taking him down. I have paid the owner for a one-night slot and she has guaranteed me a chance with him tonight as a Fresh Lady of the brothel. Once I've got him well distracted, we weaken him then kill him."

Byron clapped his hands with enthusiasm. “Sound easy peezy!”

"I don't think so," Nigel interjected. "Let's not forget this guy's exact threat level is unknown. All we know is he's twice as dangerous as our last target, at the very least."

The atmosphere in the car became tense at Nigel’s words. There’s nothing they could do about it now; they’ve accepted the job. They were quite confident in their ability as a team though. When you have a natural silver witch, a powerful alpha, a were-jaguar, and a master illusionist mixed into one unit. You can’t help but feel you’re unstoppable.

Half an hour later, they get to the brothel – a large building with dazzling light that gave life to the night sky. It was a gorgeous building, but they were not here for sightseeing. They immediately dispersed, opting to enter the establishment from different sides. They shouldn't be seen together.

Mariah entered the building only to be met with a beautiful woman who was a senior lady of the brothel. The woman led Mariah to a private dressing room where she was to change into the distinct outfit of a fresh lady. Mariah stripped herself and got into the outfit. Minutes later, she glanced at herself in the mirror with slight shock and embarrassment. The outfit was a completely transparent white gown that hugged every inch of her body. the thin lace panties and even tinier bra holding her most private areas. Her hourglass figure was only further accentuated by the jewellery she was adorned in. This was a lot for her, and the senior lady checking her out from behind with an assured smile and a nod only made her blush harder.

Another lady walked in to inform her that Mr. Rick was there. Mariah was quick to ask for a bit of time to gather herself and the senior lady obliged. Once she was alone though, Mariah pulled out an earpiece from her purse she brought with her. She slid it to her left ear and clicked on it.

“Is everyone in place?”

“Roger that.” The answer came in chorus.

Mariah then removed the earpiece before leaving the dressing room. She found her way to the main stairs and she took in the lively atmosphere of Simpium as she began descending. The customers were mostly men who were being attended to and taken care of by the pretty products they had purchased for the night. Some of them had already begun kissing the ladies of the brothel, their impatient hands roaming beneath their dresses.

“Holy sh…Who is that?”

“Look at that smooth cocoa body. Damn! The things I wanna do to her.”

“Those supple breasts are begging to be let out. f**k, why have I never seen this girl before.”

"Fool, look at her dress, that's the newest fresh lady of the brothel. Damn, she's sexy."

Whether it was the desire to lick her skin or to have her full lips moan out their names, Mariah heard it all, and it took a lot of willpower to maintain her passive but graceful pose as she continued descending the stairs. She was internally grateful when she found the senior lady was waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. She took the older woman's outstretched hand as they faced the gathered crowd of mostly men who were openly thirsting over her face and body.

“It is such a prideful moment for me as a senior lady to see the product of our fine establishment can still elicit such intense desires from our customers.” The senior lady boldly spoke out with a dazzling smile. “Sadly, I must let you all know she has been reserved by one of our most important benefactors.”

The crowd let out their disappointment, but the senior lady ignored them as she began to direct Mariah towards the VIP section of the brothel. Once they got there, she pointed to the left room.

“He’s in there.” She then turned around and brushed her slim hand over Mariah’s shoulder. “Do well to keep our reputation high.”

Mariah watched as she walked away. She felt like she had betrayed this lovely sister as her intention here might stain the establishment’s reputation. She internally apologized before she headed into the room.

The room was dim-lit by the purple light overhead. Mariah glanced around the spacious but empty room until her silver-coloured eyes spotted a man in high-waist trousers and a silk shirt looking back at her with eyes that gave her a slight chill. This was Rick.

"Ah, the fresh lady I was promised tonight."

Mariah couldn't help the gasp that escaped her lips. The man's voice reached her ears with a deep yet soft tone.

Rick smirked at the reaction. He raised his hand to gesture with his finger. “Come here, young lady. Don’t be shy.”

Mariah reminded herself of the role she was playing right now. She gave a coy smile as she slowly walked over to the man, putting on a seductive show as her hip swayed. She stood right before the sitting man. It was then she saw his feature well: A lean but chiselled tan-skinned face, the lustrous wave of black hair reaching his shoulder. The man then stood up, turning Mariah's gaze upward as he towered over her. He held her stare through the sunglasses he had on.

“They were right; you are a beautiful sight to behold.” Rick moved his hand to trace a finger under her chin.

Mariah’s eyes widened slightly at the thrill the light touch gave her and she quickly looked away. What is this? Why was her body reacting this way?

“Your omega scent is quite intoxicating.” Ricked chuckled with a slight croak. "Though they didn't tell me you were this cute too." He then slowly grabbed her chin, making her look at him as he took off his glass to reveal bright hazel eyes that shone with great depth.

This man was powerful and Mariah could feel it in his body language, but this wouldn’t dissuade her.

“I’m gonna kiss you now.” Rick saw that Mariah made no objection and he tentatively placed his lips on her.

The kiss was slow at first, innocent even, until it wasn't. They had simply started off sucking each other's lips when Rick's finger slowly slid up to gently caress Mariah's breast. Mariah had let out a gasp, not knowing Rick would take the chance to plunge his tongue into her mouth. Then it became heated. Every touch from Rick conveyed a contrasting gentleness and increasingly untamed hunger. He slid his other arm to grab her waist, pulling her closer before he caressed her ass.

Mariah's hand slowly slid up the man's torso, feeling the well-toned abs and stopping at his chest. His body seemed to be brimming with power.

Who the heck is this man?
