Chapter 2.28

**heartache warning** (nothing too bad)

He wrapped his arms around my waist to grind and ram further inside me. I grabbed onto the wall to keep standing as he kept moving.

"I'm close," I moaned and he began stroking my member. Jayden, for once, pulled out before coming and stroking me until I came.

"I love you," he whispered before we both showered and got dressed. Jayden took my hand and led me out to a sitting area surrounded by the infinity pool that encompassed the back of the house.

I was surprised to see Derrick sitting alone, just watching the ocean further off. He looked over to us and smiled.

"Morning love birds," he said with a smirk before scooting over and gesturing for me to sit beside him. Jayden kissed my hand before letting me go and I sat beside Derrick on the couch. Jayden sat in a small chair near the couch close to me. I looked up when Justin came strolling over to the seating area and glared at Jayden and then me.

He sat down in an assertive way in a chair across from Jayden and near Derrick. "You need to get better about shutting up your Omega. He kept us up half the night crying and moaning."

Derrick gave Justin a glare but we all looked up as James suddenly appeared behind Justin's chair holding plates and napkins. "You've got a big mouth."

Justin whipped around in disgust, "you're a server! You have no right to talk to me like that!"

James stared him down, "I have all right when you disrespect my friend like that." James smiled towards me, "Will's more than you think."

Derrick glanced to me, "we keep hearing that. Do you kill people or something?"

I smirked, "no, I just don't go down easy."

Jayden chuckled, "you'd have no chance, Justin. Just give it up."

I was surprised when James suddenly came over and put a picture towards me. "It took a bit of looking, but I thought you would want to see this." I felt my eyes well as I saw Jane smiling with a strong Beta at her side and two kids with them. I looked to him with surprise, "she quit about a year after you did. He takes really good care of her and she's happy."

I looked back to the picture and smiled, "she's turned into a beautiful mother and wife."

I handed the photo back and James handed it to Jayden, "this is the girl Will saved. He got his head cracked open to save her from being raped by a pack of drunk customers."

Jayden smiled, "you amaze me every day."

"So," Derrick began as he stretched his arms, "what's on the agenda?" James walked away to get our breakfast, as Jayden requested.

Jayden frowned, "I thought you two were leaving today and coming back tomorrow night."

"Our other customer had to cancel so we figured it'd be easier to just stay."

Jayden stared at Derrick, "just invited yourself, huh?"

"Its fine, Jay," I said with a smile. "We aren't staying much longer anyway. I promised the twins."

"So do the kids look like you?"

Jayden smiled as he took my hand that was on the armrest, "they have Will's eyes."

"They look almost identical to Jay," I replied before pulling out my phone. I pulled up a picture taken at the hospital and handed to phone to Derrick.

Derrick's face softened as he looked to them and seemed to be mesmerized. Derrick lean towards Justin and showed the phone to him. Justin barely gave it a glance before grunting and looking away. I noticed Derrick's body stiffen as he quickly sat back normally and handed me the phone with a stiff smile.

"They're beautiful," Derick said quietly and his voice quivered slightly. He clearned his throat, "so how old is the baby?"

"A little over a month."

Derrick's eyes widened, "was there a surrogate?"

I shook my head, "we didn't need one."

"You don't even look like you've carried a child! Let alone 3 and one just a month ago."

I smiled slightly, "I'll take that as a compliment."

Justin's gaze seemed to stab me, "that's the duty of an Omega, Derrick. Of course their bodies recover quickly or they can't serve their only purpose and would have no worth. Don't forget that."

I sighed before staring him down, "did your mom teach you to talk like that?"

He smirked, "she told me the truth of society, Omega. She told me your worth versus ours."

I took a deep breath before smiling to him, "so did my parents, mind you. But I learned they were wrong. The strongest people I know are Omegas."

Justin cackled in a way that told me to brace myself. He was going to mentally hit me, hard. "Oh? Just like that worthless Omega who gave birth to Elijah? His male MOM that killed himself?"

My heart skipped and I rushed to look at Jayden. He was going to get up and defend Elijah and Elijah's Mom, or at least defend me.

I was horrified when he looked to his lap. He's just thinking, right? He's thinking of a good comeback. I waited a minute and he didn't move. My heart ached as tears filled my eyes while I stood, moved past Jayden, and paused. He's going to follow me. He's going to help defend me...right?

When he didn't get up, I took a deep breath, turned away from him, walked over to Justin, and a dark smile filled my face. I got within inches of him and leaned down so our faces nearly touched.

"You're better than us? Hm?" I asked and he smiled, "then I certainly can't take you down, right?"

He stood and moved directly in front of me. "You are nothing compared to us."

I placed my hand on his cheek, making everyone pause while I smiled seductively. "Prove me wrong, then." I let my pheromones explode and Justin trembled while he backed up to try to prevent from attacking a marked Omega. I kicked him in the gut as hard as I could, causing him to fall back and topple over backwards with his chair. I cut off my pheromones before chuckling, "clearly you're much stronger than this weak Omega."

As I stormed off into the house, Jayden called for me to stop. He even released some of his pheromones to try to stop me, but it wasn't going to happen. I was getting out of there, even if I had to crawl to do it.

I rushed to the door, grabbed my shoes off the floor, and walked out. I went in the direction I always saw the employees go and searched for James. Each employee I passed paused and watched me as I went by them near the large area of lodging. After a bit, I got impatient and began asking where he was. Finally, a woman led me over to his room in the employee housing.

I knocked on the door and waited, "boss," I said quietly, "can I come in?"

I heard rustling before he quickly opened the door, "Will, what the hell are you doing here?"

"Wanna play hookie?" I asked with a smile, "well I guess it wouldn't be hookie with a guest. But maybe a personal tour? Show me what you do on your days off."

He smirked, "are you asking me on a date, honorable guest?"

I cackled, "so you in?"

He leaned behind the door and brought out two hats and a pair of shoes. He stuck a hat on my head before putting the other on his own. I followed him in putting on the shoes I was still holding. I then followed him back through the maze of housing and to a small pier.

As James led me to a small row boat, my phone rang. I looked to see it was the last person I wanted to talk to, but knew I should answer.

"Yeah?"

"He didn't mean what he said, Will. He's just a hothead." Jayden sighed deeply, "we should talk about this. I know you're upset with him and we can figure it out together."

I held my breath for a moment so that I wouldn't scream, "hold on." I put the phone to my chest as James looked to me curiously. "Got any beer or something we can bring?"

James chuckled, "yeah and I gotta get sunscreen for your pale ass!"

I snickered, "thanks, boss." I put the phone back to my ear, "I'm going to hang out with James. We can talk later."

"What the hell? You're hanging out with an employee? We are supposed to be spending time together, just us!"

I sighed deeply, "honestly, I can't even look at you right now. Justin pissed me off, but you...you fucked up."

"Fucked up?! I didn't do anything!"

I fought not to scream again, "you're exactly right. You did nothing. NOTHING. You let him talk about Elijah's mom, about me, about all Omegas, like we are nothing." I did my best to not cry, but a few tears escaped. "Its taking everything I have not to bolt, Jayden. I need some time to think and calm down or I'm going to break my promise. I'm going fishing with James and we can talk when I get back. I'll keep my phone on me just in case, but don't call me unless something big comes up."

"Where are you? I'll come get you. We can talk about this and figure it out together. We're partners..."

"Jayden," I hissed, "clearly I'm not getting this through to you. So let me spell this out." I had to take another calming breath before continuing, "I AM NOT going to talk with you right now. You need to stay away from me or our relationship is going to get screwed up. Give me time to calm down or fly me home to the kids. I gotta go." I hung up and smiled to James as he brought some stuff over. I helped carry the stuff to the boat before we went off.
