Read Omega’s Possession by Jessica Hall Book 2 Chapter 59 – Harlow POV

A month later.

Sparring with Leo, I am drenched in sweat, my clothes sticking to me like a second skin when he finally stops, glances at the clock on the wall, and pulls his whistle from his pocket.

The whistle blows, signaling the end of the class, and murmurs amongst the other Omegas break out through the enormous room. A few even let out sighs of relief as they moved toward the bathrooms to change and leave. Leo had really made us work tonight.

Exhausted, I flop back down on the mats and Leo walks over, peering down at me with his hands on his hips and an amused expression on his face. “I would get up if I were you. Training may have finished, but you know someone will be here soon to pick you up.” I groan, quite content with dying on the mat. I had a good run. I would risk their wrath.

“Come on. You don’t want your mates to think you’re slacking.” Leo scolds, and I roll my eyes at him and sit up. Leo chuckles at my reluctance to move. Every muscle aches, I was saturated in sweat and knew my ass would hurt when I peeled my ass up off the mat.

We were at the Omega refuge, Leo was now one of the self-defense trainers here, helped with the self- defense night classes, and Thane has made me attend every single one, not allowing me even one day off.

Despite the rest of the Omegas here only having to train three days a week, Thane made me train five with no exceptions. Leo ran three of those classes, Raidon and Rhen, alternated between the other two days.

Leo offers me his hand and I grab it, letting him pull me to my feet. “Elaine told me Charles got your medical license reinstated?” I question, and he shrugs as we make our way across the room to the bleachers.

Pushing the hair back of my face that escaped my ponytail, I reach for my drink bottle, snatch it off the bleacher, and drink some. “Charles got me a job at the hospital, but I turned it down,” Leo tells me, drinking his own before moving to pack up the mats.

I follow, helping him clean up and pack all the equipment away.

“So you don’t want to go back?” I ask him.

“I can do more to help here, besides I already asked Thane if I can handle the medicals here, as well as the training. So it is extra work.” Leo tells me with a shrug. He grabs one of the blue mats, dragging it to the closet, while I remove the velcro tabs on the next when he returns, bending down to grab it.

“Because of Emily?” I guess, and he smiles.

“Yeah, she loves it here. She signed up for night classes here and Elaine got her a job at the surgery as a secretary four days a week.” Leo tells me and I smile.

“Anyway, go on. One of your mates will be downstairs waiting. I’ll finish up here.” he tells me, taking the mat I was dragging to the closet from me.

Walking out of the gymnasium, I move down the long corridors, searching for the artist and moving toward the recreational room. I had no intentions of going to meet Thane, and I knew Thane was coming to pick me up today.

Rhen, Leon, and Raidon all made excuses about why they were unable to grab me because they were already here.

Walking into the recreation room, I find the painter almost finished and Raidon sitting on the couch with Scarlet, who was happily munching on her hand like it was the tastiest thing in the world.

Leon and Rhen are helping clean up and setting warning signs out, so nobody touches the paint. Leaning over the couch, I kiss Scarlet’s cheek and she blows raspberry spit bubbles before going back to gnawing on her hand.

“Where is mine?” Raidon pouts when I stand up. He lifts his face up and I smile, leaning down and kissing him.

“Lowe, I have been out the front for ten minutes now!” Comes Thane’s voice through the mind link. I ignore him, and Raidon gives me a knowing look.

Walking over, I watch the painter finish up before he packs away everything. When he is done, I pay him only to hear Thane becoming angry through the mind link.

“Harlow!” he barks through the mind link.

“Oh, he is going to be pissed,” Rhen laughs and Leon walks over to me. “Hm, you smell so divine, all nice and sweaty for me,” I push him away as he nips at my skin, knowing if he kept going, it would alert Thane that they were here too.

“Harlow!” Thane growls in annoyance. I knew I was pissing him off because he rarely uses my name, always calling me by the nickname he has given me.

“I can’t wait to show your mother tomorrow. She’ll love it.” I tell Raidon, and he nods, looking up at the giant mural on the wall.

“Yeah, he did an amazing job,” Raidon admits, his eyes scanning it, he smiles. “He’s gonna love it,” Raidon assures me and I nod, hoping he was right because it took me ages to think of.

“Do I need to come in there? What are you doing?” Thane snaps through my mind link. I could feel his annoyance.

“Right, you better have a good excuse for bloody ignoring me!” he snaps and I feel through the bond that he is pissed off. I could also feel him getting closer, making me giddy.

“You seriously think you are funny right now? Where are you?…. Wait, I can feel you’re close. Why are the others here?” Still, I ignore him when he opens the mind link to all of us.

“I swear if you all run from me, I will turn your asses red,” he growls at us, earning a laugh from Raidon and Rhen.

“Maybe I like being spanked,” I retort.

“Oh, I wanna watch you spank her,” Leon chimes in.

“Your ass will be the first one over my damn knee for lying to me!” Thane growls at him.

“Like to see you bend me over your knee,” Raidon mocks.

“Don’t tempt me, Raidon,” Thane growls and Rhen laughs and I look at him to see him reach down and grab Scarlet. Raidon reaches for her, wanting to use her as a shield, knowing he is safe from Thane while holding her.

“Nope, you antagonized the beast. You can deal with him.” Rhen scolds him.

“Because you’re a chicken, little brown noser,”

Raidon taunts.

“No, I just know better!” Rhen chuckles.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Ah, why are you in the rec room?” Thane asks, and I peek out the door to see him walking down the corridor. I turn my attention back to the wall and I laugh when I see Leon trying to take Scarlet from Rhen before realizing he wasn’t going to get her so hides behind Rhen. I lean on the door frame when I hear Thane growl as he comes up behind me. His arms wrap around my waist, and his lips press to my neck.

“You’re in so much trouble,” he growls, nipping at my mark. “You all are- ” Thane’s words cut off when he lifts his head to see the wall.
