Fifteen minutes later, Wally joined Vadim, the boys, and Ingrid in the gardens behind Grimbold’s estate. Upon arriving, the boys sprinted to sit on either side of Ingrid, who relaxed beneath the shade of a large maple tree. Like Vadim, she was slender and beautiful, but where Vadim was wild and ferocious, Ingrid had a quiet, mysterious grace.

Once the boys were settled, Ingrid lifted her head and gave Wally a smile, which Wally nervously returned. There had been female Pedigree omegas in his cloister, but despite their careful training, none were as refined as she. Even in yoga pants and her loose ice-blue t-shirt, Ingrid exuded quiet power and control that felt unfitting of an omega. It gave Wally pause.

“Hello, Wally.” Ingrid’s smile grew. “It’s nice to finally meet you. Will you sit?”

Wally recognized her voice—it matched the one belonging to the individual he’d been forced to talk to when he was being held captive in the Brand lair back in California.

Fear spiked in his chest, but didn’t last long. Before he could stumble backward and try to flee, Beatrice, who’d followed them outside, nudged his calf with her snoot and rubbed all along his leg. It was as if she knew what he was feeling and had stepped in to tell him that all would be right.

“Um, hi.” Wally didn’t dare look at her. He squatted down to pet Beatrice, who soaked up his love for a hot second before toddling o to go piddle amongst the da odils.

Without a dog to distract him, Wally rose awkwardly to full height and scratched the back of his neck. “Does um, does the master of the house know that you’re here?”

It didn’t feel right to address Grimbold by his name in front of other Pedigree. What would they think of him if they found out how he’d broken down and made a scene that one night in front of his new master? Wally sucked on his tongue, suddenly certain of the purpose of their visit. Vadim and Ingrid were here to reprimand him in Grimbold’s place.

“He invited us.” Vadim brushed by Wally and sat on a decorative stone bench nestled beneath a grove of lilac trees.

He crossed his ankles daintily and slid his hands down his leopard-print leggings to cap his knees, then tilted his head to the side and devoured Wally with his eyes. A wry grin stretched his lips. “I can certainly see why.”

“Daaaaad, ” the boy in the red t-shirt grumbled.

“Stoooop! ”

“I’m not doing anything, Dmitry,” Vadim shot back.

“Are too,” the other boy—Nikita—argued. “You’re try’na uvidet' yego dushu. ” He stuck out his tongue as if doing so would cement his point as truth.

Vadim sighed and muttered something in Russian that made the boys giggle.

Wally glanced between Vadim and the boys, then at Ingrid, who seemed at ease with both youths using her as a backrest. All of them seemed entirely too comfortable with each other. Wally wished very much that Beatrice were back with him so he could distract himself with her care.
