Chapter Eight

Nikita and I glanced at each other as Eva and a very confused Benji waited for us to answer my aunt’s question, and after a moment or two of pause, my omega mate cleared her throat.

“Max is a werecat alpha,” she explained, and she folded her arms across her chest. “The alpha of my pride. Well, former pride, I suppose.”

“He smelled you, didn’t he?” my aunt guessed. “After you and Jesse--”

“Yes,” I answered before she could finish the sentence. “Once Nikita’s suppressors stopped working, Max’s group of betas stalked us around campus. They chased us even after we got into Nikita’s car and drove off. Luckily, we managed to lose them thanks to Nikita’s awesome driving skills.”

“Oh, my.” Eva’s icy eyes widened, and then she sat forward in her seat. “I suppose that explains why the pair of you ran in so quickly. There’s no chance they followed you here, is there?”

“No.” Nikita shook her head. “Unless they’re better trackers than I’m aware of. I drove us around the town in circles to lose them, and once they were out of sight, Jesse and I came here.”

“Good girl,” my aunt complimented the omega, and then she turned to me. “This presents a bit of an issue I don’t want to think too hard about, but it is a real possibility we have to discuss.”

“What do you mean?” I asked.

“Jesse, Nikita is your mate,” Eva began. “There’s no denying that, but should Max challenge you, you’d have to kill him in order to keep her.”

“Kill him?” My eyebrows shot up. “This just happened to me yesterday. I don’t really know how to fight—”

“You won’t have a choice,” Eva interrupted me in a firm but still sympathetic voice. “Jesse, Max will want Nikita, and he will gladly kill you to take her. She would then belong to him, have to bear his children, and rejoin his pride. If Nikita is pregnant right now with your child, he’ll force her to abort, or he’ll kill your baby as soon as it’s born.”

“I told Jesse that earlier,” the beautiful werecat said. “I don’t want to be Max’s. I want to be Jesse’s. He is my alpha, and I want to make kittens with him.”

“So, Max is an asshole?” My aunt asked to clarify.

“Definitely.” Nikita nodded, and she tucked a lock of golden-brown hair behind her ear. “His family has had many alphas who have led our pride for quite some time… decades. Unfortunately, that’s given Max a big head. He thinks we all owe him our utmost respect and gratitude, but really, he’s just an entitled brat who doesn’t have what it takes to lead our pride. All he cares about is power for the wrong reasons, not what’s good for the rest of the werecats.”

“He sounds like a real prick.” I shook my head and fought against my anger.

Fuck this guy. If he thought he could kill me and then take my woman, he was in for a big fucking surprise. Sure,
