Read Omega’s Possession by Jessica Hall Book 2 Chapter 23 – HARLOW’S POV
An hour passes, and we learn that the fire started in the rear loading dock, they were waiting to get clearance to gain entry into
the building, so they could check the servers for any footage to see what started it, all the fire brigade could tell was that it was
started by some accelerant.
Yet when we don’t hear back from them, I end up dozing off, only to be woken by a knock on the door. Sitting up, I see Rhen
going to answer it and my eyes flutter shut until I hear a familiar voice. Bree. I instantly sit up, hearing her coming down the
stairs.
“Bree, you can’t just walk down there,” Rhen scolds, and she stops on the stairs. “Sh*t, sorry I forgot,” “She’s fine,” I sing out. I
recognized her voice. Although I am grateful, I was awake because I nearly attacked Thane earlier when he crept up on me
while I was sleeping.
“I’ll wait here. Sorry, Harlow, I am not good with the whole Omega nesting thing,” she calls out, sounding rather embarrassed.
Checking Scarlet, I quickly climb out of the den and grab one of my mate’s shirts, tugging it over my head. Looking up the stairs,
I see Bree had stopped hesitantly at the top of the stairs, and goosebumps rise on my arms having her scent waft down here.
I make my way up the stairs, her scent nagging me as it filtered into the den, making me itchy. I needed to get her away from it, I
may rationally know who she is, but that was my space, It made me on edge knowing her scent was mingling with my babies and
mate’s scent.
By the time I climbed the stairs, she was leaning against the kitchen counter. She was wearing Jeans and white top and black
I could tell she spent the night crying, her face blotchy, and hair tied back in a messy bun. “Sorry, I tried to go home, but I couldn’t
without Tal,” she suddenly bursts into tears and Rhen stares at me awkwardly, not wanting to deal with a crying girl. He nods to
her, wanting me to deal with the tears. I felt terrible for her, but at the same time was also angry at Tal for the mess he caused.
“I’ll make coffee,” Rhen announces, grabbing some mugs down. I take her to the living room, and Rhen brings coffee out when
Scarlet starts crying downstairs. “She’s fine, I’ll get her.”
I watch Rhen leave and Bree tells me about Thane and Leo visiting her, also about Corbin and Curtis being her father.
Everything was a mess, I then told her about the fire while desperately wanting to go snuggle back in my den, but knew I couldn’t
just kick her out before eventually we both fell asleep on the couch watching TV.
However, a couple of hours later, I woke to the sound of Scarlet crying. My breasts aching, and I yawn, jerking awake to find
Bree no longer on the couch. Getting up, I find her in the kitchen with Rhen, who was holding Scarlet with one arm trying to heat
up breast milk, I wander over to him taking Scarlet, and flopping my boob out uncaring Bree is right there, my breasts were
throbbing. This Chapter is provided by
“I just made it,” Rhen sighs, holding up her bottle. I wave him off, and he sighs, tipping the wasted breast milk out, (( Coffee?” he
asks Bree, and she nods, “Tea,” I tell him before I ask him if he has heard from Raidon and Leon, he nods and Bree nudges him
out of the way making the tea and coffee while Rhen leans on the counter watching me where I sat on the stool next to the island
bench.
“Yeah, they found the servers on the top floor were intact and are now combing through the footage, they are hoping to be home
soon,” he tells me. I nod just as Bree sets our cups down.” Are you staying the night? Or I can have Raidon run you home when
he gets back, save you calling another cab,” Rhen asks her.
thinking of messaging Tammy to stay with me, she should knock off in an hour,” Bree tells me, glancing at her phone screen, and
I nod. As much as I liked Bree, I wanted my house back to myself.
Rhen once again asks more questions about Tal and what she knows of Corbin, but her story
remains the same as what Thane already told us, yet I felt sluggish, and I could tell Rhen was also exhausted because he kept
shaking himself awake and yawning which in turn made me yawn more.
I was now fighting sleep as Scarlet unlatched, and I tucked my boob away. Rhen instantly holds his hands out for her, and I give
her to him, busting to pee.
Racing to the bathroom, I empty my bladder that is screaming at me, yet as I wash my hands, I feel vertigo wash over me and
yawn. Trudging back up the steps, I can’t stop yawning, extreme fatigue washing over
When I climb the last few steps, I blink, wondering why Rhen is on the ground.
My mind feeling sluggish. My mind taking a few seconds to catch up to me.
“Scarlet?” I asked, like I was expecting her to answer me. I blink, trying to work out what is wrong with what I am seeing,
confusion smashing me.
“Rhen? Rhen!” I screech, running over to him and rolling him over in panic, thinking he’s crushing our daughter. However, when I
roll him over, I find his arms empty when I see feet stop next to me. I look up to find Bree standing there with my daughter in her
arms.
“I could have been you, this,” she looks around the room. “I could have had this, family. A pack, but nope, I had to be the defect,”
she says, smiling down at Scarlet. My eyes lock on to my daughter in her arms when her eyes flit to mine.
“He’s not dead. I drugged his tea. Just taking a nap,” she says so casually while my heart raced in my chest at my daughter in
her arms as I stand up—-My mate at my feet.
“Bree?” I hold my hands out for Scarlet, my hands trembling, but she pulls away from me.
Alphas, just gotta put on the tears, bat your lashes, and smile and instinct kicks in, and they think Omegas are weak,” she
laughs.
