from the stool and approaching the mirror.
    “Should we cut?” the host whispered to his microphone.
    “Keep it running.”
    Will pressed a hand to the glass, amazed the Beta rose from his seat and mimicked the gesture, as if he knew Will was there. Their hands met, touched, with the exception of the mirror between them. Will could hardly breathe.
    “I can smell you, even all the way from here, Omega,” the Beta said. “You smell so fucking good. Fuck, I can even hear your heart, beating so excitedly from here. Tell me your name.”
    “Will. My name’s Will.”
    “Will. Perfect.” Will jumped, hearing glass smashing a second later. A bloodied fist appeared through the crack. With a growl, the Beta made a giant hole, large enough for him to squeeze through. Will didn’t have the heart to tell him he could have walked around the glass, but he sure made for a dramatic entrance.
    The audience held their breath. So did everyone else but them. Will had never met anyone who would do something so drastic, simply just to reach him—plain, unwanted and mediocre Will.
    “Why do you want me? I’m so ordinary,” Will couldn’t help but ask.
    This didn’t feel real. It felt like he’d been transported to a movie or romance book. But when the Beta gripped a handful of his shirt with bleeding fingers, Will felt the tug, knew this was real and it was happening to him.
    The Beta’s touch grew gentle. He spread his fingers wide, pressing his hand against Will’s chest. “Wrong, Omega. You’re fucking extraordinary. Hear that? Your heart tells me the truth.”
    Will couldn’t stop staring. Up close, the Beta was huge, imposing almost, but lust and longing hit Will twice as bad. With trembling fingers, he lifted the Beta’s hand to his lips and licked away the blood.
    The Beta swore and Will blinked, noticing his feral golden eyes and his fierce wolf looking back at Will and his beast with unconcealed interest. Will couldn’t forget what this Beta called him. Will never had anyone refer to him as ‘mine’ before. Warmth suffused his limbs and went right to his chest and dick.
    “I don’t know your name yet,” Will blurted out loud.
    “Kris. Now, why don’t we get the hell out of here?” Kris grinned.
    Will smiled back, twining his fingers with Kris’.
    “Y-you can’t do that. The program’s not over yet,” the host protested.
    “But it is.” Kris turned to the cameras, still rolling. “Thanks to the organizers for helping me find my mate.”
    Kris tugged him along, but Will was happy to follow where he would lead him.
    Never before had Will been certain of another man, another Alpha…until now. They might have just met, but Kris admitted he’d fallen for Will the moment he saw his video. Will uploaded that video, tossing his bait and hoping something would bite. But Kris, he blew Will right out of the water and Will couldn’t wait to find out what would happen next.
     
     
     

Chapter Three
     
    “We’re riding that?”
    Kris chuckled when Will saw his Harley. Damn. He’d been waiting so long to meet Will face-to-face. All that waiting was worth it, because Will was better than he had imagined.
    Sweet and sensitive, Kris could smell Will across the mirror. All of Will’s responses tugged something inside him, his heart strings maybe, and that meant something. Kris never let anyone in his heart before, the way he was about to with Will.
    Walking to the back of his bike, Kris took out a spare helmet and tossed it to Will, who caught it with trembling hands. He could smell the fear and excitement on the Omega and Will was so easy to read. Never before did Kris felt such overwhelming protective and possessive feelings towards someone before.
    Will put his helmet on, but it was a size too big. Chuckling, Kris walked up to him. Will stilled, licking his lips and Kris grinned, helping him buckle the strap on. Will clearly liked what he saw and Kris was the same way.
    Will trusted him.
    Kris swore to never
