Forget.

A word that means so much, and can be used in so many ways.

I wish I could forget that my mother died when I was only sixteen. I wish I could forget the terror of living alone and on the streets.

Most of all, I wish I could forget the fear I feel over my designation as an omega.

Going through heat is normal, I should be able to suck it up and get through it with anyone, right? But sharing my body when I'm completely vulnerable feels too intimate to share with a random alpha. Unfortunately, I don't have a choice.

My current situation means I need to find a pack I can trust that's willing to help me through my heats. I don't need forever, I need four days every month.

This is my last chance, and I've been forced to turn to an app as my last resort. Date after date, alpha after alpha, nothing is working but I'm running out of time. And when one date turns into an unwanted confrontation with a pack member I hate, I know for sure the system was hacked. There's no way I'd match with him otherwise.

My heat is coming early, though, and my choices aren't mine anymore. Which means this unhinged pack is my only option.

I'll have to forgive and forget, if only for now.

And I know exactly how to end it if I change my mind.
