Jayden\'s hand moved from my arm to my cheek and I glanced up to him. He ċȧrėssed my cheek before leaning down and gently kissing me. His gaze didn\'t leave mine as he smiled, "Will is special," he replied. Jayden looked to the other side of the table, "he\'s my destined partner." Both of them stiffened, "physically and emotionally. I can\'t be with anyone else and don\'t want to be." He chuckled slightly as he looked back down to me in a lovesick way. "The world blessed me when it put Will in my life."

I blushed and quickly glanced down. Jayden chuckled before leaning and kissing the mark on the back of my neck. I shivered before lightly elbowing him.

"Jay, you\'re embarassing."

"Jay?" Justin hissed and I looked up in surprise. He scowled at me and I felt a chill. "You hate that nickname!"

Jayden sighed, "I did, but Will is an exception."

My surprise was reflected in Derrick\'s eyes, "I\'ve never seen you like this." He kept his gaze on me, "you actually love him."

"I told you that."

Derrick scoffed with annoyance as he looked up to Jayden, "you\'ve said you love someone thousands of times. How was I supposed to know you were serious this time?!"

"We live together, have three kids together, and are engaged. And have I ever spent this much money on someone else?"

"Definitely not for a male Omega," Justin muttered as I looked up when James snickered. He set down plates of food for each of us. "What\'s so funny?"

James smirked as he looked from me to Justin, "apologize, sir," he snickered again. "I just worry for you. You\'re picking a fight with someone you really don\'t want to."

Justin huffed, "he\'s a weak male Omega! As if!"

James laughed loudly before ruffling my hair, "don\'t hurt him too bad, kid."

I laughed, "no guarantees, boss!" James laughed more as he walked off. I sat up and began eating as we all became quiet. I could hear the small waves flowing in and out on the shore and couldn\'t stop myself from washing it.

"You okay?"

I looked to Derrick and nodded, "sorry. I\'m not used to such beautiful places."

"We have to be sure to get something for the twins before we leave."

I smiled before looking to the shore again, "you\'re going to get an earful from them once they know you brought me to a beach."

"You\'re kids haven\'t been here before? Where do you usually vacation with them?"

I gulped and looked to my plate. I began moving the food around, "they\'ve never been on vacation before. We never had that luxury."

"So you\'re mooching off of Jayden?"

I was startled when Jayden suddenly sat up and stared down Justin in an intimidating way. "You\'re really going too far, Justin," he hissed. "Will is not like that."

Justin\'s gaze made me feel I\'ll, "so what do you do then? I can\'t imagine someone like you being able to find a job."

I felt the urge to punch him or twisted mess with him. I stood up and dodged Jayden as he tried to grab my hand. I moved away from the table, "I\'m going to walk around." I mumbled and trudged off. Once I got out of sight, I began slowly walking on the shore. I noticed some large shells in the water, so I slipped off my shoes. I took off my shirt and placed it on my shoes in the sand. I went into the water and began my search. I came up to the shore every once in a while to drop off the shells I found.

"What\'re you doin\', kid?"

I looked over to the shore and saw James watching me with a goofy smile. "Getting stuff for my kids."

"Kids? How many you got?"

I picked up the last few shells I wanted before coming up to the shore. "Three," I replied as I put all the shells I collected into my shirt after making it into a makeshift bag. I slipped on my shoes before beginning to slowly walk towards the house. James walked beside me, "twins that are six and another that is about a month."

"And that guy..."

I nodded, "he\'s their father."

"He doesn\'t seem like your type, well at least your type back then."

I sighed, "yeah, he really isn\'t," I quietly replied. "I certainly never expected to be with an Alpha."

He moved slightly closer, to the point our shoulders kept brushing each other. "Are you uh....does he treat you well?"

I smirked lightheartedly, "what? You falling for me, boss?"

He chuckled, "I just worry. I mean, he\'s really elite and acted agressive when I touched you."

I smiled to him and took a pause, "we\'re destined partners."

James froze in place before bursting into laughter and looking to me. "Stop bullshitting me, kid!"

"You don\'t believe me?"

"Those are fairytales, Will. They don\'t actually happen."

I nodded, "I thought so too. Then we met and we can\'t deny it as being real."

"You\'re so full of it."

"Want me to show you?"

He crossed his arms with a large smirk, "sure."

"Control yourself," I replied before letting my pheromones explode for just a moment. James looked to me with shock as I shivered.

"Will!" Jayden suddenly yelled as I heard him rushing out of the house.

"Alphas can always feel Omega pheromones."

"But can they locate an Omega with just a second of pheromones?" I whispered with a wink before letting my pheromones explode for just a moment.

James jumped slightly as Jayden suddenly appeared from the brush nearby. "Will," he said as I saw his face was slightly red and he was breathing hard. He scowled towards James as he began over to me.

I smiled confidently to James, "believe me now?"

James\' mouth fell open before he composed himself and took a half step back. Jayden pulled me into his ċhėst, "what are you doing?"

"Alright, alright! Uncle!" James said with a sigh.

"Jay," I said calmly so that he looked to me instead of staring James down. "I was just talking to him. I wanted to prove we were destined mates, that\'s it."

Jayden frowned to me, "you scared the shit out of me."

"My bad," I replied before looking to James. "I should be getting back. Let\'s talk tomorrow."

James smiled, "I\'m glad to see you found someone that\'ll keep you safe." James chuckled, "otherwise you\'d get yourself hurt with your recklessness."

As James walked off, Jayden took a better look at me, "what\'s that?" I followed his glance to my shirt and handed it to him. He looked to the shells before smirking to me, "they\'ll love it."

I nodded before taking the shirt back, "is that jackass gone?"

Jayden sighed, "yeah. He won\'t bother you anymore." He took my hand and led me back to the house. As we came into our room, Jayden took the shirt from me and placed the shells on a dresser.

"I\'m covered in sand and ocean water. I\'m going to go shower." I said with a smile before going through the large doors near me.

It took me a minute to figure out where the shower was as it was only a slightly lowered part of the floor with a single pane of glass across from the shower head. I slipped off my shoes and my clothes before starting up the water. I began humming as I enjoyed the water pressure, but jumped as something touched me. I turned around to see Jayden chuckling and I felt my face turn hot.

"Sorry, I thought you heard me."

"I was spacing out," I mumbled but paused mentally as I realized he was completely nude.. "Oh, I\'ll finish up."
