It was simply instinct, I told myself time and time again. He was an alpha and I was an omega. It was only natural that my body was reacting to his presence.
I tried to take shallow breaths, but it didn't seem to help. Instead, it just seemed to stoke a warm feeling deep inside me that simmered with heat.
I tried to disregard the fact that I knew it was desire. It had been some time since I'd taken an alpha's knot.
The urge to mate with the nearby alpha was strengthening the longer I was in his presence, but I was confident that I could control it and keep my mating urges under wraps.
I had always done so with Thranar, but he'd had other ways to make me want him. He'd use a medicinal injection whenever I was particularly uncooperative which would force me to lose complete power over myself until I begged him to take me as long and hard as he wanted.
