Callum's POV

It's been about a week since we took Ray in, and we haven't been able to find a family for him. I gotten to know Olivia and Bonnie's friends, but Troy hasn't been over again; furthermore, the alluring scent hasn't been back either. I hope we can find Ray a home soon because my heat will be tomorrow, at best. "Callum!" I hear Olivia call my name from downstairs.

I quickly run downstairs to meet up with Olivia. I see Melissa on the couch, Ray laying with Bonnie, and Olivia by the door with a leash. "You wanna meet up with Tony and his dog shifter?" I bark happily in response, and run up to the door. She puts the leash on my collar, and we head out to meet Tony.

We stop at a park, and relax at a bench to wait for Tony and his shifter. While relaxing, I catch the intoxicating scent again. I try to look for the source, but of course my leash is tied to the bench. I whine, trying to get Olivia to untie my leash, but she just gives me a questioning look. Her phone rings, "Hey, Tony... Yeah, Callum and I are at a bench near the fountain... Kay, see ya in a bit."

I roll around, trying to get my collar off, but I just tangle myself in the leash. I look towards Olivia with pleading eyes, "How in the... Hold on let me help." She works on getting me untangled when someone clears their throat. Olivia turns around, "Hey, Tony! He-" She's cut off by a German Shepherd pulling on my leash, trying to get me untangled.

They get me untangled, and I bark happily towards them. The German Shepherd comes closer and sniffs me, 'You smell very sweet, Omega, like honey and lavender.' I lick the side of his cheek, 'You smell like roasted coffee and vanilla, Alpha.' I nuzzle into his side, and he growls possessively.

"It seems that they're getting along nicely." They take off our leashes, and we run off to have some fun in the park. After about an hour of playing, we shift and relax under a tree. "So, Nikolai, how old are you?" He looks at me confused, ears perked, "Why are you asking?" I blush a bit and look away in embarrassment.

I hear him chuckle, "Aw, your too cute for your own good. I'm 18 if you really want to know, but how about you tell me your age?" He leans towards me, and I blush even more. "I'm actually 20, so I'm older than you-" "But, your also an Omega. So cute, I could just take your right now." He licks his lips, and I back away from him slowly.

His eyes are filled with lust, and I quickly kick him in the gut. He falls to the ground with a whimper, "W-Why...d-did...you k-kick me...?" I stare at him in utter shock and confusion. "Are you fucking kidding me? You were overcome with lust, and were about to jump me!" I growl at him angrily. He says something, but I don't catch it.

"What?" He looks into my eyes, "Sorry. My rut is coming up, so I'm starting to lose control." I chuckle slightly, "Probably doesn't help that my heat is tomorrow. Which is increasing my scent and pheromones." We smile at each other, and it feels like it's just us in the world. I hear someone call our names, and look over to see Olivia and Tony.

I give Nikolai a kiss on the cheek, shift, and run over to Olivia. She puts my leash on me, she says bye to Tony, and we start to head home. I look behind me to see Nikolai's German Shepherd staring at me, and his tail is wagging happily. I think I feel something for him, but no matter what I hope to see him again.

Next Day

I wake up to an immense heat in my abdomen, wanting to be filled with pups. I whimper and whine, with smelling the scent of an Alpha nearby. I hear heavy footsteps coming up the stairs, and low growling as well. There is scratching on the other side of the door, and some more growling. "Ray! Get back here right now!" I hear Christian yelling, and more loud footsteps go downstairs.

I turn around, running to the bed, and jump on it to wake up Olivia. The thing is...Olivia wasn't on the bed, and isn't even in the room! Where the hell is she? I run back to the door, and claw at it to be let out. "You're going to stay in there for a while!" I whimper slightly at Christian's words, and curl up in the corner of the room. Why can't I just get out now? I don't want to be in here all day.

Couple Hours Later

Nikolai's POV

Tony and I are rounding the corner towards Olivia's house. Tony was originally going to come alone, but I interfered because I wanted to surprise the Omega. It's a good thing I didn't have to work at the police station today with Tony's mother, Merida. We arrive at the house, and Tony rings the doorbell for someone to answer.

I hear barking, and then a sweet scent hits my nose with much of an alluring factor. Someone opens the door, "Hey, Tony! Glad you cou-" Olivia stops talking, but I'm too bust trying to smell more of that sweet scent. She comes outside, and closes the door behind her.

"What's Nikolai doing here?" Tony gives her a questioning look, "My mom and him didn't have to work at the station, so he wanted to come with me." She sighs, but I tune her out when I see Callum's Border Collie in the window. My leash gets out Tony's hand, and make my way to the window to meet Callum.

He barks at me, tail wagging, but his eyes seem to hold another emotion in them. I tilt my head in confusion at him, however my tail keeps wagging from getting to see him in the first place. He lays his head on the windowsill with a sad expression, and I hear him whimper slightly.

I try to hop up to see what's wrong, but my leash is tugged away from him. I realize Tony is taking me back home, away from my omega. I have conflicting instincts on getting back to omega, or to listen to my owner. In which the latter wins the battle over my omega. I walk away from Callum with my ears and tail drooping as I walk.
