Capítulo 9: Yes or No?
(SASHA)
His muscles tense and a flush rises on his neck. He takes a step back and anger glowers through his pretty eyes. "Are you making fun of me?"
Im tempted to laugh, but I know better not to. It is clear that he is terrified of me. I have to admit thiugh that I love his courage of standing up to me. Unfortunately for him, that's like a puppy taking on a bear. "No, i'm serious."
"W...What? Why?...I don't...husband?" He sputters.
"Yes, I need a husband. An omega. It's urgent even."
His brows knit close together. "I'm not following."
I roll my eyes. "Are you serious? I need a husband, right away. Its obvious your life is a mess. You are pregnant, alone and unclaimed. With a snap of my fingers I can make an instant change for you. I trust you wont be foolish enough to refuse."
"You can't seriously be asking me to marry you. And you thought this was the best way to?"
"Look, before you get excited, know that this is purely business. I dont know if you know much about my family, but my father is dying." I swallow hard.
He flinches. "I heard that he was sick. I just didn't know that he was dying."
"And I don't need your sympathy." I scowl. "What I need is an answer."
He flushes again. "You just told me your father is dying. Of course, you have my sympathy."
"Whatever." I sigh. "Now, what's it gonna be, yes or no?"
He looks bewildered. Of course, I understand why. I would be too. But im offering him a lifeline and he could help me with my issue. Fair trade if you ask me.
"Why would you want me to be your husband, me...of all the people?
"Because I dont have time to woo anyone. You'd know the score. All I need you to do is to play the part of my doting omega around people until I can secure my position as head of the Triple Triads. It doesn't have to be true. You can drop the act when we're alone. Once I've secured my position, we wont even have to live together. We can drop the charade in five years or less."
"How's that? From what I heard, the Adonis men were faithful to their partners.
Heat rushes to my face. "Yeah, they are. When they marry for love."
I notice how his face twitches. His lips curve but he says nothing. It is the truth. Ours would be a marriage of convenience. I wouldn't tell hin a lie just so he can feel good.
"All I want is for my men to trust me as head of tge Triple Triad Syndicate. Once they do, we'll have no business invading each other's spaces. We can divorce quietly. No one will even have to know. The important thing here is for me to take control and make other syndicates aware of my authority."
"Once I've established that you've been a truly faithful and helpful omega to me, I'll see to it that you're well compensated for it. I'll make sure you're taken care of financially for the rest of your days."
"If I've been a truly faithful?" He crosses his arms and tilts his head to the side as if he's contemplating something. "What if I fall short and don't live to your expectations? And who even gets to decide whether I've been a good omega or not?"
"Me." I smirk.
"Well, I prefer someone from the outside to be the judge."
"Oh you do?"I ask condescendingly. We haven't even acquainted with each other well enough and he's already making demands. My lips curve into an evil grin. "Too bad."
"Yeah? So what happens if I dont live to those expectations?" He asks, shifting uncomfortably.
"Do I really have to spell it out for you Tyler? I'm sure you know how that will go."
"Then no." He immediately jerks as fear overrides his face. " Im sure there are many omegas who'll fit just right for you."
"Of course. But the omegas you talk about have options don't have. I mean, you're desperate. Alone. Pregnant. Unclaimed. Should I continue?"
"You don't have to be happy about it." He scowls.
"I'm happy I'll have my problem solved if you agree." I laugh. "Look, I don't want an omega, snd I sure as hell dont want to marry, but here we are. So what's it going to be?"
"And what's so pressing about it, why do you have to get married?"
"Tyler, I told you my father is dying."
"Still, what's the hurry for?"
I sigh. "It makes me appear mature. More stable." I say heavily, frustration gnawing at me.
"Well, I dont think I want to get married to the head of Triple Triads. You are criminals, murderers. You are thieves."
"Well, yes." I say. For a monent I want to tell him that theres more to the syndicate, but then again I see no need to explain it to him. The mafia has built quite a reputation for itself, so I don't justify anything.
"But your life would be easier. You wouldn't crawl to beg fir peanuts anymore." I point to his rounded belly. "See, that baby you're carrying will be taken care of. You wont have ti worry much about your finances anymore. People would practically beg to do your bidding."
"And what makes you think I need all of that?"
"Who doesn't need respect? See, the Adonis name will protect you. That fool at the diner,he wouldn't pull that with you if he knew you are my omega."
"You know about that?"he looks surprised.
"I do. Miles has been watching you. I told him to find me some desperate, suitable omegas. You're one of the omegas he found."
"But I highly doubt that you find me suitable."
"You know, if this were a real marriage, you wouldnt be considered suitable. Right now I just want someone who can play the part. Someone who can obey orders and live the lie."
"Oh, that's flattering." He whispers.
"Another thing I told Miles to consider in my potential mate was someone who has no involvement with any other town syndicates whatsoever.You'd be suprised to how hard it is yo find such a person, but you wouldn't know, would you?
"No, I wouldn't. So if you know I've been avoiding your likes, what makes you think I'd want to get involved with the mafia now ? He pauses for a while.
When he doesn't get my response, he continues. "And worse, Sasha Adonis' omega? Won't that just put a target on my back?"
"Depends. Sure, my enemies wouldn't take pleasure on grabbing anyone around me. But doing that would breed war. Yes, they like to brag about it,but in truth, they don't want war. It ruins business."
He seems to be understanding me. One moment he seems to forget and rubs his belly unconsciously. This beauty thing! His hair is long,shoulder length and he's got those gorgeous blue eyes with long lashes. My cock twitches in my pants by just a look of him. But our arrangement is staged. He doesn't have to sleep with me.
"Where's your baby's dad?"
