Chapter 156: Worry About Me
(WESLEY)
The smug expression on Danny’s face makes me even more uncomfortable. "Papa and I have been thinking of some plans to help expand our syndicate. Actually, we could rival syndicates as big as the Triple Triads if we go through with this move."
"Go through with what move?" I demand my disquiet growing.
"I think that even you Wesley, if you stop for a moment and see it through, you will see that it is a good idea." Papa stands with a grunt to help himself to a glass of whiskey. He sips the liquid, avoiding gaze.
"What scheme have you both cooked up now?" I demand.
"See, you aren’t good for much, Wes. But Christopher Heizer is taken with you. He has offered to merge if you agree to marry him."
My eyes go wide as horror shoots through me. "W...what?" I can’t even begin to mask the fear in my voice. Christopher is almost twenty-five years older than me and is one of the most repugnant alphas in the city. He is a vicious, despicable person who started sniffing around me before I was even of legal age.
"You have to admit that this is a win for you too, son." Papa says as he holds his tumbler of whiskey up to light. "He won’t care that you can’t give him babies, he already has two sons with his first omega."
I swallow heavily against the lump in my throat. "You mean the omega that he beat up and tortured? The one who mysteriously disappeared?"
