A Knotty Deal

When my brother's life depends on me paying his debts, I find a way to make it happen.
Even if it means selling the only thing of value I have left.
Myself.

Alphas are willing to pay a lot to have a night with an omega, especially one that's untouched. They aren't concerned with how willing I am, because one way or another, they'll make me submit.

I'm going to do this, for my brother's sake.
I'm going to sell myself to the highest bidder.
I am not going to admit to the secret thrill running through my veins, and I'm definitely not going to read more in Leo's actions than an alpha's typical lust and possessiveness.

I'm going to make it through the night, pay off my brother's debt, and then I am going to forget this ever happened.

If Leo lets me.

Will I survive such A Knotty Deal?
