Middle Child Syndrome - Chapter 214

Chapter 214: Ch 214: The best Opportunity
The alpha threw his head back at Rika’s question and let out a thundering laughter as soon as his mind registered the question Rika had asked him.

Even after he calmed down a little bit, his snickering did not stop.

If anything, it became even louder after that.

“Come on! Don’t be that crude to us. This place is far from a pimp’s house. What kind of pimp-house takes such good care of their omegas and provides them first-class facilities and decent pay?”

“I assure you that all this is done on a legal contract basis, and all these omegas are happy to be here for us.”

Rika did not believe a word of what she said. There was no way anyone would be happy to be treated as a sex toy without any feelings.

Some of these omegas looked like they had been here for some time, and others looked ready to die.

One omega even met Rika’s eyes, her gaze begging Rika to help her.

Unfortunately, Rika has not yet had the power to help anyone. She was also in a desperate situation.

“Stop looking around and sit down. We will wait for the boss here. Once he ‘tests’ you out, we can finally get you back behind these bars where you belong.”

Rika’s body shuddered at those words.

‘Tsk, I would have taken care of you if not for this gun aimed at me. For now, I should bid my time and reach a negotiation with the boss. That is the only way I can walk out of here unharmed.’

Emily’s name would work here, but Rika did not know how much the boss would believe her words.

At this point, Rika depended on her luck to escape.

…

“What’s next on my schedule for the day? If we are done, should we head back? The boys said that they had a nice surprise for us.”

The boss quickly put on his jacket as he headed for the door. He was in a good mood because of the news his workers had given him.

They managed to ‘convince’ Suzie Goodwill to come and visit him. It was an achievement worth celebrating.

‘If things go right, I will soon have a Goodwill omega. I will not need to bow down to anyone. That arrogant price, Emily Steinz, would have to bow down to me. Ha, I cannot wait for that to happen.’

The boss was happy, but he could not ignore the strong whiff of pheromones that washed over him as soon as he left his office.

He had not taken even a few steps when someone stepped in his way and blocked it. The boss could only look up at the taller alpha in shock.

“Y-You! What are you doing here? I have not done anything to betray Emily Steinz yet. Please, you have to believe me. Please don’t kill me.”

The boss’s mood did a 180-degree turn as soon as his eyes fell on Damian Rodric.

The dominant alpha was as dangerous and scary-looking as he had heard. The way he looked at the boss made him feel tiny and insignificant.

Despite them being alphas, there was a clear difference between them.

“D-Do you want something with me, Sir? I was about to head toward my meeting, but I can postpone it if you want me to.”

The alpha promised the younger, but Damian did not spare him a glance.

Instead, he reached out his hand to place it on the boss’s shoulder and force him down.

“Your lackeys took something of mine, and I want it back. She better not be harmed, or no one will survive my wrath. Do you understand?”

Damian Rodric’s voice made the boss shiver in fright. Under the alpha’s pressure, his whole body felt stiff and useless.

He could not even breathe, much less move, when the alpha held on to him like this.

“I asked you a question that I want answered. Do you understand what I am asking you?”

The man asked once more, and this time, the boss finally found his voice and spoke up.

“I-I see! Looks like my b-boys made a mistake. Sir, please accompany me and punch those fools yourself. I am sure that a lesson would do them good.”

The boss nervously tried to clear himself of all the guilt and insisted it was his lackey’s fault.

Damian Rodric was ruthless, and getting on his wrong side was a one-way ticket to hell for most people.

The boss wanted to avoid being in the same ditch as the others he knew. That was why he quickly flattered the alpha.

Damian did not answer him, but he was far from happy with how things were shaping up.

‘I thought my boys captured Suzie Goodwill, not a random no-name Mister Damian cared about. Or maybe the one he cares about is Suzie Goodwill. They had known each other forever. Tsk, to think that this man always presented himself as interested in that omega and liked to flaunt his relationship with Emily Steinz, but at the end of the day, he is an alpha.’

‘The one he likes has to be an omega as well. No alpha can go against their instincts.’

The boss was crafty, so he wanted to use this opportunity.

He did not want to lose Suzie Goodwill, so he planned to hook Damian up with another omega in heat.

A dominant alpha would not be able to resist an omega’s heat. And Damian Rodric would be forced to give up as well.

After this, the boss will have enough evidence to smear Damian’s reputation in society and blackmail him into working for him.

‘What a perfect plan I cooked up. I am sure that things will go as I plan if I am careful. This is perfect. I may never get such a good opportunity again in my life. Let’s make the best of this opportunity and get ahead in life using Damian Rodric.’
