    Summary

    An angsty, Bridgerton-ish/Alpha/Omega/Smutty mash-up, Ben rescues Rey and ends up her guardian.

    The touch of his fingers was featherlight as he slowly examined her inflamed gland, and the pink bruises starting to form across her wrist.

    "How did this happen?" Ben asked, his voice tight, "Did another Alpha touch you here?" he was staring at her now, his eyes black in his face, his cheeks white with anger, "Tell me Rey. Was it Lord Hastings? I should have stopped him ..."

    Rey did not answer his question but interrupted him to ask one of her own.

    "Why did you bring me here?" her voice was cracking as she spoke, "You must have known what would happen, what everyone would think."

    His face grew even more concerned.

    "What did he say Rey? Tell me please."

    "He said..." she couldn't get the words out, her mind was confused by his scent, his proximity, and the fact that he'd raised her wrist to his lips, and she could feel his hot breath against her gland, "He said that they had placed bets how many times..."

    Suddenly the pain in her gland disappeared, and it was because his lips were there, kissing her gently until the angry pulse began fading.
