Compulsion: A Myth of Omega Standalone

“You will not speak in such a manner,” he thundered. “You will address me as General and only speak when you are spoken to!”

“I will be executed before sundown tomorrow,” she snapped back. “So I will speak as I choose during my last hours of life.”

“No execution has been arranged yet. Not until I have carried out an investigation.”

She chuckled again, and this time it stirred all manner of filthy thoughts in Roclan’s mind. “You have a corpse, and you have the culprit. There’s no further investigation to be done.” She paused. “Unless you need to prove yourself to your superiors?” Her head tilted and she snorted. “I’m afraid this case isn’t much to grow your career on, baby General. I’ve already admitted I did it.”

“Quiet!” Roclan roared, infuriated that she used the word “baby” to refer to anything about him. He tensed every muscle in his body, resisting the urge to storm over to her. Of the two of them, she was the tiny one, and she was imprisoned, but behaved as though she had power in this situation. Strangely, her taunts sparked both arousal and annoyance in him, but he forced both emotions down. “Your outrageous lack of respect has been noted,” he said sharply.

The female shook her head, her shoulders also shaking as though she laughed quietly. “You are an Alpha.”

Roclan snarled. “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”

She leaned forward a little. “You prefer respect instead of truth.”

“The existence of one does not cancel out the other. Are you saying you are only capable of one at a time?”

From the short pause before she answered, Roclan suspected she was surprised by his response. “Some people don’t deserve both,” she said tightly.

“Criminals do not get to determine that. You will be respectful, and you will speak truthfully. Is that clear?”
The woman’s head ducked back down to knees as she mumbled, “If it weren’t, would you care?”

Roclan growled, but turned to unlock the door. “You will be summoned shortly,” he said to her. “You will have plenty of time to talk then, truth or not.”

“I won’t say more about the death than I’ve already said,” she said sharply. “I refused to be questioned multiple times.”

Roclan paused before turning back to her slowly, unable to help the deep and growly tone his voice embraced. “I believe you have been too well-treated here in Dorei, little captive.”

At that, the prisoner fell silent.

“In Lox prisons in Ashens, the conditions aren’t so pleasant, the guards aren’t so mild-mannered, and interrogations are not kind. Here, you have the luxury of being solitary, but there, prisoners find ways to sneak into the cells of others at night.”

She was silent for a long moment. “I guess… I’m lucky I am here, then,” she replied, though the confidence had fallen from her voice.

“Yes,” he growled back. “But you’re not lucky *I* am here.”
