[Music]
Hannah hey everybody and welcome to smut
club I'm Hannah and I'm am Chelsea and
we are two licensed mental health
therapists and this is the show where we
like to Day drink and review romance
novels of varying caliber MH and I know
we say it each time but like boy do they
vary they really do yeah yeah like which
I I do appreciate like it we explore
genres we do we do cuz I was like you
know this one I really enjoyed and like
it's not fully scent and everything and
so I was like well I don't know and then
I looked at the books that I have
reviewed recently and I was like this
one's fine
like and then you remember that the
first episode of the show's existence
was Denna Viper
and you're like we're good yeah I was
like I don't have to fully send everyone
and you know maybe when we get into it
because there have been times where I'm
like this
one I'm going to do it though and then
we get into it and I'm like oh my God
like
H perspectives
change very much so yeah so all that to
say what is today's book so we are
actually doing a two-parter so this is
the first part of the book the scent of
us the duology the scent of Us Part One
by Eliana
Lee no yes so we are going to be in the
Omega verse okay it's been a while it
has been a while we have we only done
one Omega verse book before I think I
think it was just the one it was like
the uh
influencer one the with the stalker yeah
and like the Rival influencer pack yeah
were her scent matches or okay yeah yeah
which is wild of all the books that
we've reviewed mhm you yeah cuz I feel
like we read more in the Omega verse we
do I think they're harder to review
because there are often so many oh my go
Partners involved and so it's a lot to
try to keep track of and so we're going
to do our best in this
one cuz initially I was like okay so
there's like three that she's involved
with with JK there's four JK there's
five JK there's maybe six it's like so
much well so we're going to get in I was
going to say don't don't tease me with a
good time we're going to get in but also
six dicks is Too Many Dicks It's So Many
Dicks so as as we've discussed
previously the logistics the logistics
of six dicks at a time it's a lot to
manage yeah unless there's sword
Crossing it's just there is oh thank God
yeah for their sake SPO yeah for
everybody's sake really um so our
main lady is Juno um and this
one starts dark and gets less dark so
we're starting with the darkest part
here um
so we enter on Juno this is all third
person but it is from different
perspectives um like at a section at a
time or kind of like how Suzanne Wright
will do multiple perspectives third
person kind of interchange chapter to
chapter so it's easier to track so Juno
um she is sketching um alone and she is
an Omega bonded to three alphas and she
does a lot of dampening her bond because
this was a bond that she did not consent
to and so she doesn't want to be in it
they are very terrible people okay so
this is not like a a scent match bond
this is a like
mhm was she bonded against her consent
yeah so it is not good but she does a
lot like I said to dampen the bond like
to protect herself okay and also to
protect Julian who is the beta that the
alphas hired as like her companion
because they didn't want to actually
deal with her
so they hired this beta to essentially
look out for her okay um so is this like
a a trafficking situation did they just
want to have an Omega so they could just
like get off when they wanted to so they
are like a criminal Syndicate it's three
brothers okay and so we'll get into how
she wound up with them because that's
kind of a big part of the story um but
she loves Julian and he brings her gifts
and like every day he checks in and he
says you know 1 to 10 because they're
almost always monitored like there's
video cameras in the house and stuff
like that um and the one time he touched
her because he was catching her when she
tripped on the stairs he was there was a
lot of punishment that happened because
of that so they don't touch they don't
okay so companionship but like with with
very set parameters and boundaries and
I'm sorry you may have said this how
long has she been with them um I think
it's been 2 years okay at this point um
so Julian every day will ask her 1 to 10
MH and she will give a number of like
how she is like if she's doing okay or
not um and so Julian brings her like
gifts and art supplies and stuff um and
um you know we that's like our uction to
Julian and into the situation so she is
sketching again on the couch that's kind
of her only Outlet is sketching Julian
is gone for the day um pack Z is the
pack that she's in oh I forgot this is
in
Australia oh yes omega's down under
omega's down under in many ways and
um many of the characters are of like
Chinese or Filipino descent kind of
throughout so um she is Chinese and
pagow is Chinese um which isn't doesn't
have a a huge bearing on the story but
it is helpful in some aspects so um they
bonded her essentially to clear her
father's debt so as soon as she perfumed
he set it up and then during her first
heat he essentially her dad sold her to
them and that's when they bonded her
um and they're constantly complaining
about her emotions through the bond how
she's all emo and stuff and like D D D D
D um but there's a new story on about
dissolving pack bonds and like a one
oneway pack
dissolution um which previously wasn't
possible it had to be a like Mutual
agreed upon thing to dissolve a bond but
there's all this new stuff coming out
about like it could happen um when I
feel like that's one of those
interesting things like within the Omega
verse cuz like some places you can
dissolve a bond and some places it's
really till you die yeah it's deaf for
Keeps so this is interesting that is it
like
a is it a pill you take how do you
dissolve it we get there oh sorry you
know me I'm just always asking
clarifying questions and you're like
Chelsea it's literally what we're to
[ __ ] do more will be
revealed so um we we switch to Julian he
is in love with Juno like madly in love
with her um PX out trusts him because
they think he's gay um because they
caught him with another man um and they
were like you're a beta and you're gay
you are literally no threat welcome like
you work for us now so really they're
they're not afraid to make quick
decisions and ask no questions they're
not great um they're a little annoyed
with how emo she is it's like it's
almost like they didn't bother to get to
know her before they bonded her against
her will yeah yeah it's almost like they
put no thought into their impact on
others um so he's desperate to help her
and um he's done things like the power
went out and he went and like took
pictures of a ledger that he found and
like random little things like anytime
he sees an opportunity he tries to do
something but all their their case
against yes them but all their ledgers
are in Chinese and he's like son of a
[ __ ] I really should have paid
attention to Mandarin [ __ ]
so um he's like they gave me the option
in school of Mandarin versus Spanish I
took that one semester and I can say
comistas it is not serving me In This
Moment damn it so Julian's family is
also Chinese um but he like refused to
learn Chinese he's like I'm not doing
that um like he can speak it some but he
can't read it so Juno hides a note in a
drawing that she does for him telling
him to contact the Omega commission
about the bond dissolution trials
because they
aren't it's not widely offered yet it's
kind of theoretical we're in like we're
in a testing phase yeah we're not FDA
approved or whatever the Australian
equivalent is um so he calls
but it like the call doesn't really go
through and he's like that's that's
weird but it is after hours I'll try
again tomorrow and it turns out that
pagow had his phone bugged and so they
throw him out they destroy his family's
business like like they literally buy
the building his family lives and works
in cuz they have a restaurant and they
live above it they buy the building and
evict them immediately and they like
destroy his whole family and they're
like you will never you will never come
back here like damn your dad will never
work again and that's it for you
bye um and they say like if you come
back for her we will end you like that's
it Juno will pay the consequences so now
she has nobody so um
she
is freaking out understandably rightly
so yeah um but they show her they have
also videoed her and they're like we
will release these videos of her during
her heat um if you try to leave us if
you try to contact
Julian you know we're going to ruin you
um and so they can't or you could just
like endear me to you you could just be
nice like it doesn't have to be this way
it baffles me sometimes both in books
and in real life where I'm like have you
considered being
kind no okay well carry on
then like have you considered just like
maybe not being a dick in this situation
no never crossed their mind not a single
time so they can't leave her alone
anymore CU they don't trust her and
Julian had been their answer to that and
they no longer have him and so the pack
is balanced because only two can leave
the house at the time leave the house at
a time and so two of the brothers are
out um Eric and Vincent are out um while
she is home with Andrew who is the pack
lead and she's giving him updates
through the bond like they're out doing
a job so she'll be like checking in
she's like yeah they're excited they're
content they're confident you know so
that he understands what's going on but
then all they're not he can't sense them
as well they're all just they're
centered on her centered on that's also
interesting yeah okay so they have not
bonded each other they have only bonded
her oh yeah yeah which I feel like isn't
typical of most pack setups that we read
about but also they are all
Brothers right so I get where maybe that
that feels a little different yeah and
okay that makes more sense well there's
a lot in this one and this is part of
why I wanted to review it that is like a
a different take that I actually really
liked and that's kind of part of it the
way they set up packs in this
universe but all of a sudden she has
this excruciating pain like brutal pain
and she's like Vincent is dead like one
of the brothers is dead and Andrew loses
his
[ __ ] understandably but then she is
happy and relieved because he was the
most brutal with her and he's like are
you happy about this like it and she's
like you're okay she's like cover it up
cover it up and she's like oh my God I'm
just so happy that you're okay and Eric
is okay I think and like she's like I'm
so relieved no I'm not happy that he's
dead I'm happy that you're okay
exactly does he believe it yes yeah but
I think he's so
like shocked by the whole situation and
also they've done nothing like you said
to get to know her so they probably
wouldn't know if she wasn't being honest
cuz they don't care um so her parents
and her brother come to the funeral okay
um and
they are like the most her parents do
they're like are you taking care of your
Alphas are you doing like what a good
Omega does they're not like hey are you
okay cuz like a bond breaking is brutal
like are are you all right none of that
her brother tries and she's like yeah
dude like too little too late [ __ ] off
like she is not interested in having any
kind of relationship with her family at
all which is understandable um I mean
when they sell her into the situation
and then are like you're doing what
you're supposed to in a situation you
didn't consent to right yeah yeah it
doesn't I don't know why I don't know
why maybe they
after that yeah yeah so Vincent died in
a bad drug deal and Eric retaliated and
killed the person who killed Vincent so
he is currently on house arrest awaiting
trial for murder so the pack is like
deeply unwell right now like obviously
things are very unbalanced and not okay
and Juno is realizing like she really
really has to get the [ __ ] out of here
because now they're talking about like
we should have a baby that'll make it
better and she's like will it like I
don't [ __ ] think so I just like have
so many questions about how these
brothers think the world Works
they their perspective and mine very
greatly because what so she is like
oh I know what I'll do cuz they're like
we can just cut out she has like an
implant she's like oh we'll just cut it
out cuz initially she was like okay if I
go to the doctor like maybe I can do
something and so they're talking about
like ways around it and like when you
say an implant like like in her arm like
like a like next plon is that the one
that's the arm one I thought it started
with a
D I had the arm one so I should know
that
it was not a great experience yeah many
people I've known have not had good
experiences with that I feel like some
people I know are like it's the best
thing that's ever happened to them and
those are the people that I talked to
before I got it and I got it and then uh
realized there were a lot more people in
my Camp of like my moods were so labile
and I was just like bursting into tears
all the time and my libido was so low
and I was just
like I don't like feeling like a crazy
person because of this in my arm and
then my practice was like I called in
June to get it out I got it I got it
Valentine's Day okay in June four months
later I was like I need this the [ __ ]
out I've had enough so I call and they
go okay the soonest we can get you in is
like September
12th and I was like cuz I had said I
needed an appointment after 3:00 p.m.
and they go okay the soonest we can get
you in September 12th okay I guess I'll
take it if I can't get anything before
that and then I call I was like you know
what I'll like figure it out with work
so I call back I I'll take the soonest
appointment that you have regardless of
the time of the day and they go okay we
can get you in September 13th [ __ ] off I
was
like I'm just gonna hang up on you guys
at this point oh no but also Vance and I
were getting married in October oh and
so I was like at that point I was like I
canceled the appointment I was like
we'll just like figure it out post
wedding at the appointment after we were
married my doctor was like oh yeah we
can always get people in quickly for
things like this and I was like I need
you to communicate that to your team
because that was not my expi you're the
only one who is saying that yeah and
she's like
oh so what birth control do you want to
switch to now and I was like not one
with you if I can't get in like I was
like what delusional world are you in
that we're going to continue our
relationship
no it came to you for one thing and it
didn't go
well did I ever tell you about I the
very first gynecologist I went to I
actually really liked her and she was
really great but then like over the
years cuz I saw her for a long time I
felt like things got different in the
office like the vibe was different like
like with like the front desk stuff yeah
and then like her vibe was different
suddenly she was wearing like high heels
and like lots of jewelry every day which
is fine like maybe you're just adjusting
your your aesthetic that's
cool but then I didn't have cable or
anything at this point I think I was in
college and I was strictly streaming or
whatever and I was in a hotel and had on
Bravo MH and a commercial for Married to
Medicine came on and my
gynecologist was on it and I remember
sitting there with the girl that I was
rooming with I don't even remember why
we were in this [ __ ] hotel but I like
grabbed her arm and I was like that's my
doctor and
I
tears I was like 20 years old and I was
like oh my
God I never went back but I did would
see her at a Starbucks because for how
large like the Metro Atlanta area is
it's also small with like the
neighborhoods you're in and you move in
you know I saw her out of Starbucks and
obviously I didn't say anything cuz I
doubt she would remember me anyway but I
saw her and she was getting into like a
brand new Porsche and I was like cool
cool cool cool cool cool cool I've made
correct decisions
like and you're like like more power to
you yeah but also you're there is
something about being
like but you're my doctor and now you're
doing this on TV in a way that
feels and like the the the the
commercial was like her fighting with
someone like screaming in someone's face
and stuff like it's not just like oh
she's on this like re no I was like oh
my God like are you okay like holy [ __ ]
you're like it felt like watching my
doctor on the Real Housewives of Atlanta
and then be like I'm going to keep
having you look at my vagina closeup no
yes you're correct on all fronts so I
never went back and I found a new
doctor but
anyway
so so that's not Juno's experience
thankfully her doctor is great because
what happens is she starts she's lactose
intolerant and so she starts sneaking
whole milk to make herself sick so that
they can feel it through the bond that
she is truly in physical pain so that
they will take her to the doctor and
they don't know her well enough to know
that like it's just a dietary concern
that's very preventable correct [ __ ]
yeah Juno Juno is like she's a queen so
surprised well maybe not surprised and
I'm not judging anyone for staying in
their situation but I'm like how long
were you working on that plan all you
needed to do was drink some real milk
but I guess she was waiting until so the
other piece of it is the doctor who put
the the birth control in implant in
before was like under their employ and
so like wouldn't have worked out for her
but they found out at Vincent's funeral
that that doctor actually died oh and so
they didn't have anybody to like take
her
to and so she's like oh well you know if
you want to we can go get this checked
out and make sure that like I I am able
right to have kids but we can get my
implant removed at the same time like
this is and this is why men shouldn't be
in charge of women's reproductive
medical decision foolish dude [ __ ]
foolish we'll get this checked out to
see if I can still have kids and she's
like I really just needed to make the
switch back to almond milk she prefers
oat but yes
so do
I I well I'll say this I prefer oat milk
creamer yes or if I'm going nut milk I'm
going to go cashew milk say cashew milk
is where it's at yeah like the heavier
fat creamier mhm mhm mhm don't say it I
won't I saw it coming out of your mouth
oh no I like that you also saw the
resignation that I was like damn it
creamier or cream
M he made it
worse death didn't make it better we'll
say that much okay so they go to the
doctor um and
so the she's trying to figure out how to
let the doctor know cuz they're refusing
to leave her side she doesn't have a way
to like pass them a note or anything and
so she's like okay
[ __ ] so the doctor asks for a urine
sample and when she goes in there's a
little sign on the door that says hey
use the black pen if you're a good to go
use the red pen if you need help and so
she uses the red pen but not only that
but she writes like SOS on it because
she's like I need them to know this is
like this needs to happen right now like
I'm really not okay and
so then like 10 15 minutes later like
the doctor rolls in and is totally stoic
and like pretending nothing happened to
the point where Juno's like oh [ __ ] like
she saw it right and then the doctor's
like wait for my sign she's like is your
arm numb she's like poking it and she's
like and Juno's like oh no I still feel
it she's like okie dokie and then the
cops just like bust
in and so Juno is rescued at that point
well we love that yeah and this is is
another reason why I liked this story is
because we then Flash Forward 3 years
she has gone through the bond
dissolution trials she was successful in
dissolving the two she had remaining um
she has been in therapy this whole time
she is living in an Omega only
Community um she works in a coffee shop
she is going back to school for graphic
design um and she has done so healing so
like we a lot of these books is like the
healing Journey this is like her growth
Journey you know what I mean and that's
kind of refreshing and also pause
because I know that we're about to go
three years in the future
M really love when doctor offices and
practices have yes like safe situation
setups like that um well and not just
doctor's offices but like when I waited
tables had like Angel shot things in all
of our bathrooms so people knew like if
you need an escort to your car you order
this shot if you need an escort like if
you need us to call someone right like
this one if you need us to to like call
the cops this one and so like we always
knew like yes um we had that available
to people um but I feel like that's
becoming more more prevalent I was even
laughing cuz there was like a post that
I saw that had like gone viral recently
where a girl was like yeah I was at a
out at a bar with my husband and my
husband just like messing around was
like kind of like hey baby like what you
doing here and another girl walked up
and was like Hey we're late for the
whatever and just like totally tried to
save her and she's like thank you so
much this is actually my husband it's
not like a weird roleplay situation he's
just being an idiot he's just like she's
like but I like really value you than
yes truly yeah and I think I've told you
I was on a first date once that was so
bad that when the guy went to the
bathroom the waitress came over and was
like do I need to call someone or like I
can tell them that you had an emergency
you could just leave
like yes having more awareness of that
as a whole is helpful so appreciated yes
um and also like the the care that she
received upon like getting out of that
situ we don't get tons of details but
like she went through really intensive
therapy but then the bond dissolution
was partially medication okay and then
partially what she had been doing to
dampen the bond so she would like do
visualization of like covering the bond
right with like something Gauzy so that
it would be quieter right that was kind
of also part of the process was a lot of
visualization of Imagining the bond like
a rope shredding uh um to like so she
already kind of had practice doing it
and she didn't even realize it so she
went through all of that and now she's
like been back in school remotely she's
getting ready to go back in person you
know she has friends she has a community
um of other other omegas who went
through the bond dissolution um she has
changed her appearance completely she's
dyed her hair blonde she has covered
covered herself in tattoos so all of her
bond marks are on her neck um and um
she's just like starting to live now um
and she has never forgotten Julian and
she's tried to find him over the years
online and stuff because she also moved
like across the country um which makes
sense right to feel safer and everything
so she's tried to find him
but there's been no Whisper of him on
the internet that she's able to find and
so um she's like you know that's okay as
long as he's safe and you know yeah away
from
them
so she gets tickets to this Art Exhibit
her best friend Hazel is kind of like a
a peripheral character throughout this
okay she gets a an a book in the series
that I haven't read yet but she has it's
an Omega fans um but it's like an only
fans for omegas and she makes [ __ ]
bank so she gets tickets to this Art
Exhibit that Juno has really been
wanting to go to I think it's van go um
and while she's there this Alpha comes
and sits next to her and he smells
awesome and he's trying to talk to her
and he like Smiles at her and this
dimple shows up and the direct quote in
the book is how dare he like as soon as
she sees his dimple she's like [ __ ] you
man like like cute aggression almost
um and then he's like hey what's your
name and she's like that's it's like she
comes back to herself and she's like oh
no like we don't [ __ ] do alphas and
she just takes off yeah so then she's
like I've made a lot of growth and
progress in my healing Journey but like
not like that not going there Le not
right now yeah like that doesn't that
doesn't quite feel safe yet yes and so
now she is starting her her class is on
campus she's in her first class um and
it's some kind of like marketing or
something um and in her very first class
um she sents the lecturer whose name is
Ari um and he is smells incredible and
she's like what is happening to me like
this has never been a thing we like are
they in the same pack no oh yeah okay so
um she is really EXC excited about the
class and so like once she gets over the
like oh he smells real good she's like
really into the content and just super
excited but there's a beta in the class
who is like hateful and she's just like
just because you're an Omega doesn't
mean you get to have him and she's like
have who our teacher what the [ __ ] are
you talking about I'm just here to talk
about advertising why are you like this
why are you like
she's like what is your problem
dude
um I know we'll learn more about Ari in
the near future but did you see the post
that's been going around the last couple
weeks about the uh UT
Knoxville Prof who is like hardcore
Millennial core and um whenever a
student falls asleep in his class he
just like goes up in front of them and
like screams emo lyrics directly in
their
face I've not seen that but I love it
like a kid like fell asleep and he's
like so tonight will be the
night it like wakes up what I have been
watching is cute cat videos on Tik Tok
set to like unhinged random Emo music
from the early as and it I don't know
why but it's so good I didn't know what
your Tik Tok algorithm was but I
I am
zero hear me
zero%
surprise it's very on brand for me to be
honest like when you tell me you post a
video of Fred with an insane clown posy
cat filter on Tik Tok I'm going to be 0%
surpris yeah I mean I I will is that a
filter I will find it I don't know if
that one's a filter yet but they had
that like Dapper cat with the top hat
and Mon and so I think at this point the
world is our oyster with filters if you
ask for an ICP pet filter someone I do
want that will make that I do want that
oh what a that's what you should do for
Matt for Christmas this year oh that's
such a good idea it's like the pets as
ICP and get it framed huge for your
front entry I've never even actually
seen
of your house so I don't even know if
you have a front entry yeah we could do
that but yeah you're welcome Matt you
don't even know have a portrait of Gizmo
that I got for Matt a few years ago
that's him as a king and he's like that
whole
situation I bet I could find somebody to
do Insane Clown posy I'm GNA have to
look anyway
also we are recording this pre holidays
but I know it won't drop until post
holidays so for the record Hannah is not
I don't know what when this episode will
drop I'm not planning 11 yeah this isn't
like 11 months
ahead but also I am that [ __ ] yeah I
know I know you are with your
spreadsheets no so my my mom's birthday
is
tomorrow and so my sister had been
trying to figure out where to send her
gift and uh so she text me she's like
hey I sent it to your house I was like
well no [ __ ] it arrived like two hours
ago thank you um and then she was like
yeah
I didn't want to pay for like the $5 bag
on Amazon like the the wrapping gift bag
and I was like yeah no problem I'm happy
to to rap it she's like thank God cuz I
hate rapping and I just went it gives me
a chance to practice your your bougie
ass folds for Christmas I literally said
I go don't even worry it gives me a
chance to practice a new fold pattern
before the holidays is a real text I
sent my sister
we should do an episode one day of like
real texts we've sent real people
because many of our conversations are
unhinged oh yeah that's very good yeah I
was like to be fair I tried that fold
pattern last year and I needed more the
hering
bone no okay cuz I feel like we
discussed the hering bone the Herring
bone you need a very specific box shape
for the haing bone yeah like the long
skinny I don't remember what what one
you need I just know it wasn't what I
tried it on but I remember thinking like
oh if the shape of this were different
it would land better but also I watched
a folding video on Tik Tok recently
where they like using wrapping paper to
like wrap a bottle of
champagne this woman had so many extra
supplies on hand I was like I'm just
going buy a [ __ ] bag I'm just going
to hang on the bottle of champagne like
this is like put a bow on
it yeah I'm like love the vision wholly
unnecessary like I don't need a 37 step
process I'll just buy a bag step one buy
a bag and scene nailed it complete so
good right okay sorry got us very off
track there I don't even yeah okay so
we're 3 years in the future oh the
professor the professor's the [ __ ]
beta yeah Juno is excited about her
classes and like getting into more
graphic design cuz art is her thing so
um then she is at a checkup um with the
doctor that she gets kind of through the
Omega commission for being a part of the
trials and
everything and um the doctor's like hey
honey so um your heat suppressants are
failing um and that's why she reacted to
those two Alphas cuz the doctor asked
she was like so have you noticed and
she's like yeah so okay so it's not
necessarily like that they were her
scent matches so much as she's just
thirsty yes correct got it so um the the
doctor is like so you have maybe 3 to 6
months before your heat will show up um
you have options we can't do
suppressants anymore like that's no
longer going to be an option we can do
Services you can go ahead and start
interviewing packs to support you
through your heat if you want to do that
or you can search for a pack match um
it's really up to you however you want
to do that um and she said yeah no I'm
not I'm not going to be with randos for
my heat even if I get to meet them
before like that's too much so they she
want a pack match no like she say like I
feel like she like at this point just
kind of like wants to be
asexual Almost 100% like she never wants
a bond again and she has no interest in
bonding and that's why she's been on
heat suppressants so like her best
friend uses heat services and like you
know kind of sex is like her like a big
part of her life but Juno has like cut
that part of herself really off um and
so which I mean understandable valid
understandable completely um so she
decides to go to the scent matching
department and so she starts
um they basically explain like a scent
match is not fate in this one right we
don't really call it scent matching
anymore like in the industry we call it
scent sympathetic and just because you
are scent sympathetic with someone does
not mean that you are actually
compatible with them it's so weird that
I I
like just imagining Boomers being like
you can't say anything these days you
can't say scent match you got to say
[ __ ] so thate that kind of comes up
later it's so bad so okay so um that
helps you know feel better um but
they're like is there a certain scent
that you really like that you want to
start with and she's like well there was
this guy at the Museum and he smelled
like coffee and macadamia nuts and
they're like beautiful we'll start with
coffee since we love you so much we are
here to support you like they're all
omegas who've been through the process
and so she goes through and she finds
the guy um or she finds the scent that
she's pretty sure and she gets his file
so there are his name is olly he is
Filipino he's a photographer super
successful guy there are two others in
his pack Isaac who is his um who is
alli's biological brother okay um who is
their pack lead so he's also Filipino he
is a CFO and then there's another who is
Everett a Swedish civil engineer we get
a lot of information from these
packets um so Everett was adopted by
Olly and Isaac's family so he is their
adopted brother um she likes Isaac and
Everett's scents but not like she likes
his right so she is s sympathetic she is
a scent match to olly but not to the
other
two um so the that's interesting right
and she's like Everett like maybe there
could be something like romantic or like
attractive for me and that but like
Isaac not really like I'm not really
into that when especially because I feel
like as you were saying before like
other Omega verse MH options one and
done it's like oh you're matching the
whole pack if you choose this versus
yeah very okay I'm very intrigued to see
how this plays out so the O the other
omegas cuz she's kind of freaking out
she's like what if I'm not into Isaac
like he's the pack lead like o and
they're like no packs look however you
want and they're sharing like their own
experience of like I'm with this Alpha
and this Alpha and this beta in my pack
but I'm not with this one and like we're
all connected because we've chosen to be
family and not just because of
sex um and so that really helps a lot um
and so she agrees to reach out to them
well and so like what I feel like I hear
you saying and tell me if I'm
interpreting this incorrectly is that
like
cool just because you are an Isaac's
pack does not mean that you are in
Juno's pack as far as kind of like how
like like she can bond with Olli but
wouldn't have to bond with the other two
then she could bond with others so she
can so she's the center yes and like
create her own pack and then they
they are still part of the family right
like they're all still connected but she
doesn't have to be sexually active with
all of them like it's up to her kind of
how she wants that to look um yeah very
different than a lot of Erse books for
sure yeah so we then get Isaac's point
of view so he is trying to comfort olly
um it's been two weeks since he saw this
Omega at the Museum and he has been un
traveling ever since um he's like she's
the most beautiful woman I've ever seen
and she smelled amazing and she was so
pretty and she was so nice and I I just
have to find her we have to find her so
they've been doing all this stuff to try
to find her and Isaac makes a joke of
like do you want me to like hack into
the Omega Village and see if she's there
and olie's like yes and he's like you
can yeah Isaac's like you think I can do
that like what do you who do you think I
am well you shouldn't have offered
you didn't have the skill set ISAC
literally oli's response why would you
even say that if you're not going to do
it also I feel like Isaac is an
underappreciated Old Testament name yeah
Isaac is a great name yes I like it a
lot um
so they've
tried everything they can think of they
like went to one of the Gallas at the
commission to try to see if maybe she
would be there like literally anything
they can do to search for this person
because Olly is just [ __ ]
off the chain about
it um but then a call comes in from the
scent matching Department to say hey we
have a scent match for you and they send
over a packet with her scent card her
photo and a video that she made to
introduce
herself and miles is the beta of the
pack and he is bonded to Isaac so they
are an item together um olly and M
the beta both have really strong
reactions to the scent which is very
uncommon for Betas but he was like oh
[ __ ] I'm into that I'm like oh
no when you know you know right
especially in the Omega verse yep and
Everett imagine having a deviated septum
in the Omega verse oh my God my little
sister had a deviated septum and poor
thing she had it corrected but it was a
lot for a long time for her a I know
and I've broken my nose so many times
it's a miracle that I'm not more yeah
welled about good news for you is you
don't live in an Omega verse also
helpful yeah that wouldn't have been a
great situation oh my God can you
imagine covid-19 in the Omega verse
nobody can smell anything oh
[ __ ] oh I bet somebody's written that um
I don't want to read it though it's
still too soon for me
covid-19 omega
it's still too soon for me you can't
smell or taste anything right you meet
your scent match and you immediately
hate them and then you finally get your
smell back like two months later and
you're like son of a
[ __ ] I think I just wrote that if
nobody else has I think I just did it I
mean I think you can confidently call
dibs on that storyline dibs yeah not
that I'm ever going to do it you know
what when you do I'll read it and I'll
outline it to review oh no
what Hannah if you wrote a book we would
review it lovingly I know if not
honestly but also
lovingly that's what I'm afraid of a no
that's not true I'm not afraid of that
it would probably be hilarious cuz I
would fully send it I would do it on
purpose I know and you know what we
typically just stick to day drinking but
that's the day I would make sure to take
an edible right before and after this is
a very special
episode our our co-host wrote the book
we're going to lose our [ __ ] over buckle
up everybody it will be the least linear
review we've ever had okay so uh they
get the call that uh he has a match and
they send the packet over and he's like
this is great news the one yes this is
the girl from two weeks ago so um
Everett is kind of into the the scent
Isaac just he's like it feels like she
fits but I don't have any like
attraction to the scent really um and so
he's like I have a desire to protect her
I want to get to know her but it's more
familial than romantic yeah you're like
it's not an unpleasant scent it's just
not a scent that like gets my dick hard
correct yeah yeah so they watched the
video of her his name miles miles sorry
trying to keep all the names straight
it's okay to ask again cuz it's probably
going to come up cuz it's a lot um so
they watch the video of her and she
explains that she is literally just
seeking a pack because her suppressants
have failed um she doesn't think she's
ever going to want a bond again um after
the last time um but she would like to
explore building a family she's like I
don't really have one and you know the
idea sounds really nice but I don't
think I can ever Bond again um and the
pack is like yep like everybody is like
we just we want to meet her we want to
get to know her yeah like it regardless
it feels like it's worth seeing if if
and how we can move forward right so
Olly is losing his [ __ ] he's the first
one to meet her so like they set it up
at the commission where like it's going
to be safe for Juno to meet them um and
they decide to send in just olly by
himself first since she's met him
already so she won't get too overwhelmed
and he's so excited he just starts
rambling about how um he like doesn't
want to scare her away and he got her
cupcakes and she said in her video she
was into creepy things and so he asked
them to put spiders on it and he he
hopes that that's not too creepy and
that she still likes the cupcakes and
he's just like okay so Olly is the
golden retriever 100% um and she's like
hey when he finally is like like cuz
he's been talking for so long she's like
hey hey would it be okay if I hold your
hand and he's like yes would be great
he's like yes please so the rest of the
pack comes in and Isaac is super
intimidating like really big presents
lots of like hard eye contact and she's
like holy [ __ ] and he's like looking
really intently at her like as he's
walking up to her and he like kind of L
leans down like he's looking at in her
eyes and she's like oh my God is he
about to kiss me because I don't think I
want him to kiss me and so she like
blurts out that she is not attracted to
him just out loud and she's like oh my
god oh [ __ ] she's like I ruined that so
fast she's like oh
no and he smiles and he's just like
that's really good cuz I'm not really
into you either and she's like oh thank
[ __ ] she's like oh my God okay that's
good um and Everett is like weird in the
background like really locked up and
like not really interacting with her and
she's like okay well like that's also
fine um but miles comes up and she is
super into his scent as well even though
he's a beta and um they're kind of
flirting a little bit and then she
realizes that miles is bonded to Isaac
and she immediately backs off and she's
like I am so sorry I did not mean to
like step on any bound boundaries or
like whatever um I didn't mean to
disrespect your
relationship and everyone is very
relieved because they were concerned
that she would not be okay with like
sharing an alpha even if she wasn't into
it okay um but she's like super
respectful of the whole situation and
Isaac and Miles both explain they've
talked about this before and they're
very open to like bringing her into
their relationship um but just so
appreciative of her coming into it ohz I
mean
her that she's like oh I'm realizing
that I'm walking into walking into a
pre-existing situation and relationship
and I'm not trying to step on any toes
as we navigate how to move forward which
we love we love and so does the pack so
they agree that they're all going to
date individually and as a pack um so
even though she maybe isn't romantically
into Isa
um and maybe with Everett um they're
still going to date individually because
it's important that they get to know
each
other so Isaac takes Juno this is very
fascinating it is like I really like the
dynamic in it um and it grows and
changes like as it moves and it's it's
very cool um and so Isaac is taking Juno
on a date to a fancy restaurant and
immediately Hazel like when Isaac comes
to pick her pick Juno up Hazel the
bestie is
like what are your [ __ ] intentions
like she's not into you so like you're
not going to try anything right like
that's been fully established she's like
bowing up to this massive Alpha was like
tiny Omega and he immediately is like no
of course like Juno sets the pace and
she decides where this goes and of
course I'm just happy to be here um and
I don't assume that she owes me anything
because she's an Omega right right and
so then Hazel immediately like shifts
gears and is like cool so you guys are
deeply in denial so uh just remember
that I told you so when you finally [ __ ]
and like goes away and they're both like
no like we literally just met like um so
awkward so don't we love an
overconfident bestie yes moving the
story along like dropping hints well not
even hints she's just letting you know
this is what's gonna happen well is that
like because I know she just said deeply
in now was that like when you were
reading it was it clear that like they
were like they're into not really it was
like they are open to each other as like
friends and wanting to get to know each
other and like he really wants to
protect her but they're and like
objectively they're both like yeah
they're attractive but there wasn't any
like holy [ __ ] which is usually how it
is in an Omega verse where it's like
immediately like lust driven like this
is happening right now I remember being
probably like high school age and like
talking to my parents like not
articulating it well but that like yeah
like objectively I understand that this
is an attractive person and I'm not
attracted to
them yes like I wish them all the best
yeah they are a good-look human and
I don't view them as a sexual being
right or at
least not comparatively to myself like
you know what I
mean but I remember my parents like what
do you mean like but like he like high
school crushes and things but he's like
he's cute and I'm like and that's it
yeah like he
is period no comma right like I can't
remember what it's from but there's
something that's like um yeah you know
congratulations about your face but like
the rest of you I'm not really
into right and even like a there's
nothing wrong with it it's just not for
me you aren't my person yeah and that's
okay yes and so like that's how I've
been like interpreting right Isaac and
that's how I read it as well so but for
hazel to come in and be like y'all are
in denial she's like somebody's about to
[ __ ] and so it's like so awkward when
they're on this date um but eventually
they settle and they have a great night
talking about like what she is hoping
for and how Isaac runs the pack and like
you know what it would look like for her
to be a part of that um and she tells
Isaac about Julian and Isaac is like I
will find him no problem give me all the
information you have about him no no
issue at all because they have plenty of
money and he's like I'm going to do this
do we know what they do does it matter
what they do so Isaac is a CFO of some
kind of like for 500 well well and then
Olly is a photographer which will come
up again and then Everett is an engineer
and it doesn't that doesn't really come
up again um you're like they have jobs
that pay them consistently yes is really
yeah they all make good money yes so
then um and miles is an architect also
makes good money but also not on a way
where it's like and they're all each
individually ridiculously wealthy
billionaires generational wealth out the
ass right but you know we wouldn't lump
them in with Eat the Rich but like
they're fine
so man people talk about being a dual
income household with with no kids
quadruple income household with no kids
polyamory looks better and better I got
to tell
you and you living in North Georgia is a
huge very open polyamorous Community
yeah it's notoriously very accepting in
my area um North Georgia they're known
for their Progressive
mindset oh so when Isaac gets
home
miles also says like hey so you know
that you're into her right and Isaac is
like no I'm not I just want to protect
her and I think about her all the time
and how I'm going to protect her right
he's like Isaac is like miles you are
still my number one I'm like kind of
she's all right like she fits in the
pack but like I don't want to bang her
and he's like okay
honey he's like whatever you say um and
then eventually like it comes around to
like Isaac is like Hey so uh or miles
asks did you tell her that we all got
tested and Isaac is like no it didn't
come up how was I supposed to bring that
up like what the [ __ ] and he's like you
should probably do it she's into you and
miles is like super love that this fals
to me that's great I get to talk to also
cuz there's really no way bring it up in
a c way to casually bring it up that
doesn't sound presumptuous right like
hey
FYI I don't know if you're into it I'm
into it what I do yesterday afternoon
I'm glad you asked I reviewed my recent
test results oh what test let me tell
you about it like it's like somebody
recently told me they were like yeah so
I started seeing this guy and um on like
our fifth date or something we went and
got tested together and then got ice
cream I was like that is incredible and
I love it so much um yeah it's very good
no I def like had an ex who I was like
doing some math I was like when was the
last last time you were
tested yeah might be something that we
need to do and it was like when he told
me like he was so proud of himself but
he was like before work I went and got
tested this morning I'm like you don't
get a cookie for right thank you like
why why are you saying it like that yeah
I was kind of like uh and and until we
get those results back yeah I was like I
did some math and I just need
some we just want to be extra safe you
know professional confirmation before
anything else but yeah I was like
oh nothing like getting some blood drawn
at 7:30 in the
morning I'm really happy for you
like thank you I was once trying to keep
my face straight in
session because a client was like
Chelsea
I was sleeping with this guy and it was
our first time and he asked if he needed
a condom and I was like yeah you do and
then
like mid thrust he whispered in her ear
you make me want to get
tested
nope
nope and I've thought about that for
years that is a rentree moment for sure
that is a rentree that'll live there
forever you make me want to get tested I
was like and obviously I did not ask
this by any stretch in session did he
but in my head I was like and did you
dry up like the Sahara like why was it
an immediate Dismount like you're like
and I'm out I'm like that is
a I don't know if that line really like
progresses the moment like
he it
so remember this failure at dirty talk
remember it so it's much later but miles
then is taking Juno out on a date and
Isaac had said like hey like she really
wasn't into the fancy restaurant I took
her to she seemed kind of uncomfortable
um and so Isaac takes her out for all
you can eat hot wings and uh a ghost
tour hell yeah I'm a
vegetarian even I think that sounds like
a great dream date dream date for me um
and so um you know what I'll eat all of
those sugar fries from Wingstop on this
date before the ghost T her so um she
like is clinging to him and they're like
jumping behind each other and stuff in
on this ghost tour and he's like I am
[ __ ]
brilliant he's like I nailed this [ __ ]
this is the best day ever
so he asks her to come back to the house
also let's give miles that like truly a
great like he should feel every ounce of
Pride yes he has earned it literally
especially being like okay knowing what
her previous experiences are trying to
like think out of the box find something
new something easy and
just yes like way to go miles way to go
and he even got like a private ghost
tour so it was the two of them and the
super creepy tour tour guide and like
this old jail it's so good there's a
place just outside of Nashville cuz like
yes there's like haunted houses Haunted
Woods there's ghost tours they did like
a canoe Le ghost tour and they were like
we like the river they're like there's
like a cemetery at the bottom of like
the lake or the river wherever it is and
they're like and so we go directly over
the underwater C
Cy I was like at night in a canoe in
October like that's not warm water yeah
and I was like oh you've definitely like
upped the creep Factor on that I'm like
that sounds super fun but I'm also like
I wouldn't I feel like I like wouldn't
do that experience with just anyone cuz
I was like I need to make sure that's a
level of trust yes yeah that's a level
of trust for real are you a person I
trust enough to get into a canoe in the
dark with in October over a cemeter
cemetery that's intense yes but like
that's when Matt and I go to new places
we always do a ghost tour because it's
like a really fun way to like learn the
history of a place and like be creepy
even when we went to Arizona last year
we did a ghost tour I don't think it
ever occurred to me that Arizona was a
place that readily offered ghost tours
oh it's like they apparently because of
the all of the quartz that is there they
say it's like a like a mecca for
Supernatural activity it was super super
fun yeah we went honestly what a great
idea of like ways to like learn the
history and like low stakes entertaining
and it's like a walking tour of the city
that you're in and you like get to see
like the cool architecture and stuff
that's a great idea mhm we always do it
highly recommend so Miles honestly like
truly would have won me immediately
you're like even if we weren't a scent
match I would have been down for that
[ __ ] with no problem exactly so um he's
like hey do you want to come back to the
pack house for ice cream which again
immediately yes you've won
me and she is like is that code for
sex and he's like no but we have all
been
tested I was expecting like a no unless
you want it to be yeah no so he then
sends it in the group chat to the the
pack and he's like Juno's coming back to
the house for ice cream and ever is like
is that code for
sex and Olly is like we have ice cream
like it's awesome um so we have ice
cream he's like we have ice cream so
they do have ice cream and then miles
just like blurts out we've all been
tested and um Juno is like oh uh and
that like kind of takes her out cuz she
had been kind of into it but it takes
her out because the last time she was
tested was after she was rescued and she
hasn't been with anybody since um and
so miles is like hey that's actually
really helpful to know are there any
other triggers what else do we need to
be aware of like not even during sex but
just like in general being with you what
would be helpful and so she runs down a
list she's like I don't want anyone
using an alpha bark on me no pain no
restraints no hair pulling um and no
asking me to present and he's like like
he he is so upset that like all of those
things would hurt her um but he is like
really grateful that she was willing to
tell
him so um then they wind up going back
to his room which is like super
depressing it's kind of empty because
he's usually in Isaac's room um and but
he is just so sweet to her they're
making out and then my notes say finger
blasting and he is insistent that it's
all about her like he's like nope that's
not what this is about I don't want you
to reciprocate and she's like cool cool
cool but like could I watch you like cuz
I would I'm into that and he is like I'm
also into that he's like if that feels
safe to you literally yes he's like I'm
just happy to be
here and um then they just snuggle and
they have like a really nice
time so then alli's date is at the zoo
and he is obsessed with her and like
watching her like get so excited about
all these little animals and he's like I
wonder if it's legal to adopt a Mir cat
she loves the Mir cats and he's like so
into it it's not cuz I've looked into it
myself lest we forget the Mir Cat Tattoo
yeah I forgot about that until this
moment that Mir cats are my spirit an
spirit animal unless that is at this
point in life considered cultural
appropriation in which I apologize for
the term spirit animal and I'm just
going to say it's my favorite animal
that I just feel like I deeply identify
with every time I see one super
connected to it yeah I get it mhm um to
the point that my husband got a tattoo
of a
mircat for me and then I also got a
tatue of
air also for you but I also got a
penguin for him and they're right next
to each other so I got a penguin and a
mircat together I didn't just get a
tattoo this is for me which I is also I
guess technically the rest of my tattoos
if I'm being objective yeah I guess
that's really what tattoos are anyway
anyo so he's like I wonder if I can get
her into the giraffe enclosure she loves
the giraffes and he's just like so
excited to be there with her and like
trying to figure out how to make her
happy he plans like a whole which one is
she with at this point olly who
match the actual scent match so sorry I
know you said it I just like much so
like please continue to conf the four so
many so afterwards they have a picnic
lunch and she draws all of them as
animals um like gives them all cute
little characteristics and stuff so Olly
is the otter miles is the monkey Everett
is the kangaroo and Isaac is the Panther
and he's like well you have to draw
yourself you didn't draw
yourself and he's like oh my God you
could be like a cute little bunny or a
cute little kitten or a cute little and
he's like naming all these animals um
and he's like but
also you could be a snake um and like if
you didn't want to be cuddled you could
be a danger noodle I'd still cuddle a
danger Noodle and she's like danger
noodle the [ __ ] but she draws herself as
a snake and it's a very cute little
moment for them um danger noodle I know
it's so cute
um so they are openly communicating with
each other about like her level of
comfort and everything because he's an
alpha so she's a little uncomfortable
but they do make out and it's really
nice and then now we're with Everett so
she's on a date with Everett and Swedish
engineer the Swedish engineer um and she
is not looking forward he is not looking
forward to his date with Juno um he
courted an Omega before who was his
scent match and it did not go well okay
um that's an interesting yeah so she had
been incredibly bigoted and awful
towards miles and Isaac and didn't even
think miles should be a part of the pack
and was incredibly hateful but he didn't
know that until after he'd been courting
her for a while and then there was this
like subtle shift and then like very
obvious
shift um and so the guys were like hey
if you want to go be with her like
that's okay like we won't hold that
against you and he was like absolutely
why would I choose her if she's going to
be this hateful to ex people to people
that I love so Juno is completely
different and he's trying to kind of
like find his bearings with her
reconcile his previous experience yeah
for sure and so she he takes her to a
food truck Park but then he's like this
was a mistake because there are so many
different food trucks she's like well
the fastest way to get all the food we
want is to split up right and he's like
I cannot let her out of my sight he's
like oh no like his Alpha instincts are
riding him really hard okay and so she's
like hey just sent Mark me honey like
I'm
hungry so he's like oh okay like this is
actually maybe okay and so he starts to
loosen up and he's like oh damn I'm
actually really attracted to her and her
scent is pretty awesome and like this is
more fun than I expected
and she's not a horrible bigot yeah
she's really lovely and she's covered in
tattoos and he's covered in tattoos and
so they start arguing about the most
painful tattoo placement what was their
determination well he was like it's
definitely the ribs and she was like
it's definitely the throat dumbass and
he is like like well do you have a
tattoo on your ribs and she's like no do
you have a tattoo on your neck didn't
think so and so they're like doing this
really cute banter which is also fair
and I would agree with him that the ribs
are a [ __ ] and a half the ribs is rough
but I also don't have a throat tattoo me
either by comparison I do have a sternum
situation you have a sternum tattoo so
the so I have one that goes across my
ribs and up on my sternum what yeah I've
known you for how long and I never knew
you had a sternum piece yeah so it goes
under both my boobies all the way around
and then up onto my sternum like not
super that several years it's like right
right here you mean like where your
sternum is yeah no makes complete
sense well I'm like it's not up high on
my
sternum it's like right smack between
the titties yeah but okay
question yeah because for for those of
you that um have maybe only ever
listened to audio have never seen photos
of Hannah Hannah and I are both covered
in a decent amount of tattoos but
Hannah's left side is all black and gray
yep and then her her right side is her
color side
correct so how does your sternum piece
work it's all black and white oh okay I
have thought about adding color to the
yeah the right side um but um it hurt a
real bad
um and I'm like you know and this one
was probably one of the ones that was
the most for me and so I'm like you know
I don't think it needs color but maybe
someday I'll feel differently but it's
the phases of the moon oh okay um
because it's like a a maiden mother
Crone kind of like yeah I'm going to
make you show me when you're no longer
on
camera um but there's roses and like a
geometric situation and like yeah so
um um yeah so the part that's on my
sternum is like part of a there's a
triangle in it so it's the top of the
triangle and then there's a crescent
moon on top of the triangle um and I
could feel the vibrations in my face
because it was like vibrating my sternum
and so like I had one big fat tear that
like rolled down my face and my best
friend was with me and she's like do you
want some chocolate and I was like no I
want you to shut up please like I love
you so much please be quiet like it was
awful um it's the only time like because
it is wrapped around my ribs and I have
tattoos on my shins and on my
feet it's the only time I have one even
that's like almost in my armpit but this
the only time that I was like I have
made a mistake yeah well cuz like I have
the one on the inside of my left arm
like the shading is like really close to
my armpit where I was like oh like [ __ ]
I can't do that any further and then the
one on my ribs has a lot of packed Black
Ink yes and I also got it within like 6
months after being married and I'm
pretty sure that's the least I've
weighed in like you know what I mean so
I'm like oh like my ribs were a little
more prominent than they are in this era
of like
um but I have also been like the
difference between like my side rib cage
like my sternum rib cage I'm like that
is just a level of
sensitivity yeah well and what's Wild is
the spot right below the rib cage I was
like you can live there it was like
nothing but as soon as she hit the bone
I was
like [ __ ] me I was like you're like I
made a horrible mistake yeah yeah yeah
yeah well not not quite the same um and
not on the front of the throat but my
best friend's husband on their honey
moon got her name on his neck um and I
was like hardcore even then good for you
man yeah
um and then at one point in their
marriage they hit a really rough spot
where they weren't sure how things were
going to go and that was one of the
things that like came up in therapy was
he's like I have your [ __ ] name on my
neck like what do I do what do I do yeah
exactly because she also had his name um
which is their son's name as well oh
like loophole like it's I'm not going to
use their names for the sake of privacy
but it's kind of like a John versus
Jonathan situation on like right she
calls him John but the son goes by
Jonathan sort of situation and so I'm
like well like I guess the tattoo could
pivot to your son if you if you needed
it to but yeah like legit conversation
that they had in coup's therapy was like
I have your name tattooed on my neck yep
yep what does that look like it's not
subtle yeah in an era where like our
marriage is not in a thriving place and
I do have a v i have yeah but even I
like when I was talking to my tattoo
artist I was like I have a v on my ring
finger and it can be a v it can turn
into an a a five like we have options
yes we can go Roman numerals if we need
to but I was like I have options should
anything ever happen but I asked my
tattoo I just I was like would you ever
get a t like get a ring finger tattoo
and it's her fiance not her husband at
this point quite yet and she was like I
mean maybe once I've had his child but
like right until I until I've bared his
child born his
child grammatically I'm not thriving in
this moment his child produced his
child that's wor I give him an
air an air and a spare oh God she was
like she's like maybe once I have his
kid I'll get a tattoo for him but I'm
not sure if I'm going to commit from the
jump and I was like understandable words
to live by girl touche yeah because all
right because we were talking earlier
about the Mir cat I have a Jack and my
husband has from Nightmare Before
Christmas yeah right and those aren't as
on the nose yeah and but like I had a
friend that she she was like yeah like
my husband like I was called my little
otter so she got an otter tattoo they're
divorced now but I'm like well at least
you have an otter tattoo and Otter are
still cute yeah versus just
like
Jonathan W
wamp I'm like tattoos for people the
dangerous game to play it really is
though I've thought about a ring finger
tattoo I may do it we'll see I don't
have to decide right now well and uh
Vance and I are like both those people
that like whenever we have friends that
are like I was think getting this tattoo
we're like what are you doing right now
let's go to a shop 100% me too yeah so
like one of his like dearest friends had
been dating a girl for like a couple of
months and Vance convinced them when
they were like should we get each
other's names tattooed Advance like on
your asses let's
go and they got each other's name name's
tattooed but you know what now they're
they're married and have three children
like I'm going to literally attribute
that to
Vance Vance is the reason Vance is the
one he did that exactly he can have
pride in that all right I'm so sorry I
it's okay we can talk about tattoos for
a long time both of us um but while she
was inspecting his tattoos she had a
heat Spike oh okay which makes sense
with the suppressants wearing off right
and she really started to panic because
um she never got to choose how she got
through them before and like her Alphas
before would bring them on on purpose to
like [ __ ] with her and so she is
starting to panic and he's like hey just
look at me for just a second do you want
me to take you home or do you want me to
take you to Miles what would you like to
do and she's like miles take me to the
house like take me to Miles and so she
do they have a nest at their house they
do but she hasn't seen it yet okay um
which like which makes sense but just
right yeah no they do they've been like
hoping for this for a long time um but
they kind of had given up after
Everett's situation with his scent match
so she is just like dying basically the
whole way to the house she's like losing
her [ __ ] in the back seat and so he
calls miles and like tosses his phone
into the back seat so that he can like
she can can hear his voice um and he
starts talking dirty until they get home
um she rides his face to
completion um Everett knew that Juno
wasn't comfortable with him and so he
didn't even try he just like got out of
the car because it wasn't okay for him
to be there like he was having a hard
time and like went and took a shower he
was like miles has got you you're safe I
imagine like if she's having a heat
Spike like she's perfuming hardcore so
just trying to like keep his composure
and be like I I can't even offer knowing
where she's at right now exactly um and
she eventually like when she comes
through the heat Spike she sees him
she's like I am the worst date ever
Everett like I am so sorry like I
started the night with you and then like
banged somebody else I'm like I hooked
up with someone else I'm so sorry and
he's like sweetheart go spend the night
with miles let him take care of you get
some snuggles just promise me you'll
have breakfast with me with just me in
the morning and she's like
okay um
so um she is super into the situation
with Miles that night and they wind up
having sex for the first time there's
lots of teasing and my notes say organs
but I think it meant orgasms but both
are still true
so my notes say lots of teasing and
organs Happy
Days oh my God I have more questions if
you mean if you actually meant organs
and not orgasms but it also I agree I'm
like I still feel like I'm not fully
surprised if it says organs and not
orgasm it's still accurate um so now
we're back to Ari the professor okay
yeah so he's really struggling which you
know I was like we at 4 right now we
keep packing them in hey yeah we do um
but I so I was like I wonder so quick
question yes are all four of them are
olly [ __ ] Isaac uhuh Everett and my I
wanted to
say Stefan the SED then I was like his
name is by no means Stefan it's every I
knew a swed and his name was Michael and
I was like can
you
be Stefan or something like can you give
me
something Mike the swed come
on you're like Michael's just really not
as Viking as I know like I wanted to be
more robust so the three of them and
then miles yep so all four are they're
in a pack yeah well yes they are a pack
but like all four are in that count that
you were giving earlier yes okay yep Ari
and Julian yep hey YY I'm like legit
excited to see how we how we get there
so Ari um is trying to be professional
and not like stare at Juno or give her
any kind of special treatment or
anything um but he also thinks she
smells great yep and he has noticed new
Alpha Sense on her um and he's like oh
like she's got a pack like
okay um okay never mind she just smells
dence but I'll F does he have a pack he
does not okay so Priya the beta in the
class is still trying to get his
attention and he's like not engaging and
not even like fully realizing it
right that was so unnecessary and [ __ ]
of me well she's kind of [ __ ] so it
turns out that he knows olly oh um so
they worked together before because he
was in adver in and olly worked on a
campaign that he worked on okay and um
so olly comes to pick Juno up after
class and he's like son of a [ __ ] one
of her Alphas is like the nicest dudes
I've ever met [ __ ] this guy and like
damn it [ __ ] so um he had a pack back in
London but he the pack dissolved and he
moved to
Australia um and we don't know what
happened okay but he does not trust
omegas and he does not like them he's
like I have no interest so like she
smells great and she's with great news
Alphas are also not for me not ideal yep
um so weeks are going by she's in her
classes she's getting to know people in
the pack um she is definitely getting
closer to her heat um she's like tension
is building with Isaac in different
ways but they're both still adamant that
like they're not like
that um miles and olly have asked to
help her with her
heat um but
Everett is not like that yet like she
doesn't she's not fully there with him
yeah and so he asks if he can help take
care of her which like I appreciate how
they're going about it in this book
because I feel like there are so many
Omega verse books where it's like and as
soon as she's in heat it doesn't [ __ ]
matter as long as you have a knot it's
good enough versus being like
hey she doesn't feel emotionally safe
with me so we'll leave this to the
people she does feel emotionally safe
with yeah cuz I feel like it's always
just like and she's so delirious with
the fever from the you need the lust I
feel so empty
like fil me Alpha like yeah literally
yes so it is really nice and so she um
they show her the nest they help her set
it up um and is she fully in heat at
this point not yet but it's like
definitely getting closer they give her
free rain and all of their bedrooms um
to go like take their sheets and
comforters and t-shirts and like
you need
yeah um and so she's not in heat yet but
Olli is like let me help you break it in
he's like uh I know how we can make it
smell good
like and um he is trying to talk dirty
and she's he's like I've got something
else for you baby it starts with a K and
then he gets real quiet for a second and
he goes
but but sounds like an
n and she's like are you are you talking
about you're
not well it's so funny because I was
like is he misspelling [ __ ] no
no he meant his
not and it is so awkward starts with a
but it sounds like an it's so awkward
and he's like I'm really bad at this
he's like I'm so sorry I just am so
excited and So eventually
like he is also not like super ripped
and he's like kind of self-conscious
about like being a little like soft
around the middle and like they just
have an incredible encounter and she
realizes like she didn't know that sex
could be like this with an alpha like
it's awkward and they're giggling and
laughing but also like it's tender and
kind and like it feels like care I need
to tell you a story that I've never told
you oh
okay I'm buckling
up it wasn't long post pregnancy oh I
was like heyo it wasn't long sorry
[Laughter]
man and you know getting back into the
swing of things trying to feel sexy
doing your kagle exercises because
things are a little bit looser than they
used to be Everything feels different
yeah and so I literally was like I'm
working on my Kel I want to like bear
down in this sexual moment and I was
like Vance hold
on oh no oh no yeah so he stopped
thrusting so I could bear down and I
just
farted
so literally
mid sex I'm like Vance hold on so he
stops
thrusting just for me a fart at full
volume oh I'm crying and he was like is
that what you were trying to do I was
like literally not at all that just keep
coming
oh my
God the tear streaming down both of our
faces yeah I was going to say I have
little old tears it was a very humbling
moment Jesus CHR trying to be sexy oh my
God I thought I might cry for other
reasons today so I wor waterproof
mascara and not a lot of it oh my God
that's so
good oh my God
okay like so many tears that's so
good
wo okay and we're back we've got this
yes but like that's the beauty of like
building a relationship with someone and
like being able to laugh and just like
do weird stuff yes and just like bodies
are weird and do weird things and
like okay like we can still en like
enjoy ourselves together yeah and like
your body's going to Humble you
regardless for sure oh my god
um so things are continuing to go really
well um and she decides to move into the
pack house because she's been spending
so much time there so she is now moving
in with them um still continued awkward
encounters with Isaac of like she's like
so I I he's like would would you like to
Moot and she's like I would like to moot
like they're like oh my God how do we
talk to each
other um and they have all agreed at
this point that they are committed to
each other but everybody is comfortable
without a bond with her at this point it
so um and they all understand that may
never be ready for a bond and they are
okay with that they've told her like it
truly is up to you um so the bond is not
what makes our relationship here exactly
so Everett always Cooks um he's like the
cook in the house and so she helps him
out in the kitchen and drives him up a
wall because she's like this feels right
we should add this right and everything
turns out incredible and so he's like
scribbling notes in his like recipe book
and it's like two Juno siiz
teaspoons five regular teaspoons like
and like you know it's just really nice
um and um then her heat finally shows up
Oli and Miles help her through it they
make sure that she consents to
everything and even when she is not
Lucid if she's asking for things she
hasn't consented to they won't do it um
and so find creative ways to meet her
needs cuz she's not comfortable with
anal and so in a lucid moment they're
like hey you were asking for anal but
you had said no before so we didn't do
it but it was really really like you
were really upset and we were really
upset so like would you be comfortable
with a butt plug and she's like sure yes
let's do it um and so they're trying to
find creative ways to support her
without um while still making sure she's
fully cons to everything yeah especially
because like Heats you are Delirious so
like the you may not know what you're
asking for yes
absolutely so um she again so refreshing
it's so nice and she knows that she's
safe and that's a brand new experience
for her and so she's just super grateful
for them
um and um Isaac is kind of like all over
the place with Juno being in heat um but
he leaves he leaves the house he gets on
a plane and he doesn't tell the pack
like where he's going or what he's doing
he does occasionally travel for work
Julian it's Julian so it's not outside
the realm of Norm for him to be
gone but he did he found Julian so he
contacted him under like the guys of um
interviewing him for a job but when he
meets him he's like Hey so uh off the
rip uh there is no job I'm here about
Juno and Julian immediately is like I
don't know who the [ __ ] you are but I
will not be speaking to you I don't know
where she is and even if I did I would
not tell you and like gets up to storm
out of the room and he's like no no no
no no we're on the same team here yep
but given that you responded that way I
trust you more yeah 100% um so after
clearing all of that up Isaac realizes
that he's like super [ __ ] because
Julian is precious and very attractive
and clearly in love with Juno and he's
like normally this would be a pack vote
but uh would you like to come home with
me which again is across the country
like you know
so
Juno had to make an executive decision
there yeah and he's like clearly you
still love her and I know that she loves
you yeah so like just come on
on so then Juno it's after her heat she
is she literally runs into like bot runs
into Ari um on the way to class and they
have kind of a sweet moment where he
helps her with her jacket and stuff and
then after class Priya the beta Corners
her and is saying that like Ari should
be with Priya and not Juno um and um
fakes that Juno attacked her like as
AR's coming around the corner Juno had
like put her hand yeah Juno had like put
her hands up because priia was like
getting in her space but like as Ari
came around the corner Priya like
stumbled backwards as if Juno pushed her
yeah and so then immediately priya's in
tears like why would you do that why
would you attack me I don't understand
like what did I do and AR is immediately
believes priia
oh that Juno attacked her that's less
cool and she he's like I thought you
were better than this right but because
of his history he does not trust you
trust omegas in general he's like I
really thought you were better than this
what's wrong with you like why would you
do that um and Juno he like can visibly
see she just shuts down and is like I'm
really sorry Priya I hope that you're
all right and like walks away and he's
like that's weird like yeah um but she's
really upset and by the whole thing and
she gets home and
Isaac immediately is like I found Julian
and like like Ari is forgotten [ __ ] that
guy like shitty day is behind me Yep
this is ahead of me is the best thing
that's ever happened so Julian is a
full-time panic but he gets to the house
there's like a driver it's a mansion
he's like holy [ __ ] like I'm so glad
that Juno has all of this like I'm so
happy for her like I just need to know
that she's safe and then she never has
to hear from me again like I'm just
grateful I get to see her and so as soon
as he steps out of the car Juno like
full body like tackles him and is just
so excited and he says 1 to 10 um and
she's like off the charts I'm so happy
that you're here um and they talk all
night um he's very very nervous around
the other Alphas though so like she
brings Julian into her nest they talk
all night they have a great time but
then the next
morning um Juno is messing with Everett
in the kitchen and Everett growls at her
and Julie J like playfully but Julian's
like halfway out of his seat and he's
like I don't know what the [ __ ] I think
some like Bean pole beta is going to do
but absolutely not like I'm going to try
at least like and um Isaac comes up and
it's like hey I wouldn't let
anybody anywhere near her that would
hurt her like yeah that's not what this
is but we get it like we get it um and
so
then um Julian officially announces that
he's courting Juno so he is now moving
across the country Isaac that turned a
corner quickly yep he's like she's the
one always has been Isaac helps him find
a job for another company cuz he has
connections um Julian and Juno have the
most adorable first date because Julian
is living with them and he initially
tried to live elsewhere and Isaac was
like unacceptable makes no sense yeah so
Julian like by her this big bouquet of
flowers and tries to sneak it into the
house but Juno is in the living room and
he's like look away a and he like leaves
the house with the flowers and then
comes up to the house and rings the
doorbell when it's time for their date
and it's like hi Juno I'm here to pick
you up for our date and like pretends to
introduce him to all the other Alphas as
if it's the first time and it's just
super
cute um but they have a great time um
and he is still he clearly has PTSD he
hasn't worked through so
um Isaac everything's going really well
things are going great um and then Isaac
and Julian kind of have a moment because
Julian won't be physical with Juno um
and Julian is scared that Paca is going
to find her because Eric is in prison
but Andrew is out and so he's like
they're going to track her through him
um so Isaac kind of holds him and is
like everything's going to be okay like
we're going to keep her safe and then
there's kind of a moment where they're
like both about to go for it and um both
kind of seize up and freak out because
Isaac hasn't talked to Miles about that
and so then there's like a whole pack
confrontation not confrontation but like
discussion about it and it's deeply
awkward um
but they're all kind of in the hallway
afterwards and Juno kind of has a moment
where she's like wait a minute did you
bring Isaac here because you're
attracted to him like did you bring him
here for you like what are you what are
your bring Julian here what did I say
you said bring Isaac did Juno asked if
if he brought Isaac here if Isaac
brought Julian here yes thank you um
because he was like into him or like is
this like what are your motives here was
this for me or for you right but then
they clear the air um and everything is
this all the first book yes and then
everything's okay miles and Isaac bang
um lots of roleplay everything's great
um Julian and Juno discover that they
have like an SNM thing but like she's
the Dom for him oh okay that happens
he's never been with a woman before she
coaches him through a lot it's pretty
hot lots of Praise um really feels like
we're we the gas like he's in now like
he is in now um
so then um she and Isaac talk it out
afterwards you know Julian is pack and
it's okay for them to share like if
everybody's into it um
and yeah Everett is panicking about the
whole thing um there's so many people in
this yeah I'm I'm what is he panicking
about about what about Juno being a part
of the thing of the pack because he had
a scent match before yeah but she's been
around for a minute now so like he is
worried that sex with her is not going
to be as good as it was with his scent
match he's like what if it's not as good
with her like what if I'm not actually
as into her um so so he eventually he
gets over it um and his uncle gives him
some advice like the grass is greener
where you water it and he's like bet and
then they bang um okay he tells her
about the scent match yep
okay it's so much it really like I
wasn't lying when I said it really feels
like we like hit the gas in a way that
I'm like yep oh yep uhhuh okay so then
you talk to this person about sex and
then this so like what so like
that's how it feels in the book like we
build and we build and we build and then
it's like we are now committed and we're
all doing this and Julian's here and
like people are moving and relationships
are developing and like now we're all
finally having sex and it's
like okay
yes so your feeling is how I felt
reading the book and I did have to go
back a couple of times and be like who
who is this like oh my God because it is
so much um but every opens up about his
scent match and like explains the
situation to her um and she tells him
about the whole scent sympathetic thing
and that you know just because you were
scent matched doesn't mean that like it
was faded um and so they finally have
sex um but uh she trusts him a lot more
than he feels like he deserves um every
is upset cuz he feels like he was too
rough with her um but she's all good
with it olly comes home they were in the
living room okay olly comes home she
gives him a [ __ ] while she's still
with Everett everything's super sexy
everybody's
happy this is where it gets more messy I
I forgot how messy it was I guess it
gets
Messier it's the end of the semester
we're almost done
I was going to say my bladder is full
we're almost done with part one we're so
close we're so close to done with part
one I was like part one really is
enduring ping it in yep so it's the end
of the semester final
presentations um Ari is
like freaking out about Juno but trying
to stay
focused um Juno is last like on the
random selection for her last
presentation to be graded um and his
best friend who is also a professor is
there um and Juno does incredible on her
presentation um she does a really good
job but he has noticed that she's been
completely shut down with him since the
whole episode with priia mhm um but he
knows he doesn't want an Omega after
what happened with his last pack because
it turns out he had a pack um and then
they found an Omega but he was not into
the Omega and she was not into him but
then he started dating a beta and the
Omega had him kind of thrown out of the
pack because she wasn't comfortable with
that okay to be fair I think I was
combining his trauma
history with oh with stefans with
Everett not Stefan but yeah I think I
was combining he'd had an Omega
versus Ari had had a pack yes but he
never had an Omega so they are walking
out of the room where the presentations
were Juno had already left and he is
with his friend they're walking out and
as they're walking out Priya is
attacking Juno in the
hallway and Juno kind of goes into shock
and is having like a a flashback because
of the situation Ari gets olly to come
get her um and Ari is trying to
apologize to olly and Olly is like priia
has been harassing her for
months you can [ __ ] off like I never
want to hear from you again like this is
enough and so then eventually a few days
later Ari asks to come see her to make
sure that she's okay Isaac says that's
cool they have pack game night and it's
really nice like Ari is like oh damn
like I forgot what it's like to have a
pack like this is really nice these guys
are really great Juno is like I don't
hold anything against Pria it's got to
be really hard to be a female Beta like
I bet that's really sucks I made it
worse cuz I wasn't very nice to her also
like what she did wasn't okay but like I
can have compassion for her that like
well we re respect her being an adult
about it we can um and everyone is super
nice to him um um and um she explains to
him what happened that like this pack
has taken her in after the the last pack
and then Ari realizes that um he [ __ ]
all over a chance to like have a family
again to like have a Brotherhood and and
be connected to people um because Juno
is his scent match he had just been in
denial about it all this time and on his
way out he's like oh but also she
doesn't need me like she has this pack
and like I have to accept that way to be
a martyr yep so then
um Isaac says to Juno like what better
way to show him like the mistake that he
made cuz she's like why did you let him
stay here and he's like he needed to
know what he was missing he needed to
know what he did and she was like damn
that's dark like okay okay so then um
things are just going really well
they're having a great time but then
they get put into gossip magazines after
a
fundraiser because they have so much
money I know it's so messy it's so messy
sorry I was like really tracking with
this for like probably the first 75% and
now I'm like what the [ __ ] and there's a
whole second book but at this point I'm
like just we're we're getting this is
literally the very very end yeah I'm
what a what a journey this has been they
go to this
photos are taken photos are and P finds
her and reaches out to Isaac to threaten
him because they want her back I mean
kind of assume Paca is going to be like
the the Cliffhanger at the end but the
and that's the end of the first six to
Mid night of like them like being like
you know like we do well for ourselves
but we're not billionaires to like there
are photos being taken of us gossip
magazines and going into gossip Rags
you're like what yeah she turned it up
at the end she at the end she really did
it had this like cozy read feel for like
the first 80% and then it was like like
okay but that's where it ends is he gets
Isaac gets a call from
paow that's how the first book ends yeah
I think we should save our rating until
the next episode I'm comfortable with
that I don't think we have to choose
different rating scales for the same
universe I'm comfortable with that and I
feel like I need to make a fully formed
decision on if anything new pops up in
the second book which is totally fair
for our rating system yeah and also I I
do also have to
pee we've been talking for so long I
just realized like we've been talking
for so long and we're human too yes yeah
so all that said it is a bit of a an
Abrupt ending to be first installment of
this two-part duet uh join us back here
in 2 weeks for the second part of the
duet no guarantees it's less chaotic
than where we we just ended dare I say
I'm betting it's going to be more
chaotic so I'm glad to have more wine my
outline is shorter so hopefully that
means it's less chaotic but I can make
no promises you and I both know the
length of an outline does not equate to
the chaos of a book there's no
correlation there's no
correlation but all that thank you for
joining us yeah like whole journey I
have things that I'm speculating about
but I'm also like I want to hold it
until book two fair to to see where
where all this lands but yeah the fact
that we like had two new pack people
join and like the last like 20%
mhm what a journey it adds a layer of
chaos that I didn't feel appropriately
prepped for by the first part of the
book I didn't feel appro rately prepped
and I didn't read the book I was
trusting you and I still trust you
please hear me but I I I did feel the
shift and in the chaos
yeah I even felt a shift in my energy
that I didn't even realize until I was
like oh I'm talking a lot faster but
that's because the book feels faster I
was like okay okay okay you were like
that I was like uh-huh I'm tracking I
got this and then you were like hold on
I'm not tracking anymore please help me
[ __ ] hell I needed to take
notes I did take notes yeah I might need
you to send them to me um all right all
