Chapter 24
A SECRET CHAT
Crush
Hey, Zen. Do you happen to write books that people request?
Zenith
Not usually, no. It depends on my muse. Why?
Crush
I would like to commission you to write one. A romance.
Zenith
I heard that you found an omega recently, but isn’t it weird to want a book written about you two?
Crush
No no, not about us. My omega wants a very particular kind of story.
Zenith
Give me the rough idea, and let me decide.
Crush
He says, and I quote, “An alpha-omega enemies to lovers romance about a single dad omega, Ulgon, and his enemy, an alpha dragon shifter named Burnzinger.”
Zenith
...
Crush
Ulgon wants to bone Burnzinger pretty badly but is mad that he even wants to. They end up doing it anyway, and they catch feelings.
Zenith
Let me guess—he wants Ulgon to be big and muscular instead of looking like the usual small omega.
Crush
Bingo. Make it steamy, if you can. Whatever that means.
Zenith
... This is... a moral dilemma.
Crush
Take some time to think about it.
Zenith
If I pick this up, I can’t breathe a single word about it to our friends
Crush
Right. Not if you want to stay in the betting pool. I’ll pay you to write this book, of course. Whether you publish it afterward is up to you.
Zenith
Give me two days. I’ll get back to you with an answer then.
Crush
Thanks.
P.S. If you decide to write this book, please do not include any Butler Brothers pickup lines. Thanks.
Zenith
Did you seriously think I would??
