He laughed like I was being the silliest omega in the entire world. “No.”

I went somewhere else with the fourth one. Sinking, melting into the sensations of his mouth slowly exploring me. So gentle compared to the previous orgasm, just like the way he kissed my clit and slid his tongue inside me. It took so long, the gradual build as he took his time, content to just worship me forever.

“That was a good one, wasn’t it?” He stroked the outside of my thighs up and down. “Four.”

“Aleks.” My cheeks were wet and my whole body couldn’t stop trembling. “I need you. Please. Please, please, please.”

He undressed us both slowly before he finally pushed himself into me. It wasn’t even about fucking. It was being able to feel his weight on mine, kiss the lips that tasted of me and sense his racing heartbeat. The closeness. The way he looked at me.

“How do I feel?” I whispered.

I had to know if I affected him the way he affected me.

Aleks pressed his forehead against mine. “Whatever you’re feeling now, trust me when I say that I’m feeling it a thousand times over.”

I kissed my way down the column of his neck, the muscles taut as he moved inside me. I breathed him in, wanting to remember how he felt in this exact moment. He was the edge of the breathtaking cliff, an impossible drop to the crystal clear water below.

A hand in mine, a promise to never let go and a countdown of 3, 2…

I gasped, the blue of the water rushing up towards me transforming into Aleks’ eyes. He kissed me hard, fingers threading through mine.

“Can you give me one last one?”

“No.” Was he serious?

Undeterred, he hooked an arm under my knee and my hips lifted. My breath hitched as his cock hit a different angle. His thrusts were growing more urgent, closer and closer to that cliff edge.

“Fuck, I’m gonna—”

It was the warm flood of him inside me that did it. Knowing he was marking me, filling me. I pulled him tight against me, nails digging into his hips as I rocked against him. Squeezing my eyes tightly as I chased that final, spiralling frisson all the way down my spine.

We both collapsed back onto the couch, utterly spent.

His thumb caressed my lower lip. “Five.” He smirked, looking extremely satisfied with himself.

Whatever. He earned it.

REMY

Hazel seemed lighter after sharing what happened after her old alpha. I think it was a good sign that she had finally jumped Aleks’ bones so hard I had to air out the apartment when I got home.

I told Aleks (privately) that he did a good job because Hazel looked extremely well-fucked. Aleks replied with a strangled “thanks”.

He must not have been ready for that aspect of pack life yet.

He would have to adjust quickly because there was a pressing issue we needed to address.

“We need a group chat,” I declared to everyone the next night.

We had already shared our locations with each other and I liked opening the map throughout the day and seeing where everyone was.

It was time to take it to the next level.

Hazel and Aleks were cuddling on the couch. Night duty was going to keep him out of the nest. It was almost time for him to leave and a very pouty Hazel was wrapped around him so tightly I wondered if there was a crowbar handy to pry them apart. Ben was in the middle of cooking char kway teow hoping to cheer her up.

“What should we call it?” Hazel asked.
