I leaned down so we were eye to eye – so there was no fucking way she could miss how serious I was about this. “I will kill anyone who hurts you, Lucy. Anyone.”
She closed her eyes for just a second and when she opened them, there wasn’t a single shred of sanity left. “I need you to fuck me, Cas. Please…please help me.”
My grip on her throat tightened. “Right here?”
“Yes,” she breathed. “Just like this.”
Right where I killed people – where blood still pooled underneath her feet.
I looked at Liam then and raised an eyebrow. “She’s yours, and I never should have touched her. What do you want me to do?”
“She is mine,” Liam agreed as he leaned over Lucy, grabbing me by the back of my neck and yanking me closer until we were nose to nose. “You are also mine. And I can’t do this alone.”
I closed my eyes and tried not to read too much into that, but how could I not? Liam was telling me there was room for me…if she wanted it.
Opening my eyes, I dropped my gaze to his lips and tried not to get distracted. I had to warn him. “I don’t know if I can ever go back to the way things were.”
“Finally.” Liam sank his teeth into my bottom lip before licking away the sting. “I want you just as consumed by her as I am, Cas.”
I nodded, knowing I was already drowning in this obsession. Giving myself over to it completely wouldn’t be difficult.
Whatever Liam wanted, Liam got.
CHAPTER 5
Lucy
Nothing these two said ever made any fucking sense.
They wanted me to believe all this insanity was real – that it wasn’t just pheromone induced, but I didn’t think I could do that. They didn’t really know me or what it was like to live with me. Neither of them understood just how annoying I could be when I got obsessed with something, or how particular I was, but right now I couldn’t make myself care about any of it.
Not when they were staring at each other like that.
Liam had his hand wrapped in Cas’s black hair as he licked his lips, blood staining his tongue from that vicious bite.
I clenched my thighs together and tried to remember I was cuffed to a freezing cold metal chair in a murder basement. Sticky blood under my feet was a harsh reminder of what Cas was doing in here before I’d interrupted.
But the way those two were looking at each other right now while their pheromones seeped into me was all I could think about. It didn’t matter that they were angry and territorial instead of seductive. My body was still reacting to them like I was about to go into heat again.
My skin was flushed despite the cold and I felt sweat drip down between my breasts.
I was breathing hard, frozen as I watched them. It felt like I was interrupting something, like I was getting a glimpse of everything I’d suspected and it almost felt like there was no place for me here when they looked at each other like that.
Like they wanted to devour each other just as much as they wanted to devour me.
Liam grabbed Cas’s hair and yanked back, kissing him with so much passion and violence my whole fucking body clenched, making me groan as the desperate need of this stupid omega body tried to burn me alive until I was nothing but ash.
They were acting like I wasn’t even here, kissing each other like this was something they did all the time. I assumed they were like this, but the way they’d fucked me before made me wonder if I was wrong.
A small part of me was relieved to know I wasn’t completely losing my touch, but at the same time…
It felt like they’d lied to me.
They kept trying to convince me I was the reason for all their psychotic shit, but right now, it didn’t feel like they would have room for me in their relationship.
Was I just an omega to satisfy their needs, or did they actually care about me?
I forced myself to look away. It was none of those things obviously. My omega pheromones were just messing with their heads and fucking up the relationship they already had.
