My walls clench onto Leon’s cock while Mikhail’s tip latches inside my throat. They both roar out at the same time, reaching theirs peaks while my body trembles from a mix of humiliation, pain, and pure heat.

Liquid fire explodes deep inside my pussy and throat as they shatter together.

Mikhail pulls out first, leaving a trail of thick, creamy semen on my lips and chin. Leon stays buried inside me a moment longer, holding my hips in a bruising hold.

Pulling out of me, Leon lets my naked body slump to the floor.

The salty bitterness of Mikhail’s essence burns on my tongue. I’m surprisingly fine even though they hadn’t bothered being gentle with me.

This is another sign of an omega’s heat. Their hormones heal them faster, allowing them to survive an alpha’s brutal assault on their weaker bodies.

The air around me is a mix of our perfumes and pheromones. Strangely, the fragrances comfort me as I curl into a ball. A deep exhaustion comes over me, leaving me incapable of moving.

As the haze of lust fades from my senses, I realize what just happened to me. I let three rogue alphas take me and even begged them for it.

My humiliation deepens. I can’t even stand up on my two legs and gaze into the eyes of my tyrants.

My only consolation is that it happened with these strangers. I didn’t have to beg Callum to help me with my heat. A self-deprecating grimace spreads on my lips as I think of my pitiful life.

The sound of retreating footsteps makes me aware of my surroundings. They’re finally done with me.

A moan escapes me as I try to move. Every muscle in my body aches. Exhaustion overtakes my mind. Even though I’m left all alone in the cold, dark basement, I’m relieved to be able to close my eyes and let the shadows swallow me up once again.

Lucia

My eyes blink open to a dark ceiling. The basement is colder than before, or maybe it feels that way because I’m buck naked and missing the heat from the three walls of pure muscle.

Loud gasps escape me as I try to sit up. Every inch of my body aches, reminding me of the wild sex marathon I was put through.

Scraps of my wedding gown lie scattered around me, mocking me. I can’t believe how easily Leon hacked through the yards of silk and lace within seconds.

He had the same blade gliding across my arms, neck, and breasts. His deftness with that dagger sends a chill through me. Next second, my core comes alive with a massive throb. My thighs press together tight, reminding me that my heat’s not over yet.

Still, what the hell is wrong with me? I wonder. How can fear trigger such a massive arousal in me?

I caress my skin, searching for cuts and nicks.

My arms and breasts are free of the slightest scratches but the skin on my neck and shoulders have a few puckered ridges. It’s a moment before I realize what they are.

Bite marks.

My eyes widen with the realization that I was bitten last night. The burning haze of lust barely let me feel the pain but they’re most definitely there.

An alpha’s bite sows the seed of a bond between him and the omega. If they’re in love, it creates a powerful tie, binding them in an unbreakable relationship that stays strong throughout their lives.

I’m not sure how I feel about being bitten by the monstrous alpha and his brothers. They hate me and will not hesitate to discard me after they’re done with me.

Cold washes over me at the mere thought. My heart feels heavy even though they’re strangers to me. You have to be strong, Lucia, I tell myself. You can’t let your hormones dictate your feelings and emotions.

My thoughts soon stray over to my brother.

How would Callum react when he sees those bonding marks on me? There’s a chance he’ll kill me out of pure rage when he realizes another alpha stole his claim over me during my first heat.

Letting out a sigh, I look around my dark surroundings, trying to figure out where I’ve been brought. The lurking shadows in every corner give me no clue as to how big this place is. I can’t even tell how much time passed since I was brought here.

I tug at the shackles binding my wrists. The chains linked to them clang loudly and continue to restrain me.
