“I wasn’t drunk at the bar when Amir agreed to be pack,” she said, trying to find some point of attack that would work on the pack lead. And she wasn’t wrong. She might have had a slight buzz at that point, but Amir had been sober.

Enzo dragged a hand down his face.

Amir leaned down and whispered into Issa’s ear, causing her to giggle.

“What’s so funny?” Ax asked as the two lunged to their feet, hands entwined, and ran for the stairs.

Issa skidded to a stop making Amir have to stop, as well, or risk pulling her off her feet.

“Since we’re drunk and you aren’t…we’re going up to the nest,” Issa said. And fuck…her defiant smirk made my dick twitch in my pants.

“Since you’re worried about consent, we’ll let you three decide whether you want to join in our drunken shenanigans.”

And with that, they giggled again like teenagers and darted for the stairs that would lead them up to the omega quarters. To the nest. The pack bed that would fit all five of us comfortably.

“Nah. I’m joining them. I’ll blame my inebriated state later,” Ax said, pushing to his feet and eating up the space with his long legs.

“Idiot,” Enzo muttered with a shake of his head.

He turned to me and cocked a brow.

Swiveling my head, I looked to the stairs, to my pack lead then shrugged. “Fuck it. If nothing else, I’ll just watch and fuck my own hand. Win-win and I won’t feel guilty later.”

“Seriously?” Enzo called after me. “I thought you were supposed to be the commonsense of the pack.”

“That was assigned against my will,” I called back as I took the stairs two at a time.

That was bullshit. Enzo knew it as well as I did. Iwasthe commonsense alpha of the pack. But that was before. Before Issa. Before Amir. Before I’d tasted Amir’s lips while Issa stroked my cock.

CHAPTER 21

Amir

Enzo wasn’t completely off base as far as how much Issa and I had to drink tonight. But it wasn’t liquid courage spurring this moment. It was Issa. It was the alphas’ pheromones swimming in the air and stirring my omega.

It was the sense of rightness that had washed over me when Issa had declared me pack.

Then adorably asked whether it was okay for her to do such a thing without speaking to me or her alphas.

Ouralphas. They would be my alphas, hopefully before the night was over.

Ax had followed us upstairs and to the omega wing that would be mine when I officially moved in. I had made love to Issa with my mouth in this room once, but our scents were beginning to fade and it smelled too neutral, like some chemical cleaner that had been used before any of themknew I existed.

Did that mean they’d had someone else in this room before me? Had they courted other omegas? Fucked other omegas?

A possessive rage sizzled in my veins and sent my hormones on a rampage. Bite. Pack. Breed.

None of us had discussed our future as far as parenthood, but I was in no hurry. I wasn’t even sure whether I wanted kids. Not that I didn’t like them, I’d just never spent much time picturing myself pregnant or as a parent. Something else I could thank my parents for – they’d never made me feel as if my only role in life was to carry a pup for my future alphas.

That didn’t mean I didn’t want each of these alphas to sink their teeth into my shoulder, to knot me, to bond me to them and to their pack, to make me Issa’s omega, their omega.

I had definitely spent more time with Issa than the alphas, but they worked a lot during the week. She and I spent a lot of time on the phone, FaceTiming, or texting for hours on end.

That was nothing compared to being with her, touching her, kissing her, having her in my arms.

Having her tight, wet pussy wrapped around my cock.

I was a few weeks away from my next heat. What I really wanted was to be settled here, to get my nest ready before that time came. I knew Enzo, Ax, and Cyrus would have zero problem with helping me through the fever and pain of my cycle. And there was no way I would want to go through that without my sweet beta present.
