My brows furrow as Remi sits up, pulling me with him so that I’m not straddling his knees. His cock hits in an entirely different place, causing me to moan but I quickly resume my angry expression. “Maverick was going to be first.” I pout, knowing full well that whatever order they go in, I couldn’t care less. As long as I get all of them.
River laughs, a sound cut off and replaced with a groan. I look over to see Asani mercilessly pounding into his ass, Mateo’s cock hanging inches from the Alpha’s lips. River’s mouth is coated in cum, the Alpha eagerly licking it clean. “Darius was first,” River pushes out and then groans again. His fingers dig into the blankets of my nest as his eyes roll into the back of his head, his body going limp. “Fucking hell, I think he fucks harder than Mateo.”
I know for a fact that Asani and Mateo are now going to have a competition to see who fucks harder. With the new power running through our pack, it could be either one. I hope I become part of the competition alongside River and Remi. My body sags with exhaustion even as I fight it. Everyone laughs as I groan, my lids closing when I lean against Remi’s chest, mumbling about my Beta.
When I wake, I’m sprawled across my nest, Maverick at my side as he draws little circles up and down my spine. River is still getting gloriously fucked, Mateo definitely trying to outdo Asani. I’m all too happy to watch as the roar that belts from my Alpha’s chest rumbles through the room.
Remi and Darius are sitting at the edge of the nest, both of them gloriously naked as my Beta leans into my Alpha’s side. Both of them are gently touching and exploring each other, light kisses passing between them as Darius turns his heated gaze to me. Remi wraps his hand around Darius’ cock, my Beta letting out a strangled sound of pleasure before he begins fucking into the hand.
“Ready for me, kitten?”
I nod, barely able to move from the fight with Calista. My limbs are sore and heavy, the scratches she left on my body and my cheek aching. The pain is less than when Darius dragged me into a shower earlier, Asani covering my cuts in an ointment that would help me heal faster.
“I need your words, Nepheline. If we need to postpone-”
My head shoots up as I glare at Maverick, my Alpha who thinks he isn’t enough for me. “Tonight. You are mine. You told me that maybe you were always mine. Prove it. Show me. Show them.” My words come out slurred but I’m determined to take one more dick. Maverick’s bond with me is just as important as the others, the heady scent of sex and desire thrumming through the room.
I push up off the plush blankets and flop over, grinning when Maverick chuckles. Still, he follows, hovering over me for a few seconds, brushing the cut along my cheek. “You are worth more than you give yourself credit for too, Nepheline. I am honored to be yours.” Then he surges forward, his cock sinking into my greedy pussy as I wrap my legs around his waist. His hands move to my waist and then slip down to the back of my thighs.
No words pass between us as he fucks into me, making love with my body. My head falls back as his fingers dig into my ass, my hands pressed against his chest. Unlike my other mates, there is no vicious need to come, just a desire to be linked with Maverick. I need him like I need water. He is my voice of reason, my safe space. “Mark me, Mave. Make me yours.”
He continues pumping into me in slow, sensual strokes, drawing out my pleasure until I’m teetering on the edge. Then he leans down to place his lips right by Asani’s bite and sinks his teeth into my skin. I can’t help but let go, holding onto him as I come. My body shakes with the force of my orgasm, Maverick pushing deeper inside of me until his knot begins to expand, widening just inside my entrance.
Then I feel it.
His release coating my pussy walls, rope after rope of cum filling me as he continues to rock his hips against mine, his tongue licking my newest bond. Energy thrums through me as I feel each and every one of my mates, the bonds singing with renewed strength.
Guttural groans follow my orgasm as I look around to see my Alphas fulfilled and sated, Remi eagerly licking Darius’ release off his hand. It hurt earlier to know that Darius’ only bond would be with me but I can see that he won’t be left out. Not with the way that smile is creeping onto his lips.
I relax against the pillows as Maverick pulls me onto my side, my other mates scooting closer and casing us in. I hold my breath for tomorrow, for the end of my nightmare and the beginning of an era.

SILAS
Two Days Later
I dial the number again, growling when it goes straight to voicemail. No one is answering my damn calls. Not Kylan, the bastard who is reaching for my rightful seat. Not Darius, the Beta I gave a better life to. And not even my damn mother who only has the power she does because I shared that serum with her.
From the new batch too.
The good ole Alpha doctor has come in handy, especially with his newer experimental trials and the subject he’s currently working on.
I chuck the device across the room, smiling when the screen cracks as it clatters to the floor. One of the Betas enters what used to be the council room, a room I have taken over to lead the pack of the Forbidden to take over the Nightshades. It hasn’t happened yet but I can feel how close victory is. Even with the few Alphas and that fucking Beta who won’t return my calls.
“What is it, Benjamin?” He’s one of the last Betas I have to rely on, several of the other ones dead from their inability to measure up. I don’t ask for much—just complete submission and absolute obedience. It is their fault if they fail. “Benjamin, if you came in here with bad news, then-”
The Beta shakes his head, obviously terrified to be bringing me information. “Alpha, someone has come to see you. They say it’s urgent.”
A dark chuckle bubbles from my throat as I grab the first thing next to me—a glass vase—and chuck it across the room. It shatters by his head, shards catching his cheek, neck, and arm. He does well not to flinch as I stalk forward, the serum running through my veins causing me to half-shift. “They can wait.”
“Actually, I can’t.” Pierson pushes through, roughly discarding the Beta outside of the room and shutting it behind him. He’s drenched in sweat, naked from head to toe as he stalks forward, the elder shaking from what looks like a long run in his wolf form. Dirt and mud are caked into his skin, leaves dotted through his hair as he moves toward me. “Whatever plans you have been building won’t work. The magic has returned to our lands and it favors your brother.”
“Not fucking possible. I have done everything correctly. I may have been exiled but that Luna will be mine. I even sent her a fucking present.”
Pierson lets out a nervous cackle. “Are you talking about that fucking Beta wolf? Do you have any idea who he is?”
“Do not fucking shout at me. I know very well because the Alpha before me made sure to rip that fucker from her grip. He’s loyal to me and his only orders were to bring her back. Darius is the perfect trap.” I lick my lips, just imagining her supple body in my hands as the Beta joins us in the nest. Nepheline screaming on my knot has been something I’ve been fantasizing about for weeks.
