“M-me?” Candied apple filled my nose, a sweetness I couldn’t escape.

“Yes, you. I can’t even breathe or think in my home because you’re everywhere.” I knew I sounded frustrated, perhaps bordering on angry, but it kept coming out regardless. “Even when you’re not around, you linger, and when I leave, you follow. I have carved out my entire life after suffocating under the weight of expectation from my family, moved across the damn country so I could stop doing what others expected of me, and then you appear. A mate, decreed by fate, and solidified into our lives with a bond none of us had a choice in. I refuse to fall in line with you.”

“I’m not asking you to,” she said softly, her arms wrapped around herself. “I just want us to get along. You don’t have to like me as a mate, but we’re still pack and we should be friends. Is that so hard?”

“Yes,” I hissed. “Because I don’t know how to. You provoke every desire and I refuse to follow that path because it’s what fate decided. If things were different, if?—”

“I provoke your desire?”

Those fucking perfect lips were parted, her breath coming fast, only drawing my attention to her breasts, to how they’d been pressed together when she’d crossed her arms. Her scent was trying to drown me, to steal my senses and coax me to give in. “I don’t know what you want me to say.”

She swallowed hard. “Maybe I don’t want you to say anything. Maybe I want you to prove it.”

Fuck. Me.

Callie surged up on her toes the second I leaned toward her, putting that perfect, delicious mouth to mine in a kiss that had me backing her up against the wall. The moan out of her melted what little resistance I’d been clinging to. When her hands dragged me closer, inviting me to take, I listened, scooping her up until she was pinned and kissing me with a desperation I’d thought only I had for her.

Apparently I was wrong about that.

Ihad taken a chance. A desperate one that was against my better judgment but also made my instincts sing. Confirmation that he wanted me had snuck into the heart of me and lit a match to the buried embers there. Even if I wasn’t sure of his mind, his body certainly left no question. Amir touched me like he craved me down to the depths of his soul, and for all that his confusing rejections and reactions twisted me up, I knew for certain Jerry had never touched me the way Amir was now.

His hands cradled my thighs, trapping me between his body and the wall while he devoured my kiss like he couldn’t get enough. I clung hard, hooking my elbow behind his neck and whimpering against his lips, trying to keep up. Something about having my feet off the ground and a warm alpha body pressed to me reduced me to my base form. Just an omega who needed her alpha, nothing more, nothing less.

He nudged my head to the side with his and arced down to get his teeth on my throat, sending a cascade of pleasure sliding over my nerves. Slick dampened my core with every delicious grind of his hips against me. Relief poured through me at knowing he still wanted me without the influence of the heat or the urging of the contract.

Amir set me on my feet and dropped to his knees, hoisting the hem of my nightgown. “Are you seriously running around with no panties?”

“They get in the way.”

He looked up at me and I braced one hand on his shoulders just to stay upright with the amount of fire in those eyes. “Tell me to stop right now if you don’t want me.”

“But I do want you.” The words felt thick on my tongue. I’d never been particularly good at voicing what I wanted, but I knew Amir wouldn’t let me get away with that.

A second later, my thigh was propped on his shoulder and his mouth was buried against me. I made an absolutely feral sound when his tongue flicked my clit, and slid my hands into his hair as he lifted my other thigh. He kept me pinned like that, his hands holding my ass while his mouth ruined me. I only remembered bits and pieces of having him during the heat, but my body apparently kept the knowledge of every touch stored away; I felt like I was going to burst into flames.

If I had told past Callie she’d have had two different alphas in the same day eating her out, she probably would’ve fainted.

I mewled and squirmed, holding onto him with shaking hands and quivering thighs. His thumb stroked through my folds before pressing into me. I leaned my head against the wall, trying to catch my breath while he seemed entirely intent on making that impossible. Amir alternated sucking on my clit with rapid flicks of his tongue until I broke apart in his grip in a rush of slick. He groaned and kept lapping at me until I was half-delirious.

Amir got to his feet, folding my legs with the movement to brace against the wall, my knees hooked over his arms, leaving me totally exposed.

“Be a good girl and undo my pants for me.”

I opened the button and zipper with shaking fingers and extracted his cock from the confines of his clothing. He wasted no time getting it inside me, choking off his name on my lips as he filled me in one swift motion.

“Fucking hell, princess.”

I grabbed tight to his hair and dragged his mouth to mine, his sun-baked cedar filling my senses. “Give me everything,” I demanded. “I can take it.”

I only half believed my own words when he fucked in hard and I saw stars. Clinging desperately for some sort of anchor barely helped as Amir drove into me with every ounce of friction there had been between us since Kai had bonded me.

I knew sex wasn’t the answer to everything, but it probably wouldn’t hurt the situation. He needed to get out his frustrations and I would much rather he do it this way than how he had been.

My core tightened with every thrust, and when he turned his head to bite my wrist where I was holding on to his hair, I came all over his cock in another gush of slick and a scream I couldn’t muffle. Pleasure sparked up my arm and straight to my clit as Amir sucked at the scent gland there, his hips still grinding against me.

Helplessly pinned, I could only let myself be open to everything he wanted to pour into me. My brain was going to melt out my ears at this rate. The glide of him sinking into me on repeat soothed the deepest parts of my mind. My alpha wanted me and he was taking me. I couldn’t breathe well enough through my panting to purr.

Amir released my wrist and I whimpered at the loss of his bite.
