“What’s happening?” asked Alex, throwing his shirt and pants back on.
“We’re ready outside,” announced Mason, his eyes lit up. “You’ll know soon enough, Alex.”
“I’m literally only wearing an oversized t-shirt of Jack’s,” I muttered, giving up and leaning into Laurent’s strong arms. He gave me a peck on the forehead after I stopped resisting him.
“Good girl, just settle down,” he said, walking out the front door with me still in his arms. I was being carried like a baby, but it’s not like I could walk much while in heat. It was too painful.
Blade was driving, and Mason settled into the passenger seat. I sat between Laurent and Alex in the back. It was weird being in a van without pants or underwear on. I tried combing my hair with my fingers but soon gave up. I hoped we weren’t doing anything fancy. But if we were, I would never forgive these alphas for not warning me. I looked like a hot mess.
“Where’s Jack?” I asked.
“We fought him and his pack. They’re gone now, thank god,” said Mason.
My heart dropped. I opened my mouth to start screaming at them.
“He’s lying,” sighed Laurent before I could explode.
“I hope so,” I said. Mason was chuckling as he drove. “It’s not funny, Mason.”
“It’s cute to see you riled up,” he said, his eyes on the rearview mirror, watching me.
“Pay attention to the road,” I said, rolling my eyes. Alex laid a hand on my thigh, comforting my frazzled self.
“It’s us,”called Mason, knocking on the door of the hotel room.
I was pleasantly surprised they had taken me to the best four-star hotel in Howl’s Edge. Jack swung the door open, a huge beaming smile on his face. He pulled me in for a hug. He had on a white robe, and he smelled fresh as can be.
“I got us an Alpha-Suite room,” he declared. “Do you like your heat gift?”
I didn’t know heat gifts were a thing until now.
As I walked in, I admired the wide expanse of the bed in the middle with fresh, clean sheets and the giant living room with a kitchen. I had never been to a hotel like this before. Even when I was in the Royal Pack, we hadn’t gone out during the short time I was with them. The rug was soft under my toes, and there was a long sofa fit for a large pack.
I looked back at Alex, and I caught the slight twitching of his jaw.Oh, he looked annoyed by Jack taking charge like this.
“I love it,” I said, kissing Jack.
Jack smiled and led me toward the large bathroom. The walls were blindingly white, as well as the tile floors. I felt self-conscious as I stepped inside. I gasped when I saw the enormous wall-to-wall tub covered in bubbly water with Ryan and Liam sitting inside.
“Join us,” said Liam, smiling.
“Hell, yes!” I said, removing my shirt and getting naked. I stepped into the bath, allowing the warm bubbly water to coat my shoulders as I sank inside between Liam and Ryan.
“I’ll get our queen some grapes or whatever fruit we have here,” said Jack.
I moaned, closing my eyes. Jack chuckled at my response.
“We might as well join, too,” said Alex, stripping off his clothes. Mason sat in there naked in all his tattoo glory. He sat across from me, his feet touching mine. It was a giant hot tub fitting all of us.
Alex leaned back against the tub, resting his arms on the walls.
“Shouldn’t we take up Jack’s offer on the bigger house?” asked Mason. “I mean, we need the extra space for our omega. Look how she’s relaxing over there.”
The water was indeed easing my cramps, but I was still very horny. It was a regular side-effect from a heat that didn’t allow an omega to see things clearly except for needing a knot.
I didn’t mind the horny part. I just hated the painful aspect of it.
I moved over and sat on Liam’s lap, my favorite spot today. Except he was naked this time, and I could feel his heart pumping like crazy against my bare back.
