“Oh, shit. I didn’t mean to interrupt.”

Before the door closed, I snapped out, “Come.”

He moved stiffly into the room, bringing that delectable fragrance with him. “Ava, what’s going on?”

Jesse struggled to sit up, sweat soaking through his T-shirt. “Heat,” he gasped out. “Rut.”

I was already wrestling out of my shirt, trying to escape the growing warmth.

“Heat? But…”

“Bryce,” I growled, my brain finally supplying me with his name. “Help me.”

Jesse was fighting a losing battle with his instincts now that I was down to panties, and Bryce looked like he wasn’t faring any better, his eyes wide, hands flexing at his sides before he curled them into fists.

“Not good for the baby.” Jesse snatched up one of the pillows, burying his face into it for a few breaths. “We have to break the heat quickly.”

“What the hell do you mean we have to break it?” Bryce hissed. “She just met us. How is she going into heat if she’s pregnant?”

“Alpha,” I whined, the throbbing warmth shifting into a burn I desperately wanted to be rid of. “Please. Help me.”

“I don’t want to hurt you. You don’t know me.”

Another whine erupted. “It already hurts.”

“Okay.” Bryce took a tentative step forward. “I’m here. What do you need?”

“Touch.”

Bryce gathered me up, cradling me so that I could shove my nose against his throat. It wasn’t enough, not by a long shot, but his hand on the back of my neck and his arm wrapped around me pushed back the sharpest edge of pain. At least for a second, before my body registered that I was close to an alpha and not getting everything I needed.

Bite.

Bite.

Bite.

I listened to the compulsion, sinking my teeth into the scent gland on his throat, cranberry and rum bathing my tongue. I moved like a woman possessed, pressing us as close together as I could.

“Sweetness,” Jesse gasped out. He tried to tug me away, but I only clung tighter to Bryce. My next whine was muffled against his skin and I rocked my hips where they met Jesse’s as he tried to untangle me. “You can’t bond him. You just met.”

My instincts didn’t care about that part, the words instantly melting away in my memory. When I unlocked my teeth from the bite, I moved right to Bryce’s mouth, and he kissed me with a ferocity I felt down to my toes, the heat rising in a fresh wave.

“Please, please, please,” I begged. “Alphas.”

“Ava.” Jesse’s voice was rough in my ear. “I’m on the edge of a rut. Tell me what you want.”

“Touch,” I said, repeating the same instruction I had given Bryce. That was the only thing I needed from them. Well, maybe not theonlything. “Knot.”

Jesse groaned, his scent shifting to something darker, stronger. He grabbed my hips, shoving my panties to the side after a brief battle with his own clothing. The first contact of cock and pussy had my instincts singing. I pushed back before he could move forward, seating myself all the way onto him, my slick easing the way in a flood of desire. I dragged Bryce closer again. His scent shifted, too. The descent of his teeth into my skin had my pussy convulsing around Jesse.

Lust and protectiveness went off like a firework in my chest, everything that Bryce was settling into me.

Jesse’s grip tightened, pushing me into Bryce’s arms before he set a steady pace.

Yes.

Perfect.
