The words hang in the air between us. Thane's eyes widen, a mix of shock and unmistakable interest flashing across his features. He glances at Wraith, clearly unsure how to react.

Wraith, for his part, looks absolutely bewildered. Horrified, even.

Shit.

His hands move in sharp, agitated signs.I don't want to eat you anymore!

Wait. That's what he thought I meant?

Thane's head snaps toward him. "You wanted toeather?"

Wraith stares awkwardly at Thane.

"I kind of figured, but I wasn't sure," I admit.

When we'd first met, Wraith had definitely looked at me like he wasn't sure if he wanted to devour me, fuck me, hold me, or all three at the same time. It had scared me back then, before I realized the feral alpha just had no experience with omegas and didn't know what to do with me.

Now, I want that.

Just not in the fatal way.

Thane pinches the bridge of his nose, letting out a long-suffering sigh. "Okay, for the record,thisis why I had concerns." He gestures at Wraith, exasperation clear in his voice. "Theseare the concerns."

My face burns as I look between Thane and Wraith.

"I... um..." I stammer, suddenly at a loss for words. How do I explain what I want without sounding completely depraved? "Thane, could you maybe help...?"

Thane clears his throat, shifting his weight as he turns to face Wraith. "She wants you to use your mouth on her," he begins slowly, his deep voice rougher than usual. "Down... there. What she did with you in the cave, only… in reverse."

Wraith's head tilts, those intense blue eyes darting between us. His hands move in a flurry of rapid signs I can't quite follow.

"No, not tobite," Thane clarifies quickly. I notice the slight strain in his voice, the way his pants seem tighter than they were a moment ago. "With your tongue. You would lick her pussy. To… make her feel good."

I glance at Thane’s bulge, and for the first time, I wonder if his tense behavior around Wraith since the cave incident isn’t because he didn’t like witnessing that, but because he liked it a little too much. He’s always uptight and finding ways to feelguilty about his alpha instincts, even though his are pretty damn benign. It adds up.

Understanding dawns in Wraith's eyes, and to my surprise, he doesn't seem as horrified by the concept as I expected. He turns to me, his hands moving in careful, deliberate motions.

Are you sure? Won't that scare you?

Even now, with the prospect of fucking laid out before us, his first thought is for my comfort. "I'm sure," I say, maybe a little too quickly. "And, yeah, it might be a little scary. But that's part of what makes it exciting."

Wraith stares at me for a long moment, clearly trying to process this information. I can almost see the gears turning in his head as he weighs the potential risks against my obvious desire. Finally, his massive shoulders rise and fall in a heavy sigh.

If you're sure,he signs.

I nod, suddenly feeling lightheaded as the reality of what we're about to do sinks in. Thane takes my hand, guiding me toward the cot that dominates the center of the room. The silk sheets are cool against my skin as I lie back, my heart pounding so hard I'm sure they can hear it.

Wraith hesitates at the foot of the cot, his massive frame tense with nervous energy. I hold out my hand to him, offering a smile.

"It's okay," I reassure him. "I trust you."

I watch as Wraith's massive shoulders relax slightly at my words. When he reaches up to unwrap his scarf, his movements are still hesitant, uncertain. He averts his gaze as the fabric falls away, clearly expecting me to change my mind about this when I see his scarred face and sharp teeth again.

But the sight of him takes my breath away in an entirely different way than he probably expects.

He's so fucking hot.

By any normal standard, his appearanceshouldbe terrifying. His massive stature, even for an alpha. The exposed muscle and bone of his jaws. The permanent grin of sharp teeth that could tear flesh from bone. The deep jagged furrows of scar tissue spiking up from where he must have had a normal mouth once.
