Page 81 of Ruled By The Alpha

My pussy clenched, and an involuntary purr slipped out. I tried to clamp it down, but it was too late. Filled with stress and arousal, I tried to calm myself.

"Is she purring?" Aiden asked, coming to stand on Rowan's left.

"She is," Rowan confirmed, his grin smug as Cooper stood to his right.

I rarely purred, and I knew my alphas were as transfixed by it as Rowan was. Would they obey his order? One fight did not make for an agreement. Conflict between them was inevitable, perhaps despite or because of their former relationship. One did not simply mesh three alphas together and expect them to play nice, even if they had done so before.

My eyes lowered to the telling bulge in their pants.

"You're going to force her heat?" Cooper asked, rubbing restlessly at his jaw.

"I am," Rowan confirmed, never taking his eyes off mine. I tried to swallow down my damn purr, but I might as well convince myself not to breathe.

Aiden sucked in air through his teeth. "Fuck," he muttered gruffly. "My cock is hard enough to drive fucking nails. You'rea savage bastard for all you speak like a prissy duke, but she's needed this for a long time, to be claimed. I've fucking craved it. If her sweet little purr is any indication, she's all fucking in."

"I've heard you need to be extra rough with them," Cooper said, reaching for the buckle on his belt even as he kicked off his boots. He shoved his pants down over narrow hips and muscular thighs before ripping his t-shirt over his head and tossing it to the floor. His beautiful, ripped body became the object of my heated interest. "She’s tough and can take a lot, so you've got your work cut out."

"Reckon we'll need to tag-team her to the point of exhaustion before she's close to breaking," Aiden added, likewise reaching for his buckle as Cooper waded onto the mattress and sat down beside me. "Spends too much time in her head. We've done that a time or two when she was stressed enough to need a more extreme release."

"Take her close, but don't let her come," Rowan said, watching with a dark expression as Cooper fisted my hair and closed his mouth over one breast. I arched into Cooper's touch, never taking my eyes from Rowan, seeing his nostrils flare. "Fuck, I'd forgotten how much I liked watching."

"She likes to be watched, don't you baby," Aiden said, crawling over the bed and spreading my legs open wide before growling against my inner thigh.

Damn, I was close to coming already and my pussy wept in anticipation of Aiden's skilled tongue. I liked to get off and did so often and easily. I didn’t appreciate being made to wait.

A rough fucking taking me out of my head… I definitely needed that.

We all did.

"Fucking drenched, baby," Aiden growled before burying his head between my legs.

Cooper flicked my nipple with his tongue before sucking it sharply into his hot mouth.

My eyes wanted to close, but I fought to keep them open as Rowan stripped, peeling out of his clothes, revealing inch after inch of skin mottled by bruises he'd earned to fight for a place with me. Savage. Uncivilized in every sense, but it fitted perfectly in this broken world.

It fitted perfectly for me.

I feasted my eyes on his thick cock jutting from a nest of dark curls. Long, with a delicious-looking, plum-colored tip. I could already scent his pre-cum leaking, the heady aroma of his pheromones mixing with those of my alphas.

Then he fisted that girth and jacked slowly up and down.

"Don't let her fucking come," Rowan barked, just as my eyes rolled back and my chest heaved.

"No!" My wail accompanied Aiden and Cooper lifting their heads.

A heartbeat later, Rowan had closed his fingers around the back of Aiden's throat and jerked him off me. He nestled into the vacated space, lined up his cock, and locked his eyes with mine, then filled me to the root in a single, savage thrust.

We both groaned. I reveled in the glorious bite of pleasure-pain.

"Now," he said, big hands at my waist. "I'm going to fuck you."

Chapter 6

Imogen

Rowan fucked me like he was trying to imprint himself on me one thrust at a time.

"I'm going to fuck you and force your heat. And when I'm done, and you're good and claimed, I'm going to tattoo our mark on your temple. "
