“Turn me,” I hiss, not willing to be released from Kodiak’s arms. He is the birthday boy, after all. “You.” I point to the Alpha that ate me out on a hotel rooftop. The one that licked my thighs clean of all my slick… “Did you–”

“I haven’t fucked anyone in over seven months, and no one you have ever met, Little Omega.” I trust Declan implicitly. I’m not sure why, but I believe he’d never lie to me about this.

“You already know I want you to be my last, Starlight. I haven’t touched anyone since you,” Hayden says before I can question him.

My instincts mellow out in an instant, and I feel like someone just tossed a cold bucket of water on me.

My legs are wrapped around Kodi’s waist, and his hands are massaging my bare ass cheeks.

Fantastic.

I makefantasticlife choices…

“Well. This is awkward,” I murmur, patting Kodiak’s chest for him to let me down. My scent is saturating the air like a wet blanket. Once on my feet, I can feel a hint of slick wetting my thong. The realization makes me whine, setting off a chorus of growls from the Alpha’s around me.

“Why don’t you give Kodiak an early present? He’ll open his other gifts later, but I think he wants one from you right now, Little Omega.” Declan steps in front of me and spins me around until I’m facing his twin.

“A kiss?” I ask, dizzy as the room fills with their pheromones.

I press my hand to Kodiak’s cheek, caressing my thumb over the bottom of his scar. He shivers from the touch, as I stare into those pools of sapphire blue. Slowly, I lean forward, and kiss him. It’s like fireworks.

Heat rushes through my veins, and a rush similar to the one I had on the rooftop with Declan makes my toes curl in my heels.

Hands are on my body, on my skin. Touching, caressing… I arch into Declan, and Kodiak pushes his hands into my hair, tugging the strands sharply. I moan into his parted lips, and his tongue gently touches mine.

“You’re so fucking sexy, Tatum. Look at you, pressed between my brothers. Fuck, you’re so perfect.” Hayden’s voice is a low growl, but it snaps me back to reality, and I pull away from Kodiak, panting.

“Jesus,” I chuckle, wiping my wet bottom lip with my thumb, and then reaching up to do the same for Kodiak. He growls, taking my thumb between his teeth and nipping it. His tongue swipes away our combined taste off my skin, and I can’t help but imagine what that would feel like in other places.

“We should get back to the party, I’m sure by now everyone has noticed the four of us are missing,” Declan tells us, as Kodiak releases my thumb, and I shakily nod, turning away from the irresistible Alpha. Right into two other irresistible Alphas.

The sight of Hayden sobers me up, and I wince. What was I thinking? I’m being a messy wreck.

I need to get a hold of myself. Control my hormones and instincts.

“Can I buy more suppressants?” I blurt out, and every scent in the room shifts. Bad timing?

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Tatum

The party goes on, and I meet a few of their friends, eventually we make our way out to the backyard. Which is, of course, massive and stunning. There’s a pool, a pool house, a covered outdoor kitchen with a TV and grill. A million different chairs, and a couple tables, as well as a bench swing. The fairy lights wrapped around the entire area add a magical quality that reminds me of just a few nights ago…

“I know how much you liked them, so I had them installed yesterday,” Declan murmurs, as he hands me another beer.

After I blurted out that I wanted more meds, he sort of froze. Hayden escorted me back to the kitchen, and when Declan finally joined us, he’d handed me a small silver pack. More suppressants.

They’re now shoved into my purse.

“Really?” I’m so emotional, and incredibly touched by the small gesture. “That’s sweet. It looks beautiful out here.”

“I’m glad you think so.” Dec kisses my cheek, before walking over to a group of Alphas, and patting one on the back. Whenwe returned to the party earlier, the unmated Omega was gone. I feel a little guilty about that, but…well, I’m glad she left.

A little later I get caught up in a conversation with a mated Omega, Silver, who’s here with her three Alpha mates. They’ve known Kodiak and Declan since high school, and I get the vibe that her men work for the guys, but she keeps that vague. They never had kids, which is unusual for a mated Omega, but not unheard of.

I’m in the middle of cheering on an intense match of beer pong by the pool, when Hayden tenses up. He’s staring behind me, and I look over my shoulder to see the woman that raised him. Melany is a petite Omega, who’s been single as long as I’ve known her.

I know a lot about Hayden and his parents, but there are still some dark spots that I don't have the full details on.
