He lifts his weight off my body, his hands on either side of my head, as he leans in to kiss me. At least, I think that's what he’s about to do.

He holds my gaze as he slowly lowers himself, the lightest brush of his lips against mine makes my body shake. I’m wrapping my trembling legs around his waist, needing to feel more of him against me. Needing the pressure of his weight over me.

I can’t take the torture of the slow pace he’s setting, so I pull his head down, melding our lips together. His response is everything, as he moans against me, the feeling of his hard length against my center reassuring me he feels the way I do.

“Fuck me, Easton.” I moan when the kiss breaks, so he can kiss a trail down my neck. He freezes when he hears my words.

I can feel the thunderous pounding of his heart against my chest as I hold him against me.

“I want to, sweet Sparrow. But…too soon?” His rejection is a shard of ice through my heart, clearing some of the lust filled fog from my mind. “This feels good,” he adds, distracting me. “I’m not experienced.” These words are a very low whisper, and I pull his head back with a grip in his hair.

The vulnerable way he’s looking at me is more than I can take. He…he said he liked fucking though…

“I lied,” he says with a wince, as if he read my mind. “I’ve never touched anyone before.” He’s blushing, his pale cheeksturning pink, as my slick betrays how the confession makes me feel. His mouth parts in shock as he studies my face.

I nibble my lip, my entire body trembling with a soul deep need. “I haven’t done much. I mean, I have. My first heat was with an Alpha, but that was three years ago…but then…” I trail off, embarrassed. “I was with Alphas, I mean, they…we didn’t have sex, they just…touched me.” I’m rambling, but when I try to hide my face, Easton doesn’t let me.

“Tell me what happened. Did they hurt you?” I can’t help the tears, but I shake my head at his question.

“No. I h-hurt them.”

Easton

She hurt them? How the fuck…

One second I’m considering how easily I might use her to lure them to their deaths tonight, consequences be damned, and the next, I’m simply confused.

“Who did you hurt, sweet Sparrow?” I ask, when I remember I’m not supposed to know who she’s talking about. There’s a flash of panic in her eyes, and I can’t tell why. Is she worried it’ll bother me that she cared for someone else? Or does she think I’m possessive of her body?

I wasn’t. I am now, of course. I meant it when I said I wasn’t going back. She just doesn’t know what that means yet. I’m not sure if I do, either.

“Hayden was my best friend when I was younger. Things between us fell apart a few years ago. Kodiak and Declan are my bosses. Were my bosses. They’re a pack.” She sniffs, still clinging to me, I’ve stopped grinding against her though. Thought thatmight be inconsiderate given the conversation. “It’s all kind of a long story, but I got close to all three of them when I shouldn’t have. We fooled around a little, and when things got too serious, I ran away.”

“You care for them?” I ask with a frown, but try to hide it, not wanting her to mistake my reaction as anger with her. I knew she was closer to them than their average employee. And knew Hayden stalked her. Noticed they all seemed to be infatuated with her. But… Well, I thought their interests were more nefarious. She’s an unmated Omega. If my uncle Keslor got his hands on her, I know what he would do. What any Alpha would do.

Right?

“I-I do. It doesn’t matter, though, because I can’t be with them. That’s why I had to leave. I have to think of my mom, she needs me to care for her. I don’t have time to fall to pieces over Alphas.” She sniffs again, and I nod my understanding.

Alphas are dangerous.

The Hayes brothers are no exception. They are the example.

So how did they convince an Omega like Tatum to care for them?

Tatum

“It’s okay,” his lips brush against my forehead, and I sigh. I hadn’t brought it up so I could unload all that on him, but now that I have, I feel less pressure on my chest. “I’m a virgin.” He presses a kiss to my neck, now, and I shiver.

“I g-guessed as much,” I mumble, making him chuckle. His breath whispers against my skin, and I know he can scent myslick as it once again wets my inner thighs. “I want you,” pulling him in for a kiss, my eyes fall shut as I sink into the feeling of his body against mine.

The scent of his slick is dizzying, making me needy. A whine slips free from my chest as I roll my hips up into him, and he lets out a soft whimper. I break the kiss, and push him back just enough so I can pull my pajamas off, and when I’m naked under him, I feel vulnerable but safe.

“You’re…so beautiful, Tatum.”

Then I’m the one watching as he kneels between my spread legs and removes his briefs. I don’t wait, I just reach for him, both hands on his shoulders as I pull him back down over me.

He lets me direct him until his hard cock is slipping against my slick.
