There was hope after all.
I unwrap my arms from where they were wrapped around Ledger's body and instead snaking them up his body until my hands are on either side of his face. “Of course I mean it. You are my Alpha. I want you.”
His entire body shivers against mine.
“God, you are perfect.”
He leans down and captures my lips in his. The touch is soft to start off with. His lips gently move against mine in a rhythm that sends arousal shooting down to my core. He pulls away from me before we can get too carried away. I go to follow after him but he just chuckles at me.
“As much as it pains me to pull away from you, we will be resuming this later.” I nod quickly, unable to not show just how eager I am.
Ledger flips us over and rearranges us so I am half lying on his chest. I feel a body scooch up beside me. Turning my head, I find Theo smiling down on me as he moves back into position. He curls his body around mine, his form moulding to mine like we were made for each other. I mean, we kind of are, I guess.
The couch dips on the other side of us. Just like Theo, Jax curls up to Ledger so he can have his hands on both of us.
The moment his skin touches mine, it feels as though all of my worries instantly melt away. It's almost as though the past few hours never happened.
I feel my soul settle for the first time in my life. Each of my Alpha’s bodies relax just like mine and I know their souls have quieted as well.
We spend the rest of the day watching movies and stuffing our faces with candy. It’s been years since I have tasted the sweetness of chocolate. My father refused to let me have any. His diet for me was strict. The moan I let out in response to my first bite was euphoric.
My groan set off my Alphas who were unable to hold their own back. The tension definitely escalated in the room at that point but we all brushed it aside as best as we could. We all seemed to know that this moment wasn’t about the touch our bodies crave, as much as each of us screamed for the touch.
We all collectively just wanted to spend time together as a new pack. Getting to learn about one another all together without the pressure of sex.
Even though today didn’t start off the best, it certainly ended better.
Theo got up and made dinner for us. I don’t think I have ever had a better spaghetti bolognese. Even though it was a simple meal, it was delicious. Yet again, I was unable to hold my groan in as I took my first bite.
It was surprising though to see the blush on Theo’s face as I praised him after going for seconds.
After dinner we went back into the movie room to watch another movie. I sat there for as long as I could snuggled up into Theo’s chest. It shouldn’t have surprised me that it wasn’t long before sleep eventually pulled me under.
Jostling of my body slowly begins to pull me out of sleep. I mumble something unintelligible both to whoever is moving me and myself.
“Shh, go back to sleep, my love,” the familiar voice whispers in my ear. “Alpha,” I mumble against the hard chest my face is now pressedup against. The chest underneath me vibrates as they begin to purr, a sound that lulls me back to sleep.
The next time I become aware of my surroundings, I feel the cool touch of bed sheets as they are pulled up my body and the noticeable absence of the warm body that had carried me in here.
I reach a hand out, grabbing onto the arm of whoever put me in here.
“Stay, please. I want you all to stay,” I murmur through the sleep that threatens to consume me again.
“A..are you sure, Omega?” A familiar voice says, this one sounding just a little bit further away.
“Yes. Don’t leave me.”
The body of the Alpha I am holding moves towards me, allowing me to drop my hand away from them. They move in behind me, pulling me into their body. I feel the bed dip beside me as the rest of my Alpha’s move in next to me.
“Never, Angel. I will never leave you. You are stuck with us for life.”
I settle into the hard chest in front of me, feeling whole again and allow myself to drift back to sleep.
An immeasurable amount of heat is the first thing that greets me as reality starts to filter in after one of the best sleeps of my life. Which isn’t really saying much considering for a good portion of my life I only had a lumpy twin mattress that was really no better than a cotI ended up with. It’s near impossible to get a good sleep especially when your sheets are threadbare and you are shivering all night due to the lack of heating in your room. I don’t even want to think about how uncomfortable the nights were during summer with not even a window to crack open.
It was just another way that my father was able to ensure my discomfort. It was subtle but an effective method of torture. You don’t realize just how precious sleep is until it is denied.
I go to rub the sleep from my eyes but pause as my hand trails over a hard, naked chest. I hesitate, opening my eyes only to be greeted with a sleeping Theo. My head rests back comfortably on his chest as I watch it rise and fall of his breathing. He looks completely and utterly blissed as he snores quietly.
