“That’s no way to greet your beta, Firecracker,” he teases, hazel eyes darkening as he runs his eyes over me. I see the moment my scent hits him, too, and I really wish I hadn’t, because I’ll be fucked six ways to Sunday if it doesn’t have a crazy effect on my newly awakened sexual appetite. Hell, if my body wasn’t feeling so sluggish despite the awareness rolling through me, I’m sure I’d be climbing the beast of a man before me like a tree.

Another cramp steals my breath, and I’m gasping as I drop my bags and keel over slightly, clutching my stomach while I fight the urge to strip my clothes right here and now and point my ass in the sky for the man still eyeing me like I’m a dessert served up for his consuming. Goddamn, do I wish he’d fucking consume me right now.

I have no idea how long I stand there, fighting my way through the effects of another heat spike, but it can’t have been thatlong. All I know is that my bags are missing, and Geo is back with a look of pure determination that causes a shiver to wrack my body.

I’m hauled into strong, beautifully muscular arms and carried into the house before I even know it, my legs finding purchase around Geo’s waist like they were always meant to be there. My fingers are linked behind his head, the short strands of his hair brushing along my sensitive skin, the dark hair only long enough to fall into his eyes before he shakes it away.

“You’re burning up real fast, Firecracker,” he informs, a slight rasp to his words that reveal he’s just as affected by my heat spike as Lowie and Leylan had been. “Leylan told me what you need. It’s up to you, though. I can give you what you need, gladly, willingly, and fucking enthusiastically, or I can run an ice bath that would put the Antarctic to shame. I’ll even sit in there with you, so long as you warm me up after.”

A shocked laugh escapes me, and my thighs tighten around his waist. I’d rather take a spiked dildo to the ass than suffer an ice bath right now, especially with the way Geo is looking at me. Moreso with the way his hands rub against my back before cupping my ass gently, those hazel eyes watching my every reaction.

“No ice baths,” I pant, moaning when Geo’s hands clench in reaction.

“You want me to take care of you, sweet girl?” he questions, voice notably hungrier.

I’m nodding before he even finishes his question, and a wanton little whine slips free of my lips when Geo groans deep in his throat.

“Then let’s get you upstairs and comfortable,” he answers, flashing a broad grin that drives me absolutely wild. “I’m not planning on leaving you alone for one second tonight, Firecracker. By the time you fall asleep, it’ll be from pure exhaustion from feeling every ounce of pleasure I’m going to wring out of you.”

“Promises, promises,” I rasp through a pitiful moan as I cling to him like I need him to breathe. At this rate, I might. My body warmsimpossibly while the ache intensifies to an almost painful degree. My perfume is thick around us, a clear indication that I’m already wet, ready, and willing, and all I can think of is Geo.

I don’t even realize I’ve started mindlessly grinding against the man until he curses, cupping the back of my neck and dragging me into an earth-shattering kiss that only fuels the flames of my arousal.

It’s over much too soon, Geo’s gaze ablaze with need, and he rasps, “I need you naked and underneath me right now.”

“I really need that, too,” I agree, whining once more when a thick, hardened part of Geo’s body finds the apex of my thighs. “Right now, Geo. Really badly. Fuck, I need you.”

“Shit, Firecracker,” he grunts, right before he’s tucking my face into the crook of his neck before suddenly rushing up the stairs and along the hallway I only peeped the last time I was here. All the while, I help myself to the bare skin beneath my nose and mouth. I’m inhaling his beach-like scent, all fresh air and sea salt, like a drug addict snorting coke, my lips brushing along his smooth skin before I start trailing kisses all over whatever flesh I can reach. Those kisses quickly turn into needy little nips while Geo stumbles along the hallway before reaching a closed door tucked away near the back of the house, bordered by two other doors I can’t see past.

When my nips and scrapes of my teeth turn into sucks and licks, tasting his salty skin, Geo groans deliciously before he grits, “You’re gonna have to stop doing that or else this will be over a lot sooner than I plan, Juno.”

I answer with a hard suck of his skin between his neck and shoulder, knowing damned well it’s going to leave a mark, but finding the inability to give a shit. Instead, an intense thrum of satisfaction burns through me, knowing that I’ve marked him. That he’ll have a mouth-shaped hickey that screams to all who look at him that he’s mine, and only mine.

“Fuck, Firecracker. That feels good,” Geo grunts, his hold tightening impossibly as he opens that door and kicks it shut the moment we’re inside.

I have no idea where my things are, nor do I much care to know, because as soon as the door shuts, Geo and I are shrouded in darkness, and I’m suddenly cocooned by so many mouthwatering scents that I cry out as desire floods my system so fast that I feel dizzy. A combination of each of the guys’ scents surround me, ginger and spice, oak and hazelnut, sandalwood and cedarwood with trickles of coconut. And then there’s the subtle scent of the beach that underlines it all. It’s maddening, my breaths coming faster while I grind faster against Geo’s hard body.

“I need you out of these clothes, Firecracker,” Geo demands, voice dark with arousal. It’s addictive, and I whine before delving back to his neck, sucking harder than before. Geo stumbles over his own feet, jostling me in his hold, but not enough to dislodge me from sucking more marks into his skin. “Juniper, shit.”

Releasing him with a pop of my mouth, I scrape my teeth over the newest mark, unable to see it clearly through the darkness. In fact, I can only just about see Geo’s outline when I pull back from him, and my heartbeat picks up its rapid pace until it feels like it’s mere seconds away from bursting straight out of my chest.

Before I can utter a word, sure they’d end up leaving my mouth as a string of gibberish anyway, Geo is lowering me to the softest surface I’ve ever had the pleasure of sinking into. My favorite scents surround me more thoroughly as soon as my back touches the cloud of cushioning, and the mindless desire that barrels through every inch of my body sends me into a gasping state of need beneath Geo’s unyielding body.

“Geo, please,” I beg, the desperation for something,anything, slackening my mouth enough to leave my dignity behind. The fever is still riding me hard enough that sweat drips down my temple and slickens my back as I sink deeper into the clouds beneath me, and I’m damn near delirious with want for the man above me.

Sure enough, in my delirium, I’ve already taken it upon myself to start shoving Geo’s shorts down, the offending material obstructing the part of his body that needs to be inside me stat. Thankfully, my beta seems to be in just as much of a hurry, suddenly gripping whatever clothes his hands latch on and tearing them away from my body like they’ve personally insulted him. My jacket and shirt are gone in a blink, my jeans thrown someplace behind Geo, while my shoes and socks are flung in whatever direction they find themselves soaring. It’s only until I’m in nothing but a tiny scrap for panties and a lace bra that leaves very little to the imagination that he pauses.

“Goddamn, but you’re beautiful, Juniper. You’ve always been beautiful, but now?” Geo blows out a harsh breath, trembling hands reaching for the exposed skin he’s revealed. Once more, my scars are on display, the pads of his fingers brushing across the raised flesh despite the darkness. I’m glad it’s so dark, so that he doesn’t see them, not that I need to worry. Geo simply mutters two words that set me at ease, my skin prickling with goosebumps and trembling with want for him. “Absolutely stunning.”

Just as I open my mouth, likely to beg for more, Geo leans in and crushes his mouth to mine in a sweltering kiss I feel down to the very marrow of my bones. That kiss alone sends me spiraling pussy first into the heat spike and, while I grip Geo’s head and kiss him back with frantic movements with mewls and moans trapped between our mouths, I decide to lose myself to the need that’s boiling me alive from the inside out.

Chapter 19

Geo

I feel the change in her instantly, gone from ravenous to frantically desperate to touch every inch her dainty hands can reach. I’m still trying to wrap my head around the simple fact that I have Juniper lying beneath me, writhing and needy and heated, and knowing it’s all for me. That she wants me as desperately as I want her. I mean, sure, the heat spike is escalating how I’d like to have moved things, getting Juno comfortable with all of us again, but there won’t be a single complaint that leaves my mouth about this turn of events. Especially not when my sexy little omega practically tears my shirt over my head and instantly paws at the bare skin she exposes.

“Fuck, Gee,” she moans, a long-forgotten nickname on her tongue, as she greedily trails her hands all over my shoulders, chest, and stomach. It damn near makes me breathless, my mind spinning in exhilaration and desire knowing those hands are attached to the woman I’ve already built a life with in my head. I’m obsessed with her, obsessed with the way she can’t help but touch me, the little mewls of pleasure she releases just by feeling me against her. I only grow more obsessed when she breathes, “You’ve always been gorgeous, GeeGee. But fucking hell, it’s like you bet puberty wouldn’t take it up a notch or ten and lost.”
