She stiffened under me, and I could taste her awareness in the way her aura shook around me.
I had never been particularly interested in other omegas. Even when my family pushed me towards Caspian’s sister, I had no intention of pursuing it. It was only that first meeting with Kai, where a single waft of his scent awoke a power inside me I hadn’t acknowledged. Kai smirked the second we matched, and, before I realised it, I’d pulled him into my office and bitten him.
And now here she was, our other omega. She was the perfect size for my arms, her lips quivering, her chest rising and falling against mine as she took a deep breath.
“Sin…” Her groan echoed around us. Her heat-filled eyes shot up to me, her lips parted, her panting breaths whispering across my neck. She curved her back, pressing herself closer.
It took one move, one moment to lean close to her. Only centimetres from my lips, she perfumed, and all my thoughts vanished. The only thing that remained was my desire to claim her.
“God, you smell so good,” she murmured against my chest.
“Do you want more?” I asked, caving instantly.
“Sin, I need…” She drew in another shaking breath. The line of her throat was completely exposed, and it would be nothing for me to push aside her hair and sink my teeth into her.
I could bond with her right here, and every second it grew harder to resist. And neither Kai nor Caspian could fight for so long. They would break eventually, it was simply a matter of waiting.
We watched each other, our breaths caught, our hold tight, my need to devour her pounding to the beat of my heart.
And then she whimpered.
And I couldn’t hold back, no matter who was watching.
I swept down to take her lips, pressing fully against her, savouring the moan that burst from her as my tongue brushed hers and she gave herself to me.
We moved together, meeting each other, falling into each other again and again. Our tastes blended, my vanilla softening her rich brandy, driving me insane with need. Her lips were soft with gloss, her mouth burning. Her hands fell from my chest so she could rub her breasts against me as she grabbed every piece of me I could give, as I did with her.
I wanted her to beg for me the way she had for my mates.
Melanie pulled back, gasping as my cock ground against her stomach. I was already hard. Simply seeing her again was enough to arouse me. But now, after tasting her, I needed to be inside her.
I wanted to rip my gloves off so I could feel the sparks of lightning dance between us again.
Her eyes glazed over, and I hoped she imagined everything I could do to her once I removed the dress my omega had created for her.
“Is this what you want?” I asked, pressing against her shoulders to keep her close, luxuriating in the stiff points of her nipples flattened against me.
Kai would wreak havoc on me for this, but the alpha in me needed to ensure she was mine.
Melanie clung to me, her eyes wide, a gentle whine of need falling from her lips.
I groaned as I bent back down, covering her lips with mine again. Each touch of our tongues was like magic, and I almost came as she nibbled my bottom lip, licking me before diving back in.
We were so lost in our need that it was only when a clink echoed from behind her that I was dragged out of the beautiful haze of desire.
My eyes shot open, suddenly remembering where we were and what we were here to do.
We both flinched back, still clutching each other, gazes filled with need.
The beta stylists attempted to busy themselves, but our moans were loud enough that it was obvious what we were doing. Melanie would need to redo her makeup, and the car to whisk us to Mansfield Hotel was waiting below.
It was not like the Spa where we could behave however we wished. We were about to enter our parents’ domain, and I couldn’t afford for either of us to be distracted.
Though it could be more beneficial for a hidden camera to show us absorbed with each other to prove my pack was serious about her—or I was, at least.
Neither of us said a word, tense expectation hanging like a veil over us. I had seen that look on Kai so many times that I knew if I took her hand, she would follow me anywhere I chose. If I guided her towards the small hallway where the scent of her heat emanated the strongest, it wouldn’t take long for her to fall into my arms.
And it was that thought that brought me to loop a stray curl of hair around my finger, tucking it behind her ear as I leaned down.
