“You need us,” the Alpha repeated. “Open your eyes and see.”

I opened my eyes and saw the beast lift his head from between my legs, those red eyes glowing brighter than ever before. He sniffed my arm, nudging it and drawing my focus to the mark that was deep and blue, the skull even clearer than it had been before.

The beast lifted his head, the mark on his own chest bolder and more distinct, throbbing almost. My mind swam, my senses left me as though this was a dream, almost. None of this was real. Not the sickness or me collapsing at work, or the towering, savage midnight beasts who stood before me now.

“It’s not real.” I lifted my head. Those red eyes blazed as the Alpha sniffed my breast and his pink tongue flicked out to lap my nipple. “It’s not real at all.”

Hunger consumed me with every lick of his tongue, every blast of his breath. With every tug on my clothes, I drew further and further into that emptiness.

“Let us take care of you.” The Alpha nudged my leg, pushing it to the side. “In your need.”

My need…

I was so hot, so unbelievably hot. A different, delicious warmth brewed under the fever, stoking between my thighs, lingering in the wake of his tongue. I could give myself over to this desire, give my…

Thud…

Thud…

Thud.

My heart.

My…heart.

Belongs to me.The whisper bloomed in my mind. The voice was familiar and strange, like the echo of a forgotten memory. A memory I wanted. No, a memoryI craved.

“Let us take care of you,” the Alpha growled again, stepping closer, his sheer size causing me to scramble backwards. Those red eyes burned in my mind and my whole body trembled. I was helpless under the spell, my will barely a thought under this hunger.

The others crowded around me. “You need us.” One lowered his head, growling softly in my ear. “Your body needs us.”

“We'll help with the transition.” Another licked my breast, sliding his big, warm tongue across my nipple before he lowered his head and gently nipped the soft flesh at my side. He licked the tiny flare of pain away as he moved lower.

“The fever…is almost at the end.” The Alpha bent low and opened his jaws.

Snap.

The button of my jeans flew through the air and clattered to the floor.

"Time to evolve…or die.”

That desire thrummed inside me. I struggled to think, arching my back as he pushed apart my zipper. The beast at my side nuzzled my neck, and I had the overwhelming urge to tilt my head and expose my neck.

“Ours.” The Alpha gripped one side of my jeans as another of his pack snagged the other in his jaws.

Cool air licked my thighs as they peeled my jeans down.

“Give in to me,” the beast urged in my ear.

I forced my head to the side, giving him what he wanted. The Wolf’s low growl vibrated along my neck, triggering the panicked rush of my pulse. I couldn’t fight them…even if I wanted to.

And I didn’t want to.

Not anymore.

I wanted to give in to this delicious agony. I wanted to part my thighs and let those big, thick tongues go where they wanted…

“That’s it,” the Alpha urged. “He’s almost ready for you.”
