CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE

“Are you nervous,cucciolo?” I ask my beta with a raised brow as he practically vibrates on the seat next to me. I can feel his anticipation through our bond, and his normally calming sea breeze scent is slightly tinged with anxiety.

“No!” he says too quickly, his cheeks flushing an adorable shade of red as he shifts his hold on the bouquet of flowers in his lap. We’re finally driving home after a long day at the office, and are both eager to see our omega again. “I just…” he sighs, reaching across the center console to grab my hand. “You know how long I’ve wanted her. And now…it’s our date tonight, and it’sreal.” He swallows roughly and grips my hand tighter. “I also want you to know, I won’t be mad or jealous if you ever want time with her…alone.”

“I know, my love,” I tell him, bringing the back of his hand to my lips and kissing it gently. “Just as I will never fault you for wanting her to yourself sometimes.”

He lets out a sigh of relief. It really was good fortune that my Archie and Cady fell for each other before she met us. I’ve heard too many stories of betas getting jealous and leaving packs after an omega joins, or omegas not being okay with one of their alphas being bonded to a beta. If anything though, Cady enjoys at least the thought of her alpha and beta together, if the way her scent sweetens when I kiss him is any indication.

“Cady is the center of our pack,” I continue, looking ahead at the road as I drive us home. “The stronger our individual bonds are, the stronger our pack as a whole will be. It is good for us to spend time all together as well as separate.”

“Do you think she’ll want to bond?” he asks suddenly. “You know, during her heat? Or is it too soon?”

“I would bond her tonight if she asked me to,” I tell him truthfully, “as I’m sure Ollie, Titus, and Simon would. But it has to be her choice. She needs to be the one to bring it up.”

“Do you think…” he trails off, biting his lip. “Do you think she’d bond me? I know as a beta, I can’t bond anyone, but omegas can bond betas, right?”

“I think you are the first one she would bond,cucciolo.”

His cheeks flush again, and I decide then that my omega and I should play a game to see who can make him turn more red.

Just as we park in the driveway, Titus comes outside, drinking a beer.

Archie has the flowers, and I have a tray of her favorite iced coffee.

“How is she today, Titus?” I ask as we walk up the steps to the front porch.

“We have a bit of a situation with her work.”

Archie’s brows furrow. “What kind of situation?”

Titus tells us about the email that made its way to her inbox as well as his following conversation with Grady, her boss. The whole thing makes my blood boil. How dare someone speak totesoro miolike that?

“Is she okay now? Is she freaked out?” Archie is talking a mile a minute, panic clear in his face.

Titus only smirks. “Oh yeah, she’s fine now. Group effort.”

At that, Archie rushes into the house while I stay behind and raise a brow at Titus. “Group effort?”

He shrugs, taking a swig of his beer. “Angel had another heat spike and needed to be knotted. I was going to let Simon take care of it because she’s never been with a pack before. But then sheaskedspecifically to suck my dick while Simon was inside her. Nothing like a good orgasm to take your mind off things.”

Grinning, I nod and head inside and am smacked in the face with the scent of Cady’s perfume mixed with Simons arousal. Then I catch a magnificent view. Cady and Simon, still knotted on the couch, while Archie is on his knees in front of her, licking at her clit while she has a hand through his hair.

Her head is thrown back as Simon palms at her breasts, kissing her neck right where one of our marks will go. I have never asked Archie to refrain from any sexual contact with any of our pack members, but I know he is being careful to only eat his omega’s pussy, and not get any of Simon’s parts still locked inside of her. I can’t help but palm my hard cock

“Ah, fuck, Archie!” She cries out, her hand tightening in his hair as her toes curl, and then she’s limp. My beta kisses from her slick wet heat up her stomach and chest, and then finally lands on her lips.

“Hello, blossom.” He smiles as he kisses her. “Did you have a good day?”

“It just got even better,” she murmurs, her eyes closing. “You’re home early.”

I come up next to Archie and push a strand of hair out of Cady’s face before settling a blanket on Simon and our omega. “We’re going to cook for you tonight for dinner. Take a nap with your alpha before he leaves for work, and we’ll be here when you’re rested up.”

Simon gives me an appreciative smile and snuggles in closer to Cady, who gives a contented sigh.

“Okay, Mattie.” She smiles sleepily at me and my heart stutters. Like I told Archie, I would bond her right this minute if she asked. I am fully and completely in love with Cady Jackman.
