Alexei sniffs more of my scent. “They will like that you like watch.”

I bat his hand away. “Go away, Alexei. You’re supposed to be working.”

“Yes. Yes.” He tilts my head to the side and kisses me, causing my head to spin, before he abruptly pulls back. “Be good girl.”

Then he’s gone, leaving me to clench my thighs together as desire rushes through me.

Fuck.

They’re going to be the death of me.

On Friday night, Sasha and Ian find me and Camden sitting beside the pool.

“Hello, omegas.” Sasha grins as he sits on the lounge chair on one side of us, Ian sitting on the other side. “We were worried.”

“Worried?” I ask, lifting my head from Camden’s chest to look at him. “Why?”

Ian sighs. “No one knew where either of you were.”

I frown. “Did we not tell Wilder where we were going?”

Sasha shakes his head. “No. We thought you were still in Rancho Mirage. Bree called Lucas when he also was not there. That is only reason we knew you were at compound.”

“Well, fuck. We didn’t mean to worry any of you.” I try to sit up, but Camden just pulls me closer to him.

“Stop moving. They know where we are now.”

Ian laughs. “I’m pretty sure that Nikolai and Wilder are going to turn your asses pink when they find you. I thought they were going to tear apart the city looking for you.”

Groans fill the air as I perfume at the same time as Camden.

“I do not believe this will be punishment,” Sasha says with a chuckle. “I will let others know we found them.”

Ian stands with him. “We should probably both go. I have no intention of being here when they find you.”

“Gee, thanks.” I shake my head, grinning when Ian leans down to kiss me and then Camden.

I wait for them to leave before lifting my head to meet Camden’s eyes. “When did that happen?”

He flushes. “Around the same time everything with Nikolai happened. The three of us have been working together a lot this week.”

“Hmmm… Good for you. We should probably talk about that.”

“Oh, fuck. You’re mad, aren’t you?”

I jerk my head back. “Uh, no. I was wondering when you’d start looking at the suitors as potential mates for yourself as well. I just want to make sure we’re on the same page, is all.”

Camden never gets a chance to respond because a bellowed, “Omegas!!!” sounds out, and we sit up. There’s no mistaking Nikolai’s voice.

“Uh oh. I think we’re in trouble,” I say with a giggle.

“I think so too.” He grins. “So do we want to take our punishment like good omegas or do we want them to have to work for it?”

I bite my lip, thinking it over before jumping to my feet. “Let’s make them work for it.”

The sliding door flies open then, revealing Nikolai and Wilder. Camden and I squeal, holding hands as we head for the hedges. I just have to find the opening, then I can lead us to the rest of the compound.

“If you run, omegas, you will regret.” Nikolai’s voice is vibrating, but we ignore him as we keep going.
