Claiming me. Filling me. Making my soul complete.
“That was perfect,” he murmured, nibbling my neck, kissing and licking me in a way that sent little sparks of delight through me. “You were perfect. Are you okay?”
I looked into his eyes, falling into them. “That was incredible.” Tears pricked my eyes, and I buried my head in the crook of his neck, inhaling his scent. “I missed you so much.”
“I missed you, too,” he breathed, wrapping his arms around me and shifting our locked bodies into a more comfortable cuddling position. “I’m here. I’m here and I’ve got you.”
He started to purr for me, wrapping my body in warmth.
“I know.” For the first time in a long time, I felt happy. Truly soul-busting, joyously happy. Like a puzzle I didn’t know I’d had was finally finished.
I was treasured. I was loved.
I was complete.
Chapter Twenty-Three
Wes
My face buried in her hair as I held her close. The scent of our lovemaking clung to her, to me, as she dozed in my arms.
Grace. I had my Grace back. I didn’t want to give her up. Whatever she had in that other world, it would be better here. Not just because I was here. We’d love and appreciate her far more than her world ever did.
A soft rap on the door broke through my musings. “Wes?”
“Evan, why are you knocking? Get in here,” I called.
The door cracked open, and his face appeared. “I wanted to give you privacy.”
“You don’t need to knock. Seriously. If Grace has a problem with it, we’ll tickle her until she relents.” I nuzzled her with my nose.
“Gimme.” Eyes still closed, she reached out for Evan.
Evan slipped in and closed the door. His eyes brushed over our naked bodies. We were no longer joined, just cuddling, as I contemplated another round.
I grabbed his hand and squeezed it, sending all my love through the bond.You okay?I mouthed.
He nodded. Then he gave me a saucy wink.Felt that,he mouthed back.
“We’ll make it up to you.” Her voice went soft. “I…”
“Oh, Peaches.” Evan dive-bombed the bed, wiggling in between us. “It’s okay to need some alone time. Was it magic?”
“It was.” She snuggled into him, making satisfied little noises that made me want to fuck her again. Fuck both of them.
He pressed his lips to her forehead, then leaned in for a kiss from me.
I captured his lips and kissed him like I’d missed him, my hands traveling over his clothed body. “You’re leaving for the movies?”
“Turns out, we’re all going to the movies.” He leaned into me.
“Gracejustgot out of the hospital.” While the movies weren’t strenuous, with Riley there, I couldn’t exactly make out with him. With them. Cover them with a blanket and tease them, playingdon’t make a noiseas I made them come over and over in the darkness, hoping the air filters in the theater were good enough that we didn’t get kicked out.
“I know, but it’s a movie, not a hike. Katie’s action items.” Evan’s eyes rolled.
Grace frowned. “Are omegas not allowed out without alphas? Because that’s bullshit.”
“No. It’s more of a social construct,” Evan explained. “We’re a pack. A family. Whywouldn’twe do things together? Omegas tend towantto stay close to their alphas; it makes them feel safe and happy. I drive myself to work a lot. I do things with just me and Riley. It’s more like my being overly independent looks weird. While it works for us, Katie thinks they need to be extra doting right now.”
