It’s true, my mouth won’t stop watering.
“I did this to you all,” Halley whispers in horror even as her scent thickens at Viper’s words.
I need to get her back inside the tent and calm her down. We can talk more after she recovers from the ordeal.
“Knox? Is he…?”
“Taking a long walk to cool off.”
She sighs, a frown pinching between her brows.
“Come on, baby girl. Back in the tent with you. Let me get you something to eat and then you’ll take a nap.” I’m surprised I can even speak at the moment because all of my blood is currently rushing to my dick.
This is my penance for my betrayal, it has to be.
“Halley, you need to go back to your nest now, okay, baby girl?”
“And you’ll come too?” Her eyes shine with excitement.
I hum and nod, hating that I’m lying to her but needing her to comply.
“I’ll be there soon. Go make the nest nice and pretty for me, okay?” I nudge her gently towards the tent.
When she disappears inside, I release a breath I didn’t know I’d been holding. I remember vividly exactly how the soft folds between her thighs taste. I’d love nothing more than to dive my face in between them again.
I shake my head, clearing my thoughts.
Fuck, it’s so easy to fall under her spell. The fog of arousal is enough to cloud my thinking. My blood is pumping, roaring inmy ears with the desire to be inside her. It shouldn’t be like this for me. I’m a Beta, but I’m reacting to her like an Alpha.
I adjust my stiff cock and set off to make some food for everyone.
Four sharp gunshots crack from further down the mountain.
My ears ring and I stare into the forest in shock.
The comms attached to my utility belt crackles to life with our Prime Alpha’s voice.
“Ten insurgents, north-east perimeter. Armed. Alphas.”
“Fuck.” I scramble to pick up the tablet, flicking through the surveillance feeds until I find what I’m looking for. “Confirmed, I have visual. Ten bogies converging on your position, Prime Alpha.”
A group of Alphas are stalking up the mountainside with dogged determination. They’re coming straight for our camp.
They must have caught the scent of Halley’s heat. An Omega in heat is like a siren call. I’m such an idiot for not considering that. Some genius I am. I’ve been too busy keeping things at camp under control, I didn’t consider outside threats.
Knox did, and that’s why he’s our leader.
“I need backup. Shade, send me Viper and Blaze. You stay with Halley. Keep her safe.”
I swallow and look at Blaze. A smirk of dark delight stretches over his sharp features, practically gleeful at the idea of killing the intruders after the day we’ve had.
I sigh and grimace. This is going to be a bloodbath.
“Roger, Prime Alpha. Letting the war-dogs off their chains.”
Time to let the beasts out of their cages.
