She huffed softly, looking up at me. “Omegas who are pregnant need physical touch—cuddles with alphas. It helps reduce how sick they are. It has something to do with evolution, and it sucks.”
Did that mean she neededmytouch?
A smile graced my face as I lay back in her nest, pulling her into my arms so she was half resting on my chest. “I’m happy to provide cuddles whenever you need them. I’m pretty sure the others will as well.”
As I spoke, she melted into my embrace.
Her nest and the omega herself made for a very comfortable environment. Within a few minutes, she was snoring lightly, and I could feel my eyelids getting heavy.
With one hand wrapped around her, resting on her little bump, I grabbed my phone with the other and snapped a quick photo of her snoozing on my chest.

I brought Mable some candy she was craving, and she mentioned that omegas need snuggles while pregnant because of their hormones. So guess which lucky idiot is getting omega cuddles?
Jasper
No fair!
Saint
Lucky shit.
Devin
A quick look on the Internet, and it seems that being deprived of alpha presence during pregnancy is actually quite bad for pregnant omegas. We need to make sure she’s in physical contact with us regularly.
Jasper
I can make a snuggle schedule. That way, one of us is always around for her cuddling needs!
Saint
No way. You’ll give yourself all the time slots and leave no cuddles for the rest of us.
Jasper
I’m just so much more snuggly than you guys…
Devin
Should I let the security team know that you’re probably not going to be back tonight?
Percy
I think that’s for the best.
Silencing my phone one-handed, I threw it across the nest and returned to focusing on the sweet woman curled up in my arms.

Mable
Ihad an alpha in my nest.
And I was wrapped around him like a stage-five clinger.
The moment I woke up, the first thing that hit me was his scent—sweet, dark, rich coffee. Masculine, delicious, and utterly perfect.
