Jasper lifts his head. “Which is it, baby? Do you want Talia's mouth or not?”
 
 “Oh my god.” Nathan takes a breath and nods. “Yes, I want it. Please.”
 
 “Such good manners for an alpha, don't you think so?” I hum at Jasper and give Nathan a long lick.
 
 “He's the sweetest one of all of them,” Jasper kisses the inside of Nathan's thigh, then lowers his head back down.
 
 Nathan groans, and I ask him again if he can describe what Jasper's doing to him.
 
 “I'll try,” he breathes out. Then his hips buck a little and he lets his head drop back. “He licked between my balls and my asshole.”
 
 “Did it feel good?” I ask, and give him another swirling lick.
 
 “God, yes.” Then he's groaning again. “He licked it, my asshole. Why does it feel so good? Fuck.” Jasper's rough laugh spreads just as much heat through me as Nathan's desperate noises.
 
 Then I suck all the way down Nathan's shaft and bob my head a few times. He grunts and lifts his hips off the mattress as he sinks his fingers into my hair.
 
 Jasper does something that has Nathan making the gasping, groaning, huffing sound again, and his fist tightens. “I can't describe it. I don't know what he's doing. It feels so fucking good.”
 
 I pull back so that I'm sucking and licking around the head and stroking up and down. I can see Jasper's head moving and I try to keep up with the pace he's setting.
 
 “Fuck. I want to pull his hair. I need my other hand. Please don't stop. Oh god.” Whatever Jasper does next has Nathan nearly jackknifing up off the mattress. “Gonna cum, gonna cum, gonna cum,” he says over and over again until he does it, giving me his release and practically screaming when I give his knot quick, little strokes. Then Nathan goes limp. We've transformed him into a twitchy, gasping, puddle.
 
 “How's your shoulder?” I ask. I hope arching up like that won't hurt him too much now that he's not in the throes of his pleasure.
 
 “What?” he mumbles, not bothering to open his eyes.
 
 “Your shoulder, Nathan. Does it hurt?”
 
 “Nothing hurts right now. I'm spent, though; I'm sorry. I don't think I can even open my eyes. You'll have to fuck each other or call one of the others in.”
 
 Jasper rolls off the bed and stands up with his erection straining against his sweats, complete with a wet spot over the very clearly pronounced head. “We'll be alright. Stay here. I'll bring up dinner.”
 
 “How is your shoulder, Nathan? Tell me,” I press. I know he wants to bask in the afterglow of that intense orgasm, but he was shot just this morning and we made him cum pretty hard.
 
 A purr rumbles from Nathan with his answer. “It was just a little shot, barely a graze. I'll be good as new in a couple days. Do you really do that to Jasper?”
 
 Graze my ass. The bullet went straight through, just under the ball joint. But he's right, he really should be alright in a couple days. “I do. He makes the best sounds for me.”
 
 “It feels fucking amazing. I'm going to do that to him during his next heat.”
 
 “Good luck,” I say. “I don't think I could stand it during my heat.”
 
 Nathan laughs. “No, you definitely couldn't. You'd rip my head off and then demand to be fucked. You and him are so different when you're in heat.”
 
 I pull a few strands of his hair. “I'm not that bad.”
 
 He snorts. “Yeah, you are. I love it, though.” He's quiet for a minute, then he whispers, “I was so scared this morning. I was so afraid we wouldn't be enough. And you were stuck in my room watching monitors. I know that killed you. Are you alright?”
 
 “No.” That's the blunt truth. “I'm not. But I will be. I was so afraid. I thought Kaleb was dying. He told me not to look and I kind of lost my mind for a minute. If Jasper hadn't come in and made that sound to pull me back together I don't know what I would have done.”
 
 “That sound makes my skin crawl. He's never made that sound before you became pregnant. I don't want to say it's the cause, but it's definitely correlated. What does it feel like? Is it like an alpha command?”
 
 “The sound he was making at the table made him feel big, like he filled the room. I wanted to submit to him and it was a little unnerving. He never made that sound before you became pregnant. I don’t want to say it’s the cause, but it’s definitely correlated. What does it feel like? Is it like an alpha command?”
 
 The only alpha command that has really, truly had any genuine affect on me is when Alex told me to sit when we were testing out those ear pieces, but that was enough to let me know that I hate that shit and I don't ever want that to happen to me again. The sound that Jasper was making at the table had a similar effect, only worse. “The sound Jasper made is a lot more intense than an alpha command. I can still think and know what's happening around me with an alpha command. The sound Jasper made at the table caused me to completely lose myself. The tone he used when I thought Kaleb was dying wasn't exactly like that, but it stopped my panic. Could you guys hear it over the headset?”
 
 He shakes his head. “No. We just heard him talking to you. Are you upset about Pratchett?”
