Why we’d all denied our pack this feeling for so long weighed heavily on me, but maybe there was a reason.
Her.
CHAPTERTWENTY-ONE
Kayla
It felt like I was floating on a cloud, my mind not completely awake yet, but my body sensing the warmth and comfort around me.
I still wasn’t completely sure I wasn’t just hallucinating. The pain had been so bad for so long I wouldn’t have been surprised if I’d forgotten to turn the cold water off and been swept away into hypothermia land.
I hated how fragile heats made me feel. With this one being full-blown and then some, I’d never felt weaker, curled up in the bathtub, waiting for my pack to come.
I was angrier at myself more than anything; I’d sent them away when, in the back of my mind, I knew something wasn’t right.
The smell of something delicious broke through Rio’s scent, and I lifted my head from his warm chest to sniff the air like a dog. Rio was awake, his dark brown eyes watching me as he pushed a clump of hair out of my face.
I didn’t need to touch my hair to know it was a tangled mess. It had been in a sloppy bun, but with the rolling around in pain and writhing on the bathtub floor, it felt tangled as fuck.
“How are you feeling?” A line formed between Rio’s eyes, and I reached up to smooth it with my thumb.
“Horny and hungry.” I wiggled on top of him, seeking the friction of his cock against my clit. At some point, he must have slid out of me after his knot went down.
He groaned and rolled me over so I was under him. “Kayla, I can’t begin to tell you-”
I silenced him with a kiss, not needing any more apologies. They would probably spend the rest of their lives making up for the fact that they weren’t there when my heat hit.
Our tongues tangled together and the ache between my legs and in my lower belly quickly became painful. I needed another knot and I needed it now.
I heard the door open as Rio ground his dick against my clit. The bed dipped, Kane’s warm smoky scent making my blood boil. There was the faint scent of bacon too, which made my stomach grumble with hunger. I hadn’t eaten since our date.
Rio’s lips left mine, and I whimpered from the loss of contact. But they were quickly replaced by Kane’s and Rio rolled off me so Kane could take over. I didn’t know how long it had been since they’d gotten home and Rio had knotted me, but none of that mattered; I was going to need them all before I was satisfied.
Kane kissed me like he hadn’t in months, and I wrapped my legs around him, pulling him closer to me. He kissed down my neck, sucking on a spot that he seemed to like the most.
“That’s where you’ll bite me.” It wasn’t a question so much as a proclamation that the spot was his to take when it was time.
“Yes.” He pulled back to look into my eyes. “I’m sorry we weren’t here. I should have listened to my instincts.”
“No. You listened to me. That’s more important sometimes.” I smiled, and he chuckled, moving his lips to my nipple and sucking it between his lips. “Fuck me, that feels good.”
I wanted to take things slowly but also wanted him to flip me already and pound into me. My hips moved against him, my slick coating his dick as he plucked my other nipple between his fingers.
“How do you want it, sweets?” Sweets. I liked that.
“From behind. Fucking rail me into the mattress.” My voice had turned needy, and I didn’t care for a single second because it seemed to light a fire in Kane’s eyes to match his scent.
He bit one nipple while pinching the other, and I cried out, my cunt feeling like it was going to cramp up on me. With a pop of his lips as he released me, he moved off me and flipped me like I weighed nothing.
“Show me that ass, Kayla girl. I want to admire what I’m about to fuck.” He smacked one cheek, making me squeal with delight.
Jesus, I was lost to these alphas.
I got to my knees and rested my forearms on the bed, my ass in the air, preening like a fucking peacock, and I loved every second of it. “Do you like what you see, Alpha?”
He growled deep in his throat in approval, and I wiggled my ass, presenting it to him for the taking.
“It’s a tough decision whether to fuck your ass or this sexy pussy.” He ran his hand over my cheek and then between my legs, cupping my sex possessively.
