“We courted a few omegas in the past. Sometimes you just aren’t a match with a specific pack. Omegas bring a different dynamic into an existing one, and it can be tough to navigate multiple people’s relationships.” She watched me as I went on. “There was one omega who we had met that we were sure was going to be a perfect match. We were all excited for her, but most of all we wanted Aiden not to be so lonely.” She nodded, taking a bite of the chocolate I had given her. “The thing was, we all fell for her. Hard.” I felt her still a little at my admission. “I’m sure you know by now, an omega becomes the center of the pack, holding a relationship with everyone inside of it. All of us were in agreement that she was the one for us. We courted her, prepared a room for her nest - we would have done anything for her. We were so blinded by our feelings that we didn’t notice the little issues that popped up - she didn't like that Aiden had so many outside hobbies, and wanted him home constantly. And she showed some signs of jealousy that Dominic and I would play together on our own.” I felt Piper stiffen a bit at this and hoped it wasn’t due to her supposed disgust that Dominic was so worried about. “But either way it didn’t matter. She told us she wanted a bond, wanted to be bitten into our pack, and we agreed. But she wanted to wait on it. We were happy to let her take her time. We helped her through her first heat cycle, and I’ve never seen my pack so excited and at peace. But come to find out, she had been angling the entire time to get at Aiden’s colleague, who was in a highly influential pack that includes several CEOs and a politician. They have a lot of sway in our town. She ended up ditching us as soon as they showed interest in courting her.” Piper gave a barely audible gasp as I downed the rest of the champagne. “It happened only a few days before we were going to bite her in. She didn’t even tell us. Just ghosted. We were so worried until we found out through other friends that she had found a new pack and had bonded with them within days of meeting.” I shut my eyes, reliving those dark weeks after. I hadn’t talked about it much with anyone, although our friends and colleagues knew about it. My poor pack was shattered, and Aiden was a mess. He swore off omegas forever after that. But I knew that Dominic held the most guilt. “It’s not that we mind if an omega courts multiple packs, but we were very close to biting her in. Then just like that, she disappeared and joined another without so much as a word. It did a number on our trust in people.”
“I can see why you are hesitant to go through that again. I swear Declan, I’ll always be honest with you and I would never intentionally try to hurt you or your pack. I’m still figuring things out, but I’ve never felt this way about-” She cut her words short, looking away. “I understand why Dominic feels guarded. I would too. But I want to get to know him. And all of you.” I ran my fingers through her hair, idling as I gazed at her, ignoring the movie.
“Dominic took it hard. He was the one who introduced her to Aiden’s colleague.” Piper sat up straight, her eyes wide.
“What?”
“Yes, they were out on a date and he ran into them. It was probably what she had been hoping would happen - she had asked us about meeting our colleagues frequently. He carries a lot of guilt over that and feels like he was blind to her intentions. He tends to be a bit distrustful after all of it. So please don’t take anything he says personally. He’s not mad at you. He’s mad at himself.” I rested my head back on the pillows. Looking up at the twinkling fairy lights that were weaved through the gauze that created our little tent. I had just laid out our truth, why our pack was without an omega and had been for some time. I owed her that at least. Our broken pack had taken years to truly heal, if we ever did at all. The public humiliation of declaring our intention, introducing her to everyone, and taking the time to integrate her into our lives only to have her be paraded around by one of the most powerful packs in town was a reminder of how we had almost bound ourselves to someone who could easily throw us away. I turned to watch her reaction. She had stopped eating, looking over at me.
“I’m sorry Declan. Well, at least one thing is consistent in both our worlds. There are assholes in both.” I burst out laughing at her as she broke into a grin. I pulled her toward me, sniffing into her hair, trying as hard as I could to get her scent to no avail.
“Tell me one thing, Piper. If you had the chance to go back to where you came from, would you go?” She looked away, her eyes focusing on the lights above us.
“I used to think so. But now, I’m not so sure. There are things here I think I wouldn’t be able to leave.” Her eyes drifted over to me, suddenly deep with lust. I realized her hands had started to drift over as well. She was running them up and down my torso over my shirt, curling into me for warmth. I put my thumb up to her lower lip, gently running it along her soft skin until she shivered.
“I’m glad to hear that.” I tilted her chin up, trying desperately to get any scent from her at all. I knew she would smell heavenly. As she parted her lips for me, I leaned into her, gently exploring her mouth with mine as she let out a moan. The noise went straight to my cock, filling my jeans until I had to angle my hips away from her to prevent her from feeling my hardness. It didn’t deter her though - I felt her shift her body so that she was pushing her own pelvis against mine, grinding into me while her hands reached behind my neck, pulling us tighter together.
“Ohfuck,Piper!” I tried to keep my voice down - we were inside the gauzy tent and far enough away from other people that we had relative privacy, but I didn’t want to draw attention our way if it made her feel shy. She rolled her body on top of mine, straddling me as she pressed her center against me through our clothes. My hands gripped her hair, holding her close while our kisses became desperate. She was intoxicating - I didn’t even have her scent and I already knew she was made for me. Forus. I wanted nothing more than to slowly peel her clothes off piece by piece and worship her body, everyone else be damned. I’d lick her sweet center in the middle of the park until she screamed, making sure everyone knew who she belonged to.
I could feel her heart rate picking up and tried to calm myself down. I peppered kisses down her face, her jaw, and then her neck, trying to keep it above the clothes only. She was still on top of me squirming for more friction, so I held her hips and slowly ground up to give her some relief.
“Declan!” She panted, her lips now swollen and her eyelids heavy with arousal. “More.” Her order was sweet music to my ears, but the greatest torture to my cock. I couldn't do more with her, not without risking her health and putting her into a compromising position here in public. I pushed her hair back behind her ears, using my hands to warm her body as she straddled me.
“I promise you can have more. Just not right now sweetheart.” She whined, a real Omega whine, and it called out to me to comfort her, give her what she needed. I groaned through clenched teeth. “You can’t go into pre-heat right now. But I will give you whatever you want, Omega. I promise. We just have to make it through the night, keep you healthy.” She nodded, and I rolled us over on our sides again, making circles across her bare arms with my fingers, trying to calm her down.
“Well, sometimes I think getting some relief actually keeps my heat from coming early.” Her eyes looked down as she spoke, a pink blush spreading across her cheeks. I looked at her, pushing a stray lock of hair back behind her ear.
“What kind of relief?” I asked my voice husky at what she was implying. She didn’t answer, but ground herself against me again, as if asking for permission. With that knowledge, who was I to deny her something that would help keep her heat in check? I pushed back, gripping her soft hips as she squirmed. Soon she was gasping as she rubbed her center against my hardness. Our clothes didn’t matter, if anything they made the situation hotter. It was enough fabric to stop direct stimulation, but Piper wasn’t deterred. Her thighs clenched around me like a vice as she ground herself harder and faster until her eyes rolled back and her body jerked, her hand clasping over her mouth to muffle her orgasm.
“Omega, you’re incredible,” I whispered as her body rolled with the orgasm, finally collapsing onto me in a pile of limp limbs as she caught her breath. I stroked her hair, the movie now just background noise as I cradled her to me.
“I can tell you are close to heat. I would love to give you everything and more, satisfy you in every way possible, and make you come over and over. But I want your head to be clear when you pick a pack to help you through it.” She nodded and bit her lip.
“I know. I just… want you so badly. Will you help me through my heat when it comes?” I leaned in to kiss her forehead, which thankfully wasn’t too warm. She was still in the clear.
“I would be honored to.” I bundled her up in the blankets that surrounded us and pulled her into my lap, where we watched the end of the movie. After a few more snacks, she calmed down and was in a cuddly mood. My cock was still rock hard, but all I needed to do was make sure it wasn’t too obvious before I got home to take care of it.
Once the movie was over I drove her back home, both of us happy and in a dreamlike state. She was different from the last omega we courted, I knew this in my bones. She might be hesitant in her new role, but we could wait until she was ready. I would court her as long as she needed until she felt comfortable with us. As I walked her to the front of the Omega House courting wing, I leaned down to give her a kiss. She grabbed the back of my head again, pulling me in for an even deeper one. My inner beta was pleased to see her enthusiasm and approval of me, and the man in me was begging to pick her up and take her back to my pack to care for her forever. But I was a gentleman, and after giving her a kiss she would remember, I let her go inside.
Chapter 18
Piper
I practically flew up to my room, my heart racing as I recalled the evening. Declan had been perfect - a gentleman, a great conversationalist and he treated me like a queen. I couldn't remember why I had ever been hesitant to date a pack, especially if they were all this awesome. I just had to get through to Dominic - the tall, dark, and scowly one of the group. After smelling him on Declan, I couldn’t get the idea of both of them out of my head. What would it be like, having them touch me as well as each other during a heat? My fantasies went wild. I reached for the black box of toys again. At this rate, I was going to be using the toys every day to stave off my growing desire. At least my suppressants worked to keep my scent under control and the slick from wetting my panties. Here, in my room, I could finally get my sexual frustrations out. Just as I was about to whip out a knotted dildo, someone knocked on my door.
“What is it?” I snapped, too horny to deal with anyone right now.
“It’s just me, Bella.” My anger subsided a bit. I felt for the sweet omega who lived vicariously through my stories. I sighed, putting my toy box away under the bed. I’d have to indulge in them later. I went to the door to let Bella in. She looked at me with excited eyes, and I knew she wanted to talk all about my date. So, I motioned to my bed and she flew over, waiting for me to tell her everything.
Hours later, she was still laying on my bed as we gossiped and laughed together. I rolled over and grabbed another chocolate from the box Aiden had sent over earlier and handed it to her. “What about you, Bella? Any luck with packs?” She sighed and flopped back against the bed.
“I haven’t found a scent match yet! I went out with a pack who was okay - their smell wasn't offensive or anything, just not my favorite. They were alright - the date was nice. But they chose not to continue courting me.” I could sense her mood change when she admitted they had chosen not to court her. Now that I had omega hormones flowing through me, I understood that rejection hurt terribly, especially from alphas and a pack. I reached over to rub her shoulder.
“I’m so sorry, Bella. I’m sure you’ll find a good match!” She nodded, popping the chocolate in her mouth.
“Yea, I know. Plus, it could be worse. I mean sometimes I feel bad about not being in one of the upscale Omega Academies, but at least we are in the safer side of the country.” I propped myself up on my elbows to look at her.
“What do you mean?”
