And then?—
“Finish up, you two,” Knox rumbles.
My whole body jolts, and my eyes fly open. I try to jerk away from Dakota, but he holds me close, not letting me run away.
For a split second, my chest seizes, terror ripping through me as my mind paints a picture of Knox flying across the room, his palm cracking across my face fordaring to kiss his beta. I even brace for it, muscles tensing, throat tightening around the scream I don’t let out.
But nothing happens.
Knox simply leans against the doorway like he’s been there the whole time, watching us. His broad shoulders are relaxed, and his gaze is steady. He doesn’t look furious. In fact, he doesn’t even look disappointed.
No. He looks…excited?
The pack alpha’s eyes pin me in place, molten heat pouring into my skin until it burns hotter than the bathwater. And that’s when I see the thick outline of his cock straining against his pants, shameless, like he doesn’t give a damn if I notice. Like he wants me to.
“Sorry, alpha,” Dakota smirks at Knox, his arms still locked around me, holding me steady, like he’s not afraid in the least.
I breathe through the jagged edge of my fear, forcing it down. “Sorry.” My voice is barely a whisper as the panic in my chest begs to take over.
But Knox’s mouth curves slow. Dangerous.
“Finish up,” he repeats, that alpha-deep voice curling around every nerve in my body. His gaze moves from Dakota’s flushed face to mine, and back again like he loves what he’s seeing. Then he pushes off the doorway and turns. “Join us in the bedroom when you’re done.”
And then he’s gone.
My pulse hammers in my ears, and the ache between my thighs grows.
I have no idea what just happened, but I don't have time to figure it out.
Dakota slowly stands, helping me up at the same time. His knees are just as wobbly as mine, with his erection tenting the front of his gym shorts. Once again, I thinkabout last night. About his dick sliding in and out of Knox’s hot mouth. The length and girth were beautiful. A perfect beta cock.
I wonder if Knox will let me touch Dakota tonight.
My hands tremble with excitement as I rush the towel over my skin, swiping at the beads of water. My heart won’t slow—half panic, half need—and the more I try to calm myself, the harder it beats.
The second I drop the towel, Dakota’s palm comes to the back of my neck, holding me firm and steady. Then he urges me forward, guiding me out of the bathroom. The heat of his body hovers close behind me, his lilac scent clinging like smoke I can’t escape.
When the bedroom door swings open, I stumble at what waits inside.
All of them.
The whole pack.
Alex and Tadeo stand on the other side of the room. Both alphas are stripped down to their underwear. Alex’s pale skin is mapped with scars—slashes and gouges that echo Knox’s. His loose boxers sag just enough that the flushed head of his cock peeks over the waistband.
Beside him, Tadeo is darker and broader, like he’s cut from something heavier. His fitted, forest-green briefs cling tight, cupping the thick bulge between his thighs. His chest is dusted in black curls scattered across pecs carved deep with muscle. He doesn’t have any scars, just smooth power, as if no blade or claw could ever manage to mar him.
And then there’s Knox. Tall, powerful, long black hair, and intense green eyes.
The sight of them all together knocks the breath from my lungs, and slick threatens to drip down the inside of my thighs.
I thought I’d be embarrassed, maybe even ashamed the first time they all took me—I was with my old pack—but instead my body burns hotter. The air feels weighted, thick with their swirling scents and anticipation.
Dakota’s hand tightens on my neck, steadying me as if he knows my knees might give. “Where do you want her, Knox?” The beta’s voice dips low, throaty and rough at the edges.
Knox’s green eyes fix on me. “On the bed.”
Dakota guides me forward gently, not giving me the chance to falter. My legs move, driven by instinct and heat, until my knees hit the mattress. I climb up, my palms sinking into the soft comforter as my pussy lips grow slippery with my arousal.
