“What is it?” I ask, hoping to hell there isn’t a major problem at the restaurant.
“Graham just texted me. Her sister just went into heat too,” Callum says.
We all give each other a hopeful look. If worse came to worst, I’d follow her to Chicago, spending however long it took to convince her that this was real. I didn’t think it would cometo that though; I feel as though she’s made her choice. Her sister staying would just make her decision and transition to living here easier.
I’ll help her through her fears and give her every reassurance that she needs. Moving to a new country—starting over—isn’t easy for anyone, but for someone like Maisie, I know change hits harder. We’ll be the pack she needs; I’ll be the Alpha and pack lead they all need.
Together, we’ll get through this.
I loved her before I knew she was my scent match, and I just need to tell her that.
I kiss her warm temple, hopeful that she’ll be out of heat soon and I’ll get to tell her exactly how I feel.

There’sa low hum next to my ear and I groan as I shift my body. I’m sweltering, but there’s still this deep ache that won’t go away.
I can’t help but to whine, because I need an Alpha. The noise seems to help them understand what they need to do.
The strong scent of tobacco and vanilla fills my nose, and I hum in approval. When I blink open my eyes, his handsome face is right there. He has some light stubble growing on his chin and I rub my hand along it before dragging my hand down his body to grab his cock.
The Alpha laughs, but doesn’t hesitate in crawling on top of my body. We’re nearly on top of my other Alpha, but he doesn’t seem to mind. In fact, I know he likes it.
He likes to watch, as he should.
My sweet Alpha, the one that makes my heart feel light and my problems minuscule, looks down at me like my world ends and begins with him and he smiles.
“You’re so beautiful, this almost doesn’t feel real.”
With that, I grab his knot, ensuring him that this is indeed real, while also directing him gently to my pussy, telling him what I want.
Luckily, he doesn’t need any further direction as he slowly presses himself inside me. The relief is near instant, but I know his knot and cum will make me feel even better.
I part my lips to beg, but no words come out, just a noise of frustration. His brows furrow, and I use the heel of my foot hooking around his waist, pressing his body against mine. He moans, giving me exactly what I want, no, what I deserve, as his knot glides into my core.
I toss my head back in relief as his knot swells, stretching me and taking away the ache. He feels perfect as he holds his weight above me, his hips rutting against me harshly until he floods me with his cum, which eases the pain even more.
He braces his weight on his forearms as he lies on top of me and I run my nails over his hair, bringing his mouth to my neck. My Alpha sucks and kisses the skin, not giving me what I really want, and I sigh dramatically.
“One day, hopefully soon, my mark will be right here,” he says with a kiss on my throat. “I’ll need a bonding ring or something too so that all the tourists who come on tours know that I’m a happily taken man.”
That has me turning into his shoulder and sinking my own teeth into his skin. He said he needed a mark for others to know who he belongs to and I’ve solved the problem, because he’s mine.
He hisses, but accepts the bite that won’t bond us, but it looks good on him nonetheless.
“You’re very bitey during heat, pet,” he says and I just hold him closer to me.
“You alright?” our Pack Alpha says.
Of course he’s alright, he’s knotted inside me, wearing my mark just as a good Alpha should.
“Yeah, I’m good. In control,” he says.
He knows how I feel about his response, the way my needy pussy grips his knot even harder. He moans into my neck and, fully sated, I drift back off to sleep.
My back is pressed against the bathroom wall, my Alpha’s mouth against my throat, his cock deep inside me as I grab his neck and press his face even closer to my throat.
