“Take her to the living room. We have to have a talk before she goes into heat,” Hayes said. The alpha tone wasn’t a bark, just serious enough to snap me back to reality.
He was right. This had to happen before I fell under the heat’s spell.
Greer sat right down in the center of the couch with me while Kota and Rylan took either side of him.
Hayes stood in front of us as he took charge of the situation. He looked so powerful and confident standing there that I found myself shifting until Greer gripped my hips, holding me still.
“You’re killing me, little bat. Let’s get through this then we’ll take care of you,” he promised, nipping at my ear. I shuddered but forced myself to focus on the alpha.
“We need to talk boundaries and consent.
“Look, I’m so tired, but I’m not in heat yet. When I am, I’m going to want all of you. I don’t want any fighting or jealousy. We’re just going to have a good time if you’re all willing. I want you to be willing.”
“I’m in,” Greer said without hesitation.
“Same,” Rylan and Kota agreed.
“Me, too,” Hayes added.
“Okay. Then that brings me to bites. I want the last two bites from my pack. This will be easier if we’re bonded, but the truth is I’ve wanted them for a while.”
“Good, because I’ve been dying to give it to you,” Kota practically cheered.
“If you want my teeth on you, omega, you’ve got it,” Hayes said. “You can bite me back, too.”
“Other than that, just keep me safe and happy,” I said with a shrug. “I promise you, if I don’t like something, my omega will tell you very firmly.”
“I have no doubt about that, little bat,” Greer chuckled. “You can be vicious when you want to. I love it.”
The way his scent swelled told me he was thinking about his rut.
It was one of the best experiences of my life. I certainly wasn’t going to discount it.
“For now, I just want to go to bed with my pack.”
“I’ve got rush delivery on that nest, and we’ll pick out a room in the morning. For now, let’s get you upstairs.”
Everyone quickly rushed through their nighttime routines before we all piled into my room. They didn’t care that it was a bit too small, finding room to settle and stay close to me.
I lay on Greer’s chest while Rylan lay on Kota. Hayes was at my side, his hand running up and down my back.
It was perfect.
Now that I wasn’t hiding the bond, I could feel how excited and happy my two bonded mates were.
I couldn’t wait until I could feel all of them.
Chapter
Twenty-Eight
Roxie
Despite the intensity the night before, I was feeling fairly sane when I woke up.
The guys were still passed out when I crawled out of bed. All the extra sleep during the drive last night and a full night of sleep was enough for me.
I snagged my phone and my laptop from my bag that was waiting by the door and headed down for the living room.
