“I can’t be too important to you if you would have so easily gone with another.”

Okay, I’m already done with this game. I get up in her face, making Colter stop moving. I box them in, and Colter drops her legs so she’s standing, pinned between us as Colter puts his back to a tree for support.

“Let’s get one thing straight,” I tell her, inches from her lips. “The second I got your scent in my lungs, I was gone.” I don’t blink as I stare her down, holding the sides of her face in my hands. “All of us are gone. You fucking own us. If you want the truth, the thought of another omega approaching me would have made me vomit if I hadn’t heard Colter enter when he did. I would have attacked her before I let her touch me. Do you understand?”

Calai looks a little scared, as she should. She’s playing with fire. “Notoneof those piece of shit people in that compound deserved you. And maybe we don’t deserve you either, but we’re bastards so we’re keeping you anyways. There is nowhere you can run that we won’t follow. Nowhere you can hide that we won’t find. There is absolutely no way in this world or the next you can conceive of a life that doesn’t include the three of us being surly bastards and claiming you, keeping you hidden in our home.

“You’ve hidden from us far too long, turning into this perfect fucking specimen that all three of us would do absolutely anything to keep safe. We might be a little rough around the edges, but you’re not going anywhere, omega. We’ve only just caught you, and we’re not in the habit of releasing our prey.”

I kiss her, and fuck if it doesn’t permanently alter me. I can feel her eyes still open in shock as my lips press into her, and then open wider as other parts of me press into her. There’s no hiding what she does to my body, so I don’t even try.

I press my tongue to her mouth, trying to demand entrance. She gasps like she’s suddenly run out of air, and I use it as an opportunity to steal further into her body. I don’t play soft or gentle, I claim. I can already feel my cock leaking, and my fangs are aching, wanting to sink into the flesh so close by.

Calai doesn’t resist the kiss very long, as helpless against the connection we share as I am. When her tongue starts actively sliding against mine, I growl.

She whimpers and goes boneless in my arms, making me flex my hips into her to show her what she’s doing to me, a promise of what’s to come once we get her back to our house. I torture myself by moving down to her neck, licking my way up it and pressing my sharp canines lightly against it.

She doesn’t pull away, doesn’t protest. “Oh!” She says, all breathily, tipping her head back further. “Th-those feel so good. Why do they feel so good?”

“Because your body wants our bite, omega,” Colton whispers.

I know we need to get her home, so I stop, taking one more lingering kiss from her before stepping back. I adjust myself and smirk when I feel her eyes on me.

“I want to ask what’s in there, but I’m also thinking I’m not ready to know the answer,” our omega admits, watching me move myself into a more comfortable position.

“In case you ever get any notion in your head they miss you back at the compound, know that they suspect that you killed your friend.”

I hate to bring that final severance of home upon her, but she has to know we are literally her only option. Also, the best.

“W-what? I would never harm her! She was everything…” she trails off, getting lost in her head. She brings her fingers up to her bruised lips, feeling them. “Dara knew I was upset though by Eln’s actions. I suppose it would be a logical leap to assume I was a scorned lover exacting my revenge.”

Her voice sounds almost clinical, none of the heat she had when she was drilling us with questions moments ago.

I watch Colter hold her for a minute, his hands on her hips. His face tells me he’s as twisted up as I am.

He runs his nose along the side of her neck, opposite from where I was kissing her. Brushing his lips lightly, he visibly represses a shudder. “God, omega. The things I’ve been dreaming about doing to you. Your scent has consumed me.”

“Enough!” Kit barks. “We need to get the hell out of these woods before we’re discovered. Once we have her home and safe and well-hidden again, you can sniff her all you want, and describe every last sordid fantasy you have. But for now, we need to move our asses and get out of here. We’re on borrowed time here and we do not need anyone picking up our trail. Can you get the job done Colter, or do I need to take over?” Kit’s chest is pumping, his breathing heavy.

“I’ve got her, Alpha.”

Calai’s brows wrinkle in confusion, likely at the title Colter just called Kit, but there’s no response because Kit puts her gag back in her mouth. I can’t say I hate it.

“Mmhmm ssmmm” she says.

“If you make too much noise, I will put that blindfold on in a flash. Don’t tempt me with a good time. I may want you safe, but that doesn’t mean I need you to be comfortable.”

Kit grins at our girl before man handling her towards the jeep, definitely taking too much joy out of carrying her over his shoulder once more.

I watch Calai’s face as she bumps along upside down, apparently done fighting us for the time being. Spoil sport. I can’t get enough of looking at her, trying to learn all her little tells.

Right now, it looks like she’s confused about a lot of things, which sounds about right. I know she’s pissed about being treated like a sack of wheat, but I also know there’s a part of her that enjoys being manhandled like that. The slight scent of her arousal floating on the air tells me all I need to know.

“Mhhf mmmfs sno,” Calai tries to say, so I take the liberty of translating.

“Did you just say you’re dying to know how this alpha-omega dynamic works? I must tell you, little one, we are going to enjoy showing you.”

Her face turns beet red, and I pat myself on the back. Glaring at me, Kit buckles her into the seatbelt in the backseat with a gentleness rarely exhibited by him. Before sliding into the driver’s seat, he gives me a look that would surely curdle lesser men’s balls, but I’d curdle my own before I let anything happen to this woman now in my care.
