He said it so simply, like it was cut and dry now. There was no hesitation in his eyes.
“Glad to hear you say that. Now we only get to have one more awkward conversation out before it’s in the past,” Atlas said as he headed over to the couch, dropping down. He glanced at his watch, “We’ve got about an hour left.”
The words had barely left his mouth when another knock echoed out. Dean went over to answer it, this time, Ezra standing on the other side.
“We thought we wouldn’t see you for another hour,” Dean said as he closed the door behind the alpha.
Ezra walked in holding the packages we had given him earlier.
“One of my guys covered it for me, told me to go,” he said as he added his snacks to the pile. “Thanks for the invite.”
“Dude, we have to drop the formalities,” Atlas called from the couch. “Come join us. We were just discussing this little pack of ours.”
“Oh good,” Ezra said drily. Collin led the way to the living area while I hung back to gauge how Ezra was feeling. I relaxed when he gave me a warm smile, taking my hand and leading me with him. It was such a simple touch but it chased away all of the lingering heaviness from my body.
Instead of letting me sit on my own, Ezra sat and pulled me into his lap. Everyone looked equally as shocked as I felt. Ezra just chuckled.
“Look, I just had a good talking to from Serenity today. I get it, I’m an idiot. I’ve been a hermit for so long that I’m pushing away the one good thing that’s ever happened to me.” His fingers toyed with mine as he talked and nobody spoke up letting him continue at his own pace. Ezra always had a way of commanding respect and I loved that the guys were giving him his own space to handle this.
“I’m sure if you guys are talking about the pack, you’re figuring out if everyone is willing to be in this pack. I don’t know how that’s going to look, we’re all independent, have set jobs and lives. Combining it all will be…strange at best. But I’m willing to see where this goes. Ellie is mine.”
Ezra said the last two words in a growl. He nuzzled into my back, making sure his scent was on my body as well. I knew he could smell the others on me and likely couldn’t help but complete the set.
As if someone flipped a switch, everything changed.
My head spun, blurring my vision as an overwhelming burst of heat consumed me whole. Sweat formed along my skin and my pussy ached enough that I squeezed my thighs together.
It hadn’t consumed me completely, but I was really fucking close.
“Guys.” My voice was wavering and they all tensed, heads tilting back as their noses went to the air, breathing in deep and cursing in unison.
“Oh god, what do we do?” Dean was the first to speak up.
“Now we know who handles emergencies,” I teased in a weak attempt to calm them.
Dean barely gave me a side eye before explaining. “We can’t do this at my place. There’s not enough room and we’re in an apartment. We’ll be fighting off every alpha in the area.”
Ezra squeezed his arms around me. “My place is above the diner, it’d be the same issue as here.” His voice was husky and it had a whimper escaping as I wiggled on his lap. He stilled me with his hands and I forced myself to stand, going to the window and throwing it open.
The cool night air cleared my head a bit but it also blasted the guys with a fresh wave of my scent. They all froze and shifted uncomfortably.
“I’ve got maybe a few hours. I need you guys to tell me now if you’re not going to ride this out with me so I can take suppressors or something,” I panted out.
“Oh we’re riding it out together, gorgeous,” Atlas said. “My place is out, it’s a duplex.”
“My place it is,” Collin said as he stood up. “Texting everyone directions.”
Good, because I was swiftly running out of time.
Ezra
Being trapped in an enclosed space with Ellie as she descended into her heat was pure torture. I’d always considered myself a gentleman but right now, my hands were gripping the steering wheel like my life depended on it.
My cock was hard at the overwhelming scent of her pheromones and I wanted nothing more than to pull over and fuck her right here on the side of the road.
Ellie groaned and rolled down the window in an act of desperation. She was practically leaning out of it as I drove through town. Reaching over, I looped my finger in her belt loop so she didn’t jump out or something in her haze.
By the time we made it to her and Micah’s house we were both tense and ready to explode.
