I DON’T CARE WHAT THE MOVIES SAY, WATER DOES NOT MAKE GOOD LUBE

Rook

The next several days after our pack movie night pass in a blur. The guys and I all have a ton of work to catch up on during the day. Blake’s been happy through it all, never complaining once that she wasn’t getting enough attention. She may be okay with the bare minimum after going so long with nothing, butI’m not okay. I feel like such a needy bastard, but I miss my girl.

She’s been napping for a while now, and it’s late enough I think she might sleep through the night. The back door opening startles me, but then I hear a splash, which probably means Kas is out there.

Whenever he gets anxious or he can’t turn his brain off, he skinny dips. I don’t know why, but it really seems to help, so I don’t say anything unless he stays underwater too long. I toss on a sweatshirt and head out back to keep an eye on him. The night air is much colder up in the mountains than it is back home.

I plop down in my chair and open the e-reader app on my phone, content to let Kas do his thing and make sure he doesn’t drown. He pops his head up and sends me a small smile before going back to his laps. The back door opening startles me away from reading about Cricket’s mate drama, and I turn to see my Omega wrapped up in a blanket.

“Hey Angel, everything okay?” I ask quietly, holding out my arms for her.

She skips over to me, happily falling into my arms with a sweet little sigh. “I’m fine, I just woke up, and you weren’t in the room, so I decided to come find you,” she murmurs, stretching up to kiss me.

This girl is everything good in the world in a tiny package. I can’t believe she’s ours.

“Sorry, love. I worked late and noticed Kas was out here, so I came out to keep an eye on him.”

She eyes the water nervously. “Is he okay?” she asks quietly.

I nod, sending calm down our bond while tugging on my bond with Kas at the same time, hoping he gets the message to come up for air, so I don’t have to move Blake off my lap. “He’s fine, Angel. When he gets anxious or overwhelmed, he likes to skinny dip. Says it takes his mind off of things. He would probably love it if you joined him.” I raise my eyebrows at her.

Taking my suggestion in stride, she stands up and tosses the blanket onto a nearby chair, exposing her long, lean legs. The only thing she’s wearing is my blue shirt I gave her the first night she slept in my bed.

I groan. “Are you trying to kill me, Angel? You look so damned good in my clothes.”

She giggles, holding out her hand to me. “Why don’t you come swimming with me?” I would give this girl anything in the world as long as she never stops looking at me like that.

Smirking at her, I reach one hand behind my neck and pull my shirt off, dropping it onto the chair. “You wanna play, baby?” She nods, eyes wide and perfume blooming. “Go get in the pool with Kas, and let’s play.” I growl.

Stripping her own shirt off, the bratty little Omega smirks at me when it’s clear I’m at a loss for words when faced with her gorgeous body. Then runs over to the other side of the pool where the steps are.

I growl again, but this time out of fear. “Angel!” I bark. “Please walk when you’re around the pool. I don’t want you to slip and hurt yourself.” My tone is much softer this time as the initial spike of fear passes.

She looked startled when I first barked at her, but by the end of my sentence she softens visibly and smiles at me. “Sorry, Daddy. I’ll be more careful.”

If she wasn’t getting fucked in the pool before, she is now. She knows exactly what calling me Daddy does to me, and I’m more than ready to be back inside my girl again.

The second she steps into the pool, Kas pops his head up taking a deep, gasping breath. He looks to me in confusion and then does a double take when he sees our Omega standing in the shallow end of the pool; completely naked and with a deep frown marring her pretty face.

“Hey, Princess. What’s wrong?” he asks quietly.

“What’s wrong?!” she hisses. I don’t know about him, but I’m completely taken aback by her tone. We’ve done a lot of overbearing and downright stupid things in front of her, but she’s never been this angry before.

I can see his jaw open in shock. “B, what’s going on? What did I do?”

Her cheeks are getting red, and she lookspissed.

“How long were you underwater, Kaspian…” she pauses, glancing at me. “Sparrow,” she finishes, narrowing her eyes. And holy shit, I think she was about to say his middle name. I’ve been trying to find out the guys’ middle names since we were kids, and to this day, I still don’t know them. Blake’s been around for a few weeks, and she already knows?

Then again, I’m really not surprised. With a face and scent that sweet, she could commit serious crimes and we’d all praise her for how smart she is to not get caught.

I tune back in to a sheepish Kas. “Ummm… notthatlong?”

She rolls her eyes. “You’re not dying on my watch because I literally wouldn’t survive it. Sixty secondsMAXunderwater from now on, got it?” If I thought my Angel wasn’t scary, I was wrong. This version of Blake is a little terrifying. Clearly, he thinks so too, since he readily agrees with her.
