Too bad Flint’s hands were making it impossible to think, let alone get out any kind of coherent thought.
My blush deepened, feeling out of control. I got lost in sensation as Flint nibbled along my neck while grinding his palm against my clit. I was so close… so…
“Say it,” Heath growled savagely.
His command sent a dark thrill through me that pushed me over the edge.
“I belong to the Howling Echo!” I cried, stars dancing behind my eyes.
My body tried to curl forward as my abs clenched, but Flint’s powerful arm held me in place against his chest. My hips bucked, and I screamed out in ecstasy, my legs spread wide, my pleasure on display for my alphas.
Dragging his tongue across his lips, Gage’s eyes were fixated on the sight of Flint’s fingers relentlessly coaxing more pleasure from me.
That was the last thing I saw as my body went slack and my mind shut down. Flint’s fingers were still buried inside of me when sleep suddenly claimed me.
I woke up to a gentle swaying, but when I opened my eyes, I couldn’t see anything. I flailed, and someone pulled something off of my face. Gage was the one carrying me, and I looked down to find a blanket draped over me.
“We found a safe place we can stay for the next five days, princess. It’s not… ideal.”
He said the word regretfully, but as soon as he carried me across the threshold, the tension inside of me released. My wolf felt instantly relieved to be out of the open.
From what I could see, the first floor was an open floorplan with the kitchen in the back and windows opening into theforest beyond. Gage carried me upstairs, and the first bedroom he brought me to contained a king-sized bed that overlooked the forest through an enormous bay window. My wolf instantly hated it.
“Not this one,” I whispered.
Without hesitation, he carried me off to a different room. The next bedroom had one window with heavy drapes gathered to one side. The bed was only a queen, but I didn’t care. My wolf wanted to hole up here in the safety of her darkened den.
“Yes,” I breathed.
Gage laid me gently on the bed, and when I sat up, I realized I was naked beneath the blanket. He pulled the blinds to block out the outside, then turned to me as the other two filed in.
“You’ve been continuing to drink the contraceptive brew?” he asked.
“Of course, alpha,” I answered.
I’d had it every day, even while running from the Ironwood pack. Especially while on the run… I couldn’t afford to bring a child into this mess.
“Good.” Gage’s praise made me hungry for him, for all of them. “Then it’ll stay in your system during the heat.”
“Your body needs more rest before the heat hits in earnest,” Heath warned.
They all looked so serious, and when I glanced at Heath, the question spilled from my lips before I’d even consciously thought it, “How do you know so much about the heat?”
He bowed his head. “Because I once helped a wolf through her heat.”
“Your… mate?” I gasped, betrayal ripping a hole straight through my chest.
“No!” Heath rushed to reassure me, his eyes meeting mine and begging me to understand. “Her mate had died the previousyear, and she hadn’t chosen a new one yet. She knew I… had no interest in being mated with anyone. She said I felt… safe.”
I snorted, thinking she hadn’t known Heath very well, then. He’d told me himself he was dangerous.
Gage joined me on the bed, taking my hand. It disappeared between his two massive ones.
“We need to hear what you want, princess,” he said solemnly.
Heath nodded. “Once the heat truly begins…”
“That wasn’t the start of my heat?” I wasn’t sure how much more of this I could take.
