“You’re an amazing chef, Simon. Thank you.” I beamed up at him. He returned my grin and kissed me quickly on the lips as the guys rose to make their own plates.

Every meal, they always served me first. And gave me entirely more than my stomach could handle, but whatever I didn’t eat, they always gobbled up.

“Why do you always serve me, but make them all get their own?” I asked before taking my first bite of noodles. I moaned as the flavors exploded on my tongue. It should be illegal for a man to cook this well.

“Because you’re the most important person in this house and you get the first plate. It is how it should be in our circles,” Elias answered with a matter of fact tone as he stole Julian’s seat to sit beside me. “Omegas are to be cherished and spoiled. They are the foundation of our culture and the mothers of alphas. It is how it should be.”

“But it isn’t.” I frowned down at my plate of food, my stomach suddenly rolling in nauseous waves.

“No.” Elias let out a harsh exhale. “But I would like it to be. It’s why we’ve worked so hard to amass wealth. Wealth is power. Even in Society circles, the younger generation is opening their eyes and is seeing the wrongness of how omegas have been treated. It’s a slow process, but the seeds have been sown.”

I cocked my head to the side as I regarded him. “Do you know anything about Dreamscape?”

I hadn’t mentioned the name of the organization that helped me escape until now. By all accounts, I should have never mentioned the name, but I needed to see if these four played any part in the group or my escape.

Elias furrowed his brow as he shook his head. “What is Dreamscape?”

“That’s the group of people that helped me plan my escape. They provided some transportation, and the new identity once I reached Washington. They even helped get me the interview for the front desk receptionist.”

“Xavier?” Elias asked, but Xavier already was pulling his laptop out of his bag and typing away furiously at the keys.

“Sending a note out to my contact to try to figure out who is behind this.” Xavier’s nose was buried in his computer and I watched in fascination as his entire face changed. Gods, he was hot when he was on a mission behind his screen.

“Please don’t do anything bad. They really helped me. If anything, you should send them more money and resources so they can get even more omegas–”

“Baby girl.” Elias placed a finger over my lips. “That’s exactly what Xavier will do. Whenever we find out about these types of organizations, we support them to the furthest extent possible.”

My heart settled back into my chest as I took a moment to breathe and let his words sink in. Not that I really thought they would try to shut down something that helped omegas, but it was just a knee jerk reaction.

“Finish eating, little one.” Simon leaned down and kissed my cheek before giving me a glass of water.

“Yes, listen to Simon.” Elias smiled, and turned to his own plate of food.

Julian looked over at Xavier and rolled his eyes. “He won’t eat now. When he’s on a mission, nothing will stop him until he’s finished.”

“Not true,” Xavier commented, not taking his gaze from his screen. “As soon as Alena is done eating and invites us into her nest, I’ll be the first one there.”

The room erupted into laughter and I couldn’t help the smile that was plastered on my face while I ate.

When we finished and the dishes were done, we enjoyed some cookies as I tried to settle down my rampant arousal. I knew they could smell it. Their gazes were intense as they regarded me. Even Xavier kept sneaking glances over his laptop screen.

Abruptly I stood, the room going deathly silent as I sucked in a harsh breath. “I’m ready for you guys to see my nest.”

Before I even finished the sentence, Xavier slammed his laptop closed and had me in his arms. He ran upstairs and into the room with my nest.

I nuzzled his neck, savoring the scent and feel of his skin. Smoky woods. Wild and untamed just like Xavier.

He set me down on my feet, and kissed me gently as the rest of the guys entered my space. I felt suddenly nervous to have them in here. What if they didn’t like my nest? Or got mad at me for the things I took from around the house?

“Don’t think right now, Princess,” Xavier murmured against my lips. “This is all as fast or as slow as you like. If you just want one of us tonight, the rest will leave, or if you allow us to stay and watch, we’d be just as happy with that.”

Somehow the thought of only one of them taking me while the others watched made my thighs clench and my mind ease.

“Mmm, I think you like that idea. Have you got a little bit of voyeur in you, Princess?” Xavier’s lips skated over my cheek before his tongue darted into my ear. “As long as it’s only us that get to see your beautiful body, we don’t have a problem with it.”

He bit my earlobe and the spark of pain was like a lightning bolt of arousal shooting down my spine.

“You love the thrill of the possibility of getting caught. Blowing me in my office. Letting us make you come in the car.” He raked his teeth down my pulse as he whispered softly. “Fuck, Princess. It turns me on so much. Makes my cock rock hard for you. One day I’ll give you my knot while I have you bent over my desk with my hand over your mouth to keep you quiet.”
