Page 42 of Winter's Heat


Font Size:  

Kai and his brothers were with me at every moment during my heat. They took care of me, showering me with indescribable pleasure. Heat floods my cheeks as I think back on the times I had hot, sweaty sex with them. My hormones drove me so horny sometimes, I needed them to take me at the same time.

A weird noise escapes me as I press a pillow to my face. My heat made me beg them for sex and each time, they obliged.

Now that the haze of heat and lust has lifted off me, I feel a wave of embarrassment coming over me. How could I do that with three alphas I barely knew anything about?

Despite the awkwardness I’m starting to feel, I can’t deny the warm tingly sensation in my belly. Jacob and his brothers have been so incredibly nice to me over the past week that I’ve helplessly fallen for them all.

Now that my heat is over, I wonder what they’ll do with me. Should I continue to let them believe I’m a hooker and just hide in this big mansion with them? Or do I tell them the truth and ask them to help me?

A soft knock sounds at the door. “Winter?” Kai’s voice whispers from outside.

“I’m up,” I call out to him.

The door opens and the next moment, Kai steps in, looking breathtakingly handsome in a pair of loose slacks and a buttoned-up shirt. His hair strands turn a deep auburn as he comes to stand under a shaft of sunlight.

“I’m glad you’re up,” he says with a warm look in his soft brown eyes. “How’re you feeling today?”

“My body aches but in a good way,” I say, suppressing a yawn. “I think my heat is finally over.”

Kai steps closer and sits down on the edge of the bed. Reaching out, he pushes back a thick strand of hair and takes a closer look at me. A sigh escapes him as he leans in to press his forehead against mine.

Warmth flares in my chest at the intimate gesture. I might be lying to him and his brothers, but my feelings for them are true. They make me feel so safe and protected that I don’t even want to think about leaving them.

“How about you come down with me?” he says, unaware of the storm raging inside me. “Jacob’s making us some late lunch. Why don’t you join us?”

“Is it okay if I take a shower first?”

Kai and his brothers wiped me every chance they got but I need a proper shower to remove the dry, sticky patches of cum in my hair and between my thighs.

“Sure, you can take your time.” He gets to his feet and grins. “We’ll wait for you downstairs.” Stealing a kiss on my cheek, he crosses the room and walks out of the door.

A stupid smile is etched on my face as I watch him walk away. Giving myself a shake, I climb out of bed and move toward one of the windows.

Even though I’ve been in this room for almost a week, I never got the chance to look out of the windows. Taking a deep breath, I slide the curtain and look out at the snowy hills in the distance.

The grounds and the valleys surrounding the manor are quite bare at the moment but when spring arrives, everything would be layered with shades of green. A deep desire to see the sight flares inside me.

Don’t think about the future right now, I tell myself, stepping away from the window.Just do one thing at a time until you figure out what to do next.

I walk inside the bathroom and shed off the long shirt I’d been wearing in bed. With a fleeting glance at the mirror, I enter the glass-walled shower stall.

A moan escapes me the moment jets of hot, steamy water cascade down on me. The heat soaks into my skin and penetrates deeper into my muscles, relaxing them. My aches begin to fade, bringing me so much relief, I find myself smiling from a simple shower.

I grab the soap and shampoo next. The smell of pine and lemon makes me recall the scent I usually catch on Jacob’s clothes. My cheeks warm with pleasure as I lather up the gel and dig my fingers into my tangled strands to clean them.

It’s a while before I feel fully fresh and clean. Soaking from head to foot, I step out of the shower stall and grab a man’s robe that’s hanging from a hook.

I move toward the mirror in the corner and take a long look at myself.

I’d expected to look like shit after not caring for myself over the past week but to my surprise, my face glows with health. Memories of the times when Jacob and Cole fed me come back to me.

We’d all been affected by my perfume but they never forgot to take care of me. They acted like my mates during that time, keeping me safe and protected from the cruel world that wanted to hurt me.

I clutch my chest, feeling the rapid beating of my heart. Would I ever be able to leave them behind? “Just get dressed,” I tell my reflection. “Don’t think of the future just yet.”

Taking a deep breath, I start drying my hair.

When I’m done, I walk back inside the room and look for something to wear.
