ARYA

Shit,I thought the second that Spike left me and Liam alone in the little headquarters room where we were going to be expected to wait this out until something happened. Something because none of us could predict what way this was going to go. It wouldn’t be good though, that much I was sure of. Whoever this asshole Victor was, he was trouble.

“Do you think that Spike will be okay?” I asked Liam.

Right now he was going to have to deal with me, even if he didn’t like me, because he was the only person that I had here with me. Spike wasout therefacing Victor, and Brock and Mickey were likely with the others keeping them safe. I would have felt guilty that I had Liam protecting me, all to myself, if I wasn’t watching the endless security footage. This was Liam’s job today. I just happened to be here.

“Spike knows Victor better than any of us,” Liam replied pragmatically. “If there is anyone who can stop this bomb from going off, it’s him. Spike is great at negotiations and defusing situations, which helped us a lot when we were in the army. Oh, and he’s the strongest wolf that I have ever met, nothing can go wrong here.”

I swallowed hard. That didn’t make me feel amazing. I was so afraid that something was going to happen to Spike that I could hardly contain myself.

“Right, yes. Okay, well, I will just…wait then.”

I ran my eyes all over the cameras, nerves zig-zagging through me as I saw all the people I knew and loved scattered across the screens. Sarah was with a bunch of other actors, whispering nervously to one another. They all were relying on one another, trying their best to keep alive. My heart thundered in my chest as I watched them panic.

Then I spotted Carrie. She was with other crew members under a table. A tear wanted to leak out of my eye, but I couldn’t let it out. I had to remain strong because I was possibly in a position that I could do something to help out. If I could save anyone then I would. That was what I came here for, wasn’t it?

“We are going to make sure that they are alright,” Liam whispered to me, seemingly in touch with my emotions. “You don’t need to worry.”

“Easier said than done,” I shot back wryly.

“I know, I know. I don’t like being stuck back here either. It feels really off, doesn’t it? But this is what Spike wants us to do. We have to respect his plan.”

As Liam’s eyes locked in on mine, I found myself drawn in by him, grateful that I wasn’t the only one stuck in this pit of despair. The quicksand didn’t drag me under as fast as it was before when we were looking at one another. My lips even managed to turn up into something resembling a smile. Who knew that was even possible in this state?

“You know that we will do anything to protect you, don’t you?” he said in a sweet soft tone of voice which made my heart flutter. Holy shit, this was our first real conversation and he was giving me butterflies. This was what half thrilled and half terrified me when I thought about Liam in the past. I wasn’t sure totally what it was, but IknewI would end up attracted to him as well. I knew that I would overcomplicate things further by liking another man.

Just what I needed in this terrifying messy situation, but I couldn’t control it. I didn’t have the power to do anything but move a little closer to him. I needed his strength, his warmth, I ached to feel what it was like to have Liam hold me…

His eyes locked in on mine. There was something intense burning in his gaze. It seemed like he wanted it too. He wanted to hold me as well. This was madness, especially when we were in the middle of something horrible, but we were so drawn to one another that we couldn’t resist.

I was starting to realize something important. Something absolutely massive, it changed absolutely everything, even the utter fabric of my being. Because there was something to the fated mates story that Sarah had told me. I did feel it. I really felt it.

There was a reason that the sensation wasn’t as strong with each of the guys in turn, it was because I needed all of them. I had that bond with all four of them as a pack. The polyamory, reverse harem thing wasn’t just something that I wanted. It was something I needed.

No one would believe this of me, because this wasn’t like me at all, but I couldn’t help my desires, could I? If I couldn’t resist the idea of being with all of them then what could I do? Of course there was a chance that the men wouldn’t want that, but that wasn’t exactly filling my mind at the moment. Instead I was focused on Liam’s soft lips and the way that he was too shy to speak to me because he liked me so much. I could see that now. It was so obvious I wasn’t sure how I’d missed it beforehand. But I was also thinking of the way that Mickey’s body totally reacted to me when I touched him, and that me and him could have easily ended up having sex if we’d not been so terrified of the bomb. Nothing had actually happened between us, but I just knew that it would be explosive if the time came.

Then there was Brock and the loving way that he looked at me. He really did seem to see me in ways that I was never expecting. I felt beautiful around him, like I could walk on air for the rest of my life. I just knew that he would take care of me forever.

Of course Spike had quickly gotten into my heart and made my life feel complete. I knew it the moment I laid eyes on him that he wasn’t going to be just a fling, that he was something more, something different. I was at a crossroads in my life, and this was the path that I wanted to go down. I wanted to end up in a place with these four men, wherever that might be. It wasn’t the happy ever after I thought I would end up with, but that felt perfect for me.

A part of me wanted to communicate that with Liam, to see what he thought of it all. I didn’t know him very well, but I had the sense that his advice would be carefully considered and accurate. But I couldn’t even begin to get a word out of my mouth as I got nearer to Liam. Something overtook me completely, and left me speechless.

I took his cheeks in my hands and leaned in, lightly brushing my lips against his. Neither of us were looking at the screen anymore, which I was sure wasn’t great for the drama surrounding us, but we couldn’t seem to help ourselves. Without me even knowing it, a chemistry had been burning between us for a very long time, and we hadn’t even touched one another yet.

“Arya, I…I…” I wanted him to tell me whatever it was he wanted to say. I absolutely needed to hear him, but I also couldn’t hold back any longer. I needed to taste him, and that overwhelmed me completely. I cascaded my lips to him and finally got what I needed.

Fuck, and it was incredible, phenomenal. The sensation of Liam’s mouth on my own was so intense that I could hardly stand it. My stomach erupted in pleasure, I craved more, which was why I straddled him and I sat down. I made sure that I pressed all of myself against him, grinding back and forth as the kiss intensified. The passion was really blooming now, it was like a fire cracker being let off. He was hard as a rock, and I was soaking wet with desire. Much as the world was coming to an end around us, we couldn’t get enough of one another. It was almost as if the pressure of this, the knowledge that everything was slipping away from us, made us more desperate for one another.

The animal inside of Liam unleashed as well. I could almost feel it happening. His wolf shone free, and he touched me everywhere, exploring my breasts, my peaks, my valleys, the most sensitive parts of me.

“Oh, Liam,” I gasped as his fingers stroked my panties. He wasn’t quite touching where I needed him to, but it was enough. Enough to ignite the flames of fire within the pit of my stomach. I tossed my head back and let my hair go flying down my back as he grazed the lace over my clit, winding me up, riling me up until I couldn’t take it for another second longer. “Liam, I need you,” I cried out. “I want you, I need you. Fuck me, please.”

He didn’t give me exactly what I was asking for, but he did tug my panties to the side to bury his fingers within me. I let out a little scream of pleasure, grateful to have something else to focus on––anything else other than the danger surrounding us.

With trembling fingers, I yanked at his zipper until finally his trousers burst free. Then I eagerly dipped my hand into his underwear to feel the hardest part of him that was absolutely screaming for me. Liam moaned with delight between my lips as I stroked him gently.
