I gasped as Sin’s gloved hand pressed against my stomach, his cock fitting perfectly into the line of my ass. His forehead dropped onto my shoulder as he moaned, rolling his hips, his aura washing over me.
It had taken a lot more bargaining to get them to agree to scent mark me like the last time. To be honest, I hadn’t actually expected them to accept. Caspian had said no outright, but both Sin and a jealous Kai considered it, before they eventually agreed, and Kai dragged Caspian along with them.
It was exactly what I needed.
I hoped nothing would annoy Zania more than to see me walking into a party held at Risler House, drenched in caramel, vanilla, and amaretto. And to show her I wasn’t backing down or booking a one-way ticket to a desert island to rot away like she wanted.
When Sin first told me the party was being hosted at their family’s private residence, I thought it meant I’d have the chance to snoop around Zania’s house to pick up some useful information.
But it turned out to be a pack house shared between four families which was owned by her, so it would be harder to find anything Zania-specific.
It was a risk to ask them, but it had paid off.
They’d snuck me into another tiny room, but at least this had a desk and chairs instead of a toilet and a sink. As if it was some kind of promotion.
Sin’s other hand wrapped around my chest, swallowing my breast, tugging at the low neckline of my dress to expose even more cleavage.
After the last time we were alone together in my nest, I should have pushed him off me to show him I hadn’t forgiven him for ruining the moment after we kissed.
But he rubbed his scent over my back and neck, and I couldn’t resist.
His soft fingers found my nipple through the cup of my bra, and I moaned as I spread my thighs. I’d go crazy if his hand crept any closer to my pussy.
I matched each roll of his hips with movements of my own, hoping he could magically sweep away my dress and grind his cock between my thighs.
Kai and Caspian both watched me in the low light that came from the lamp on the desk Caspian sat against. Their gazes were so intense it was like they were undressing me.
And I was already fantasising about Caspian tearing my clothes away so all three of them could ravish me like in my alphaporn books.
Kai specifically told his stylists not to give me any underwear, and my slick began building as soon as the three of them gathered around me on the front step.
I hoped they would find a creative way to neaten me up before we entered Zania’s party.
Kai tutted as he stepped in. “I wasn’t sure if I was seeing things when you arrived, but I guess it’s true,” he said. My breath caught as he suddenly cupped my cheek.
Even being near him was enough to send pleasure fluttering through me, and his touch sent instant sparks dancing over my skin. Along with Sin’s gentle caresses, it was almost enough to make me perfume.
My eyelids shuttered, and I sighed as I leaned into them, tilting my head back to give Kai a needy look as he pinched my chin.
He frowned as he inspected the bruise. I couldn’t tell what his expression meant, and it threw me off that I couldn’t sense our connection anymore.
“I guess your stylists couldn’t cover it up properly,” I replied with a bite.
I wanted to be angrier, to feel the same kind of rage I had when she slapped me. But Sin pressed his nose into my shoulder, and all the pain I’d been saving up trickled away as I curved into him.
I was sure he smelled the same things I did. Sin’s vanilla layering the room like a soft cloud, my brandy, and Kai’s own amaretto swirling around us. And slashing through all of that was the furious scent of burnt caramel.
“Are you going to tell us who did this to you, or are we going to have to force it out of you?” Kai asked.
“There’s nothing to tell,” I said cautiously. I wouldn’t whine about how Zania hit me when I bet all the omegas who approached them without her permission had to put up with the same thing.
From the way he narrowed his eyes, Kai already knew who it was. Maybe he wanted me to be the one to tell his alphas rather than confessing that she hit him as well.
I winced as he pressed his thumb against my left cheekbone, right where her four rings had struck the hardest.
“Soften for me,” Sin murmured against my neck, distracting me from the pain. “I want you closer.”
Kai’s jaw ticked as Sin clung to me like I’d collapse if he let me go.
Even though I was turning into a puddle at having his scent and aura cushioning me, it was the tiny breaks in Kai’s expression which kept me alert.
His gaze kept flicking between me and Sin.
After the way he’d shouted and snarled at me before I bit him, I could guess what he was thinking.
Until he suddenly grabbed my shoulder.
I gasped as he gave a sharp tug, and I stumbled forward. His face grew hard as I slammed my hands on his shoulders to stop myself from falling.
But Sin’s fingers slipped to my waist, catching me before I toppled.
“Come on, Sin. You’ve got to do more than that if you’re going to make our slut perfume,” Kai purred as his lips drew closer to mine. His harsh tone sent desire sizzling through my body, and his nostrils flared as my scent deepened.
“Or we could just give up your fucking game and go to the party?” Caspian snapped from behind him.
The second I glanced at Caspian, his whole body tightened as his energy became even more murderous.
“You’re such a spoilsport,” Kai sighed as he rolled his eyes.
“I thought Brandy wanted to go out drenched in our lovely scents?” His smile was off, his gaze too fierce.
Even when Kai’s voice was cheerful, his fingers dug into my shoulder.
“We missed our chance to show you off last time we scent marked you thanks to someone’s fucking temper tantrum.
” Kai shot a look at Caspian over his shoulder, even though he was just as bad as his alpha.
But that was my problem. Even when they snarled at me, I wanted more of them. The moment they touched me, I forgot the real reason I’d come here, because it felt so good to have their attention, whether it was cruel or kind.
Kai pulled me against his chest, my breasts squishing against him as his face brightened.
“It’s my turn,” he hummed. His smirk turned malicious as he leaned in. “Well, Brandy. Are you ready to be marked in a totally different way?” Kai said in the low tone that always made me shiver.
I whimpered, quickly biting my lip to hold back the sound, but it was too late.
“We’ll take that as a yes,” he chuckled, before he pressed against me, and I melted all over again.
Kai gripped my waist, sliding his fingers down to knock against his alpha’s.
“Sin, get your fucking hands off of her. She’s mine now.”
I couldn’t see the expression Sin made as he let go of me and backed away, but it only made Kai angrier. I hated that I didn’t have an alpha touching me when I was so horny, especially when the two right next to me were both pumping with energy.
I needed to get Caspian’s scent all over me if I was going to face Zania again. I had to find a way to make him snap.
“Why don’t you both just scent mark me and then we can go?” I asked.
Kai laughed. “No way, not a chance. We’ve still got twenty minutes until the official kick-off, and I want to make a big, grand fucking entrance by towing you in there with us so everyone can get a good eyeful at how we aren’t fucking mating with some fucking stuck-up bitch omega their parents shoved on us. ”
“What am I then?” I asked.
His lips thinned as an unreadable look crossed over his face.
We stared at each other as the air sparked around us, stretching on as I waited for his reply.
“You’re a fucking excuse. Now, shut up,” Kai growled as he wrapped his arms around me, and I easily gave in to him. His blood-red suit made him feel even more electric when paired with the cruel glint of his amber eyes.
My heart clenched, hate building inside me. But it wasn’t for them.
It was because our bond was gone, and I could barely stand it.
I could even bite him again and reconnect us.
The bond would be gone before the Selection Ceremony, and then we could properly reject each other and I could pretend they hadn’t swept through my life like a hurricane and destroyed everything I’d built for myself.
“It won’t take much this time,” Kai whispered in my ear before pulling back to speak louder. “I’m not going to give you the chance to fuck it up for us again. Today is too important for you to make a mess.”
“Kai.” Sin’s voice was filled with a warning, but Kai just hummed as he ground against me. The jewelled butterfly brooch on the lapel of his suit caught my nipple, and I cried out as his fingers dug into my shoulder.
“Sin, you can’t tell me off when you know it’s true.”
Kai’s presence drowned out my senses as I surrendered to his touch. He rubbed his cheek over the spot Sin had brushed with his nose, his hands roaming over my back like he was rubbing away Sin’s scent—even though the whole point was to cover me.
His teeth skimmed the muscle of my neck, and I instantly sucked in a breath. My stomach roiled, my heart thumping as I hoped he’d go too far.
“Kai…” My voice tremored.
I wished I could lace my fingers through his silky black hair, press him harder against me so he wouldn’t have any choice but to bite me, just like I’d done to him.
But he had two long, golden hairpins holding together his styled chignon, and he was so painfully beautiful that I didn’t want to do anything to ruin it.
My eyelids fluttered as our chests rubbed together, and the scent of his slick bloomed between us. It was as potent as mine.
His sigh danced across my skin, and I moaned as I curved my hips forward to mould into him.
I wasn’t supposed to perfume. That was the rule he set the last time we tangled. If I perfumed, he said I could never see the three of them again.
