Chapter Twenty-Seven
Evan
I extracted myself from the bodies and blankets in Wes’ bed.
It was early, but I wanted to see everyone before they went hiking.
I’d taken another knot–and had Grace’s sweet pussy–sometime during the night.
While I loved Wes’ knot, taking it while I was inside Grace brought it to a whole different level.
Grace mumbled, and I kissed her temple. She curled into Wes, who didn’t move. I covered them both with a blanket, pulled on a pair of sweats, and went down the backstairs into the kitchen.
Brennan was making coffee. I came up behind him and kissed him.
He kissed me back and made a face. “You need a shower.”
“Don’t you like peaches in your lemonade?” I teased, liking to see my alpha squirm. “I wanted to see you before you went hiking.”
“Oh, I figured you’d be tired after last night.” He poured himself a cup of coffee.
But I got a look at his face before he turned.
“It bothers you. I… I’m sorry. I should have discussed it more with you.” That was something I hadn’t expected. I assumed he’d be okay with me fucking Grace, since I’d been talking about it for days and he said nothing against it.
Jett joined us, dressed for hiking, and, grabbing my waist, gave me a toe-curling kiss.
“What was that for?” I asked, enjoying it very much.
“That aphrodisiac you pumped through the bond all night, Baby. While my husband is always amazing, last night was incredible.” Jett grinned and then stole a kiss from Brennan.
While I would soothe my alpha, I wanted to tease him a little more first. I didn’t just want Grace with me and Wes, I wanted her in this pack. That meant Brennan needed to get used to her. Maybe even like her.
Or fuck her.
Each of my guys gave me something different.
They could do the same for her. Spencer could take her to fine restaurants and science shit, then swat her ass while she called him Daddy.
She could cling to Brennan’s back as they went for a long motorcycle ride, then he, Jett, and I could have her in the swing.
Jett could teach her to box and they could make spicy food together.
Mmmm. She liked two dicks, how would she like three?
When she joined in during my heat, she could have four. I was getting some of that when my heat came.
“You know, I’m not sure what I liked better, taking Wes’ knot while I fucked Grace, or watching her take his knot as she sucked my dick.” I grinned at Jett.
Brennan growled.
I wrapped my arms around him and purred, soothing him, sending love through our bond. “Hey, don’t be jealous, Handsome. There’s enough of me for everyone. My getting some pussy doesn’t make me love you any less. Promise.”
The tension in his back went down a notch.
“Do you really not want me to fuck her? You said nothing before. Does me actually doing so change things? It’s fine if it does, I just need you to talk to me.” I enjoyed being with Grace. But Brennan meant a lot to me, and sometimes feelings changed.
Also, he was the head alpha, the leader of the family. Brennan’s opinion mattered. His attitude set the tone for the whole pack. I wanted him to like her.
Jett wrapped his arms around us, and I soaked them up.
“I’m just worried about you getting hurt,” Brennan admitted.
“Um, I’m not sure Grace is into that.” I shrugged.
“Don’t come to bed smelling like her,” he warned.
“Thank you, Alpha.” I stole another kiss. I could do that. Or not.
“This is why I live at school.” Riley rolled her eyes. She was dressed in a hoodie and cargo pants, hiking boots in her hand. “Can we all have dinner together again? Last night was fun.” She dropped the boots by the rack, then opened the fridge and rummaged for the juice.
“We’re not having a family dinner tonight,” Brennan snapped.
Her face fell as she nearly dropped the juice. “Because I’m not family?”
“No, Ri.” Brennan let go of me and rushed over to her. “Shit, no.” He wrapped her in his arms, coating her in that head alpha energy. “While you annoy the fuck out of me sometimes, this is your pack, your family, and I hope that you don’t feel for one second like you’re not.”
Their relationship was cute. Sure, Riley annoyed him, but so did the other sisters. Slowly, he was getting used to her being around. He’d even gotten her a dirt bike and learned to play her favorite video game.
“Stop smothering me, you fucking alpha,” she retorted. But there was love in her voice, and she didn’t squirm. She needed it too. Approval. Care. Acceptance. Love.
Brennan let go of her but put a hand on her shoulder. “You’re part of this pack, Ri, promise.”
“It’s Grace, then. You don’t like her.” Riley’s eyebrows rose.
“I don’t trust her. While she might be Wes’ mate, she’s not part of this pack.”
Oh, I didn’t like that statement at all.
“How long does memory loss last anyway? She should remember more.” He grimaced.
“She does, every day, but a lot of it is about Wes,” I shrugged. “Concussions can cause memory loss. Also, she was given some version of Oxotipoline. The combo can be brutal.”
Jett whistled. “Fuck.”
“Give her a chance,” I pleaded. “You don’t have to fuck her, just get to know her.”
“Yeah, not fucking her,” he snorted.
Yet.
“She’s not ready for you.” I shook my head. Maybe one day, but not now.
“Ugh.” Riley made a face as she poured herself some juice. “Stop talking and feed me, you assholes.”
“Fine,” Jett laughed. “I’ll make some pancakes.”
Brennan, Jett, and Riley had left to go hiking. Wes and Grace were still sleeping. Spencer went to play tennis at his club.
I was in my suite, working. I’d read the most recent updates on Rose’s case. Her mom had confessed to having a doctor drug Rose, but was begging to be tried here, instead of being remanded to her local court.
The police had called the local Centers and Rose’s mom hadn’t tried to bring her there. It looked like that was the truth–she’d brought Rose here to have a larger group of alphas to choose from.
Now I was confirming and preparing for my visits this week. These were all routine. When I took Rose to Finchley, I’d also meet with my ‘school babies.’ There was enough in the budget to have an activity so they could all meet Rose. Maybe pizza and a movie in one of the lounges?
Wes came in, dressed, hair wet. “Spencer called. I’ve got to go into work for a little bit. Will you hang out with Grace?”
“Sure. Love you.” I kissed him. “Text me later. She’s still asleep?”
“I think she’s going to take a shower. Love you.” He pulled me to him.
Kissing me again, he left, and I went to find Grace.
“Grace, are you in there?” I asked, knocking on the open door of her room.
“Hi.” Her voice came from someplace.
“Can I come in?” I called.
“Sure.”
I went into her room and saw her looking through the dresser drawers. Wearing my T-shirt.
Ooh, I liked that. So sexy.
“Thank you. It was you who bought me clothes, right? Well, you and Ri?” Grace held up a crop top.
“Yes. Jett helped. How do you feel?”
“I… I’m a little sore.” Her head ducked with embarrassment.
“I’d think so. You took two knots yesterday, you also had my dick twice. ” I came up behind her and wrapped my arms around her.
Grace tipped her head up. “Mmmm, I can’t wait to be the filling tonight.”
“I love your sense of adventure, but your ass is not ready for my cock.” I kissed her, happy she was so enthusiastic. “Do you want me to make you a bubble bath?”
Considering she still smelled of sex, she hadn’t had that shower yet. What was her favorite scent? Probably peach.
She nodded. “I’d like that.”
“I’ll get it started.” I gave her another kiss and went into my bathroom. It featured a giant, raised soaking tub that could easily fit three. The shower was also large, with glass doors and several showerheads.
Starting the water, I added some bubble bath, and got out a green bath fizzy that would help ease her sore pussy.
I lit a few candles and got out some clean and fluffy towels for her and put them on the towel-warmer. Maybe I should clear out a drawer in case she wanted to keep things in here. I’d put things for her in Wes’ bathroom, but mine was nicer, with things like towel-warmers and good lighting.
Yeah, I’d do that. As the bath filled, I cleaned out a drawer and a corner of the sink. I found a small tray and a basket and put them on the sink so she’d have a place to put things.
When I came back into her room, she was sitting in the window seat, wrapped in a blanket.
“I’m still amazed at how wonderful this room is. You thought of everything,” she told me.
I came closer to her. “Feel free to change everything around. Pile pillows wherever. Move the furniture. Be comfortable. Let me know what else you need or want. This is yours. ” I held out a hand to her. “Bath time, then food. Maybe after that we can watch one of my favorite movies.”
Since she didn’t know any of them, seeing her reaction would be fun.
She put her hand in mine and gave it a squeeze. “Let’s take that bath.”
Let’s? My dick danced at the thought. I’d finish my work later.
I let her lead me into my bathroom, the tub almost full of water and bubbles.
“The corner of the sink with the tray and basket and the drawer under are for you in case you want to keep things in here,” I told her. “Given I have a bathtub, I don’t mind if you use my bathroom.”
Standing on her tip-toes she pulled me down to her and kissed me. “Thank you.” She looked at the bath. “That looks amazing.”
I unwrapped the bath bomb and tossed it in. “That’s going to make you feel better.”
She took off her T-shirt and put it on the counter, then climbed in. Bliss coated her face. “This feels amazing, but I need my tub pillow.”
“Your tub pillow is coming.” Stripping off my pants, I put them next to her shirt and turned out the light. The candles cast a soft glow, making her look like an ethereal sea creature.
I switched on the jets, then climbed in behind her, the warm water soothing as she leaned into me.
A happy noise escaped her lips as my arms wrapped around her and she snuggled into me.
Oh, this was nice. I could see us doing this a lot. Just the two of us and the water. I kissed the top of her head.
Yes, this was perfect, and I wanted a lifetime of this.
