EPILOGUE
FOUR YEARS LATER
Felix laughs with abandon, his head thrown back and tears brimming in the corners of his eyes.
“Come on, it’s not that funny,” Gabriel growls, wrapping his arms around our Omega’s waist. “We can share.” He kisses down Felix’s neck, leaving bright purple lip prints in his wake.
“It does not look like you were putting her down for a nap,” I chastise, grabbing the end of a pink feather boa that our Alpha has wrapped around his neck. “It looks an awful lot like you had a tea party.”
“She’s asleep now!” Gabriel insists. “How was I supposed to tell her no?”
Our daughter, Mabel, is two, and she has both of her daddies wrapped around her tiny fingers.
“You’re the grown-up,” I remind him.
“Yeah, Alpha, be the grown-up,” Felix teases.
Gabriel sweeps our Omega off his feet and carries him into the nest. Right before Mabel was born, we moved into a larger home on the edge of Copper Hill that has a nesting suite all its own. No more traipsing through a bedroom to get to it.
Having a toddler is exhausting, and she still wakes up in the middle of the night sometimes, so we don’t get the time to be in the nest together as much as we want right now.
We make it a priority to spend quality time together when she naps and first falls asleep in the evenings.
It would be easy to lose ourselves in our phones or the television, but we made the promise right before Felix gave birth that we’d always make time for each other, and we have held to that.
My boys clean the lipstick off of themselves, and then Gabriel throws himself onto the nest. He stretches out, purring as he sinks into the plush mattress that takes up most of the room.
I can tell that Felix is plotting something. He doesn’t join Gabriel on the mattress, instead looking between the two of us in a highly suspicious manner.
“What are you planning, Omega?” I ask, stepping closer to him. “You look like you have a secret.” Felix may be my Omega, but he was my best friend first, and I can always tell when he’s hiding something.
“Go lie down with Gabriel and close your eyes,” he tells me, pushing on my lower back. “I have a surprise for you both.”
Gabriel leans up enough to wrap his arms around my waist and yank me down. He covers my eyes with his big hand, and I hear Felix chuckle as he leaves the room.
“What do you think he has planned?” Gabriel whispers in my ear. “Do you think he pierced his nipples this time?”
About six months after we bonded, Felix came home and said he had a surprise for us. When he stripped down, he showed off a dainty gold hoop in his belly button. I adore the way it looks, especially when he wears a crop top and I can see it peek out and glint a bit in the sunlight.
“I hope so.”
“It’s not my nipples.” Our Omega laughs and taps the bottom of my foot with his toe. “You can look now.”
When Gabriel drops his hand, my mouth dries up.
“Holy shit,” the Alpha whispers. “Get the fuck over here, right now.”
Felix takes a couple of steps back, a mischievous grin on his face. “No, no, look but don’t touch,” he says, as if that will stop either of us.
Our Omega has decided to tease us with a gorgeous mesh lingerie set. The skirt goes to the ground and splits all the way up on both sides, revealing a tiny pair of black lace panties. The top is a cage with thin straps that wrap around his torso in an intricate pattern.
He’s gorgeous, and so focused on keeping Gabriel at a distance that I catch him off guard when I wrap my hands around his waist and pull him down on top of me.
“You look so hot,” I tell him, pressing our lips together. “God, where did you find this?”
“Hazel took me shopping,” he admits, cheeks turning red. “I felt weird buying it around her, but I couldn’t resist.”
“I’m glad you didn’t,” Gabriel growls, moving to sandwich our Omega between us. He drags his hands up Felix’s sides, groaning before he circles his hand around his waist and cups his cock. “You look delicious.”
Felix glows under the attention, his cheeks flushing pink. I pull him closer to me, unable to resist touching him as I kiss up the curve of his neck and run my hands across his chest, flicking his nipples as I go.
Gabriel presses Felix flat against me as he kneels behind our Omega, rubbing his cock along the lace that covers his ass, and I feel my body tightening with arousal. Felix is already slick and soaking through the skimpy panties, leaving a spot on the front of my leggings.
“We don’t have long,” he says, panting as Gabriel slips a few fingers under the lace. “No telling how long she’ll nap.”
“We have time,” our Alpha purrs. “I always have time to take care of my loves.”
As we become a tangle of lips and limbs, my whole body warms with happiness. It’s wild that a few years ago, I was resigning myself to walking away from my Alpha and burying the feelings I have for my Omega down deep. I was going to miss out on all of this.
This beautiful, wonderful life spent with my Alpha and Omega.
Some Betas probably worry about being pushed aside by their Alpha in favor of their Omega, but I’ve never felt like I was. Not once in the past four years have I felt neglected.
We’re a team, and when one of us trips, the other two are there to pick them up.
Not every day has been easy, but they’ve all been worth it.
I hope you enjoyed Felix, Gabriel, and Clara’s story!
