Chapter 55
Hestia
Ilook in the mirror one last time to make sure everything’s in place before texting my alphas. I hit send and toss the phone aside, hurrying to get in position.
They burst in less than a minute later.
I intended to get them up here fast, which is why I said I needed their help ASAP, but I didn’t mean for them to rush in quite so frantically.
Everyone freezes at the sight of me.
“I have one more gift for you,” I say in my best sultry voice.
My alphas quickly shift from protective to horny.
Cato circles me and says, “This is the best present yet, pet.”
The rest of them crowd closer, not touching, just looking.
“You’re so pretty, little omega,” Magnus says.
“I should have installed the cameras in here earlier,” Henri murmurs.
I’m pleased they appreciate how much effort I put into this.
It wasn’t easy to tie myself in ribbons, and it was even more difficult to fasten my wrists to the hook dangling from the ceiling, leaving me on my tiptoes.
A hook, I might add, that I had to sneakily install myself so I wouldn’t ruin the surprise.
I think the effort was worth it though. The silky red ribbons can be removed one piece at a time, leaving the rest in place. I put bows over the important parts so they can pull the ends to reveal a spicy surprise.
“Read the card first,” I say, still using my sexy voice, and gesture to the card hanging over my breast.
Charm pulls it off, and they gather around to look at it.
The silence while they read makes my nerves ratchet up, but I was going to be scared no matter how I decided to tell them. Maybe this is a silly way to do it rather than just saying it outright, but I thought this would be cute and it ensures I didn’t forget anything I wanted to say.
“Is this…are you serious?” Charm says.
“Yes,” I say.
Orion kisses me before I can get anything else out.
Cato steals me from Orion and says, “I love you too, pet.”
Between more breathless kisses, I tell my mates I love them, and they say the same.
After I’ve had a moment with each of them, Orion runs his hands up my arms and says, “I love this idea, but I think we’ll have to take her down first.”
“We can still reach some of her neck though…or we can bite her somewhere else,” Henri says, considering my exposed skin.
“You think so?” Orion asks.
It takes me too long to realize what they mean, even though it was my suggestion.
“Wait, you mean you want to do it now?” I say, shocked.
I thought they would want to wait, like until I was done with my training, or at least another week to see if Alana changes her mind and fires us.
“Is that not what you meant with this?” Magnus says, looking crestfallen.
“No! I mean yes, or, well, I thought—”
I never considered they would agree to bond right now.
“Of course we don’t have to do it tonight. We can take our time, choose a day,” Orion says.
“No, wait, I just didn’t expect you to be ready immediately since I sprang it on you.
I want you to know that I love you and would be thrilled to bond with you someday, but I figured after you read the card, the rest of the gift would just be unwrapping me.
I didn’t mean to pressure you. For tonight, we can simply have fun,” I say.
“I’ve thought about this for long enough already,” Henri says.
“We want you to join us and complete our pack,” Orion says.
“Will you have us?” Charm asks.
“Yes! Yes, I’ll bond with you,” I say, giddy like they surprised me with this, and I wasn’t the one offering.
For so long I thought I’d never settle down with a pack. That shifted when I met them until eventually, I couldn’t picture a future without my mates at my side.
I’m still smiling as Orion kisses me. It’s strange being unable to move, especially with him. I keep trying to wrap my arms around Orion, only to have the ribbons tighten against my skin. They’re a caress, a warning. I can’t do anything but let them touch me.
“Do you want to stay tied up for this?” Charm asks.
“Yes,” I say breathlessly.
“Even for bonding? We can take you down when it’s time for the bites so you’re more comfortable,” Magnus says, stroking my side.
“Stay like this,” I say, already losing my train of thought.
My only thoughts now are about how to get my teeth in my mates, mouth watering, canines aching.
My neck tingles where Magnus is staring at it.
Cato distracts me with kisses while the others get their clothes off, his sweatpants having already been tossed aside.
His kiss is wilder with his alpha at the fore. Cato brushes his lips over my jaw and down my neck, teeth scraping against me. I think he’s going to do it now, he’s going to bite me, but all he does is suck on my skin.
Their hands are everywhere, stroking, touching, pinching. I moan and surrender to them, unable to do anything else. The ribbons shift as their hands roam, and they take some off to expose more of me.
Charm kisses me, tongues tangling together. The bow over my chest comes undone, revealing the tight buds, and Orion and Henri latch on. I clutch at the ribbon holding me up, trying to adjust to the feeling of being helpless to pleasure.
Magnus’s cock brushes my spine, leaking precum as he kneads my ass. He slowly removes the bow over my cheeks and grabs my hips, thrusting against my lower back.
Cato takes off the ribbon tying my ankles together and throws my leg over his shoulder. He tears the bow off my pussy with his teeth and dives in.
Cato rubs his face against me while licking my pussy, growling in pleasure as he tastes it for the first time. His movements are erratic, trying to do everything at once, sucking and licking and flicking my clit with his tongue, and it doesn’t take me long to come from his enthusiastic eating.
He keeps going as my orgasm rolls on and on, and he laps everything up. Even when I go limp, Cato doesn’t stop.
The others have been trading my lips back and forth, and Orion steals me from Henri to ask, “You’re sure you’re ready to bond now?”
“Yes,” I gasp, eyes rolling as Cato sticks his tongue in me.
Orion kisses my lips once more and unfolds my hand to kiss my palm. The blood flows back into my fingers now that I’m no longer clutching the ribbon.
He puts his mouth around the base of my thumb and bites.
Orion’s mind floods in, a swirling river of love and strength, sharp peppermint scent winding through me. He’s like a force of nature, shaping things to his will, all in the service of protecting others. He’s calculated and intelligent, my clever mate, yet so sweet and compassionate.
I can see where he snags on things, too worried about caring for his packmates and me that occasionally it traps him. That’s where I’m happy to come in and clear his path so he can move again. I love helping him, and I love the rush when Orion allows me to take control of his strength.
And through him, I can sense his packmates, separated by a veil like talking underwater. They won’t come through clearly until they bite me themselves.
As his bond settles, Orion releases my hand and cleans the wound with his tongue.
I can still feel him there inside me, which is what I’ve craved since they first knotted me, a permanent connection.
When he kisses me, I sense his satisfaction. I smile, amused by how pleased he is with himself.
Orion offers me his neck so I can complete our bond, and I bite right across the middle of it where my mark will be the most visible.
I drop into his mind, sealing our connection. I’m not used to navigating bonds, but I do my best to show Orion how much I care for him, and all the things I love about him. He welcomes me in, surrounding me with warmth and echoing back my love.
I understand how he felt now, because I’m just as smug that I bonded this alpha and made him mine forever. Orion gave himself to me, and I’ll never let go.
I tend to his neck like he tended to my hand, my saliva healing the punctures. I feel his goosebumps as if they were my own.
When I’m done, I admire my mark. It will scar nicely, and everyone will see that Orion belongs to me. We’ll never have to hide again.
His bite on my hand will be a constant reminder of my pack, that I’m loved, that they’re always there for me.
After one last kiss, Orion moves aside, dragging away Cato too, who was languidly licking my pussy.
Charm picks me up and spears me on his cock. I gasp and tighten around him, pussy still sensitive from Cato’s tongue.
Charm doesn’t stop, lifting and dropping me down his cock, bouncing me against his knot until I come.
I sense Orion’s pleasure in response to mine, his excitement as he watches me come with his packmate.
Once my orgasm fades, Charm pauses, giving Henri a chance to join us. He covers his cock in my slick and pushes against my ass, slowly entering my other hole.
“You’re such a good omega, I can’t wait to be inside you forever,” Henri groans, face pressed against my hair.
I whimper and clench around them. I’m going to come again already if he keeps talking like that.
Henri works himself in with more praise and promises, and he and Charm find a rhythm together.
I cling to the ribbon as they fuck me, Orion’s bite rubbing against the silk. His mark feels like an erogenous zone, I’d forgotten they’re supposed to be more sensitive. With the way this feels, I might come if one of them licks my hand for long enough.
I thought Charm and Henri were going to bond me soon, but now I despair that they’re going to tease me with sex and knot me first. I’d complain, but it seems rude to be impatient, and it does feel good…
I lose myself in them, and when I come again, it’s accompanied by the flash of their minds colliding with mine.
Henri dug his teeth into the back of my neck, and Charm struck my left breast just over my heart.
Their scents weave into mine. Everyone will smell my mates on me now, no soap or suppressant can wash them off.
