Chapter 20

I tug Declan’s jacket around me a little tighter, loving being wrapped in his scent as we step out of the restaurant. A shiver runs down my spine as the cool night air hits me, Declan tugging me into his side with a kiss to my head.
Dinner with Dad was everything—awkward at first, but his effort to reconnect, his pride in our graduation, and even his official acceptance of Declan as my Alpha made my heart soar.
We’ve only just said goodbye, Dad’s hug lingering as he promised to call more often, and now I’m sliding onto the back of Declan’s bike, my graduation gown swapped for jeans and a hoodie, my vanilla cupcake scent mingling with his pine.
I’m happy and hungry for whatever’s next, the heat in the pit of my belly making me squirm.
I wrap my arms around his waist, burying my head between his shoulder blades as he takes off.
Fifteen minutes into the drive, I realize we’re not heading back to the dorms. I don’t even get to ask until he’s pulling up to a small cottage, all ivy-covered walls and glowing windows, like something out of a fairy tale.
Declan helps me off and then he slides off his bike as well before leaning back against it. “I didn’t want to end the night just yet so I thought I’d show you your graduation present.”
“A surprise? I should be giving you a surprise, Mr. Champion. You’re the one who won the StarPulse tournament.” My heat is dangerously close, this present making me want to submit to my Omega instincts and fully melt against my Alpha.
He just chuckles, drawing me against his chest and into a soft kiss.
A garbled whine tears from my throat as I cling to him, chasing his lips but he shakes his head.
“Not until I give you your present, pretty boy. We won because I had you at my side, in my thoughts, and in my bed.” He kisses me again, slowly this time, one of his hands moving down to grab my ass and grind me against him.
The full length of his cock presses into my belly, slick coating my briefs until it’s soaking through my pants. “Please,” I whimper, my ass desperately needing to be filled. “Alpha, I can’t… please.”
“I got you, pretty boy. I thought that it might be a little more fun to spend your heat in a place you can actually spread out. I rented this place for us, something a bit cozier.”
“It’s almost like you love me or something,” I tease, batting my lashes as he cups my cheeks in his hands, his nose brushing against mine.
“Yeah, I do,” he purrs. “I’m glad you won me in that winter auction.
Could you imagine if it was Sienna?” He shudders dramatically, and I groan, swatting his chest, my giggles filling the night air.
“But there’s only one Omega for me.” Declan hums as he gathers me up in his arms, my legs kicking in the air when he starts toward the cottage.
“I want to carry my Omega across the threshold.”
“Yours?”
“Yeah, pretty boy. Mine. And I’m yours too.”
Wanna catch Milo and his brother, Quentin, in their own book? Check out Knot So Forbidden! Milo wants to submit. Quentin wants control. And the Alpha they’ve got eyes on? Well, she’s going to surprise them.
She’s supposed to be off limits.
After all, she’s our football coach’s daughter.
But tonight, she’s one of the Alphas being auctioned off for Fab Feb.
And we want her.
The Vark twins.
Well, I want her on her knees.
And my brother wants to be beneath her.
It’s only one night. How bad could it be?
