Chapter 30
CHAPTER THIRTY
Kayla
There was no tired quite like the tired after being held at stapler-point and almost being yeeted off a roof by a deranged beta. I’d ended up with a mild concussion, an adrenaline crash that felt like I’d been hit by a bus, and some bruises and scrapes.
Considering the alternative was death, I think I fared well.
Brian was in jail, held without bail until his trial, and Brandie had spilled all of their secrets.
Their love affair that started online had turned into a toxic spiral of hating alphas and omegas.
She hated Omega Match because the only way for her to get out of living in the omega compound was to match with an alpha, and she’d wanted Brian, who was just a beta.
They were planning on running off together to a country that didn’t have such strict regulations for omegas and alphas, and to do that they needed more money than Brian had. They wanted to be set for life, and Brian knew sports betting was a good way to double his money.
At first, Brian had planned on Kara and the pack being matched so the pack would benefit from her heat. But then Brandie had the idea to swap us to try to bring Omega Match down.
She had hoped me or the pack would raise a big stink about it but didn’t anticipate that we wouldn’t.
Brian had gone along with Brandie’s swap plan because he hated Omega Match just as much as Brandie and he didn’t need Kara specifically. It was just easier for him to convince Beck to agree to an omega if she was perfect in every way.
Part of me really hated that I’d been right all along about Omega Match messing up. If Kara would have put them, she would have matched with them. Even though Kara reminded me “would have” was exactly what it was.
It had been almost a week since everything had happened, and each passing day I was becoming more and more like myself. There had been a lot of movie watching, video games, sleeping, and snuggling.
But no sex and definitely no bonding.
I didn’t know if they were giving me time to heal completely or if they had changed their minds with everything that had come to light. I might not have wanted a pack at first, but now I couldn’t see myself without them. The thought of being without them was eating me inside.
I needed to just rip the Band-Aid off, but sitting at the kitchen table eating dinner with the four of them just made me nervous about what might be my impending doom.
It might have also been the unbonded omega in me starting to wear down. Damn hormones.
“You didn’t eat very much,” Kane remarked as he got up from the kitchen table and started to clear it.
“Not very hungry tonight.” I’d only eaten a few bites of my lasagna and salad.
“Are you feeling all right?” Rio reached over and put the back of his hand against my forehead. “Your forehead is a little warm.”
I rolled my eyes. “I’m fine. Your hand is hot.”
Rylan stretched and then stood. “Well, I’m going to go game since I’m not on dish duty. Who wants to join me?”
Both Kane and Rio put their dishes on the counter by the sink and followed Rylan out of the kitchen, leaving me and Beck to clean up the dishes. We hadn’t had to do them all week and I guess our vacation was over.
“Bring me the rest of the stuff off the table and I’ll throw all of these in the dishwasher.” Beck headed to the sink and began rinsing and stacking dishes. “You know you can talk to us, right?”
“Hm?” I wrapped the leftover lasagna with foil and put it in the refrigerator. “I do talk to you.”
“I mean about what happened… about the pack… about everything.” He glanced over at me as he put two plates in the dishwasher.
“Oh.” I brought him the rest of the dishes from the table and started taking rinsed dishes from him to load. “I’m handling it.”
“Are you? You won’t set foot in your nest, you aren’t sleeping well even with two of us surrounding you, you-”
“Are you going to send me back?” I blurted, nearly dropping a plate.
“Kayla…” He turned off the water and dried his hands. “Why would you think that?”
I shrugged and shut the dishwasher, avoiding his stare that did things to my insides. “Just a feeling.”
He trapped me against the counter, his arms on either side of me.
I looked him straight in the eyes, even though I wanted to look at the floor and whine like a rejected little omega.
I could fight against my true nature with every ounce of effort, but at the end of the day, I was still an omega and still could only fight myself so much.
“We’ve been giving you space. You usually tell us what you want and need… is that not right?”
“On a normal day, yes.” I bit my lip and grabbed onto the front hem of his shirt. “But nothing’s been normal, and I guess... I just needed some reassurance.”
“You’re ours,” Beck growled, his fingers grasping my chin to stop me from looking away from him. “Tell me what you want. Anything, and it’s yours.”
“I want you to bite me. All of you.” God, it felt good finally saying it.
His green eyes darkened as his pupils dilated and his body vibrated with pure alpha energy, his chest puffing up a little in a show. This was it. It was going to happen.
“We’ll do it my way.” His voice sent a thrill down my spine and straight to my core.
“Yes, Alpha.” I whimpered, my perfume blossoming around us and causing him to shut his eyes and inhale deeply.
He picked me up, my legs and arms wrapping around him. He carried me so effortlessly, and I fit snug against him as he walked out of the kitchen, and through the dining room and living room. “We have a surprise for you.”
“A surprise?” I didn’t know if I was up for any crazy surprises their four brains might have concocted.
“I think you’ll like it.” He was carrying me down the hall toward the nest, and I frowned. “Trust me.”
I loved my nest, I did, but after everything, seeing it left a bitter taste in my mouth. I was sure eventually I’d use it again, but for now, I had no reason to and was perfectly content finding a quiet room in the massive house to hide under a pile of blankets when I needed.
“What did you do?” I tried to turn my head as he got to the slightly cracked open door.
“Shut your eyes.” He was back in alpha mode, his bark causing my eyes to quickly close in compliance. I could have fought him on it, but there was no need to fight anymore. I was surrendering.
Their scents enveloped me as he walked into the room, the click of the door closing us in. My skin tingled with awareness that they hadn’t gone off to play video games but had come here instead.
“We want this to be a sanctuary for you. A place that gives you comfort, and we know you’ve been avoiding it.”
What didn’t they know? I hadn’t told them my feeling about the nest, but they were observant and me burrowing in the beds upstairs instead of in my nest was probably a dead giveaway.
“Open your eyes, Kayla girl.”
I slowly opened them, gasping not at the three naked alphas lying in wait, but at the room.
Everything was different. The walls had been painted a light blue and the ceiling was now almost black with strands of twinkling lights spread across it.
The ceiling fan was replaced with a chandelier that emitted a warm glow of light.
But the best part was the actual nest. They’d replaced the thin nesting mattresses I’d previously bought with a platform low to the ground.
The nesting mattresses were thicker and covered in light blue sheets to match the walls.
Hanging from the ceiling were panels of thick dark blue fabric which was tied back for now but would enclose the nest from everything.
I wiggled out of Beck’s hold and went to a chair and ottoman that had been set up to replace the loveseat.
Folded over the ottoman was the quilt I had been working on for myself.
I brought it to my nose and inhaled, all of their scents pouring into me.
They’d finished it, and it was more perfect than I could have imagined.
Beck moved behind me, his hands going to my arms and rubbing soothingly. “Do you like it?”
I inhaled shakily and didn’t trust myself to speak, so I nodded. I set the blanket down and turned, throwing my arms around him.
“We can’t undo what happened, but we can move forward together… as a pack. We love you, Kayla, and anything you could ever need or want physically or emotionally is yours. We give ourselves to you.” Beck sounded more certain than I’d ever heard him.
I pulled back, tears threatening to spill over, so seeing him was a bit more difficult. “I love you all too.”
His lips found mine, his arms banding around me like they were never going to let me go. I could sense the others watching us, and that mixed with my emotions made my entire body come alive and my panties dampen with slick.
Beck moved to my neck, sucking on the spot where he was going to claim me with his bite. There were a lot of different ways a pack could claim an omega, but the strongest bond was made when the leader knotted the omega and the entire pack bit her one after the other and vice versa.
His hands went to my shirt and lifted it off, his eyes glued to mine. He undressed me slowly, almost painfully so, and my body trembled with need.
“Get on the bed. They’ll get you ready.” My nipples hardened to sensitive points as he steered me toward the three alphas waiting for me.
The bed was huge and could easily have fit all five of us comfortably.
Kane, Rio, and Rylan were lounged around it naked, their cocks already hard.
I crawled on, briefly appreciating that it was the perfect combination of soft and firm.
I was unsure of where to situate myself with the three of them.
“Come here, sweetheart.” Rio patted the empty spot next to him in the center of the bed.
As soon as I was where he wanted me, he pounced, flipping me and pinning me under him as he took my mouth. His cock pressed against my center, and I couldn’t stop myself from grinding against him.
His lips moved down to my neck and then to my nipple, while one of his hands cupped my other breast, his thumb brushing over my sensitive flesh over and over at the same pace as his tongue.
Rylan scooted on one side of me and Rio moved off me to give him better access. He kissed me, his hand moving between my legs. When his fingers made contact with my wet center, he groaned against my lips.
A hand circled my ankle and was replaced by lips that began kissing up my leg. I was experiencing sensory overload from the three of them lavishing me with affection.
“Spread her open for me.” Kane’s voice wrapped around me like a thick blanket.
I spread my legs for him, and Rio hooked his arm around one and pulled it open wider for Kane. Rylan ran his fingers through my folds and then used them to part my lips for Kane.
“Look at our beautiful omega, ready and waiting for us,” Beck said from the foot of the bed. He hadn’t moved from his spot but had taken off all of his clothes. “Perfect in every way and just for us.”
“The perfect treat.” Kane kissed my inner thigh and then buried his face between my legs, his purr vibrating through me as he sucked my clit between his lips.
“Yes!” I broke away from Rylan’s lips, needing to come up for air. I was at their mercy, and I didn’t want it any other way.
My orgasm built fast and someone’s fingers thrust into me, crooking in just the right way to hit that spot inside me that sent me toppling over the edge.
Rio and Rylan were taking turns kissing me, and Kane continued his assault on my pussy as I rode out my orgasm.
And then the bed dipped slightly, and Kane moved to the side, Beck finding his home between my legs. Kane moved around to the top of the bed to lie by my head, giving him access to my neck. It was a tight squeeze with all of them, but they didn’t seem to mind being so close.
“You’re ours, Kayla Sterling.” Beck thrust into me, and I cried out, my orgasm still making every nerve-ending sensitive.
“I’m yours.” I was ready for them to mark me and make me theirs. I’d been ready.
Beck slid in and out of me, going deeper and deeper with each thrust. My body tensed slightly as his knot pushed into me, swelling, and locking us together.
“Bite her, Rio,” Beck barked.
“Mine,” Rio growled before the brief sting of his bite where my shoulder met my neck made me clench around Beck, who was circling his hips in the most delicious way.
“Kane, bite her.”
Rio licked the bite he’d made and moved a bit so Kane could get to the spot he’d been itching to bite.
“Mine.” His growl was filled with emotion, and he bit me just above where Rio had, their bites slightly overlapping.
“Rylan, bite her.” Beck sounded as if he could barely contain himself. His neck muscles were straining, and his pupils were completely blown.
“Mine.” Rylan bit the opposite side of my neck, the thrill of having three bites causing another orgasm to overtake me.
As soon as Rylan lifted his face from my neck, Beck roared as if his heart was being filled so full it had burst, and he exploded inside me, his mouth descending on my neck. “Mine.” His bite overlapped with Rylan’s and nearly made me black out from the emotional punch it brought.
It was the bite that tied all their bites together as one in a bond that I could swear I felt wrapping around every part of my body and taking root in my heart.
Beck licked his mark and tilted his head to the side, offering me his neck.
I’d read about this plenty, but doing it was a completely different thing.
My body took over and I struck him like a snake, my teeth easily breaking his skin.
The smallest amount of blood hit my tongue and my body shuddered in pleasure, another strand of the bond slipping into place.
Licking the small wound so it would heal quicker, I bit the others, each one adding to the bond, their warmth and happiness pouring into me in waves. It was as if an emptiness that had been inside me all this time that I never realized was there was being filled.
As the tendrils of our bond connected us, Beck moved me so I was lying on top of him, his knot firmly in place. The others would knot me later, but for now, we lay with our bodies touching, our bond flowing through us and letting us feel each other in a different way.
They were finally mine and were the perfect pack for this knot so perfect omega who was perfect to them.
