Chapter 30
Juniper
The guys are already home by the time I pull up in my truck, Pace following me home before diverting and driving away the moment I park outside the opulent home I share with my pack.
Depositing my backpack on the couch in the living room, I kick off my shoes and stack them neatly near the door before heading to Geo’s room, only one thing on my mind. As I pass, Evron calls from the kitchen, “Hey, sweetheart. Where are you running off to in a hurry? Don’t I get a welcome home kiss before you disappear?”
Laughing, I make a U-turn and bolt toward Evron, smacking a sound kiss to his lips with enough enthusiasm that he laughs against my lips before kissing me back. His scent surrounds me in no time, oak and hazelnut comforting me in an instant, and I sag against his shirtless body with a sigh.
“Long day, Blue?” he asks as soon as we part, and I nod, dropping my chin to his chest as I peer up into his pretty, emerald eyes. He smiles down at me, gaze soft with understanding, and says, “Creek told us about the creep in the car today. How are you holding up?”
“I’ll be better if Haze or Rage find something that we can give to the police. Maybe they can figure out who that creep is,” I groan, eyes fluttering closed when Ev starts playing with my hair, taking my weight like it’s nothing as he leans against the kitchen island counter .
“Makes sense, sweetheart. You’re handling it all very well, all things considered,” he assures, kissing my forehead sweetly after I smile my appreciation. “So, where were you off to in such a hurry?”
Oh, shit, yeah. That.
Clearing my throat, I push my body away from his by only a fraction, enough to get my head on straight as I tell him, “I wanted to talk to Geo. About the whole bonding thing.”
Surprise flickers in Evron’s gaze before understanding fills his mossy-colored gaze, and he bites his lip as his eyes scan over my features. “Because he’s a beta, right?”
I nod.
“Want me to come with? Geo and I have already spoken a bunch about it, so maybe we could all have a chat so we’re on the same page?” he offers, and I can only blink in surprise at my copper-haired alpha as I try to compute his words.
“You guys have discussed it already?” I blurt, eyebrows pinched in confusion. “When did that happen?”
It’s Ev’s turn to clear his throat before he answers, a sheepish smile on his handsome face. “It was after you stayed here for that first night, when Lowie and Leylan helped you through your first heat spike. We figured we all knew where we wanted things to go, how permanent, and how certain we were of forming a pack with you. So, it was just a matter of discussing the how’s and such. Geo being a beta was something that was brought up, but how about we go up and ask him about it? I’ll bring the brownies I just finished baking.”
Bemused, I smile at the man and nod, accepting his hand as soon as he’s gathered three bowls of brownies, ice cream and caramel sauce, dragging me up the stairs and leading me directly to Geo’s room where the pounding of a heavy-bass-lined song thuds from behind the door.
“Just walk on in, sweetheart,” Ev commands, releasing my hand in order to juggle the bowls of desert he almost fumbles and drops .
Doing as I’m told, I knock before opening the door, finding Geo lying on his bed throwing a baseball up into the air before catching it, mimicking the words to the song without making a sound. Or, at least, I think he’s mimicking, because I can’t hear a fucking thing over the pounding of the bass.
When our presence isn’t instantly noticed, I make the executive decision to surprise him, opting to run and jump onto his bed. I startle him enough that the ball drops to the floor when he’s forced to catch me in its stead, shocked hazel eyes widening in alarm before they soften significantly when he realizes it’s only me that pounced on him.
With a press of a button on his cell that sits on the nightstand, the music instantly shuts off, the silence almost deafening as soon as the song cuts out. It’s only then that Geo finally speaks, “Not that I don’t welcome the intrusion, because fuck knows I’m happy to see your beautiful face, but can I ask what the occasion calls for? Can I smell brownies?”
Laughing, I rearrange myself on top of Geo, helping myself to his lap as he sits up and leans against his bed frame without an ounce of complaint at having me in his space. In fact, the big burly beta bundles me closer, his shock fading quickly to make way for happiness and satisfaction.
“Came for a chat,” I answer, gesturing to Evron who still stands in the doorway with our dessert. “Apparently, you guys had a conversation I only now thought to ponder on myself. So, we’re here to fill me in on what you discussed.”
Apparently, that’s all my beta needs before his smile grows crooked and understanding fills his eyes, and he jerks his head for Evron to enter and shut the door after himself.
Taking a seat on the end of the bed, Evron hands over our respective bowls of brownies and admits, “I told her we all spoke about bonds and such after her first night here, but there was something specific she wanted to talk to you about, given that you’re our one and only beta of the pack. ”
Geo turns his face back to me and I shrug in answer to the question in his eyes, confirming Evron’s words without uttering a single one myself.
“What do you want to know, Firecracker?” Geo asks, settling deeper against his bedframe as he rests his bowl on his chest and reaches for me to sit more fully on top of him, my legs framing his as I sit on his lap with my own bowl of dessert clutched in my hand.
With a shrug, I ignore the rosy hue my cheeks have taken, the heat warm enough to indicate that I’m already embarrassingly blushing, and hurry to say, “Munro mentioned something earlier about how betas can’t bond, and I got to wondering how that will work with us, is all. I mean, if I could bite you and form a bond, I’d do it in a heartbeat. But I guess I just wanted to know if having a bond is something you wanted, or if it was something you’re happy to live without. I guess I just want to know where your head is at on the whole thing.”
I don’t bother mentioning how he seemed a bit out of sorts this morning, instead opting to shovel a spoonful of dessert in my mouth while I wait for an answer.
Geo takes his time mulling over his words, before deciding on, “Do I want a bond with you? Absolutely, no questions asked, without a doubt. Can I have one? Not without bonding with one of the guys. The twins already share a bond with one another through their twin genetics, and will share one with you, which is enough for the two of them. Creek is usually private with his emotions, so I’ll be damned if I impose on that. The only one left is Ev-”
“And he is more than willing to offer a bond if it means you get to experience our omega like we will. It won’t be the same, apparently slightly muted, but there will be a bond there. You’ll get to feel Juno similar to how we will,” Ev finishes. “I’ve already told you I’d be willing to bite you, bro. Not romantically, of course. My wiener only has the hots for the piece of ass on your lap, but hell, if it means we all end up as a connected pack with no man left behind, I’ll bite the shit out of you. ”
Geo and I share a stunned look, though Geo looks less shocked than me, but I assume it’s because they’ve already discussed this in length already and I’m the silly goose playing catch-up.
When I catch the reluctance in Geo, I quietly ask, “You can tell me the truth, Rocky. I won’t judge, get emotional, or kick your ass. What’s stopping you from agreeing to a bond with Ev?”
Geo laughs, rolling his head along his bedframe, before he stops and looks at me. Really looks at me. His hazel eyes roam over every inch, and his eyebrows pucker before he finally confesses, “I don’t want to be an imposition. A burden. Something to regret. Bonds are irreversible, so once it’s done, it’s done. There’s no getting rid of the emotional link, and I don’t want to lump any of the guys with a link they never planned on giving.”
Before I can even conjure a response, Evron sighs from behind me before he laughs. “You’re an idiot, bro.”
Geo and I turn our glares onto him in perfect synchrony, and the copper-haired alpha holds his hands up in surrender with another chuckle. “Wow, now, now. What I mean is, think about what you’re saying. I wouldn’t have offered a bond with you if I wasn’t serious about it. That I was comfortable with it. Out of us all, you and I are the closest. I can already read you like a book without some link connecting us, bro. Having a bond won’t make much of a difference. The only thing that will change is that I can suss your moods out a little better and vice versa. On top of that, you’ll get to feel Juno, too.”
“See,” I offer softly, discarding my now empty bowl and placing it on Geo’s nightstand. “You wouldn’t be a burden, babe. You’d be a bonus link that Evron is happy to offer.”
“Certainly will,” my flirty alpha confirms easily, a seriousness in his voice that normally isn’t present. It makes me smile, and I can’t help but wink at him over my shoulder. He takes that as an invitation to sneak closer, plastering his bare front to my back as he bands his arms over my chest. Dropping his chin to my head, I feel him shrug as he says, “I’m pretty sure it was always the plan for one of us to bond with you, anyway. I vaguely remember a conversation a few years back about it, and the guys all agreed that a bond would happen, just to make us a complete unit. Not that you being unbonded would make us incomplete, but I just don’t think the others saw us as a pack without all of us forming some kind of bond. So, the choice is yours, brother. I’ll give you a bond, but only if it’s what you want.”
And with that, Evron removes his chin from my head, dipping his mouth toward my neck. His lips brush over Creek’s bond mark and I shiver, a curiosity thrumming down the thread between me and my alpha. When I send back a pulse of desire, I receive a pang of envy, humor, and love before Creek’s emotions settle, and I sigh into Evron’s touch.
That small sound must be all the confirmation Ev needs, because one moment I’m seated on Geo’s lap, and the next I’m standing next to the bed while Evron begins removing every article of clothing from my body, his touch confident and sure. My shirt disappears first, landing in a heap on the floor at the end of the bed, quickly followed by my jeans and socks.
I’m breathing hard as my body wakes up with a flood of arousal, Ev’s darkened gaze roaming over my body with a heated expression that does things for me. Really good, sexy things.
“You already smell like the best dessert I’m going to have today, Blue,” my flirty alpha comments, grinning cheekily at me as I shiver, all too aware that there’s slick already pooling between my legs and I’m so turned on that there’s no mistaking the turn my scent has taken. “How about we give Geo a show while he thinks about his options? Maybe he’ll come to a decision after the second or third orgasm I’m planning on giving you.”
I’m already nodding, beyond on-board with that plan. So much so that I whip my bra off and slide my panties to the floor with very little prompting, enjoying the way both men’s eyes darken with desire as they eye every bare inch of me. I don’t even feel the need to cover my scars, displaying them proudly before I climb into Evron’s lap and tease, “I guess it’s showtime, baby. ”
“Oh, fuck yeah,” Evron blurts, right before the sneaky bastard grabs me and flips our positions, my body falling to the bed as he sprawls me over Geo’s bed with only my legs hanging off the edge.
With very little time wasted, Evron is suddenly on his knees between my legs, hooking the backs of my knees over his shoulder moments before he buries his face between my thighs with a guttural groan of approval.
The first lick of his tongue through my folds makes me moan loudly, the wicked heat running through the slick gathered between my legs teasing more from my body. I hear the shuffle of bed sheets as Geo moves around, his quiet curse the only indication I have that he’s watching the show before him.
“Oh, fuck,” I proclaim when Ev hardens his tongue and pushes it inside my welcoming body, lapping at me like a stray kitten who’s been blessed with a saucer of milk.
Without much cognitive thought from my brain, my hand finds itself entangled in Evron’s hair, his groan growing as he licks, sucks, and nips at me with gusto, his enthusiasm momentarily rendering me brainless. I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again. How the hell did I get so lucky to have these men in my life?
It takes only a few more seconds of Evron going down on me, fucking me with his tongue and luring several obscene sounds from the back of my throat before Geo breaks, “Fine! Fuck, fine, you win. Fucking hell.”
Ev pulls away from my needy pussy the next second, and I cry out in disapproval, already on the brink of a release that snuck up on me so suddenly that I ache. He grins down at me, eyes sparkling with mischief, before he says, “You hear that, sweetheart? We win.”
“I don’t feel like I’m winning right now,” I whine, attempting to shut my legs to rub my thighs together in an attempt to ease the ache now plaguing me. Ev puts a stop to that, hands pushing my knees apart as he leans in close enough that his breath washes over my pussy, cooling the slick between my thighs. “You’ll be winning a whole lot tonight, Blue. Just you wait and see.”
And then I’m being snatched from my position on the bed, right before I find myself sprawled on my belly and Geo takes up his spot between my splayed legs. He’s already naked, his hard shaft tapping my ass as he leans in to press kisses along my throat, gently skimming over Creek’s mark. Fresh air and sea salt tickle my nose, Geo’s scent slightly fainter than the others, but no less appealing. I want to breathe him in until my lungs are full, his scent mingling deliciously with Evron’s.
“So beautiful. So responsive,” Geo whispers in my ear, and I moan into the pillow beneath my face, pushing my ass upward and rubbing myself against his cock, drawing out a grunt from him and a throaty chuckle from Ev as he stands on the side of the bed watching raptly.
“You want his cock, sweetheart? You want him to make you feel good?” Ev asks, voice laced with desire and sensuality, luring me into his web of arousal.
“Uh-huh,” I groan against the pillow, nodding rapidly as I grind a little harder against Geo, hoping he’ll catch the hint I’m throwing him and he’ll give me what I want.
Thankfully, he doesn’t leave me waiting very long. Geo leans in and kisses my neck once more as he notches himself at my entrance, sinking in slowly inch by inch until he bottoms out and my pussy is stretched snugly around his thick girth.
I only have a moment to adjust to his size, breathless with the adjustment, before I’m being manhandled once more. In a blink, I find myself sprawled on my back, Geo’s warm, broad chest cushioning me while he remains deep inside me.
Blinking rapidly, I come face to face with a grinning Evron, his cheeks flushed with arousal while his heated gaze roams over my bare body spread out for him to devour. When his eyes stop at the apex of my thighs where Geo’s cock stretches me wide, Ev bites his lip and causally asks, “Any particular spot you want to be marked, Blue?”
It takes a moment for his words to register, and I’m shaking my head, a giddy excitement bursting to life in my chest. Creek’s emotions flare to life, and I’m grinning wildly as he appears to be jealous and aroused all at once, sending me hits of his own desire before my attention is lured away by Evron and his mouth as he begins kissing my pubic bone.
“You sure, sweetheart?” Ev confirms, mischief in those words as he peers up at me with glittering, green eyes.
“I’m sure,” I rasp, right before I gasp when Geo withdraws from inside me, only to thrust back inside with a sexy grunt, his hands clamping down on my hips before he does it again. And again, until he’s fucking me slowly but deeply, stretching me and filling me, inflicting pleasure on my body with very little effort.
In a matter of seconds, I’m toeing the ledge of a climax, my breath heaving while I try to control the rapid beats of my heart. Geo’s cock is covered in slick, my perfume thick around us, overshadowing their combined scents that intertwine with mine in subtle waves.
Just before Geo sends me hurtling over the edge, Evron leans his head close to my pussy, trailing kisses over my pubic bone, to the crease of my thigh, and back up again. “Last warning, Juno. You got a preference, or can I mark you anywhere?”
“Anywhere. Fuck, Ev, just mark me already,” I cry out, moaning loudly with a particularly hard thrust from Geo that has stars bursting from behind my eyelids.
Ev grins, right before he trails more kisses over my body, right before he stops at the thick swell of the inside of my thigh. He doesn’t ask again, simply sinking his teeth into the fleshy part of my thigh hard enough to form a bond. Just as he does, Geo reaches a hand for my clit as he continues to fuck me deep and slow, circling the ball of nerves in tandem with his thrusts.
I’m soaring over the edge not a split second later, screaming out my release like a wild animal, one of my hands sinking into Evron’s hair and clutching tightly, while the other grips Geo’s arm banded beneath my breasts, my nails digging into his flesh as I ride the climax that rolls through my body like a hurricane.
It takes a moment for me to come down from such maddening highs, but when I do, I’m instantly grinning when I feel another thread connected to my heart, a bond forming rapidly within me, bringing with it elation, love, and happiness.
Blinking my eyes open, I find Evron already watching me, and my heart swells in size, filling with adoration for this man. Loving him as much as I love the others, allowing it to pour from me and down the link that now tethers us both together.
“Fuck, yeah. I could get used to that feeling, sweetheart,” he proclaims, right before he leans in to lap at my new bond mark, caring for it so it heals as prettily as Creek’s has.
Just as he’s done with me, he disappears before I hear Geo inhale sharply before blurting, “Ow, motherfucker!”
Before I know it, another thread forms, slightly fainter and tucked behind the new thread that connects me to Evron, but no less shining and bright within me. Geo shares much of the same emotion as Ev, sharing them down the lines as the bonds form and grow between us, filling spaces only meant for them in my heart.
“Holy shit, baby. I can feel you,” Geo chokes out, hold tightening on me just as his hips start moving again, fucking me at a slow and steady pace at first before he gains traction, stealing my breath as he begins to thrust in and out of me in earnest. It’s so good, so fucking good, that I succumb to the pleasure, grinding my hips with every upward thrust of his long cock, crying out every time he hits that secret spot inside of me that sparks another orgasm to life. “Fuck, you’re already close again. I can feel how much you’re loving this, baby. This is fucking heaven.”
The dirty talk paired with the bonds thrumming with life inside me sends me over the edge again, my moans stretching out loudly while I fall headfirst into another release, dragging Geo over the edge with me .
With a sexy groan, Geo pumps once, twice, three more times before he buries himself as deep as he can go and groans loudly as he spills thick jets of come inside me.
“That’s the hottest shit I’ve ever seen,” Ev rasps, leaning in to lick at my bond, forcing my still-pulsing pussy to clench around Geo, making him grunt with his jerky movements as he fills me to bursting.
I don’t have a chance to come down from the high before Evron has me on all fours before him, already settling between my wet thighs with his engorged cock dragging through the mess between my legs. “Think you can take some more, sweetheart? I want nothing more than to sink my knot in you and keep you trapped against me for however long it takes for you to unlock that sweet pussy.”
“Oh, fuck, yes. Please,” I pant greedily, making both men chuckle, setting butterflies off in my belly and luring more slick to my center.
In one swift movement, Evron is sinking deep inside me, and he wastes no time setting a fast and furious pace that has me moaning like a fucking porn star, all while Geo sprawls out beside me, sinking his hand between my thighs as he begins playing with my clit like it’s his new favorite toy.
With Geo circling my clit with the perfect amount of pressure, and Evron pounding into me with deep strokes that sets me on fire from the inside out, it takes very little to no time at all before my pussy is spasming around Ev’s cock when another orgasm ripples through me. It’s so intense that I can’t even be sure if I’m moaning or sobbing, pleasure filling me from head to toe, so much so that Evro’s hips stutter while he and Geo both groan.
“That’s it, sweetheart. Milk my cock, take it just like that,” Ev croons, voice rasped and coated with arousal, just as he grips my hips and tugs me higher, hitting a deeper spot that sends me reeling into another climax that steals my breath and finally drags Ev over with me .
Sinking deep enough that his swollen knot teases my sensitive entrance, Ev’s hard cock stutters before he pulses through his own release, spilling come inside me right before he sinks that little bit more inside me and latches his knot to my pussy with a sexy little grunt.
Together, the three of us lay in Geo’s bed, breathing hard and trembling with our climaxes. And through it all, we’re each grinning madly as we explore our joined emotions, finding nothing but love and adoration through every line.
“You’ve done it now, sweetheart,” Ev warns breathlessly, grinding his knot inside me and setting off fireworks inside my body. “There’s no getting rid of us ever again.”
“You’re officially ours now, baby,” Geo confirms, leaning in to press wet kisses over my bare shoulder and arm.
My pussy clenches around Ev, making him grunt, and I grin when I say, “Wouldn’t have it any other way. I love you guys.”
“We fucking love you, baby,” Geo reciprocates for them both, and despite the overwhelming rush of emotion being funneled to me through the new bonds, I’m grinning from ear to ear when I feel that love matching my own for them.
It’s safe to say we spend the rest of the night locked away in Geo’s room, learning each other in all manner of ways while we relish in the new bonds that bind us together for the rest of our lives.
