Chapter 35
CHAPTER 35
CLOVER
I ’m so warm and sleepy.
It feels sort of nice to be in this hazy sweet feeling. My body is buried in Apollo’s hoodie. It’s the only way that I can get his scent and I’ll take whatever I can get. I didn’t expect to feel him not close, but I do. It feels like something is missing inside of me.
I miss him.
“Can we call Apollo?”
“No, little Omega. Where is your phone?” Mickey is coming closer to me. He’s being so gentle with me right now and I like that too.
I like being treated gently. I like the way that he is stroking my shins as he kneels in front of me. The way his scent is bubbly and fizzy in my nose. It makes me smile as I reach for him with eager hands.
His beard is always cropped short against his face. I like how it covers him heavier than a five o’clock shadow. I like how it darkens his face and feels rough against me when we kiss.
We should be kissing!
I lean in and Mick gives me a soft peck before pulling back. That isn’t what I wanted. I wanted more kisses. Heavy kisses. Kisses with his tongue tasting my mouth. Kisses between my thighs.
“Yes.”
“Yes what, cherry girl?” Vaughn’s voice is next to me and I’m so happy that he sat next to me on the couch.
My body leans into the warmth of Vaughn’s body. He smells so dang good. My nose buries into his chest as I climb into his lap without thinking about it. Just needing to be closer to the Alpha.
His arms wrap around me, hugging me close to him as I get to breathe him in.
“Found her phone.” I hear Mick, but I don’t care about what he is talking about right now.
I do care about how- wait .
Where is Griffin?
Wasn’t he in the room a minute ago? Sitting up, I look around and pout not seeing him here. He is supposed to be here with me.
“What’s wrong? Your scent is changing as you get upset.” Vaughn strokes my shoulders and backs. He is trying to keep my calm, but I want Griffin here too. Need the other Alpha to be close by.
I know that Apollo is off on his road trip. We talked about it and he needs to be away for his job. But Griffin should be here.
The door opens and there he is, in all his glory.
He really is pretty to look at.
Griffin pushes his hair from his face. He looks so good in the light blue button down and charcoal colored suit he had worn to the game. He would look even better naked. Maybe with his cock all wet from my spit.
“ALPHA!” I’m launching myself out of Vaughn’s lap, rushing over to where Griffin is standing. He doesn’t even get to lift his arms before I’m leaping up, wrapping myself around his body as I nuzzle against him. “Missed you.”
Hands grip my ass, pushing me up, and holding me against his body as he walks towards where everyone else is sitting. It’s nice to be in his arms. To have most of the pack near me. It eases some of the discomfort that I’m feeling.
Griffin nuzzles my head, his scent wafting over me as he marks me in a constant motion that is meant to calm me down. .
That is very nice. I like his scent so much.
“Do you want to be in your nest or your bed, my lucky Clover?”
He didn’t call me his weed. I like being his. I like how he called me his a lot.
“Nest, my Griffin.” He chuckles, the sound moving through me as he holds me.
I’m being laid in the bedding of my nest, whining at the way that it feels when he is putting me down. I want to be held still, with a body pressed against mine. I want to be cuddled and treated sweetly.
All the softness, please .
I don’t even care that I’m being needy. I should care. It feels too nice. Mama Joy also said Alpha’s like taking care of Omega’s. It feels as good to them as it does for an Omega. So I’m not being selfish. We all will enjoy it.
“Just getting undressed, Clover. Give us one second and we’ll be in the nest with you. As long as you want us all in there?” Vaughn is looking down at me as he undoes his belt.
My eyes are glued to him as I just nod my head. Watching the way his fingers work the belt off. He pulls the leather free from the loops, a noise as the leather moves over the fabric. It makes me slicker between my legs and I whine.
Vaughn smirks, snapping the belt together. My thighs squeeze together at the motion.
“Aren’t you a dirty little-”
“Darling.” Griffin interrupts him and gives Vaughn a look I don’t understand.
It’s very unlike Griffin to interrupt any sort of thought that can lead to sex. It goes against everything my Alpha believes in.
He’s already gotten undressed and is standing in just a pair of plaid soft blue boxers. They have a dark spot on the front from the way he is leaking inside of them.
I would like to lick that spot.
“Apollo has been texted and-”
“APOLLO!” I interrupt Mickey. “Can I talk to him? I miss him. Can you tell him I would like to sleep in his bed when he comes home? I would like that a lot. Please . Say please so he knows I’m polite. Please, Mickey. Let him know I miss him so much.” I’m begging the Beta to do my bidding.
Mick kneels down beside the nest. He’s still in too many clothes. He’s also not texting Apollo like I need him to!
He strokes my lips, the frown I had been wearing making me try and smile for him.
“We can call him at breakfast, okay? Apollo doesn’t know you’re in pre-heat so we want to help you start feeling better before calling him. Okay, little Omega?” I love how he is stroking my face so I just nod my head.
I want everyone in my nest.
“Can we cuddle now? Please. I think that I would like to be cuddled a lot. I’m so tired. And hot. And slick. It is so sticky and wet between my legs. Do you-”
“Let me hold you.” Griffin is climbing into the nest. His arm wrapping around my waist as he drags me against his chest.
Oh .
I like his cuddles. The way our legs wrap around each other, how his big hand goes under the hoodie to rub my lower back. His jaw is nuzzling into my cheek and it feels like I’ve gone boneless at the contact we’re sharing.
If hockey doesn’t work out Griffin can be a professional cuddler. A growl comes out of me and I hear a soft shh.
“What has you growling, little Omega?” Mickey is behind me. He kisses the top of my head in a gentle move.
Such a good Beta.
“I was thinking of Griffin cuddling someone else. It made me feel growly.” I explain, thankful when Griffin squeezes me tighter against him.
So nice.
This is the best.
Vaughn’s scent hits me and I feel a hand stroking my thigh that is thrown over Griffin’s. He must be behind the other Alpha. Having him close like this is so nice.
Still wish Apollo was here.
“I like when you get jealous over me.” Griffin is smiling. My eyes are closed and I already can tell that he is giddy over the attention that I am giving him.
Good.
I’ll give him all the attention.
My hips try to do circles, wanting some relief. Griffin squeezes me against him to stop my movements.
“Just cuddles tonight, okay? I need you to stay close to me and let me just breathe you in. Tomorrow we can talk about doing more. Tonight is just about comfort and touch like this. Okay?”
Not okay.
I would like more.
Maybe if I say please?
“Please?”
“No, lucky Clover. Let me just hold you. Come breathe me in. Does it feel nice now that Vaughn pulled the blankets over us? Is Mick warm against your back? Do you feel all of us here for you? How much we care about you? How we love being here with you?” Griffin nuzzles me again and I can’t help sighing out in pleasure.
This is perfect.
This does feel good.
I do feel cared for.
“Is this what it’s like being pack?” I ask.
“This is what it’s like being with our pack, cherry girl. This is what we are like. This is how we want to give to you.” Vaughn explains, his fingers stroking up and down my leg in the most soothing of caresses.
Being in this pack could be what I’ve always wanted. Feeling cared for and safe. It’s everything that I’ve always wanted to have.
Now, I’m getting it all.
A yawn comes out from my lips and I can’t stop myself from squeezing my eyes closed. Letting the warmth and soft touches of my pack wash over me.
I’m safe. I’m cared for. I’m ready to sleep.
It’s so hot and heavy in my nest. I feel like I’ve been buried alive. In a good way.
Poking my head out from a muscled bicep that I recognize as Griffin’s, I Army crawl from my nest to the bathroom.
Ten minutes later, after a quick shower; my skin felt sticky from sweat that I wasn’t entirely sure was all mine. I’m flicking through my phone to see what I missed last night.
The pre-heat spike had me still feeling a bit hazy, but I was more of myself this morning. Mama Joy said in moments like this I should try to eat and hydrate. So I make my way downstairs to the kitchen, opening the fridge.
There are several tumblers of water that are already filled. I don’t know why Alpha’s feel the need to tell Omega’s to hydrate, but I do appreciate all the pretty cups that they have bought for me.
Taking one out, I start making toast with jam.
My fingers go to the text thread with just Apollo. Smiling when I see that someone texted him last night from my phone saying that I missed him.
I snap a picture of me. I am wearing one of his hoodies, my blonde hair down and framing my face in the natural curls that are still slightly wet after my shower.
Instead of replying I see a FaceTime request ringing and swipe at the phone to answer.
“Cherub, how are you my darling?” His voice is rough from sleep and his face is shadowed. Obviously he still is in bed at whatever hotel they had been at last night.
Mister One purrs as he jumps up, batting at the phone and knocking it from where I had propped it up.
I scoop the cat up and set the phone back up. Snuggling Sir Purrington to my chest and giving him a kiss I smile at Apollo.
He hates the cat, but he would never say that to me because he knows how much I love him.
“I miss you. Are you still coming home tomorrow?”
“Yeah, cherub. I miss you so much too. Maybe we can convince the boys to let you come on the next trip with me.” I would love to travel. I think I’d miss everyone else though. I don’t tell Apollo that, though. “Are you wearing my hoodie?” I nod my head in confirmation, leaning in to sip my water. “What a good Omega you are. Is everyone still asleep?” I nod again at his question.
“They’re all in my nest.” My eyes flick to the clock and realize it’s still pretty early in the morning.
The others won’t have to go to a pregame skate until around 3PM. Since they like to be at the rink early to stretch and get ready for their game. Mama Joy will be here by then along with Mother Martha and Apollo’s dads.
For a moment I wish Gracie had come along with them. She had been very nice to me when I needed it the most. I wonder if I could be friends with her. I’m learning that I’m not great at knowing who is a real friend.
“In your nest? What am I missing out on?” His voice feels like silk and I shiver, kissing Captain One on the head before setting him down to go eat the food I had set out for him.
“Nothing. We just cuddled last night. Griffin decided that they couldn’t do more. He just held me and we had a group cuddle together. He said we could talk about doing more tonight. He wants my consent before he touches me. He’s talked a lot about consent with me before we touch each other.” I ramble on and watch the way Apollo shifts in bed at what I'm saying to him.
I wish I was in bed with him. Maybe in bed under him.
Taking a bite of my toast I pout.
“Maybe I should fly out after the game this afternoon. I could probably be home before the game starts.” He must see something on my face because he nods his head, “I’ll be there with you, okay cherub?”
Should I tell him I’m not going to the game?
Yes .
I want to make sure that I don’t lie to my Alpha’s. Most of my life people left me out of conversations. I didn’t know what was going on and it made me feel lost. It’s why now I have a hard time with some stuff.
My quiet must throw him off.
“Are you tired, Clover? Why don’t you go back to your nest? I bet they will all be wanting to curl up with you. I know I would.” I smile at Apollo, feeling better talking to him.
Last night I had missed him. Getting this connection feels good. Even if it’s just through a screen.
“Do you mind if I lay in your bed, Alpha? I miss you and want to scent you.” He makes a sound in the back of his throat and my thighs clench together. Slick gushes from me and my underwear can barely contain it
“Please, bring the phone with you cherub. I want to lay with you if you’re in my bed.” I nod my head, cleaning up my mess in the kitchen as best as I can, “Bring your water, Omega.”
Alphas and their bossiness.
I take the tumbler up the stairs, pausing outside my room for a moment. I can hear Griffin’s soft snores and the way that Mick breathes. Vaughn is scratching his chest because he is a bit restless in his sleep.
For a second, I want to join them.
Instead, I choose my time with Apollo over the cuddles I would get. They take a pregame nap and I can always sneak in for a snuggle then.
Climbing into Apollo’s bed, I set the phone down facing me as I move things around. I like to be covered usually, but I’m still running a bit hot. I wiggle around and he can see that I’m getting frustrated.
“What’s wrong, Clover?” This is where I need to be honest with him.
“I’m having a pre-heat spike so I’m warm. I didn’t put anything on under the hoodie, other than my panties, and I don’t want to make you uncomfortable.” I explain to him. It earns me that deep Alpha groan and I watch him shift in his hotel bed.
It feels good to tell him what’s going on. I don’t want things to be weird between us.
“Are you okay? I can skip the game and come home early if you need me. Someone should have let me know what was going on.” He seems worried.
Apollo likes to make sure things go well. He is so concerned about everyone else that I think that he forgets about himself sometimes. It’s why they boys didn’t want to tell him last night about the heat spike. They’re afraid that he is going to get himself too worked up and risk his career.
He deserves his happiness and dreams that he worked for before he met me. I don’t ever want him to lose that just because of my designation and my presence in his life.
“I’m fine. I promise. I’m just warm and a bit achy? It’s nice talking to you. It’s making me feel more settled.” He nods his head at this, eyes taking me in.
“Why don’t you take off my hoodie and let me see that pretty body of yours?” He frames it like a question and my cheeks flush.
Suddenly I feel very shy.
“Do you need help, little Omega?” I look over my shoulder to where Mick is walking in. His white boxer briefs clinging to him so I can see every inch of his hard length. “Morning O.” I’ve never heard Mick call Apollo that before.
He uses the nickname like a lovers name and I love seeing the relationship they have. I nod at the Beta, who climbs up on the bed behind me, moving to help tug the hoodie off my body. He tosses it away from me and wraps his arm around my stomach, chin on my shoulder as we stare at the small phone screen.
Apollo has shifted in his bed now. I can see his naked chest and one of his hands is missing from where it was tucked behind his head before.
“Are you feeling better now?” The husky tone of his voice makes me bite my lip, but I nod at him in confirmation.
In all honesty, I feel achier now. The slick is making a mess of my panties and I wonder if he can see the wetness soaking through the material. It’s going to make a mess of his bed. I’ll have to change it before he comes home.
It doesn’t matter because when Mick runs his nose over my shoulder and up my neck, I can’t hold in the moan that comes out. I melt back against him with a whimper.
“She is leaking slick from her panties, all over your bed, O. Can you see the damp spot? Right here.” His hand on my stomach moves down to point out the spot on my panties that is just growing as the seconds pass.
Apollo groans and I watch him bring a hand to his mouth, spitting into it before it goes down again.
My nose wrinkles and Mick laughs, a gentle chuckle against the throbbing pulse point of my neck.
“He’s making his palm wet so he can stroke his cock looking at you. Do you want him to move the camera so that you can see what you’re doing to our Alpha? Do you want to show him how slick and wet you are right now?” Mickey kisses my neck softly. His gentle touches feel so good.
“We can lay down and I can be here while you sleep, cherub. There is no pressure. Whatever you want.” Apollo's voice is so calm.
Even though he isn’t here with us I still feel safe just talking with him. It’s what makes me finally start to calm down. My brain sometimes goes on overdrive, telling me what I can’t do and not what I can do.
I’m an Omega. My Alpha and Beta are here because they want me to feel safe and confident in my sexuality. I’m in charge here. This is my choice and there is no pressure either way.
“Can I see you more? Mick can show you more of me too.” I offer it up so that it’s fair. I don’t want to make Apollo feel uncomfortable if he is the only one being shown. “Mickey can get naked too so it’s even.” Apollo chuckles in a low, deep way. A shiver racing down my spine.
His arm moves, the way his arm flexes makes me groan out, wanting to feel his arms around me. He’s so big, strong. All the energy he gives off makes me feel even more wet between my legs.
Mickey moves slightly, his briefs coming off. I don’t see how he looks and it almost makes me pout. That is until I feel the length of him hard against my ass. His cock pressed into me, rocking gently so that I can feel how he’s reacting to all this.
Beans and biscuits.
Apollo moves the camera and I groan out, heart beating rapidly as I look at what he is showing me.
I knew Apollo would be big, everything else about him is massive. Of course he would be big down there.
His knot isn’t even fully swollen yet and I whimper, thinking about how it could tear me open if he was inside of me. His cock is thick and long. He presses it against his stomach as he strokes upward and then down. He’s shaved clean around it, but from his belly button down to his shaft, there is short dark blonde hair that is like the yellow brick road to paradise.
I want to click my heels and follow the yellow brick road.
“Sweetness, the way you’re looking at me is driving me insane.” Apollo groans as he squeezes his knot. “Can Mick take off your panties so I can see how wet you are for me?”
I hook my thumbs into my panties and Mick puts his hands over mine, tugging down the panties that I was wearing. Strings of slick stick to the fabric as they come down my thighs.
Mick helps get them off me, setting them to the side before once more coming behind me. He sits down on the bed, pulling me back against him. His cock against my back, hard and sticky as it leaks out.
He opens my legs with his and I’m fully on display for Apollo.
“Oh, fuck fuck fuck .”
The curse words make me blush, my eyes still looking directly in the camera, watching him pump himself up and down as he watches me.
“Are you okay with me touching you, Clover? Can I feel inside your pretty pink pussy? Make you come on my fingers? Taste those sweet nipples?” The feel of his teeth nipping my shoulder makes me shiver.
“I would like this a lot. If you want to. Only if you want. But I would like it.” I stutter out. My mind is on overdrive just wanting to feel pleasure.
Mick kisses me to help me settle down. His lips are so gentle as he eases me into kissing him. Gentle soft kisses that made me smile.
“Oh, he wants to, cherub. Spread her for me. I want to see the pretty color she is between her folds.” Apollo is stroking fast, up and down before he stops squeezing his knot.
Mick’s hand comes between my legs, his palm on my clit as his two fingers spread me apart to open me up. I feel exposed, but at the same time it’s making me feel hot all over. My hips rise, trying to get some friction. I’m acting on impulse. Chasing what feels good.
“Ease that ache for her.” Apollo commands, “Your pussy is the prettiest color. It’s the same color pink as Barbie. You’re our pretty little doll. Aren’t you cherub? Such a sweet, good girl.”
Mick slides one hand over my breast as Apollo talks. His thumb stroking over my nipple as I whimper, feeling slick coming out of me, and running over the Beta’s fingers.
His hand that had been holding me open moves. One of his fingers teases at my entrance as his palm rubs against my clit. His finger pushed into my body, slowly. The slick easing his slide in as I whine again.
“Oh Goddess, O. She’s so tight. Holy shit. How, how do you feel so good, little Omega? Fuckkkk . Squeeze my finger again. Just like that. Good girl, Clover. Just relax and let me take care of you. We’ll put on a show for our Alpha and make you feel good.” I love how he talks. Breathing promises in my ear as he works my body.
It’s pure bliss.
My hands reach behind me, dragging Mickey’s lips over mine because I know I’m about to make a mess.
“Give it to her, Mick. Make our sweet Omega come. I need to see it.” The heat of Apollo’s words almost feel like a command.
Mickey is rolling his hips against my back as we kiss. He tugs on my nipple and then his fingers curl, tapping something inside of me and I let go.
My whole body is shaking at the way the orgasm washes over me. Everything feels warm and tingly all over. I press my hips back, grinding into the hard feel of Mickey behind me. His fingers are still tapping away at me.
“Shit. Shit. FUCK!” A roar comes from the phone. Our kiss breaks as we watch Apollo come.
He covers himself in thick white strings of it. I watch it dripping down his abs as he sucks in air. The way it pools near his belly button. The mess makes me want to drag my tongue and clean up the entire mess that he made.
I frown seeing my phone has water droplets on it.
“My phone’s wet.” I reach for it to wipe it off, but Mick grabs my wrist to stop me.
“That’s your slick that you squirted out when you came, little Omega.” He informs me.
I made that mess?
“Do you feel any better, cherub? Did our Beta ease some of that ache for you?” Apollo asks and I nod my head, “Thank you for showing me how pretty you are when you come. I can’t wait to come home to you. I’ll be back tonight. I promise you both. I need to shower and head out with the team now. Will you be okay?” I nod sleepily, moving to cuddle Mick some more, “Take care of our Omega, McKinley.”
“Yes Alpha.” He sasses before hanging up. “Lay down. I’m going to get a cloth and clean you up.” He kisses my forehead as I lay down, rolling over so I’m in a dry zone.
I just woke up and I’m exhausted again. So, I close my eyes and just let the good feeling wash over me.
