Chapter 29
Chapter Twenty-Nine
Hael
“ S o, Gracie Girl, let’s have a chat.” I chuckle at the way her whole body jolts as she hiccups. She gets pissed with every single one and fusses, only to be distracted again by another hiccup.
It’s a whole process that seems to be taxing her nerves to the extreme.
There’s no doubt in my mind—Gracie is mine. I would give my life if it meant keeping her safe. It’s a wild feeling, when two months ago, we didn’t even know she or Arbor existed.
It speaks to how drastically things can change.
I’m happier now than I’ve ever been.
At this point, Arbor better settle into the fact she’s found her pack because I would never be able to handle being away from them.
“How do you feel about siblings?” I ask, patting Gracie’s bum.
I tried burping the hiccups away, but that didn’t help, so we’re letting them ride until they go away naturally.
“Arbor would kick you in the balls if she could hear you right now,” Morris says, chuckling.
Possibly.
Okay, probably.
“I don’t mean right now,” I assure Gracie, nuzzling my cheek to the side of her head. “You get to be the center of attention for at least another year or two.” I glance at Morris. “Don’t you miss the baby belly? It was so fast, we barely got to see it before it was gone.”
Morris flips the page in his book, shrugging a massive shoulder. “I wouldn’t say no to more kids. I’d also be happy with just one.”
“Hell no,” I growl. “Not happening. Do you know how lonely that would be for her?”
“Not if you’re a good parent. Plenty of people don’t have siblings, and they’re happy with their childhoods.”
I frown. “I don’t like the sound of that.”
Ultimately, it’s up to Arbor. She’s the one who has to carry the baby and deal with giving birth.
Speaking of the sexy little omega, I think I’m going to invite myself in on her movie date with Hayes.
Based solely on their scents, they quite enjoyed their afternoon at the gym. They showered and ate dinner with us. Then Arbor nursed Gracie, and Hayes practically carted her off again.
I don’t mind being a good team player, but I know how possessive Hayes was with his clothes and toys growing up. Not that Arbor is a possession, but I’m not going to let him get too comfortable with keeping her to himself.
Sorry, not sorry.
I let myself into the pack bedroom with zero shame. It makes me wonder how much longer we’re going to have to wait until we can all move in here.
My parents’ pack all shared one big bedroom growing up, and that’s what I want too. I’m not sure I could be happy rotating nights with Arbor, even if we’ll have to create a rotation of who gets to sleep next to her each night. That’s a minor inconvenience. I just want us all together, acting like a real pack.
The room is dark, and there’s some old horror movie playing on the TV.
Hayes is on his side with Arbor’s back to his chest. They’re facing away from me, but there’s half a bed left in front of her.
I swagger across the room and climb up the end of the mattress like I have a formal invitation.
Hayes’s head whips up, and he growls.
This motherfucker actually has the audacity to growl at me . I’ve gone out of my way to make sure he and Morris have adequate time with her alone, but it’s time he practices sharing.
I flip him off and smirk at how wide Arbor’s eyes are as she studies my bare chest. Pulling back the blanket, I climb under the covers and my nose twitches. “I thought you were watching a movie. Is this a cuddle or a cuddle-fuck? For the record, I’m down to join in on either.”
“Cuddle-fuck?” Arbor laughs, but the look on Hayes’s face says he’s daydreaming ways to murder me without Arbor noticing.
Ha, fat chance of that happening.
Shimmying down the bed, I roll to face her, and she grins, making my chest all warm and fuzzy. I’m pretty sure that feeling is the beginning of falling in love, but it doesn’t scare me. I’m ready to fully embrace the next stage of my life.
“Yeah, you know, the lazy kind of sex. Maybe a little watching the movie, a little getting distracted and needing to rewind.” I smirk, planting my hand on her hip. Only, Hayes’s hand is on her waist, so I have to knock it out of the way to make room for mine.
Judging by the smell, I’m going to guess they just got done, but she is in her nightgown, so I’m confused.
Arbor wraps a hand around the back of my neck, tugging me closer. She’s growing braver and more confident, and I love every second of it. When her naughty little tongue teases my lips, I open for her while trying to hold back my smile. I’ve never been smitten before, but I’m really enjoying the heady excitement I get every time she grins my way.
Hayes glaring at me over her shoulder only makes this even more comical. I let him get away with the not sharing thing as kids, but that’s not going to fly in pack life.
My fingers tease down Arbor’s hip, and I don’t feel any panties.
Ahh, I think I understand.
The dress is only down in front, but I’m guessing he’s got it pulled up in the back. I hit bare skin on her thigh and work around to tease her clit as her tongue slides around mine.
That fucker is still inside her. He should be considerably more jovial.
Arbor keeps one hand wrapped around my neck, but her other works down to grab my cock. The omega isn’t afraid of a little two-on-one action, and that makes my dick throb.
Her lips are soft and plush, and her tongue leaves hints of cherry blossoms tinged with lightning with every swipe. It makes no sense, but I’ve just accepted that I’m always going to have an addiction to her scent.
She’s an incredible kisser, slow and sensual and playful at the same time.
It’s an erotic combination. Well, that and the feeling I’m hit with as I suck down her pheromones.
I’m so lost to the kiss that I almost miss her hand sliding down the front of my sweats. I was good with a little over-the-material action, but if she wants to get freakier, I’m here for it.
“Aww, fuck,” Hayes growls, but I ignore him as Arbor fists my shaft.
She moans against my lips, and I apply firmer pressure to her clit.
“Do you like that, beautiful? Being the peanut butter in a twin sandwich?” I ask as her entire body shivers. “Hell, you probably count as the jelly too.”
Arbor gasps, squeezing the hell out of my shaft.
Huh, maybe they weren’t done just yet.
Her grip gets so intense it’s almost painful, but I also kinda dig it.
That’s weird.
Ehh, I’m still not judging myself too harshly.
Arbor’s pheromones are fucking my head up.
I’m not a possessive guy. I understand exactly how important it is for all of her relationships to be equal. So…why are my instincts screaming at me to yank her off Hayes’s cock to impale her on mine?
She runs her thumb over the sticky head of my dick, and I growl, nipping at her lips.
The fog hits hard, to the point I don’t even know what I’m doing until I’m in motion.
I grab Arbor’s shoulder and roll her toward Hayes. As her hand flies out of my sweats, she gives a confused look. Luckily, Hayes gets the idea and pulls her with him until she’s on top of him, facing the ceiling. He manages to stay inside her during the entire transition.
I crawl over their outstretched legs and grab her hands, tugging her up. It’s a whole process to get her dress off, and I reach around to handle her bra.
“Hael…I’ll leak,” she whispers, her hot breath fanning over my chest.
“It won’t bother me a bit. I want you naked,” I growl, stealing a kiss while she’s distracted.
Hayes gets tired of my fumbling and takes over unhooking her bra.
I pull back from the kiss and frown. I forgot that he’s still inside her, and there’s no way I’d try DVP so soon after she gave birth. I climb off Hayes and lift Arbor, turning her to face him.
“Pop that pussy up for me, beautiful.” I slap her ass, tug out of my sweats, and get situated over Hayes’s knees once more. It’s a complicated process because of how Arbor is positioned, but I figure that shit out.
Fisting my cock, I refuse to let myself feel any jealousy as Arbor kisses Hayes.
Fuck, I should have picked a better position .
I really wanted to feel her tits bounce against my chest and suck on them while they leak.
The naughty little omega wiggles her hips and moans. The sound makes my cock jolt and my nipples tighten—which is weird, but I go with it. Swirling my thumb over my crown, I stare at her soaked pussy.
“Hael!” Arbor snaps, glaring at me over her shoulder.
I laugh, shaking my head. “You want my cock?”
“Yes,” she says, sounding exasperated.
Yup, I’m definitely head over dick in love with that sassy little woman.
“Beg for it.” I quirk an eyebrow and nod at Hayes. “How about you provide backup assistance… Tease her clit, play with her tits, do something other than just lie there.”
“That sounds good,” Arbor says, nodding wildly. “And please, Hael, I need you.”
She’s not just glistening, she’s actually dripping.
It’s hot as fuck, even if some of that might be Hayes’s cum. I jerk myself harder, and my free hand lands on her outer ass cheek, pulling her farther apart so I can line up with her opening. I dig my fingers into her skin as I thrust, freezing only a few inches inside her tight cunt.
She’s so snug, it takes my breath away.
“Goddamn,” I groan at the feeling of her inner walls clenching. She’s physically hotter than I am, but I have no idea if omegas naturally have a higher baseline temp than alphas do.
Arbor gets tired of waiting for me, and she rocks on her knees, shoving herself farther down my length.
Hayes caresses her cheeks, murmuring something too softly for me to hear.
I finally get myself in gear, pulling out and working deeper on every stroke. “Holy shit, beautiful. You’re fucking me all up.”
It’s true.
I’ve never felt anything like the way she ripples. The first inch or two inside her opening spasms in an even more intense pattern. Hell, maybe I’m high off her pheromones, but it’s unreal.
I thought I had something to prove to Hayes, but I almost wish I had waited to have my first time with Arbor be solo.
Almost, but not quite .
My hands dig into Arbor’s waist, and I really practice rocking her world. “I can’t believe I’m inside you bare… Shit, I forgot to ask about birth control.” The thought of seeing her big and round with my baby sends a jolt to my aching cock.
Morris is right. She would probably kick me in the balls if she knew I was already daydreaming about more kids.
“We’re good,” she moans, grinding back to meet me. “I got the shot.”
“Well, damn. Okay, just let me live in the fantasy of role-play breeding you. My instincts are all out of whack.” I shake my head, trying to clear away the fog, but it doesn’t help shit.
Mount. Rut. Breed. Claim. My system is particularly stuck on the whole breeding part.
“Daydream all you’d like,” she says. “It’s still not going to happen.”
I bite my lip to keep from adding “yet” to the end of her sentence. My forearm flexes as I tighten my hold, and I work on turning her into a begging pile of omega.
The happier she is, the less likely she’ll try to leave us.
Arbor holds herself up with her hands on Hayes’s chest, and I really love when I slap into her with enough force that her tits bounce around the sides of her chest. I thrust deep at the same time she slams her hips back, and my knot slides inside her.
“Are you okay?” I choke out, running a hand down her spine.
Her head shakes then nods. “Yeah, I will be. Okay, wow, I already am. Rut!”
My knot swells, locking us together as my heart thunders. As her walls clamp down tight, it’s almost too much pressure. Every tiny movement makes my knot throb, and the last thing I want to do is to hurt her.
I didn’t think we’d tackle knotting for a while, like maybe months .
“Are you sure you’re okay?” I ask, trying not to panic.
“Rut!” She moans, shimmying her thick hips. “Fuck me, Hael. I’m not going to break, but I am going to hurt you if you don’t move.”
I work a hand between her and Hayes and pull her up until she’s kneeling with her back to my chest. I’m pretty sure she’s been grinding her clit against Hayes’s cock… That, or he’s just covered in a puddle of her dripping slick. He wraps his hand around his dick and stares at Arbor’s tits as he jerks off.
She writhes against me like she’s trying to force me where she wants me to go.
“I’ve got you,” I murmur, flattening my palm on her sternum. “Enjoy the ride, beautiful.” I buck up into her, really digging the way her tits bounce.
Milk dribbles from her nipples, and somehow, it only makes my dick harder.
My instincts are back to breeding her all over again. Once she’s pregnant with our baby, the world will be able to see that she’s taken.
Arbor’s arm slides down, and she begins to work her clit. “You’re so deep.” Her head rolls around my chest with each grinding thrust I give her. “So hard… So good.”
“Yeah,” I agree, trying to keep the insanity from escaping. “You know you’re never getting away now, right, Arbor? You’re mine. Don’t run. I’d have to chase?—”
Ahh, fuck.
“You’re ours,” Hayes says, slapping his crown against her clit.
“Oh, God,” Arbor groans, nearly falling forward.
I tighten my hold on her sternum to keep her upright, and my fucked-up impulses try to convince me that now would be the perfect time to ask about how soon we can have another baby.
Hayes and I have never had twintuition. I’ve never even believed it exists, but Hayes glares at me, shaking his head, and I vaguely wonder if he can read my mind.
I’ve never been locked together with someone, and it’s indescribable.
I’m not sure if omegas secrete a special kind of pheromone when they’re being knotted or if her normal perfume is just thick enough to knock out rational thought, but it’s hard to even know what to focus on.
“Bite, please,” Arbor says, trying to collapse onto Hayes. This time, I help her lower to his chest and follow her down, planting my free hand by Hayes’s head. “You’re right, I’m yours! Bite me…” Her inner walls spasm, and the way she squeezes my knot makes my head even foggier.
I hear Hayes growl my name, but I’m already in the process of pulling her hair to the side. Based on where I strike, the marks will be visible on the front of her shoulder, just above her collarbone. My incisors dig in deep as my shaft swells.
Arbor sobs something… I’m so overstimulated that it’s hard to be sure, but I think she says, “You too.”
Her scent floods my mind, and somehow, I understand she accepted our bond.
I groan, lapping at her blood and thrusting as much as possible when we’re locked together. My cock empties, and I paint her pussy with my cum.
Everything just changed. She won’t be able to get away from us now.
Oh, shit.
Can she read my thoughts?
I’ll have to try to be less stalkery.
Her excitement filters through the bond, and a half second later, I’m smacked with her arousal. My orgasm was fading, but her pleasure radiates into me through the link, and I start to rut again while she sobs.
I pull my teeth free, licking over my bite to clean and seal it, but my jaw falls. Hayes is buried in her throat on the other side of her neck, and based on the little I can see, I’m pretty sure his bite will always be visible…unless she wears a turtleneck.
Still, I can’t bring myself to be annoyed.
This little omega is officially ours .
