Perfume explodes around us when he stalks up the bed, strong hands moving me until I’m on my belly, prone beneath him. My cheek hits the mattress, thighs closed as Dez grinds against my ass.

“Pillow.”

Nate tosses one, careful not to get too close. When it’s wedged beneath my hips, propping them up at just the right height, both alphas groan.

Dez runs his hand over my exposed pussy. “You’re so wet for me, little muse. Utterly soaked. You ready?”

“God, yes.”

This time, he doesn’t tease me. He wets his dick with slick before sliding slowly inside me. From this angle, it’s almost too much of him. My body’s tight, his cock too wide, but he works himself in with sure, even strokes until his hips press against my ass, draping himself along my back.

“Fuck, you’re perfect.”He grunts, thrusting just a little. He’s so deep that it feels unreal to have him like this.

Our fingers lace together, and I twist to meet his mouth. The ultimate connection in this perfect moment. “Show me how much you’ve missed me.”

I think it’ll be a slow, sweet build-up. That Dez will be too focused on holding his control to want to do more. I couldn’t be more wrong.

He fists my hair, twisting so I’m facing Nate, then holds me there. “Let him see you, little muse. Let your alpha see how well I take care of our omega. Look in his eyes while you scream my fucking name.”

Dez plunges into me, harder, faster, as if he never wants to leave. He touches me, holds me, loves me with his body like I’m his only home. His reason for existence. He pulls sounds from my throat I’ve never heard, pleasure from my soul that feels timeless. Eternal.

And he doesn’t fucking stop.

With a low snarl that sends shivers over my skin, he hauls me up so I’m practically sitting on his lap, knees outside his own, rutting me from below with an intensity that takes my breath away. Or maybe it’s the constant rumbling growl shaking my body like my own personal vibrator. I don’t know and I’m not sure I care, especially when he’s so deep his knot teases me with every thrust.

Suddenly, Nate’s eyes fly wide, and he rushes us, swearing. I have the faintest impression of teeth on my neck before Dez is shoved away.

“No!” I cry out at the loss of him, reaching for my missing alpha, but Nate plants me behind him.

“Stay.” I claw at his arms until he locks my hands at my sides, making sure he can keep an eye on Dez and I at the same time. “Daphne, he’s fucking feral right now. Unless you’re ready for a bite tonight, do what I say.”

For a moment, I genuinely consider it, but that’s all he needs. He cradles my cheek gently. “If you have to think, you’re not ready, kitten.”

We’re interrupted by a bone shaking growl and then Nate’s gone, snatched away by Dez’s grip on his ankle. “Give me my omega.”

“Not until you calm the fuck down,” Nate snaps.

Dez’s muscles tense, body primed and ready to claim. “I need her.”

“We all do, but you can’t bite her yet.” Nate points at me, like he knows I’m going to whine before I do. “I saidyet, not never.”

That tension blooms until Nate whispers something and my snarling, angry alpha disappears, leaving only Dez and the almost catastrophe in my nest behind.

“What do I do? I need to touch her.” Every word seems to hurt him, and it kills me.

Nate rolls his eyes. “So, knot her. That’ll take the edge off.”

“I can’t.”

“Can’t or won’t?”

“Both.”

Nate’s brows crease in confusion. “Is it because you did it earlier? Because I’ve knotted Daphne more than once in the same night and it didn’t hurt her.”

This should probably mortify me, but I’m deeply satisfied watching my alphas work together.

Dez grinds his teeth, still looking a little too feral for conversation. “I didn’t knot her earlier.”
