“Have you ever had two cocks at the same time?” I ask, using a bandana I bought downstairs to pull her curls up while I have the chance. Rut edges close to the surface, ready to swallow me whole the second it can, but not yet.

“No. My old pack…”

I understand her territorial attitude on a visceral level. There should be no discussions about other men while I’m inside her. “They aren’t here. Are they, angel?”

Daph shakes her head, clinging desperately to me as Nate adds another finger. She swallows, eyes locked on the wall. Hiding from me. “Have you done this before?”

Oh, sweet, sad omega. Everything she says breaks me down a little more.

“We haven’t shared a partner or an omega. Haven’t tended a heat together. This is all new to us.” I bring her mouth to mine to steal a kiss, offering a confession in return. “I’m so glad it’s you.”

“You are?”

“Yeah, Daph. I am.” I shouldn’t be, but I can’t stop myself.

We’re caught again, that perfect, comfortable eye contact that feels so strangely necessary.

Nate’s big hands sweep Daphne’s sides, hips and ass as she melts into me. “You ready, kitten?”

“Yes.”

The snick of a lube bottle and the wet sounds of him working it into Daphne’s body fill the nest. When everyone’s ready, Nate and I take her together. The most eager heart and the hardest one, falling apart for the omega we can’t stop touching.

“Fuck, you feel so right,” he groans, teeth gritted in restraint. “We’re going to take such good care of you, Daph.”

“This is just the beginning.” Dez strokes her face, whispering how perfect she looks between us. Swearing when she tilts her head and takes his cock between her lips. Uniting us in a way we’ve never had. One pack, one omega, one heat.

And through it all, Daphne glows. She balances our hard thrusts and Dez’s desperate groans, hands sweeping over our bodies in a way that feels instinctual. Everything.

When she’s come enough that she can barely hold herself up anymore, and Nate and Dez have covered her in cum so their scents sink in, Daphne locks her teeth into my neck at the same time I lock my knot inside her.

It’s Dez’s quick hand and the teeth caps that keep her from going too far. I’m too busy trapping her to me, pulling her closer. Deeper.

It’s the haze, I tell myself, struggling to let her go. To pull her back. In a few hours, this woman has broken open all my defenses with such little effort it’s laughable. Entranced me into her arms and this nest when I swore I’d never do either again.

A miracle, indeed.

One I don’t know how to keep. Or if I even should.

When Dez is sure Daph won’t sink her teeth into me, he pulls away, leaving me to experience the bliss of knotting my omega for the first time. It takes me too long to realize what I’m feeling is wonder.

Awe.

There’s nothing like being this close to Daphne. No partner who compares.

She’s destroyed me and she didn’t even have to try.

“Thank you,” I whisper against her mouth, too needy to let her move away even a bit.

“For what?”

Everything.

A lazy sigh and fluttering lashes are all we get as the heat spike bursts and Daphne becomes dead weight on my chest. Cum leaks from where we touch and I purr, happy to see her body preparing for the next round of chaos.

“She’s perfect,” Nate says, nuzzling against my side with his hand planted firmly on her ass. He gives one great yawn and passes the fuck out.

Dez gawks as he slides over, tracing Daphne’s thighs with barely there touches until they quiver. “Is he?—”
