“I need to go to the café,” she says after a while. “To give my notice.”

I nod and make a left turn toward the coffee shop where she works. “Here we are love.”

“Thanks,” she says thankfully, rubbing the cast on her wrist.

I pull up outside the café and shift in my seat to look at her. The morning sunlight catches the gold flecks in her eyes, making them shine. “Want me to come in with you?”

She shakes her head, a small smile forming on her lips. “I can handle this part on my own. I’ll just be a few minutes.”

I watch her walk inside, her steps lighter than they were this morning. My cock hardens just watching the sway of her hips, knowing she’s moving toward freedom. I adjust myself in my jeans, trying to get comfortable with the persistent erection that I get only around her.

She emerges a short while later, her face flushed with relief. She slides back into the passenger seat, her scent intoxicating. Honey and warmth with a new edge of something spicy that makes my mouth water.

“Everything okay?” I ask though I can tell from her expression that it is.

She nods, a smile playing on her lips.

“They were understanding. They even wished me luck,” she says, laughing softly, the sound tightening my chest. “Everything is changing so fast.”

I start the car and merge back into traffic. “Change is good.”

“Yeah,” she agrees, glancing at me from beneath her lashes. “I think it is.”

Her scent is driving me wild now, that spicy note growingstronger as her excitement builds, mingling with arousal. My omega is getting wet just sitting next to me, and the knowledge makes my cock throb painfully against my zipper.

I shift in my seat, trying to focus on driving instead of how badly I want to pull over and bury my face between her thighs.

I imagine how she’d taste- sweet, like her scent, but richer, deeper. I picture her wetness coating my tongue, her thighs trembling as I lick into her, my fingers spreading her open to savor every inch of her pussy.

My knuckles turn white on the steering wheel as I force myself to keep driving.

Each inhale brings more of her arousal to my nostrils, making my wolf pace and growl with need. I imagine how tight she’d be around my fingers, around my cock, and how she’d moan when I finally pushed inside her, claiming what’s mine. I roll down the window and drive for a while, the scent getting stronger as I salivate in my seat.

Fuck. I can’t drive like this. I’m going to crash the car or do something I might regret.

I spot an abandoned parking lot in front of an old warehouse and abruptly turn in, tires crunching on gravel as I bring the car to a stop in the far corner, hidden from the road.

“What’s wrong?” Mia asks, looking around in confusion. “Why are we stopping?”

I grip the steering wheel tightly, trying to regain control.

“I need to get out for a second,” I manage, my voice strained even to my own ears.

“Are you okay?” she asks, studying my face with a frown.

I’m about to respond when she shifts in her seat, leaning closer to me. The movement sends a fresh wave of her scent crashing over me, and I have to bite back a groan.

“Can I ask you something?” she whispers, her voice small but curious. I nod, unable to trust myself to speak. “Is it normal to be attracted to all three of you at once?”

The question spills out in a rush as if she’s been holding it back.

“What?” I ask, not believing my ears at her admission.

“I’ve never felt anything like this before. I’m sorry, this is so weird.”

She’s so fucking adorable in her confusion that I almost hug her. Her omega instincts are awakening, drawing her to her alphas, and she has no idea what’s happening to her.

“No, it’s not weird.”
