And then I bit him. Hard. Pushing all my will and intent into him for him to take.

A pack lead forms a pack with a bite. Pack members can build their own bonds. Theo and Mackenzie wore my teeth. Now Justice would too, though his would fade. Pity.

I stroked his cock hard and fast, my teeth still in him. He stretched an arm up, over his head to press me closer to him, leaning into my bite. The bond exploded between us. We came, together, with a ferocity I’d never experienced before.

As we shook and screamed, warm gentle hands enveloped us. Justice collapsed into Theo. Mackenzie propped me up by tucking under my shoulder.

Mackenzie reached up and wiped a trickle of blood off my lips. And then she turned to Theo.

“Did we just break our alphas?” She said in a stage whisper.

“Can you come so hard you give yourself a TBI? Is this healthy?” Theo said, running fingers through Justice’s hair.

“Justice does look like he got hit by a truck.”

“A truck made of dick.”

“We’re not qualified for this. We need an adult.”

“We are the adults. That’s the problem.”

“If we are going for a round two, I’m going to need a snack first.”

“Protein bar or blowjob?” Theo asked.

“Yes.”

Justice half laughed, half coughed. He twisted in Theo’s lap so that he could hike his pants back up his hips. “Your alphas are going to need a minute.” His voice was rough.

“Oh, that’s right. I forgot. You’re old.”

We all looked at Mackenzie. She shrugged. It was a dare.

I threw her over my shoulder and stood. She shrieked. Legs shaking, but I fucking stood. I could totally make it as far as Justice’s bed before they gave out.

MACKENZIE TWILL

I stood with my hands on my hips, staring at the sad little mall kiosk crammed between a pretzel stand and one of those places that bedazzled phone cases. The vendor had spread out a pathetic collection of sketchy MLM beauty products across a wooden cart.

“Absolutely not.” I shook my head. “Twist is not a mall kiosk brand.”

Justice raised an eyebrow. “No?”

“Aria is completely off base if she thinks I’m going to sell my products like this.” I gestured at the disaster in front of us. “Look at this setup. It screams ‘knockoff moisturizer that’ll give you a rash.’”

Before I could continue my rant, Justice scooped me up in his arms like I weighed nothing. His mouth was on mine before I could protest, his hands roaming over my back and waist. Not obscene, but definitely possessive. Definitely obvious to anyone within a fifty-foot radius.

When he finally let me breathe, I gasped against his lips. “Justice. Everyone is watching.”

He pulled back just enough to smirk at me. “Is the next phase of your little plan to turn me into a raging exhibitionist?”

My stomach dropped. “You know about the plan?”

“Ren told me about it last night.” His smile turned wicked. “Operation CuddleDom? Really, Mackenzie?”

Heat flooded my cheeks. “I—”

“Theo was right. You should not be in charge of naming things.” He kissed the tip of my nose. “That’s not where your brilliance lies.”
