Story: Ours Later

“Ask away then,” Riley says. “The floor is yours.”

“Okay,” I murmur. “So where are we living in this mysterious future?”

The three of them hesitate before cursing and ripping off their shirts.

“We need to go house hunting,” Riley says.

“We’ve been living from moment to moment, and haven’t thought that far,” Ethan says sheepishly.

“Wherever it is, it needs a decent room for a nest, Princess,”Cooper says firmly. “A place just for you, and we’ll only come in when you want. Privacy and safety is important.”

The way this alpha makes me melt is ridiculous. I think being feral may just be a five letter word for being a simp for your omega. He’ll snap your neck for looking sideways at me, or be completely down to cuddle.

My dopey smile is interrupted by three alphas excitedly staring at me.

“Your turn,” Ethan says, smirking.

“Bring it on,” I tease him.

“Do you want to go back to college?” he asks.

“Yes,” I say immediately, remembering the way my mother tells me that there isn’t a place for smart omegas with an education in the world.

“What do you want to do?” Riley asks interestedly.

“I really don’t know,” I sigh. “I’ve never been allowed to explore things. I just wanted to be able to get a decent job at the end of it.”

“Well, money isn't an issue anymore,” Cooper rumbles. “We all have it, and it’s yours too now.”

“Simple as that?” I ask.

“Yep,” he grunts.

Okay then.

“Who’s next?” I ask smugly. After all, I'm still wearing all of my clothes. Even if my panties are ruined from all the man chest on display.

Damn, Riley has some really gorgeous ink work.

“Me,” the alpha I’m admiring says. “Are you on birth control?”

My brain short circuits as I focus on the fact that I’m missing another type of pill.

“Fuck,” I gasp.

“What?” Riley asks. “I was only half joking. I’m sure at least one of us brought condoms.”

“I did,” Cooper grunts. “One of us has to be an adult. Hey. Nina. You look like you forgot something. What was it?”

“My heat suppressant pills,” I wail. “I wasn’t thinking. I’m so…sorry. I can’t believe I didn’t bring them!”

“Why do you need those when you’re with us?” Ethan asks. “You’re ours. If it happens, we’re here. It really isn’t the end of the world.”

“Doesn’t it feel like I’m tricking you or something? I should have thought of it,” I gasp.

Cooper lunges forward to grab my hands. “Why should you have to be on heat suppressants, Princess?” he asks. “When you have alphas, it’s a moot point. Our job is to take care of you during it. Don’t complicate things. My only concern is how long it’ll take to stop working. I don’t want you to go into heat on your way back to your mother’s house, though I’d prefer to simply kidnap, bite, and bond you.”

“Um, yes please?” I ask, blushing. “Well, there goes my filter.”
