“Isn’t that up to me?” I laughed.

He leaned in and kissed my cheek. “Of course, but you choosing to stay around is the same thing.”

“Next,” called a bored-sounding attendant.

“Go ahead,” Ian said, motioning to me.

I grinned, sat as indicated by the signs, and let the water carry me down the twisting tube. Laughter bubbled up as I reached the end, and I almost forgot to hold my breath as I splashed into the pool below.

I wiped the water from my face and swam to the safe area just as I heard Beck’s “Whee!” as he reached the end of the slide.

Beck’s splash doused me anew and caused another fit of laughter.

He grinned, swam over, and pulled me into his arms, and surprised me with a kiss. “Having fun?”

“Yeah,” I replied just as Tony came off the slide.

“Good.”

Tony swam over and wrapped his arms around both our shoulders. “Nobody told me we were having a makeout session at the bottom.”

“Surprise,” Beck laughed while turning to kiss Tony. “I’m in a mood to let everybody know my men are taken.”

Ian and Freddie joined us as they came down the slide, then it was time to head to the next slide. We all made our way to the edge of the pool and the guys started climbing out.

My mouth went dry as water cascaded from their bodies and swim trunks clung to their legs—in addition to other places.

The thoughts I’d been trying to suppress roared to life, and I turned away. I gulped deep breaths while focusing on the water.

“Eric?”

Ripples lapped along the grout line between tiles. Somebody shouted as they splashed into the pool.

More ripples.

“Eric?”

The soft thunk of the flapper in the wall outlet.

A hand landed on my shoulder and I yelped in surprise.

“Whoah,” Freddie said from where he’d swam up behind me. “Are you ok?”

I squeezed my eyes shut and shook my head.

“Are you hurt? Do I need to call a lifeguard?”

I shook my head again. “No. I-I’m not hurt.”

He closed in and slung his arm around my waist. “Talk to me, Sweetheart. What’s wrong?”

I turned and clung to him. “I… I…”

How was I supposed to tell him that I—the omega who was scared to have sex—was having dirty thoughts about the four alphas dating me?

Freddie ran one arm up and down my back.

“Everything ok?” asked a voice I didn’t recognize.
