The hurricane of pain battered me from head to toe. If I thought Winnipeg was hell before, the devils torturing me made it very clear now.

The ache to be knotted was, of course, most extreme in the place I wanted to be knotted, but the agony rang through my entire body. I couldn’t think. I could barely walk to get to the bathroom. I tried to eat but my stomach roiled and wouldn’t allow me to keep anything down.

And I couldn’t let anyone know.

Worst part was that I wasn’t even at the climax of my heat yet. It was only like the third or fourth day. Who knew what time it was! Not me. There was still another three to five, or fuck, six days left.

I curled up with no clothes on in the middle of my bed. I’d been on the couch, on the floor, under the bed, and in the empty tub. Nothing was comfortable. None of it helped.

My only relief was when I slept.

Unless I was dreaming…

Casimir’s hot mouth on my pussy. Maddox’s hard body pressing to mine and his fingers inside of me. And Kane’s sizzling kiss, lighting me on fire with desire for him.

Stop thinking about them! I had to suffer through this alone.

“Kienna.” The voice, so familiar, but so far away. I was having auditory hallucinations now.

I buried myself deeper in the blankets, but then kicked them off with a small cry. It was too hot and I couldn’t breathe. I gulped in air and smelled something like… Christmas. A light scent of pine and peppermint. A thread of calm wove through me.

“Kienna.” That voice again, and then there was a hand that touched my shoulder. It was cool and soothing, easing some of the tightness of my pain. I twisted around to find myself staring at Alderic.

“You’re real.” I touched his cheek. Yup, he was definitely real. His presence made things clearer, made me feel a little more like myself. Plus, he was utterly scrumptious, and I still had a need to sate. I wound my fingers in his thick dark hair and tugged him to me. “Come here. Did you bring me a present, Santa?”

“Santa?” Alderic blinked, looking adorably confused as I wrapped my arms around him. He made a small choked sound as my bare breasts pressed against him. “Oh fuck. Ma chérie, you’re naked. Are you alright?”

“More than alright now that you’re here.” I kissed along his neck and loved that he shuddered with it. My thigh nudged the hardness rapidly growing in his pants. He wasn’t an Alpha, so I didn’t feel that extra urgency in my heat nor did I have the need to submit. I needed my freedom. I hated when anything controlled me. With Alderic, I could be in charge, and I liked that thought. A lot .

Yet would he be able to take away my pain, or at least some of it? I didn’t know, but I was more than eager to try. Anything to break free of these vehement Omega urges.

There was a sudden growl and Alderic was yanked away from me to the other side of the bed. I grabbed his leg and snarled at whoever took him away from me. This Beta was mine.

My body reacted to the other person before it registered in my hazy mind who it was.

A renewed fount of slick ran down my thighs, and a whole new level of pain engulfed me. “Casimir.” I hissed out his name. Damn Alpha! I didn’t want to lose myself again just when I was gaining some control. I pointed to the door with my arm shaking like I was a drug addict. “Go away!”

Even as I said it, the last thing I wanted him to do was leave. But if Casimir stayed another second, I would be begging him to knot me. And fuck, didn’t he look like a god in that tight black thermal shirt. It clung to his broad chest and accentuated his muscular arms.

“You need me.” He tossed off that shirt, and oh lord, all that Alpha glory shone on me. I was going to plead with him to fuck me, wasn’t I? “Get out of here, Fournier.”

What? Panic seized me. I lunged and wrapped my arms around Alderic. “No!” I didn’t know why Alderic had such a mollifying effect on me, but I didn’t want to lose it. With him, I felt cared for and lucid. Casimir, on the other hand, took away all my reason. “Alderic stays.”

I cried out and clung to Alderic as another explosion of pain took me.

“Just stay out of the way, Fournier.” Casimir laid his hand on my calf and that alone was like a mini orgasm. I moaned and bit my tongue so that I didn’t demand more even as he ran his hand up my leg. “Kienna, I’m here. I can make the pain go away.”

“Hey now.” Alderic rose up on his knees, not pushing me off him. “Don’t do anything she doesn’t want. She asked you to go away.”

“She needs an Alpha,” Casimir shot back and shoved the Beta. “Move.”

“ Non .” Alderic held his ground. He was the leanest and shortest of the guys on the team. Casimir towered over him as one of the biggest, but he didn’t move. Under his breath, he muttered, “ Je ne peux pas croire que je fais ca… ” Inhaling deeply, he locked his gaze with his teammate. “Casimir, think this through. If you do something now that she doesn’t want, you will regret it later on. You’re here for the same reason I am. I know you care for her.”

“I do. We all know what she needs, even though she’s fighting it. I will make her better.”

“She’s allowed to fight it. We can only do what she says—”

“It could kill her if she doesn’t do something!” Casimir bellowed. “I won’t let that happen.”

I cringed at his shout and trembled with want. Both of them were fighting for me in their own way. It was sweet, brave, and arousing.

“Shut up. Both of you.” Was I panting? Dammit, I was such a mess and I needed relief. “The vampire can stay, and you stay too, Alderic.”

“Vampire?” Alderic looked at me askew.

Casimir crawled onto the bed, his predatory gaze on me. “Yes, now—”

“Now.” I grabbed him by the shoulder to hold at arm’s length. One touch was fire. Oh God. I looped my other arm through Alderic’s. Calm clarity… somewhat. I was war and peace at the same time. This was absolutely messed up. “I know I need an Alpha, but I don’t trust myself with all your…” I patted Casimir and couldn’t contain a whimper. “Your Alpha-ness. Now with your Beta-ness,” I turned to Alderic. “I retain some of myself. I’m not a weak little Omega.”

“Definitely not weak.” Casimir smirked at that and took my hand in his to kiss the back of it, nipping at a knuckle. “You are a warrior.”

I was mush. I had lost the battle.

Swiftly I pressed my forehead to Alderic’s and lightly kissed him. “Please help me. Please stay.”

“I wasn’t going anywhere.” If I was mush, Alderic made my squishy self quiver with so many emotions at his whispered words. He had dared an Alpha’s wrath to defend me. Just like back at Tiergan’s parents’ house, he made sure I was safe and taken care of then as well in the face of three Alphas. I’d just met him this week, but already he seemed like we’d been dating for years. He got me like so few people ever had.

We kissed, slow and tender. So very unlike the fiery mouth making its way up my arm.

I tugged at Alderic’s shirt. “Take it off.”

As he did that, I tilted my head and bent forward to meet Casimir as he kissed my shoulder. No gentle meeting of the mouths with him. Hard and dominating, he bulldozed me onto my back on the bed. My fingers traced over his ripped torso and squeezed the bulge in his pants.

Casimir growled and plunged a hand between my legs. His fingers slid through my drenched labia, and my hips bucked as I gasped.

“Make her come.” Alderic reclined beside me on the opposite side and groped one of my breasts. The rosy nipple crinkled further, and I turned my head to kiss him. The sweetness was gone and a new fever gripped him, matching mine.

Casimir didn’t need anyone to tell him what to do. His middle digit drove into me as he rubbed my clit. I could hear my sloppy wetness over my thundering heart. The pain sang, but it was accompanied by something more, something that was building fast.

“Don’t stop!” I swept my right hand over Casimir’s head as he nibbled on my neck.

My tongue twined with Alderic’s as I explored his body with my left hand. Sexy hairless chest, defined abs, and oh yes, the tip of his erection sticking out the top of his gray joggers. I brushed my fingers over his cock’s head, and he sucked in a breath each time. Pre-cum made my fingers sticky and my pussy hotter.

Casimir added a second finger, and I cried out against Alderic’s mouth. Alderic hooked my left leg and Casimir laid on the other. I was trapped between them. Gloriously and enthusiastically trapped.

“Oh God!” I screamed and dug my nails into each of their arms. My orgasm slammed into me and sent me spinning. Slick gushed out and covered Casimir’s arm. The climax kept going and his hand kept pumping.

Only when I started to come down from my climatic high did I feel both their mouths on my breasts. This was a dream. My fucking hot erotic fantasy.

Yet even though I’d come, the ache wasn’t gone. “More.”

I wiggled out from under them, sharing kisses with each of them. My body hollered for me to knotted, but I wasn’t ready. I wanted more control when I finally gave myself to someone. And even if that person was eventually Casimir, I didn’t want to choose between the two of them at the moment.

Thankfully he seemed to understand. He moved me closer to the edge of the bed as he stood up. “Fournier, on your back. This warrior queen is going to ride your face.”

Oh fuck, yes!

Alderic kissed me deeply once more and grinned hungrily. “It’s my pleasure to eat your sweet pussy, ma chérie.”

“If you eat pussy like you speak French, it will certainly be my pleasure.” We giggled, quiet and sensual, and he turned to lie on his back with his head near the edge of the king sized bed. I carefully straddled his head with my shaky legs as he caressed them and kneaded my ass. Seeing this gorgeous Beta between my legs looking up at me with pure desire and awe sent a flush through my body, one not from my recent orgasm.

Casimir cupped my chin and forced my attention to him as he moved to stand in front of me. “You are so beautiful.”

Emotions swirled through me at his gruff earnestness. I stared up at him with aroused wonder. Fuck, I was so lucky to be compatible with an Alpha that was as hot as him. Not just hunky, but his consideration of what I wanted. He was a gentleman except when he wasn’t. Like now.

“All the better to tempt you with.” I waggled my brows and suddenly gasped as Alderic lapped at my vulva.

Casimir chuckled and continued to cup my chin as he removed his big erection from his pants. Holding my head still, he ran his cock’s head over my bottom lip. Slow one way, and back again with the same speed. The musky amber and leather scent of him engulfed me. I slipped my tongue out to swipe over the tip and collect his sweet pre-cum.

“That’s right. Suck my cock.” He groaned and let go of my face to sweep my hair back. “My little vampire slayer.”

Oh, I liked that. I enveloped the head of his dick with my mouth and suckled it, slowly taking him deeper. His lusty gaze never left me.

Below me, Alderic spread my labia and thrust his tongue into me. My cry vibrated along Casimir’s cock and drew out a deep groan. I teased his sac as I took as much of him into my mouth as I could. So big and throbbing, he nearly had me gagging.

My hips started to rock as Alderic feasted on my pussy. He alternated between plunging his tongue into me and sucking my hyper-sensitive clit. I could barely concentrate on my ministrations of Casimir’s erection, but both of them seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the moment.

Wrapping a hand around Casimir’s shaft, I corkscrewed my strokes as I bobbed my head. The weight of his hand holding my hair wasn’t forcing me to any pace, but it was a reminder he was in control. As much as I usually rebelled against authority, this was fucking sexy. He had me right where he wanted me and that thrilled me even more.

“Yes, fuck, Kienna.” Casimir growled and kneaded one of my breasts in his free hand. “Faster.”

I sucked him harder and faster. His dick swelled and threatened to unload. My own climax was quickly building as well.

Taking Casimir as far as I could into my mouth, three more jerks and he cried out. Thick semen filled my mouth and I swallowed, drinking back more and more. He pulled out from between my lips. Cum draped over my chin and continued to shoot onto my neck and chest.

Some of the pain uncoiled but none of the pleasure. I let go of Casimir’s cock and bridged my body backward. I balanced on one hand and reached into Alderic’s joggers to grasp his hard dick. He muffled a cry into my pussy as I started to stroke him.

Casimir leaned forward, the last of his seed painting my breasts. He circled one of my nipples with his cock head and caressed my cheek. “Come for us. Come all over his face.”

My body shook even before my orgasm hit me. And when it did, I screamed so loud, I probably scared everyone in the hotel. I nearly toppled over, but Casimir grabbed me around the waist so I kept balanced over Alderic’s head.

Not ten seconds after I came, Alderic exploded. His hot cum coated my hand as I milked every drop from him.

Both of them worked together to tenderly ease me off Alderic and lay me on the bed. Casimir fetched a wet cloth and a towel from the bathroom. I moaned softly as he cleaned me and dried me, and Alderic snuggled to my side. My body was a trembling jelly, feeling warm and euphoric.

The problem was that the pain hadn’t fully left me. In fact, as I came down from my orgasm, it started to return with more insistence.

Fuck. It was going to take a knot to make it go away.

And I didn’t know if I was ready to let anyone take my virginity.
