Is that all I needed to do? If I had just had a short conversation about my feelings with the guys, would that have been enough to stop all this unnecessary drama that had sprouted between us?

“I promise,” Kain’s brilliant blue eyes filled with fiery determination. “If what you need is for none of us to ever wear a fanny pack again. That is what we will do. No one in this pack will ever eventhinkof touching a fanny pack if it bothers you.”

I sniffed. Determined not to start crying again… unless they were happy tears. Those were okay, I guess.

What was finding love compared to having to deal with having a stupid name? Obviously, love should win out.

“Anything my darling girl needs.” Kain continued, grasping my hands and squeezing reassuringly. “Well, we don’t have to exactly follow tradition. We can take on Brutus’ name if that makes you more comfortable.”

“No.” I said too quickly. “I mean, you don’t have to do that.”

Really.

Don’t do that.

I was rubbing my forehead… this meeting wasn’t going at all how I pictured it. Everything that I thought was going to happen was going wrong. Not all of them liked the flowers… theyhadn’t even listened to my speech. Did it make sense to even recite the whole thing now?

“I just want you to know that I’m sorry for hurting you.” It wasn’t anything close to my full speech. Even that hadn’t felt like enough. Originally, I was going to make a PowerPoint presentation with a multi-step apology plan… but ultimately I managed to get to the heart of what I’d wanted to say (though obviously it would be more thorough with the power point. I’d even picked out the color scheme and everything).

“There’s nothing to forgive.” Kain shook his head. “You needed to be sure, and there’s nothing wrong with that.”

Well, Kain was sweet, though a bit misguided. Ihadput them through unnecessary pain. But if he was going to forgive me, I wasn’t about to complain.

I brushed my fingertips along his cheeks, just above his rugged jawline, as I looked into the depths of his ocean eyes. “I love you.”

A grin spread across Kain’s handsome features. He leaned his forehead against mine, shutting his eyes like he was basking in my presence. “I love you too.”

I felt floaty and giddy, like I’d turned into a bottle of soda that had gotten tossed around, and if anyone opened me up right now, I would explode. This was everything I’d ever wanted and—

Our romantic moment was interrupted, as Sabien approached, eyes on me and completely ignoring his brother as he pulled me into his arms.

Well that was kind of rude, could he not read the room?

Or was this jealousy since I’d admitted my feelings for his brother? I mean I loved them all… but he needed to give me a minute. If I went up to each of my alphas one by one to say the words, that felt like it cheapened the moment.

“Well, if you still want to make things up to us,” there was no mistaking the hunger in Sabien’s eyes, “I can think of something.”

“Absolutely the fuck not.” Brutus rose out of his leather chair, walking toward Sabien like a predator. He towered over Sabien, grabbing his chin and forcing him to meet the burning heat in his dark eyes. “I’ve let you get away with too much. That ends now.” Brutus was looking at Sabien like he was a cut of prime rib and he was dying to get a taste. “You, me and our Baby girl. In my room.”

CHAPTER 36

CHLOE

So that’show I found myself once again, legs spread on Brutus’ pristine black sheets.

Sabien was in between my thighs, rubbing circles around my clit that were slowly and steadily pushing me to the edge. I was almost seeing stars, panting and out of control, when Sabien stopped. All of a sudden he was groaning, and barely able to hold himself up on the bed.

Brutus grabbed Sabien by the neck and brought him face to face with the anger etched on to his features. “Did I tell you that you could stop pleasuring our omega?”

“No.” Sabien was breathless, sounding nothing like the confident alpha I knew. It seemed like everyone melted into butter when faced with the Brutus’ primal dominance.

Brutus pulled Sabien closer, kissing him passionately in a heated kiss, grabbing his ass hard enough to bruise. It was possessive and wild, and I felt myself getting wetter as Brutus started stroking and teasing Sabien’s hole.

Brutus broke off the kiss, maneuvering Sabien back on top of me. “Then pleasure her,” he growled in his deep voice that had Sabien shuddering.

Then Sabien brought his lips down to mine, kissing mehard. He took my mouth deeply, as he pressed his strong body against mine, touching every part of me. He cupped my breasts, pinching lightly at my nipples until I was losing my mind.

I called out his name, desperate. Writhing beneath him, as his hands once again began to tease my entrance. Starting a rhythm that was making me lose sense of everything but the friction, the pressure right there where I needed it. He circled my clit until I whimpered, grasping the sheets in a white-knuckled grip… just needing something to hold on to. Because the way that the pressure was building in my core was threatening to make me lose every shred of myself.
