Laz pokes his head around the door, giving me a waft of his delicious cinnamon-y goodness. The bulge in his pants tells me he’s turned-on, making my heat bubble up again despite my satisfied state.
“You’re still knotted?” Laz groans. “Fuck, it smells incredible.”
Sometimes, it can take up to an hour for an alpha’s knot to deflate. It’s supposed to support bonding while also providing the comfort that an omega needs and giving the alpha some time to recover.
Cole hovers behind Laz. “Did Ren take good care of you, little omega?”
“Yes.” I snuggle into my anchoring alpha. “He took great care of me.” Ren grins with pride. “Such a good knot.”
“She couldn’t wait to get undressed,” Ren chuckles, reminding me that I’m still wearing my sundress.
“I almost started rutting into a blanket while listening to her moan from downstairs.” Laz scrubs a hand down his face.
As Ren’s knot shrinks, my desire to be filled completely again builds.
“She’ll need more knots soon,” Ren reads my mind.
“Why don’t I help you get cleaned up, little omega?” Cole offers. “Then Laz can make you something to eat so you can keep your strength up.”
“Do I have to?” I whine, wanting to stay pressed into Ren’s chest forever.
“Cole’s right, baby.” Ren tenderly cups my cheek. “Remember, this is only the beginning; heats can last for a few days. It’s our job to look after you.”
“Fine.” I pout begrudgingly as Ren pulls out of me. Although there’s still a burning need between my legs, my heart has never felt fuller. “But only if you give me more knots.”
“That we can definitely do,” Cole promises. “Now I’ll run you a nice bubble bath. Does that sound good?”
Hell yeah, it does.
The Silverwoods have given me everything my body craves so far, and I can’t wait to see how else they’re going to surprise me.
TWENTY-THREE
Faye
“Your bath’s ready, little omega.” Cole leans on the doorway, his muscly arm propped against its frame. A small smile plays on his lips at seeing me and Ren embraced.
“I’ll be here when you’re done,” Ren promises as he slips out, planting a kiss on my forehead.
“We’re gonna need fresh sheets,” Standing, I motion to the bed, feeling self-conscious when I realize they’re completely covered in my slick. How is it possible I’ve produced so much?
“Don’t worry about that, little omega,” Cole replies. “We have plenty.”
“Laz and I will sort it.” Ren’s eyes sparkle.
“Make sure you refuel, Ren,” Cole reminds him. “You need to keep your strength up. Faye needs you to stay strong too.”
As Ren nods and practically skips out, I admire how well Cole looks after all the alphas in his pack. He definitely puts their needs above his own. Most pack leaders wouldn’t let another alpha knot their omega first, but he didn’t seem to have any problem with letting us share that special moment together.
“You always look after everyone,” I vocalize my inner thoughts.
“That’s my job,” Cole replies matter-of-factly. “And now that it’s also my job to look after you, I need you to hurry and get in the tub before the water gets cold.”
I do a double take when I enter the nest bathroom for the first time, finding what looks like a freaking spa. The floor is covered in a mosaic of black and white tiles surrounded by dusty-pink walls and a huge copper bath filled to the brim with sparkly bubbles. In addition to the bath, there’s a mammoth walk-in shower that’d fit me and at least two alphas. On the far wall, a circular window looks out over the frosty mountains, and candles flicker on every ledge, making the room feel even cozier.
“I’ll look away when you get in.” Being the gentleman that he is, Cole turns his back.
I unzip my dress and let it fall then step into the bubbles and sink down into their warmth. I let out a moan of pleasure as my muscles instantly loosen.
