I closed the door behind me and walked to her bed. I snapped my fingers, wiping away the grime and blood from my fight with my magic. I could have done the same with Billie, but I felt she needed the shower to decompress.
I sat down on the edge of the bed, anxiously waiting for her to come out. Was I nervous? I didn’t do nervous, but Billie shook me. She challenged what I expected, and she excited me. I wanted her more than I could explain. It really would hurt if she rejected us. It might break me. But I would never say that out loud. I hadn’t realized until right then how much I ached to have this omega in my life. She was too perfect to let go.
I heard a knock at the door and found Ty standing there with a concerned look. “How is she?”
I shook my head. “She’s weak from the fight, and she’s fighting her heat. The real heat.”
“Yeah, that’s what we were thinking. We were in the garage…interrogating the captured demon. We can sense her all the way down there, man. Lance is really agitated. His torture methods are pretty intense. I think her scent is affecting him. Daniel’s a little off too.”
Unsurprising, we were all on edge. “How are you?”
Ty scratched his arm almost like a feign wanting his next fix. “I’m about to climb the walls. What’s she going to do? Think she’s going to give in or go to an omega center like she’s been saying she would?”
I shut my eyes, exhaling her scent. I was going to have to leave and jerk off if she didn’t come out soon. “I don’t know.”
Ty gave a pained look, and it saddened me to see my friend so hurt. “I thought she liked us.”
I lay back on the bed. “I think that’s the problem. Liking us scares her more.”
He looked at the door as if he was thinking about going in. If she came out and saw both of us in here, I was afraid she’d shut herself in.
“You should go. Let her do this slowly.”
Ty looked back to me as if just now recognizing that I said anything. He really was affected. “Yeah, okay. She likes you best. You’re probably the right one to ease her in.”
I put my hands behind my head, staring up at the ceiling. “She doesn’t like me best. She just liked me first.”
Ty didn’t speak as he walked away, closing the door behind him. I waited a while in hopes that she would come out soon. The shower was finally off, so I expected she was willing to open the door. Her clothes were outside the bathroom.
Several minutes later, I heard the door open. I sat up, watching her standing at the entrance with just a towel on. She looked like a scared lamb, but there was something beyond fear in her eyes. Desire.
I stayed completely still, waiting for her next move.
She took a hesitant step in my direction, eyes becoming less unsure. “I need you, Kai.” Her voice was barely a whisper.
Just the mention of my name from her mouth made my dick jerk. “I need you, too.”
She then dropped her towel and walked to me.

BILLIE
Iwas going to die. At least that’s how I felt. My skin was on fire, and I ached all over. If I didn’t give in and find release, I wouldn’t survive. I knew this and had come to accept it in my mind before today. However, when the time finally came, I was a bundle of nerves. I felt very much not like myself. Out of sorts. It terrified me. But this was why I was here. They were why I was here. I was as safe as I could possibly be. It was time to stop fighting.
Also, I was tired of feeling this horrible pain, and I wanted to give in to the burning desire igniting my core. Just seeing Kai lying on my bed, very visibly aroused, took all my energy not to pounce on him. Instead, I employed some shred of control that I had left to walk over to him and kiss him.
His lips were soft, and I couldn’t help myself as I sucked his lower lip between my own. He let out a hiss of pleasure, and I went on, wanting to make him feel good. I moved my lips to his earlobe and sucked it, bringing out a groan from him. I didn’t want to be slow, but I didn’t want to be selfish anymore either. I was shaking with need at this point, and I needed him to enjoy this as well. My fingers found his belt buckle, and I undid his pants before moving my hand inside his briefs.
He quickly placed his hands over mine. “Let me please you. I’m an incubus, I need to make you feel good.”
I shook my head. “You need the release, and I hate just taking from you guys. I want this to be equal.” I moved my lips to his neck and pulled gently on the delicate skin, flicking my tongue over the smoothness.
He inhaled and let out a shaky breath. “You don’t understand, Billie. I won’t be able to…release without you coming. It’s not in my nature. I draw strength from the act of giving.”
Ah, that made sense. “I’m sorry.” I moved away, sitting on the couch. Spreading my legs wide, I made a come-hither motion with my finger. A needy girl could still be playful.
Kai followed my direction, almost floating over, his eyes glued to me. He sat down beside me, and I touched his face again for another kiss. I slipped my tongue between his lips, swirling it with his own. The heat of his mouth making me throb. I soon felt his hand on my thigh, and my body responded immediately, dripping with need.
