An alpha snarls at Dev, trying to edge around him. We’ll be surrounded if we don’t get clear now, and then we’ll have to fight our way out. Making a snap decision, I scoop Harper up into my arms and start shouldering through the crowd. Ace follows, snarling at anyone who reaches out.
We push our way out of the ballroom, and I break into a run. The valet I handed my keys to stares at us as we burst through the doors, retracing our steps.
“Where’s our truck?” I bark at him. He raises a trembling hand, pointing to the parking area as Ace rips the keys from his fingers.
His half-hearted offer to go and get it falls away as we sprint into the darkened lot. Ace hits the button and the truck lights up.
We throw ourselves in, Ace sliding into the driving seat as I pull myself into the backseat, Harper breaking apart in my arms.
“Go!” I order and our tires spin as Ace shoots out of the lot like the hounds of hell are after him.
Harper’s scent fills the space around us and I curse. She’s incoherent, moans falling from her lips as she throws her head back, hips pumping.
Her need calls to all of us, and Ace curses as the van swerves slightly.
“Keep it together,” I snap hoarsely.
Christ, it’s so fucking strong. Is this a full heat? My mind becomes clouded as her need claws at my insides, raking up and down. My cock is rock hard and leaking pre-cum in a steady flow, my trousers dampening as we speed towards the house. We’re a good twenty minutes away still, and Harper whines, an edge of pain in her throat. She needs soothing now.
“Fuck.” I pull her up onto my lap. “Devlin,” I snap. He’s clutching the arm of his seat, fists clenching so hard the plastic is cracking. His head snaps up to me before moving to Harper and softening. He slides off his seat, pulling himself forward and starting to undo his trousers.
Gabe’s eyes widen. “But—,” he starts.
“She’s in pain,” I whip back at him, yanking Harper’s dress up until her bare pussy gleams in the moonlight through the window. She moans again and her slick pours from her. Dev inhales, his nostrils flaring and a growl pulled from deep in his chest.“Need.”
“Now, Devlin,” I snap. I’d do it in a heartbeat, but I need to try and keep it together for the pack.
Using my knees, I push her legs wider and Dev buries his head between her creamy thighs. Harper cries out at his touch, her spicy scent deepening as she bucks her hips wildly. Devlin grabs her hands and holds her still as he lashes her frantically with his tongue, dipping in and out of her clenching core until she trembles and comes in a gush. Dev pulls back, his face glistening with her juices and his face ravaged with want as we wait to see if she’s eased.
Within seconds, she’s struggling in my arms again. Her eyes flicker open and she searches wildly until I turn her head and her eyes land on me. Her pupils are so wide I can barely see any amber at all.
“It hurts,” she whimpers. “Help me.”
“We’ve got you, love.”
Devlin has his cock in his hand, smearing fluids as he jerks it up and down. Grabbing Harper behind her knees, he slides her body forward and impales her with one thrust as she throws her head back in a needy wail. Her head lands between my thighs and I reach down, stroking her cheeks gently as Devlin pumps into her with a frantic rhythm.
Wordless cries of pleasure fall from her lips. Her hand grabs onto my thigh and she buries her face in it as Devlin rocks, not slowing his pace.
“So, fucking, tight,” he curses. “Clenching me like a fucking glove, princess.”
Harper whines at his words. Gabe leans in from my other side and puts his fingers to her clit, rubbing it in fast circles as Harper screams out in pleasure.
“That’s it, sweetheart,” Gabe murmurs to her. “Doing so good. Such a good omega.”
Devlin shouts as Harper twists, slick flowing out of her as she whimpers through a second orgasm. Pushing forward, Devlin’s knot slides into her, the wet sound sending waves of need down my spine as they lock into place, bodies completely connected. I swallow, hard.
Ace is holding up like a trooper in the front, breaking all kinds of speed limits as he whips the van through our gates and pulls to a stop outside. He throws the door open, chucking himself out. I can hear him breathing heavily as he inhales deep gulps of fresh air.
Harper’s scent finally starts to soften, and we all slump with relief. Carefully, I lift her shoulders and Dev wraps his arms around her, dragging her so her front is pressed against his chest. Her head lolls sleepily as she murmurs his name, nuzzling into his neck.
Dev carefully climbs down, Harper wrapped around him like a bow with his knot still deep inside her. He slowly moves to the door, Ace unlocking it and flicking lights on.
Gabe moves past me and shoots straight to Ace, locking him into a deep kiss as he presses his lower half into him. They stumble back and disappear.
Sighing, I throw my head back against the car seat.
What a fucking shit show.
