Colton hummed in understanding. “Right.”
“Clue me in?” Ramsay asked.
Eric gestured while he spoke. “Even if all three of us--” He paused, his face going beet red. “Ejaculate… inside Matheson--”
Ramsay cut him off. “Dude, just say cum. You’re making it weird.”
“I’m sorry, but sayingthatis even weirder,” Eric protested, his ears as bright as his face now.
Colton finished Eric’s thought for him. “Even if we all cum inside Matheson, it won’t matter because the first sperm to reach him will likely be the one to fertilize his egg.”
Eric sighed at Colton’s matter-of-fact explanation. “Exactly. Only one sperm will reach the egg, which means only one of us will be the biological father. That doesn’t exactly jive with Noro’s explanation of the verse.”
But as Eric spoke, something stirred in me. Hearing that didn’t seem right, but I couldn’t figure out why. The strange pulse from earlier returned, thrumming below my chest, and as it quivered like a newly kindled spark, I felt myself endowed with an archaic knowledge--a sense ofknowingthat I couldn’t explain how or why I suddenly comprehended.
“It will work,” I said softly.
The alphas turned to look at me.
“What d’you mean?” Ramsay asked.
“I can’t explain it. I just know it will work,” I mumbled, touching my chest. It felt like cinders danced beneath my skin, but in a pleasant way.
“Matheson, I believe you,” Eric said seriously. I saw it in his eyes that he was speaking the truth. “But humor me for a second. What if it doesn’t?”
“It will,” I repeated. “But just to humor you… If it doesn’t work, then I’ll get pregnant by one of you.” I smiled. “And that would be fine with me, too.”
Ramsay laughed. “You guys are all crazy. I love it.”
With a shrug of his shoulders, Eric sighed. “Agreed. Then I suppose that settles it.”
Colton got up and stretched. “Well, what are we waiting for?”
“Dude, right now?” Ramsay asked incredulously.
“Why not?” I replied with a wink. “It’s not like we have anything better to do.”
I looped my arm around his, then teasingly brushed my palm over his cock. He bit back a yelp.
“You freakin’ tease,” he muttered.
“It’s not teasing.” I licked my lips. “It’s a promise.”
Ramsay shuddered, biting his lip. “Shit.” He grabbed my hips and pulled me closer. “If you’re not careful, I’ll leave the others behind and take you right here on the floor myself.”
I chuckled and kissed him hard until we were both breathless. I felt my cock already straining against my pants, and judging by the bulge in Ramsay’s pants, he wasn’t too far behind either.
“Will you two get up here already?” Eric complained at the top of the stairs. “We’re waiting.”
I slipped playfully out of Ramsay’s grip and slunk up the stairs. “C’mon. Let’s go make a baby.”
He bit his lip. “Don’t have to tell me twice…”
