“What did you do to him?” I ask dryly, folding my arms to stop myself shaking because holy shit, do my alphas smell good.
One hard sniff and my knees are shaking as Timber’s dark gaze snaps to mine.
“Get over here, omega! I need you,” he snarls.
If I had two buttons and one has ‘getting away from Timber when he’s obviously in rut so he doesn’t feel like I’ve betrayed him by using my heat to ride that knot’ and the other is ‘Timber calling me omega when I’m in preheat,’ I know which side I’m slamming like a whack-a-mole.
I let myself tip sideways so I’m leaning against the wall next to the security box and not running straight to him.
Kane looks like he’s struggling, but I can’t help when my goddamn pussy fondue is getting stirred up.
If Kane just loosens those red scarves he’s got looped around Timber, my alpha could barrel into me, and we both know how good his floors are for fucking.
Though if we’re getting hot and heavy for real, I want a mattress and muscles under my ass before it starts bouncing.
“Omega!” he roars before he hurls himself forward. Kane has to rock back, the scarves cutting into Timber’s neck as Kane uses his weight to stop him.
My eyes flutter as his scent wafts in. They are at least ten feet away. Kane is big, but he’s not Timber-sized, and he’s already being dragged toward me.
I mean, if I just stayed here and waited for them, it wouldn’ttechnicallybe my fault if Timber went for me, right?
Kane gives up fighting him and instead jockeys Timber as he frog-marches him into the living room.
Even just an inch closer has me wired, and Timber is rasping and wheezing as Kane grits his teeth.
“Omega!” Timber snarls, and my whole body pulses. For someone who spent most of their life doing everything I could to be gender and designation neutral, I’ve been doing a seriously poor job recently. And seeing Timber like this is the final straw.
I gasp as another shot of pain burns through me, nearly doubling over as I fall back against the wall.
Timber gives another growl, but Kane cuts him off with a sexy snarl. Watching Kane tug on the scarves and keep Timber down is so freaking hot that raw desire pulses through me, signaling another wave of cramps.
“Ollie, how close are you?” Kane asks, and I roll my eyes.
“It depends on what you’re planning. If you bring Timber here, we can get started right away,” I say with a strained breath. I press my hands to my stomach, and he just grins back.
I try to straighten up, but the pain twists harder inside me the longer we dawdle.
My gaze just happens to land on Timber’s crotch, with his fly open and a brush of dark pubes, and a groan falls from me.
“Oh, that?” Kane chuckles as he catches me looking. “Yeah, I had to jerk him off to keep him calm, but it didn’t work for long!”
“Ollie,” Timber gasps. “I need to fuck you. Come here. Don’t make your alpha wait.”
“Oh my God,” I choke out as heat floods me. I press against the wall as Kane walks him past, but Timber lunges for me.
With nowhere to go, I suck in a breath, excitement buzzing through me. I’m mostly hoping he’ll crush me against the wall again.
Need tremors as he draws close. Even with hazy eyes and his alpha side taking him over, Timber’s still in there.
“I thought you’d like that,” Kane chuckles as he changes positions so he’s dragging Timber further into the house.
“Let me go! Get the fuck off me! Ollie!” he shouts over his shoulder. “I need you! Now!”
I’d been with loads of alphas in ruts; I knew how they were. It shouldn’t be a surprise to see Timber like this. But the alphas I’ve been with could at least make decisions, albeit horny ones.
“What’s wrong with him?” I ask because he’s thrashing around like an animal caught in a trap.
“I honestly don’t know. I’ve never seen him in rut before. I know some alphas go psycho, but he was like this when I found him.”
