I look over at the Omega in question. Aiden told me about Emmett’s request when it came to his heat. I’m fucking thrilled he wants to spend it with us.

I may have gotten the keys to the cabin from Lexi before we left the other night and stashed some supplies up there.

I also happened to take a peek at his nest and saw a hoodie that looks a lot like something Lexi would wear, not him. Seems like my Omega likes to steal her things.

So, I took off the hoodie I was wearing and added it to his nest. He might kill me for it, but the idea of his nest smelling like me, too, when he gets up there, was too tempting.

“We can leave at any time. We don’t have to do anything you don’t feel comfortable with.”

“Okay,” she agrees. “Yeah, I think it could be fun. I love Widows Peak, but it doesn’t have a whole lot to do.”

“How about the movies? Maybe an arcade? Oh!” I grin. “Laser tag?”

Lexi’s eyes sparkle with interest, and I know I’ve convinced her. “I’ve never done any of that.”

“What? Really?” I look at Emmett.

He raises his hands. “Hey, I’ve asked her before, but she wasn’t comfortable back then. Now we have you two. I’m glad she feels safer.”

“It’s not that.” Lexi looks at Emmett with a guilty look.

“I’m not mad.” He smiles reassuringly, cupping her cheek. “I’m only one man. I can hold my own, but I know the idea of two Omegas out in the wild was something you worried about.” He turns to look at me. “She doesn’t like it when I leave town either. But she’s gotten a lot better, and I’m so damn proud of you.” He smiles down at Lexi, who looks embarrassed.

“Must sound stupid and silly,” she mutters.

“Not at all.” I lean down and kiss her. “Your feelings are valid.”

“Ugh,” she sighs. “Stop being so perfect. First, Emmett, now you too. Are you sure you’re not a robot?"

“Pretty sure. Robots can’t cum. And we both know I can.” I wink.

“Oh my god.” She giggles, and god the sound is amazing.

It’s not until we’re getting into the truck that Lexi asks where Aiden is.

“We have to go pick him up.”

“Why didn’t he come with you?” she asks as I pull out of her driveway.

“Because he was taking too long and I needed my Omega fix.” I grin in the rearview mirror.

“Smooth,” Emmett chuckles.

“I thought so.” I grin over to him. He laughs and shakes his head.

When we get to the inn, a very angry Aiden is waiting outside. My brows furrow when I see our suitcases in his hands.

“Why do you have those?" I ask when he opens the door and puts the bags in the back next to Lexi before rounding the truck to the other side.

“Because we no longer have a place to stay.” He glares at me once he is in the truck.

“What? Why?” Lexi asks.

“We were kicked out. I guess they’ve been getting noise complaints.”

My eyes widen, and I can’t hold in the smug grin that takes over my face. “Oh, yeah. What kind?”

“You know damn well what kind. I should be gagging you. This is all your fault.”
