“I’m not sorry I’m vocal in bed. I like what I like. Why hold back?”

“Because it got us kicked out! There are no other inns around. We’re going to have to get a room in the next town over.”

“What? No!” Lexi rushes out. “That's too far.”

“Yeah, that's way too far. I need access to my Omegas. Do you want me to go out of my mind?” I growl.

“Well, then we sleep in the car,” Aiden sighs.

“Why don’t you just stay with us?” Lexi looks to Emmett. Emmett nods.

“I’m cool with it.” He shrugs.

“Fuck, yeah.” My face hurts from the wide smile stretching my lips. “Packing up, baby.”

“We can’t.” Aiden looks at Lexi. “That’s too much.”

“Why?”

“I don’t want to overwhelm you. Things have been going amazingly, but also extremely fast. Are you sure it wouldn’t be too much too soon?”

“Honestly, the idea of you two being so far away has me freaking out more than the idea of you moving in.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yeah.” She smiles softly, taking Aiden’s hand. “I’m sure.”

As we pull away from the inn and leave Widows Peak, I’m on cloud fucking nine.

I thought I knew what it was like to live life, what happiness felt like. Yes, Aiden was enough for me. But now that I have these two? I can't imagine my life without them. All three of them are mine, and I’ll do whatever it takes to keep them.

In Aiden’s and my line of work, getting free downtime like this is nearly impossible. I can’t remember the last time we just got to go out and have fun.

Coming to Widows Peak was exactly what we needed. It’s been an adjustment from the city life we’re used to, but the longer I stay here, the more it’s growing on me.

“I’ve never asked you guys, but how long do you plan on staying in Widows Peak?” Lexi asks as we leave the movie theater.

So far we’ve gone to lunch and seen an early movie. Now our plan is to go play laser tag, do a bit of shopping, and then head back home before it gets dark.

Aiden looks at me, and I shrug. “Forever?”

“What?” She gives a shocked laugh. “But you can’t.”

“Why not?” I frown.

“What about your life? Your job?”

“Our job was our life. We had each other and the guys on our team, but that's about it. We wouldn’t really be leaving anything behind. We can easily have our things shipped to us. As for our job, that is something we’ll have to talk to our team about. I’m sure they’re looking into options, too, considering their Omega also lives in Widows Peak.”

We haven’t heard much from Harlan and the others since we arrived in town. We might be on the same team, but each pack does its own thing. Sure, we hang out sometimes during our downtime, but for the most part, we only see each other on jobs.

It’s not unusual for us to go radio silent sometimes.

I’m sure they’re diving headfirst into snatching up their Omega like we are. When you spend well over ten years invested in a person, it only makes sense.

“You’d be okay with that?” she asks, stopping on the sidewalk outside the theater. “Dropping everything to move here?”

“Why not?” Aiden asks. “If our family is here, it makes sense for us to be here too. We would never dream of asking you to leave Widows Peak. It’s your home.”
