Meeting Robin helped me start to find my way back.
Today, I got there. Everything crystalized.
It doesn’t matter what job I do, as long as it’s for my mates.
To keep them safe and warm. To keep us together as a pack.
That’s what I needed. I was trying too hard to find something perfect, and it was never about the perfect career. That’s why I kept failing. And those failures drove me away from my mates.
They made it feel like I wasn’t the lead Alpha they needed.
And I didn’t know how to become that guy.
It felt like an impossible problem.
But nothing is impossible. Not when you’re true to who you are.
I know that now, and I won’t let anything make me doubt it again.
Shayne walked into my life when I had no one, and he would do anything for me, even after everything I put him through. He deserves more than I’ve given him. He always has and he always will.
I lean in close to where I marked his throat, and I slow my thrusting down.
He’s already come all over himself. I know which of his moans are final, and he lost it when my knot swelled for the second time. It’s been a few minutes, and I know this could last all night if I don’t pay attention to what he needs. It’s about damn time I listened to everything he says.
“Are you ready to come for me again, or are we done for the night?”
He was exhausted before we started, so it wouldn’t be fair not to ask.
He lifts his head and moans softly. “I’m getting hard again. Don’t stop. You can come as much as you want. I need you inside me.”
“Good, because I could do this all night.”
“Fucking hell,” Harper whispers beside me.
I sit up and turn my head to look at my Omega.
He licks his lips, and I give him a smile.
“Jay, take care of Harper for me.”
“Don’t worry, I was planning on it,” Jay assures me, before he leans forward and lifts Harper onto his lap. I watch as he sinks his fingers into Harper’s ass. His slick makes penetration easy, but I don’t expect to see all of Jay’s thick fingers push inside.
My heart skips a beat as Harper makes a deep moaning sound that I’ve never heard him make before. He shakes as Jay thrusts his arm up there, going wrist deep.
“Fucking hell,” I murmur, thrusting into Shayne as I watch.
Jay glances over and smiles. “It’s new, but Harper’s into it.”
“I can tell.”
Harper’s head falls back as he comes, moaning so loudly the whole floor probably heard it.
Hell, the room feels like it’s vibrating from that damn moan.
And the scent of Harper’s perfume is suddenly extra thick.
My knot swells a little more, and Shayne groans.
