First of all, love the chat name. Makes us sound like simps.

Paxton

Which we are.

Mack

Exactly, sunshine twin.

Me

GUYS. Please. I’m begging you. Do what I asked and leave it outside of Posey’s door. And maybe leave a change of clothes out for me if you can, Pax.

Paxton

What’s going on, Park?Is Posey okay?

Me

She’s fine but I ran into her at the library and long story short she’s going through a heat spike or something. Trying to help her through it but didn’t want her first time to be in the fucking library archives.

Mack

You’re lucky I like you or I would be petty out of spite.

Paxton

For once I agree with the big guy.

Me

Just… please. We’ll be there in less than 10.

Posey whines, fingers clawing at my shirt like she’s trying to get it off. The longer she goes without an orgasm, the more hazy she gets. We need to get out of the library without any other alphas scenting her. It’s almost ten, so it should be relatively empty by now. I might lose my job for abandoning my post all night, but it would be worth it.

I grab the whimpering omega by the thighs and haul her up so she’s wrapped around me like she was when we came down here, only this time she licks my neck and almost makes me stumble. “No, omega.” The command is nearly a bark, and I instantly soften my tone. “Not here, please. Wait until we get home. You want your nest, don’t you?”

Her head pops up, pink hair flying everywhere as she nods wildly. I won’t tell her right now, but she looks so fucking pretty like this. With her flushed cheeks, bright eyes, messy hair and swollen lips, she looks like a goddess.

And I can’t wait to worship at her altar.

Just imagining her pink hair spread out on my navy sheets has me ready to go again. It’s a good thing my work pants are black or the fact that I came the second I tasted her perfect pussy would be really fucking obvious.

Campus is usually pretty quiet on a Wednesday night, so I’m not expecting to run into anyone on our way back to the Lighthouse. Which is why when a small redheaded omega and her pissed-off looking alpha jump out to block my path, I nearly shout in surprise and tuck Posey’s face back into my neck, immediately purring to keep her calm. My hand goes to the back of her head to hold her there in case there’s a problem. My instincts are riding me to keep her safe until we can get to her nest.

“Jesus fuck!” After a second, I recognize the alpha standing in front of me and raise my brows. “Ward. It’s good to see you and I’d love to stop and chat, but?—”

The omega follows when I try to sidestep the large alpha, letting out a truly pathetic sounding growl. “What the hell are you doing with my cousin? And why does she look like that?”

I look at the omega more closely and a lightbulb goes off when I remember what Posey told me in the library. “You’re the cousin. Maisie?”

She nods, wary but mildly appeased. “Listen, Posey went into a heat spike in the library and the longer we’re out here the less lucid she is. I’m not going to disrespect her privacy by saying too much more than that but I realized we needed to get out of there so we’re headed to the Lighthouse.”

“How do we know she even knows who you are? Or that she’s safe with you? Maybe we should just—” she reaches for my omega, and a growl unlike anything I’ve ever let out before escapes before I can pull it back. Ward grabs Maisie by the hips and drags her behind him, but doesn’t growl back. In fact, his hands go up in a placating gesture.

“Baby girl, her scent is all over him. Lily told you Posey went through a heat recently, and finding a scent match or compatible pack so soon after could throw her right into another one.”

My alpha is snarling in my mind, demanding we get our omega away from this other alpha. It doesn’tseem to matter that the bite mark on his neck clearly signals that he’s bonded. Hearing my omegas name in another alphas mouth is about to throw me into a rut. I finally manage to find my voice again after a few tense seconds. “I can give you my phone number and ask Posey to call you when she’s lucid so you know she’s safe and I didn’t take advantage of her. I swear she will be unharmed and unbonded when she does reach out.” I rub Posey’s back gently, trying to rouse her, but my purr must have lulled her to sleep.
