I stretched my arms, settling them behind his neck. My head felt clearer, and the realization of where we were hit me again. I pulled back, meeting his gaze. “I can’t believe you fucked me in this alley.”

“Don’t pretend you’re surprised. If I have my way, I’ll fuck you everywhere and anywhere for the rest of time.”

“Only you can make that sound romantic,” I said with a grin.

Bear ran his hands up and down my ass and then cupped my pussy, his touch careful and soothing. “Sore?”

“A bit.” I didn’t mind the soreness. It was a reminder of my alpha being inside me, and I fucking loved it.

“I’ll take care of you when we get back to the house. Get you a bath and snacks,” he said, pressing his smile against my cheek.

“Mmm, yes, I want that. But we can’t leave without funnel cake.”

“Alright, baby, let’s get you that funnel cake.”

Bear took my hand, entwining his fingers with mine, and headed to the entrance of the alley.

My heart stuttered when I saw three large figures until I realized who they were.

“Well, this is sneaky.” I grinned at Gray, Liam, and Henry.

“Couldn’t risk anyone else seeing you,” Bear said, squeezing my hand.

“I’m not sure fucking in an alley counts as an emergency,” Henry said, rolling his eyes.

“Felt like an emergency to me,” Bear said with a wink. “Besides, couldn’t let Liam be the only one to have some fun.”

I huffed as Gray pulled me into his arms. “You look well-fucked, princess.”

Liam pressed against my back. “How’re you feeling?”

“I feel like I need funnel cake, stat,” I said, leaning back into his chest. Exhaustion seeped into my limbs and a slow, throbbing pain was starting in my temple, but I wasn’t about to cut the night short.

“We can’t have our omega deprived of anything,” Henry said, tugging me out of Liam and Gray’s arms. I stumbled against his chest with a breathless laugh. Henry grasped my hand and led the way to the nearest funnel cake stand. The smell wafted through the air, and I wished I could bottle it up and take it home with me.

“Why don’t you go sit at that picnic table and I’ll grab the funnel cakes?” Henry suggested.

“Sounds good,” I said, leaning in to give him a kiss. As we parted, a wave of dizziness rushed through me, and my legs grew weak.

Shit shit shit.

“Let’s grab some drinks,” Bear said, grasping Gray’s shoulder.

The two of them headed over to a lemonade booth and Liam put his arm around my shoulders as we headed to the picnic table.

I sat down and had to hold in a whimper as a sharp pain radiated down my neck. Nausea rolled through my stomach, and the thought of eating anything suddenly lost its appeal. I leaned against Liam, trying not to let on how I was feeling. I wanted to eat my dessert and have fun with my guys, and now my body would ruin the night.

Liam ran his hands through my hair, gently massaging my neck. “You doing alright, sweetheart?”

“Yeah.” I leaned into his touch and took hits of his scent to calm me down. “Just a little tired.”

Maybe this would all pass in a moment and I would feel better.

Liam hummed and pulled me closer to his body.

I had no idea how much time had passed when Henry sat down next to me, placing two massive funnel cakes on the table.

“Here you go, gorgeous,” he said, kissing my cheek.
