“I don’t know what to do. I’ve never been part of a heat. I don’t even have any omega sisters,” I replied.
Ashton gave me a squeeze. “All we need to do is make sure Kai’s happy.”
“Which means knots, right?” I nodded. “I can do that.”
“I love how there’s a whole library of blankets,” Kai mused, selecting more.
Ashton kissed me. “We’ve got this.”
Finally, Kai fell backwards on the bed, face blissful. “Perfect.”
“Is it?” Taking off my shoes, I dive bombed the bed.
“Steven,” Kai laughed.
Ashton joined us and the two of us cuddled her on the mattress among all the blankets and pillows. She nestled into us.
“I’m going to take that nap now. Maybe take a bath later.” Her body was still warm. “Oh, I should let Auntie know I’m with you.”
“Yes, you should. We don’t need her hunting you down. Also, Starshine, I think you might be going into heat. Would you be okay spending it here with us?” Ashton asked tentatively, smoothing her hair.
Kai was on her phone and shot him a look, eyebrows raising. “I’m not going into heat. I’m on suppressants. I’m just a little sick.”
“Okay. But if you do… say because somehow finding your scent match caused a breakthrough heat even though you’re on suppressants, would you be okay with us? Is there anything you’d like or not like?” Ashton asked.
“I like the way you smell right now.” Kai buried her face in my neck. “I think I would like to spend my heat with you this summer. I like spicy sandwiches.”
“Me, too,” I agreed. “What do you do for birth control during your heats?”
“Oh, I have an implant. I know a lot of omegas don’t bother, because you don’t often get pregnant outside of heats. But because mine are irregular and I don’t needa dorm baby, I have one,” Kai explained, returning to texting.
Well, that was good to know.
“Okay. I texted Auntie. I also let my professor know I won’t be in class today or able to do research tomorrow, in case I’m still sick,” Kai said.
That gave us a couple of days.
“How long can you stay?” Kai laid her head on Ashton who was on his phone.
“As long as you need,” I assured.
“Forever?” Kai giggled.
I kissed her temple. “You can have us all off-season if you want.”
“Okay.” Kai nodded aggressively.
“Even after the off-season, too. We’re yours forever if you want us,” Ashton added.
“No take backs.” Kai gave us a smug look.
“No take backs,” I agreed, happiness shooting through me. “We’ll figure everything out. There might be a lot of planes in our future. But we’ll do it.”
Kai thought for a moment. “Promise?”
“We promise.” Ashton looked very happy.
Kai tugged on my arm, pulling me toward her.
