I quirk a tired grin at him, sinking into the familiar comfort of his warm hazel eyes.

“I don’t know how to do this,” I whisper.

“Me either,” he replies. “None of us expected any of it. But we’ll be okay.”

I nod, trying to believe him. Hoping he’s right.

When Aury gets back with the food, I raise my eyebrows at his choices.

“Pumpkin pie?”

He shrugs. “It was on sale when I put in the grocery order. Thought she might like it.”

I hold the plate, but pass the fork to Jayce. “I have a feeling she’s more inclined to take it from you than me right now.”

I’m tempted to start a little pity party, but that’s not what any of us needs. Jayce nods and sits up, pulling Siobhan with him. He scent marks her shoulder—the one I wiped—then her cheek, chin, nose, temple, rubbing himself all over her until she giggles.

It’s a sound I’ve never heard before, and we all freeze, staring at her.

She blinks, peering up at him, and I slump when I see her eyes are unfocused. We’re on day three, and I was hoping she’d pull out of it soon. While it’s been fun, it’s also been stressful.

And I miss her.

“Need you to eat for me, pretty omega,” Jayce rumbles.

She wrinkles her nose, but doesn’t turn away. That’s better than when I tried yesterday.

“Open,” he says, tapping her pouty mouth with one finger.

She scrunches her lips together, but then closes her eyes and jerks her mouth open, like she’s bracing for something terrible.

Jayce slips the small bite into her mouth, and she jerks away, spluttering and swiping her the back of her hand against her mouth.

“No. Ew. Doesn’t taste like you. No.”

“Doesn’t taste like…”A lightbulb goes off in my head. “Perfect omega,” I purr, and she turns to me, her narrowed eyes heating at my tone. “If your alpha comes on the pie, will you eat it?”

She frowns, her eyebrows drawing together as she pieces together what I said. Aury chokes on the slice he was inhaling, and I pinch my lips together to avoid laughing. Siobhan is giving it serious thought, though.

“I get his cum?” she says, blue eyes gazing suspiciously up at me.

I nod. “You can have it all, but only with your pie. Unless you’d rather have it on…” I turn to Aury, looking for what else he brought. “A protein bar?” ‘Seriously?’ I mouth at him, and he shrugs.

“Pie,” she says, bouncing up and down on Jayce’s lap. Then she grins, a little too wide for my liking, and I eye her. “Cum pie.”

“Jesus Christ,” Aury huffs. “Just when I thought things couldn’t get any weirder.”

“Hush,” I admonish him. If this is what gets her to eat, I’ll gladly facilitate. “Alright Jayce,” I say, grinning at him. “You’re up.”

He balks, mouth dropping open, then looks back at Siobhan. He cuddles her closer and whispers in her ear.

“Pretty omega, whose cum do you want? Doesn’t Hayden look needy? Or maybe Aury? I bet their cum would taste delicious on a nice thick slice of pie.”

Aury’s lips twist and he slowly sets down his pie, looking at it with a confused expression of mournful disgust.

“All!” Siobhan straightens, then slides off Jayce’s lap while he gapes at her. “All the cum. Mine.”

“You want…” Jayce says, and I can’t help but laugh. So much for him trying to get out of it.
