After I come down from the intensity of everything, I find myself between my two mates, held tightly by both of them under the covers. I hum my satisfaction into Dom’s chest. “Mmm, I liked that.”
“I don’t think I can hit you.” His sad eyes tell me he thinks he’s failing me. That he won’t be able to sate me.
“I don’t want you to. I just want you to love me.” The truthful words are voiced easily. His lips find mine before the last word is fully spoken, kissing me with passion.
“Isn’t she perfect.” Caleb’s comment is a statement, not a question. I would smile, but my lips are being forced open by Dom’s tongue.
“She’s so goddamned perfect.” My eyes shoot open at Dom’s words and my heart pounds. I can hear his muted reply, yet his mouth is still on mine, his eyes closed in ecstasy. Even so, I heard him loud and clear. His eyes stay closed as he leans his body into mine. I shut my eyes quickly as Dom rolls me onto my back and settles between my legs. He pulls back, biting my bottom lip before kissing along my neck and nipping my collarbone. All the while I listen in on their silent conversation.
“I love the marks you leave on her.”
“Everyone who sees her will know she’s taken.”
“I feel like an asshole.” Caleb’s words are almost a whisper.
“Why?”
“She’s not healing because her wolf is hurting, yet I’m enjoying the marks.”
“Don’t think like that.” It’s quiet for a moment while Dom lies down beside me, pulling me back into his chest. Caleb kisses my shoulder and spoons me from behind while his hand runs along my tummy. Both of their erections dig into my flesh.
“You smell her heat?” My heat? Oh my God, I’m going to be in heat during the claiming. The thought makes my pussy clench and a small smile plays on my lips, but I bury it in Dom’s strong, hard chest.
“Just barely.”
“I can’t wait to knock her up.” My smile widens at Dom’s admission. I nuzzle my nose into his chest to hide it as he looks down at me and kisses my hair.
“You think our pups will be latent?” Dom’s question shocks me and my smile vanishes. Latent.
“Don’t know, I’ve never met a latent wolf before.” His words are easy, no judgment, no fear.
“She’ll love them just as much, won’t she?” And with those words, Dom melts my heart. His only concern is how I would react.
“Of course she will. Why wouldn’t she?”
“She thinks she’s less of a wolf because of it.” His words fuel me to push my body into his, wanting as much of him against me as possible. Tears prick again. Fucking tears. I wish I could just stop crying. At least these are happy tears.
“That’s all right; she’ll learn she’s perfect. We’ll teach her.” The tears stream down my heated face as the realization of how much they love me hits me with a force that makes my body want to bow to them.
Dom’s strong hands run along my ass and thighs.
“Do you hurt at all, little one?” His words are clearer and louder now. They were spoken out loud. I don’t want him to see that I’m crying so I just shake my head without looking up at him.
“You’re lucky I didn’t kill your ass.” I stifle my laugh at his silent statement.
“I’m a lucky sick fuck. You should’ve seen how she was dripping from using the belt.” There’s a pause before he adds, “It was a punishment, though.”
“What set you off?”
Caleb huffs in the same muted tone as their words. “Blowing off her emotions like they don’t fucking matter. And then she lied to me. I’m not going to let her hide from us. She’s denied who she is for too long.”
Dom nods slightly and kisses my hair again.
“Can you hear me?” I think the words as hard as I can. I would concentrate on finding his wolf but I don’t know how to.
Lifting my head and searching Dom’s eyes, I find nothing but confusion. “Little one, are you all right?”
I look deep into those piercing silver eyes. Why can I hear them, but they can’t hear me? As his mouth parts slightly with his brow furrowed in concern, I press my lips to his, gently sucking on his lower lip and pushing my breasts against his strong, hard chest. For the first time, my heart fills with devotion, my hot skin needing his touch.
My wolf can hear my mates. A warm calm runs through me as I feel her against my chest. My wolf.
Part III
Broken Heart
Devin
Gritting my teeth, I attempt to keep the anger at bay. This is exactly why I left that shit pack. We let him sit for hours, alone and in the pitch black while he came to… but he’s still high. “What are you on?” The stupid fucker just grins and lets out an unhinged laugh. The blood on his teeth and his bloodshot eyes make him appear even more deranged.
