Finally, I couldn’t take it any longer.
With a roar, I exploded inside her just as she screamed in ecstasy. The intensity of our shared climax left me breathless, my heart pounding in my chest as I tried to regain my composure.
My heart thumped hard in my chest as I felt the base of my cock swell, knotting securely inside Carmen’s tight, wet pussy. The sensation was unlike anything I'd ever experienced before, the primal intensity of our joining leaving me breathless.
“Fuck, yes,” I growled through gritted teeth, holding her hips firmly to ensure our bond was complete.
At that moment, Axel let out a guttural roar, his release spurting across Carmen’s hair and coating her dark strands with his hot semen. This only heightened the wild, feral atmosphere.
“Fuck, sorry, baby,” Axel said, kissing her on the mouth.
“It’s okay,” she giggled, looking exhausted from pregnancy, and I knew we had pushed her to her limits as my cock swelled and knotted her to me.
“Our fiance about ready to sleep,” Tyler remarked, rubbing her shoulders.
“I love you all,” she mumbled, her voice barely more than a whisper, her eyelids barely open.
I reached out and tenderly touched her cheek, my fingers trembling slightly from the overwhelming emotions coursing through me.
“We love you too, Carmen,” I murmured, feeling aninexplicable sense of protectiveness for the beautiful omega who had captured my heart. “More than you know.”
As Carmen drifted into a well-deserved sleep between Tyler and me, I couldn’t help but feel a fierce determination rising within me. I would do anything to keep her safe, to ensure her happiness. No one would ever take her away from me again—not as long as I was alive.
“Rest well, my love,” I whispered into her ear, pressing a soft kiss to her temple. “We’ll be here when you wake.”

Two Months Later
Carmen
“Stop!” I cried, laughing as Griffin splashed water at me in the swimming pool. I was hanging out with all my alphas today on a hot summer day.
The sun’s rays glistened on the surface of the water. I felt at peace with my pack—no tension and no worries. My laughter mingled with theirs until a sharp, intense cramp seized my body.
I cried out, clutching my belly as tears formed in my eyes from the contraction.
“Shit, Carmen, are you okay?” Tyler swam to my side, his hand protectively resting on my swollen stomach. His eyes searched mine, worry etched across his face.
“Ow!” I whimpered, squeezing my eyes shut against the pain. “It hurts so much.”
But then the pain disappeared as quickly as it had come.
“Was that a contraction?” Logan asked, his eyes wide with instant alarm.
“Yes,” I answered, scared of the next one.
“This might be it, guys,” Griffin said. “Carmen, is it time to go to the hospital?”
I could only nod, unable to speak through the agony of the second contraction. An odd sensation engulfed me as I felt warmth spreading through the water around me. My heart raced—my water had broken.
“I think my water broke,” I shouted as panic surged through me.
“Alright, let’s get you to a hospital. Stay calm, honey,” Jaxon said, lifting me out of the pool and carrying me toward the house to get dry.
I held onto the kitchen counter as Jaxon rushed upstairs to grab my hospital bag and clothes. My baby was coming today, I thought excitedly. I had been waiting forever, feeling tired and sluggish for months.
