When he pulls back, eyes shining, I’m lost. But my omega knows what to do, and together, we bite him back. When the final bond clicks into place, like a golden tether of light inside my chest, the world shifts.

I’m whole. We all are. I sob into his chest, overwhelmed, breathless with the weight of everything we are now.

He groans into my skin, thrusting once, twice more before his knot swells, locking us together as he spills deep inside me. I feel every pulse of it – every claiming wave of warmth, every heartbeat pounding in sync with mine.

And then…stillness.

His weight settles over me, his arms cradling my head, his lips brushing my temple. He watches me with a reverence that borders on holy. “You okay?” he whispers.

My heartbeat stutters and I nod, breathless. “More than okay.”

He nuzzles closer, purring against my skin. “We’re yours now. All three of us. Forever.”

I turn my head and find Xar curled on one side, Blaise stretched out on the other, both watching with soft, stunned smiles. And I feel it – those threads of bond singing between us, shimmering and new.

“I can feel you,” I whisper. “All of you. In here.” I touch my chest.

“Same,” Xar says softly.

“Yeah,” Blaise murmurs. “I’ve never known a feeling like this. It’s like you’re in my blood now.”

Dane strokes my hair. “You always were.”

I exhale slowly, the last of the tension leaving me.

I was terrified once – of being seen, of being wanted, of being too much. But now? Now I’m held. Claimed. Cherished.

Their arms wrap around me, heartbeats syncing with mine, bond marks still humming where their teeth found home.

There’s no space between us. Only warmth. Only safety. Onlyhome.

Three marks. Three alphas. One pack.

I lie in the nest as they curl around me, hands stroking my hair, fingers brushing reverent circles over each bond. I’ve never felt so full. So complete. Soloved.

“I love you,” I whisper.

They don’t need to say it back.

They answer with touch. With scent. With breath.

Through the bond, I feel it:Forever.

EVIANA

Warmth surrounds me – thick and layered, pulsing with the scent of my alphas.

It’s the first thing I register as I blink awake: the weight of bodies pressed close, the rustle of breath, the brush of skin and soft blankets and the bond.

The bond…wow.I’m bonded.Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would let an alpha get close enough to bond me, much lessthree. I never thought I’d want to bite them right back, or that I could love anyone besides my sisters this fiercely, completely and irrevocably.

I shift slightly, careful not to disturb the delicate sprawl of limbs around me, and realise I’m tucked deep in the nest – Dane curled at my front, Blaise half-draped across my chest, andXar pressed close behind, one large hand splayed low over my stomach.

The air smells like us. Like nature and spice and storm-smoke, and beneath it all, the golden warmth of the bond threading between us is like a living, pulsing, perfect thing.

I don’t move. Not yet.

I just breathe. Let it settle. Let myself feel it.
