Page 136 of The Omega's Bloodline: Part One

I dropped immediately to my knees and cupped his perfect face in my hands. “Oh my gods. You’re so cute I can hardly stand it.” Haru didn’t protest when I dropped my forehead to theirs, following up with a line of kisses up their snout.

Haru gave a tentative lick to my cheek.

“You do look rather adorable, my love.” Yelena knelt at my side and gave Haru a few strokes down his back.

He did the puppy head tilt at her.

“Very well.” A moment later Yelena was replaced by a lioness.

“Holy shit.” Even though I knew it was her, my heart kicked into gear, and I was absolutely frozen as she ran her cheek against mine and whacked the top of her head against my chest, knocking me over onto my butt.

Caden shifted instantly, standing protectively close. Yelena was several inches taller than Caden at the shoulders, and probably had close to a hundred pounds on him in his panther form. I was pretty sure if it came down to a fight, Yelena would win easily.

She took immediate advantage of my new position, knocking me over even further, so she could stand above me and drag her sandpaper tongue over my cheek.

Your heart is beating so fast, precious. What do you think?

“You’re so beautiful.” I stroked a tentative hand down her chest and over her belly, reaching up until I could lace my fingers above her spine and lift myself into an awkward hug. “Scary as fuck, but beautiful.”

Her laughter echoed in my head. She lowered me down and a moment later her lioness form disappeared and was replaced by a small golden cat that reminded me a bit of the Abyssinian breed. I scooped her straight into my arms, kissing the top of her head on impulse. My hands always knew what to do when there was a cat in them, and I quickly got her purr going.

Haru settled against my legs, still in their small form, resting their chin on my ankle. Caden stayed in his panther form but settled down next to me, content that Yelena wasn’t a threat for the moment. Seth slid off his bed slowly, taking measured steps toward us before dropping down at my feet to rest his head next to Haru.

Seth and Caden should have prepared me for a situation like this, but somehow going from two shifters to four was wigging my brain out. Yelena was purring up a storm in my arms and it was probably the first moment things felt almost normal since we’d arrived.

It didn’t last for long before Yelena took the opportunity to shift into her human form, every inch of her exquisite body devoid of clothes. She crouched over me and leaned down tosteal a kiss while my brain was still catching up to this change of events. Cinnamon bathed my tongue and a pulse of power burst out of me, rousing the sleepy shifters gathered around us.

Yelena laughed softly. “Precious, was that for me?”

She slid off me like water, stepping over Caden to gather up the dress that had fallen discarded to the floor. The gown returned to her body with deliberate slowness. A scattering of scars broke up the smooth perfection of her skin. Yelena’s eyes flickered between brown and gold, capturing my attention so she could keep eye contact with me the entire time she dressed, my heart pounding and clit tingling as I watched her. As much as my impulse was to examine every inch of her, I couldn’t drag my gaze away from her face once she had ensnared me.

“Come here, precious.” She crooked her finger and I rose off the floor, giving Seth and Haru a pat before moving toward her.

Yelena dropped to the bed, spreading her legs to let me stand between her knees. I moved like she was a magnet, helpless against the draw. I could feel the gaze of the others on me, keenly aware that I was in a room full of predators. My brain loved that in its twisted way, sending ripples of pleasure over my skin. Yelena’s eyes flashed gold, her fangs peeking out as she grinned at me.

“There’s my good girl. I think you deserve a reward.”

I swallowed hard, my throat dry. “For what?”

“In part for using that beautiful mind of yours today, but also I’d like to return some of the pleasure you just gave me. I haven’t gotten my purr going in ages.”

I came to a stop between her knees, and both of her hands moved to cup my ass cheeks, the prick of her claws teasing my skin beneath my skirt.

“Do you mind the audience?”

Goosebumps broke over my skin. For as close as Yelena and I had gotten thus far, having her hands on me with this specific intent was overwhelming in the best way. “Only if they do.”

“Darlings, I’m going to take Logan apart. If you don’t want to watch, go somewhere else.”

The room fell into complete silence, not one of them moving from where they were.

“There now, where were we?” Yelena tugged down the straps of my dress and one of my bra cups, surging forward to enclose the nipple in her mouth. The sound that leapt free was feral and the sweep of her tongue sent electricity down my spine, my clit responding as if she were sucking on that instead. I reached out eager hands, desperate for purchase, my nails digging into her shoulders as I struggled for balance.

Caden’s silky fur brushed along the backs of my legs before he hopped up on the bed and lay down, still in his panther form.

She’ll come if you keep that up.

“Traitor,” I gasped out.
