His cock throbs, thick and pulsing with every wave of release as he spills deep, warmth flooding me. Ronan’s breath turns ragged, his chest shaking. His mouth finds the curve where my shoulder meets my neck, voice roughened by awe and hunger. "I’m going to bite you, Kitten. Going to bond you. Now."
His teeth sink into me, deeper than any wound I’ve ever known. It’s scorching heat and electricity, wild and primal, not just flesh but soul as our spirits fuse. The world telescopes, then explodes outward, every sense flaring wide. His presence bursts through mine, thunderous and eternal. My Omega rises with the force of a storm, my two sides so close we act as one. I sink my teeth into his exposed shoulder to give back everything he’s pouring into me.
Our bond snaps into place, an echoing shock that sweeps through muscle and marrow. The sensation is limitless. Every one of my fears vanishes. Every crack stitches together in a new way. We are soul pressed to soul. There are no walls between us.
His awe, his fierce adoration, all the soft places he hides and the violent, relentless love he holds for me, fills me completely. From his view, I see myself whole, safe, cherished beyond sense. There’s no end to us, no border where he stops and I begin. The world expands, limitless, beautiful, every heartbeat braided together, never to be alone or separate or unloved again.
Gabriel groans behind me, clutching tight to my hips, his voice thick with awe and wonder. "Gods, I can feel you through Ronan. It’s so fucking beautiful, Leah. You are so fucking beautiful."
His hips snap forward, hard and deep, his body going taut as he loses control. Every muscle strains as he thrusts into me. The wave of his climax crests and crashes. Heat spills deep inside me. His orgasm pulls mine up and over the edge again, my body convulsing with pleasure. Jax pulls free from my mouth as I shatter, everything inside me blown open before I drag in another breath to scream.
Anguish and bliss blur together as Gabriel’s teeth find the other side of my neck, sinking into skin and soul, marking me as his. His arm is just there. I bring his forearm to my mouth and bite down hard. The world splits wide,everything filling with gold and bright, frantic wildness. Our bond locks and Gabriel rushes in, all sunlight and sharp citrus, laughter and vulnerability. His happiness roars through our new connection, as if my joy and safety are the only things that matter to him in the universe. He’s hope made flesh, raw and shining and desperate for me.
"I love you. I love you so fucking much. You’re my whole fucking world. We’re never—never—gonna be apart again. Never. Thank you, Gods, thank you for letting me in, for letting me bond you. I’ve never wanted anything this much, never needed…" His words fall away as kisses rain across my neck, my hair, my shoulder.
I’m nothing but a panting, wrecked mess, limp and weightless, pleasure still crackling through me, every limb boneless. Gabriel slumps against my back, his body shuddering with each ragged breath as the last waves of release roll out of him. He hesitates, groaning softly as he finally pulls from my body, leaving me empty and aching, lost for a heartbeat because he didn’t knot me.
A broken whine escapes before he soothes me, kissing the bite on my shoulder, his voice gentle and warm, awash with devotion. "I’m only leaving you because Jax wants you and you want him." His hand trails across my back as he offers me to the last of my Alphas.
Jax sweeps his palm along my cheek. "Gods, Leah, I love you. You’re everything to me. More than I ever thought I’d want, more than I dared ask for. You mean everything, Sunshine. You’re my heart." His hand steadies my hip as he lines up behind me, the head of his cock notched at my entrance.
He eases in, and the stretch is exquisite. Slow, burning, and delicious. He’s bigger than Gabriel, and even slick and open as I am, the fullness pushes me to the edge, pressure singing through my nerves. The sensation of being so perfectly filled, of his cock sliding against the inner bulge of Ronan’s knot still locked inside me, sparks lines of fire straight through my body. Every inch glides in with aching care, until at last, his hips are flush with mine, the weight and breadth of him perfectly cradled, the heat of his skin on my back.
Ronan goes rigid beneath me, breath breaking in a guttural growl as another release pulses through his locked body, warmth flooding me all over again, knot throbbing, binding me tighter to him. The intensity of having both my Alphas locked within me unravels me, every nerve alive and frantic.
Jax groans, his hands trembling on my hips. "Gods, you feel so good. So fucking perfect, Omega. I already feel you, Sunshine. Feel you through Ronan, through Gabe… Beyond precious. Thank the fates for bringing you to us." He starts to move, slow at first, savoring the way we fit, then faster. His thrusts deep and sure, every movement striking pleasure through me, rocking me against Ronan’s chest and knot.
Endless sensation spirals, pleasure so intense it blurs into ache, into ecstasy, into a new thing woven from all of us. I’m out of my mind, writhing with every thrust, every brush of Jax’s cock against Ronan’s knot and Gabriel’s bite already seared into my shoulder. The world has narrowed to this perfect claiming: filled, knotted, adored, endless and safe.
Jax’s movements turn savage as he nears his climax, hips snapping forward, knot battering at my entrance until he forces his way in. Stars explode behind my eyes, pleasure so incandescent it strips me bare. He lifts my chin, his broad palm cradling my jaw, and bites the front of my neck in a place that’s high and visible, leaving a bold, possessive mark. His teeth break the skin and the rush of his essence and soul bursts through me in a cascade, a conflagration of heat and love, of belonging, of something so sacred I sob his name.
We tumble gently to our sides, Ronan and Jax guiding every move with care, cradling me between their bodies while I’m intimately joined on their knots. Sweat slicks my skin and the sheets, breath still ragged and shallow. Exhaustion pulls at every muscle, but bliss, deep and humming, buoys me from within. Completion sits heavy and sweet, but something fierce and unfinished thrums still in my chest.
I catch sight of the solid bulge of muscle that is Jax’s bicep. Heat rushes up my throat, instinct blazing. I sink my teeth into the curve of his arm, biting down hard, anchoring myself in him, in us.
A hot, electric, inexorable rush floods out of me and into Jax. Our bond flares, vibrant with shared awareness and love. Every sensation multiplies, Jax’s soul pulsing through me alongside Ronan’s fierce protection and Gabriel’s uncontainable brightness. Our four-way bond webs together, expanding in a great, open spiral. Love and belonging spin outward and then return, an endless loop of connection and light.
Gabriel curses, body shaking as he scrambles over Ronan to find me. "Thank you, Leah. Omega. Thank you for this connection." He plants a clumsy, breathless kiss on my cheek before sprawling on top of all of us, a warm, beloved weight.
Ronan groans. "Gabe, you’re going to break my ribs if you don’t move."
For a moment there’s only the tangle of limbs and euphoria, and then Jax speaks. "Uh… I think you’ve fucked Gabe to unconsciousness, Sunshine." We all freeze. Then comes a soft, unmistakable snore.
Laughter bursts from me, bubbling up from somewhere bright and untouchable. Light fires through me, a warm current, shooting in every direction. The bonds flare, lighting every dark corner, flooding me with their love, with the miracle of belonging. I am filled, surrounded, claimed, cherished. A tangled, breathless, blissed-out mess held fast by my pack, the four of us woven together, fierce and unbreakable, forever.
My Omega howls her completion, my soul sparking to life, forever interlaced with my Alphas. Never alone. Never unloved. Everything finally, impossibly whole.
Chapter Fifty-Two
Ronan
Leah falls asleep, exhaustion finally catching up with her. The softest breaths move her chest, her body heavy and slack against me. I pull my knot from her, careful not to hurt or jolt her as Jax does the same. If I could, I’d live with my dick inside her, but she needs rest, and sleep.
I stroke the small of her back, her hip, the line of her thighs. I need to know she’s real and this isn’t a figment of my yearning. That we found her, we ended Hardwick and the threat hanging over her head. Only Wallace escaped, and that waste of space Alpha has made the top ofmy shit list.
Jax rolls Gabriel’s dead weight off all of us with a muttered, "Come on, big guy, you’re squishing everyone."
Gabriel snuffles in his sleep, flops over onto Jax’s other side, and within seconds throws an arm back across all of us so his fingers brush Leah’s side. Can’t blame him. Even unconscious, none of us want to let go. I ease Leah’s head onto my shoulder, tucking her closer. I run my knuckles along her brow, over the delicate arch of her cheek, unable to stop touching her, needing the proof of her warmth in my arms.
