Yet when he turns to smile at me, it’s different, turning from dim and faint to a blinding grin that makes my face flame, because I know he wants to get in my pants and would do so if Dawn and Zach weren’t here.

And I know he loves me, because he’s showing me that love every single day.

So slowly, by degrees, I find my calm. She’s a nice person, friendly and open, and my anxiety is fading away.

We can do this. It will work out. Piece by piece the puzzle is coming together, and the picture emerging is beautiful.

Finally feeling better, I take a bite of the lasagna—yum—and glance around at my mates. They’re laughing at something Ronin said. Zach is helping himself to more salad, a grin on his face. Casey says something about dessert.

God, I love them so much. Almost losing Casey and Grey was a shock to my system, made me take stock and realize how much I wanted to be with them. And our alphas are so sweet despite their growly nature, their main aim in life seeming to be pleasing us, protecting us, giving us the best life possible.

How can I not love them?

But there’s another reason I can’t focus on the food and the banter.

The promise of what’s to come after dinner, after dessert, after our guests go home.

It takes up so much space in my mind. Consumes my thoughts.

The dessert arrives, and it’s chocolate mousse with strawberries. Of course the boys wag their brows at one another. Grey who is sitting beside me offers me a spoonful, his eyes dark with arousal, and God, will this dinner never end?

I want them so badly. I’m so aroused, my pantyliner doesn’t stand a chance.

I wonder how slick Casey is and how he’s dealing with that.

Honestly, I can’t believe this is my life now, and that these are my problems. I snicker a little, and Grey offers me another bite of mousse. The scent of arousal rises in the air, and Zach sniffs, his face going red.

Oh, shit…

“I think it’s time for us to go,” he says. “Come on, Mom. It’s getting late.”

“What? No, I’m having some more of this excellent mousse!” Dawn makes a face. “Why the hurry? It’s still early.”

“I’m telling you, it’s time.”

I hadn’t thought of his sensitive alpha sense of smell. Must be weird, to be with your parents and your dad’s pack, and smell how aroused they all are.

A little cringey.

And to be honest, at this point, I don’t care. I met the ex, I survived, and I’m ready for my reward.

Ronin’s teeth graze my neck and I moan, rocking back on his cock. Without his knot inflated, it’s just a cock.

You know, your average alpha, enormous, mega-cock—plus piercings. It’s a lot for a girl to take in.

It feels amazing, filling me up, his arm around my back as I rock in his lap, his face buried in my neck as he licks and sucks on my scent gland.

“Do it,” I whisper. “Bite me. I want it.”

His cock jumps inside me and I almost come—again, because Grey got me the moment the guests left, threw me on the sofa and went down on me, making me come so hard I saw stars. He then bit the inside of my thigh in a love bondmark and it throbs dully now.

I like how not all the marks will be visible to everyone.

I like how each one of us thinks differently.

Now Grey is busy fucking Casey, Zayne has his mouth on Grey’s neck, and oh God, everything is a blur of pleasure and anticipation.
