Chapter 23

"Not to be a dick," Tanner whispers, his hands tightening on my hip. "But you're dangerously close to sliding mine inside you. So, I need you to wake up enough to tell me that this is okay." He's curled around my back as we both lie on our sides. "Ranger is a few feet in front of you, if you'd rather go for the familiar."

I gasp, pulling my hand up to rub at my aching eyes. "Oh, no. My eyes are burning."

"Yeah, I'm not shocked." Tanner's hand slides over my hip, down my soft stomach, and to my clit. "You're scalding my skin. No matter how your system is set up to handle fevers, I can't imagine it feels great. Is this okay?" His fingertips brush my hood, despite the awkward angle, and I nod, lifting my thigh to give him easier access.

He uses his hand by my head to grip my skull, twisting my face to meet his over my shoulder. It's not easy, because of the angle, but we make it work, with our tongues clashing in the air. His shaft jumps between my legs, and it's easy to understand what he meant.

I'm sure if I wiggled my hips just right, I could maneuver him inside of me.

My head shakes, and I carefully scoot forward, which allows his cock to fall to the bed, before spinning to face him.

"What's wrong?" he asks, studying my face.

"I haven't had my birth control in over a week, and omegas are actually more fertile the closer we get to a heat," I whisper, fisting my hand between us to keep myself from grabbing his cock. "But I really need your pheromones. I could suck you off, that might settle the wave."

"I already know. Ranger mentioned it." Tanner's hand lands on my lower back, and he tugs me closer as we lie on our sides, facing each other. "I have regular checkups. I don't have my last set of test results with me or anything, but everything was negative, if you want to take my word for it."

My hand wraps around his shaft, and I toss my leg over his. The height difference is a pain, but with a little wiggling, I'm able to jerk his tip against my clit.

The haze is too deep to question him for details as he curls closer and pulls my mouth to his.

It's not just the way his fingers splay from my jaw into the hair at the base of my skull or the playful way he kisses me. It's everything, including how his warm pre-cum spurts against my sex as I jerk him with uncoordinated movements. His woodsy scent floods the air as his pheromones thump in response to mine.

My core clenches around nothing, and a painful wave of cramps rips through my stomach. I groan into his mouth as he soothes his hand over the back of my head.

"What's the fastest way to get your temperature down?" he whispers against my lips.

"I would venture to say knotting," Ranger says from behind me as his skin moves to cradle my backside.

"Yes," I agree. "Both of you should knot me."

"Mmm, I'm not sure that's how that works," Tanner says, palming my head. "Your impulses might be a little too optimistic for your own good. I remember how snug you were around my fingers."

I'm holding Tanner's dick… The realization hits me, and I move him from my clit to my entrance. It takes some shimmying and a slight bit of crawling over my muscular alpha before his crown slides inside me.

My mouth falls open against his cheek because he's thick.

"Holy fuck," Tanner gasps. "You're burning up."

"She is," Ranger agrees.

One of his hands lands on my hip and ass, while the other slides between my leg and the mattress. Then he's helping lift and shove me on top of Tanner.

It rolls Tanner fully onto his back, but his cock slips out of me in the process as I push up on my knees to try to find my balance in the new position.

I whine, a sound unlike I've ever produced slipping from my lips.

Both alphas growl in response, and my core convulses around nothing.

Slick drips out of me all over Tanner's cock, and he looks completely feral as my eyes meet his.

"I suppose I have to do everything," Ranger mutters, repositioning until he's kneeling behind me on Tanner's thighs. My entire body aches, and my hand flies to push back against the throbbing pain in my pelvis. Ranger's chest brushes my back as he reaches around me, grabbing Tanner's cock. "Push up on your knees if you want that knot." His shaft is hard, bumping my ass as he speaks directly against the shell of my ear.

My hands land on Tanner's hips as I rise far enough that he'll slip inside me. My vision is hazy, and it's dark in the nest, but the look on his face spurs me on as I descend.

"Okay," I groan. "That's a lot." My head lulls around, and sucking in deep hits of their scents mingling together doesn't help anything. "I feel hazy, like I'm completely wasted. Is this normal?"

"I'm not sure, but I do know your fever is even more concerning than it was last night," Ranger murmurs. "That tells me we need to listen to what your body is asking for."

"Cum," I say without thinking it through. "I need to soak up your cum. Both of you."

"With the way you're strangling my dick, that's not going to be a problem," Tanner chokes out. He moves his hands to my waist, lifting me and using his grip to shove me deeper on the downstroke.

Ranger continues to frame my back, his arm circling my hip as he moves to tease my clit. "Let me know if you're after something different this time around."

I nod as he licks over my shoulder.

I'm actually grateful I didn't take my hair down after our bath because his tongue flicking across my oversensitive skin feels life changing.

Tanner continues helping me bounce on his swollen shaft, and the more he stretches me to capacity, the hazier everything becomes.

Ranger scrapes his teeth over my skin where my neck meets my shoulder, and a string of mostly incoherent begging spills from my lips.

"You may wish to be more mindful of what you're asking for," Ranger says, nipping at my ear as he works my clit.

Pleasure builds in my abdomen, and I know I'm doing very little to earn the euphoric feeling.

"Don't even joke about shit like that," Tanner growls, pushing himself up with his forearms. "You know the rules of biting a foggy omega."

I can feel Ranger shrug from behind me. "I've never been particularly good at following the guidelines set by society."

Tanner pulls my face to his chest, but with Ranger still working my swollen clit, I explode. My movements are jerky as I try to grind every ounce of pleasure out of my orgasm.

Tanner tilts his head, kissing me and drinking down all my sobbing demands. Their scents seem to heighten every sensation.

I've never felt like a blubbering puddle of omega before, but I'm pretty sure that's what I look like.

"Move," Tanner growls, staring over my shoulder at Ranger. "We're switching positions."

Ranger gives my entire pussy a final squeeze as he kisses my shoulder, and then, his warmth disappears from my back.

Cool air rushes in, making my skin sizzle.

"I want you on your hands and knees for me." Tanner kisses my forehead. "Present for me, omega!"

I hear the words, but I'm so out of it that I ignore the command.

Tanner uses his hands on my hips to lift me off him.

I scramble onto the bed on all fours, and Ranger kneels only a few feet away. My body snaps into motion, and I crawl toward him.

I barely get his cock into my mouth before Tanner slides into me from behind. His girth feels totally different from this direction, making me moan around Ranger's length.

"That felt quite good," Ranger says, petting my cheek. It's a very tender moment. He's affectionate in ways I wouldn't expect.

I hold myself up on one palm and grab his other hand, bringing it to rest on my head.

"Grab my bun and do your worst," I say, circling his crown with my tongue.

"Sweet fucking Jesus," Tanner growls. His palms land on the top of my ass, and he pulls forward. The move spreads me farther apart but makes my inner walls clench. "I've never felt anything like this. It's like your cunt is searching for my knot."

I nod, popping off Ranger's shaft to look at him over my shoulder. "It is. I need you to fuck me deep."

"You got it," he says, sounding like he's totally down for that prospect.

Ranger uses his hand in my messy bun to pull my mouth back to his dripping shaft. "Tongue out, love."

I comply, and his dick dribbles pre-cum all over my taste buds.

My senses are so overstimulated that all I can really focus on is the rippling of Ranger's abs and the way his forearm muscles flex as he begins to truly use my mouth.

"Goddamn," Tanner groans. "The view from back here is spectacular. You've got such a juicy ass. How do you feel about letting me fuck it one of these days?"

I nod as much as I can when Ranger is controlling my head, but the moan I release should let him know I'm down for that.

Maybe.

Under the right conditions.

It's something I've never tried before, but the thought of pleasing my alpha is enough to make me giddy about giving it a shot.

"Your pretty pussy looks incredible stretched around my fat cock," Tanner growls. "So pink and wet…and all fucking mine."

"Ours," Ranger chokes out as his muscles get tight. "It doesn't seem you'll be able to fit much more in your mouth."

Tanner's skin frames my back as he leans over me. "You really wanna blow his mind. Don't you, firecracker?"

I nod, circling my tongue around the bottom of Ranger's length. That same vein pokes out enough that I can feel it. It makes my core convulse around Tanner.

"Give her a little warning when you're about to stroke deep, and tell her to swallow." Tanner chuckles, tightening his hold on my shoulder as he pulls out and slams back inside my core.

"I'm not sure that would work," Ranger says, sounding perplexed.

"Let's show him." Tanner's hand leaves my shoulder, landing on my head. His fingers dig into my hair, and then he's guiding me deeper down Ranger's shaft.

Ranger's crown bumps the back of my throat, and rather than panicking, I do my very best to swallow.

"That's our good girl," Tanner coos in my ear. "Such a perfect fucking omega."

"For the love of God." Ranger caresses my cheek with his thumb. "Are you okay?"

I nod.

"She's great. She just gushed." Tanner pats my head and moves to kneel behind me again.

Ranger pulls out of my throat and tentatively thrusts again. It makes my eyes water, but feeling his hard length actually slip down my esophagus is fucking hot.

Tanner begins to fuck into me from behind and works a hand around to tease my clit. "I've never fucked without a condom. You're going to spoil me."

"Yes, well, new experiences all around," Ranger says, making me smile around his cock. My nails dig into his thighs as he really gets into fucking my mouth.

"Let's see if we can…" Tanner slaps his pelvis against my ass, and his knot wedges inside my opening.

For several long seconds, my system can't decipher if that feeling is pain or pleasure, but my whole body floods with warmth that turns quickly to euphoria.

I have no clue how much actual time passes, as everything feels hazy and muted.

I lose control, gushing around Tanner's knot, and he curses from behind me.

"We're locked together. I've got no hope of pulling out, so…" He growls, spilling a string of curses as his cock thickens and lengthens inside of me. His knot pulses and swells slightly, and my core floods with his cum. "That's so fucking hot. It feels extra dirty because my instincts are convinced I'm breeding you."

"I'm afraid I can't hold out much longer," Ranger says, brushing his thumb over my cheek. "Would you like me to pull out and jerk off?"

I scoff, moving my hand from the mattress to wrap around his knot. My tongue swirls around his length as his muscles lock tight.

"No, I can't. I'm afraid I'll hurt you if I lose myself to my impulses." Ranger loosens his hold in my hair.

It doesn't matter, though.

I'm ravenous to taste him. My cheeks hollow, and I swallow around each spurt of his cum in my mouth. He comes for so long that it gets difficult to breathe and manage the sheer volume, but the way he tenderly pets my head makes my chest all warm and fuzzy.

I don't care how dangerous he is to the world.

This alpha is mine.

Ranger eventually groans, pulling free of my mouth and tossing himself down on the mattress.

"Fucking finally." Tanner chuckles. He wraps his arm around my middle, splaying his hand on my sternum and pulling me vertically on my knees. "Grind on my knot." His hand tightens on my hip as the other moves to pinch my nipple. "Watching these bounce is so fucking hot." He cups my tit before moving to the other.

"Make me come," I beg, wiggling my hips and trying to make his knot swell like it did before. It hit some magical place as his crown brushed my G-spot, and apparently, I'm a selfish omega because I need that again. "Please, Tanner."

"I've got you, dirty girl." He laughs, scratching his teeth over my shoulder. "I really wanna hear you scream for me."

He circles my clit, bucking up into me as much as the position allows. My legs shake as my shoulders curl toward the bed, but Tanner keeps me upright.

"Bite," I groan, tossing my head to the side. "Please, Tanner?" My head is hazy with the wave of heat, but I do want him. If my bite could claim alphas for my pack, then I'd be biting him right about now. More begging spills from my lips as my core locks down on his swelling shaft.

"Your pheromones have me so fucking hazy," Tanner growls, holding me tight to his chest. He fucks up into me as his cock jumps with each shot of his cum. "All I can think about is fucking my baby into you. Then every alpha who looks at you will know you're mine."

"Bite me, and they'll really get the picture," I sob, wiggling my hips. "Please? You feel so good. I'd make you mine if I could."

Tanner growls, and the next thing I know, his teeth dig into my shoulder right on top. Anytime I wear a tank top or off-the-shoulder shirt, his claim will be visible.

My insides light up.

There's a split second when my senses comprehend that I can deny the bond.

My soul or consciousness dismisses that possibility immediately.

The pain of his teeth digging deeper only seems to flood more euphoria through my system. A combination of both of our juices spills out around his knot, and my nose is obsessed with the way our scents mingle together.

A cheesy smile crosses my face. "Holy shit, you did it."

"Mmm, I did," Tanner agrees. "I figured if I wasn't afraid to breed you, then I shouldn't be afraid to bond you. Both are lifelong commitments."

"And you told me not to act rashly," Ranger scoffs.

I know he's right in front of me, a few feet away on the bed, but my vision is hazy.

The warm, fuzzy feeling in my chest intensifies as Tanner licks over his bite.

"You're all fucking mine, firecracker."

"Yeah," I agree a little breathlessly.

Holy shit.

Everything just changed.
