Carmen

T his couldn’t be happening again.

I grabbed the blanket, pulling it up to my chest as I sat up from the fog of my heat. Confusion whirled through my mind as I stared at Tyler’s face, searching for answers. I thought we were fine, but apparently, he wasn’t happy with me.

“Why?” I asked simply. “Am I not good enough? Please, just tell me the answer to that, and I will never ask again.”

Instead, he coldly turned away from me. “It’s nothing to do with you, Carmen.”

“Dude, what the fuck?!” roared Jaxon, his hand resting on the small of my back.

“Logan will take care of you, Carmen,” said Tyler, leaving me at a loss for words. I was too shell-shocked to respond. He suddenly stormed over to me and lifted my chin with a rough hand. Tears spilled down my face as he looked at me. “Let him knot you, okay? He cares for you, and he will treat you better than I ever could.”

“No,” I said, my voice shuddering. “We’re friends. There’s nothing between us, so you don’t have to worry.”

“Logan will knot you,” he said, his voice firm, tinged with the alpha bark that injected urgency into his words. I could tell he didn’t want Logan to knot me, judging by the angry look in his gaze, but I wasn’t sure. “Say yes.”

“Fine,” I said, just to make him leave me alone. If he didn’t want to tell me what was wrong with our relationship, I didn’t want to see him again.

“Good,” he said, wiping away my tears. “Don’t think of me again. This is the last time you’ll ever see me.”

“Bye,” I said without another word. I had no idea why he was rejecting me again, but I didn’t want the experience to be as brutal as last time.

My heart ached as he shifted into his werewolf form, landing on the floor and rushing out of the house into the snow.

“I’m so sorry,” said Axel, his gaze forlorn as he stood at the door.

“It’s fine,” I said, even though it wasn’t. Not at all. My soul was crumpling and dying at having let Tyler take my virginity. Letting him have all of me, even for a moment, was a disaster.

“It’s a fucked-up decision. We’ll be back for you, because this isn’t goodbye,” said Jaxon determinedly before he shifted and followed his pack leader. He didn’t want to say goodbye, but he looked back one last time before leaving, his eyes lost.

“Bye, Axel,” I said, turning to the gentle giant who didn’t pressure me for anything.

“Bye, sweetheart,” he said, breathing hard, before turning to follow his pack.

When they all left, I crumpled into the bed, crying from the painful stabbing sensation in my heart, combined with the discomfort from my heat.

My world felt like it was shattering again. The abyss of depression that I had fallen into during Tyler’s first rejection loomed close as I gasped for air.

The pillow was drenched with my tears as I lay face down on the bed, crying and covered in blankets despite running a high temperature.

“Carmen?” Logan's voice broke through my thoughts, and I felt the bed compress as he sat beside me. My tears had dried under the heat on my skin, and I looked toward him, my eyes burning. “I’m so sorry, sweetheart.”

I swallowed as the heat consumed my body, begging me to take a knot.

Any knot.

“I don’t want to talk about Tyler,” I said, feeling anger rise in my belly at the mere thought of him. I never wanted to see him again. “I just need to be knotted right now.”

His eyes widened at how easily I was giving in.

“The pain of it will pass, Carmen,” he said, rubbing my back. “I don’t want you to make these decisions while you’re angry.”

“I’m in heat, though,” I said, biting my lip as I felt the burning course through my thighs and my clenching pussy. “And I like you. I’ve always liked you, but I didn’t want to ruin our friendship.”

“It won’t,” Logan replied, clasping my hand. “It will only make it stronger. I’ve always had feelings for you. I just want you to know that, Carmen.”

“That’s good to know,” I whispered, my voice hoarse from crying. “I want to lose myself in being knotted by you all.”

With that, Logan leaned in and kissed me tenderly, our lips meeting for the first time.

To my surprise, I found the sensation intoxicating, and I eagerly deepened the kiss. Our tongues danced together as arousal blossomed within me, my body responding to Logan’s touch even as my heart ached from the recent rejection.

When he pulled away, he smiled, and I couldn’t help but smile back at his goofy expression.

“Are you ready for my knot?” he asked, mockingly deepening his voice, and I couldn’t help but giggle.

“I’m so ready,” I said, turning to Griffin and Talon, who were standing at the edge of the bed. “You can join too, you know.”

“I just wanted to make sure you were comfortable,” Griffin said, immediately hopping onto the bed on my other side, with Talon following suit.

“I am, don’t worry,” I said, gritting my teeth as the pain spiked in my belly. In my desperation, I quickly turned to Logan and started unzipping his jeans, revealing his massive erection. My eyes widened at the sight of him.

He immediately picked me up and turned me around, whispering in my ear, “I want you on your knees, sweetheart.”

I obeyed without hesitation, my breasts swaying as Griffin reached out to massage them. He flicked a finger over my nipples, stimulating me even more.

I refused to dwell on Tyler’s rejection. I would focus on the here and now with the alphas who clearly wanted me in their lives.

Talon’s fingers traced the curve of my neck, his voice husky as he whispered, “Your neck is so beautiful, Carmen. I can’t wait to sink my teeth into it.”

“Wait, I don’t know about getting marked so early in our relationship. It’s only been ten minutes since we got together.”

As the words left my lips, Logan’s cock slammed into my pussy from behind, making me gasp at the sudden, intense impact of pleasure.

“Enough talking,” he growled, his voice thick with arousal. “ It’s time for some good knotting. Let me give you relief, baby.”

My pussy clenched tightly around him as I gleefully accepted his cock inside me. Logan began to thrust into me urgently as I lifted my hips to take him in deeper.

“That’s a good girl,” said Talon, creepily watching my every move. “You like our pack leader’s dick deep in your tiny pussy, don’t you?”

“Touch yourself, Carmen,” commanded Logan, and my breathing grew ragged.

I reached between my legs as Logan pumped from behind, but Talon pushed my hand away so he could take over. Talon’s fingers started rubbing my clit. It was a whole different sensation to have three enormous males touching me without me having to do anything except enjoy the pleasure.

This was what being an omega was about .

The sensations were overwhelming, and I couldn't help but gasp as Logan’s thick cock stretched my pussy wide open.

As Logan continued to pound into me, Griffin and Talon played with my body, their touches driving me insane.

“So fucking soft,” said Griffin, squeezing my breasts and sucking on my nipples.

“Our omega’s clit is swollen,” observed Talon, rubbing me faster with two fingers.

“Oh,” I screamed when I felt my stomach muscles flex as I climaxed from Talon’s expert fingering. “Oh, stop!”

“You sure?” said Talon in a soft voice, prolonging my orgasm as I moaned.

“Fuck,” said Logan, thrusting deep into me as he exploded, filling me with his hot seed. I knew what to expect this time, and I braced myself as his dick knotted to me almost instantly.

“Oh my god,” I moaned as I collapsed onto my belly with Logan pressed onto my back, his cock deep inside of me. His hot rapid breaths on the back of my neck made my pussy clench around him.

“If your pussy keeps clenching like that, I would never pull out even when my knot goes down,” said Logan, kissing my skin.

“Don’t then,” I said, enjoying the feeling so much.

“Then tonight, I’ll keep my cock inside your little pussy while you’re sleeping. How does that sound?”

Excitement coursed through me at the thought, and I swallowed as a new wave of arousal strummed through me. “We can try that.”

My body still trembled with the aftershocks of my orgasm when I felt Logan’s knot finally release me. As he gently slid out, I turned to face him and pressed my lips against his in a tender kiss, our breaths mingling in the heated air between us.

“God, that was amazing,” I whispered, staring into his dark eyes. “But this bed is so gross.”

I glanced at the damp sheets, remnants of Tyler’s presence still lingering. I wanted to erase any trace of him because I was done waiting for him.

“What is it, baby?”

“I want to get rid of the mattress or move to another room,” I said quickly.

“Whatever you want, Carmen. We’ll take care of it,” Logan quickly reassured me, his voice firm.

“Thank you,” I sighed. “I really need a shower right now, though. But everything hurts.”

I had never felt so sticky in all my life, just after two knottings. I also craved a nest, but that would have to wait because I desperately needed to get clean.

“I can help you, babe,” said Griffin, who had been watching me silently, and I nodded. His strong arms scooped me up effortlessly from the bed like I weighed nothing at all, though I knew I was pretty heavy.

“You’re strong,” I said, looking at his hairy arms flexing.

“Oh, this is nothing,” he said, dismissing my concerns.

“I just never thought my heat would make my body weak like this,” I admitted, feeling vulnerable in Griffin’s arms.

“Don’t worry,” he chuckled warmly. “We’ll take good care of you.”

As he carried me toward the bathroom, I couldn’t help but reflect on how gentle and attentive the alphas had been toward me despite our lack of familiarity. I had been friends with Logan forever, but I was still new to Griffin and Talon. Yet they all made me feel safe—a feeling I hadn’t experienced since my fathers walked out on my mom.

The blue bathroom tiles were refreshingly cool beneath my feet as Griffin set me down. With one hand, he turned on the tub, adjusting the water temperature while I leaned against the counter for support.

“Please tell me that’s not hot water,” I pleaded, already feeling the sweltering heat of my body threatening to overwhelm me again.

“No, it’s not,” Griffin assured me.

“Thanks,” I breathed, watching the tub fill. “I thought I was ready to get out of bed, but now I’m worried it’s too soon.”

“Maybe I could knot you right here while we wait for the tub to fill up,” Griffin suggested, his voice low. “Then we can sit in the water together.”

Tingles coursed through my body at the idea; I was already craving the connection and relief that knotting would provide.

“That sounds… wonderful,” I squeaked, watching him shed his clothes at record speed. He stood before me, naked and covered in pure muscle. The dark shadow of his jaw and hi s tousled jet-black hair made him incredibly attractive. He literally looked like alpha perfection.

Griffin didn’t waste time. He quickly pulled me against his firm chest, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He pinned me against the cool, smooth tile floor as he slowly pushed himself inside me.

“Are you okay?” he asked.

“More than okay,” I said, swallowing. This felt so good, especially since two alphas had already stretched me. The soreness I had felt since losing my virginity to Tyler seemed to disappear quickly, and maybe that was just an omega thing because no one had told me about that.

“Good girl,” he said as he slowly thrust into my pussy. His cock stretched me so wonderfully that I moaned against his mouth. Our skin pressed against one another, enhancing the incredible sensation I felt all across my body.

His thrusts felt so fucking good as I gasped from his movements.

“Oh my moons,” I moaned when he pistoned into me, and I clawed at his back to pull him in deeper.

“Fuck,” he growled as he pulled back and into my pussy. He pumped into me one last time before finally climaxing with a roar.
