Chapter 16

Chapter Sixteen

GAbrIEL

C erenity's door is closed at five in the morning the next day, making Augustine frown as he stands outside it with me. He had a hard time sleeping, worried about her for most of the night.

He twisted and turned, mumbling even when he managed to fall into an uncomfortable sleep for a couple of hours. I don't know the little omega well enough to know if she's in trouble or not, but he has a special connection to her, so I'm following his lead.

Finally, he threw off the blankets in the bed, sitting up with a frustrated growl, and that's how we ended up here.

"I need to see her," Augustine grunts, slowly opening her bedroom door. "Cere?"

There's a low whine in the closet, which makes me frown. Why isn't she in her bed?

"Her nest is here. I'm not surprised she decided to sleep in it after yesterday," he explains softly.

"Why are you still living in this two bedroom? Cerenity should have a real nest," I grunt.

Woah, where the fuck did that come from? It sounded oddly possessive and as if I give a lot of fucks.

"She hasn't wanted to look at anything larger because she's been obsessed with my leaving her for a mythical person," he mutters before he crosses the room to open the closet slowly. Ah, yes. His scent match. It's ironic, really, that everything is now coming full circle.

"Hey, Sweetheart."

"Auggie?" Cerenity asks, sounding sleepy as I close the door behind me. Her bedroom is decorated in vibrant purples, teals, and sapphire greens, spots of color brightening up the room.

I get a peek behind the closed mouthed omega as I gaze around, smirking when I see a stuffed dog sitting on a pillow as if perfectly placed there. Everything seems to have a home in the room, and even the teal curtains are half closed.

It's the work of someone who needs everything to be in its place, and completely normal for omegas.

The sun hasn't risen yet, but the curtains are in the perfect position to keep the light out enough so it won't wake her.

"Hey, beautiful. You look snuggly in there and I can't sleep. Can I join you?" Augustine asks, startling me. He's rarely this vulnerable with anyone.

"Why can't you sleep?" she rasps softly. Cerenity sounds as if she's been crying, and my heart clenches. Something about her has always spoken to me. We could have been really good friends if Augustine didn't insist on keeping both sides of his life separate.

Now, I'm not above begging for scraps of her attention. This isn't about me though, so I walk over to the wall next to her closet and slide down it until my butt hits the soft carpet, prepared to get comfortable.

I'll probably go for my run once I know she's alright.

"I'm worried about you, silly," Auggie says softly. "You've had a rough few days. Can I enter your nest, Cere?"

He's so formal as he speaks, making my lips twitch at how gallant he is.

"Get in here, dork," she says, amusement in her voice. "Is there anyone else with you?"

Auggie crawls into her nest, snuggling under all the blankets on the floor. I still think she should have a proper room for this, frowning as I think about every heat she's had alone. The full weight of it is really hitting me as I sit here, and I want to change the way her next one goes.

"Gabe is sitting outside," he mumbles. Leaning over to peek my head further into the closet, I wave at her awkwardly. Auggie is purring as he snuggles her, his nose buried against her neck, and I gaze at them like a creeper as she relaxes in his arms.

She's wearing a giant hooded sweatshirt that appears to be Auggie's and the small space smells like apple pie and cinnamon. Fuck, they smell really good together. My cock thickens in my basketball shorts as I swallow thickly, trying to keep my face impassive.

"Hey, Cere," I murmur, borrowing Auggie's nickname for her. She rubs her cheek along his hair like a cat, and my lips part as she scent marks him almost unconsciously. "Can you by chance tell me what Auggie smells like?"

My man glares at me in surprise, but Cerenity sighs softly. "It's cinnamon bark and grapefruit. They shouldn't work together, but they're yummy."

Augustine blinks quickly as it begins to sink in that her alpha pheromone blockers are finally out of her system. She doesn't seem to be freaking out, so I let it ride for a moment.

"Good little omega," I murmur, laser focused on her shiver at my words. Hmm, that's interesting. "Do you know what that means?"

"Why are you making me have a conversation so early?" she whines. Chuckling, I shake my head at her antics. She's adorable. I can't wait to spend more time with her.

Auggie tortures his full bottom lip with his teeth as he sees where I'm going with this. "How long have you known what I smell like, Cere? Don't make me tickle you for the information. I'm very good at extortion and torture, though it's my personal brand of it."

Rolling my eyes at his antics, my lips spread wide in a smile as his hands move under the blankets to tickle her.

"Auggie!" she squeals, wiggling. "Oh, oh! Please, stop!"

He gives up easily, kissing her forehead as if he's done it his entire life. Cerenity melts into his body, completely at ease.

"Are you not so sneakily talking about my spray wearing off?" Cerenity huffs with a small smile. "I put on your sweatshirt, not expecting it to have your scent on it, and got into my nest. I was surprised to smell your scent. You're all around me, and it felt like you were giving me a giant hug."

"So you didn't have this urge to eat brains and fuck me?" Auggie snickers. Cerenity pinches his side, causing him to yelp, and I wonder how long Jasper and Tommy will be able to sleep if we're being this loud.

"Ah! Mercy, please, Cere. I just want to know, is it so terrible to be my scent match? I come with a hot fighter as a boyfriend and unlimited orgasms."

Cerenity rolls her eyes as she turns in his arms so she can snuggle closer. They look perfect together, and I wonder if I'm going to end up feeling like a third wheel. I know what Auggie promised, but a scent match should trump what we have, right?

"This sweatshirt smells like you just wore it. Why?" She deflects, inhaling deeply.

Moving closer despite my conflicting feelings, I get comfortable in the opening of the closet.

"I come in and randomly steal it back so I can run errands in it," he murmurs, tipping up her chin with his fingers to brush his lips against hers. My cock twitches as he kisses her, helping me decide that I'll do anything to be able to be a part of the heat in his gaze.

It's how he looks when he gazes into my eyes, which helps me believe his words were sincere to me in my apartment.

I've never known Augustine to lie, outside of his omission of truth to Cerenity.

"Sneaky alpha," she whispers, eyes hooded. "I thought being scent matched would feel different, suffocating, but the moment I smelled you, I just wanted to find you and have you hold me. It was overwhelming to think of how long I've been holding myself back from this."

"You and I have history, sweet girl," he says. "I know you have your demons, but I'll help you fight them if you let me, okay?"

God, this man. I glance away as my eyes prick with tears when I see Cerenity's also fill with the wet stuff. I'm rarely this empathic, though I'm not an asshole. It's clear from how she reacted to the news of her scent matches that she has trauma surrounding how alphas treat their omegas.

I'm not privy to that information, and it's none of my business. Not until she feels the need to share some of it with me, anyway.

"Yes," she whispers. "I know you won't hurt me, but what about Jasper and Tommy?"

"They've lost their minds," I counter. "This isn't how they typically operate, so it can only be the news rewiring their brains and making them stupid. I'm not arguing that you're wrong to be worried, but I am citing that they may have lost their damn minds."

A watery giggle escapes her as she takes a shaky breath, making a face at me.

"They lost something alright," she mutters. "I don't want them to scare me, but it's a visceral reaction I'm having a hard time overcoming."

"Can I help?" I ask eagerly, scooting closer to them before I stop short. This is her private space and I shouldn't be encroaching.

Cerenity dashes away her tears, grabbing a few more pillows from around her to prop her and Augustine up.

"Only if you come join us," she says with a small smile, lifting up the blanket. As if pulled like a magnet, my gaze finds Auggie's green eyes which are warm and happy.

Crawling over, I slide under the blankets, surprised by their weight. It feels like a cocoon of safety, and it's not stifling or hot oddly enough. Cerenity has somehow found the perfect balance of blankets. I don't have a lot of experience with women, but her brain and beauty fascinate me.

Shrugging her blue hair over her shoulder as she lays propped up on her pillows, she takes a deep breath. Her equally brilliant blue eyes sparkle with the evidence of the tears that never fell as she gazes at me, lips pursed.

"Do you have a plan?" she asks.

Her pouty lips are a siren's call, forcing me to swallow hard as I attempt to get comfortable. Ugh, my cock is so hard it could cut diamonds.

"I think you need to see how patient Jasper and Tommy actually are," I begin. "I've trained with Jasper for years, and I've never once seen him really lose his cool until recently. I've seen him agitated when he would get information about possible leads to track his sister down, but that's to be expected. Tommy is calculating in business, however he's different with his family members and makes an effort. He's not as patient, but I think you can bring the caring side out of him by poking the bear."

Inclining her head, she nods, waiting for me to continue.

"What if you got back at them for their arrogance?" I ask her. "Tommy is really fucking vain about his hair, shrink all their clothes and turn them pink, all of that will piss them off. They'll also suck it up I think because they deserve it."

"I don't get the feeling that they're the paragon of patience," Auggie says, brow raised.

"No, but I'll drop hints that they deserve this, and even help you with really fun ways to prank them that'll get under their skin," I offer. Is it slightly childish, eh, maybe. I think they deserve it though, and the tiny omega next to me is just the person to offer up revenge.

It'll be a great way for them to eat crow, showing they aren't dangerous to her.

"What if it makes things worse?" she whispers.

"This is your turf," I remind her, turning to wrap my arm around her waist to pull her closer to me. I'm now her pillow, and I notice immediately how she sighs as she relaxes against me.

Cerenity is lying between my thighs, my fingers playing with the ends of her hair, so gently she doesn't even notice.

I want to be part of all of this. Please don't leave me behind.

Auggie's eyes hood as he watches us, reaching out to cup her face.

"You're a bad bitch, Cere," he reminds her. "Start acting like it. You reset, but you don't cower. Remember who the fuck you are, baby girl."

Cerenity shivers against me, her thighs rubbing against each other as she perfumes. Fuck me. I'm sure she can feel my cock against her ass right now, and I can't find it in myself to pull away.

"Is my girl needy?" our alpha croons. Auggie pushes the blankets off both of us, rubbing her bare legs. "I can smell you, but I want to see. Can I?"

I love how he's pushing her while still getting consent every step of the way. Unable to hold back, I run my nose up her neck, giving her open mouthed kisses along the way.

"You're so damn beautiful," I groan. "Auggie has been keeping us apart, have you noticed that?"

Cerenity whimpers as she writhes against me, making me groan.

"You're wiggling that cute little ass all over Gabe's dick, Cere," Auggie says with a chuckle. When she freezes, he shakes his head, pushing her legs apart to stare at her panty-clad pussy. "I'm sure he'd prefer it if you didn't stop."

"I just, I don't know what to do," she whispers, making me blink in surprise. Auggie just smiles at her, kissing the inside of her thigh.

"You're telling me you've never come on someone's face before?" he half teases her as he makes her gasp when he licks up her leg.

"Auggie, you were my first kiss," she whispers.

"How is that possible?" I ask softly, my fingers delving into her blue tresses to pull her head back to meet her gaze.

"You kind of have to date to have an opportunity to be kissed," Cerenity says.

She's so damn beautiful, I kiss her nose and each of her cheeks as I process her words.

"I think you just made Augustine's entire life. He was my first kiss too," I confess.

"Mine," he grunts as he drags his nose over the scrap of cloth covering her pussy.

"Auggie," she moans. "You can't do that."

"Do what? Devour this beautiful pussy?" he growls. "Why not?"

"I don't know… Do people really do that?" Cerenity squeaks.

My lips twitch because she's so cute. I've never been with a woman before, though it's not something I advertise. There's a certain reputation fighters keep as man whores. I've never cared enough before to buck the standard, so I don't.

My heart belongs to Auggie. I haven't been with anyone else, even when I pushed him away to date other people. Hypocritical, I know. Every so often, a sweet pet name slips from my lips, which has to amuse him due to my tough guy exterior.

"I watch porn here and there," I confess, my lips pressed to the shell of her ear as my fingers spasm in her hair gently. She's still recovering from being kidnapped and hit, I don't want to hurt her. "I've never actually licked a pussy or even seen one to be honest."

Augustine's beautiful green eyes look up at me as his knuckle's rubbing over Cere's core, making her hips begin to thrust mindlessly.

"I haven't either," he says with a grin and a shrug. "Gabriel was my first kiss when we were sixteen, though it didn't get serious until a year later. Cere, let me strip you bare and make you come. You're bucking against me just from rocking over your clit. Does it feel good?"

"Ye…yes," she gasps. "I want more, Auggie."

"So damn perfect," I growl, burying my face in her hair and inhaling deeply.

Augustine rips off her panties, tossing them at me before he buries himself between her soft thighs. Bringing the material to my face, I inhale deeply as I groan. Cerenity smells like fucking heaven.

"Oh my God," she moans, making me grunt as I rock her ass over my cock.

"I'm trying to be a good boy, Mistress," I growl as I shove her panties into my basketball shorts. "Your pretty little noises have me thinking very bad things."

"Like what?" The minx gasps, her fingers wrapping around my biceps to ground herself, as Augustine drags his tongue over her clit before kissing it. It's so sweet, right up until he sucks on it hard and gently pushes a finger into her tight, wet channel.

The slick is already glistening on her skin, dampening my shorts and the blanket underneath us as well. Fuck, her moans are so damn sexy as she enjoys our man's ministrations.

"Like how I want to play with your tits," I say, taking the lead. The pretty little virgin is experiencing new things right now, and I want to paint the scene for her. "I want you splayed out naked for us, a pretty little plaything who's ours to make come for us."

Auggie growls below us, pushing another finger inside of her tight pussy.

"Yours?" she whimpers, back bowing as she gets used to the stretch of Auggie's fingers.

"Oh yes, baby girl. I've barely had a taste, I refuse to let you go," I whisper, claiming her lips as I begin the slow climb of Auggie's sweatshirt up her body. I want her to have plenty of time to tell me ‘no' if she wants it. I've argued with myself a lot over the last two days, and I'm sure this won't be the end of it, but I do want this beautiful omega.

She should be worshiped and adored at all times. Cerenity raises her arms, so I can pull the sweatshirt over her head, her breasts bouncing out.

Augustine and I both reach for them together, kneading and pinching her nipples as I continue to kiss her. Her sweet moans are addicting.

Smirking because Augustine only has one hand at the moment to play with her tits, I fucking love that we're doing this together. We may have private moments with her later, but this is how it should be.

"Mistress, will you come for him? You never said," I remind her, squeezing her breast harder.

"Argh," she squeals, pushing up into my hands. "God, that feels so good. I'm close, I think. I just can't…"

Cere needs a little pain with her pleasure, and I kiss down her neck as Augustine's fingers ghost down her side before he hitches her leg over his shoulder, opening her up further.

"What do you need?" Auggie purrs for her, his chest rumbling as he doubles his efforts to push her closer over the edge.

"I don't know," she complains. "Your fingers feel so good but…"

"Do you need a knot?" I breathe into her ear as I knead her perfect breasts. Her nipples are a deep pink and hard with arousal. All I can smell is the best kind of dessert, and I want some of it. "Or do you need two of us to make you come?"

Shuddering, she gasps at the image, and I smirk as I decide I want to make that happen for her.

"Get on your knees, and let us worship you the way you deserve," I insist, chuckling as Auggie backs up and Cere scrambles onto her knees. "I think you like that idea. Greedy little omega is going to get her knot, but first, she needs to come."

Augustine cups her face as he licks her lips before kissing her, ensuring that she tastes herself too. Grabbing my cock, I squeeze myself with a grunt, my eyes almost crossing with my need to come.

This isn't about me, I know I'll be taken care of another time. I want Cerenity to enjoy herself, and understand that real men make sure that their woman enjoys herself fully.

"I'm going to eat your sloppy pussy with Gabriel, and then you can decide if you need my knot, Sweetheart. It's always been you and Gabe," he rasps against her lips.

Leaving the little omega as she heaves with emotion and arousal, I lay on my back, pulling her firmly onto my face to lap at her sweet pussy. The sounds she makes are so fucking beautiful.

"That's a good girl," Auggie praises her, pushing her back so she's slightly reclined and bracing herself on her arms. This way, her legs are splayed open, allowing Augustine to help me lick her pussy. Pushing my thick tongue into her hole, I smirk on the inside as Augustine sucks hard on her clit.

Cerenity screams as she comes for him, her slick covering both of us.

"Again," we growl, and I push three fingers inside of her, preparing her for Augustine. Her hips ride my face perfectly as if she was made to do it, and she pulls Auggie's hair hard to keep him close. Baby girl, wild horses couldn't keep us from you right now.

Gasping and whimpering, Cerenity pushes toward another release, one we're eager to give her.

"I don't know if I can again," she whines, her hips thrusting for more friction.

Removing my fingers, I close my hand and rock my fist against her opening. Augustine groans as he watches, adjusting his cock in his pants.

"What, oh," she groans, stilling as she begins to stretch as I push my fist slowly into her needy pussy.

"You're doing so well," I praise her as I watch as she swells around my fist. "Come, and then you can fuck our man. Do you want that?"

"Yes," she gasps, struggling to get used to me. Augustine gets on his knees, kissing her as his thumb presses hard against her clit. The only sounds in her nest are her moans, Auggie's grunts as he devours her lips, and her slick as she drips down my fist.

Slowly, she accepts more of me, impressing me as I begin to thrust inside of her. My fist disappears into her tight cunt, and her walls begin to flutter.

"Good fucking girl," I groan. "Mistress, you're taking me like the queen you are."

"Gabe has a dirty fucking mouth, doesn't he?" Auggie says with a dark chuckle.

Her fingers tighten along Auggie's arms as she shudders. "Oh, fuck. I'm gonna…"

Those are the only words she's able to speak before she releases the most amazing pornographic moan, squirting around my fist as Augustine pinches her clit with an evil grin.

Cerenity's scream is perfection, making me wonder when Jasper and Tommy are going to destroy the bedroom door in an effort to check on her.

Not one to waste a drop of sweetness, I lick up her slick, groaning at how amazing she tastes. Slowly, I pull my fist out of her pussy, opening my mouth wide to catch as more slips out.

"Such a glutton," Auggie teases as he pulls Cerenity into his lap. "How are you feeling?"

She cuddles against his chest as she attempts to catch her breath, making me chuckle as I sit up and wipe my face.

"Amazing, holy shit. I've never come like that before," she confesses.

Kissing her forehead, he grins down at her. "Do you want to catch some more sleep or…"

Biting her lip, Cerenity moves to straddle him, rocking over his hardened cock that's barely being restrained by his shorts.

"I don't think I can sleep right now," she murmurs. "I need your knot deep inside of me. Make me see stars, Auggie."

Goddamn, I love watching Cerenity demand what she wants.

Pushing off his shorts, he releases his cock, rocking her over him roughly.

"I'll try to be careful, but baby?—"

"I don't want soft," she whispers. "I want your knot deep in my pussy. Are you going to give me what I want?"

Confidently, she wraps her hand around his pierced cock, slowly pumping it. Moving behind them, I kiss her shoulder.

"You can squeeze tighter," I say softly in her ear. Nodding, I watch as she does. "That's it. Get his cock nice and wet with your slick by rubbing all over it. His piercings are going to light you up in the best of ways, baby. Ride him like the slutty goddess that you are."

Cere gives me a small smile before her eyes heat with desire as she follows my instructions. "Attagirl," I praise her. "You're doing so well."

Augustine's hands squeeze her plump ass, his head dropping back as the crown of his cock bumps against her clit. Cere whimpers as she does it over again, chasing the feeling.

"Use him, just like that," I murmur, kissing her hard. My fingers ghost down her back until they slide along her ass cheeks. Her hole is slick from her arousal, and I gently press against her, enjoying her cry of surprise that I swallow down.

"One day, we're going to both fuck you, baby girl. Today, you're going to take Auggie down and bounce on his dick. Fuck, I may even stroke myself as I watch."

"Will you?" she asks. Her pupils are blown with desire as I lift her hips and wrap my hand around Auggie's dick to guide it to her entrance. He curses at the feeling of being so close to heaven, and my cock twitches at the sound.

"I'll do whatever you want," I say honestly.

"What do you want? Secret, fucked up desire?" she asks, surprising me just as I get ready to push her down on Auggie's cock. My fingers spasm as I squeeze her hip and his dick, as she forces me to think.

"I want to watch you ride our man while I stroke myself until I come all over both of you. I want to mark you as mine, because while I can't bite you to bond you, I want to see the evidence of my possessiveness," I rumble as she looks up at me. Her skin is pebbled in goosebumps as she nods, and I reward her with Auggie's dick as I push her down it.

"Argh!" she gasps as she struggles to take him. Auggie is thick, his cock long and slightly curved. It's made to hit every spot inside of you perfectly, and it's not shy about rearranging your guts to make room.

"You got this, baby," I murmur, moving my hand from around Auggie's cock to play with her breast. "Hands around our man's neck. That's it. I'll help you find a rhythm."

I'm trying to keep Augustine from just thrusting up inside of her, and I watch as he grits his teeth as she slowly rides his shaft. More and more of it disappears inside of her tight cunt, her slick sliding down his cock.

"Goddamn, you feel amazing," he groans, kissing along her neck. He nips and sucks down it, though never enough to bond her. I doubt he would, but ruts happen, and they're both lost to their emotions and lust.

"I wish I could grow another dick so I could be knot deep in both of you forever."

Yeah, Auggie is cunt drunk, and it's sexy as fuck. Soon, Cerenity is rocking over his knot, moaning as she feels how thick it is. It's fully inflated, red and angry, wanting nothing more than to be deep inside of her.

Moving away, I push down my shorts, releasing my cock. Cere's eyes look to me with her eyes half mast and lick her lips as she fucks Auggie.

"Greedy girl, do you want a sweet and salty treat?" I tease her, capturing the bead of pre-cum over the head of my cock to smear it over me.

"I never have…" she says softly, swallowing hard as Auggie hits a perfect spot inside of her, making her moan.

"Gabe will love anything that you want to do," Augustine murmurs in her ear. "Whatever you want to do. He's a dirty boy, and likes a little pain."

He knows me well, and I smirk as I don't deny it. "Open up and have a taste, Mistress," I say.

Our gorgeous girl opens her mouth wide, sticking out her tongue as if she was born to suck dick.

"Fuck yeah, just like that," Auggie praises her as I slap my heavy cock over her tongue. I'm not as big as he is, but I know I'm still a lot for someone's first blow job. As an omega, she's made to take knots, however, no one wants to be dropped in the deep end just because they should be able to swim.

Rocking my cock over her tongue, I slowly thrust until her lips are closing over me and sucking hard. My head drops back as I groan loudly, my brain short circuiting at how good she feels.

"That's it, I'm going to thrust a little more, just keep sucking as you ride Auggie's cock. If it's too much, tap my thigh," I instruct. She nods even with my dick in her mouth, making me smile at how perfect she is.

Taking her face in my hands, I push my cock deeper down her throat, praising her as I go. She swallows hard as she sucks on me, moaning as Auggie begins to thrust up inside of her. Cerenity grinds her clit over him at every opportunity, whimpering as she gets closer to coming.

"That's it, baby. Come around his dick," I groan. Just as I say that, my vision blacks out as she comes and her throat gets impossibly tight. "Goddamn, you're strangling me. Fuck, fuck fuck!"

Auggie's knot starts to push into her pussy as she begins to pull him inside of her with her last orgasm. Augustine gasps as he holds her tightly, and Cere surprises me by continuing to suck me off.

"God, I'm close," I gasp. "Your throat is so fucking tight. You're sucking me like you were born to do it."

The little omega preens, all evidence of the shy virgin melting away. Auggie's knot pops inside of Cerenity, and he shudders. I rock harder down her throat, noting she doesn't have a gag reflex. Shuddering, I try to hold off until they come, knowing it's close.

A few minutes later I'm jerking away from Cerenity with a whimper as Auggie roars as he comes, taking Cere along for the ride, as her pussy clamps down on him. It only takes a few strokes until ropes of cum jut from my cock, covering their faces and chests with it. Auggie and Cere even open their mouths wide to catch some as they ride the waves of their orgasms.

Goddamn, I'm a lucky fucking beta. Kissing both of them, we clean each other up before collapsing into Cere's nest. I know Auggie's knot won't deflate for a while, and I can go for a run later.

"I'm still kind of mad at you, Auggie," Cerenity mutters petulantly as she lays on Augustine's chest.

"Baby, you can be mad at me for as long as you need to be. I love you and I'm not going anywhere," he murmurs sleepily.

Smiling as I close the door to the nest, I cuddle with them as my eyelids get heavy and I drift off into one of the best sleeps of my life.

I found what I was missing. Cere isn't just the other half of Auggie's heart, I think she's mine too.
