Chapter 34

Thirty-Four

LACY

T he morning my heat ended, I was taking a warm shower at the hotel- excited to go home and see my family. Last night, I had lingering after-effects of a sore pussy from the intense knotting from my alphas. Even this morning, I felt it as I carefully washed between my legs with the sponge.

It was a pleasant ache, nothing like the days of heat pangs I went through. That's when I knew I was feeling better and out of heat.

When I woke up this morning, I called my mom and told her I was fine. She squealed and yelled excitedly that I wasn't dead, making sure my fathers could hear. She was upset to hear about Olivia, and it was hard for me to tell them that she was still trapped at the OBC. But they were excited to see me regardless, and she said they'd be waiting at my house today. I smiled, remembering the conversation as I stood under the water, letting it soak my hair.

I felt a presence outside the shower door and saw a shadow standing there. My heart jumped after being stalked for weeks, but it was Ethan when he slid the glass door open. He stood there in all his naked glory, his cock erect as he gazed at me.

"You ran away from us this morning," he growled, rubbing his beard. "We always shower together, my love."

"Oops, I'm sorry," I giggled when he shoved himself into the shower with me, shutting the glass door behind us. I was locked in the shower with this older alpha who couldn't get enough of me. And who I couldn't get enough of either.

He pulled me towards him, kissing me hard on my wet lips with the shower water pouring over us. I plastered my wet breasts against his chest, and his dick pressed against my stomach, pulsing and throbbing. I knew what he wanted instantly, and he wasn't going to wait.

"I'm going to knot your pussy, lovely," he said, lifting my right leg over his shoulder. My breaths came out in gasps from arousal as he pressed his dick against my pussy entrance. "You're so wet for me."

"It's from the water," I teased, and he gripped my ass cheek warningly.

"You're wet because I'm in here with you," he growled, nipping my ear, and I yelped. My pussy clenched in anticipation, eager for him to be inside me already. But he lengthened the torture by slowly rubbing his dick in circles around my pussy. Slick, mixed with water, seeped out of me as I tried to hump him, but his grip on my ass cheek stopped me from taking him in too fast.

With my right leg up, he thrust inside me in one lightning move, and I cried out in pleasure.

He smiled devilishly as he gazed at me.

"Are you trying to punish me?" I breathed, touching his wet beard.

"No, I just couldn't wait to sink into your tight warm pussy," he grunted as he thrust into me. "I had a morning dream I was knotting you, and imagine my disappointment upon waking up."

Each thrust made my eyes roll back in my head, stretching me each time. He held my ass tightly so I didn't fall, but his finger slipped between my ass cheeks.

I breathed in anticipation.

Then he pushed his finger into my ass, the pleasurable burning sensation intensifying the more he pushed his finger inside my butt. His dick pulsed inside me as he pounded in harder and harder, my legs shaking. I felt my stomach tighten more and more with intense pleasure. His rugged face was inches from mine, contorted in pleasure as he watched my face for any signs of discomfort, but I was enjoying this more than he knew.

"You're so beautiful every time I pump you with my cock," he said. "You can't help but open your little mouth."

I didn't realize I was moaning until he pressed his tongue into my mouth. I closed my eyes, enjoying the sensation of his finger in my ass and his cock inside my pussy. I moaned even louder when I felt the crescendo of pleasure intensify. I came over onto cock, shattering around him as he drank my moans.

"Oh Ethan, that was so good…" I said as he grunted out his own pleasure. The warmth of his cock inside me felt so good as he slid to the floor of the bath, pulling me to sit on top of him with my legs around his waist. The showers were huge in this hotel, to probably accommodate an omega and her alphas.

He knotted inside me while the water washed over us, soaking us together.

"I love fucking you in the shower," he said. "I'm never allowing you to masturbate with your vibrator ever."

"Wait, how did you know…?"

"Did you think I didn't notice the damn toy sitting on the shelf of your bathtub?" he asked, pulling me close and kissing me again on the mouth. I pulled back, my face burning with embarrassment.

"You weren't supposed to go into my bathroom," I said.

"It was for investigative purposes," he said, rubbing his teeth against my neck. I braced myself, knowing what was coming next. He bit me, a sharp nick, and I whined against him as he rubbed my back. "I love you little omega."

"That one hurt," I said, snuggling against his wet, hairy chest. "But I love you too, my alpha."

"Hmm, I like the sound of that," he said, squeezing my butt against his knot as I wiggled over him in contentment. His knot was snug and deep inside me as we sat hugging each other, waiting for it to release us.

A couple of hours later, I was nearly jumping out of my seat when we drove up to my house. The beautiful house that I worked so hard for. The sight of my ornate gate made the feeling of coziness settle inside me. My stalker, who was part of a psychotic group, was finally dead, and the nightmare was finally behind me. But the sadness of leaving Olivia behind loomed over me, and it would follow me until she was safe.

At the sight of my mother standing at the door to my home, I smiled.

"She's been waiting for you," said Adrian, squeezing my waist.

"I know," I said, quickly hopping out of the van.

My clean cornflower blue dress swung around me as I ran to hug my mother. Her long red hair was identical to mine as it flowed in the wind.

"My baby," she cried, hugging me tightly. "I'm so sorry. I never thought this would happen…"

"It's not your fault," I said, my voice muffled against her ample chest. She smelled like onions and food, probably cooking all day for our arrival. Gabe pulled me out of her arms and gave me a large hug. He rubbed my hair, messing up my bun.

"Gabe!" I screamed at him, and he chuckled, his arms at his side now.

"I was scared we lost you," he said, and I could hear the trembling emotion in his voice. I was his baby sister, and I knew he was worried sick. "Welcome home, sis."

"Thanks, Gabe," I said, pinching his cheek, and he scowled. "Don't worry now, I'm home and safe."

Everyone had come out of the house to see me, and I was surprised to see Jade there along with my nephew, Manny.

"I'm so glad you're safe," said my aunt Jade, looking at me with tears in her eyes. "You're like a daughter to me, as you know. Please tell me how Olivia is doing, every detail."

"Of course," I said soberly. It was a horrible thing to come back safe and sound without Olivia. I felt intensely guilty like never before. We really should've tried harder.

We were all sitting around my dining table as I relayed everything that happened to me over the past week. I glossed over the part about me going into heat, but Manny guessed it instantly.

"Did you mate with your bodyguards?" he asked, digging into the chicken my mother and Jade had baked. "You smell like them."

"I…yes," I said meekly. I wanted to tell them when I was ready, but my mother smiled widely, looking back and forth between Ryder and me.

"You finally found your true pack of love," she said. "Your fathers will see you later, and I hope they approve of these wonderful bodyguards who went to hell and back for you."

"I hope so, too," I said. My dad, Alex, who was the pack leader, was hard to impress. But my dad, Jack, who was second-in-charge, would usually intercede for me. Jack was Jade's brother. Having seven dads with different opinions was sometimes a nuisance, and I wished my life was simpler.

"I'm sorry we couldn't save your daughter," Ryder addressed my aunt.

"From what Lacy had said," said Jade. "It sounded next to impossible at that time. I understand. Manny is trying to convince the Royal Pack to go after them since he's their prince. But the government is reluctant to go after their own kind."

"For right now, Olivia is doing okay," I said, trying to soothe her a little. "Omegas are pampered over there. Lots of massages and food."

"What if Olivia goes into heat at that place?" asked Manny with dread. His question made everyone stop chattering excitedly about my arrival. It was a looming cloud that hung over us, not something that I could forget easily.

"If the authorities don't do anything after the information you gave them, we will have to step in," said Ryder. "I'll give you the exact location of the camp so you can let King Armon know."

For the rest of that day, I talked with my mother and Gabe, catching up. We sat in the living room, away from the rest, and we talked about everything, including my attraction to my bodyguards. Aunt Jade had left early, and Manny was discussing things with my pack.

"They better find Olivia," said my mom, leaning against the couch arm with a hand on her forehead. "I almost lost my mind when I saw you on the news."

"I know, Mom," I said.

"Mom didn't sleep, and our dads had to force her to eat," said Gabe.

"Oh my god, Mom," I said.

"It's okay now, baby," she said, sighing and rubbing her face. She had new wrinkles on her face that I hadn't seen before, and I hoped it wasn't from me being kidnapped. "The government needs to do something about it, and I think you need cameras everywhere."

"I know, Ryder won't let that one go," I said.

"Listen to your pack," said Mom. "They will protect you to the ends of the earth for you. I believe that."

"I know," I said, my heart warming.
