It’s warm in the nest now. He’s shivering less.
“It won’t be too much longer,” he tells me. “I can feel them in the bond. They’re coming.”
“Your alphas?” I say.
“Yeah,” he says.
This… I’m relieved. Also? Disappointed, which makes no fucking sense. I am panicking right now, although I’ve been completely shoving down the panic so that I can try to help him, even though I know I can’t help him. I’m a beta, and I can’t get him through a heat.
“I’m so sorry, Hannah,” he groans. “I’m so fucking sorry about fucking everything.”
“Shut up and stop apologizing,” I say, harsher than I maybe should be.
But he seems relieved. “Okay,” he says. “Whatever you say, Hannah.”
And then I realize he needs to be taken charge of in heat, and I make him lie back and I run my hands all over him, and I tell him he needs to lie still and relax and let me get him off again. He does that, and I tell him that he’s a very good omega, and he visibly reacts to that, moaning a little.
So, that goes on for a while, me deciding what we’re going to do, telling him that it’s going to happen, and praising him vigorously. I alternate between fucking him, making him roll over and take toys in his ass, and giving him hand jobs. He comes about seventy times.
Maybe I’m exaggerating, but whatever happens, he never gets any relief. He’s still hard and he’s still obviously needy.
Eventually, I hear a car pulling up.
I leave the nest to go and open the door. I’m not dressed. I’m wrapped in a blanket, and I don’t even have the capacity to feel embarrassed about this. I just beckon them to come inside.
Ellis’s alphas are tall and broad shouldered. They are wearing nice clothes and they have product in their hair. They are very surprised to see me.
“He’s in here,” I tell them, bringing them through the house to the nest.
They poke their heads in and crawl inside, because the ceiling is low.
Ellis sees them and lets out this whine.
They pounce on him, both of them purring at him, and he rubs into them, purring back, letting out tiny pathetic whines, and they are kissing him all over and stroking him and calling them their pretty boy in throaty little voices.
Well.
Guess my work is done here.
I back out of the nest and brush myself off. Where did I leave my clothes?
Doesn’t matter, I have other clothes up in Ellis’s bedroom. I wonder about this blanket. Ellis probably wants it. I guess, after I get dressed, I’ll come back and give it back to them.
But when I do that, when I look into the nest, these men I don’t know are naked. One of them is knotted into Ellis and the other is on his knees, cupping Ellis’s face as he rocks his cock in and out of Ellis’s mouth.
It’s incredibly hot, and I shouldn’t be seeing this, and I make a noise, and all three of them look at me.
“Sorry,” I say. “I thought Ellis would need all the blankets he could get.” I set it down.
Ellis spits out the cock in his mouth and reaches for me. “Hannah, say you forgive me.”
“Who’s this?” says the alpha who was in Ellis’s mouth, grinning at me. Wow, okay, that’s what a knotted up cock looks like. Holy fuck, that is big. I realize I’m looking at his dick and not his face, and I blush and meet his gaze. “I’m no one. I’m leaving.”
“She’s my girlfriend,” says Ellis. “Please, Hannah, if you don’t forgive me, just say you do. You can take it back later.”
The alpha cups Ellis’s face again. “Hey, pretty boy, do you want her to stay?”
Ellis says nothing but he perfumes, and it’s so intense that I can smell it. It practically chokes me.
