Even through my haze, the insult bothers me, and I shoot my alpha a scowl. “Kane! Don’t be mean to Dex!”
“Sorry, Omega.” I can still hear the grin in his voice, but I’m distracted by the feel of his hands on my hips, tilting them up to meet his mouth. His fingers are still pumping in me, but now I can feel the prickle of his beard on my sensitive skin. “You should see this red, dripping pussy, brother. I wonder if it tastes as sweet as it looks.”
I’m pressed so close to Jake, I can feel the bob of his throat as he swallows. I give his scent gland another nibble, but cry out as Kane’s tongue swipes over my folds. He groans and dives deeper, but it’s still too much of a tease for my aching flesh, and I reach behind me to pull him closer. “Please, Kane!”
“I’ve got you, mate.” His tongue withdraws, only for something much bigger and harder to push inside. The friction shoots a bolt of pleasure up my spine and I arch my back, panting into Jake’s throat. “Yeah, that’s it,” Kane hums, pushing all the way inside. “I’ve got what you need, Omega.”
I rise on my knees a little, pushing back to take his hot length. With all my slick there’s hardly any resistance, but he’s so big I can feel every thrust in my belly.He’s driving his claim deep inside me, I think as pleasure surges up my spine. I dig my fingers into Jake’s shoulders, peppering kisses up the side of his neck as Kane fills me to the brim.
“Please, Jake,” I pant as I feel Kane’s knot throb against my opening. “Kiss me while he knots me.”
My new alpha turns his face my way, his pupils blown so wide I can barely see the blue. But instead of leaning towards me, he clamps his lips shut tight and shakes his head. “I can’t. Not like this.”
A bitter scent suddenly floods my senses. Jake can barely look at me, and the rejection hits me so hard, I taste bile on the back of my tongue. “But…”
“I have to go.”
He’s moving before I can stop him, lifting me off his lap and sliding away. I tilt sideways as he dumps me on the cushions, and would probably hit the floor if Kane’s strong arms didn’t immediately clamp around me. “Don’t you fucking dare!” he roars, his face flushed with fury. “Sit your ass back down, Jake!”
“I have to go,” Jake repeats, brushing past a startled Dex and almost running to the door. I squirm out of Kane’s hold, scrambling over the back of the sofa to chase him down. But as soon as he realizes I’m following him, he holds up a hand, stopping me in my tracks. “Please, Diana. Don’t come any closer.”
It’s the first time I’ve heard my name on his lips and pain rips at my heart. How did I ever think heat cramps were bad?This is like dying a thousand deaths all at once.
“You leave, brother,” Kane says from the sofa, his hands curled into fists, “and we’re really gonna have a problem.”
“Let him go.”
I’m still staring into Jake’s eyes when cool arms slide around me, the scent of cookies filling my tortured lungs.
Rowan.
My omega.
“Leave if you want to, governor,” he says as he presses a soft kiss to the side of my neck, his hand sliding up to cup my aching heart. “We don’t need or want Luscious’ leftovers, anyway.”
CHAPTER NINETEEN
There's a part of me that’s tempted to chase Jake’s stubborn ass and drag him the fuck back here. But mostly I want to kick him so hard, he carries the bruise for the rest of his miserable life.
“It’s okay, sweetheart,” the pornstar croons, turning Diana away from the door and into his arms. “The important thing right now is to take care of you.”
“Jake left…”
“Butwe’rehere.” She sounds so heartbroken, my entire body twitches with rage, but the omega just gives her a soft smile. “Come on, let’s go have a bath.”
She casts another dejected look at the door, but with a few more encouraging words, the pornstar manages to steer her towards the bathroom. The scowl he shoots in my direction would shrivel the toughest alpha knot, but then his eyes roll so hard I’m surprised he can see where he’s going. “Come on, Alpha. We’re all here for her, right?”
“Yeah, of course.” I take the olive branch for what it is andfollow them into the bathroom. It means going through the bedroom and I raise an eyebrow at the state of the nest. “You’ve been busy.”
The pornstar’s bristles are suddenly on high alert. “Is that going to be a problem?”
“Not to me,” I reply, peeling off my black tee. The scent of slick is almost dripping off the walls, and I shrug. “You did what you had to, right?”
“I did what Iwantedto,” he corrects me, then gives Diana another adoring smile. “Do you want to light the candles Dex brought you?”
She nods, taking a couple of cheap candles from a paper bag and setting them on the vanity. When she looks around for a light, I pull one from my pocket and beckon her over. She doesn’t hesitate; her gaze searching mine as I set the flame to the wicks. “You’re staying, right? You don’t have to go anywhere?”
Fucking Jake and his fucked-up instincts.
