pack. It was our bonded home and every inch of it carried the scent of family and belonging.
The cabin itself wasn’t huge, with the largest part of it being our shared sleeping quarters. But we did have a nursery / nest which I was supposed to use when it was time for me to give birth and after. The room already had a cub-sized crib, large enough to fit all three of my pups, carved by Reid and painted by Thorn. I looked forward to the moment when I’d finally be able to put it to good use.
But we still had a few months to go until that happened. Right now, we still had plenty of time to ourselves, and like Reed had said, we were going to spend it together.
Even if a lot had changed between us, there was one thing that had stayed the same since our meeting, and that was the fiery need of our passion. At first, when I’d gotten pregnant, I’d been worried they wouldn’t want me anymore. That couldn’t have been further from the truth.
By the time we reached the bedroom, Jax was already breathing hard, and not because of exertion. The moment he set me down on the bed, I could see the tent in his pants.
Thorn and Reid weren’t doing any better. Today, Reid’s eyes were less like sharp emeralds and more like the grass outside. But he was still a raging wildfire, and I wanted nothing more than to feel his touch.
Thorn was so tense the raven on his tattoo almost seemed alive. He actually tripped on the carpet when he came into the bedroom, and I found his lack of grace as endearing as always. He recovered quickly and decided to just sit down next to me.
Without saying a word, my three lovers started taking my clothes off. The part of me that remained human was a little self-conscious about being in bed after walking barefooted through the grass, and as always, they remembered that. They produced a bottle of clear oil which they started rubbing all over my body, cleaning my feet, but also massaging the rest of me.
When Thorn’s big hands started working on my ankles, I couldn’t help but let out a small sigh of relief. I wasn’t in pain, not enough to warrant their concern, at least. But pregnancy did take a toll on a woman’s body no matter what, and it was nice to chase away some of that tension.
“Close your eyes, beautiful,” he said. “Just relax and let us take care of everything.”
I couldn’t have denied him to save my life. It was just as easy to obey him as it had been when I’d first arrived in the village. His voice didn’t hold the same harshness, but the authority was still there. He was still an Alpha – my Alpha – just like they all were. And so, I closed my eyes and let them do what they wanted to me. Every inch of me belonged to them. In their arms, I felt so very free.
At first, their caresses were more or less platonic, but naturally, that didn’t last. Reid lowered his mouth over my left breast and swirled his tongue around my nipple. I let out a small gasp. Since I’d gotten pregnant, every part of me had turned into an erogenous zone, but my breasts were particularly sensitive. Between that and Reid’s piercing, the touch felt so good it was almost painful. And since Reid hadn’t really changed, he had to make it even better by raking his fang over the rigid peak.
“Reid!” I cried out. “Ah!”
Reid chuckled against my skin but didn’t acknowledge my request in any other way. He didn’t have to. Thorn was already spreading my legs and reaching for my pussy. Meanwhile, Jax pressed his lips to mine in a brief kiss.
“One day, Isabel, you’re going to be the death of us,” he whispered, his voice filled with gravel.
I opened my eyes and met his golden gaze, hypnotized by him, by everything he was. I loved it when I could get them like this. I had no problem surrendering to them, but their need for me and the intensity of their desire reminded me that they belonged to me too. I also wanted to tell Jax that it wasn’t true, that I would never bring death in their lives again. But maybe he realized that too, because he broke away from me and started peppering my side
