Sugar Coated

28

Jax Sinclair

    There's a certain intensity to omegas that is something that needs to be experienced to be understood. Designation classes and any of those fancy Alpha boarding schools can do all the reading that they want but none of it really mattered until Em waltzed into Sugar Coated and turned everything that I knew upside down.

    Other unmated omegas had flitted through my life and each of them had their nuances, but something about him screamed in my mind and had me beating down every instinct to throw him onto the floor and give him the bite he would end up asking me for not that long after.

    I'd gotten the same feeling in a way for Andres.

    And Delaney...sweet vulnerable Delaney. She made me ache in the same way.

    But when she said those words to Em it hit the bond like a bomb.

    The Omega in him jumped at the chance to claim the metaphorical carrot on the stick in front of him and the Alpha in me jumped to give them both exactly what they wanted.

    I'd shoved off the counter in front of me where I'd been prepping the last of our breakfast before I caught myself on the corner of the island. Don't overwhelm her.

    Em would do enough of the overwhelming for the both of us if given half the chance, and besides we still needed to talk boundaries before we pushed forward with anything else pack-related.

    Delaney was wrapped up in Em's arms, he'd pulled her so quickly into his chest, that her arms had stuttered in the air behind him for a second before they wrapped around him accepting the embrace. I watched him like a hawk for one second then two and then three. If he'd tried to dip his face near her neck again I'd have hauled him off her for both their safety, but he didn't. He pressed gentle kisses to the crown of her head.

    His words were a quiet snarl as he claimed her as ours and it had my cock hard in an instant as I caught bits and pieces of his words.

    "I'll never let you go. You're ours." His fingers gripped her neck overlaying that choker she always wore, "I'll kill them and anyone else that says otherwise."

    I was inclined to agree with our auspicious Omega.

    Em's dark chocolate perfume was impossibly thick in the air, it was hitting that sweet fragrance he would get right before his heat would trigger. He was due for another heat within the next few weeks. It made me wonder if the timing might have had a play in triggering the breeding situation, though Delaney had dropped into our pack space just shortly after his last heat and he'd been in rare form ever since then. Maybe this heat had just intensified it.

    Andres made his way gingerly into the kitchen, a sharper smile on his face told me he'd caught the flair of lust and the mental claim down the bond from earlier.

    "Well, well, well, Doll. Getting started without me?" He drawled as he approached the two of them and ruffled their hair.

    Em well and truly bared his teeth at Andres and his use of the nickname I'd given her and Andres caught it at the last second as he was turning away. Our beta was nothing if not a shit-stirrer, so even I could tell you it wasn't the best choice for Em.

    "Ohhh," Andres sang at him, "now that's not an expression I see from you too often, Em."

    "Why do you get to call her Doll?"

    He smirked as he left the two lovers to come and steal a piece of bacon from me, "She asked."

    Now it was Delaney's turn to suffer under the weight of Em's accusation, "Why can't I?"

    "I never said you couldn't," Delaney sputtered into the fabric of his hoodie.

    "Doll," Em tasted the nickname as he tucked some of the flyaway hairs around her face behind her ear.

    "Yes?"

    I watched the change in him as she stood on her tiptoes to rub her cheek against his, letting him scent mark her. His entire body went rigid for a second, his fingers digging into her waist. "I'm going to fuck you."

    "Boundaries first!" I clipped out the words before his scent and the thought of getting to watch them together this time got the better of me. I looked over my shoulder to see that the pair had Andres' rapt attention and that told me I was the one who would have to be an adult today.

    When it came to full and complete consent I wouldn't have it any other way. I couldn't have it any other way.

    The two of them stood frozen, staring at me with round wounded eyes.

    "Boundary conversation, then food, then fucking. Got it?"

    Em's whine was out before I finished the sentence.

    "You're a strong omega you can handle that I'm sure," I teased as he pulled Delaney closer, when he didn't respond I resorted to bribery, "If she agrees you can keep Delaney in your lap."

    "I agree. Wholeheartedly."

    I gave her a smile and she melted, the last bits of the anxiety she held in her shoulders dripping away, "Good girl, Doll."

    She made my mouth water.

*****A/N*****

This would have been another short one so instead you get two in one day.

Hope you're enjoying the weather as much as I am. Florida finally isn't completely burning outside so I've gotten into the habit of standing in the sun for a while.

It's been helping
