“I already did. I haven’t gotten my period yet, it always takes a couple of days. Still, would it be so bad if I was pregnant?” She looked up at me as the water continued to rain down on us.
Fiona didn’t get her periods every month like I did, or at least like I should. The birth control I took stopped my period completely, because they were very inconvenient for my profession. Omegas got theirs a few days after their heat if they didn’t get pregnant. She was on birth control, but given her suppressants didn’t work, we had to consider that might not work either.
“I mean an omega having a baby right after mating is a surprise to no one. Would you be okay if we started our family sooner rather than later?” Fiona continued.
“I’m fine with it. What about you? How would you feel about it? You’re the one who’d be carrying their spawn.” I grabbed the bodywash.
“Oh, I think it would be amazing. I really hope it’s triplets.” Her eyes sparkled.
Triplets? Hopefully not.
“If you’re pregnant, I think you should tell the guys that I knocked you up, because it’s funny.” I soaped her down.
“Absolutely and I’m fine if I’m not. It's not like I expected myself to go into heat and get a whole pack while on vacation. Honestly, the smart thing to do would be at least wait until after the application is accepted,” she replied as I rinsed her off.
“Should I attempt to knock you up now?” I gave her a kiss.
“I’d love that.” She batted her eyelashes at me.
We finished our shower and dried off. She lay down on the bed, hair spread over the pillow. I joined her and kissed her. Hopefully,we’d always be able to make time like this.
Her mouth captured mine as her leg wrapped around me. Heat followed between us as my hands ran up and down her body.
“You are so beautiful,” I murmured in between kisses. The marks on her body had faded, except for the silvery bite mark from Hale. Mine and Carlos’ were there, just not as obvious.
“You’re not so bad yourself. That dress you wore to dinner? I wanted to take you into a closet.” Fiona licked her lips suggestively.
I gasped as one of her hands found my clit.
“We don’t need a closet, we have a bed.” I rolled so she was on top of me so she could ride my thigh the way she liked as she got closer to her peak.
Delirious pleasure rolled over us as we continued to kiss and touch each other. Her hormones and arousal flooded the room, making me work even harder to love her, please her.
Make her shatter.
Fiona came apart in my arms, the love and pleasure so fierce through the bond that I came as well.
I stroked her hair and kissed her. “I love you, Mo Stóirín.”
Yes, tonight she was all mine. The guys could have her another day.

My phone rang as I loaded the dishes into the dishwasher.Anita. My heart sped. I’d left her and my mom messages, like Dusty’s moms had instructed. But I hadn’t expected a call back so soon.
“It’s Anita,” I said to Hale and Dusty as we cleaned up the kitchen. The ladies had gone downstairs.
“You have to answer it,” Dusty said.
“I know.” I accepted the call. “Hi, Anita. Happy New Year. It’s a little late where you are, isn’t it?” Not that I knew where she was. But it was latehere.
“It is. Happy New Year to you, too. We’ve crossed back into cell reception. You know, it's difficult to sleep when your phone won’t stop giving you notifications,” she said, the connection not great. “Is there anything you want to tell me?”
“I mean, I did leave you a message to call me.” My stomach twisted.
“I know. I’ve also gotten some very interesting messages from my manager. I can't download any of the videos, though. You and Dusty had an amazing time at the rave, I take it?” There was no judgement in her voice, but then she knew me and Dusty.
