Chapter 80

**Luna**


Seeing the stage that the guys will be performing on was amazing. It also made me wonder about what the stage would have been like if Bailey and I had made it to the concert that night. I try to push that night out of my mind and focus on the excitement of the tour. This would be my first time traveling...well, anywhere, so I am beyond excited.

I had been a little concerned about my heat that seems to have a mind of its own. it is kind of like a simmering ache but nothing uncomfortable. That is until one of the guys gets me worked up and then it's like my whole body lights on fire and I lose all sense. I can not remember if it was meant to be this way, but I am starting to think there was so much about being an Omega that we weren't told. The real question is why?

I thought about this a lot on the drive home and even Kai holding my hand couldn't pull me from my thoughts. Memories of our lessons at Haven are flooding through my mind. They spoke of how important Omegas were for a pack to feel complete, and that it was an honor. Because Omegas are so rare the pack would treat us like a treasure and spoil us in every way. Also, our role of being an Omega was to please our Alphas in any way they wish since those in the pack would not stray once bonded to the Omega.

When the time was right it would be our responsibility to provide children and care for them exclusively. The Alphas are not expected to take part in raising the children if they do not wish to. I think this is because most Alphas are too busy providing for the pack to make time to take care of children. I have always seen being Omega as an inevitable responsibility and did not expect to have any real feelings or connection to the pack that picked me. The Omegas who would visit would smile and gush about how spoiled they were and how well their pack treated them. They hardly if ever spoke about love or anything beyond the biological need to bond.

So for a long time, I assumed that was what I should expect. Now that I have been here with the guys I can not imagine choosing a pack wiht out feeling that connection to them. The feeling of rightness the moment you meet. The moment I saw the guys and picked up their scent I knew, and there was a pull to them I wouldn't have been able to ignore. That thought has me turning to look at Kai and as if sensing my attention on him he turns to look at me.

I gave him a shy smile that he quickly returns before releasing my hand and wrapping his arm around me.

Even though I have been feeling shy and unsure around them it felt normal for them to touch me. They were essentially strangers but it didn't feel that way. Especially now that I have bonded with Milo and Bennett, I feel more relaxed with the guys like we have been together for a lot longer than we have. Thinking of the bond has them flaring to life in response to my sudden emotions. Bennett's bond is happy and content, but Milo feels like contentment wiht a hint of lust.

Milo is surprising me with how heated he can become. My face heats at the memories of our time together and I squeeze my legs together to ease the phantom feelings the memories invoke. Being bonded has apparently made me a bit...thirsty. Physically thirsty.

Kai must pick up the slight change in me because soon he is leaning down and nuzzling his face against my neck. That only makes the sensations I was already feeling flare up even more, and my blood starts to warm. I can't seem to stop my reaction to him and I bend my head to give him better access to my throat. His lips leave feather kisses against my skin and when his lips brush over one of my marks I shudder.

My eyes fall shut and I let my mind go blank. All I can think about is how Kai's lips feel against my heating skin. He was triggering my heat and the urge to climb into my nest with him was growing by the second.



**Kai**


Luna's scent had suddenly heightened as we drove home, and since my mind has been on nothing but getting her alone, I reacted instantly. I had the urge to breathe in as much of her scent as possible. I lowered my head and brushed my nose along her skin and a small gasp escaped her when I pressed the first of many kisses against her skin. I watched her eyes fall shut and she leaned her head to the side giving me more access to her neck.

My eyes caught sight of one of her new marks and a bit of jealousy rushed through me that it wasn't mine. So to mess with one of my pack brothers I left a small bit of my scent over the mark. That small touch on the mark made Luna's whole body shake and her scent started to get stronger.

"Shit." I hear someone say. "What the hell are you doing to her Kai?"

I look up to see Rowan looking back at us from the front passenger seat. His hands are holding tightly to the armrest and his knuckles are turning white.

"He's triggering her heat again. It seems to only flare up when she is...stimulated in some way. I felt a hint of something before Kai started on her. Now she is...very turned on." Milo explains and I release a weak chuckle.

Luna's scent is starting to make my head spin a little. I can't resist not being closer to her again, but holding her against the side of me isn't enough anymore. We need to get home fast.

"Chill out Kai, you are going to drive us all crazy if you keep this up." Rowan's voice sounds pained now a low growl from behind us tells me Declan is struggling as well.

It takes a great deal of effort but I tap down my urge to have Luna here and now. Her scent starts to settle a little as well when I stop my ministrations.

"I am warning all of you now. I am not sharing." I say with a good amount of heat in my warning. "You all have had time with her, so this is just going to be me and her."

"If that is what she wants Kai. Remember that." Rowan warns but when I glance down at Luna I know there will be no problem there.

She is fidgeting and flushed.

"We'll order some food. She will need to eat more if we are going to be keeping her in her nest all the time." Bennett points out wiht a bit of humor.

Luna has lit a fire under us, and we are starving for her time. Her bonding to Milo seems to be making the urge in the rest of us a hundred times worse.

"Once things settle down with her heat we may be able to control ourselves better," Rowan says but Milo shakes his head.

"I thought bonding wiht her wouldn't change things, but I want her even more now. More than I have ever wanted anyone. It's like an itch under my skin that only goes away when she is touching me." He explains and we all look to one another.

That sounds like torture. A good kind but still distracting I'm guessing.

"That will make it hard to be away from her." Rowan muses.

"She won't ever be far away from us, so it won't be too much of a problem. As long as we all spend time wiht her we can probably get used to it over time." Bennett adds.

"Once we are all bonded we may have to get used to squeezing into the nest most nights." Milo goes on.

"Fine as long as no one cuddles against me. I won't hesitate to kick your asses." Declan grumbles and we all laugh.

"We can all keep our hands to ourselves don't worry. We could maybe get a bigger bed, that would help." I suggest.

"Yeah, but we would have to redesign the nest a little since it's a smaller room," Milo says with consideration. "We made the nest from a website reference, how about we ask Luna what she wants to do with the room?"

"Good idea." Rowan agrees with a nod.

"Since Kai is claiming time wiht luna, the rest of us should sit down and watch a few of those sign language videos I mentioned before. Even if you guys can pick up a few basic things it would let you speak to Luna directly." Milo suggests.

"I agree. I don't like that barrier between us, and I would like to be able to talk to her when we are alone." Bennett says and the others chime in wiht their agreements.

"Sounds like a plan. See you guys later!" I say as we pull into the driveway.

I don't waste any time climbing out of the car and tugging Luna inside with me.
