Sincerely, Pack Pucked: Chapter 48

“Promise me you’ll text regularly, even if I’m not lucid,” I said as I checked one of the diaper bags for the hundredth time.

“I will text you regularly. I’m in a group chat with you and your pack. They will get regular updates,” my mother reassured me as she rocked Maggie in her arms.

“And if you need anything⁠—”

“Mable!” my mother said firmly but lovingly. “I have raised a baby before. I think I can handle looking after my granddaughter for a few days. If I need anything, we will simply go to the store.” She looked down at Maggie with a smile.

“Come on, sweetness,” Saint said softly, wrapping an arm around me from behind.

My eyes started to water as I turned to my mate. My entire pack surrounded me, knowing that I wasn’t the most stable emotionally. My heat was going to hit in full force any minute. The cramps had been slowly getting worse all day, so before I became a mess and couldn’t think straight, my mother had come over to wisely kidnap my daughter for a grandmother-granddaughter visit.

When she had offered to take Maggie during our heat, the guys had decided to go over to her place and build a nursery. My mother had attempted to help them pay for it, but they had staunchly refused.

Turning back to her, I gave Maggie a quick kiss on the head. She was fast asleep and didn’t even realize I was having an emotional breakdown. This was the first time I was leaving her with someone who wasn’t one of her “daddies.” The anxiety and guilt were swirling through me, but how exactly was I supposed to take care of an infant when I was so out of it?

It really did take a village to raise a kid, and I needed to remind myself that it was okay to rely on them sometimes.

As soon as Mom and Maggie were out the door, I was swept into the arms of my pack mates, pulling me into their embraces. They all knew I was freaking out about this, and their proximity comforted me some.

“Come on, let’s get you in the tub. That’ll help relax you,” Devin said as he brushed away my tears. “Hot, steamy water. Good for cramps and stress relief.”

I smiled. The guys were getting very good at this “caring for their omega” thing, picking up on all the little signs when I wasn’t feeling good. He led me toward the main bathroom, where Jasper was already filling the tub.

“Hey, Maple girl,” he greeted warmly, kissing the top of my head as he passed me. “Have a good bath with Devin. I’m going to go help Percy prep food for the week.” He kissed me again, all soft and sweet, but it was enough to make me squirm. The cramps were slowly increasing in intensity, and I could tell it wouldn’t be long before I was lost to my heat.

Eventually, all the guys would be around me, our bodies a tangle of limbs, but they’d also asked for some one-on-one time with me during the heat, and I was happy to oblige.

“Come here, princess.” Devin reached out a hand, and I went to him where he stood by the tub. “Let’s get you out of those clothes.”

There was no mistaking the gleam of excitement in his eyes, and I smiled despite my fading nervousness. Stepping up to Devin, I leaned up on my tiptoes to brush a kiss over his lips, and his hands went to my waist, pulling me against him.

“Help me?” I raised my brows, gesturing down to my clothes.

“Oh, princess, you’ll never need to ask twice if you want me to get you naked.”

As much as Devin’s interest in me wasn’t new, it still felt remarkable to be under his hungry gaze. I was wanted and that made my excited nerves tingle all the more. He gripped the bottom of my shirt and pulled it over my head. My hair fluffed around me, and as soon as I was topless, Devin leaned down and kissed my breast.

The sensation was wild. I was so used to feeding a baby that the intimate touch sent a thrill down my spine.

Devin straightened, grinning down at me. “You are so beautiful.”

I smirked. “You just like that my boobs are bigger.”

“I like you”—Devin gripped my chin in his fingers—“no matter what size your boobs are. You’re always gorgeous.”

Well, damn if that didn’t make me feel like a million bucks. Beaming up at him, I allowed Devin to get me free of my leggings and panties before helping him to get naked too. He stepped into the tub, an erection already growing, and held out a hand for me to join him in the water. I got in after him, and as he sat comfortably at the back, I took my place in front of him between his legs.

It’s a good thing this bathtub is huge.

“Did you really call first dibs on my heat?” I asked, leaning back against his chest.

Behind me, Devin chuckled, his chest moving under me. “Jasper and I may have made the point that the others got you during your last heat and that we wanted to be selfish bastards for a bit. It seemed only fair.”

I giggled, shaking my head but hardly able to come up with an argument against that. “I think you’ve more than made up for it after everything you’ve done recently.”

“Nah.” I turned around to see Devin shaking his head, playfully eyeing me. “But I will over the next few days.”

As I took in that mischievous look in his eyes, a wave of intensity hit me, my insides cramping the hardest they had yet. It was starting, and as much as I had my alphas to care for me, I still wasn’t looking forward to this. Well, not all of it, anyway.

“Mable?” Devin asked gently, and I dropped my head to his chest.

My scent was flaring so strongly that even I was aware of it. Devin responded immediately, of course, his hands landing on my face as he pulled me up for a kiss. The feeling of his velvety lips against mine sent me spinning, and my body began to ache with the need to be filled. Even in the bath, slick pooled in my core and slid between my thighs. This was my first heat since having Maggie, and I could already tell that it was going to be an intense one.

“Touch me. Please, Devin. It’s starting and⁠—”

He cut off my words with a kiss, and I melted into it, so lost to the sensations that I almost missed the way he switched positions with me so that I was on my back. The porcelain of the tub still felt cool against my skin, even though Devin had been leaning on it. I was boiling.

Leaning back a touch, Devin whispered against my lips. “Do you need more, princess?” His hands roamed down my body, one taking my breast while the other progressed to the juncture of my legs. “Here?”

Arousal hit me like lightning, and I ignited under the crack of energy. I nodded frantically against his lips as Devin kissed me once more, reaching down to press his hand to my pussy. Heats always made me so much more desperate. Even with the water surrounding me, I was slippery from the slick coating me, and Devin eagerly slipped a finger between my folds.

“Ugh!” I cried out. I was unbelievably sensitive. Even more than usual.

Dang, post-pregnancy heats are no joke.

“That’s my sweet girl. Let me help you.”

Devin’s fingers slid across my aching pussy, finding my clit and dipping inside. The cramps were strong, but they faded to a dull roar as the arousal and pleasure soared higher with each moment. I rocked my hips against his hand, clinging to his arm like if I let go I’d be transferred to some horrible reality where the pleasure stopped. I needed it. I needed it like I needed air, and the world grew fuzzy at the edges.

I was definitely not as lucid anymore, solely focused on getting what I required to make the cramps back off, to orgasm hard because it was necessary to my entire life right now.

“More. Please, I need more. Now.”

My voice was this drunk-sounding beg, and I could smell Devin’s applewood scent flaring so intensely that it was almost a match for mine. He smiled as he drove his fingers inside me, looking down at me as I pleaded for relief.

“Anything, princess. I’ve got you.”

Leaning down, he took my nipple in his mouth, sucking lightly and nibbling at the oversensitive flesh. I abruptly arched beneath him, basically fucking his fingers as the climax drew closer. I was right there. Just a little more…

“Come for me, Mable. Let me feel you soak my fingers.”

That did it. I launched over the edge, coming undone as the orgasm powered through me like a bullet. The world crystallized around me as the pleasure cleared some of the haze away, and I looked around the bathtub. We couldn’t stay in here. The heat was too intense now. I was going to need Devin’s knot in moments.

“That’s so good, princess. Goddamn, I can’t wait to bond you during this heat, precious. Fuck, I’m ravenous for you.”

We’d talked about Devin bonding me first, then the others, but in the chaos of these first cramps, I’d forgotten about it. Hearing how worked up he was, seeing how Devin was practically salivating, went straight to my core, my body ramping up again.

I want that. God, I want that so freaking much.

“Come on. Let’s get you to the bedroom,” Devin said, reading my mind and brushing the hair out of my face.

But I shook my head, my legs refusing to listen to me. “No, no bones. No moving. Can’t do it.”

Devin chuckled, scooping me up out of the tub and wrapping a large fluffy towel around me. I really needed to find out how their housekeeper managed to keep them so darn fluffy—mine all lost their fluff after the first wash. Regardless, I burrowed into the fabric, grounding myself in the feeling of the softness against my skin.

I was pulled out of my laundry daydreams by Jasper bounding into the bathroom, a grin plastered on his face as he scooped me up, towel and all, taking me back to the bedroom.

“What do you want, Maple girl?” he asked.

“Nest,” I said, nodding seriously, but then his scent struck me, mingling with Devin’s, and my body responded by simultaneously cramping and pooling with renewed slick. “Then knot!”

“Well, luckily for you, I can provide both!” he declared, knee-walking onto the nest, me still in his arms. “I love you so much.”

“I love you, too.” I smiled.

“I can’t wait to be officially bonded,” he said. “Since I’m your favorite, can I bite you first?”

“Keep calling yourself the favorite, and I’ll bite you. On the ass.” I chuckled lightly.

“That’s the opposite of a threat!” Jasper laughed, laying me among the blankets, but then he was quickly shoved away, Devin shaking his head as he rolled his eyes.

“You’re not stealing this from me. Mable is all mine first. You can help.”

“Hey.” Jasper shrugged, that darn grin lighting up his face. “If it means getting even a small taste of Mable, I’m in.”

Lying against the blankets, I looked up at my two alphas, who were so wildly different from each other, and I couldn’t help but smile. This was the best thing about having a support system there for you. My heat, while intense, wasn’t accompanied by the fear and anxiety over having to ride it out alone. I had them.

“Well, are you going to—” My words were stolen by a sharp cramp that cut through me, as if to say enough chit-chat, and I blindly reached for the alpha in front of me and yanked him down to my lips.

Devin kissed me back like he had something to prove, or he was just as desperate for me as I was him, and the pain blended with the renewed pleasure that coiled through me. With my eyes still closed, I felt the bed move as the signal that Jasper was coming over. The mattress dipped right next to me and then a hand smoothed between Devin and me as he gripped my breast, rubbing my nipple with his thumb.

I cried out against Devin’s mouth. “Ugh! Oh, god, I’m so…mmmm…sensitive.”

Jasper chuckled in my ear. “Good to know, Maple girl.”

Another cramp tried to flare, but Jasper rolled my nipple between his finger and thumb, and I reeled, my head falling back as the nerves sent a bright signal to my brain. The pleasure was so intense, the way he and Devin were touching me was so incredible, so unlike the constant touches of motherhood.

It had become so easy to be touch-avoidant when a baby was clinging to you all the time, and I knew the guys had noticed. They had been sweet about it, understanding at every turn. But I felt like me again. I felt like Mable, and this omega part of me was so ravenous for my alphas that everything else faded into the background.

“Please…I need…Oh god…” I was rambling, and I didn’t even know what I was begging for. I wanted more from them and was achingly desperate for it.

“Lean back, princess. We’ve got you.” Devin’s voice was thick with the growl he was trying to keep at bay. I loved how hard he was fighting to be gentle with me, a sign of how much he cared, but right now, I wasn’t some delicate, wilting flower. I was nearly feral as the heat washed over me, stronger again.

When I cracked my lids, I saw Devin sliding lower onto the bed, and then he threw my legs over his shoulders as he kissed up the inside of my thigh. I grabbed his head, pushing him where I wanted him. Patience was not an option right now.

He chuckled against my skin but quickly took the hint and began to lap up the slick trailing down my skin before plunging his tongue into my pussy. I bucked, the sensations even more intense now, and Jasper tilted my head toward him, kissing me as his fingers toyed with my nipple.

Oh, hell. Yeah, this was exactly what I needed.

“Hmmm,” Devin hummed against my clit, the vibrations making my toes curl, “you taste so damn good, princess. I’ve missed this so much.”

My elation was colored with a hint of embarrassment. It couldn’t ruin things, though. This was too perfect, and I rubbed myself against Devin’s mouth, needing more friction. He reached up, sliding two fingers into my pussy as he flicked my clit with his tongue.

“Yes!” Jasper chuckled as I gasped out the scream before yanking my mouth back to his. I sucked on his tongue when it swirled past mine, and he pinched my nipple playfully.

“Mmm.” Jasper leaned back, his grin megawatt and sparkling. “Feel like sucking on something else?”

My pussy clamped down as I registered what he was asking, and I nodded frantically. Yes, the taste of him would be so perfect. I needed that.

“Yesss,” I moaned as I reached for his sweats and shoved them down far enough that his cock sprang free. “Need to taste you.”

“I’m at your command, gorgeous.” Jasper settled on his knees, positioning the head of his erection in front of my mouth.

I licked my lips, admiring the bead of arousal that clung to his tip. I swiped it away with my tongue before taking Jasper’s entire head in my mouth, sucking gently. He groaned above me, his fingers threading through my hair. He tugged softly on the roots, slowly moving his hips to drive his cock in and out of my mouth.

Pleasure swirled, the discomfort of my heat fading into the background as my two alphas tended to me. Devin’s tongue and perfect sucking motions had me raging up right to the edge of a release, and Jasper’s taste made that arousal pound harder. When he groaned above me, I felt so good to be pleasing him like this.

“Damn, Maple girl, you’re so good.” Jasper’s words were a raspy plea, and even more of that pride swelled through me. It felt pretty darn amazing to be taking care of him as much as they were all taking care of me.

Then lightning struck through my clit as Devin flicked it hard and rhythmically, his fingers curling up into that perfect spot. Just a few more seconds, and I was coming, slick pouring from me as the climax claimed me so profoundly.

“Ugh!” The need that followed the release was intense. I needed their knots. “Knots! Now!”

“As you wish, princess.”

Devin wasted no time crawling up my body, getting between my legs, and seating his erection at my seam. I was so ready for him, aching to be full so that the blistering need would be satisfied. I watched him gripping his base, the sight driving me wild, and then he pressed in. The wonderful heat and stretch eased that ache deep in my belly, and I moaned loudly.

“Oh crap…ugh, yes, yes.” I reached blindly behind me for Jasper. “You too. Now.”

“Fuck, Maple girl, are you sure? I didn’t even⁠—”

“Now, Jasper.” I clawed at his side, pulling him close behind me so that his erection brushed my ass. “I’m so wet. Use it.”

Jasper’s scent bloomed even stronger, his shaft twitching against me where it pressed between my cheeks. He needed this as much as I did, it seemed. Reaching between my legs from behind, Jasper toyed with my pussy as Devin slowly rocked in and out. The sensations made my vision white out, then I felt Jasper’s fingers massaging my slick into my tighter hole.

Holy shit…

“Yes, yes, yes! Please! I need you both right now!”

I barely registered movement as I was jostled around to make room for both Devin and Jasper, but then another lightning bolt of need kicked off right as Jasper was slowly sheathing himself inside me. I was so very full, everything stretching, and I wanted more.

“Goddamn, princess. You feel like heaven. So tight and full. God, I love you.”

My heart soared as my pussy clamped down. This was what I’d always dreamed about, having a pack of my own who loved me and would be there for me.

“I love you too. Now, knot me already.”

A cramp tried to push through the pleasure, but Devin chuckled just as he sank himself deeper, his knot coming to my entrance. He pistoned his hips back and forth, alternating with Jasper’s thrusts, and my head completely emptied. It was beyond good or great. It was everything.

And then, gradually, Devin’s knot pushed inside me. “Ahh!”

The stretch was so intense, particularly with how full I was, my alphas’ cocks buried in my holes, but damn, it felt incredible.

Time blurred as Jasper and Devin made love to me, answering the call of this extreme heat. I crested up that mountain again, all pain gone as my body soared high on the sensations. I was going to come again.

“I’m so close! Please!”

My alphas moved quicker, their thrusts purposeful and pointed, and Jasper’s warm knot pressed against the tight ring of muscle, which slowly, so very slowly, stretched around it. They both knotted me, and that was more than enough for me to careen over the edge into bliss territory.

“Princess,” Devin said on a groan. “The way you feel around me.”

I was too gone to respond.

Jasper nuzzled into my neck. “So. Damn. Good.”

And then warmth surged through me, eliciting another orgasm as both my mates filled me up until I was dripping with our combined arousal.

“Oh!”

“That’s my princess. Ugh, yes, love. Feel me breed you.” Devin’s hips jerked as the last of his release rushed through him. “I’m going to see you all round and beautiful with my baby.”

Everything felt so wonderful. I was lost to it as he nuzzled into my neck. Devin had mentioned wanting another baby, about wanting it to be his, and as much as this would be very fast if I did get pregnant, I couldn’t say I was all that upset by the idea.

“You’re mine.” Devin’s voice was all growls, and then he was sinking his teeth into my neck, bonding with me fully.

I cried out, the rush of endorphins and hormones surging through me. I could feel him so profoundly, and before I could even comprehend how incredible it was, Jasper bit into the other side of my throat.

It was overwhelming and incredible. I’d always felt so connected to them, but now it was this solid thing that I could grasp in my hands. I felt them.

After a moment, they released me and the frenzy calmed.

“Hmm…” It was all I could say.

Still, even though I was completely blissed out, the noise behind me made me turn my head, a smile spreading across my face when I saw that Saint and Percy had entered the room, watching from the far wall with hungry expressions on their faces.

I should have been too tired to continue. I’d just had several amazing orgasms and my body felt like Jell-O, but one look at them, and my stomach was cramping violently again, a fresh wave of perfume hitting the air.

“Still want us, sweetness?” Saint asked with a smirk.

“Always,” I said, my voice strangled as I held out a hand toward them. “Now, get over here.”
