I tried to squeeze my thighs together tightly, but he hooked his legs around my ankles, preventing me from closing them. I was suddenly in a precarious position, spread open, perched on his lap. He put his nose in the crook of my neck and breathed my scent in deeply.
“Fuck, you smell so good,” he said, his voice dark with lust.
His praise did something to my body. I could already feel myself getting wet between my legs. He sucked, kissed, and nipped at my neck, sending shivers straight to my core. For a moment, I lost myself in his touch, tilting my head back, giving him better access to my neck, and softly moaning.
A door closed somewhere in the distance, and I froze, snapping my head forward. What was I doing? We were in the middle of a military science laboratory. There were plenty of people who worked here, and just because the hall was empty didn’t mean it would be forever. Plus, Dr. Zolkos and Cade were just on the other side of the door. What if they heard us? I tried to get off his lap, but Ryker pulled me back against his chest.
“Ryker stop! Seriously! Not here! People work here! This is really inappropriate. Someone is going to see us.”
“Did you forget alphas have heightened hearing? I will know when someone is coming from a mile away. I can hear theirfootsteps. If you’re worried about Cade and Dr. Creep, I can also hear every word they’re saying. No one’s going to catch us. I won’t let them. I don’t want anyone fucking looking at you like this. This is ours,” he said possessively.
As he was talking, he slid his hands around my waist, slipping beneath my sweater and tracing the band of my jeans. When his hand got to the button, he quickly undid it and said, “Oops!”
I bit my lip hard, trying to break whatever spell Ryker had cast over me that was actually making me consider letting him do what he wanted to me in the middle of a public place. While I was deliberating, his hand was sliding lower and lower into my jeans. He hit the band of my underwear and waited. I squirmed in his hold, frustrated that he had stopped moving and made a little whimper noise.
“I knew you wanted to play, Kitten. Relax and lean back against me. I’ll be quick, and I’ll tell you if someone’s coming. Let me play with your pretty pussy. Cade said he’s going to be in there for a while, and you know I get bored so easily.”
His hand slipped under the lace of my underwear, and I tried to stifle my gasp when it brushed my soaking wet folds. I knew I had to be quiet because if Ryker could hear Cade, that meant Cade could hear us. Had he already been listening, and did he know what we were doing?
Ryker’s finger slipped inside of me and his other hand moved up my torso, lingering at certain stops along the way. He squeezed my hips, traced little circles around my belly button, and finally ended at my breast, grabbing a fistful.
“Your pussy is so wet, and your body is so soft and perfect. Did you like coming on Cade’s cock last night? I could hear how soaked your pussy was from the next room. How did it feel whenhe stretched you?” Ryker said, his dirty words heightening my arousal.
I couldn’t stop imagining him strewn out on his bed, angrily masterbating, while listening to Cade and me having sex. I enjoyed thinking about him hearing me moan, wanting me, but unable to have me. Eager to climax, I lost myself in that image of him. A horny Ryker, frustrated, voyeuristic, and pining for me. I imagined his abs glistening with sweat, muscles bunching with tension, as he gripped his shaft, stroking up and down in feral lust.
He pinched my nipples and whispered dirty questions into my ear about my night with Cade.
Did I like Cade’s big cock?
Did I want to choke on it while Ryker fucked me from behind?
His words were downright filthy, and I loved it.
I started panting, trying to hold back theOh Godthat was on the tip of my tongue as I felt my orgasm crest, but just as it was building, Ryker withdrew his hand and swiftly buttoned my jeans, whispering, “Someone’s coming.”
I jumped up quickly, just in time as Dr. Zolkos opened the door. Embarrassment stained my cheeks, despite the scientist seeming relatively unaware of our recent activities. I felt painfully aroused; there would be no way to hide it from Cade, who was probably well aware already.
“You are both needed inside. I will be by again in a bit to check on progress. There’s a red call button in the observation room if you need assistance,” Dr. Zolkos said, holding the door open for us.
We passed him as we entered the room. I could feel his empty eyes tracking me. I breathed a sigh of relief when he exited and closed the door behind him. His presence was unnerving. Although I was grateful to be out of his sight, I briefly wondered why he wasn't coming in. I thought we had to do some tests with Talon?
It was dark in the room, so my eyes took a moment to adjust. Ryker was crowding my space, pushing up against my back and butt, holding my hips, keeping me from being able to douse the fire that he had stoked in me. I needed him either to back up and give me air, or to finish what he had started in the hallway immediately.
I surveyed the area, realizing what Dr. Zolkos meant by “observation room.” It was a small, dark space, with a few chairs. The only light was coming from a huge glass window that took up an entire half-wall. Beneath the window was a control panel, with a microphone to communicate with the other side of the glass and a bunch of blinking red and green buttons.
Cade stood near the microphone, arms crossed. It was too dark to see his expression, but I could see the outline of his tented pants in his silhouette. It was obvious that he had been listening to Ryker and I in the hallway.
I looked past him, through the glass. It was another small room, relatively the same size as the one we were standing in. As I got closer, I could see a medical bed in the center, with a man lying on top wearing nothing but a pair of grey sweatpants. My guess was that he was our other packmate.
“This is Talon, Rowan. I told you he’s a shifter. He has been undergoing a few tests and working with Dr. Zolkos to develop a new sedative. It seems your omega scent has affected his shifting abilities, unusually. We would like to test the newly formulatedmedical sedative and will need you to enter the room and spend some time in an airtight space with him to know if it works properly.”
“So you're just going to throw me in a glass box with someone, who almost killed a nurse by the way, and hope it works?! I’m scared. He looks… dangerous. I’ve never met a shifter. What if he hurts me?”
“He is dangerous. We all are. Just not to you. Talon won’t hurt you. Ryker is going to go inside with you as well, and I will wait right here, just outside of the door. You have nothing to worry about. You are safe,” Cade assured me.
I narrowed my eyes at him.
“How long do I have to stay in there with him?”
